Chapter 355 The first red envelope

"Hawazi, happy new year!"

Cang Hai just got up, and after washing up, he walked out of the door and heard Uncle Wei Wenkui say Happy New Year to him.

"Uncle Wei, happy new year!" Cang Hai hurriedly arched at Wei Wenkui. "Have you even got up yet?" Wei Wenkui said with a smile.

Cang Hai nodded and glanced at the situation around him with his eyes: "I guess yes!"

Wei Wenkui saw Cang Hai coming out, so he sat in his pocket and took out a red envelope: "Happy New Year, happy family!"

When Cang Hai heard this, he immediately received the red envelope and didn't care about anything outside. Anyway, the clothes he was wearing were thick, so he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Wei Wenkui: "Thank you uncle, you are happy for your family. At the same time, I wish you a big grandson as soon as possible!"

"I love hearing these words!" Wei Wenkui smiled and pulled Canghai up from the ground.

The customs here are the elders who give red envelopes, and the younger generations must kowtow. I don’t know when there will be such rules. This is the way to hit Canghai as long as I can remember.

"Where are you going? Grandpa Hu's house is going to ask for red envelopes?" Cang Hai said with a smile.

Don’t look at Wei Changkui who is in his decades. He still has to kowtow to elders like Canghai, just like Canghai.

After Cang Hai finished speaking, he saw Wei Changsheng. Wei Changhao and Wei Changli walked out of the kiln at Uncle San’s house. They all had smiles on their faces and held a red envelope in their hands.

The three of them had just left the kiln door of Cang Shiyuan's home. When they saw Cang Hai walking out, their eyes lit up immediately and they bent their waists at Cang Hai in unison: "Happy New Year, Brother Cang Hai!"

After saying that the New Year was happy, my waist stopped straightening, but they stretched out their palms and made a move to rub money. It was obvious that they wanted New Year's New Year's money.

Cang Hai saw it and said with a smile: "Wait a minute, I'll go back and get you a red envelope!"

I just woke up in the morning, Canghai was not prepared at all.

As he said that, he turned back to the room, searched for a while, but found nothing. He immediately came to the bedroom, sat next to Shi Wei and pushed Shi Wei: "Hey, Shi Wei, where is the red envelope prepared by our family?"

Shi Wei opened her eyes and said in a daze: "Isn't it in the blue and white bed on the living room table?"

"Is that?" Cang Hai asked.

"It's inside, the one on the left," Shi Wei said.

After hearing this, Cang Hai patted his head: "I forgot, I just touched the jar on the right."

After saying that, Cang Hai walked out of the bedroom again, came to the living room, reached into the blue and white ornaments on the left, and found a red envelope.

Holding seven or eight red envelopes, Cang Hai turned to the door of the bedroom and asked Shi Wei who was still asleep inside, "What kind of dumplings do you want to eat in the morning?"

"casual"

After getting this answer, Cang Hai opened the curtain and walked out of the kiln, giving the red envelopes in his hands to Changsheng, Changli and Changhao three siblings.

"Thank you, second brother!"

The three guys thanked each other, bowed deeply to Canghai, then stretched out their hands to receive the red envelope, straightened their bodies happily, and smiled in front of Canghai, took out the new ten dollars, and put them in their pockets.

The New Year’s New Year’s money in Sijiaping Village is ten yuan, but it has not increased for many years. Canghai remembers that the year he was a child was only fifty cents.

In many places, the New Year red envelopes are quite large, and they are given thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars. A half-aged child receives a thick stack of money.

But for the people in the town, New Year's money and New Year's red envelopes are a beautiful meaning. They do not depend on the amount of money, nor do they add unnecessary burdens to each family's life. Usually, they are small money. No matter how rich people give their children, they can only give them fifty or even hundreds of dollars.

People who pay money are also particular. Those who pay money are young people who are not married, children, or juniors, and those who give money are married or elders.

Wei Changsheng and his three siblings asked Canghai for New Year’s money because Canghai married Shi Wei, the second sister-in-law, back this year. The married brother can ask for money. If Canghai is not married, Canghai will not have to give them New Year’s money.

