On the first day of the New Year, not only adults get up early, but the children also changed their usual daily needs to be urged by the adults, got up from the bed early, fetched water and washed their hands and faces. They had New Year's money to pay to the elders, and they could also wear new clothes to show off to their friends. This is their real motivation to get up.

Huan'er quietly came to her mother and uncle's house. Seeing that the two were still kneeling firmly on the ground, saying New Year's greetings: "Huan'er wishes her mother and uncle a happy new year. I hope that all her wishes will come true and give birth to a younger brother and sister."

Such New Year greetings are very special. Sang Ye touched his stomach and smiled and pointed at Huan'er's forehead: "You are very greedy, and your younger brother and sister want them all."

Huan'er also stretched out her little hand and touched her mother's belly, looking expectant: "There will be something from my brother and the younger sister will also have it, it's all in my mother's belly!"

As long as you want to be a mother, no one doesn’t want to have both children. Huan’er’s words came to Sang Ye’s heart. She took out a red purse from the drawer and stuffed it into Huan’er’s hand, and said with a smile: “Then I’ll borrow the auspicious words from Huan’er. I wish my son peace and well and peace of mind for the rest of my life!”

As she said that, she kissed Huan'er on the face, looking at his little face that turned red in an instant, and couldn't help but kiss again.

Zheng Lin had some taste, so he took the opportunity to pull Huan'er to the front, took out a purse from the drawer, squatted down and stuffed it into Huan'er's hand and said, "Uncle, I hope Huan'er will forget everything and achieve success in his studies."

Huan'er held the red envelope tightly, imitated her mother kissing him, and kissed Zheng Lin on the cheek: "Thank you uncle!"

Zheng Lin touched the place where Huan'er kissed. For no reason, he thought of the child who was still growing in his wife's belly. The smile on his face softened a little, and he couldn't help but kiss Huan'er.

After the kiss, Zheng Lin was a little stupid and turned her face uneasy, not knowing what expression she should have.

Huan'er was completely shocked, and her round eyes widened: This was the first time that uncle kissed her, and she loved her, and her mother did not lie!

Sang Ye didn't know what his son was thinking, but he felt that this scene was extremely warm, and a strong smile appeared on his face.

Not wanting that the stalemate of the big and small group will continue, she smiled and pushed the man who couldn't move: "Okay, okay, let's go out quickly, don't let parents wait for a long time."

Zheng Lin and Huan'er stopped talking, tacitly held the wife's mother's hand and walked out of the door and headed towards the front hall. Of course, they did not forget to bring the remaining purses in the drawer.

At this time, Duohua had already led her younger brothers to wait in the main hall. Without seeing her uncle and aunt, the three siblings kowtowed to their grandparents first and said a very pleasing blessing.

Of course, Old Man Zheng and Meng would not treat their grandchildren badly. In addition, they had some money left over last year, so they generously gave each child twenty cents of New Year's money, which was enough for them to buy some candy haws.

The three siblings happily accepted the heavy purses, couldn't wait to fall on the table, and counted them carefully one by one. As long as you sleep with these purses tonight for one night, you can buy them after the third day of the New Year.

Before they counted the New Year's money, Sang Ye and Zheng Lin came over with Huan'er. Huan'er let go of her mother's hand and respectfully knelt in front of Old Man Zheng and Meng, and said the congratulations that had been prepared long ago, just like Duohua's siblings.

Old Man Zheng and Meng treated Huan'er equally and gave Huan'er the same New Year's money.

Seeing this, Duohua hurriedly came up and pulled Huan'er to the table to count the New Year's money: "Count it quickly, and help me calculate how many candy and how many candy haws you can buy for these New Year's money. I'm right, I'll give you a penny of New Year's money."

He originally thought counting New Year's money was a very naive thing. When Huan'er saw Duohua's sister, she was happy to count it herself. She also said that she would give her New Year's money right, and she wanted to leave in a cold manner.

Just thinking that after leaving, Sister Duohua was nagging endlessly, he had to accept his fate and pour out the copper coins in his purse: "I will count them, and if I count them, I will help you calculate them. No matter whether I have the right one or not, I don't want your New Year's money."

After that, he learned to be like the three Duohua siblings, and childishly counted the copper coins into his wallet, intending to let the three Duohua siblings learn from him so that he would not have to calculate for them by himself.

