77. Chinese New Year II
Lin Xue got off the bed, took Yunyun out of the quilt and changed into clothes, and didn't wake up until she washed her face, hugging Lin Xue and coquettishly.
"Mother, what will Yunyun do later, is it true that my brother said that there is New Year's money."
Lin Xue's heart softened when she heard the milky voice, and she immediately took out the red envelope she had prepared yesterday and stuffed it into Yunyun's pocket.
"Yunyun, you have to install it, if you lose it, it's gone."
Yunyun nodded his little head, his right hand was holding his pocket, the family ate, and walked towards the old house, on the way Lin Xue explained to the two children, if the Li family does not give the New Year's money, they are not allowed to ask for it, and she will make up for it when she comes back.
The two children nodded obediently, indicating that they must be obedient, although Yunyun didn't understand the meaning, but he learned his brother's movements and nodded his little head.
As soon as I entered the door, two big red lanterns were hung under the eaves of the upper house, and there were couplets pasted on the door, and the handwriting should be written by Li Cheng
Horizontal batch: All the best.
Lifting the door curtain and entering, Li Fu led the family to pay New Year's greetings to the old man and the old lady, and the others stood aside respectfully, even Li Yue was standing on the ground.
After kowtowing, Wang took out a red envelope and handed it to Li Cheng, but no one else did.
It was the turn of the second room, Li Gui first said a sweet word to make the two old men laugh, and then the family knelt down and kowtowed, Zhao gave birth to two boys without daughters, and Wang also prepared two red envelopes.
This Lin Xue understood, it turned out that as long as the grandson had the New Year's money, Li Qi led the family forward and said a few words of blessing, kneeling and kowtowing in the same procedure, Wang gave Li Feng a red envelope and let him retreat.
In the end, it was Li Ping Bai Fen and Li Yue, the three of them kowtowed, Wang took out two red envelopes and gave them to Li Ping and Li Yue, it was obvious that Li Yue's red envelopes were much thicker, Bai Fen stood up unhappily and pulled Li Ping to hide behind.
It's been the end of the New Year, the old man smiled and took out the melon seed candy for everyone to eat, Lin Xue didn't dare to be interested, only took two candies and gave them to Li Feng and Yunyun, the two children of the big house, Li Cheng grew up, and the eldest girl didn't dare to take it at all, Erlang and San Lang didn't scruples, filled two pockets, and grabbed another handful, Wang looked at it, but couldn't say anything.
"Dad, mother, let's take the child out to pay New Year's greetings first." Lin Xue said.
"Go ahead, remember to eat together in the evening." The old man spoke.
After getting the consent, the family first went to the osmanthus house, the two children kowtowed to the New Year, the osmanthus happily took out two red envelopes, one person sent one, and then went to the family with a better relationship.
After the New Year, the family went back to the new house, the old man only said that he would eat at night, Lin Xue didn't want to be disgusted and did it himself at noon, the two children took out the red envelopes, opened them one by one, and packed them with five and three things, Li Feng probably gained twenty yuan, and Yunyun only had ten yuan, in fact, it was normal, the people in the village were more patriarchal, and they would give different amounts when they gave red envelopes, Lin Xue was worried that Yunyun was unhappy, so she took out her purse and made up ten yuan.
At noon, Lin Xue made a very hearty meal, there were chickens and fish, a total of eight dishes, the four of them ate with a mouth full of oil, Yunyun took the lead in eating, worried about the small belly and asked her mother to hug her, Lin Xue also ate almost and took Yunyun around the yard, leaving the father and son to clean up the dishes and chopsticks.
In the flower bed in the yard, Lin Xue originally planned to plant flowers, but because it was winter, the town couldn't buy plum saplings, so she retreated and chose bamboo, adding a touch of color to the monotonous yard.
"Xiaoxue, take the child into the house, it's cold outside."
"Well, I'll be back."
As soon as I entered the house, a hot breath came to my face, my whole body was warm, and there was a brazier in the house, Lin Xue took off her coat and threw it on the kang.
"Boss, tomorrow my mother's house will entertain guests, let's go over and have a look, I haven't been back for a long time, it's weird."
"Okay, I've got everything ready for my father, and we'll leave early tomorrow morning."
In the past, when there was no separation, the Wang family did not allow Lin Xue to go back on the second day of the first month, so he could only wait until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month to go, and now that he was separated, Lin Xue could also make his own decisions.
At dinner in the evening, Li Qi mentioned this matter to the old man, but the old man didn't say anything, but Wang complained a few words, but she couldn't care much after the family was separated, and in the end she could only reluctantly agree.
On the morning of the second day of junior high school, when the sky was still bright, Lin Xue opened her eyes and called the whole family up, but Yunyun was too lazy to get up in bed, but her arms couldn't reach her thighs, so she could only get up obediently under Lin Xue's persuasion and education.
After breakfast, Lin Xue carried the gifts and the children on the ox cart, Li Qi had been there countless times, picked the nearest road, and when he arrived at Lin's house, the sun had just risen, and the gate was still closed.
Lin Xue stepped forward and knocked on the door, only to hear the person inside shouting, "Who." ”
"Dad, it's me, Xiaoxue, I'm back."
"Child, his mother Xiaoxue is back, open the door quickly." Old Man Lin's excited voice.
Inexplicably, Lin Xue had an urge to cry, and tried hard to force back her tears and smile, the door came, and Hua's familiar face appeared in front of her.
"Mother, we're back to see you."
"Alright, alright, alright, come in." The Hua family greeted Lin Xue's family.
Li Qi led the cow to the backyard, and Lin Xue took the two children to the house, Lin Xue's two brothers and sisters-in-law were in the house, and when they saw them come in, one of them picked up a child, which was very rare.
"Big brother, sister-in-law, second brother, second sister-in-law, little sister." Lin Xue called out one by one.
Lin Xue's eldest brother, Lin Guo, was very tiger-headed and upright, and asked, "Xue'er, when you came back today, your mother-in-law didn't say anything." ”
Sister-in-law Li Shi hammered him, and looked at Lin Xue with an embarrassed smile, "Xue'er, don't care, your eldest brother just cares about you." ”
Lin Xue smiled, "I know, the eldest brother is straight, we have separated and moved out, and my in-laws can't control us anymore." ”
When Lin Xue's second brother Lin Jie heard this, he said happily, "My sister-in-law has finally come out, but why don't you say anything about building a house, my eldest brother and I can go and help you." ”
Lin Xue walked over and grabbed Lin Jie's arm, coquettish like when she was a child, "Second brother, aren't people afraid of tiring you, besides, your sister earned some money a while ago, and it is more than enough to build a house, so you can go over with your father and mother to have a look when you have time."
