Chapter 975: New Year's Money
The thirtieth day of the lunar month.
This day is also called Chinese New Year's Eve, also known as the New Year.
Early in the morning, there were intermittent "boo-hush" sounds of cupola cannons and the crisp sound of wiping cannons, which was the children of various families playing with fireworks.
Jiang Haiyang got up, looked very energetic in new clothes, walked out of the door and saw Jiang Shan and Jiang Ting playing with fireworks, and beckoned to his two granddaughters.
"Shanshan, Tingting, come here!"
"Happy New Year, Grandpa!"
"Happy New Year, Grandpa!"
Jiang Shan and Jiang Ting both stopped playing, trotted in front of Jiang Haiyang, and greeted them obediently.
"Happy New Year! Happy New Year! Jiang Haiyang responded with a smile, took out two big red envelopes from his pocket, handed one to Jiang Shan, and said, "This is Shanshan's!" He handed Jiang Ting another one, and said the same: "This is Tingting's!" ”
"Thank you, grandpa!"
"Thank you, grandpa!"
Jiang Shan and Jiang Ting received the red envelope from their grandfather and said happily.
"Great unity!"
After Jiang Shan got the red envelope, she opened it directly, only to see that there was a big unity inside, and she couldn't help but exclaim.
"Mine is also a great unity!"
Jiang Ting also exclaimed, her little face full of happiness.
On the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the elders give red envelopes to the juniors, which is called giving the New Year money.
New Year's money, also known as pressed money. The so-called "祟" is an unlucky thing, and it is said that New Year's money can suppress evil spirits.
Therefore, in the Chinese New Year's Eve, the elders in the family will distribute the pre-prepared New Year money to the juniors, meaning that the juniors can spend the year safely after receiving the New Year money.
"Shanshan, Tingting!"
At this moment, Wang Xiuju also came over, and she also gave Jiang Shan and Jiang Ting a red envelope.
"Thank you, Grandma!"
"Thank you, Grandma!"
Jiang Shan and Jiang Ting were overjoyed again, and they couldn't wait to open the red envelope, and there was another great unity inside.
"It's great to have so much money this year!"
Jiang Ting said to Jiang Shan with a smile, sharing her joy.
You must know that in previous years, grandpa and grandma also gave New Year's money, but they were all given two cents or five cents, and they never got so much New Year's money.
"Mom, Dad!"
Jiang Xiaoyu walked over and shouted crisply, with a light in his big eyes.
New Year's money, she will have it too.
Sure enough, Jiang Haiyang and Wang Xiuju each took out a red envelope and handed it to Jiang Xiaoyu.
Jiang Haiyang didn't say anything, but Wang Xiuju said with a smile: "Come, Xiaoyu, for you!" ”
"Thank you Dad, thank you Mom!" Jiang Xiaoyu thanked happily: "I wish my father and mother a happy new year, good health, and I will study harder this year!" ”
Jiang Haiyang and Wang Xiuju listened to their little daughter's well-behaved words, and they both smiled on their faces, and they both felt very relieved.
"Dad, Mom, Wishing you prosperity!"
Jiang Xiaolei was also dressed in new clothes, and when he walked over, he first said with a hippie smile, and then stretched out a hand to Jiang Haiyang and Wang Xiuju, and said loudly: "Take the red envelope!" ”
Jiang Haiyang snorted: "I've never seen you so shameless!" ”
Having said that, he still took out a red envelope and slapped it heavily on Jiang Xiaolei's hand.
It is said that the emperor values the eldest son, and the people love their children. For this little son, Jiang Haiyang can be described as both loving and hating.
Wang Xiuju glared at Jiang Haiyang and said, "It's the New Year, why are you talking about this?" He also took out a red envelope and gave it to Jiang Xiaolei, "Come, Lei Lei, this is yours, study hard this year!" ”
"Thank you, Mom!"
Jiang Xiaolei said with a smile, directly ignoring Jiang Haiyang, and couldn't wait to open the two red envelopes.
