Woken up by the noise outside the door, Jiang Yizhou woke up from the bed and looked at the watch placed next to the bed, half past seven.

A little helpless to get up and brush his teeth and wash his face, Jiang Yizhou complained about why someone came to pay New Year's greetings so early.

Unlike the future, the current New Year's flavor is still quite sufficient, not to mention that there is nothing to do, except for playing cards, gambling and the like, the management is not strict, everyone has the mentality of playing a game, anyway, they are relatives and friends, and if they lose, they should be given red envelopes.

Every New Year, there will be a lot of blood, this is Jiang Yizhou's understanding of the New Year, whether others accept your kindness or not, but whether it is a gift, or a table of good dishes to invite guests to visit the New Year, it can't be shabby, the so-called poor want to save face, unless it is really difficult to everyone knows.

Not far in front of Jiang Yizhou's adobe house is a pond, which is quite large, with a radius of sixty or seventy meters, and it can be said that they built around this pond, and the groundwater is also abundant.

Jiang Yizhou was pulled by his father and greeted several elders for ten minutes before he went to the pond with the tooth jar to brush his teeth.

There are too many relatives, and they still live together, Jiang Yizhou doesn't think it's a good thing, I remember that my father told him that the surname Jiang has been here since more than two hundred years ago, and there is a family tree, but it is not here, in the ancestral hall of the neighboring county, they have to start with Jiang Yizhou's grandfather's grandfather, and there are at least two or three children in each generation, although there are many branches that have not been passed down, but there are already a lot.

The two fathers who asked him to call his uncle just now have a relationship with his father who is a grandfather, and he doesn't want to delve into how to call it, he is about to come out of Wufu, and fortunately he lives in a village, and he can still connect with feelings.

Sending away waves of people who came to pay a simple New Year's greeting, the snacks and dried fruits on the platter were also replaced, and the mother beckoned the family to have a simple breakfast, that is, sweet potato porridge, plus some home-made pickles and salted duck eggs, and then set off to the uncle's house.

On the first day of the first month of the first month of the past few years, my father and several brothers brought their families to the uncle's house, and the money for honoring their parents was naturally not less, the old man was not in good health, and the children could not treat the old man badly.

However, my mother often complained, to be precise, I quarreled with Jiang Yizhou and his father last night over how much money to give, that is, the eldest mother always used the money that several other brothers gave to their parents to subsidize their own family, and the lobby brother has already started to build a house, and the ghost knows how the money was deducted.

But the old man is at least fine, but he doesn't see the vegetables on his face, and his clothes are a little old, but he is also diligent in changing and washing, so his mother is just complaining, and he has a few adobe houses, and he can't afford two old people to live.

When they arrived at the uncle's house on the other side of the village, the second uncle and the third uncle had arrived, and the three of them all lived there together, Jiang Maoqiang's family lived here, and the two sisters married outside, and it is estimated that they can come to visit the New Year in the second year of junior high school.

"Boss, you're finally here, we still think you can't come because of something!hahaha!" Second Uncle Jiang Mao patted his father's shoulder in a loud voice.

Jiang Maoqiang's family of four came, and the uncle's house was a little crowded, but fortunately, several children grabbed a lot of candy and snacks together, and took toys to the outside yard to play, while the woman went to the kitchen to help with the work.

In this way, there are two adults in the eldest uncle's family, and one adult in the second uncle's family, and the third uncle...... One single, not married, plus Jiang Yizhou, there are ten people crowded in the hall, this is only three generations of a family, if the grandfather is still alive, every year on the first day of the first month, the son's family and grandson's family go to pay New Year's greetings, and it is estimated that there will be a ten-table banquet to accommodate it.

Several elders were talking, and Jiang Yizhou also stood in a circle with two cousins and an unmarried cousin.

He listened to the people around him chatting about things, constantly comparing the memories in his mind, and was familiar with this period of life without awakening the memories of his previous life, he felt so.

"Yizhou, where did you buy this dress, it's so beautiful? How much does it cost, I also want to buy one!" The eldest (hall) brother Jiang Dehong grabbed the corner of Jiang Yizhou's clothes and pulled him into the topic without speaking.

Their generation is a German generation, but because there are too many people of the same generation around, there are also people who do not choose names according to generation, this is the case with Jiang Yizhou and Jiang Xiaoya, but if you enter the family tree, the name written on it will be Jiang Dezhou.

Jiang Yizhou was stunned for a while, but still told him the truth, "I bought it in the capital, it's more than two hundred, I forgot the specific number!"

This is Ding Zhengnan who accompanied him shopping to buy it, whether it is for the rich lady or Jiang Yizhou who has money in his hands, it is a small amount of money.

The three peers don't believe it very much, it's almost a month's salary, you are so willing to buy this? They don't believe it at all, they just think that Jiang Yizhou is bragging, where should they get the stall goods from, they look very good-looking, maybe how rotten it is!

But the three of them don't have to catch this and not let him go, relatives are the most face-saving, if anyone wants to show off, build up their own building, and become a big boss, you will drive back, more effective than anything, this kind of bragging should be a joke.

"I can see it, you kid doesn't want me to show off too, why are you so stingy!" Jiang Dehong brought it over with a sentence, and the four of them took advantage of the rare opportunity to chat.

Jiang Dehong does a small business in the county, Jiang Yizhou works in the capital, and the second brother Jiang Delin works with his wife in the south, that is, his cousin Jiang Yunyun helps at home, and goes on a blind date every day.

This lunch, the food was not bad, mainly because Jiang Yizhou finally looked like a serious social person, had a job, and also changed his outfit, went to the main table, and in addition to constantly picking up the dishes and serving the dishes.

And his father didn't tell Jiang Yizhou's income, except that he finally gave the old man a red envelope of 1,000 yuan, which surprised the other three brothers a little, and the uncle accepted it for the old man for a while, knowing that it was Jiang Yizhou's intention, he praised him vigorously, and was also curious about how he earned so much money.

When it was time to return, Jiang Yizhou suddenly burst out with a sentence, "Dad, it's better to build the house as soon as possible!"

He also has a little vanity, this feeling of being constrained is really not good, obviously there is no shortage of money at all, in the final analysis, it is what others watch is the real thing, there is a house, a car, and a TV, and others accept it as a matter of course.

It's really boring, Jiang Yizhou is a little nostalgic for the time when he only had to work hard in the company.
