Chapter 56 Interesting facts about New Year's money, discussing the past again


Although I went to bed late, the whole family got up early in the morning on the first day of the new year.The second uncle and the younger uncle went back after observing the New Year yesterday, and they probably will come to pay New Year's greetings in a while.

With the improvement of living standards, children seem not to have the excitement of "Celebrating the New Year and wearing new clothes" before.But the Lin family still values ​​this custom, so every year on the first day of the new year, everyone from old to young is completely new.

This year, the sugar bag is a Hanfu style down jacket that my second aunt asked an acquaintance to order a few years ago. It may be because the tailor has been in a theater troupe, so the patterns and buckles are quite distinctive.

Tangbao’s favorite is a small shoulder bag that goes with her clothes. Not only is it pretty, but it also has a lot of space inside. In the words of my grandma, this year her New Year’s money is enough even if she collects double.

So, after breakfast, the candy bag was accompanied by my uncle to collect the New Year's money... Wrong, it's New Year's greetings!Lin Jiajia looked at the little guy with a look of certainty, and felt that the little red envelopes she was going to give out this year might not be enough!

Sure enough, the sugar bag came back after going out for more than an hour, because her small satchel was already full.In addition to the few given by the family before going out, I received more than 30 pieces here and there.

Lin Jiajia took it apart and looked at it, and was relieved to find that it was all 10 yuan. These should be given by the neighbors and acquaintances around, and they were all given one when they looked at the children. The picture is auspicious and lively.

Here Lin Jiajia has just tidied up the red envelopes in the small satchel, and the second uncle and the younger uncle's family have come.After kowtowing to the old man and the old lady, the first thing to do after the New Year's greetings is to greet the sugar bag to take the New Year's money.

After previous experience, Tang Bao is already very familiar with the routine of "Gong Xi Fa Cai, bring the red envelope", but when facing people who are closer, he will pay extra attention.For example, to a few grandmas, it is the blessing of "youth will last forever, beauty will last forever", which made her small satchel bulge in an instant.

Seeing this, Chen Xiaofei thought of teasing her, so she asked Tangbao grandma, what should her younger aunt say?Tang Bao tilted his head and thought for a while, and said "Aunt forever".

Chen Xiaofei was very happy, and hurriedly sent today's second big red envelope, shaking Lin Jiajia's head.

But Tangbao immediately encountered a problem, because he did not receive the lucky money after paying his respects to the youngest uncle, so a classic reversal short drama was staged.

"Uncle brackets, where's my red envelope?"

"I have no money!"

"Then I won't give you New Year's greetings in the future!"

"Then do you have money?"

"Of course there is!"

"Then I wish you New Year's greetings?"

"Okay!"

"Sugar bag, happy Chinese New Year!"

"Hey, you lied to my red envelope!! Grandma! Uncle lied to my red envelope! Huh~"

"..."

In the end, the red envelope of Tangbao was saved, and the parentheses that fooled the niece also lost a sum of New Year's money.

……

Because in the city, Lin Mingxu's family didn't have the habit of walking around to pay New Year's greetings, only Qiaoqiao received three big red envelopes after getting up.

Li Jinyu (Aunt Li) couldn't help sighing when she heard the movement outside and looked at her deserted home.Ordinarily there are four people in the family, so it shouldn't be so deserted, but the old couple can't be lively!

It is reasonable that the grandson is not very talkative because of his health, but the son?Li Jinyu said that it would be nice to be able to give a smiling face when talking face to face!Of course, it may also be the reason why she is the only woman in the family.

Li Jinyu looked at Lin Guowen (Lin Mingxu's father) who was watching TV by himself while holding a teacup, and decided to have a good talk to make an alliance for herself. She wanted to ask about her son's relationship.

"Old Lin, do you feel deserted at home?" Li Jinyu led his wife to talk about the topics he wanted to talk about.

Lin Guowen looked away from the TV, pulled his wife to sit on the sofa, "I know what you want to say, I just have some ideas, you sit down and let's talk slowly."

Li Jinyu glanced at his son's study, and then slowly said, "Ming Xu should have someone to talk to, and I seem to care about it, but every time I ask, I get off topic. I know I was right before." Living with him, but it's been so many years, he can't be so vigilant at home all the time!"

