Cartoonist's Dream

"Limu, come, the fourth mother will give you a New Year's envelope."

Li Caosheng's hands supporting Li Mu finally got tired, and he put Li Mu back on the ground after teasing Li Mu, and took out a red envelope from the puffed pocket of his trouser legs and gave it to Li Mu.

"Remember, it has already been given." She specially reminded.

"Well, remember to remember."Li Mu knew that the fourth mother's reminder was not meant to be stingy.

Just like my mother prepared too many red envelopes, there should be more than 20 red envelopes in her trouser pockets. Visually, they were bulging and piled up in a pile. Even so, I was still worried that the number of red envelopes would not be enough. [

It is known that Grandma Limu has seven children.

Aunt Li Mu and his mother are 15 years apart, and they married in the north of Nanhua Bridge in their early years, which is now the commercial district and later the pedestrian street.The eldest mother's husband died early, and Li Mu didn't have a good impression of him.There are two daughters, the eldest daughter is quiet and obedient, and the younger daughter is playful and rebellious like Li Mu's sister-in-law who ran away from home. They are Li Mu's eldest cousin and fifth cousin

Limu's second mother and his mother are 12 years apart. They married in a nearby village and gave birth to two daughters. Their studies were not very good, but no matter when they were young or when they grew up, their appearance and quality were the highest among granddaughters. Even at the age of 30, they are still You can take it to the university as a school belle.The two are Limu's second cousin and third cousin.

Uncle Limu and Limu's mother are 5 years apart. He married a woman from another village and had a son. Da Limu was 1 year old, born earlier than his second cousin, and was Limu's eldest cousin.

The birth difference between Li Mu Liumu and Li Mu's mother is less than one year.Late birth and late birth gave birth to a son, who is still in his infancy.Her husband is Li Ren from the same village. He gave up farming and repaired cars for a living. Later, he opened a 4S shop and made a lot of money. After Limu graduated, his mother almost arranged to work in his 4S shop.

Qiniang, also known as Li Mu's mother, gave birth to a son.

The Li family has 3 grandchildren, 1 grandson, and 6 granddaughters, a total of 10 people. Sometimes children from neighbors in the village come to have a feast.Who was the red envelope sent to?Who didn't post it?It's hard for them to remember.

It is inevitable to give out red envelopes repeatedly, and they often ask the children to remember it by themselves.

The upper limit of the memory unit of ordinary people is between 7±2, that is to say, after more than 9 people, the memory will be confused.People who don’t study hard during special times, and those who didn’t exercise their brains in their early years naturally have trouble remembering. Besides, red envelopes are only given out once a year, so there is no chance for the brain to exercise mechanical memory.

In fact, it is difficult for children to remember whether they have received a red envelope or not.The looks of their sisters are not to say that they are printed on the same mold, but they are four or five points alike. Recognizing faces is a painful thing.When their husbands arrived at the scene later, the number of people to remember became 14 people, and the grandparents were easy to recognize and were not included in the count.

Faced with such a large number of children, children will also be confused. They can't remember who gave the red envelopes and who didn't. If both parties don't remember, they will give more red envelopes. It is necessary to prepare more red envelopes.

"Come on, this is the packet from the fourth mother." The third mother knelt down and handed it to Li Mu.

Li Mu stacked the two red envelopes and put them in his pocket.Their red envelopes are all in the same suit, and they are obviously bought together. You can buy 1 envelopes for 2 or 20 yuan.

He doesn't need to guess how much money is in the red envelope. Generally, 5 yuan is enclosed in the red envelope of his mother's family, and there are also 10 yuan. 10 yuan is generally regarded as a red envelope for husband and wife, which can save the packaging fee of a red envelope.If you say happy new year to their husbands, but those big men only say a word and do nothing else, when they sit firmly on Mount Tai.

...that is, their wives have given them red envelopes.

The child understood it, and left after paying New Year's greetings to him, and notified his partner—don't say Happy New Year to that uncle...because it is the mother who gave the money.

The money given by my natal family is very little, which is helpless. The vegetable farmers do not make much money, and the number of children is daunting.If it is 100 yuan, at least 1000 yuan will be given for a new year banquet.When Limu was the store manager, he didn't dare to seal 100 yuan. It's true that there are more children than now! ! !

