Chapter 166 Happy New Year
Next came my second uncle and aunt, they also prepared two, and the same went for my third uncle and aunt.
After their faces were collected, the children kept saying nice things to each other, like a machine gun, and they couldn't stop.
The younger Bai Yong and Guanghui couldn't wait to open the red envelopes.
We are all family, so naturally we won’t think too much about it. The adults had already discussed it beforehand, and the red envelopes will be of the same size.
Not afraid of embarrassment.
What do children want to do most when they have money?
Of course, it’s to buy firecrackers.
But there is no need to rush, it will be the same if we go tomorrow.
The sensible Bai Ling and Yu Meng wanted to give the red envelopes to their parents, but how could they accept theirs?
"Keep it for yourself and use it to buy school supplies when school starts next year." The adults all refused with a loving look on their faces.
Bai Jing handed in her salary the night before the Lunar New Year, and she didn't give out the New Year's money, but kept it for herself.
That night, my second uncle and third uncle's families did not go back home and stayed there.
They left after lunch the next day and made an appointment to have dinner at their second uncle's house in the evening. Bai Quanfu's family had no objection to this.
It is said that the son returns home on the first day of the first lunar month, visits his mother's home on the second day, and visits relatives on the third and fourth days.
On the first day of the New Year, they naturally stay at home, and only on the second day do they start going back to their mother's house.
Speaking of her mother's family, Bai Jing didn't know what her mother was thinking.
Ever since she was old enough to understand, she has not had any impression of her grandmother's family.
When the family was in the most difficult times, no one from my grandmother's family came to see her mother.
In previous years, her family had never visited relatives from her mother's family. This time, she didn't know whether her mother would visit her mother's family.
However, she believed that her mother would handle it herself.
Sure enough, when Luo Chunhua came back from her second uncle's house after dinner, she told Bai Quanfu about her visit to her mother's house on the second day of the New Year.
"If you want to go back, I will go with you. It wasn't easy for them before. I understand that you have resentment in your heart. It's all my fault." Bai Quanfu held his wife's hand tightly, giving her strength and warmth.
Luo Chunhua still hadn't decided whether to go back that night.
It would take a lot of time to go back and forth. Besides, if I leave on the second day of the New Year, I won’t be able to reach my mother’s house on the same day. I will have to go on the third day at the latest.
It wasn't until she woke up the next day that she made the decision to go back.
When the children heard the news, they were so happy.
Now that my family is not short of money, I naturally won’t go back to my parents’ home empty-handed or bring wild vegetables like before.
When Bai Jing learned that they were going back to her grandmother's house, she asked, "Mom, when can we come back? I have to go to work on the sixth day of the New Year." That's right, Bai Jing had to go to work on the sixth day of the New Year.
Since she had a holiday early before the New Year, she would naturally go back to work early after the New Year.
Luo Chunhua is the spring chef. She doesn't start work until the tenth day of the first lunar month, while the master chef works on the first day of the first lunar month.
We set off on the second day of the Lunar New Year, arrived on the third day, and rested for two more days before it was the fifth day. If we didn’t stay long, we could come back early.
But she couldn't go back home more than once throughout the year, and Luo Chunhua also wanted to stay at her parents' home for a few more days.
But she couldn't bear to leave Xiaojing at home alone, "How about not going back this year, and wait until next year when everyone has time?" She knew that Xiaojing had to go to work early.
"Mom, you don't have to be like this. Just go back if you want. Grandma must miss you too." She remembered that in her previous life, her mother had a close relationship with her youngest uncle.
The close relationship between the two does not rule out the possibility that they are in the worst conditions.
Of course, this was just her guess.
But her uncle was indeed a good person, but he was still young at that time and had not yet gotten married.
Her mother has five sisters in total, one brother, two sisters and one brother.
My elder brother is already married, my eldest sister is marrying in the village, my younger sister and Luo Chunhua are marrying in Baijia Village, and my youngest brother will have to wait another two years before getting married.
Although her parents were unable to help her when she was in trouble, they were her parents who raised her, so she naturally wanted to return home in glory.
"Then what will you do?" She was still worried about her daughter. "It will be so lonely for you to be alone at home. Why don't you come back with us? We'll come back after visiting your grandparents." Luo Chunhua was worried about her daughter being alone at home.
Bai Jing shook her head. "Mom, I'm already an adult. I won't starve at home. Besides, I haven't been home for so many years. If I go back, I have to stay for a few more days. It just so happens that Dad has time. I may not have such an opportunity next time."
She didn't want to tie her mother down because of herself. Going back to her parents' home is what every married woman looks forward to most.
After saying that, Bai Jing winked at her father. Bai Quanfu felt sorry for his daughter, but he wanted to satisfy his wife even more. "Why don't we listen to Xiao Jing and come back early?"
Luo Chunhua looked at this and that, and finally the thought of returning to her parents' home overcame her concern for her daughter.
"Okay, let's go back and come back early." Luo Chunhua made the decision.
"Mom, it's a rare opportunity to go back, so you should stay a few more days to accompany grandma. I'll be fine at home. Besides, I have to go out to pay New Year's greetings on the third day of the New Year, so I may not be able to eat at home."
At this time, they had all forgotten about inviting Zhong Qiming and others to dinner on the third day of the junior high school.
It was Bai Jing who remembered this incident afterwards. However, Zhong Qiming and Wang Fei came to the house at this time, and Bai Jing also explained it to them.
After the agreement was reached, Luo Chunhua began to prepare food for her family.
That’s right, now you have to bring your own food when you go out to visit others.
It was impossible for them to carry so many things with them, so she prepared some food for the journey, and the most she took was money and food coupons.
With food coupons, you can buy food in the village, so you don’t have to worry about your family eating up all the food.
At noon on the second day of the Chinese New Year, Bai Jing personally sent her parents and younger siblings to the bus station.
Looking at the shabby car, she was a little glad that she didn't go.
After repeated instructions, the car started and Bai Jing walked back.
I don’t know if God knew that there were many people going out today, so there were no more snowflakes falling from the sky. Instead, the sun came out, adding warmth to everyone.
On the way home, Bai Jing met Zhang Cuicui.
"Don't you have to go to your mother's house today?" Bai Jing was a little surprised when she saw her. After all, today was the day she was going to her mother's house.
"My grandmother's house is far away. I went there last year, but my mother said she won't go back this year. So, she arranged a blind date for my second brother in the first month of the lunar year." Zhang Cuicui was naturally happy to meet her good friend.
She was in the mindset of visiting relatives, so she didn't go to bother them early. Unexpectedly, the two of them became the ones with the most free time.
"That's great. Come on, let's go to my house and have a seat." The house had been too lively before, and she was a little uncomfortable with the sudden silence.
I happened to meet Cuicui, and I had to take her back to sit with me no matter what. She didn't want to face the silence of the room alone.
"No problem, but wait a moment, I'll go pick up some things. I can't come to your house empty-handed during the New Year." Zhang Cuicui naturally had no objection.
Bai Jing said no, but Zhang Cuicui disagreed and insisted on going home to pick up the things.
Bai Jing had no choice but to wait for her arrival at home.
But she also prepared tea and desserts waiting for her.
