The so-called people are in good spirits when they are happy, and last night, Li Feng slept very sweetly. Although he slept relatively late last night, he still woke up on time in the morning.

"Big brother, Yaya has given you a New Year's greeting"

Just as Li Feng finished dressing, the little girl had already pushed open the door and walked in. Then, he began to wave his hands at Li Feng and greet Li Feng for the New Year.

"Ah, okay, big brother also gave Yaya New Year's greetings, I wish Yaya peace and health, the longer she grows, the more beautiful she becomes. Come, Yaya, big brother will give you New Year's money, take it"

Watching the next girl make a New Year's greeting to herself, Li Feng was stunned, but he also hurriedly followed the other party's appearance and gave the little girl a New Year's greeting, and by the way, he also said two words of blessing. Immediately afterwards, he took out a handful of copper coins and gave them to Yaya as New Year's money.

However, this handful of copper coins was used as New Year's money for the other party, which made Li Feng feel weird. You know, he used to pay for RMB. Not yet, though.

Besides, this is a bit weird, but it's still quite interesting, at least, it's quite weighty. In addition, the copper coins that Li Feng took out were still new, shiny, and beautiful.

"If everyone gives copper coins, I don't know if those children will be crushed by copper coins after a round of worship. If you meet someone who is a little more generous, hey......"

Thinking of the scene of the small figures, carrying a bag of money, Li Feng couldn't cry or laugh.

"Ah...... Big brother, why do you also give New Year's greetings to Yaya, no, no, this can only be the younger generation to the elders, the small ones to the big ones, how can there be the big ones to the small ones. And oh, big brother, what are you giving me money for, New Year's money? What is New Year's money? Hee-hee...... However, the two sentences just now of the eldest brother are well said. Well, in the future, Yaya will definitely be healthy and beautiful."

However, to Li Feng's surprise, this girl did not accept Li Feng's New Year's money, but her face was full of strangeness, and she asked Li Feng a lot of questions, which made Li Feng inexplicable.

"Ah....... New Year's money is, hey, this will not be explained to you for a while. Big brother asked you, in the past, when you went to pay New Year's greetings, didn't the adults give New Year's money? ”

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the elders give the younger generations New Year's money, which is a very normal thing for Li Feng. However, now when he heard Yaya's words, Li Feng felt a little strange in his heart.

"Yes, big brother, how can anyone pay back the money for the New Year. Well, actually, we all used to worship the New Year, but it only started the year before last. I don't want money, what am I doing with the money, I want to buy things, big brother, you will buy it for Yaya. Big brother, look, is this dress of mine beautiful, it's made of the cloth you bought for me, and my sister has it too, big brother is the best......"

After the little girl finished speaking, she immediately turned around in front of Li Feng twice, and let her newly made clothes rotate along her, like a beautiful little butterfly.

Listening to the words of the little girl, it seems that even this New Year's greeting has only started two years ago, and the custom of pressing the New Year's money has not yet begun.

Thinking of this, Li Feng suddenly remembered that a story about the origin of the custom of New Year's greetings came. This story happened in the Tang Dynasty, and it is also related to Li Shimin.

In other words, after Li Shimin ascended the throne and his position was stable. The founding heroes under his command all felt that they had made great contributions, and no one was convinced of anyone, which gave Li Shimin a headache.

At the beginning of the new year, on the first day of the new year, it is customary for the court to gather and the monarch and the ministers to celebrate together. This was supposed to be a day of great celebration, but because of the open and secret battles of the courtiers, this festive day always became full of gunpowder. made Li Shimin even more embarrassed.

Later, it was Wei Zheng who gave Li Shimin an idea.

That time, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, the monarchs and ministers gathered, and as soon as Li Shimin came up, he first gave the ministers below a beating, which frightened the ministers.

Then, Li Shimin said that this is a New Year's greeting to everyone. It is said that it is the first day of the year, a day of great joy. Everyone should be harmonious and happy on this day.

Seeing the emperor's low profile and listening to the emperor's words, where did the ministers dare to say anything.

