Chapter 88 Big Red Envelope

After the New Year's Eve dinner, Chu Shuang and Sheng Ting went outside to set off fireworks. Actually, they could have set them off in the backyard. But when my nephew heard that they were going outside, he took the initiative to put on his coat and said that he wanted to go with them.

When leaving, he called out to Shen Jing enthusiastically, "Uncle, let's go, let's go set off fireworks together."

Shen Jing glanced at the couple behind him and said, "Forget it, you two go ahead. Uncle will watch the Spring Festival Gala for a while."

So Chu Shuang and Sheng Ting took their little family out.

Arriving at the wide square, Sheng Ting went to light fireworks, while the aunt and nephew watched expectantly not far away.

As the fireworks drew gorgeous pictures in the night sky, the big and small looked up with warm smiles on their faces.

Their fireworks lasted for quite a while. After they ended, Hatsushiro took her little nephew to the busy square to buy some cute gadgets. She and her friend each wore a glowing deer antler headband.

Yuanyuan had just finished his meal and was looking at the egg-stuffed pancakes on the stall. Chushuang glanced at the man next to him and patted the boy's head, "Baby, let your uncle take you to buy some."

Yuanyuan glanced at her tall uncle quietly and retreated a little, "Aunt."

Sheng Ting looked down at Xiao Donggua, took a step forward and held his hand, "Let's go."

Looking at the backs of the two people, one big and one small, Chu Shuang thought they were so cute that she took out her cell phone to take a picture.

There was a tall and handsome man standing in front of the snack stand, with a pretty little baby beside him. The two of them were very eye-catching, and people around them looked over from time to time.

Yuanyuan stood straight, looking a little unnatural. The two of them didn't say a word to each other during the whole process, which made Chushuang laugh.

"girl."

Someone patted my shoulder gently. I turned around and saw it was a young man.

“Can I add WeChat?”

Chu Shuang paused for a moment and waved her hand, "Sorry, I'm…"

"The egg-stuffed pancakes are here!" the child's tender voice said.

Yuanyuan came trotting over holding a cake, followed by a stern-looking man.

Looking again, they and the person next to them look like a happy family of three.

Sheng Ting walked up to him, without even looking at the man, and said gently, "Let's go."

On the way back, Chu Shuang and Yuan Yuan walked in front of Sheng Ting. They were walking normally at first, but then they started to jog and jump, occasionally bursting into laughter.

Sheng Ting watched from behind and shook her head. Being with other children, she had become much more childish.

He had to speak up and remind them: "Walk slowly and watch the road carefully."

I don't know if the two of them heard it or not, as they walked on the wide street, wearing shiny deer antlers and imitating the walking of little ducks.

The man's eyes were filled with helpless smile.

After walking for a while, Yuanyuan turned around and called Shengting, "Uncle, come up and play with us."

Chu Shuang turned around and looked at him, her features gentle and smiling.

This scene brought great shock to Sheng Ting, and he felt incredibly soft-hearted.

"Do you know what my aunt and I were doing just now?"

“I don’t know.”

Little Winter Melon looked up at him, his eyes sparkling like black grapes, and said in a serious and childish voice, "Walk like a duck, and you will be prosperous this year."

Looking down at him, Sheng Ting chuckled.

"Come on, uncle, let's learn to walk like a duck."

I don’t know what Chu Shuang said to him just now, but now he is not afraid of his uncle anymore and even takes the initiative to use his little hands to pull Sheng Ting.

Sheng Ting picked the man up with one hand, "That's enough, don't run too much."

His vision became so high. Yuanyuan looked at his uncle in front of him and suddenly felt that he was quite gentle. Just as his aunt said, he looked cold on the outside but warm on the inside.

Sheng Ting held the little guy in his arms, and Chu Shuang followed beside him.

After walking a few steps, her hand was suddenly held by someone. She looked down at their joined hands and pursed her lips slightly.

After returning home, the elders in the family gave red envelopes to the younger generations, and Chushuang got a very big one.

She and Sheng Ting also gave out the gifts they had prepared for each family member.

When I visited my nephew, I gave him the expensive Koenigsegg model that was in Shengting's study. The little guy was so delighted when he saw it that he couldn't take his eyes off it.

Sheng Ting uses the remote control to teach the children how to drive a Koenigsegg.

The car's braking and turning sensitivity were very good, and the little racing car ran very coolly. Yuanyuan looked at her uncle with admiring eyes, and then couldn't help but kissed him on the cheek.

Others saw it and laughed.

Sheng Ting's eyes paused for a moment, then turned to Xiao Donggua, and his voice became much gentler, "You can try to disassemble and reassemble it later."

“It’s a bit complicated.”

"You'll understand it after trying it a few times."

"good."

Looking into the child's clear and innocent eyes, Sheng Ting suddenly felt that he should give him a model airplane next time.

The whole family watched New Year's Eve in front of the TV until 12 o'clock.

After going upstairs and returning to the room, Chu Shuang sat on the edge of the bed and sent blessings to friends and colleagues. Suddenly, there was a shadow in front of her. She raised her eyes and saw a striking red.

What a big and thick red envelope.

Sheng Ting handed it to her, "New Year's money."

Chu Shuang paused, "Do I have one too?"

The words on the red envelope should be written by him, four big and powerful characters "Peace and happiness every year".

When he opened it, he saw a bulging bag of red money.

He actually prepared one for her. She thought at most that he would send an electronic red envelope, but she didn't expect him to wrap the red envelope in such a ceremonial way.

The corners of Hatsumei's eyes slightly curved, "Thank you."

Sheng Ting stared at her, "Why thank you?"

After looking at each other for a while, Chu Shuang pursed her lips slightly, and when the atmosphere was about to become ambiguous, she said, "Wait a moment."

I saw her searching for something on her phone.

"I'm giving you this painting."

She clicked on the illustration and saw a man.

Sheng Ting took a closer look and realized that the location was the Tianjing Courtyard of the Sheng family's old residence. There was a hazy drizzle all around. The man holding the black umbrella was tall and slender, with sharp yet calm eyes. He was shrouded in the rain mist, giving off a vague feeling as if he was looking at flowers through the mist.

She has a good performance.

“Is that me?”

"Of course it was you, the day we first met."

Hatsushimo brought the painting in front of him and asked him expectantly, "Do you like it?"

"like."

Sheng Ting sent the picture to his mobile phone and used it as his profile picture that evening.

The next day after breakfast, the family went to the museum together.

I thought that during the Chinese New Year everyone would like to go to the park and the pedestrian street and not many people would come to the museum. But when I arrived, I found that there were a lot of people in the museum, mostly students and young couples.

Young people today really like to go to museums.

After seeing the historical theme exhibition, everyone went to listen to the lecture. The lecture on ethnic costumes was very lively. The uncle spoke eloquently, unlike other academic lectures which were generally solemn and dull. Occasionally, related folk stories were interspersed. While the lecture was going on, not only were there models displaying beautiful costumes on the stage, but there were also old folk artists playing the guzheng next to them.

The people in the lecture hall were very engaged throughout the lecture. The audience were all interested in folk culture. There was no noise or disturbance and the experience was very good. At the end of the more than one-hour lecture, everyone still felt a little reluctant to leave.

It was already afternoon when we left the museum. My aunt suggested that we go to Folk Street to watch the lantern parade, but when we got there we found it was too crowded and too lively.

The family was originally walking together, but were gradually separated by the crowd, so they contacted each other on the phone and agreed to go their separate ways first and then reunite at the West Street exit.
