Chapter 84: Chinese New Year
84. Chinese New Year
Xiaobao jumped up and down with excitement.
"It's good to celebrate the New Year, wear new clothes, eat delicious food, and have fun."
Erniu: "I also celebrated the New Year before, but I didn't have new clothes to wear, and the only benefit was to be able to eat some meat."
Zhang Yu took Erniu's hand.
"Erniu, do you miss grandpa?"
"Yes! How nice it would be if Grandpa was still alive and able to live such a good life! Yesterday, Brother Chunhua said that if a person has only bitterness and no sweetness all his life, how bitter should he live! Grandpa is a person who has only suffered all his life, how bitter he has been in this life! ”
"Grandpa left us early, it's really a pity, but, Erniu, you have to be happy, don't always feel that you have a good life, but grandpa doesn't, so I feel ashamed, this kind of psychology is not good, you can't leave because grandpa didn't live a good life, we don't dare to live a good life for the rest of our lives, I feel that if I live a good life, I am ashamed of grandpa, grandpa if he knows that you think like this, he will be uneasy, he hopes that we will live a good life!"
"Yes! Grandpa was sick and knew that he couldn't do it, so he wrote to Grandpa Zhao and asked Grandpa Zhao to take us here to live, so that we could live a good life. ”
"Yes! Grandpa hopes that we will be well, worry-free about food and clothing, happy and happy, but you dare not be happy, dare not spend money, dare not enjoy, feel guilty to do so, your mentality will bind you to be unhappy and happy for the rest of your life, which is the result that grandpa does not want to see. ”
Erniu listened to Zhang Yu's words and seemed to be touched.
"Although grandpa has a very hard life in this life, he lost his son and daughter-in-law, and he bears the burden of raising three grandchildren alone, but he is not bitter in his heart, because he is positive and optimistic, in the face of difficulties, he never has a sad face, he also has three grandchildren who make him proud, they are kind and hardworking, down-to-earth, this is the most gratifying in his life."
"Although some people have money, but the descendants do not become a tool, it is a matter of time before the family business is lost, such a family, there is no hope, there is no future, this is the real most bitter, our sisters and brothers, study hard, work hard to make money, live a good life, grandpa Quanxia knows, and it should be at ease."
The second girl's face was slightly relieved.
Zhang Yu continued: "You should understand that life is more bitter than sweet, everyone's life is bitter in its own way, what kind of family we were born in, we can't choose, but what kind of life we want to live, you can choose, you can't live in this shadow for the rest of your life because of the bitterness of the family, you want to live a hard life or a sweet life, it is the difference of a thought, you feel that your life is bitter or sweet, and it is also the difference of a thought."
"You see, when we first arrived in this city, we didn't know if we could survive here, and I told you that we would definitely live a well-fed life, and you didn't believe it at the time, how about it? Aren't you well fed and clothed now? ”
"So, believe that you can live a good life and have the ability to live a good life, if you don't have that belief, you won't have such a day."
"Eldest sister, I know, just because you have good ideas, there is hope in your heart, there is motivation to do things, and then it really comes true."
"You've summed it up perfectly, that's it."
Zhang Yu wanted to talk to her more, but she was afraid that she wouldn't understand, so she was relieved to see her, so she just did.
Erniu is a smart child, but her mind is too heavy, and after telling her so much today, she should slowly figure it out.
For lunch, Zhang Yu took his younger brothers and sisters to the Red Star Hotel to eat.
She ordered a pork stew vermicelli, a pot of pork, and three bowls of rice.
This time, Erniu didn't say anything, but Zhang Yu still said meaningfully: "Open to eat, we have the ability to make money, and we are more qualified to enjoy it, eat more delicious food, and see many better things, so we have the motivation to study hard and make money well."
Since she met Xia Yunbo again, Zhang Yu has also figured it out a lot, after half a year of hard work, she didn't feel how bitter it was at the time, but now that she is relaxed, she admires her perseverance at that time.
So take advantage of these few days for the New Year, revenge consumption and relax yourself.
When they arrived home after lunch, Xia Yunbo was already waiting for them there.
"I'm here to pick you up and take you to my house for lunch, but I didn't expect you to go out."
"Haven't you eaten yet?"
"When I saw that you weren't at home, I knew you must have eaten outside, so I went back to eat before coming back."
"Then let's go to your house now and help prepare dinner."
Zhang Yu brought the gifts they bought and went to Zhao's house with Xia Yunbo.
This time, the three of them went to Zhao's house, which was different from the one half a year ago.
That time, they were dressed rusticly, and they looked like children from the countryside, and the eyes of Erniu and Xiaobao were timid and frightened and sad that did not match their age, and their words and deeds also seemed restrained and overwhelmed.
Although Zhang Yu is still down-to-earth and generous, her demeanor is decent, but the clothes on her body can't hide her poverty and shabby.
This time it was different, the three siblings were all wearing new clothes, and they were all of good texture.
Their faces naturally radiate with confidence and happiness.
Zhang Yu and Erniu are both handsome, and they have changed into new clothes, which is even more beautiful and refined.
When Zhao Chunxiang saw them, she almost didn't recognize them, it was they who greeted Grandpa Zhao first, and Grandpa Zhao called them by their names, and Zhao Chunxiang reacted that the two sisters in front of her turned out to be the pair of sisters who looked miserable in rags half a year ago.
There is also Xiaobao, who has grown a lot in the past six months, white and fat, and his eyes are even more black and clear.
He threw himself in front of Grandpa Zhao like all carefree children, and called Grandpa sweetly.
Grandpa Zhao happily took him in front of him and looked at him carefully.
"Xiaobao, you have become whiter, you have grown taller, and you have become stronger, I heard that you and your second sister have good academic performance, not worse than those classmates in the city at all, but better than most of them."
Li Jiahui answered: "It's not! There are more than 600 people in one grade, and there are only one or two who can take the double hundred. ”
Grandpa Zhao smiled: "Good job, grandpa rewards you with red envelopes."
As he spoke, Grandpa Zhao took out a red envelope from his arms and stuffed it into Xiaobao's hand.
Xiaobao knew that red envelopes were money, but since he was a child, he had never received red envelopes, nor did he know that there was a custom of receiving red envelopes during the Chinese New Year.
"Grandpa, no, I can't take it."
