"By the way, I brought you a gift, wait, I'll pick it up", Masaki patted his head and remembered something, took the car keys and walked to the door, there were already a few seven or eight-year-old children squatting on the ground in new clothes at the door to pick up firecrackers that were not set off last night, and they looked at him with some curiosity when they saw Masaki come out.

Masaki smiled at the children, walked over to the Humvee, opened the trunk of the car and took out a box under the surprised eyes of the children.

"Masaki, is that you?" a voice came from the side of the car.

Zhengji Xunsheng saw the person coming, and said in surprise: "Huzi?" This is one of the few friends of Zhengji in Yuanping, he lived in his grandmother's house when he was a child, and Zhengji often played with the boy with a freckled face in front of him, climbing trees, hunting birds, stealing fruits, and the two of them also had a happy childhood.

"It's really you, Brother Zheng, I didn't see you yesterday, and I said where you went, and when did you come back?" said the boy who was called Huzi and looked at Masaki with a happy face.

"I came back last night, here, Huzi, and then", Masaki took out a box of imported chocolates from the trunk and threw it over.

"What is this?" Huzi asked, taking the box and looking strangely at the beautifully packaged chocolates.

"Chocolate, it tastes good, you taste it"

"Well, Brother Zheng, I haven't seen you for a year, you grow really fast, this is two heads taller than me!" Huzi looked at the chocolate in his hand, didn't want to open it, looked at Zhengji and said.

"Okay, haven't you grown taller too?"

"By the way, Brother Zheng, is this your car?" Huzi looked at the Hummer at the door with envy. Asked skeptically.

"Hmm," Masaki nodded.

"Yes, Brother Zheng, I haven't seen you for a year, you've made a fortune! I've never seen such a big and domineering car, so it must be a lot of money," Huzi touched the headlights.

"It's okay, if you like it, I'll drive you to Shigu Temple for a ride," Masaki said with a smile.

"Really, then I'll just wait, but then again, Brother Zheng, why do I look at you and feel like I've seen it somewhere?" Huzi looked at Masaki's face suspiciously, and inexplicably felt a sense of familiarity, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

"You don't already know me, what's familiar or unfamiliar," Masaki said with a smile.

"No, it's not that familiar, it's just an indescribable feeling anyway", Huzi shook his head, and the doubts in his eyes became more and more obvious.

"Masaki! I'm back for dinner!" came my mother's voice from the courtyard.

Masaki shrugged apologetically, and apologized to Huzi: "My mother called me, so I'll go back first and talk back."

"Well, I'm going back too, remember to look for me when you're done", Huzi nodded.

Zhengji returned to the courtyard with the box, Li Xuemei saw the things in her son's hand, and asked strangely, "What are you holding?"

"It's nothing, buy some gifts for Xiaoyan and Xiaotong", Masaki slowly put the box on the stone table.

"Come, good grandson, grandma has given you New Year's money," At this time, Mrs. Wang, who was wearing a festive red cotton jacket, slowly walked out of the house on crutches, and said lovingly as Zhengji held a red envelope in her hand.

Zhengji's heart warmed, and he hurriedly stepped forward to help his grandmother to the chair, and glanced at the smiling Yan Xiaotong and the two who followed behind his grandmother, both of whom were holding a red envelope in their hands, and looked at him happily.

"Thank you grandma, I kowtow to you for the New Year", Zhengji took it without shirking, in the customs of the village, the old man gave the New Year's money can not be pushed, Zhengji knelt down as he spoke, and respectfully kowtowed to grandma three times.

"Oh, child, what are you doing here, hurry up, it's good to have this heart, you don't need to really come, how cold it is on the ground, grandma is distressed", Mrs. Wang stretched out her hand to help her grandson.

"Why do you only run around in a sweater, what should I do if I catch a cold," Mrs. Wang said with a frown, looking at Zhengji's white sweater.

"It's okay grandma, I'm young, I'm hot, it's better to be cool," Masaki said with a smile.

"Son, try the coat that your mother bought for you, you are not at home, and you don't know if it fits," Li Xuemei took out a gray wool coat from the house.

Masaki nodded and took it, and put it on his body, not big, not too small, very suitable.

"Well, yes, yes, it seems that Mom's vision is still very good", Li Xuemei said happily looking at her son's sleeve-length figure.

"Come, Xiaoyan, Xiaotong, this is the New Year's money that my uncle prepared for you, take it quickly", Zheng Xueping took out two thick red envelopes from his arms and handed them to the sisters.

"Thank you, uncle", Xiaoyan and Xiaotong happily took it, quietly opened it and took a look, and then they were stunned, inside the red envelope was a thick stack of green old man's heads, not to mention taking it, they had never seen so much money.

"Uncle, this seems to be a bit much," Xiaoyan said as she bit her lip and looked at Zheng Xueping.

