On the afternoon of the first day of the New Year, Chen Ye and his son Chen Jingchu came to the compound to pay New Year's greetings.

Looking at Chen Jingchu squatting in the yard with a frown on his face, Fu Xiao walked over with a smile, "What are you thinking about?"

He was a little embarrassed for a moment. He looked up and saw that the elders were chatting and didn't notice him. He waved his hand at her and said, "I found something very interesting."

"What's the matter?" She squatted down like him and asked in a low voice.

"The gifts we brought here today,"

Fu Xiao smiled, "What's wrong with the gift?"

When people come here to pay New Year’s greetings, some will bring something, while some come empty-handed. No matter what, it’s a token of their love and there’s nothing to be picky about.

Chen Jingchu laughed and said, "I remember the mark on the gift box very clearly. I remember that on the day of the Little New Year, I clearly mentioned this box of gifts to Wu Yaofeng's house. I don't know when it came back to my house. Hey, I came to your house again today. Don't you think it's interesting?"

Fu Xiao started laughing. He pushed her and said, "Don't laugh. It won't look good if the adults find out."

She was still smiling and waving her hands, "It's okay, this is normal."

"Are you going to visit your grandpa's relatives tomorrow?"

Chen Jingchu nodded, and she continued, "When you bring the gift, you can also put a mark on it. Believe it or not, in a few days, the gift may return to your home."

"That can't be possible,"

"You'll know if you try it,"

Fu Xiao had known about this phenomenon for a long time. For families with many relatives, the biggest function of gifts is turnover.

The gift you bought was sent to relative A's home, the gift from relative A's home was sent to relative B's home, and the gift from relative B's home was sent to relative C's home.

Finally, the gifts from relative C's house returned to your house.

It is very likely the gift you gave away in the first place.

After wandering outside for a while, it came back by itself!

Li Xiufen once told her that the ultimate result of visiting relatives is to turn a piece of fresh meat into something smelly, and then eat the smelly meat.

Of course, this is a bit of an exaggeration.

The meat won't go bad in this weather, but it will definitely not be fresh.

After the Chen father and son left, Fu Xiao suddenly had an idea and marked all the gifts in the house with a pen.

Mu Lianshen saw her actions and asked her what she was doing?

After she told him the truth, he couldn't help laughing, and Grandpa Mu also laughed: "Hahaha, you are right, but our family is not that exaggerated. We don't have any other relatives outside. At most, there are your father's teachers. Bring some things when you go there."

He pointed at the things that the Chen family brought and said, “Good boy, unpack the things that the Chen family brought. You can’t go around again, or it will break.”

"Okay,"

She squatted down and opened it, and smiled, "Grandpa, it really can't be broken, it's cigarettes and alcohol."

"It won't go bad. Take it out and put it aside. Let your dad keep it for smoking. Or we can change the packaging and give it away."

The two looked at each other and smiled: "Hey,

Good idea.

...

On the second day of the Chinese New Year, everything goes well.

On the third day, what you wish for comes true.

The fourth day of the New Year brings peace and joy.

On the fifth day, welcome the God of Wealth.

The fifth day of the Lunar New Year is commonly known as Po Wu, and is a day to get rid of the five kinds of poverty, including poverty of wisdom, poverty of learning, poverty of literature, poverty of fate, and poverty of social relations.

Get up at dawn, set off firecrackers and clean the house.

Set off firecrackers from inside to outside, while walking towards the door.

It is said that all unlucky things should be blasted away.

Fu Xiao sat at the dining table, covered his ears, and listened to the sound of firecrackers until they stopped. Then he put down his hands and started eating breakfast.

Mr. Mu picked up a piece of food for her with his chopsticks and asked with a smile: "When will Ayu and the others come to Beijing?"

"I don't know. I'll call and ask today."

Mu Lianshen asked: "When does school start?"

"After the first month of the lunar year,"

"Yes, my dear is a freshman of the class of 77 and will be enrolled in the spring."

Fu Xiao nodded and agreed with Grandpa Mu. The freshmen of the class of 1977 would enter school in the spring of 1978, and the class of 1978 would enter school in the fall.

The two enrollments were only half a year apart.

"After you enter school, you should have military training for a period of time."

Fu Xiao smiled casually, "These are all trivial matters."

Mr. Mu looked at Mu Lianshen and said, "When you have dinner tonight, ask the Wu family boy who is in charge of the military training for the children of Beijing University."

"Um."

She smiled and said, "Grandpa, no matter who is in charge, there is no need to say hello in advance..."

"I'm just asking,"

Mu Lianshen said calmly: "The military training in your school will not be too strict, but your third brother and second brother are different. Those two schools will have closed military training for two months."

"Really?" Fu Xiao asked in surprise.

"Yeah," he nodded in confirmation.

I have to tell them in advance, Fu Xiao thought to himself.

In the study.

After listening to what Fu Xiao said, Fu Sui smiled indifferently, "Sister, brother is not afraid of uncle's training, so how can he be afraid of a little military training?"

"For me, it's probably just like playing,"

She smiled and said, "Okay, as long as you know what's going on, when will you come over?"

Fu Sui hesitated for a while and said uncertainly: "I need to discuss it with Nan Nan, let's go together."

"Okay, I'll hang up now. I have to contact my brother."

After hanging up the phone, she called Fu Yu again to confirm the time to come to Beijing. Hearing that he would come on the eighth day of the first lunar month, Fu Xiao hurriedly asked, "Then how are you coming? I'll arrange someone to pick you up?"

Fu Yu chuckled: "My uncle is going to Beijing for a meeting, so I just happened to go with him."

"Well, that's good. The eighth day... then you should arrive on the morning of the ninth day," Fu Xiao secretly calculated the time in his heart.