I can only look at the money in the hands of my child, Liluo Lixiong, and I am greedy, but I can't be cheeky to ask for the cost.

In fact, because of the small amount of money sealed, even though I received a lot of red envelopes when I went to my grandmother's house, I couldn't even make up 200 yuan. [

After the three mothers and four mothers distributed the red envelopes, they stood at the gate of the courtyard and looked into the courtyard, only to find that the courtyard of the Li family was empty.

"Where are your parents?" The third mother turned around and asked.

"Mom and grandma have gone to pick vegetables, and dad probably won't be here until evening." Li Mu guessed that his father would be late because of gambling. Come when everyone is halfway through eating.

"Limu, are you painting? This set looks so bright, where did you buy it, and how much is it?" The fourth mother caressed the newly built easel.

"I bought it in a department store, it's not expensive."

The easel was newly bought after the manga made money, and it is a mass-produced steel product.It is said that the outer layer is painted with piano varnish, and the oil surface is so bright that it can perfectly take care of the personal shadow.The overall design adopts a folding design, which can be laid flat or tilted. There are also auxiliary rods and movable screws that can be lengthened and widened at any time.It's not expensive, but it's not cheap either. The most important thing is that it's more stable than a stretchable easel and less prone to swinging.

After it is extended, a piece of rice paper with a length of about 1200mm can be placed. At this time, the drawing board required is higher than that of Li Mu himself.Therefore, at home, prepare all kinds of tools to complete the task, and after choosing them, Da Shengnan usually carries them on his back.Since she didn't want to continue studying, Li Mu simply trained her and stayed at her home as a helper in the future.

I stayed to help my mother mop the floor, move the sundries, and "test poison" for the new dishes I gave my mother.

"Is she really your classmate?" Li Huasheng asked Li Mu with a strange look.

Thick arms and thick thighs, the whole body is full of muscles.I didn't pay attention to it at first, but now I realize that this big guy still has breasts.It squeezed out as soon as the hands hugged the chest, and there was no Adam's apple in the neck.

"Her surname is Da, and her name is Da Shengnan. She is a classmate of my fellow villager, and her development is a bit early." Li Mu gave her an affirmative answer, then turned her head and shouted: "Ah Nan!"

"Ah?" Da Shengnan didn't respond.

"Ah what, did you forget how to say it?"

"Oh, it's my first meeting. My name is Da Shengnan. I'm Limu's classmate. I live in Houcun, Pingnan, and I study in Pingnan Primary School... Auntie, happy new year." She repeated the introductory words that Limu had taught in advance like a mechanical recitation.

"Okay, okay..." Called Auntie by this black tower-like figure, Li Huasheng and Li Caosheng trembled, goosebumps rose from the soles of their feet to their heads, and they no longer suspected him.Even though she was just a weird classmate of her nephew, she still took out a red envelope without discrimination, handed it to the big guy and said:

"Come on, here is your red envelope."

"I"

"Take it." Seeing that Da Shengnan wanted to take it off, thinking that going back and forth would waste a lot of time, Li Mu immediately spit out a word.

Then, did the big man really take the red envelope obediently to his nephew without any hesitation?Hell, is this really a classmate relationship?Just now, Li Huasheng almost shook his hands in fright when his nephew yelled softly.

"Thank you, Auntie." Da Shengnan handed out a red envelope, showing a well-behaved figure that didn't fit him.

Li Huasheng felt the goosebumps that had just risen all over the ground, and he felt weird no matter how he looked at this Sheng Nan, so he quickly brought up the New Year's goods and said to Li Caosheng: "Dad should be inside, I will go first."

"Then I too..."[

Seeing that his sister ran away with his son, Li Caosheng also gave a red envelope to his "nephew's classmate" and led the two daughters away from this weird scene quickly, planning to ask his sister Li Xiuli what happened when she came back.

Watching them leave, Limu shook his head, three more children suddenly appeared in the grandmother's house, and it must be lively soon.Ink painting pays attention to calmness of mind and doesn't like to make troubles. Li Mu patted Katsuo's thigh and said:

"It seems that people have arrived, Ah Nan, bring the guy, and we will go into the bamboo forest to paint."

"Yes"
