Chapter 1015: Famine, Natural Disasters 172
Cheng Mingli shook his head, "I didn't ask, but I just sent some rice noodles and meat, and my father will deal with it."
is not a formal apprenticeship, there is no need to give six gifts, just pass; There is a convention in my hometown, there is a standard, and then inquire about the increase or decrease of the practice of Mr. Gift in the Northwest.
"Brother, it's you who go to school, not your father." Mingyi supports his forehead, and the silly brother still has room for improvement in human affairs.
Cheng Mingli looked dazed, "What does my sister mean?"
"It was you who entered the school and prepared an entrance ceremony in person to show your sincerity."
"Prepare yourself?" Cheng Mingli still didn't turn the corner, "I used to go to the private school in my hometown, and my father prepared it, what gifts can I prepare to send over?"
Mingyi choked, but she was really her own brother, but she choked her enough when she didn't intend to choke people.
"Brother, think about it from your perspective, if your father is a talent or even a person, two people will come to enroll; One is a bundle prepared at home, and the other is a bundle prepared by yourself, who would you prefer?"
Cheng Mingli suddenly realized, don't think about it, he must like people with hearts.
"I see, thank you sister for reminding me."
"It's good to understand, my brother still has something to learn in this area, followed by scheming, take your time."
Cheng Mingli pursed his lips and smiled, "Listen to my sister."
"Think more empathetically, what should you do if you stand in the shoes of others, and slowly hone your mind and calculation ability."
Empathy does not mean that you must do better than others, the real purpose is to hone your own mind, the ability to see people, and cultivate the city.
With Mingyi's suggestion, Cheng Mingli immediately went to his father, "Dad, I want to prepare for the entrance ceremony myself."
"......" Cheng Yuanxi looked puzzled.
Seeing this, Cheng Mingli said, "In order to show her sincerity to Mr. Yu, I want to prepare an entrance ceremony for Mr. Yu."
My son has grown up!
Cheng Yuanxi was emotional, but saw that his son's eyes were firm; Then he turned the corner and couldn't help but be a little curious, "Who gave you the trick?"
Cheng Mingli smiled embarrassedly, "I knew that I couldn't hide it from my father, it was my sister who told me."
"How much strength do you have to be a father?"
"I didn't think about it before, but I will think more about it in the future." You can't let your sister open her mouth to remind you of everything.
Cheng Yuanxi nodded, his son is not as good as his daughter, he is biological, and he doesn't dislike it.
"If you want to prepare it yourself, then I will take you to Fucheng to buy it after the year."
"Thank you, Dad."
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the first thing I do when I get up early in the morning is to go around the elders to receive red envelopes.
After a circle, Mingyi got four red envelopes, grandparents and grandmothers, the big house, the second room, and their third room, just four.
The same is true for Cheng Mingli and Cheng Mingyue, as for Cheng Mingyi and the others, when they are older, they will lose the red envelope to press the New Year's silver.
Worshipping the New Year is the first meal of the new year.
A large rice ball made of glutinous rice, two balls in a bowl, large and round.
Mingyi only pulls out the memories of the original owner from the depths of his memory, and eats it once every year on the first day of the Lunar New Year; In the case of low living standards in ancient times, their Cheng family was not wealthy, and it was rare to be able to eat glutinous rice balls.
Recalling the taste in her memory, she divided the large rice balls into four petals and ate them slowly; It's soft and glutinous, sweet, and there's a little sesame in it, so it's very fragrant.
It was the first time she had eaten this kind of flavored glutinous rice balls, so she couldn't help but eat more; ate ten in one go, which scared Cheng Yuanxi and his wife enough.
When she was about to go to Sheng again, she was busy pulling people.
"Boy, you've eaten enough, beware of not digesting it." Chen Daya spoke worriedly.
Cheng Yuanxi chimed in, "Girl! Shall we eat again at noon?"
Thinking that the child is small and made of glutinous rice, they are afraid that the child will eat it.
"Daddy, I can still eat." It's really delicious, with sugar, fried sesame seeds, lard, and peanuts in it, and it's fragrant and sweet, and the more you eat it, the more you want to eat it.
Cheng Yuanxi and his wife are not
dared to let her eat again, snatched the dishes and chopsticks from her hand, and sent her out to play.
Cheng Dazhu looked at it with a smile, "Yiyi likes to eat, and I will make it in the future; You can't hurt yourself at one time, so let your mother do it for you often in the future."
Luo Cuihua's face was slightly gloomy, and she wanted to say what to do, glutinous rice was very expensive; They only eat once a year, where can they do it often. The words came to her lips, and Luo Cuihua suddenly came to her senses when she saw Cheng Dazhu's smiling and kind eyes.
Mingyi is now the treasure of the family, and her husband is holding and coaxing; There is an element of true love, and there is also a bit of scheming.
"Okay, thank you, grandfather." Mingyi handed over the dishes and chopsticks to her mother, her smiling little face was ruddy and shiny, she raised a little meat during this time, and she had baby fat, and her smile was sweet and soft, and she was very cute.
Cheng Dazhu smiled even more heartily, "Good, let's go out with your brothers."
When they come to the northwest, they can't go to the grave, the ancestral grave is in their hometown, and it is unknown whether they can go back in this life.
Before leaving, Mingyi brought a coarse cloth crossbody bag prepared in advance.
Cheng Mingli and the others were surprised to see it, but it matched the red linen clothes she wore today; It's just a small pocket, so I didn't ask much.
Mingyi pulled her brother and called a few cousins to form a team to pay New Year's greetings; This is also a special event for the New Year, where the juniors of each family form a team to greet the elders of the clan.
"Mingli!"
"Mingli, Mingyi, are you going to pay New Year's greetings?"
"Mingyi, Minglian, Wise, Honest, Clear, Clear, Mingyi, are you going to the patriarch's uncle's house?"
When I walked out of the house, I didn't go far before I met my peers who formed teams from various families.
This posture has the tendency to call friends.
"Mingjing, brothers and sisters, Happy New Year, we are just going to go to the patriarch's house, and then to the village chief's grandfather's house." As the eldest brother, Cheng Mingyi answered with a smile, "You also go to the patriarch's house?"
"Yes! We're going too, just so let's go together."
"Walking." Cheng Mingyi shouted coolly, and while following the large army, he turned his head and glanced at Mingli and Mingyi, "Mingli, keep up with the etiquette, don't fall behind."
Mingyi smiled and nodded, "I know, I can't lose it."
"You can't lose it in the clan, but you don't have to be outside~" A twelve or thirteen-year-old girl teased with a sideways look, "Our family etiquette is so good, and when we grow up, people will worry about it."
"Sister Mingru, you can still speak with this mouth."
The little sister next to her joked: "Our family etiquette is indeed good, and we are young, otherwise! I'm going to be jealous; They are all sisters of the same clan, so there are so many differences."
"You little black charcoal, it's useless to be jealous."
"Oh, big girl, don't tell the truth, we're still sisters."
"I'm going to tell the truth, little black charcoal, little black charcoal, hahaha......
A group of people talked and laughed, Mingyi was stunned and didn't interject a word, three women in one play, and there were countless sets in her ears; The chatter is endless, everyone is in a good mood for the New Year, looking forward to the good times of the coming year, and also looking forward to the delicious food and drink during the New Year, so naturally there are endless words.