Like Jiang Shan and Jiang Ting's red envelopes, his red envelopes also contain a great unity.
"Twenty bucks!"
Jiang Xiaolei did not hide his excitement and said loudly.
Don't underestimate these twenty yuan, in previous years, after the New Year, after the relatives left, all the New Year's money was collected, and there were no twenty yuan in total.
This year, my parents alone gave 20 yuan, as well as the eldest brother, the second brother, the eldest sister, the eldest brother-in-law, the eldest uncle, the eldest uncle, the third uncle, the third aunt, the eldest uncle, the second uncle......
Jiang Xiaolei counted in his heart who would give him New Year's money, and his eyes shone brightly.
"Mom, Dad!"
"Mom, Dad!"
At this moment, two voices came, and Jiang Xiaofeng and Luo Zhaodi walked over.
Jiang Haiyang and Wang Xiuju both nodded.
However, no red envelopes were given.
According to the rules of the countryside, those who have a family do not need to give red envelopes to their elders.
"Second brother, second sister-in-law, Wishing you prosperity!"
Jiang Xiaolei stepped forward quickly and said with a smile: "Bring the red envelope!" ”
Jiang Xiaofeng and Luo Zhaodi looked at each other and smiled, and each took out a red envelope and handed it to Jiang Xiaolei.
The couple is also very fond of this little brother.
Jiang Xiaolei got the red envelope and couldn't close his mouth happily. This red envelope is obviously heavier than what Jiang Haiyang and Wang Xiuju gave.
"Thank you, second brother!"
"Thank you, sister-in-law!"
Jiang Xiaolei said thank you in his mouth, and couldn't wait to open the red envelope in his hand.
Good guys, each red envelope is a full ten sheets of great unity.
"Wow, that's a lot!"
Jiang Xiaolei shouted excitedly.
Jiang Haiyang pursed his lips, "Third child, what are you doing with so much money for him?" ”
Wang Xiuju also said: "It's a meaning to give New Year's money, you give too much!" ”
Luo Zhaodi said with a smile: "Dad, Mom, Lei Lei is in high school now, and he has some money in his hand to buy some study materials." ”
While talking, he gave Jiang Xiaoyu a big red envelope.
It's also a hundred dollars of New Year's money.
Of course, Jiang Xiaofeng also gave.
"Thank you, second brother, thank you, second sister-in-law!"
Jiang Xiaoyu was equally happy, her small treasury was filling up.
Jiang Haiyang and Wang Xiuju didn't say anything when they saw the New Year's money that Jiang Xiaofeng and Luo Zhaodi gave Jiang Xiaoyu.
First, all that was given to Jiang Xiaolei was a hundred yuan. treats everyone equally, and it is normal to give Jiang Xiaoyu a hundred yuan.
Second, the two elders knew that Jiang Xiaoyu would not spend money indiscriminately.
"Shanshan, Tingting, come to your New Year's money!"
Luo Zhaodi gave Jiang Xiaoyu the New Year's money, and greeted Jiang Shan and Jiang Ting.
"Thank you, Erma!"
"Thank you, Mom!"
Jiang Shan and Jiang Ting both happily accepted the red envelope.
"Erma, I didn't go to school, you can give me a hundred yuan!" Jiang Shan opened the red envelope and said with a smile.
Luo Zhaodi smiled and said, "Isn't Shanshan going to study next year?" When the time comes, you can buy what you want to eat at school. ”
"Hmm!" Jiang Shan nodded happily.
Jiang Xiaofeng also gave the two children a New Year's money of 100 yuan each.
Jiang Ting's little hands clutched a few red envelopes tightly, looked at Luo Zhaodi, and asked weakly, "Mom, can I keep this year's New Year's money by myself?" ”
In rural areas, children usually have to pass the money they receive and are quickly taken away by adults.
One is that you are worried that your child will lose the money, and the other is that someone else has given your child New Year's money, and you have to give someone else's child New Year's money.
In this era, if you are poor, if you don't get back your children's New Year's money, where will you get the money to give other people's children New Year's money?
