Chapter 51: New Year's Greetings
Shen Fang came out and called someone, so he went into the house and greeted his uncle with food and drink.
The eldest aunt Shen Aizhi also brought Xiao Zhou here, looking at her cousin wrapped in the cloak, her little face was very cute, and Hu Shi hurriedly took out a red envelope and stuffed it into Xiao Zhou's cloak.
"Mom, you can keep this money for yourself to buy something to replenish your body." Shen Aizhi refused to ask for the red envelope.
"The child is here for the first time, and it should be." Hu said with a smile.
Everyone sat down when they entered the house, and the little aunt Shen Chunzhi suddenly said to the Hu family: "Mom, I met the eldest brother yesterday, and he said that you are sick?" ”
The little aunt Shen Chunzhi was transferred to the county machinery factory by Shen Changxi, and the little uncle Li Qingfeng was also a worker in the machinery factory, and the two of them lived a happy life.
They all live in a house divided by the machinery factory, only one building away from the eldest brother Shen Changxi's house, and the two families often meet.
Hearing the little aunt mention the eldest brother, Shen Chi found that the expression on the eldest aunt's face suddenly darkened, this was the first time Shen Chi saw the eldest aunt after he was reborn, thinking of the suspicion between her and the uncle, Shen Chi didn't know how to resolve it, and his intuition was full of headaches.
Hu smiled and had to briefly explain his condition.
Shen Aizhi on the side listened, put away his depressed mood and complained to the Hu family: "Why don't you tell us about such a big thing." ”
Xiao Mingjin and Li Qingfeng also blamed again and again when they heard this.
Hu Shi smiled: "Serious illnesses can't be cured, let you worry about it, minor illnesses are insignificant, and there is no point in saying it." You just have to live your life well, and there are your second brother and sister-in-law on Mom's side, so don't worry about it. ”
"How are you doing now?" Sister-in-law Shen Chunzhi asked with concern.
Hu replied with a smile: "After drinking the medicine, it has been much better." ”
Seeing that the mother was indeed fine, everyone was relieved.
The family sat and began to gossip, at this time Shen Chi saw his cousin falling asleep in his aunt's arms, and the aunt hurriedly got up and carried his cousin to his grandmother's room, and Shen Chi hurriedly followed him when he saw this.
"Auntie." Seeing that the aunt gently put her cousin on the bed, Shen Chi shouted in a low voice.
"Gallop here." Seeing Shen Chi come in, Shen Aizhi hurriedly called him to the bedside, and then took out a red envelope and handed it to him.
"Thank you, auntie." took the red envelope and looked at his cousin who was sleeping soundly on the bed, Shen Chi said softly: "How many months has my cousin been?" ”
"It's been six months." Shen Aizhi looked at her son with a kind face.
"Six months, that is to say, there are five months left for my cousin to have a birthday banquet. In six months, my aunt will ...... "Shen Chi didn't dare to think about it, he couldn't!" Do it all over again, and you must not let the tragedy of the previous life repeat itself!
Shen Chi lay on the side of the bed and looked at his sleeping cousin, thinking of what happened to his cousin in his previous life, and he had mixed feelings for a while.
In his previous life, after his aunt left, his uncle remarried, and when he became sensible, he didn't know who told him about his own mother, but his cousin suddenly seemed to be a different person, and he didn't read books anymore.
Shen Changlin didn't stay at his father-in-law's house for long, and it is estimated that he only ate a bowl of noodles and came back at most.
Because it was not yet ten o'clock in the morning when they got home. Seeing that the two younger sisters and brother-in-law were there, they couldn't take a breath and hurriedly went into the kitchen and left them for lunch.
"We originally planned to eat before leaving, otherwise we wouldn't have waited for the second brother to come back." Li Qingfeng joked.
The dishes for the New Year are all ready-made, and the fried fish and chicken nuggets only need to be heated, and they can be served after a little processing, so Shen Changlin will make lunch quickly.
Everyone also happily went to the table and began to eat, and Hu helped the eldest daughter to watch the children, so that she could eat with peace of mind.
Shen Fang took a bite of the fish and said to his father, "Dad, the dishes you cook are not as delicious as those made by Xiao Chi." ”
"It's good to have to eat, talk a lot, and you can't even stop your mouth if you eat." Shen Changlin glared at Shen Fang.
However, he sandwiched a piece of his own dish, and he frowned when he ate it.
"Xiao Chi can also cook? When will my aunt try the craft? Little uncle Li Qingfeng smiled and said to Shen Chi.
"I'll do it for you when you come often." Shen Chi also replied jokingly.
His words immediately drew laughter from everyone.
Because Xiao Mingjin and they still had to ride a bicycle to lead people, Hu Shi didn't let go of the wine, so everyone had to salute each other with tea instead of wine, and after saying some words of blessing, they began to eat.
After they were full of wine and food, because Shen Chunzhi and they were going back to the city, they didn't dare to stay longer because of the long distance, so they got up to leave after sitting for a while, and Xiao Mingjin also got up and said goodbye.
After entertaining the two aunts' families, Shen Chi's family has no guests to entertain, and fewer relatives also have the advantage of having fewer relatives, that is, they don't have to be busy with hospitality every day.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Shen Changlin took Shen Fang and Shen Chi and began to worship their uncles one by one, and the three relatives received a number of red envelopes in one day.
Since the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, when everyone is still busy greeting each other, Shen Chi's family has been idle at home.
So quiet is exactly what Shen Chi wants, he returned to the room and brushed up his knowledge points, and after a year, he was a year older, and his age column in the attribute board showed that he was already eight years old.
After reading Qingjing for two days, Sun Tao came to Shen Chi in the sixth year of junior high school.
"What are you doing here if you're not at home for the New Year?" Shen Chi asked.
"It's not fun to stay at home, but it's fun to come to you for tutoring." Sun Tao replied.
Shen Chi couldn't help but roll his eyes in his heart: "Looking for abuse!" ”
Just like that, Sun Tao lived in Shen Chi's house, and for a while, the people in Tangsun Village laughed at Sun Fuqiang's good son for becoming someone else's family, Sun Fuqiang wished that his son stayed with Shen Chi, and he just smiled when he heard it.
Time passes day by day, and the New Year in the countryside is still very lively, and after the eighth day of the new year, folk artists will organize to row dragon boats and dance dragon lanterns.
The dragon boat here is not a dragon boat rowed on the water during the Dragon Boat Festival, this dragon boat is the same as the dragon lantern.
The dragon lantern is more than ten meters long, and it takes twenty or thirty people to dance. The dragon boat is the size of a palanquin in the past, and the bottom is empty, so people can walk around by holding the strings on both sides of the dragon boat.
The dragon boat will be followed by shrimp soldiers and crab generals, as well as mussel essence, the shell of the mussel essence is also paper-tied, and the colorful is beautiful.
The people who dress up as mussels hang the mussel shells on their bodies, each hand holds the handle of the inner lining, and then opens and closes, the children are most curious about these, and the back of the line will be full of adults and children every time they row the dragon boat and dance the dragon lantern.
The dragon boat and dragon lantern dance to whoever will set off firecrackers to greet each other, which is a symbol of auspicious and festive good things, after the dance, the host will give some sugar, Jingguo and a few cents of money.
Of course, there are also those who will give a few pieces of ten yuan, and the people who play the dragon boat are very energetic, and the good words and auspicious words are like no money.
