Chapter 123: New Year's Red Envelopes
The emotions of the old man and the old lady finally eased with Li Yubang's promise.
"Xiao Wu, Mom looks at Xiaobai as a smart child, and today I heard that her English is rare and good, if such a child is studying with you! It's really a kind of burying for her, you should really think about it, if Xiaobai stays in Kyoto to go to school, we are sure that she will go higher and farther in the future. The old lady spoke her heart, and today she talked to the old man about this matter.
But the old man said very clearly, he absolutely respects Li Yubang's personal opinions, and he can't ruin the child's own thoughts because of his beloved son's heart.
The old lady couldn't help it, so she opened her mouth and said to Li Yubang! I only hope that this child will start from Li Xiaobai's interests.
Li Yubang's expression was resolute, he had probably never insisted on his opinion like this in his life, "Mom, don't say it, Xiaobai is very smart, I always knew it!" I believe that Xiaobai grew up in the county and provincial capital, and she will also be very good, she is different from others, and gold will shine wherever she is. I can't let her stay here, at least not now, maybe she will have her own choice when she is eighteen years old, and I will respect her opinion, but at least not now! ”
Gu Man sighed, this son didn't grow up in front of him, she couldn't help but feel distressed when she looked at the child, this child is also a hard worker.
Father and daughter, father and son have always relied on each other, no wonder Li Yubang disagrees, if he is reluctant to have two children.
"Let's not talk about it, it's good that you know this matter yourself. Later, when the summer vacation comes, I will go home with the children, your father and I are not young, I'm afraid there are not a few years to live, always thinking that we can see you more when we are alive, and I also hope to see you and your brothers get along in harmony, often come back for a walk, and cultivate more feelings with your brothers and sisters-in-law.
In the future, if we leave, we can rest assured. I've been suffering you all these years, kid! The old lady's voice was choked as she spoke, and when she thought of the treatment of her son in the Qu family that Li Yuguo said just now, and how the Qu family had treated her son over the years, the old lady felt uncomfortable.
Li Yubang hurriedly persuaded the old lady, "Mom, what are you talking about?" You and my dad are healthy and so tough. I will definitely live a long life, and now that my life has passed, I will return to you, and you must take good care of your health. Let me be more filial to you, or my son will feel guilty in his heart. "He really wants to be filial to his current biological parents.
After all, his biological parents gave him the fatherly love and maternal love he wanted but never got in this life.
Li Yifu scolded the old lady, "You just cry less, it's a happy thing." You see how uncomfortable your crying makes the child's heart uncomfortable. Xiao Wu, don't worry, your parents take good care of themselves, and they still want to watch Xiaobai, Xiaojiang can achieve something in the future, and I want to watch you live a good life. ”
The family was silent.
The next day, early in the morning, the sound of firecrackers woke everyone up.
Because today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, many guests will come to the door, not only all kinds of subordinates will come to pay New Year's greetings, but the leaders of the central government will also take this opportunity to visit these cadres, and this is a ceremony that must be staged every year.
Li Xiaobai and Li Xiaojiang got up early and put on new clothes, Li Xiaobai was wearing a tacky pink shirt and a pair of white pants, and pink leather shoes on his feet. She didn't want to wear it, but she couldn't bear it, this was the eldest aunt's intention, and I was afraid that this was also the new clothes that the family didn't know which sister and sister didn't wear and took it out for her.
They came back late, and there was no time to buy them new clothes, it is estimated that the eldest aunt Zhao Xinyue didn't want them to be ugly, after all, everyone was wearing new clothes, if they didn't, it would make the old man and the old lady uncomfortable.
Li Xiaojiang is wearing black trousers, a shirt inside a small sweater, and small leather shoes on his feet, this dress looks like someone else's, but Li Xiaojiang does look like a human when he wears this clothes, quite like a little intellectual in the city.
Li Xiaobai looked at her for a long time, watching that she was almost catching up with Sister Hua's clothes in her life, and her younger brother was more than a thousand times stronger than herself.
After the two of them packed up, they hurried out to greet the elders in the family.
They can't do it if they don't come out, Li Jianxin has already knocked on the door several times.
A few little guys can now treat their younger brothers and sisters as their relatives, and they are reluctant to forget them all of a sudden, and what the children are thinking about during the New Year is that little bit of New Year's money.
After a simple breakfast, a few dumplings per person, probably filling the stomach, can be regarded as following the customs of the New Year.
Then a room full of young and old sat in the living room.
From the oldest to the youngest, several grandchildren began to greet the elders one by one.
Li Jianfeng is the largest, he takes the lead in front and carries a group of small ones behind.
Kneel down and kowtow to the old man and the old lady, this is their annual custom, following the etiquette of treating elders in ancient times.
Mr. Li and Mrs. Li smiled and gave each of the children a big red envelope.
A few of the little ones immediately looked happy.
Li Xiaobai pinched her red envelope, she felt very thick, and she was surprised, it seems that grandparents and grandparents, but they have the heart to make up for their debts over the years, this red envelope will definitely not be small, and she believes that her brother's red envelope is the same.
It was his turn to bow to the eldest uncle, the second uncle, the third uncle, the fourth uncle, and Li Yubang, the newly appointed little uncle.
Everyone giggled and gave red envelopes one by one.
When it came to Li Yubang, Li Yubang blushed a little, he really didn't prepare, in the past, when the New Year was celebrated at the Qu family, no one gave Xiaobai and Xiaojiang red envelopes, and he didn't have money to prepare for those nephews and nieces, the money was taken away by Mrs. Qu, and it was absolutely impossible for him to take it out.
So he didn't expect to have this stubble at all, sweat broke out on his forehead, and his face immediately flushed.
Xiaobai immediately took out the red envelope from his pocket and handed it to Li Yubang, "Dad, the red envelope you prepared for your brothers and sisters is here for me, you forgot it." These were prepared by her last night, and the red paper was still found by the nanny and aunt, because she was afraid that Li Yubang would not prepare.
Sure enough, it still came in handy today, because she didn't know how much money people should give in a red envelope now, but according to the current price and salary, there can be one dollar in a red envelope, and it will be heavenly.
Even if the Li family is a high-ranking family, two yuan in a red envelope should not lose face.
Li Yubang glanced at his daughter gratefully, this child has been considerate of himself since he was a child, and he is also thoughtful, so he took the red envelope and gave a red envelope to everyone.
Seeing the children holding red envelopes in their hands and looking happy, Li Yubang breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Man and Li Yifu also smiled silently, and Gu Man put down the hand he had put into his pocket quietly.
Zhao Xinyue is a little guilty, these sister-in-law completely forget, in previous years, the red envelopes were the hearts of each family, she really didn't worry about this aspect, so I didn't expect Li Yubang to be unprepared, fortunately, Li Yubang has a smart girl, otherwise she really won't be able to get off the stage, and she will be embarrassed when the time comes, although the old lady and the old man won't say anything, but it is inevitable that there will be opinions in their hearts.
