Use those big basins, I think they're made of aluminum, and fill them one by one.
I filled several pots at once.
Lin Shih-Han's eyes lit up as she looked at those things.
I wish I could save them all in my online space so I could take one out and eat it whenever I feel like it – they're so delicious!
Seeing that she ate a lot, the Zhu family was also happy.
I was busy all day on New Year's Eve, and I hung up all the couplets in the morning.
Every household was filled with joy. In the evening, the whole family gathered together. The Zhu family had a television and watched the Spring Festival Gala.
Just after midnight, the Zhu family immediately went out to set off firecrackers.
At the same time, some offerings are taken to the courtyard, placed on the table, and paper money is burned while kowtowing.
Then came the setting off of firecrackers.
Lin Shih-Han had no idea why, but she just followed along.
She kowtowed, but she didn't know who she was kowtowing to.
After kowtowing and setting off firecrackers, they started cleaning up.
They packed the things that had been moved out back in.
Then came the New Year's greetings.
The elderly couple, Mr. and Mrs. Zhu, sat at the head of the table, followed by Mr. Zhu's father and parents standing below.
Then kneel down!
I kowtowed to the elderly couple and wished them a Happy New Year.
The elderly couple each gave a red envelope.
Next up are their three grandchildren.
Lin Shih-Han, Zhu Yuan-Qing, and Zhu Yuan-He first knelt down to pay their respects to their grandparents for the New Year.
Happy Chinese New Year, Grandpa and Grandma! May you have many more happy returns of the year, and may you always be smiling and blessed with longevity and happiness.
"Okay, okay!"
Everyone who comes will receive a big red envelope!
Lin Shih-Han also received a large red envelope, but she thought that was the end of it?
That's not true.
"Girl, wait a moment, here are 18 red envelopes for you to keep!"
Let's make up for the previous 18 years!
Lin Shih-Han: ...
My nose feels a little sore.
"You can't cry during the Lunar New Year!"
Keep it safe!
Lin Shih-Han accepted the 18 red envelopes, bringing the total to 19, including the previous one.
When they went to wish Lin's parents a Happy New Year, they knelt down and kowtowed in the same way.
Happy Chinese New Year, Mom and Dad! Wishing you prosperity, good health, and all the best.
Mr. and Mrs. Zhu also gave Lin Shih-Han, Zhu Yun-Qing, and Zhu Yuan-He a red envelope each.
Then he sent Lin Shih-han 18 more red envelopes.
19+19, she held 38 red envelopes in her hand.
This drew envious glances from the Zhu brothers, Zhu Yuanqing and Zhu Yuanhe.
"With so many red envelopes, your hands must be sore from opening them all!"
Hearing Zhu Yuanqing say that, Lin Shih-han smiled at him.
"Happy New Year, elder brothers!"
Zhu Yuanqing smiled and gave her the red envelope in his hand.
Then, as if by magic, he pulled out 17 red envelopes from his lower back.
Here you go, a total of 18 red envelopes.
"We'll make up for the previous 18 years too!"
Zhu Yuanhe also gave her the red envelope that he hadn't even warmed yet.
They put all the New Year's money given to them by their grandparents and parents into a red envelope and gave it all to their little sister.
I felt a bit cheated during this year's Spring Festival!
Similarly, you took out 18 red envelopes.
Even if it's a loss, it's worth it if he can find his sister.
Then they stayed up all night until the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year.
Lin Shih-Han counted the red envelopes in her hand—wow, a total of 76!
She had never received so many red envelopes in both of her lifetimes combined.
At this moment, she was undoubtedly happy.
It was also quite touching.
Blink to hold back the tears.
He can't cry during the Lunar New Year.
"Thank you, thank you grandpa and grandma, thank you mom and dad, thank you big brother and second brother!"
The family looked at him with doting eyes.
"No need to thank me, we're all family."
Let's go back and put the red envelopes away; we're going downstairs to stay up all night to welcome the New Year!
"If you're bored, do you know how to play Red Five?"
Lin Shih-Han looked completely bewildered by the question.
What is "playing the Red Five"?
"you do not know?
Then you return these red envelopes, and then we'll come down and play together.
Let me explain the rules to you.
Then Lin Shih-han discovered that the so-called "beating the red five" was actually a scam.
It's just a normal poker game, and besides the Jokers, the five of hearts is the highest card.
It's that simple. It's not even as good as Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game), but it actually looks pretty much the same.
There were no straights or bombs or anything like that.
A relatively simpler way to play.
Lin Shih-Han was speechless. With her current memory, playing this game with them would be bullying her.
Then what happened next was that Lin Shih-Han won every single round.
Even if she gets the worst hand, she can still win and escape.
What happened?
"Little sister, didn't you say you didn't know how to play?"
Lin Shih-Han: "Newbie protection period."
Even though I don't know how to play, it's because I'm a beginner!
Therefore, they adapted well.
The Zhu family was speechless. How could this be?
Lin Shih-Han shrugged and played her last card.
"I won again!"
All three members of the Zhu family, father and sons, lost to Lin Shih-Han.
"This is really terrible, I can't win an arm wrestling match."
I can't even win a game of cards, a battle of wits.
Little sister, you're amazing!
Zhu Yuanqing wailed.
Zhu Yuanzhang finally realized what was happening.
"Little sister, have you memorized all these cards?"
Lin Shih-Han nodded with a smile.
"There are only two decks of cards, I can't help but remember them!"
"Our strength doesn't allow it!"
The Zhu family had a better Versailles meal than she did.
