"Limu, come, the fourth mother will give you a New Year's envelope."

Li Caosheng's hands holding Limu finally got tired, put the teasing Limu back to the ground, and took out a red envelope from the pocket of his trouser leg and handed it to Limu.

"Remember, it's already been given." She specifically reminded her.

"Well, remember to remember". Riki knew that the reminder of the fourth mother was not stingy.

Just like the number of red envelopes prepared by her mother is too large, there should be more than 20 red envelopes in her trouser pocket, and the visual inspection used to be bulging and pressed into a pile, even so, she is still worried that the number of red envelopes is not enough to be distributed.

It is known that Riki's grandmother has seven children.

Limu's mother and his mother are 15 years apart, and they married in the north of Nanhua Bridge in their early years, which is now the commercial area and the pedestrian street in the future. The eldest mother's husband died early, and Riki didn't have much impression of him. There are two daughters, the eldest daughter is quiet and obedient, and the younger daughter is as playful and rebellious as Limu's runaway sister-in-law, they are Limu's eldest cousin and fifth cousin

Limu's second mother and his mother are 12 years apart, married in a nearby village, and gave birth to two daughters, their studies are not very good, but whether they are young or when they grow up, the quality of appearance is the highest among their granddaughters, and they can still be used as school flowers at the age of 30. The two are Riki's second and third cousins, respectively.

Limu's uncle and Limu's mother are 5 years apart, marry a woman from another village, and have a son, the eldest Limu is 1 year old, a little earlier than the second cousin, and is the eldest cousin of Limu.

The difference between the birth of Limu's sixth mother and Limu's mother is less than a year. He had a son who was born late and is still in infancy. Her husband is Li Ren from the same village, gave up farming, to repair cars as a business, and then opened a 4S shop, very profitable, Limu was almost arranged by his mother to work in his 4S shop after graduation.

Qi Niang, that is, Limu's mother, gave birth to a son.

The Li family has 3 grandchildren, 1 grandson, 6 granddaughters, a total of 10 people, and sometimes there are a few more children from the neighborhood in the village who come to the banquet. Who did the red envelope go to? Who didn't send it? It's hard for them to remember.

Inevitably sending red envelopes repeatedly, they often ask children to remember it themselves.

The upper limit of the memory unit of ordinary people is between 7±2, which means that after 9 people, the memory will be confused. People who don't study well during the special period, and those who can't get exercise in their brains in their early years are naturally not easy to remember, and they only send red envelopes once a year, so they don't give the brain a chance to exercise mechanical memory.

In fact, it is difficult for children to remember whether they have received red envelopes or not. Their sisters don't look like each other, but they are also four or five points similar, and it is painful to recognize their faces. When their husbands arrived later, the number of people to remember would become 14, and the grandmother was very recognizable and was not counted.

In the face of such a large number of children, they will also be confused, who gave the red envelope and who did not give the red envelope can not remember clearly, if the two parties do not remember, they will give more red envelopes, and preparing more red envelopes is a necessary measure.

"Come, this is the envelope of the fourth mother." The third mother squatted down and handed it to Limu.

Limu stacked two red envelopes on top of each other and put them in his pocket. Their red envelopes are all of the same color, apparently bought together, and 20 can be bought for 1 or 2 yuan.

He doesn't have to guess to know how much money is in the red envelope, and the red envelope of his mother's family is usually 5 yuan, and there are also 10 yuan. 10 yuan is generally regarded as a red envelope for husband and wife, which can save the packaging fee of a red envelope. If you say Happy New Year to their husbands, and those big men only respond to the sound and do nothing else, when they sit firmly on Mount Tai.

…… That is, their wife has already helped them give red envelopes.

The child understood and left after greeting him, and told his partner not to say Happy New Year to the uncle...... Because it was the mother who sent the money.

The mother's family gave very little money, which was no choice, the vegetable farmers didn't make much money in the first place, and there were so many children that it was hairy. If it is sealed for 100 yuan, a New Year's banquet must be at least 1,000 yuan. When Limu was the store manager, he didn't dare to seal 100 yuan, but there are more children than now!!

I can only look at my own child, the money in the hands of the pear bear, and I can't be cheeky to ask for the cost.