The custom here is that marriage is considered a formal adult. The old saying goes, starting a family and starting a business, and becoming a family is considered a formal recruitment to formal adults. So today, the red envelopes of Canghai can only give to his peers but not to receive them. If they want to receive them, they will also be miserable.

The Wei brothers and sisters happily received the red envelopes, turned their heads and walked towards the entrance of Li Licheng's kiln.

Wei Wenkui greeted Canghai and then followed him into the kiln of his brother-in-law Cang Shiyuan's house.

Canghai arrived at the kitchen and set the fire on his own. When the water boiled, he put two bowls of dumplings, waited for the dumplings to be ready, took them up and prepared dipping sauce. The two bowls of dumplings were brought into the house with dipping sauce, and directly placed the small kang stool on the bed.

"Get up and have dinner." Cang Hai pushed Shi Wei, who was sleeping in a confused manner.

While pushing, he took a bite and put the aromatic dumplings next to Shi Wei's nose.

Shi Wei was sleeping in a daze. She smelled the fragrance of dumplings in her nose. She slapped her two delicate noses and quickly opened her eyes.

"It smells so good!"

Cang Hai smiled and put half of the dumplings in his mouth, put down the chopsticks, took a pillow and placed it behind Shi Wei, and then sat Shi Wei halfway up.

Seeing Cang Hai like this, Shi Wei said happily, "I haven't brushed my teeth yet."

"Don't pay attention to this in the New Year. Keep sleeping after eating the dumplings!" Cang Hai said as he pushed another bowl of dumplings on the kang table in front of Shi Wei.

"I put a little of them all in all. The black ones are made of horse vegetables, the white ones are made of pure meat, and the green ones are made of leeks or celery. Whatever I eat depends on luck. Be careful, maybe you can get the money you can get." Cang Hai said and put another pair of chopsticks on the table in Shi Wei's hand.

"It's not good on the first day of the New Year, isn't this good?" Shi Wei said with a smile.

According to the old custom, if you do it on the New Year day, it means you will do it all year round. The old custom means auspiciousness.

Shi Wei's words mean that Canghai serves himself like this on the first day of the Lunar New Year, so he will do this all year round. Usually, women will put dumplings on their own men and children today, rather than doing the opposite as they do now.

"It's just one year to make it. Now I'll bring you dumplings. When you're old, you'll push me a wheelchair and we have a head and a tail," Cang Hai said jokingly.

"Hahaha!" Shi Wei was amused by Cang Hai. She picked up the chopsticks and didn't care about brushing her teeth. She started eating dumplings in big mouthfuls.

After the two of them finished eating the dumplings, Canghai put the kang table on the side, and then put the bowls, chopsticks and other things back in the kitchen. After Shi Wei enjoyed her lover's service, she lay back in the quilt and continued to sleep happily.

When Canghai came back, he felt a little bored when he saw Shi Wei lying on the ground again. He left the kiln and moved to Mengmeng's room. He reached out and knocked on the window gently, wanting to see if Qi Yue and Mengmeng's two lazy ones have become lazy again.

The result was self-evident. Mengmeng and Qi Yue didn't even say a word, but the two guys, Shatou and Tietou, heard the movement and ran out.

After playing with Shutou and Tietou for a while, Cang Hai drove the two guys into the kitchen, turned to Qi Feng and Xu Xiaomin at the entrance of the kiln, and knocked on the door twice.

Just as he was about to leave, Xu Xiaomin's voice came from the kiln: "Who is it?"

"Godmother, it's me. Have you gotten up? I'll cook dumplings for you two," Canghai said.

Hearing Canghai's voice, Xu Xiaomin hurried to the kiln gate, reached out and opened the kiln gate, opened the curtain, smiled at Canghai, "Get up!"

Cang Hai stretched his head in and said Happy New Year to Qi Feng. Qi Feng took out a red envelope from his pocket.

Canghai didn't need to squeeze it, so he knew that there was a lot of money inside, and the thick stack should be ten thousand yuan.

