Chapter Twenty-Eight: Those New Year's Greetings
A New Year's tea party was very successful, this night, father, mother, uncle and aunt, and younger brothers and sisters were all very happy, and after eating a Chinese New Year's Eve meal where dumplings are not dumplings and wontons are not wontons, the entire east house is full of sleeping people.
What Yang Heng didn't notice this night was that his memory was much better, a romance of the gods, so that he didn't even say a word wrong to say the first time completely, naturally there was some of his understanding in the middle, and one more thing is that Xiao Niang's memory turned out to be rare and good, Yang Heng just said it once, and he actually remembered it, when he taught a thousand words before, Yang Heng didn't pay too much attention to it, because he didn't teach a lot, and naturally he couldn't show Xiao Niang's memory.
"Hah...... Good sleep, good new year uncle, good new year. As soon as Yang Heng opened his eyes, he first saw that the uncle was also sitting up on the side. Ah, you also have a good New Year, a good New Year. The uncle replied to Yang Heng in wonder, but what was Yang Heng doing with his hand stretched out.
"Nephew, what are you?" "What am I doing, bring the red envelope!" "Red envelopes, what red envelopes." Uncle was a little confused, ah, by the way, there is no red envelope at this time, "So there is a New Year's money." "New Year's money, this term is very novel, but this is the particularity of that place." This, I remember it wrong, it seems that there is no such thing as New Year's money in this era, and there is not even a New Year's greeting, it seems that the New Year's greeting only appeared after Li Er became the emperor.
"Boy, what do you mean by New Year's money?" Yang Heng understands, it's not that Dad doesn't like Yang Heng, but he doesn't know how to express it, or he is affected by the so-called hugging his grandson and not hugging his son, and he doesn't even know how to call Yang Heng's name, so he has always been calling for a boy, and even every time he calls a boy, he will have a tiger's face, if it is the original Yang Heng, he will definitely not find out about this matter, then he will definitely be choking with his father for a lifetime, but this is not Yang Heng who has changed the core, if it is not good, he will be an outsider. So he slowly saw the signs coming, when the father was angry, and when he was happy, the tone of the boy was still different.
"Grandpa, the New Year's money, isn't this the New Year, we children are also a year older, naturally you are also a year older, but we are a year older, and you are a year older, so we are a year older, isn't it something to be happy about, I think you should take out a little money to give us a year old, do you say that in this way, our children will be better in the new year?"
Naturally, Yang Heng is a little ridiculous, just because my father always has a straight face, who made you scare me, don't you know that I am still a child? "Ah, yes, boy, that's a good idea." Not to mention, Dad really agreed with Yang Heng's statement, although Daddy and Mom only have one child, but several other uncles and aunts have died early.
"Boy, this, how much money should a person give?" There is only some money in the hands of the father, when he went to buy and wait for the west, he naturally first exchanged the gold for money, and there were some silks in it, Yang Heng also studied these silks for a few days, and found that these silks could not be used, they could only be used as currency, and I don't know who did not put them in anyone's home, this silk was eaten by insects, but there was no way, the so-called money in this era must be combined with silk and copper coins, maybe this is similar to some food stamps and cloth stamps in later generations, However, there are some differences, and it is really difficult to understand the relationship between finance and finance.
"How much do you need, one copper coin per person is enough, that's just the meaning, after this time, you can put the copper coin away from the child's hand, isn't it?" Since the father wants to be generous, then Yang Heng naturally gave the uncles the saying that they would be accepted again, to be honest, these children have no place to spend money, if they take it for a long time, they may lose it, you must know that this copper plate is a good purchasing power.
In the grateful eyes of the uncles, the father put the copper plates one by one in the hands of the children who were still sleeping, although they had not heard of the New Year's money, but now their children also have, they are naturally grateful, if they let them give, they really don't have anything in their hands, this year, they really have nothing to sell, just to eat, and they also need a lot of wild vegetables to ensure that they will not starve to death, maybe this ravine, not long after, they will move away, But now that Yang Heng's family is here, maybe they will change a lot.
"Grandpa, what is this in my hand?" The little lady woke up first, and she was dazzled to find that she had grasped something in her hand, which she had not yet seen.
"This is the New Year's money that your uncle gave you, this is to make you grow up healthy and healthy, and thank you for your uncle, and say good New Year to your uncle." This good thing is naturally easy to learn, and my uncle learned it directly when it comes to New Year's greetings.
"Uncle Xie Lu, Uncle Xie, Happy New Year," the little lady gave her father a big smile, "Well, good, good, good, little lady also has a good New Year." "Maybe the voice of the father and the little mother is a little loud, and the children are waking up one after another, so that they will explain to each other if they don't understand, and those who understand will be busy telling the father about the New Year, and the child will learn faster.
"Grandpa, look, shouldn't we go back to pay New Year's greetings to Ah Weng." This family affection, on the road of wanting to improve his status in the future, is unavoidable, whether it is true or false, Yang Heng must be kept this family affection, otherwise this will be a big stumbling block for Dad, Yang Heng's idea is not to send Dad's three grades or more, it is also in vain.
"Ah, okay, okay, let's all go together, go together." Daddy naturally didn't have the same idea as Yang Heng when he first arrived, he had been a government soldier for a while, he also knew some things, and even in his heart he had great ambitions, otherwise he would not have been able to be promoted to the fire chief in the first month, although this fire chief is not an important position, and it is no different from ordinary government soldiers, but if you want to develop in the military camp, this is a step that can't be avoided, isn't it, but if it is the emperor, Or some generals directly mentioned it don't count.
