Early in the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Lu Shiyi woke Su Jin up from bed early, and prepared a lot of snacks and candies in the living room, waiting for the children on the farm to come and pay New Year's greetings.
"Happy Chinese New Year, Ayi!" After Su Jin woke up, she happily wished him a happy new year.
"Happy Chinese New Year, my wife!" Lu Shiyi handed her a thick red envelope, "From this year on, I will give you a red envelope on behalf of my father-in-law and mother-in-law."
Su Jin smiled with red eyes. In the Su family, once you are married or unmarried and over 30 years old, you will no longer receive New Year's money.
"Ayi, I'm married!" Su Jin looked at Lu Shiyi, "According to the Su family's rules, I can't get the New Year's money from my parents."
Lu Shiyi held her in his arms, leaned over and promised her in her ear: "I will give you New Year's money every year in the future, and my wife's New Year's red envelope will definitely last until she's old."
She looked up at him and said, "Ayi, you are so nice."
"We are going out to pay New Year's greetings. I will change Hanhan into thick clothes." This was the first time Hanhan went to visit someone else's house since he was born. Usually, other people came to visit him.
"Bring Hanhan to pay New Year's greetings, isn't that to get lucky money?" Su Jin looked at Lu Shiyi, "My mother and I will be waiting at home, you go and pay New Year's greetings."
Su Jin rejected Lu Shiyi's invitation. If a family doesn't give their children New Year's money, if they are close relatives, they can return it after asking for it. But if they are not familiar with them, people will definitely talk about it behind their backs.
After listening to her, Lu Shiyi thought about it for a while and agreed with her opinion.
He didn't have children in previous years, so when the team members came to pay New Year's greetings, they brought their children with them. He thought that the whole family had to go to pay New Year's greetings.
Lu Shiyi changed into the Zhongshan suit she had prepared, took some red envelopes and went to pay New Year's greetings.
Su Jin looked at Lu Shiyi and shook his head helplessly. He didn't care about giving red envelopes to children, but some families might care and might even get angry for giving an extra purse to another child.
Lu Shiyi went to Wu Jun and Lin Zitao's homes to wish them a happy new year. Wu Jun was stunned when he saw Lu Shiyi coming over alone.
"Shi Yi, where are Xiao Jin and the child?" Wu Jun thought that it was a family of three coming over, so he not only prepared a red envelope for Hanhan, but also two buckets of milk powder that he had just brought back.
"Xiao Jin is worried that the child will catch a cold if he goes out, so she stays at home with him." Lu Shiyi looked at Wu Jun and said.
Wu Jun had no choice but to give the red envelope and milk powder to Lu Shiyi, but he refused the purse that Wu Jun handed over.
"Minister Wu, the milk powder is what Hanhan needs. I can take it. You can give the red envelope to Hanhan when you meet him." Lu Shiyi refused Wu Jun's purse.
As soon as the words fell, Liu Yunshan instantly understood the couple's painstaking efforts and winked at Wu Jun.
"When you see Hanhan, give him a big red envelope. Take this milk powder back. I asked the eldest brother to buy it specially for Hanhan from southern Guangdong." Liu Yunshan pointed out that the milk powder was for Hanhan.
"Auntie, I'll take it back now!" After Lu Shiyi exchanged greetings with the two of them for a while, he left the Wu family carrying two buckets of milk powder.
Wu Jun looked at Lu Shiyi's receding back, then turned to look at Liu Yunshan.
"Why doesn't Shi Yi bring red envelopes back for the children? Children should get red envelopes during the Chinese New Year!" Wu Jun felt that Lu Shiyi was a little unkind.
Liu Yunshan sighed helplessly: "Shi Yi is smart. For someone like us who have a good relationship, it's okay for him to give Hanhan a red envelope. There are people in the family compound who are secretly concerned about it. How old is Hanhan? If the young couple takes Hanhan to pay New Year's greetings, they will be gossiped about by those people."
Wu Jun never thought about these things: "In the family compound, many children of Hanhan's age came to visit us for New Year's greetings, and no one gossiped."
"Shi Yi's position is already there, can those people be let go?" Liu Yunshan said helplessly.
The family members in the farm are sensible, but there is no guarantee that someone will not tell others about the matter. What should they do if someone instigates them?
After the Lin family paid New Year's greetings to Lu Shiyi, Lin Zitao and his wife lamented that Lu Shiyi was very tactful in his work.
"Old Lu never gives others any chance to talk. Some sisters-in-law want to take the opportunity to say that Lu Shiyi is making money by having a child." Lin Zitao got some rumors that the rivals of the Lu family in the imperial capital have been sending people to secretly monitor the farm. If Lu Shiyi goes out to pay New Year's greetings with his child, the rumor will spread throughout the military compound in the imperial capital.
Those people didn't expect that Lu Shiyi had already prevented similar things. He sighed that Lu Shiyi really came out of the compound.
"Old Lin, you should follow Old Lu's footsteps in the future. It would be great if you two could be partners forever." Yun Feng felt that Su Jin was also very wise. He had been studying medical skills in recent years and would occasionally discuss medical skills with Wang Boya and others.
At this time, Su Jin was watching the simulated surgery course in the space, and she found that she had a photographic memory.
In order to improve her medical skills and abilities, she would take advantage of Lu Shiyi's work every day to go into the space to study for 4 hours. In the simulated hospital, she has performed 100 operations.
In the past, she was not interested in medicine and had only read some books about it. Now, she wants to work hard to protect Lu Shiyi and work even harder to protect her family.
As her studies progressed, she also dabbled in prosthetics.
When Lu Shiyi returned home, Su Jin was holding a biology course book and reading it. She was reading the book outside, and the space in her mind was playing a simulation of the teacher's lecture. He was copying notes in the notebook on his right hand, and Hanhan was sleeping in the stroller next to the desk.
"Wife, are you still studying during the New Year?" Lu Shiyi placed two buckets of milk powder on the table by the window and looked at Su Jin's heavy books.
"This knowledge is involved in the translation." Su Jin stopped the course in the space, put down the pen and looked at Lu Shiyi, "It's better to fill in the gaps in knowledge than to translate it poorly afterwards."
Lu Shiyi found that Su Jin was actually busier than him after taking over the translation work. He reached out and picked up Su Jin and sat her on the armchair, placing her on his lap.
"Wife, I won't delay your work. I don't want you to work so hard." Lu Shiyi just wanted her to be happy. "Even if you don't work, I can still support you."
As the two were talking, voices were heard outside, and Lu Shiyi's subordinates came over with their families.
Su Jin took Hanhan into the space before accompanying him out.
"Minister Lu, Happy Chinese New Year!" Both subordinates came with their families to pay New Year's greetings. Su Jin quickly handed the red envelopes to the four children who came with them.
"This is a red envelope for Hanhan!" The family members smiled when they saw the red envelopes Su Jin gave to the children.
"No need for it this year. I'll give it to Hanhan when he can pay New Year's greetings!" Su Jin immediately refused.
Lu Shiyi nodded at everyone, and the family members' smiles became even deeper. They all liked to have their children come to the Lu family to pay New Year's greetings.
"These are candies for the children, a handful for each." Su Jin was distributing candies to the children.
Lu Shiyi was talking to the team members about arrangements for the New Year, as some people would be on duty during the New Year.
After seeing off the people who came to pay New Year's greetings, Su Jin breathed a sigh of relief, and Lu Shiyi handed her a glass of warm water.
