Chapter 98: New Year's Greetings
Xie Yiyan looked at the red envelope in his hand, very embarrassed, and his mood was a little complicated.
At home, grandma and parents will also give it during the Chinese New Year. But he didn't expect that Grandma Sheng would also give him a red envelope.
After breakfast, Sheng Beicheng and Yun Fanghua were going to their grandparents, uncles and elders in the village to pay New Year's greetings, while Xie Yiyan stayed at home and talked to the three grandfathers and three grandmothers.
Before leaving, Yun Fanghua packed some peanuts and melon seeds, as well as sugar cubes, biscuits and some other snacks.
After a while, when they are gone, someone will definitely come to pay New Year's greetings to the third grandfather and the third grandmother, and when the time comes, they can take it out to entertain the guests of the New Year.
The first stop Sheng Beicheng and Yun Fanghua went to was their grandparents' house, and they lived with their little uncle.
When the husband and wife arrived, the children of the second uncle's family had already arrived and were talking to their grandparents.
Seeing Sheng Beicheng and Yun Fanghua, everyone greeted each other with a smile.
"Brother Beicheng, sister-in-law Fanghua, you are here, sit in the house." After the younger sister of the uncle's family saw the two, she beckoned the two into the house.
The two followed into the house and walked towards the grandparents who were seated above.
"Grandparents, I wish you a happy new year, good health, and all the best."
After saying a few auspicious words, the husband and wife stepped aside.
Grandpa Sheng and Grandma Sheng have many children and grandchildren, and they are old and don't care. Somebody comes to see them, and they're happy, and no one comes to see and doesn't say anything.
After all, they followed their youngest son, and it was the younger son who provided for them in the future. They didn't know what was going on at the eldest son's house, but they didn't bother to care.
This will see Sheng Beicheng and Yun Fanghua, and the second elder is still very happy. Especially when he learned that they were doing business and making money for the people in the village, he was even more happy, and said, "It is worthy of being a person from my old Sheng family, it is atmospheric." ”
After sitting at the uncle's house for a while, Sheng Beicheng and Yun Fanghua left, and they still had to go to other people's houses to pay New Year's greetings, so they couldn't stay for a long time. Otherwise, you won't be able to walk all morning.
As soon as the two left, the people who remained began to talk about them, some envious of them, some of them said sour things, and some of them said bad things.
For these, Yun Fanghua and Sheng Beicheng didn't know. They went to pay New Year's greetings to others one by one, and after a circle, it was almost time for lunch.
On the way home, passing by the Sheng family, looking at the quiet courtyard, Sheng Beicheng hesitated for a moment, and said to Yun Fanghua, "Fanghua, you go back first." I'm going to see my mom and dad. ”
"We've all come here, let's go together if you want to go."
"Okay, let's go together. If they don't speak well for a while, you should be in your ears. ”
"Got it, let's go."
The two children went out to pay New Year's greetings, and the family was Sheng Guoan and Zheng Fengying, which seemed very deserted.
They are not very old in the village, and there are not many people who come to pay their respects. Yun Fanghua glanced at it, and the melon seeds on the table had hardly moved.
Seeing Yun Fanghua and Sheng Beicheng, Sheng Guoan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and greeted, "Boss, eldest daughter-in-law, you are here, come into the house and sit." ”
I'm coming, I'm sure I'm going to sit for a while.
The two did not refuse, and went into the house and sat down.
This used to be their home, but now it feels a lot stranger.
Sitting on the chair, Sheng Beicheng chatted with his father without a word. Yun Fanghua picked up the melon seeds on the plate and knocked them.
Zheng Fengying looked at Yun Fanghua and only cared about eating, and felt a little unhappy. It was also a little embarrassing for the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to sit like this, Zheng Fengying took the lead in breaking the silence and took the initiative to ask, "Eldest daughter-in-law, did you go back to your parents' house to visit relatives a year ago?" ”
"I've already gone back and given my mom some New Year's gifts."
"Then you'll have to go back tomorrow, right?"
"Yes, I'll be going back tomorrow. It is said that my brother is going to see each other, and I have to go back to check it. ”
"How old is your brother to see each other so soon?"
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law chatted with each other, and the atmosphere was harmonious. Sheng Beicheng, who was originally worried that the two would quarrel, couldn't help but put his mind at ease.
After sitting for half an hour, the husband and wife got up and said goodbye.
Sheng Guoan and Zheng Fengying wanted to keep them at home for dinner, but they refused.
Far fragrant and smelly, the two families should not have too much intersection, otherwise they will have to make trouble in the future.
When the two left, Zheng Fengying said to the man with an emotional face, "Dad, do you think that the momentum of the boss and the eldest daughter-in-law are different." It is said that money is the guts of people, and this is indeed the case. It seems that they made a lot of money last year. ”
"No matter how much you earn, it doesn't matter to us. If you don't want the relationship between the two families to be stiff, don't go to them in the future. The boss is not ruthless, and he won't care if we really do anything in the future. ”
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Zheng Fengying nodded. She tossed for a few months, but she didn't get any benefits, so it was better to be amicable at the beginning. Maybe they will also eat and drink spicy food.
Sheng Beicheng and Yun Fanghua won't talk about it, just take those few people who work with them, and they have bought a lot more New Year's goods this year than in previous years.
They followed Yun Fanghua for a few months, on the fifteenth of every month, and there was overtime pay when the Chinese New Year was approaching, and they all earned dozens or hundreds of yuan.
They have made money, so it's no wonder they buy so many New Year's goods.
Back at home, the third grandfather and the third grandmother were preparing to make lunch. Seeing the two of them coming back, he said with a smile, "You thought you would stay at your uncle's place for dinner at noon?" ”
"No, if you eat at someone else's house, how can you eat at home?" Yun Fanghua smiled, turned around and went into the kitchen.
Last night's dishes were still a little unfinished, Yun Fanghua heated the meal and fried two more vegetables.
After eating, a few people were preparing to rest, and the children of the village began to come to pay their respects. Each child came in with a small boxy basket and said a few auspicious words.
Yun Fanghua grabbed a handful of fruits for them and put them in the basket, and they left happily.
One afternoon, the kids kept going. The third grandfather and the third grandmother saw Sheng Beicheng and Yun Fanghua at home, so they planned to go around the village to talk and chat with people of the same generation.
Out of the door, the second elder went straight to the sixth grandfather's house. He is the oldest person in the village, and everyone gathers at their house every year for the Chinese New Year.
Last year, the sixth grandfather fell ill and almost didn't survive. Later, at the strong request of his children and grandchildren, he finally went to the county seat for inspection.
Fortunately, I went for a check-up, otherwise it would have been too late when he really got sick.
Now because he was discovered early, he had surgery early, and the sixth grandfather's body is recovering well.
When the third grandfather and the third grandmother arrived, he was chatting with the old guys in the village.
