Chapter 53: The Problem of New Year's Gifts

But for Mo Yunfei, Mo Xiaojie's behavior of "eating inside and out" is worthy of recognition, so Mo Yunfei praised it.

Mo Xiaojie was very happy to be praised, and whispered to Mo Yunfei: "Big brother, don't worry, if you hear that your father and mother want to give money to others in the future, I will tell you!" ”

Mo Yunfei touched Mo Xiaojie's little head and said, "Hmm! But just tell me, don't tell anyone else, you know? ”

"Big brother, I'm not stupid!" Mo Xiaojie is indeed not stupid, after these few things, he feels that his brother is much more reliable than his father, so he will do this.

Mo Yunfei really forgot about giving New Year's gifts for the New Year, and when she heard that she was going to give one or two to her grandparents, she objected.

Mo Yunfei thought about it, but still went in and said, "Dad, mother, is our family not ready to give grandparents pension money?" "Mo Yunfei will not be stupid to betray the little ear to report God.

"Yes, I'm discussing it with your mother!" Mo Dahe didn't think much about it: "Xiaofei, I think our family has earned a little this year, why don't you give your grandfather two taels!" ”

Mo Yunfei said: "Dad, mother, I think it's better not to, we are making money, yes, but Dad, don't forget, the money we earn is not good for everyone to know, if we give grandpa two taels, everyone will definitely guess that we have earned a lot of money, if someone comes to borrow money, will we borrow it?" Borrow, but in fact, our family doesn't have enough money, don't borrow, people say you have money and refuse to borrow! ”

also thought of the events of that night, Mo Yunfei didn't dare to oppose too strongly, so he first explained euphemistically: "Dad, mother, I think we are really not in a hurry to be filial at this time, and things like selling Spring Festival couplets are also a hammer deal, Dad, you also saw it, on the third day, people began to come to grab business, and in the back, you can see people writing Spring Festival couplets on the whole street; By the end of next year, even if you can write the Spring Festival couplets again, it is unknown how much you can earn, so we must save this money! ”

"If we have other livelihoods in the future, life is better, and it is not too late for us to be filial to our grandparents! Now that my dad is giving two taels, has my dad ever thought about how much he will send in the future? Mo Yunfei said patiently.

Then give his own opinion: "Dad, mother, didn't you say before that you could send rice noodles?" I look at it this way, let's give 400 yuan, our mother said that the quality of these cotton fabrics is very good, let my mother work harder, cut two cotton underwear, this is comfortable to wear, and then send it after the year; In the case of rice noodles, let's just send five catties, I think it's about the same! ”

"In this way, we can not only honor our grandparents, but also let people know how much money our family earns!" Mo Yunfei said.

"Is this good?" Mo Dahe disagrees very much in his heart, is this treating his relatives as jackals, tigers and leopards? But he didn't dare to reprimand Mo Yunfei.

Su Sanmei didn't have any opinions, she felt that Mo Yunfei's opinion was better, if she just concealed how much money she earned, she could save a lot of trouble, why not? What's more, she has already heard about Mo Yunfei.

So Su Sanmei agreed: "Then so be it!" Then seeing what Mo Dahe was going to say, Su Sanmei pulled Mo Dahe's sleeve!

Mo Dahe changed his words instantly: "That's okay!" That's it! ”

Mo Yunfei saw the couple's small movements, but she didn't see them.

"Xiaofei, then you say, do you want to return the money your grandfather gave to your father?" Mo Dahe asked.

"If that's it, Dad, I don't think I need to pay it back!" Mo Yunfei's reason is very simple: "Dad, I'm not greedy for grandpa's money, but I think since we are not greedy for grandpa's money, it is better to stay with us first, and if grandpa is in need, we will send it over!" Dad, you are deposited with us as a grandfather! "Mo Dahe's eldest brother and younger brother, Mo Yunfei doesn't have much sense of trust!

"Why is that? We don't lack it now, since we don't want your grandfather's money! Mo Dahe was puzzled.

Su Sanmei had some opinions about Mo Zonghai and Mo Dajiang after that night, so she had the intention of guessing Mo Yunfei.

Su Sanmei was afraid that Mo Yunfei would say something again, so the father and daughter quarreled, and hurriedly said: "Husband, Dad is not short of money now, this money should be kept for our father, if Dad is really short of money, Husband, you send it to Dad again, it's not a big deal, Husband, don't you say?" ”

Mo Yunfei looked at Mo Dahe so naΓ―ve, she especially wanted to say: I still take care of this family!

It's just that he still has the strength to spare, and he can't say it, if Mo Yunfei knew that Sun Hao had persuaded Mo Dahe, he wouldn't have any worries.

Seeing that the couple agreed, Mo Yunfei didn't say anything more, anyway, she didn't care about the process, as long as the result was good!

Su Sanmei asked Mo Yunfei: "Yunfei, then you said that we will go to your grandfather and grandmother's house after the New Year, what should we send?" ”

"My grandparents are also very good to us every year, otherwise we will send five catties of white flour and rice, and I don't care to send two couplets to my grandparents and grandparents, uncle, let's add a pound of shiitake mushrooms, what do you think?" Mo Yunfei thought for a while and said.

Mo Yunfei explained: "My grandparents also give our family a lot of things every year, and I also know that I have to honor them, but if I give too much, people may think that how much we have earned and how rich we are, it is easy to cause unnecessary trouble, and if there are any good things in our family in the future, we can send them again!" ”

Su Sanmei nodded happily: "Well, well, that's very good!" ”

Mo Yunfei said: "Mother, when the time comes, you will secretly stuff my grandparents with a hundred yuan, and don't give too much!" "The main thing is to defend people, not to be unfilial.

"Good, good!" Su Sanmei said.

Mo Dahe has no opinion, the second elder of the Su family is really good to them and his wife, if you really want to compare, Mo Dahe doesn't dare to say that his brothers have several brothers-in-law who are good to him.

After Mo Yunfei left, Su Sanmei said to Mo Dahe: "Husband, I think it's really you thinking too much, Xiaofei, this kid is a little thoughtful, but he still knows how to be grateful." You see that my father and mother are good to our family, and Xiaofei is not stingy! ”

"I know, but there's no need to hide it like that, right? Who are you guarding against? Mo Dahe was very depressed, he didn't have any intention of showing off, but he was hiding it like this, which always made people feel very bad, especially if it was his relatives who were guarded.

"Actually, I think you're thinking too much, husband, and it's not really that you want to guard against anyone, but Xiaofei is careful in doing things!" Su Sanmei said: "According to me, it's not wrong to be careful!" ”

"Husband, you said that our family earns a hundred taels, which seems to be a lot, but I thought about it before going to bed last night, if I want to build a blue brick house, maybe it's enough? And next year, let's at least send Xiaochi and Xiaojie to study, right? Especially Xiao Chi, who is ten years old after turning the year! The pen, ink, paper, and inkstone every year is also a lot of money, although our family has eight acres of land, but these eight acres of land, we will not be able to farm, and we don't know how much food there will be! Su Sanmei counted.