Seeing his wife getting excited again, Lin Guowen patted her hand reassuringly, signaling to be calm, "Jinyu, he is 32 this year, and he is considered a person outside his size. You can't keep treating him like a child!"

Seeing that his wife was still a little unconvinced, Lin Guowen sighed, and said patiently: "I know you hope that he will hurry up and start a family again, and I also know that after a lesson, you won't interfere so much this time! But we can Bet, can he? That will kill the remaining half of his life!"

"me……"

Li Jinyu's eyes turned red as she spoke, she never thought of ruining her son.At that time, I just felt that Xu Na had a good personality, and her parents were still her colleagues, so she wanted her son to marry her favorite daughter-in-law.I didn't expect...

Oh, don't mention it!

Lin Guowen knew that the two women still had knots in their hearts, so he always disapproved of forcibly getting together.The year when my son was transferred to the town, one was to follow the trend, and the other was to give himself a space to breathe freely.

Until the end of autumn, because Qiaoqiao missed his father, he let his wife and grandson live there for a few days.He thought that his son's knots were almost gone, but he never thought of shrinking back after talking about a new partner.

"Jinyu, he has to go his own way after all. Whether it's happiness or tragedy, we can't interfere easily. Unless he asks us for help." Lin Guowen doesn't think his son can't handle these things well, he might just I am afraid that my feelings will be led astray by my parents again.

……

Tangbao has been waiting for her grandpa to help her realize her wish since she ate "Cai Dumplings" on New Year's Eve, but she didn't see her grandpa asking her, so she went to find her by herself.

Father Lin was currently chatting with the old man and the old lady on the porch, basking in the sun, and when he saw the sugar bag running over, he showed a big smile.For Lin's father, the sugar bag is not only a granddaughter, but also an emotional sustenance.

In fact, he did have a younger sister, but died in infancy.Erhua and Xiaoyue may not have much memory, but he always remembers that poor sister in his heart.

It is said that the niece is with the aunt, but Jiajia's appearance is biased towards the Wang family, so he still has a little regret.But he didn't expect that after Tangbao grew up day by day, there would be a shadow of his younger sister in his facial features, which surprised him endlessly.

Seeing Tangbao bouncing towards him now, he suddenly remembered the scene when his sister ran towards him when he was a child.

Tang Bao said hello to grandpa and grandma first, then ran to grandpa and whispered, "Grandpa, when will my wish come true?"

Only then did Father Lin remember what happened last night, and asked her curiously what her wish was.But Tang Bao hesitated. Compared with last year's ignorance, she is one year older and already has her own understanding of "divorce".So, she didn't know whether to make that wish!
But if you don't say it now, will you have no chance to say it in the future?Tang Bao rubbed his little fleshy hands, feeling a bit embarrassed, "Grandpa, I said, you have to promise me not to be angry?"

Father Lin was even more curious about the wish of the sugar bag when he heard this, and how difficult a request can a child make?No matter what the sweetheart's wish is, he will satisfy it, "Grandpa will definitely not be angry, let's talk about it!"

"I want to see Dad!" After Tang Bao finished speaking, he looked at Father Lin eagerly, for fear that Grandpa would say no.

Father Lin wasn't angry, but he was really embarrassed by the sugar bag.Last year, after Tangbao was ridiculed by children in kindergarten, Jiajia tried to find friends who could still be contacted before to find out what the Zhao family thought about Tangbao.

But the result of the inquiring made Jiajia give up the idea of ​​letting Tangbao know about her father, and she no longer deliberately told Tangbao that she has a good father.Therefore, he really couldn't realize the wish of the sugar bag.

However, he had to be more tactful, "Tang Bao, if you want to find Dad, you have to ask Mom first! Grandpa is not familiar with him either!" He had to talk to Jia Jia quickly to resolve this matter. Well, it's even harder to explain if the sugar pack gets bigger.

"Oh, that's right! I can find my mother!" Tangbao has been entangled in finding his grandfather to realize his wish, but he forgot that his mother is the person who is more familiar with his father!
She is going to find her mother and ask her father!It's been a year, when will Dad's work end?



　Lin Mingxu's parents will be referred to by their first names later on, otherwise the writing will become more chaotic.
