Sure enough, the moment the firecrackers exploded, the two children instinctively dodged in opposite directions. The firecrackers exploded, and a few pieces of red paper floated in the air and finally fell to the ground.
The two children were frightened and looked at their family in horror.
"Dashan!" Dashan's mother yelled, "I'll beat you to death!"
Dashan visibly shuddered, his eyes filled with fear.
"Pooh, pooh, pooh! Dashan's mother, what are you doing? Hurry up and comfort the child. Look how scared the child is!" Old Lady Feng said, and Dashan's mother did not dare to disobey. Besides, she also saw the fear in the child's eyes.
Several parents were so scared that they broke out in sweat and took their children home.
"Don't scold the children! It's New Year's Day! You can't scold children! Go back and comfort them well, and then we can talk to them slowly later." Old Mrs. Feng warned.
Dashan's mother realized that today was the first day of the new year and slapped herself on the mouth.
A few parents were absent, so Old Lady Feng sent the children home, repeatedly admonishing them along the way not to pick up duds. The children, frightened today, promised Old Lady they would never pick up firecrackers again.
After sending the children home, Mrs. Feng went home for breakfast. Not long after she finished eating, parents began to arrive one after another.
The first to arrive were Dashan's parents and grandmother. Carrying two bags of snacks, they thanked Mrs. Feng profusely as they entered.
"Dashan, kowtow to the old lady and thank her quickly." said Dashan's grandmother.
Dashan was very obedient. He walked forward, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed three times.
"Hurry up! Look at you two, you're so awkward!" Old Lady Feng quickly pulled Dashan up and fished out a one-cent note from her pocket. "It's Chinese New Year, so I'm giving you some lucky money. Take it."
Dashannai argued with the old lady for a while, but finally gave up seeing that the old lady was determined.
She pulled a handkerchief from her pocket and unfolded it to reveal a red string bracelet with a small silver gourd adorning it.
"Our Dashan is in great need of you and Jiaojiao this time. We went back and asked Dashan, and he told us everything. Old sister, don't refuse, my family really doesn't have any other good things. This is for Jiaojiao as a New Year's gift. You keep it for Jiaojiao, and give it to her when she can wear it in the future." Grandma Dashan wrapped the thing layer by layer and stuffed it into Grandma Feng's hand.
Old Mrs. Feng naturally declined.
"It's not for you, it's for Jiaojiao. Just think of it as me buying a good relationship for Dashan! But don't refuse it again!" Dashan's mother's eyes were firm.
Old Lady Feng had no choice but to help Jiaojiao accept the things.
After the business was done, the atmosphere between the two families became relaxed and everyone chatted together.
Before he could say a few words, someone came knocking on the door.
