Tech overlords start with a baby

After saying hello to the neighbors, the old man shouted:
"Find me the unused red envelopes at home."

Soon, a thick stack of red packets that were completely unopened was handed to my grandfather.

Under the watchful eyes of a group of people, the old man unhurriedly chopped the branches he cut back from the back mountain into sections with a hatchet.

Under the puzzled eyes of everyone, they wrapped the branches in red envelopes, each of which was not too much or not, but two sections.

In the distance, Feiyan, who was serving as a medical soldier in the team, suddenly frowned and whispered to her teammates:
"The old man's face is not as rosy as before."

With Feiyan's reminder, Wild Wolf and the others took a closer look, and it was true.

Not only is there no ruddy, nor is his face pale, but a little dark.

Feiyan muttered to herself, "It's almost time."

Without letting anyone interfere, the old man wrapped 36 red envelopes by himself.

No accident, all the men first got the red envelopes that were passed down from generation to generation.

Mo Jingchun held the red envelope with his right hand and felt very uncomfortable.

At first, Mo Jingchun still didn't understand what grandpa did when he came back after cutting some branches.

Until the moment when grandpa put the branches into the red envelope, Mo Jingchun suddenly realized.

Firewood, firewood, that's not firewood.

Wrapped in red envelopes, doesn't it mean that the fire will be passed on from generation to generation.

"Candy, come, grandpa gave it to you." The old man smiled and handed the red envelope to the little guy.

The candy holding the little golden pig looked up at Mo Jingchun.

Mo Jingchun nodded, and Candy accepted this different red envelope.

Soon, of the 36 red envelopes, only one was left in the old man's hand.

After hesitating for a while, the old man got up and told everyone not to follow, and returned to the room alone.

A few minutes later, just when everyone was a little anxious, the old man came out.

The difference is that the old man has another red envelope in his hand, which is still a red envelope wrapped in red paper.

Under everyone's attention, the old man walked in front of Li Xuanyu.

With a sigh, "My child, Xiaochun's parents are gone, and you are here for the first time."

"According to the rules, as long as the elders agree, the elders in the family will give a big red envelope to express their satisfaction when they come and go for the first time."

"You've also seen Xiaochun's family, brother and sister, who depend on each other for life, and only my old fellow does this for my daughter and son-in-law for things like red envelopes."

Just when Li Xuanyu felt helpless and didn't know what to do, Mo Jingchun patted Li Xuanyu's shoulder lightly.

"Grandpa's heart, keep it."

Seeing that both red envelopes were accepted, the old man laughed, "If you want it, you want it!"

Then she turned to look at Zhou Yaling, who was standing at the door of the kitchen, and shouted, "Girl, don't be stunned, and bring grandpa's bath water to the room."

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Yaling trembled and turned around tremblingly.

Behind him, Zhou Yaling only felt that her grandfather's voice was getting smaller and smaller.

"Fathers and fellow villagers, please bear with me for the poor reception these years."

By the time Zhou Yaling carried the hot boiling water from the kitchen to the room, Zhou Yaling had used up all her strength. If it wasn't for Li Xuanyu's help, Zhou Yaling would have almost collapsed on the ground.

Soon, except for the Zhou Xing brothers, everyone else was invited out of the room by the old man.

Zhou Xing was adjusting the water temperature in the room.

The old man sat on the bed and gently stroked the last set of clothes in his life.

"The fabric is nice, but it's too expensive."

After speaking, the old man glanced at his son and said in a flat tone:

"What's so sad?"

"It's your father's happy event, what are you crying like?"

"Tell them not to cry, to be lively, and to set up a stage for Lao Tzu."

"Don't worry, I'm all your brothers' savings, and no one can take it away."

"Also, don't flatter Xiaochun just because he's doing well now, and one day you won't do well, and you'll turn your back on him."

"Don't dare." Zhou Xing said in a muffled voice.

The old man smiled lightly, "I know you two dare not."

"Ah~"

"As soon as I leave, many relationships will fade away~"

Seemingly thinking of something again, the old man pointed to the drawer of the broken desk and said, "Second, you guys, take it out."

"The account book will be given to you long ago."

Opening the book that was rarely opened in his hand, the old man said with emotion:

"You should not only keep this book, but also don't show it to outsiders. It records the dates and dates of birth of all your children."

In the yard, the candy guarding the little golden pig frowned and always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell.

"Brother, do you feel weird?"

Sitting on the bench, Mo Jingchun looked at his sister who was thinking about life, paused, and then said slowly:
"We'll understand when our fruit grows up."

This time, Candy's brows furrowed even deeper.

"Guo'er has grown up, and she's already in big classes."

"Well, then grow up a little more."

"Hmph~ Brother, you are so annoying. You always treat Guo'er as a child."

Different from relatives like Mo Jingchun, the neighbors sitting in the yard talked and laughed and talked about different topics.

Someone even played poker.

Mo Jingchun was no stranger to such a scene.I've seen a lot since I was a kid.

The sun was shining brightly, Mo Jingchun glanced at the time, and it was already ten o'clock.

After waiting for a long time, Mo Jingchun's ears moved, and it was the sound of the door opening.

Mo Jingchun looked up and saw that it was the uncle who came out.

It just doesn't look good.

"Go in and have a look."

After finishing speaking, Zhou Xing grabbed Mo Jingchun's hand and said in a low voice, "The old man told me not to let the candy in. Let that girl Li Xuanyu watch the child."

"The old man is afraid of scaring the candy."

Seeing that the candy was about to run over, Mo Jingchun winked at Li Xuanyu, and Li Xuanyu, who understood in seconds, reached out and hugged the puzzled candy.

"Sister Xuanyu, my uncle said that everyone will go in."

"They have something important to discuss, so we won't get involved."

"Oh~"

The room was crowded with people again. When Mo Jingchun saw his grandfather again, his heart sank.

Grandpa was lying on the bed in a shroud, gasping for breath, his face dark.

Even so, there was still a smile on Grandpa's face.

No one spoke, and time passed so slowly.

Until a certain moment, the half-open eyes slowly closed, and the gasping mouth was no longer open.

Instantly cried.

"Don't cry, the old man has explained that no one is allowed to cry on happy occasions."

Just as Mo Jingchun was stunned, the sound of fireworks and firecrackers sounded outside the house.

Under the big pine tree, Candy looked up at the fireworks and suddenly smiled.

Under Zhou Yaling's shocked expression, Candy smiled and said:

"Sister, actually Guo'er knows everything."

Laughing and laughing, the laughing candy shed tears silently.