In fact, now because of the small amount of money, although there are many red envelopes collected at my grandmother's house, they can't even make up 200 yuan when they are piled together.

The three mothers and four mothers stood at the gate of the courtyard after giving out the red envelopes and looked into the courtyard, and found that the Li family's compound was empty.

"Where's your parents?" The third mother turned around and asked.

"Mom and Grandma went to pick vegetables, and Dad estimated that he would not be able to come until night." Riki estimated that his father would definitely be late because of gambling money, and every time his grandmother's house held a New Year's dinner and a birthday banquet, his father was always the last to arrive, and often came when everyone was halfway through eating.

"Riki, are you painting? This set looks so bright, where did you buy it and how much does it cost? The fourth mother carefully stroked the freshly built easel.

"I bought it in a department store, it's not expensive."

The easel is a newly bought manga after making money, and it belongs to the mass-produced steel product. It is said that the outer layer is painted with piano lacquer, and the oil surface is so shiny that it can take care of the figure perfectly. The whole adopts a folding design, which can be tiled or tilted, and the auxiliary rod and movable screws can be lengthened and widened at any time. It's not expensive, but it's not cheap either, and the most important thing is that it's more stable than a stretch easel and not easy to swing.

When lengthened, you can put a piece of rice paper about 1200mm long, and you need a drawing board that is taller than Riki herself. Therefore, all kinds of utensils used to complete the task are prepared at home, and after being selected, they are generally carried by Dasheng Nan. Since she didn't want to continue studying, Riki simply cultivated her and simply stayed in her own home as a helper in the future.

Stayed behind to help my mother mop the floor, move sundries, and "test drugs" for my mother's new dishes.

"She's really your classmate?" Li Huasheng asked Limu with a strange gaze.

Thick arms and thighs, and the whole body is full of muscles. I didn't pay attention to it at first, but now I find that this big guy still has breasts. As soon as you put your hands on your chest - they squeeze out, and there is no Adam's apple around your neck.

"Her surname is Da, her name is Da Shengnan, she is a classmate of my fellow in the same village, and she developed a little early." Riki gave her an affirmative reply, then turned her head sideways and shouted, "Ah Nan! ”

"Huh?" Da Shengnan didn't react.

"Ahh

"Oh - the first time we met, my name is Da Shengnan, I am a classmate of Limu, I live in Pingnan Hou Village, and I study in Pingnan Elementary School...... Happy New Year, Auntie. She repeated the introductory words that Riki had taught beforehand, as if she were reciting them mechanically.

"Okay, good ......" was called an aunt by this Heita Mountain-like character, Li Huasheng and Li Caosheng trembled, goosebumps rose from the soles of their feet to their heads, and they no longer doubted him. Although she was just a weird classmate of her nephew, she still took out a red envelope without discrimination, handed it to the big guy and said:

"Here, here's your red envelope."

"I—"

"Take it." Seeing that Da Shengnan had the intention of shirking, thinking that it would waste a lot of time to come and go, Riki immediately spit out a word.

Then, the big guy really didn't hesitate to take the red envelope obediently to his nephew? Hell, is this really a classmate relationship? Just now, the nephew drank lightly, so frightened that Li Huasheng almost shook his hands.

"Thank you, Auntie." The big victory man turned out to be a red envelope, showing a well-behaved man who was incompatible with his physique.

Li Huasheng felt that the goosebumps that had just risen fell to the ground, and he felt weird no matter how he looked at this Shengnan, so he hurriedly mentioned the New Year's goods and said to Li Caosheng: "Dad should be inside, I'll go in first." ”

"Then I'm ...... too"

Seeing that his sister fled with his son, Li Caosheng also gave a red envelope to his "nephew's classmate", leading his two daughters to quickly leave this strange scene, planning to wait for his sister Li Xiuli to come back and ask her what was going on.

Looking at the back of them leaving, Limu shook his head, and there were suddenly three more children in her grandmother's house, and she must have been lively later. Ink painting pays attention to calmness of the heart, does not like to be noisy, Limu patted the thigh of Shengnan and said:

"It seems that the people have arrived, Ah Nan, take the guys, let's go into the bamboo forest to paint."

"Yes—"
