This book follows a harmonious route, where a silly and cute female lead finds simple happiness. It's lighthearted, slow-paced, and focuses on daily life!
Waking up, Song Jinxiu found her...
This is the first time that Liu Ankang brings his friends home!
Song Jinxiu picked up the fruit plate on the table and handed it to Liu Ankang, asking him to greet his friends.
The children have big pockets on both sides of their clothes, which they can use to carry melon seeds, peanuts and candies when visiting friends and family.
When it’s full, go home, empty it out, and continue running around.
Everyone took the candy peanuts and ran away.
In this way, Song Jinxiu stayed at home for three days. Apart from the occasional children coming to pay New Year's greetings, the most she did was practice calligraphy.
She needs to correct her dog-crawling posture immediately.
Also, the book was read by the original person, so now she has to translate it in her mind when she reads it.
You must read more books to familiarize yourself with it as soon as possible.
Song Jinxiu: The happiest time of the day is when I read and write. The feeling of not being able to process the knowledge is so fascinating!
Hard work pays off. After three days of diligent writing, I finally got three days of results.
At least I can understand it!
The papers used for practicing calligraphy are also put away and used to start fires when cooking. The dark history must be destroyed!
On the fourth day of the New Year, Song Jinxiu couldn't wait to visit Aunt Cuihua's house.
I only know a few people here, and if I really want to visit someone, there's nowhere else to go.
But not going out and not allowing yourself to go out are two different things.
I am happy to stay at home for a month or two, but it is very uncomfortable to be forced not to go out.
"Auntie, Happy New Year!" Song Jinxiu found that only Aunt Cuihua was at home. "Where are they?"
"They all went out to play." Aunt Cuihua was cutting the pattern of shoes, and her hands did not stop moving while she spoke.
"You don't have to look at me, just look at the scissors. I'm afraid you'll cut your hand." Song Jinxiu said quickly.
When Aunt Cuihua saw me come in, she looked up at me without stopping her hands.
"No, I don't. It's just something I'm used to." He put down the things in his hand.
She took out a red envelope from her pocket and handed it to Song Jinxiu. "Happy New Year, Xiao Song. This is the New Year's money from your auntie. I hope you will be safe and sound this year."
Nowadays, red envelopes are made by cutting and folding red paper yourself.
"I have a share too!" Song Jinxiu accepted it with surprise and said happily. "Thank you, auntie!"
Liu Ankang also had one before, with a hundred yuan in it. It wasn’t a lot of money, but he did it just for the sake of celebration.
(Ten thousand equals one dollar, one thousand equals ten cents, and one hundred equals one cent. No problem!)
Song Jinxiu put the red envelope into her pocket and touched her other pocket.
I was originally planning to give Niu Dan a red envelope of 100 yuan, but now I have to change it to 200 yuan.
"Oh, Xiao Song. A relative from Xiao Hulu came to visit these days and said that some cadres would go to their village to carry out something at the end of the year. Let me think about what it was called."
Aunt Cuihua thought for a moment and said, "Oh, right, the agricultural production mutual aid group."
"What do you do?" Song Jinxiu asked curiously.
"It's about helping each other!" Aunt Cuihua said. "Team members cultivate the land together. Those who are strong contribute, and those who are less strong do other things. After the harvest, we will distribute the profits according to our work."
"It sounds great!" Song Jinxiu's eyes lit up. It was just right for her.
"Auntie, An An and I have six acres of land, right? Do you have all the members in your team? Do you want to take us with you?"
"Hahaha. I won't take you with me!" Aunt Cuihua said with a smile.
"Auntie." Song Jinxiu held Aunt Cuihua's hand and said coquettishly. "Take us with you! Although I don't know how to do it, I can learn!"
Or, I can cook for you and you can just sleep at home all day.
When the food is distributed, you will also be counted as a share. How about that? I am being filial!"
Song Jinxiu was drawing a big cake for Aunt Cuihua.
"Hahaha! I'm really moved when you say that!" Aunt Cuihua said with a smile.
"Yeah, yeah. So..." Song Jinxiu was interrupted before she could finish her words.
"But I still won't take you with me! Hahaha!" Aunt Cuihua said with a smile.
"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore!" Aunt Cuihua said, looking at Song Jinxiu's little face.
"What do you know most about our village?" asked Aunt Cuihua.
"Mountain? Tree?" Song Jinxiu guessed.
"Silly, you're a strong laborer!" Aunt Cuihua knocked her on the head.
"Well, what next?" Song Jinxiu asked, touching her head.
There is nothing wrong with my answer. There are not as many strong laborers in the village as there are mountains and trees.
"You can live with them!" said Aunt Cuihua.
"This is not good! You said I am a weak woman. Isn't this asking for advantage?" Besides, it is not good for an unmarried woman like me to hang out with a bunch of grown men.
"What are you thinking about!" Song Jinxiu was hit on the forehead again.
"They help with the heavy work, and you just stay at home and cook!
You're not the only one getting this sorting. Families with less labor in the village will arrange for some strong laborers to share the house with them," Aunt Cuihua explained.
"Will those strong laborers agree to this?" Song Jinxiu asked.
"Hahaha! When this cooperative team came out, the happiest ones were the men!" Aunt Cuihua said with a smile.
"Ah? Why?" Song Jinxiu asked in confusion.
“In previous years, even if there wasn’t this mutual aid group, those laborers would still be sent down to help everyone with the work!
This year, with the help of the mutual aid group, they no longer have to cook for themselves. They are so happy! Aunt Cuihua explained.
"Oh!" Song Jinxiu was also happy.
This means that I won’t have to farm next year and I’ll still have food to share!
So fun!
I sat there for a long time, listening to Aunt Cuihua chatting about family matters. During this time, Niu Dan finally came home and gave him his red envelope.
Song Jinxiu didn't leave until other aunts came to visit.
Then he took Liu Ankang to visit every household, with Liu Ankang mainly leading the way.
They were the ones who gave him red envelopes during the Chinese New Year, so he had to return the favor.
If you can reach the children, you can send them. If you can’t reach them, there’s nothing you can do.
Sometimes a few other kids get in too.
Song Jinxiu's smiling face was stiff all day long.
They were not very familiar with each other, and she basically just listened to what others said, and I just smiled and nodded beside them, and even showed my support from time to time.
Anyway, there's nothing else to say. Just praise her children. Praise her sons and grandchildren, and you can also praise the chickens, ducks, and geese at home.
After going around, I became familiar with everyone.
The next day, another aunt came to visit, and Song Jinxiu received her warmly.
Talk about everything, life and ideals.
After he left, Song Jinxiu asked Liu Ankang who the other person was.
Suddenly I realized that they were all the parents of the children who had sneaked into the crowd yesterday.
So, Liu Ankang received a few more red envelopes.
The first month of the lunar year is the happiest time of the year, when everyone spends the day eating, drinking and visiting friends and relatives!
"Aunt, we also want to raise chickens this year. Where can we catch them?" Song Jinxiu asked Aunt Cuihua.
We must have at least two eggs a day at home, we can’t always buy them.
So Song Jinxiu decided to raise a few chickens at home to hide her tracks.
