142 red packets
When he came back from school the next day, Tian Sisi saw Mrs. Zhao making red envelopes at home, there were no ready-made red envelopes to buy at this time, they all bought red paper and cut them by themselves, and then glued them with rice grains or batter.
Mrs. Zhao prepared all one-yuan banknotes, and each red envelope contained two one-yuan bills, a total of four red envelopes, which were spread out and placed on the table.
"Niangniang, what are you doing with red envelopes? Is there anyone in the village who wants to make a wedding wine? Tian Sisi asked curiously.
"Isn't it your uncle Chunsheng marrying a daughter-in-law, tonight we are all going to eat happy wine, and we will be happy, and Ah Nan wants to eat more." Mrs. Zhao put away the four red envelopes with satisfaction.
"Uncle Chunsheng, isn't it Gao Hongmei's uncle's family? Mother, are we all going to drink as a family? Is Grandpa going too? ”
"Your grandfather is not going, he is at home with your grandfather Tang and Qiubai to eat together."
The old man rarely participates in village activities, and it is usually Mrs. Zhao who comes forward, but if any family can invite the old man, then the main family is quite face-saving.
So far, the old man only participated in the 90th birthday banquet of Uncle Zhong, the oldest in the village, last year, and the big birthday of the people in the city should be held two years in advance, although Uncle Zhong is still only 89, but he has already held the 90th birthday, and the old man personally went to congratulate him, so that Uncle Zhong's whole family felt very glorious.
"Niangniang, why are you making so many red envelopes?" Tian Sisi wondered why Mrs. Zhao had so many red envelopes.
"I have one share with your grandfather, and your third uncle, father, and uncle are three parts. It's not going to be four. ”
Although Tian Aiguo and Tian Mantong do not live in the village, whenever there is any happy event in the village, they will both ask Mrs. Zhao to take out the favor first, and then return it when they come back, which is also an attitude, indicating that although they do not live in the village, their roots are still in Yuequan Village.
Some people may think that this is a pure waste of money, like Tian Aiguo, who is a big official outside, how can he return to this mountain nest?
At the beginning, Tian Aiguo's wife Xu Qianwen felt a little distressed about these people's money. Although it's just one piece or two. But it will be a lot in a year, so she took advantage of the Chinese New Year to go home and proposed to Mrs. Zhao that she would not leave the village in the future, anyway, she and Aiguo would not live in the village.
Mrs. Zhao didn't say much, she just called her eldest son over. Ask him if that's what he meant. Tian Aiguo glared at his wife a few times after hearing this. When even if he resolutely said that the favor in the village must continue, he walked out of Yuequan Village, and of course he couldn't cut off the connection with Yuequan Village.
The old man and Mrs. Zhao were satisfied. It's good that it's not their son's idea, as for Xu Qianwen, they didn't take it to heart at all, hmph, isn't it just a Shanghainese? What's so majestic? Rat-eyed.
"Niangniang, do I want to give a red envelope too?" Tian Sisi asked deliberately, of course, this child has to ask some questions about IQ imbecile from time to time, so that it is in line with her current age.
"Ah Nan is still young now, just follow the mother to eat the wedding wine, the red envelope Niangniang will prepare." Mrs. Zhao was really amused by her granddaughter's words, and pinched Tian Sisi's face.
Tian Sisi giggled a few times, chatted with Mrs. Zhao for a few more words, and then ran to He Xuewen and asked him if he wanted to eat the wedding wine.
Of course He Xuewen was going, he also wrapped a red envelope, Tian Sisi asked him how much, He Daxian replied very arrogantly: "Ten yuan." ”
Tian Sisi rolled his eyes, Daddy, Daddy, aren't you showing off clearly? Everyone takes five dimes and one yuan, but you are ten yuan, which is not conspicuous enough? Fortunately, she came over and asked, otherwise Tian Chunsheng's family would not have to sit still?
"Daddy, my mother only packs two pieces, why do you want to wrap ten pieces?" Tian Sisi couldn't say too much, so he had to pretend not to understand and asked.
He Xuewen was reminded by Tian Sisi's words, and only then did he realize that the number of red envelopes was wrong, so he took out the red envelopes, drew out the great unity, and exchanged two one-yuan banknotes into it.
"It's Daddy who pretended to be wrong, and Daddy originally planned to install two pieces."
He Xuewen refused to admit that he had made a mistake, this was related to his face in front of his daughter, and he resolutely couldn't admit it, Tian Sisi was funny in his heart, but he still took care of He Xuewen's self-esteem and did not expose it.
When it was almost four o'clock, Tian Manyin and Zhu Aiqing also got off work in advance, were taking a shower and dressing up at home, and said that they would go later, Tian Sisi followed Mrs. Zhao to eat the wedding wine first, and as for Donghua Jianguo, the children had already run out to play.
Li Yuedi took Tian Xinhua and Tian Qinghua and several children to wait for them at the door of the house, Zhu Qingping also hugged Niu Niu and followed, Niu Niu heard his dear Si Si Da and quarreled down, ran crookedly into Tian Si Si's arms, and kept shouting "big" in his mouth.
Tian Sisi smiled and fed a toffee into the little guy's mouth, and Niu Niu returned to Zhu Qingping with satisfaction, with a smug smile on his face, and a coquettish appearance, which made the big guy laugh.
Seeing Niu Niu's cute appearance, Tian Sisi couldn't help but feel a little emotional, at the same age of three years old, Baoguo is much more mature, although sometimes Baoguo will be naughty, but most of the time he is sensible and well-behaved, this is probably the poor man's child is in charge early.
Li Yuedi didn't care about their children, she and Mrs. Zhao were affectionately holding hands and talking about homely things while walking, Tian Sisi looked funny, these two old ladies meet every day, how can there be so much to say.
"Brother Xinhua, why didn't Brother Shouhua come?" didn't see Tian Shouhua, Tian Sisi was a little strange.
"My fourth brother and the groom went to Baita Town to pick up the bride." Tian Qinghua rushed to answer on the side.
"Pick up the bride? Why did Brother Shouhua also pick up the bride? ”
"My fourth brother is good-looking, Uncle Chunsheng asked my fourth brother to be the best man." Tian Qinghua chattered while eating toffee.
Tian Sisi suddenly realized that she had been a child for a long time, and she had forgotten the customs of the city, and the groom wanted to find more than two groomsmen when she got married, which was similar to the current groomsmen, and generally found a young unmarried man with good looks, tall stature, articulate and superb drinking.
The number of groomsmen should be equivalent to the number of concubines (bridesmaids) of the other bride, and they are all even numbers, the more the more grand, this time I heard that the bride's family invited six concubines, so Tian Chunsheng's family also got six groomsmen, no choice but to pull Tian Shouhua, who is only sixteen years old, to fill the number, fortunately, Tian Shouhua looks long and jade, a talent, and the best man does not embarrass the main family.
"Ah Nan, do you still have any milk candy? One is not addictive. ”
Tian Qinghua chewed the toffee in his mouth, and asked Tian Sisi for it, the white rabbit is really delicious, even more delicious than candy.
"Brother Qinghua can't eat it, you can only eat one a day, and if you eat it again, your teeth will rot."
Tian Sisi immediately refused, in his previous life, Tian Qinghua was a strong and strong soldier brother, but don't become a soldier brother with rotten teeth because of her appearance, thinking that Tian Qinghua will be wearing a military uniform in a majestic manner in the future, but when he opened his mouth and showed a mouthful of rotten teeth, Tian Sisi couldn't help but want to laugh.