So as not to be forced to get a penny.

Seeing the children counting with relish, Sang Ye smiled and shook his head, and knelt in front of Old Man Zheng and Meng with Zheng Lin to wish the two elders a happy New Year. However, this time, it was replaced by them to give the old man New Year’s money.

The New Year's money was prepared by Mang Ye. After consulting Zheng Lin's advice, he packed twenty taels of silver for his parents-in-law. If the two elders used the twenty taels of silver alone, it would be more than a year to spend.

The reason why Sangye gave so much was because he was worried that the two elders would be in urgent need one day, and it was embarrassing to ask for money from his daughter-in-law, so he specially prepared so much.

In fact, according to the customs of this era, silver and money are in charge of the people with the highest seniority in the family, and this has nothing to do with whether the family is divided or not. Now, Old Man Zheng and Meng have not asked for the family's financial power, and they never ask Sang Ye and Zheng Lin for silver on weekdays. Whether it is for filial piety or other things, this silver must be given.

"Oh, why don't you want so much? There are so many places to spend money, take it back quickly." Looking at the heavy purse, Meng guessed that there was a lot of silver inside, so he hurriedly waved his hand and refused to accept it.

Sang Ye stood up and smiled and put the purse in his mother-in-law's hand: "Mom, you and your father are working hard in this family on weekdays. I, a daughter-in-law, can't take out anything else to pay filial piety to my parents, so I only have this money. If you don't accept it, I, the daughter-in-law, will not be a good wife."

Meng, who wanted to refuse, heard this and said angrily: "You child, there is no daughter-in-law in our family who is more filial than you. Even if you compare it in the village, you can't find someone who is more considerate than you. We both see your filial piety!"

Upon hearing this, Sang Ye said with a shameless face: "Then you should accept these New Year's money. I will talk to the old men and women in the village tomorrow. Just praise me more in front of them. Maybe I am here, and those wives in the village will be more filial to the elderly!"

As soon as these words were said, Meng laughed, and even Zheng Lin and the old man Zheng and his son could not hold back. Sang Ye's request made the old couple unable to refuse.

Meng quietly wiped the corners of his eyes and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, the stepmother of the ancestor worshipers will visit the village and tell the old sisters about this New Year's money. I will praise you more in front of them, so that my mother can also taste what it feels like to be envied."

Sang Ye smiled even happier and said playfully: "Then the relationship is good. Then my mother tells me how those people praise me and let me enjoy it."

At this time, what she didn't know was that Old Man Zheng and Meng had praised her many times in front of her peers in the village, especially when such unbearable rumors spread, which had not been spread to the public for several days. It was these old people who were suppressing the juniors at home and they were not allowed to talk about it at will, otherwise someone would have spitted at her.

Next, Duohua, who had counted the New Year's money, also paid New Year's greetings to Sang Ye and Zheng Lin, and each got two identical purses. The New Year's money in the purses was less than what Old Man Zheng and Meng gave, and each purses was ten cents.

Even so, it would be very happy that the three brothers and sisters would pay New Year greetings to Zheng Shuiqing and Niu. In the past, the couple gave each child a purse, and there was only one penny in it. In Zheng Shuiqing's words, if he had no children, he would lose money to give three brothers and sisters a penny.

I have collected a penny purse for many years, and now two tens of them are emerging, which makes Duohua very happy. The nice blessings are even more expensive. The entire front hall is lively and warm under their chirping words.

Seeing that it was getting late, the family ate steamed buns with hot dumplings and stopped talking until they couldn't eat them. There was no way, the four villages gathered together to worship their ancestors, and the whole process lasted a long time. If they were not full, they would have to hold on when they were hungry in the middle.

After Sang Ye carefully advised Huan'er and confirmed that Huan'er could handle her lunch, Zheng Lin carried the sacrifice on one shoulder and held his wife in the other hand to the Zheng family ancestral hall in Zheng Village.

Old Man Zheng and Meng were behind him, and he still told them to abide by the rules after they arrived at the ancestral hall, so as not to make mistakes in front of their ancestors and not be blessed by their ancestors.

On the way to the ancestral hall, I met many people, and most of them carried the sacrifices to the ancestral hall. Some people got up late and didn’t have time to have breakfast, and they were holding steamed buns or steamed buns in their hands.

