Chapter 176: Chinese New Year

Chinese New Year's Eve is a night of reunion, and it is difficult for Chinese people to untie a reunion knot, even if they are at the end of the world, they must rush home on Chinese New Year's Eve to eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner and keep the New Year. [No pop-ups. Home on Chinese New Year's Eve is an extraordinarily warm and sweet space, and historically, even prisoners in prison have been released to return home for reunion. The whole family sat at the table and began the process of "New Year" and "New Year".

And on the Chinese New Year's Eve of Silver Fire, he was guarding in the palace and facing this difficult matter alone.

And Chen Qiaoqiao here, but it is very lively, in addition to a large table of food, the children are clamoring for red envelopes, Chen Qiaoqiao smiled and prepared a lot of big money, wrapped in red envelopes, and other people have a share, that is, Steward Liu, Chen Qiaoqiao also took a look, wrapped a silver or two. This red envelope is for the younger generations to salute their parents and grandparents, and the old people want to share the New Year's money. New Year's money, also known as "New Year's money", "New Year's money", and "New Year's money", was originally used to drive away evil spirits and help children celebrate the New Year.

Of course, the children were cheering, and it would be nice to have the big money at their disposal to buy whatever they wanted

Chen Qiaoqiao looked at everyone dressed brand new and neat, and was very happy in her heart, this King Wu Rong really went to the road and got all the people in the family into new clothes, even Zhen'er He thought of it, but he didn't know the existence of this Xiaobao, so Xiaobao didn't. Fortunately, this Qiu Xiang is ingenious, and she also made a body for Xiaobao.

After eating Chinese New Year's Eve, the family eats snacks, or laughs and plays, or talks about the drizzle, waiting for the dawn, this is the New Year's Celebration. Butler Liu also let Chen Qiaoqiao know the customs of Chinese New Year's Eve, as well as the customs of mirror listening, shining silkworms, selling dementia, and beating ash heaps, so as to divinate the good luck of the year, and pray that the child will be smart and everything will go as he wishes in the new year.

It is to hold a mirror on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve or the beginning of the year to eavesdrop on the unintentional words of passers-by, in order to divinate good fortune. On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, put the spoon in a pot full of water, pray, turn the spoon, and then go out to eavesdrop in the direction of the spoon handle, and find the answer to the prayer from the first words you hear from others.

But they live in the middle of nowhere, where do they come from?

Steward Liu insisted on doing it, and the children were eager to try, so Steward Liu took the children out of the house, walked all the way to the distance, and arrived at Yangzi's house, hiding outside the door and eavesdropping, and heard the big girl say that the food was delicious, and Steward Liu came back satisfied.

Chen Qiaoqiao knew what had happened, but she smiled, and glanced at Xing'er as if she hadn't done anything, and Xing'er's face suddenly turned red.

Where is this Steward Liu going to the mirror to listen to the clear is to explore the reality of Yangzi's family After these things, Steward Liu's thoughts have also changed a little, if Yangzi can really love Xing'er, it seems to be good, and Mrs. Yangzi's weight is self-evident.

Steward Liu went to Yangzi's house and inspected it, although it was not very rich, it was also considered food and clothing, not to mention, the family was working in the lady's manor, and they were not poor, the most important thing was that the family got along very warmly. He agreed in his heart.

After Chinese New Year's Eve, it is time to go to each other's relatives, but Chen Qiaoqiao has no relatives here, and Chen's maiden family has long since declined, and there is no place to go.

Forget it, there is nowhere to go, and there are no guests, Chen Qiaoqiao decided to live a lively life with her family

Yoko also returned, and although others were at home for the New Year, the heart flew back early in the morning.

Chen Qiaoqiao couldn't help but laugh, this apricot is here, this Yangzi's soul is only left here Originally, she wanted Yangzi's family to spend the New Year here, but she was politely refused, the golden nest and the silver nest are not as good as their own kennels, and everyone likes a quiet family reunion after the New Year, isn't it

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, of course, it is time to eat dumplings, of course, the children are excited, although this dumpling is often eaten, but the dumplings on the first day of the Lunar New Year may have a surprise Chen Qiaoqiao put a few big wallets into the dumplings, making colorful heads, whoever eats it is whom

Although it is wrapped in dumplings, the dumplings with a lot of money are always extraordinarily huge, so how can you not tell the difference

Xiao Zhen'er sneakily wanted the dumplings that had not yet been cooked, Chen Qiaoqiao slapped his hand with a smile, "You greedy for money are so anxious"

Everyone couldn't help laughing, Xiao Zhen'er's face was red, "I want to get a little more, and give my sister some big money, I'm my brother, I want to give my sister a red envelope"

Zhen'er's sensible words immediately resonated with everyone, and Si Zuo and Si You were a little ashamed, "Mother, you can give Xiaobao all the big money, we didn't think of giving red envelopes when we were aunts."

