Chapter 82
I was so tired on the first day of the new year, it seems that if I am not afraid of thieves stealing, I am afraid of thieves thinking about it. Only now do I know that this sentence is really classic.On the second day of the Lunar New Year, we went to my grandma’s house according to the original plan. My uncle made a lot of money this year. This time, I felt much better when I entered the house. The room was very warm, and the charcoal must have been burned.

"Grandma, grandpa, we wish you a new year." We said three kowtows to my grandma and grandpa.

"Good boy, get up, here is a red envelope for you." Saying this, my grandparents stuffed the red envelopes prepared in advance into our hands.

"Dachun, why are you at your mother's house today? Don't you want to go to your in-laws' house to pay New Year's greetings?" Although my grandma knew that we were separated, she must celebrate the New Year by herself, but New Year's greetings are always indispensable.

"Mom, Dad, I haven't accompanied Dachun back to my mother's house for many years. This year we will come today and tomorrow, aren't you happy?" My father rushed to say without waiting for my mother's answer.

"Happy, I'm even happier when you see the sky." My grandma couldn't be happier.

"Uncle, Aunt, and Aunt, we also wish you New Year's greetings." He said and bowed to them.

"Good boy, come and take the red envelopes." One by one, they were stuffed into my hands.

This is the first time I have seen my aunt. She is about sixteen or seventeen years old. She was considered a big girl in ancient society. I don’t know why she is not married yet.

"I lowered my head and asked my mother." My mother couldn't help being curious, she didn't think so much at all before, yes, why is my little sister not married yet when she is old.

"You little ones, let's go out and play together. Boss, take your cousins ​​with you." We came to my grandma's house today for a drink, but we didn't bring Wang Chong and Qian Xiaoting with us, and let the three of them guard the house.

"Okay, let's go." I didn't want to follow these hairy kids, but I couldn't resist my eldest cousin and second cousin and went out.

"It's fine for you to play, why are you still dragging me." I am very familiar with the first cousin and the second cousin, and I am not polite when talking.

"You are also a child. My mother asked me to invite you to play. You see, our family bought a lot of firecrackers, and we went to play together." It is estimated that these two people really treat me as my aunt. I followed them out into the wild.

My uncle and my father followed my grandfather and three men to drink and chat in the living room, and the rest of my eldest aunt and several women chatted in the back room.

"Mother, my little sister is not young anymore, haven't you talked about her yet?" My mother was just asking around, since I haven't been home for more than ten years and know very little about my family.

"No, this year it was your elder brother who went out to work for a few months before earning some money. Your little sister doesn't have a dowry, who would be willing to take it, and we are reluctant to ask for it. Either it is filling, or it is Auntie, we are reluctant, now that we have stayed so long, hey, we must find a good family this year." My grandma said helplessly.

My aunt smiled bitterly, probably because she didn't care, and it wasn't because she wasn't in a hurry, but no matter how anxious she was, there was nothing she could do.

"Mother, it doesn't matter, you can find someone to live with, and I will give you a dowry. The little girl is so old now, so I can't delay." My mother was so distressed.

"How can this be? Your elder brother said that he will go to work at the owner's house after the new year. This year your elder brother brought back 20 taels of silver. 20 taels. The dowry of the younger sister is still from us. How can a married girl give it to you? .” My eldest aunt hastily declined.Up to this time, my eldest aunt still didn’t know that I was the grower of the greenhouse vegetables, and my uncle was still tight-lipped. I said not to say it, but now my family members don’t know.

"Okay, I can always add make-up to my little sister." My mother saw that her sister-in-law kept refusing, and she also understood that a dowry for a girl who married out could not be justified, so she let it go and never mentioned it.

"Sister, sister-in-law, thank you for your concern." My aunt was very excited. My sister and sister-in-law were really kind to me.

"Silly girl, if you see something suitable, you should tell me, this marriage is a lifetime thing." My mother told my aunt as someone who has been here.

"Then, then it will become a private relationship." My aunt was taken aback.

"What's the private relationship? I mean, if you like it, let's send someone to inquire about it. We hope you will marry someone you like." My mother remembered the bad things that happened in the old hospital. Uncle is not a reliable man, but fortunately my mother married the second child who the family doesn't like.

"Okay, what are you talking about now? Today is the second day of the Lunar New Year. I'm happy." Seeing that the atmosphere was a little gloomy, my grandma quickly changed the subject.

"That's right, Dachun, can you tell the owner about the opening of the new year? Let the third and fourth children of our family go with us. It's okay to be a helper. No money is required." My eldest aunt was afraid that my mother would refuse, so she quickly said no money.

"How old is your child?" My mother was a little unclear.

"Our eldest is 14 years old, 22 years old, 30 years old, and [-] or [-] years old. You see, your elder brother has gone to work. It would be great if you can let the younger ones learn some carpentry skills too. It will be considered in the future. A good job."

"You don't plan to let the child go to school. The eldest is a bit older, but literacy is also good." My mother also understood that literacy is necessary for doing business under my education, or she would even be an accountant. Not to mention being the shopkeeper.

"Dachun, look at the situation in my family. We are thinking about it, but we only have this heart. The eldest is going to marry a wife soon. What do you think we can do?" My aunt said very powerlessly.

"Then if there is a chance, would you like your brother to study?"

"Dachun, which parents don't want to, I would be happy if only four of us can go to study."

"Well, let's talk about it later, let the fourth child of your family go to the private school. Our eldest girl said that his uncle's carpentry work is very good. What kind of furniture shop will be opened this year, and you may give it all to him at that time." My buddies are all studying. We don’t need our family at all.” My mother still thinks it’s unreliable to promise too much, but I can still say something about letting me study in a dead form.

"Okay. It's all up to you." My eldest aunt also thought that my mother was just joking. It costs a lot of money for a student to study in a private school for a year.

"Dachun, you didn't go to the old home today. You have nothing to do. I think you should go tomorrow. As long as you come back, mother will be happy." My grandma saw that my mother and my father planned to come back today and tomorrow. , always feel bad.

"Mother, when we come back here, we also agreed with the old courtyard to go back on the fifth day of the new year. Don't worry, he just made a mistake and wants to make up for it. You can just let him go." My mother thought my father wanted to make up for the previous paragraph. My mother is not happy with this arrangement.
