Rebirth started from educated youth in 1977

Chapter 35
"Hello, my little princess, do you know who I am?"

"I know, you're a great grandmother."

Nan Ruoying was unfamiliar with Mengyin, but seeing the kind smile on Fang Mengyin's face, she was not afraid or timid.

"Yes, I am the great grandmother. Come, the great grandmother will give you a letter."

"Thank you grandma."

Nan Ruoying took the red envelope from Fang Mengyin's hand, turned her face to Nan Yi, and raised her hand, "Dad, here it is for you."

"You keep it yourself, and secretly open it later to see how much money there is in it. If there is less, you can buy food. If there is more, Dad will make you a piggy bank, and you can save up and buy whatever you want in the future. ."

"Uh-huh."

"Little skin monkey, discuss the size of the profit in front of me, take it, this is for you."

Fang Mengyin handed Nan Yi another profit.

Nan Yi took it and rubbed his fingers, but he didn't feel any banknotes inside. There were two bumps in the corner of his eyes, and he rubbed his fingers, "Grandma, you are so generous, just two five cents [hairs]?"

"Hmph, it's already quite a lot, just do as the locals do. Lee is what it means, not a red envelope."

"Interesting! I'm so embarrassed. You don't think that's what you mean. It's very boring. Tell me, what do you mean?"

"What about the tongue twister with me, can you give me another try?"

"Don't dare! As for you, the profit is so thin, and you came here empty-handed, so you can make the New Year's Eve dinner."

"Stove stove?"

"if not?"

"No, Ala doesn't know how to cook an earthen stove, and I haven't cooked myself for a year. In Xiangyuan, I hired a cook. Her family used to be from Shanghai, and she cooked well."

"Yes, Ruo Ying, let's cook, your great-grandmother is a first-class person."

"Ruo Ying, don't go, just stay and talk to Grandma and let your father do it by himself."

Nan Ruoying's small eyes first glanced at Fang Mengyin and then at Nan Yi, unable to make up her mind.

"You accompany grandma, I'll go by myself."

"Ah."

On New Year's Eve, apart from the fact that Nanyi made [-] dishes with [-] main ingredients, there were not too many new ideas, and it was not much different from other families in Daqian World.

It is nothing more than that the food may be slightly better, um, the house is also a little bigger.

Generally speaking, it is still an ordinary family.

On the first day of the first lunar month, I woke up early and set off firecrackers. I put some leftover rice from last year in the pot, added some water and hot it, and filled my stomach with eight treasures.

After breakfast, the three of Nan Yi sat in the hall, cutting red paper for profit.

"Is one hundred enough?"

"It should be enough. There are dozens of children in the team. There shouldn't be too many people coming to pay New Year's greetings today."

Nan Ruoying was in charge of the banknotes for the two corners of the Lisei. Nan Yi twisted the paste to seal the lids, and Fang Mengyin inserted cypress leaves on each of the Lies. The three worked together and moved quickly.

"Will there be too many horns, you are destroying the market."

"It's also the first time for foreigners to celebrate the New Year here. This year, I will block more. Next year, I will block as much as others will, and I will go with the market."

After all the benefits were sealed, Nan Yi took Nan Ruoying out.

The two went directly to the drying field of the brigade headquarters. The little monkeys who got up early this morning and went to pick up firecrackers at the door of each house, and other babies were all here.

When they saw Nan Yi, everyone's eyes lit up and they gathered around.

"Uncle Nan Yi."

"Uncle Nan Yi..."

"Don't crowd, don't crowd, line up, everyone has it."

In Guangdong Province, generally in the same brigade, in the first month, if you see someone with a lower seniority, you have to give someone a favor, which is considered a good luck.

This tradition has always been there, but a few years ago, everyone's life was very tight, and parents who knew numbers would educate their children. During the first month, don't wander around the village.

After a long time, the children will concentrate on the drying field to play at this time, and will not go to other places.

In this way, the embarrassment of adults is avoided.

If you have a loose hand, you can make a profit. Yes, you can come here on your own initiative and send a round to the children; if you have a tight hand, or you don’t want to give it, then stay away from the drying field.

It is because of this unwritten rule that when the children see Nan Yi, they know that he is here to entitle him, and they are naturally excited.

"Your, your... have you got it?"

Nan Yi glanced around and saw that each child was holding a coin in his hand, some wanted to open it to see how much money was inside; Ang Ju stood far away, looking over here.

"Wei Qi, why didn't you come?"

"No, Mom said, I'm very old." Angju shook his head and said.

"Oh." Nan Yi calculated that the profit he had just distributed was less than fifty, and said to Angju: "Since you are old, you are an adult, and you should give everyone a profit. You must have forgotten to prepare, these Give it to you first, and you send it to everyone."

Nan Yi couldn't help but shove the rest of the profit into Anju's hands, and then took Nan Ruoying and left.

In the corner, Nan Yi watched Ang Juzai giving the children a favor, and the children turned around him, shouting, "Angju, give me one, give me one."

Ang Ju's laughter was the same as before, and he still looked so stupid, but every angle was filled with the word "happy".

Taking Nan Ruoying to Xian Yaodong's house, he saw that Xian Yaodong had just come back from the outside, carrying a pole on his shoulders. The two ends of the pole were a food box and a bamboo basket.

"Nan Yi, come so early?"

"I'm afraid it's late, you don't have the money to seal the profits."

"Haha, how is this possible. Ruoying, grandpa will give you a letter." Xian Yaodong chuckled, took a letter from his pocket and handed it to Nan Ruoying.

Nan Ruoying took it and said in his mouth: "Spring breeze is ten miles away, He Qing has a good day, peace and joy, and your wish has been fulfilled! Grandpa Yaodong, Happy New Year!"

"Well, well, happy, Ruo Ying, you are also happy. It's different if you have culture. The daughters brought out are well-informed."

"Uncle Xian, did you celebrate the New Year at home yesterday?"

"No, I don't open fire during the New Year's Eve, and my uncles and brothers will take turns calling me over to have a New Year's Eve dinner together. I'm a widower, and it's too lonely."

"Auntie has been gone for 20 years, right?"

"Exactly 20 years."

"Uncle Xian, 20 years is enough, let's continue with one more."

"I also thought about it. When Ayu left, I was only 25 years old, and I was a strong guy. Sometimes in the dead of night, I really miss women. Who doesn't want to have someone who knows what's cold and what's hot.

But I can't, whenever I think of renewing myself, Ayu's face will appear.

That year, everyone could not eat, and A Yu was pregnant with a child at that time.Pregnant women should eat some nutritious food, but I can't, I can't..."

Xian Yaodong tapped his head with both hands, his energy seemed to be taken away, and he squatted down weakly.

Nan Yi stood silently on the side, waiting for Xian Yaodong to wake up from his sadness, he handed over a cigarette and helped Xian Yaodong light it.

After taking a few puffs of cigarettes, Xian Yaodong continued to speak...