After walking for a while, I happened to meet my third aunt's family. The two families chatted while walking, mostly talking about which family prepared eye-catching sacrifices and which one had added new people. They specially asked the patriarch to give a good name, and fortunately, they added it to the family genealogy today.

These family matters, they sound a little bit like this. Sang Ye was listening with relish, and then his third aunt said to her mother-in-law: "Your family is good, I have a daughter-in-law this year. Later, you will beg your ancestors to bless Xiao Ye with a handle in her belly. Next year, your family will have a big grandson. From now on, the population will become more and more prosperous!"

When Meng heard this, she subconsciously glanced at Sang Ye and said to her third aunt: "Whether grandson or granddaughter, they are all the blood of the old Zheng family. I only ask his ancestors to bless Xiao Ye with safety and safety to give birth to the child."

The third aunt thought that the old sister-in-law was worried about her daughter-in-law being present and said so. She originally wanted to say a few words, but she thought it was a matter between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. As an outsider, she would inevitably offend someone, so she followed Meng's words: "It's good to bloom first and then bear fruit. Aren't all the words you ask for? "

Meng nodded and recognized Aunt San’s words.

Zheng Lin also heard the conversation and whispered to his wife: "Don't worry, this baby is our baby, no matter whether it is a man or a woman. Just as my mother said, as long as you give birth to the child safely, you won't ask for anything else."

Sang Ye was not worried. She had already made the preparation for this child, and she didn't dislike it at all. But now she heard that her mother-in-law and husband comforted her so much, and her heart was warm and sweet: "With you said, what's wrong with me? I will ask my ancestors for blessing later. If you ask for good, let's ask for good health and health."

Zheng Lin relaxed and laughed with his wife: "Okay, when we arrive at the ancestral hall, we will ask for this."

The couple bit their ears, and no matter who sees them, they can see the sweetness between them. Some are envious and disdainful. Some even clench their nails into their palms, so jealous that they can't help themselves, and they want to step forward and separate the two of them.

This person is just Niu, who appeared not far behind the couple.

Perhaps Niu's face was too ferocious, and Zheng Shuiqing could see it at a glance. He followed Niu's gaze and saw his extremely loving elder brother and sister-in-law.

Zheng Shuiqing didn't have much thoughts about Zheng Lin and Sang Ye. He was afraid and envious of Zheng Lin, the eldest brother, and could not even feel hatred or jealousy.

There is no way, the shadow brought to him by the elder brother Zheng Lin was too large, so big that he was separated from the monk and lived a down-and-out life. He only dared to hate Old Man Zheng and Meng for not seeking more benefits for him. He would never dare to hate Zheng Lin.

I envy you, naturally, I envy Zheng Lin for having the ability and marrying a wife who is also capable. If he can marry a wife who is rich and can earn money from his family, he can live a life of living even if he does nothing every day.

But he married a poor daughter of Tong Sheng's family. He was fine if he was poor without money, and his appearance and temperament were inferior to others everywhere. In this way, he had only endless envy for Zheng Lin, the eldest brother, and his increasing disgust for Niu.

At this moment, looking at Niu's face with unwilling expressions, Zheng Shuiqing said sarcastically: "What's wrong? I'm jealous of my sister-in-law having a rich family, right? Unfortunately, reincarnation is destined to be so destined, and I can't envy you. If you are unwilling to give up, just die. Maybe you will become a lady of a wealthy family if you open your eyes again, haha!"

Zheng Shuiqing and Niu knew about Niu's "Miss Dream". In the past, he thought it was special and dreamed that he followed him and dreamed that one day he had failed to pass the scholar's exam for decades, so he would be lucky to bring his son-in-law, a son-in-law, to have fun and drink.

Now several years have passed, and the daydream of the past has long disappeared, and gradually turned into endless sarcasm to his father-in-law. He is also a man who is full of words. It seems that he has read a lot of books, but he has been raised by his wife for most of his life.

Zheng Shuiqing did not expect that he was idle, and he was also supported by others for more than 20 years. Compared with his father-in-law, he was not considered a man.

After hearing Zheng Shuiqing's ridicule, Niu was not as angry as Zheng Shuiqing imagined. She looked at Zheng Shuiqing coldly, with disgust in her eyes.

Evil was almost pouring out: "If I really die, I will definitely kill you, the useless waste, to bury you!"