"How much, you don't dare to accept it", Zheng Xueyi walked over with a smile and said to his daughter, and then saw the ripped open red envelope in Xiaoyan's hand, and the whole person was stunned.

"Xueping, you have too much, there is always 10,000 yuan, she is a child, where did she use so much money", Zheng Xueyi's face changed, he looked at his younger brother and said, you must know that his family's annual income this year is only 5,000 yuan, and his younger brother is actually 20,000 yuan as soon as he makes a move.

"Brother, it's okay, this is some of my thoughts, let the child accept it, you know this year, it's different from previous years!" Zheng Xueping shook his head and said.

"Alas, how can you embarrass me to give Zhengji", Zheng Xueyi looked at the red envelope of 500 yuan in his hand, this year's nephew is out of luck, a few years ago it was only a hundred, and a few years ago it was only 500, which was originally a lot, but I didn't expect Xueping to give 10,000 yuan to each of the two children!

"Uncle, you're not reluctant, I've been looking forward to your red envelope for a long time!, get it", at this time, Zhengji ran forward with a smile, snatched the red envelope from his uncle's hand, said with a smile, and put it in his pocket without looking at it.

"This kid is getting more and more skinny, there aren't many uncle's red envelopes, it's good if you don't dislike it", Zheng Xueyi looked at his nephew and said with a smile, he knew that the child was giving him a step.

"No matter how much, it's the intention of the elders, what does he have to dislike, the important thing is this color, brother, you are too worried", Li Xuemei explained with a smile.

"Xuemei is right," Mrs. Wang also watched this harmonious scene happily on the side.

"By the way, uncle, I brought you some gifts, see if you like it?" Masaki remembered the box on the table and walked over to unpack it.

"I'll see what good things my nephew brought us back?" Zheng Xueyi walked to Zhengji's side with a smile, and then was stunned when he saw the contents of the box, and said with some hesitation: "This is a mobile phone?"

"Well, I thought that in the future, in order to make it easier for us to get in touch, I bought a few more mobile phones and came back, grandma, uncle and aunt, and Xiaoyan Xiaotong alone", Zhengji took out the Nokia mobile phone with a smile, handed it to Zheng Xueyi, and took out a few others and handed them to his cousin.

"This is a mobile phone, you kid, this thing must be very expensive, it's actually enough to have a landline at home, what are you buying this for", Zheng Xueyi looked at the mobile phone packaging box, frowned and said, he knew that this thing was worth a lot, he once wanted to buy one, but he was scared back by the price of thousands of yuan, but he didn't expect that now his nephew helped him buy one.

"It's okay, isn't it convenient? In the future, Xiaoyan and Xiaotong will go to school, and they can contact each other at any time if they have anything," Masaki smiled and helped his cousin unpack.

The two sisters looked at the small mobile phone in their hands with an excited face, in this era, mobile phones can be said to be a luxury for them, and the people who use mobile phones in the village are even rarer, and the sisters have only heard of this advanced electronic product, but they have never seen it much, let alone hold it with their own hands.

Zhengji took out the mobile phone card to help them put it into the mobile phone, and taught everyone how to use it hand in hand, and soon, the Xiaotong sisters learned, made the first call to Zhengji, and listened to the ringing of the mobile phone, the two cheered happily, and Zhengxueping also saved the mobile phone number and the brother and sister-in-law.

"Child, grandma is old, you can't use it for grandma, you can keep it", Mrs. Wang looked at the novelty in her phone and said to Zhengji with a smile.

"It's okay grandma, you can always learn, if you miss me in the future, you can chat with me directly with your mobile phone", Masaki stepped forward and squatted down to teach grandma.

"Sister, we're here for you to pay New Year's greetings!" A voice at the door attracted everyone's attention, but it was the second uncle's family who walked in happily, followed by several men and women, and a few children, all of whom were relatives of the second uncle's side, everyone looked at Zhengji curiously, and must have learned the identity and deeds of Zhengji from the mouth of the second uncle.

"Second Uncle has a good New Year," Zheng Xueyi carefully put the mobile phone in his pocket, greeted him with a smile, and Zhengji and several people also walked over.

"Come, sit at home", several people welcomed the second uncle's family into the house, and put the melon and fruit snacks that had been prepared on the coffee table.

"Time flies so fast, sister, in a blink of an eye, the grandchildren have grown up, and this kid Zhengji is also so good now, even Xiaoyan Xiaotong will be looking for a partner in a few years," the second uncle smiled and took the cigarette handed over by Zhengxueping and took two puffs and said.

"Yes, brother, why not your family? The children have grown up, and we are all old, and I am now waiting to see that one day my grandchildren will have a good home, and I will be relieved", Mrs. Wang took Zhengji's hand and said with emotion, the old man as a traditional rural person, there is still some patriarchal thinking in his views, and he is worried about Zhengji, the only third-generation boy of the political family.