Chen Qiaoqiao looked at these loving children, with indescribable joy, "You all take care of yourself, don't you see, is there a silver ingot under Xiaobao's pillow, her red envelope is much bigger than yours?"

The children looked at Chen Qiaoqiao incredulously, and after coming back to their senses, they hurriedly turned over Xiaobao's pillow, and sure enough, there was a huge silver ingot

"Grandmother, you are eccentric, why is my sister a silver ingot, but I am a big money" In the end, I am still a child, I still pity my sister just now, and now I am jealous.

"It's just that Niang Xiaobao doesn't know how to use money, what do you do for her so much" Si Zuo and Si You pouted even more, what is going on with the mother, although this Xiaobao is a granddaughter, but they are daughters, why does the mother favor one over the other

Chen Qiaoqiao smiled dumbly, "Zhen'er, don't you feel sorry for your sister, why does your sister have more silver than you now, and you are unhappy again"

"My sister is a silver ingot, I only have a few big money, it's really unfair Zhen'er pouted, although he doesn't know the actual value of the silver ingot, but he still knows the huge difference between the two.

"My sister's mouth wants to be cured, a lot of silver, I don't know if I can ask the imperial doctor, grandmother can worry about it" Although she now has an entry, the business of this gallery is also good, but after all, helping Wu Rongwang to paint a picture on the good thing of five hundred taels, she can no longer touch, you know, is Mi Fu's son Mi Youren's painting is only a hundred taels of silver price

Besides, where is the imperial doctor easy to ask for, although King Wu Rong is willing to help. But this diagnosis Jin Chen Qiaoqiao still has to prepare, otherwise, she won't be able to take it out at all, and isn't it a joke to see what kind of disease to see

So Chen Qiaoqiao secretly decided to earn enough silver in these four months

Zhen'er suddenly had nothing to say, and sensibly took out all his money, "Grandmother, these are also kept for my sister's treatment, if my sister is cured, she must be a great beauty, and her father and mother may want her" Of course, he hoped that his father and mother could accept his sister, and the family would happily get together.

"Silly boy, grandmother will plan for the silver thing, who is grandmother, what can't you do, just care about you grow up well, you can protect your sister when you grow up, isn't it?"

Si Zuo and Si You also smiled and said: "Zhen'er, your little money is not enough, you should keep it for Xiaobao to buy a windmill to play with, if it is really not enough, we can study a little later" Si Zuo and Si You were actually a little guilty, Chen Qiaoqiao spent a lot of silver, but they didn't stay with Mr. Liu for long, it was a real loss.

"Then how can it be done" Chen Qiaoqiao said in surprise, "You don't have to care about anything, don't you have any ability at all, you are too underestimated to look down on your mother?"

Seeing what they were going to say, Chen Qiaoqiao hurriedly shouted: "Dongmei Dongmei, come in and make dumplings" and then looked at the children, "You all go out to play, stay here and get in the way"

Zhen'er said dissatisfiedly: "No, I also want to see dumplings"

"Yes, mother, we can also help, yes, mother, didn't you say that you want to tell us the origin of the dumplings, mother, you can teach us"

"Yo, this is going to make dumplings," Xu Ziji's voice came, "Mrs. In-laws, I'm here to give you New Year's greetings"

Chen Qiaoqiao couldn't help but hold her forehead, how could she not think that although she didn't have a mother's family, didn't she still have an in-laws, and although the Hu family and the Ye family were unhappy, this Xu Ziji was very good, and they were neighbors.

"Oh, in-laws, you really don't want to go, you see that my brain should be that we go to your New Year's greetings, so embarrassed to ask you to come first" Chen Qiaoqiao was full of self-blame, this Xu Ziji has always called herself Mrs. Chen, this sentence of Mrs. Chen's family called out, this Chen Qiaoqiao is diaphragm deserves to panic.

Xu Ziji celebrated the New Year alone, originally thinking that it would be the first day of the Lunar New Year, this Xu Huifang and Shu Ping always want to come to pay New Year's greetings, and that Chen Qiaoqiao moved so close, according to the number of etiquette, it is also a walk. So refreshments were prepared early in the morning, but there was no one to be seen.

Rao is his cultivation is good, and he can't hold his breath anymore. simply brought a little gift to Chen Qiaoqiao to express her dissatisfaction.

I didn't want this Chen Qiaoqiao to admit that she had forgotten it, and she looked like she couldn't regret it, Xu Ziji could see that she was not sincere, so the sullenness in her heart suddenly dissipated, but she felt that she was making a fuss. "Mrs. Chen, where are you talking about this, since we are a family, there are not so many politeness, whoever goes first is not the same, but, I am lucky, I just met you making dumplings, but I relied on it."

Chen Qiaoqiao felt a little strange, "Didn't Huifang come back?"

A trace of extreme sadness appeared on Xu Ziji's face, "We Huifang, alas, the Chen family doesn't know what kind of life they are living in, as soon as I think of this, I am panicked in my heart, and I am not afraid to complain with you, then the statement is flat, I think, it is really not the material for life."
