Chapter 059: Chinese New Year
My mother and I went to buy New Year's goods a few more times, but fortunately, we didn't run into Ouyang Mountain again.
Soon it was the thirtieth of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and our whole family happily pasted the couplet, and saw that Aunt Hao's house next door had also been pasted.
I thought to myself, Haoqi's grandmother and grandfather are gone, and Aunt Hao is planning to spend the New Year alone, so lonely. Brother Hao is at my house, I don't know how sad he will be, so I just take Aunt Hao over for the New Year, so as not to make him feel uncomfortable.
After pasting the couplet, I immediately said to my mother: "Mom, Aunt Hao has bought me silver jewelry, you said you want to return the gift, I don't think you want to go back, it's good to invite her to spend the New Year, there are many people." ”
According to the customs of this city, the New Year is a family gathering, which indicates reunion, and it is rare to invite outsiders to celebrate the New Year together.
The mother thought about it for a moment, and the old couple made eye contact and nodded sensibly in agreement.
"Okay, I'll go over and tell her now. If she agrees, we'll celebrate the New Year together. Mother dusted off her body and walked to the door.
Seeing that my mother wanted to go over, Brother Hao whispered to me, "Gentle, you can also go over and have a look." ”
Brother Hao was worried about an accident, so I nodded hurriedly and ran to the entrance: "Mom, I'll go with you." ”
The mother said fondly, "Then go together." ”
We knocked on the door of the opposite house, and Aunt Hao quickly opened it with her clothes dressed.
Her mother hadn't seen her lately, but when she saw her, she immediately noticed a surprising change in her.
"Sister Dong, you have been so well maintained recently, you look much younger, is it because you have eaten Tang monk's meat?"
Dong Xiaoyun also wondered in her heart, she had undergone tremendous changes in her body and mind recently, maybe it was the reason why she put her husband down and relaxed her mentality, but she didn't want to say it.
"Big sister, I recently bought a few sets of high-end cosmetics, maybe my skin has changed after using it."
"Oh, no wonder." The mother believed it, but she didn't dare to ask what kind of cosmetics it was.
The conditions of their own family are not as good as the other party, anyway, it is good if the husband and daughter do not dislike themselves.
"Come into the house and say." Dong Xiaoyun hurriedly let the mother and daughter into the house.
When we entered the house, we saw that the room had changed a lot, and the simple decoration of the room looked neat and spacious.
The old furniture and appliances are gone, and all the furniture and appliances are new.
"Big sister, please take a seat, I'll wash some fruit." Dong Xiaoyun said enthusiastically.
I sat carefully on the sofa and found that the black leather sofa was bouncy and it felt good to be rich. I remembered that my sofa has been used for more than ten years, and some areas have collapsed, and I will speculate in stocks after the year, so that my parents can enjoy it.
"Mom, you sit too." Seeing my mother's envious and complicated eyes, I pulled the corner of my mother's clothes.
The heart said, now that Aunt Hao has money and has begun to enjoy it, my family will also have a lot of money, which will definitely make my parents happy.
The mother sat down cautiously, and her mind changed, the other party has money, is it reckless to invite the other party for the New Year.
At this time, Aunt Hao entered the house with a fruit bowl.
There are very few fresh fruits in the fruit bowl, and the red cherries, pink lychees, and black mangosteens look particularly attractive.
"Taste the fruit, it's all fresh, and it tastes good."
Seeing that the other party not only supplies, but also food was of high grade, the mother regretted that she had come recklessly, and hurriedly said some polite words.
"We don't have anything to do, I heard that you decorated here a few days ago, come and see how the decoration is, it's really good now."
Seeing that my mother didn't mention it and wanted to retreat, I was anxious. Brother Hao was full of joy when he heard it just now, if he couldn't invite him over, he would leave Aunt Hao alone for the New Year, his mood can be imagined.
"Sister......" Sure enough, Brother Hao's nervous pleading voice sounded in my ears.
I mustered up the courage, but my mother didn't say anything, pretended not to see my mother's gestured eyes, and said grinningly: "Aunt Hao, my mother and I came here today to invite you to celebrate the New Year together." ”
Dong Xiaoyun's face flashed with surprise: "Big sister, they all say that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, thank you so much." ”
When my mother saw the changes in her family, she didn't want to mention it, but she didn't expect her daughter to say it, so she could only nod her head in approval, but glared at me fiercely.
"Yes, Sister Dong, don't dislike it, let's have a good time together."
"Okay, I'll finish my stuff and go over in a moment." Aunt Hao happily agreed, and a sparkle appeared in her eyes.
Not long after the two of us came back, we heard someone knocking on the door, and it turned out that Aunt Hao had come with a lot of things.
"Sister Dong, let you celebrate the New Year together, why are you taking so many things?"
"I have money this year, I bought a lot of New Year's goods, and I can't eat them all by myself, so it's delicious for everyone to eat together." Aunt Hao replied with a smile on her face.
As she spoke, she took out the fruits and food in her pocket and sent them to the kitchen naturally.
See palm-length prawns, about half a catty of sea cucumbers, good bird's nests, and a variety of cooked foods and fruits. I almost didn't drool, I wanted to call Hao's mother to eat together, but now it seems that our family has taken a big advantage.
My parents immediately found out about the situation, and Rou Jin hurriedly said: "Aunt Dong, how embarrassing is it that you take so many things." ”
Dong Xiaoyun had a smile on his face, and said open-mindedly and kindly: "After Haoqi's death, your whole family has taken care of me in many ways, and people's hearts are long. Now that my economic conditions have improved, but my family is gone, you can call me over, I am happy in my heart, things are nothing......"
"Aunt Hao, thank you very much!" I say it without shame.
"This kid is polite to me."
A few people worked together, and soon a sumptuous banquet was ready, and two families of four, two ghosts, gathered at the table to eat.
Everyone chatted while eating, and the atmosphere was particularly harmonious.
The two mothers sat together, they were about the same age, but Rou Jin looked older. The father glanced at Aunt Hao and looked at his wife with guilt.
I also made an exception to drink some wine, and my face was delicate, but now it became delicate and delicate, and it looked even more emaciated.
The happiest is Haoqi, from childhood to adulthood, every year during the Chinese New Year, her mother is by her side.
I thought that I would be silently alone with my mother this year, but I didn't expect the two families to celebrate the New Year together.
Dong Xiaoyun's healthy complexion and his sister's ruddy face made him feel extra warm.
He whispered gratefully in my ear, "Thank you, sister. ”
"How are you going to thank me?" I deliberately teased him.
"I will hand over all the money I earn to you, and I will never hide my personal ......," Brother Hao said with a swear.
Just imagine, in today's society, men earn money and say they will hand it in, but many people are disobeying the yang and the yin.
Some men, even after handing them in, are justified in asking for pocket money. As a result, at the end of the month, there was even more pocket money than handed in.
Only Brother Hao did what he said, and all the money earned from stock trading went into my account.
No one dares to compare with me in this regard, and I am quite proud to think of it.
After dinner, we watched the party together and started making dumplings, until the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was eaten in the middle of the night, and Aunt Hao did not go back.
I was drowsy and lay on the couch and closed my eyes.
In a daze, I heard my father whisper to my mother: "Wife, you can also buy some cosmetics and clean up, our family will also have money......
The mother glared at her father dissatisfied, knowing it in her heart, and poked her finger at her husband's head: "Dead old man, that money is reserved for my daughter, unless you can earn a million, I will buy it." ”
I laughed in my heart, I will satisfy the ideal of a million.
P: It's almost the New Year, everyone is happy!
