Chapter 65
On the first day of the new year, everything is new. Yang Xiulian got up early and made breakfast. She made glutinous rice balls and put the steamed buns in a pot to boil. At this time, Ding Xiang and Ren Ziyu also got up one after another. The old man was asleep It's less.

Ding Xiang came to Wang Xiaoke's bedroom and shouted:

"Coco, get up and watch the gong and drum competition."

Ke Ke was dreaming sweetly in bed at this time, and the sound of gongs and drums came faintly beside her ears. She jumped up and quickly pushed Yao Ting who was still sleeping next to her:
"Godmother, godmother, wake up, it's New Year's Eve."

Yao Ting snorted, turned around, and fell asleep again.When Wang Xiaoke saw it, he smiled ghostly and said to himself:

"Looks like we have to use the trump card!" As he said that, he scratched Yao Ting with his little hand, and Yao Ting couldn't stand it anymore, so she opened her eyes and begged for mercy:
"Ke Ke don't make trouble, Ke Ke don't make trouble, godmother get up now!"'

"New Year's Eve, wear floral dresses!" On this day, we have to change into new clothes inside and out. Ke Ke's new clothes, her grandma has already put her on the bedside, because she is thinking about going to the gong and drum competition , so the speed of dressing is fast.After getting dressed, he pushed open the bedroom door, rushed to the bathroom, and bumped into someone's arms without noticing:
"Ke Ke, why is it so hot in the early morning? Walking without looking at people?"

"Mom, I'm sorry." After speaking, Wang Xiaoke ran away in a flash.

Ren Shuxia looked at her daughter who was growing up, and smiled wryly:
"This child, when will he change his reckless behavior!"

Li Te was still sleeping soundly at this time. His mother Yang Xiulian came to the bedroom, but he didn't notice it. Yang Xiulian looked at her son lovingly, patted her son lightly, and said with a smile:
"Tongtong, this year's New Year, wake up!"

Hearing his mother's call, Li Te quickly got up from the bed and replied:

"I'm going to wash my face and brush my teeth!"

"You didn't take off your clothes when you went to bed last night. Remember to change into new clothes today. Mom put all the clothes in the closet." Yang Xiulian said.

"Got it, Mom!" Li Te replied.

After Li Te finished washing, the others gathered around the dining table and started eating breakfast. Li Linsen smiled and said to Ke Ke at this time:
"Happy New Year!" As he said, he hung a big red envelope tied with a red string around Wang Xiaoke's neck.

"Thank you grandpa and grandma!" Wang Xiaoke thanked with a smile on his face.

Then grandpa, grandma, godmother and mother, all gave New Year's big red envelopes one after another.

After a while, Wang Xiaoke's chest was covered with big red envelopes.

Only Uncle Li Te was left, Wang Xiaoke stood up, bowed to Li Te and said with a smile:

"Uncle, Happy New Year!"

Seeing Li Te, he smiled and asked:
"Ghost girl, you are asking for a red envelope for the New Year, don't worry, uncle will send you a big red envelope on WeChat."

Wang Xiaoke clicked on WeChat and saw the transfer information sent by Uncle Li Te. After clicking on it, he exclaimed:
"1688!"

"Just get used to her." Ren Shuxia glanced at Li Te and said.

"Is it Chinese New Year, let Keke celebrate the New Year happily!" Li Te said with a smile.

"Thank you, Uncle!" Wang Xiaoke said and came to Uncle Li Te, hugging him tightly.

After breakfast, the whole family went to watch the gongs and drums competition happily. As soon as they walked to the north bank of the moat, they saw a gongs and drums team. They were two young girls in their [-]th and [-]th years, holding high a banner "Chaoyang New Village Prestige Gong and Drum Team", and the red cowhide drums lined up in the back were vigorously beaten by young drummers.The sound of cymbals, cymbals, cymbals and cymbals is like overwhelming waves, and the waves are higher than the waves. There are also dance steps taken by young girls, Yangko twisted by middle-aged and elderly women, and the sound of many crowds watching. Applauding, slowly walking towards the county seat...

Ren Ziyu saw this lively scene, and couldn't help but recite a poem:

"The sound of gongs and drums celebrates the prosperity of the world, and singing and dancing welcomes the new year."

Wang Xiaoke took her tablet and followed the team closely, recording videos along the way as a souvenir.

When Li Te saw it, he smiled and said:
"Ke Ke, when the two gong and drum teams meet at the crossroads, they want to compare each other's performance. It will be wonderful at that time."

"Really, then let's go quickly, don't fall behind, and you won't be able to see it." Wang Xiaoke said in the crowded crowd, holding Uncle Li Te tightly.

"It's okay, Keke. The New Year's show will end on the [-]th day of the first lunar month. In fact, the best thing to see is the Lantern Festival. At that time, there will be lantern shows and fireworks." Yang Xiulian said.

"Grandma, I will just start school by then." Wang Xiaoke replied helplessly.

The group of them walked slowly along with the bustling crowd. On the first day of the new year, the county town was crowded with people, and it was very lively. When acquaintances met each other, they bowed to each other to wish each other a happy new year.

Before they knew it, they came to People's Square. Wang Xiaoke saw the cartoon pig balloon dancing in the wind from a distance. She turned her head and said to her mother:

"Mom, I want balloons!"

"Ke Ke, how old are you, you still want to play with balloons!" Ren Shuxia replied angrily.

"No, no, I want balloons!" After finishing speaking, Wang Xiaoke left everyone behind and ran all the way to the small stall selling balloons...