The so-called King of Chu loves a thin waist, ** all starve to death, up and down. Slowly, this rule became popular in the homes of officials, and then it became popular among the people.

"Could it be that this story is really not true? Forget it, whatever. However, this is not even popular for New Year's money, which is not right?"

Thinking that this New Year's money has not yet become popular, Li Feng feels very good. Think about it, in the later generations, the original intention of the New Year's money has long since deteriorated. What are the thoughts of adults, so don't say much, even children, young age, there is no doubt in their hearts that they are polluted by this degraded New Year's money.

After the little girl finished helping Li Feng take care of it, she walked out of the door and saw that it was really as the little girl said. Rou Niang has changed into a beautiful new dress.

People rely on clothes, horses rely on saddles, although this sentence is very cheesy. However, it has to be said that it still makes a lot of sense.

This Rou Niang was already very beautiful, and now, after changing into such a beautiful and fitting dress, it makes her like a fresh and beautiful flower. It's not spectacular, but it's definitely pleasing to the eye.

Maybe it was because he remembered what happened last night, which made this Rou Niang's face full of shyness, and in this way, it made Li Feng's eyes almost straight.

It wasn't until Rou Niang's delicate and New Year's greetings came that Li Feng came back to his senses. Of course, Li Feng was not stingy, and from the many New Year's greetings in later generations, he selected two of the most suitable sentences and gave them to this beautiful and gentle little woman. made the smile on Rou Niang's face even sweeter.

After some washing, Li Feng did not stay at home for long. Since New Year's greetings are now popular, Li Feng decided to go door-to-door to the village to pay New Year's greetings.

Not for anything else, just for the care that this folks have taken care of this family over the years. Just for the sake of the last time Xiaohu entered the mountain, and the incident that happened two days ago because of Xiaohei, for this part, the rare and valuable simplicity and kindness, Li Feng decided to go to everyone to pay a New Year's greeting.

Fortunately, the village is very small, with a total of 40 families. And some villagers, although they are brothers, still live together, so there are not many families that Li Feng really wants to run.

However, even so, by the time he had almost finished worshipping the year, it had already taken most of the day. Even at noon, Li Feng ate at Uncle Zhuzi, that is, Zhao Dazhu's house. There was no way, when I went, people were eating, and Li Feng wanted to leave, but they didn't let go.

"Hehe, it seems that our character is really good, it's so popular"

Thinking of this New Year's greeting, the villagers' heartfelt enthusiasm for themselves made Li Feng very moved in his heart. Li Feng knows that this is not like the kind of social enthusiasm in modern society, or the enthusiasm that stammers. It's that pure passion that comes from the heart.

Coming to this era, although the people Li Feng came into contact with were basically these people from the craftsman village. However, it touched Li Feng deeply, and among them, what made Li Feng feel the most was the unity and happy smiling faces of the villagers. In this regard, Li Feng also thought about it carefully, and vaguely understood the mystery.

First of all, it is an inevitability caused by the environment. Perennial wars have caused social unrest. Individual strength, after all, is weak, therefore, everyone must unite in order to have a trace of resistance. Moreover, this kind of unity is the kind of truly selfless unity, the so-called one side is in trouble, and the whole village supports.

As for the happy smile from the heart on everyone's faces, where did it come from, Li Feng thought about it for a long time, but he didn't figure it out.

Maybe it's because the living conditions have improved, and they feel happy. After all, a few years ago, there was chaos everywhere, but now the country and the people are safe, and there are clothes and food to eat.

Living conditions are slowly improving, perhaps. This made Li Feng think of the time when with the development of society, when the living conditions were not improving.

He clearly remembered that when he was a teenager, the family could eat meat once a month, which was very good. However, after only ten years, the meat tasted greasy. In his opinion, such a change is not insignificant.

However, it seems that people's sense of happiness does not increase as life gets better and better. On the contrary, it is gradually weakening. At least, Li Feng himself is like this.

However, it is not because of the improvement of material life that people feel happy, then why? Li Feng couldn't think of an answer to this question.

"The human heart is different"

Li Feng, who couldn't figure it out, could only use this sentence to answer.