"Godfather, we didn't give so much, it's only ten yuan. I can't accept it if you give it too much. This thing is just a good order, and the amount cannot be too much." Cang Hai immediately put the red envelope back into Qi Feng's hands.

The red envelopes in the Magic City are generally given a lot, hundreds or thousands, or even tens of thousands, depending on the situation of your family, but in general, they are given a lot. Compared with those with children, the red envelopes are mutual. If you give them to my children, then I will also give them to your children. The account will be cleared in two seconds, and no one will suffer any loss. However, for unmarried elders, if there are so many younger generations at home, they will only leave but not come in, and the heart will be hurt. It is really a considerable burden.

"I know, but this is for you, and others will have ten yuan." Qi Feng pushed the red envelope back.

Canghai still said: "Godfather, the things like New Year's money red envelopes are just the meaning. If you give them too much, just come here according to our habits."

Qi Feng stopped pushing him now, and he knew that Canghai was not short of this ten thousand yuan, so he had to put away the big red envelope, took a small red envelope containing ten yuan from his pocket and handed it to Canghai: "Canghai, happy New Year!"

Canghai then took the red envelope and said, "Thank you godfather, thank you godmother, you two are also happy New Year."

After saying that, Cang Hai bowed deeply to the two of them. In fact, according to custom, Cang Hai should kowtow if he receives red envelopes from his elders, but Cang Hai is afraid of scaring these two, so he changed to bowing.

After the lively fun, Canghai, Qi Feng, Xu Xiaomin and the other two went to the kitchen to cook dumplings. When the dumplings were about to get better, the old man Qu Guowei and Xu Sheng, who had long legs, arrived just in time. Canghai had to put the dumplings on two plates and let the four of them eat them separately, and he put in three more bowls of dumplings.

After eating the dumplings, he received the red envelope from the two old men, and Canghai went to Uncle San’s house to get the red envelope.

"Uncle San, Aunt San Happy New Year!"

As soon as Cang Hai entered the door, he whispered to Uncle and Aunt San and said.

Cang Shiyuan took out the red envelope and waved at Canghai.

Cang Hai immediately understood and knelt down directly, kowtowed to Uncle San and received the red envelope. Seeing that Aunt San took out another red envelope from his pocket, Cang Hai quickly sent another one for Aunt San, and then happily carried the 20 yuan red envelope and continued to go to his uncle's house.

When I went to my uncle's house, I kowtowed twice and made a red envelope of twenty yuan, but I also went out two red envelopes. In addition to my cousin Cang Jing, Cang Henan also received red envelopes from Cang Shigui's family. Cang Hexing is my brother and has not been married yet, so I have saved the red envelope for Cang Hai.

After rushing to the family of the uncle and uncle of the same surname, Canghai went to Hu Shijie's house again.

It was so lively when I arrived at Hu Shijie's kiln. When I picked up the curtain, the whole family was full of people. As soon as I entered the house, I saw Hu Mingguang and his wife kneeling side by side on the ground, all of whom were asking for money at Hu Shijie. Hu Mingguang and his three grandchildren were all smiling, and they all saw what happened last night. "Big, give a red envelope!"

As soon as Hu Guangming and his wife kowtowed, they knelt on the ground without getting up and shook their hands. Hu Shijie took out two red envelopes from his pocket with a smile, and handed them to his son and daughter-in-law.

At the same time, he was saying good-looking words: "Everything will be good in the New Year, and life will be prosperous."

"Thank you!"

The couple received the red envelope and stood up from the ground with a smile.

When Cang Hai saw that the seat was empty, he grabbed the front and was about to kowtow to Grandpa Hu to receive red envelopes. Who knew that before he approached, Hu Mingguang and his wife squeezed aside.

"What's the hurry, you kid? We haven't kowtowed yet?" Hu Mingguang smiled and nudged Canghai.

Cang Hai smiled and said, "I have to drive the next family!"

"What are you here alone for? Where are you a doctor?"

"I can't wait. Shi Wei is still asleep. Don't worry, do you think you can save my wife's red envelope?" Cang Hai said jokingly.
