Sanni became even more anxious. In order to eat faster, she did whatever her mother said, nodding her head and not refutating at all.
Cheng Zhenyu finally let go and ate the mountain of food in her bowl. Ever since the separation, her husband, Zhao Jiawang, had become increasingly attentive to her. She was quite satisfied with this.
Zhao Sanni looked at the white rice in the bowl and quickly picked up the meat.
"You just said it, have you forgotten it again?" Cheng Zhenyu saw the little girl stepping on the chair to grab the food, and immediately grabbed Sanni again.
"I haven't forgotten..." Sanni then remembered what she had promised her mother, and she had no choice but to be honest.
Her mother said that if she didn't obey, she wouldn't get the new bed or the new house, and would have to live in the old house with the old quilt, without any new clothes or hair ornaments...
She had no doubt about the truth of this statement. In the past, she had her father to help her, and her grandmother would also say something to her mother, but her grandmother moved away, and her father only listened to her mother. Now her mother was the boss of the family.
So she wasn't surprised at all when her father put a lot of meat and vegetables in her mother's bowl but there was nothing in his own bowl.
She saw through it...
"Ahhh~" Liu Tiao was so delicious that he pointed everywhere. This time he pointed to the tender water tofu for his mother.
Daddy Cheng Fugui's scallion tofu is incredibly good, tender and flavorful. The whole family loves it, and they've been eating it for several meals in the past few days. Cheng Zhenzhu feeds Liu a small piece and gives a spoonful to the short-handed San Tiao next to them.
"Thank you, Mom~" San Tiao grinned, revealing a row of neat little white teeth.
Zhao Fangrui looked at her obedient grandson and couldn't help but pick up some food for him.
Zhao Sanni also got a spoonful and ate it immediately...
After dinner, all that was left was to stay up all night. Cheng Zhenyu took out her cards and told the children to wait for her to win before giving them red envelopes.
The allure of red envelopes was still very strong. Several children sat at the card table, eagerly waiting.
But in the end, Cheng Zhenyu, who had made the promise, didn't win and ended up being the biggest loser at the table. Her husband, Zhao Jiawang, did win a bit, so Cheng Zhenyu added a few more bucks to Zhao Jiawang's winnings and gave each of the eight children a red envelope.
Cheng Zhenyu clutched a thick stack of red envelopes, feeling quite satisfied. Speaking of which, his brother Zhenbao was really at a loss by having only one child. Her family had three, so they were still making some money. And the one who benefited the most was her eldest sister...
"Mom will keep them for you. Don't worry, I have counted them..." Cheng Zhenzhu gave out eight small red envelopes, gave two big red envelopes to her parents, and then collected several red envelopes.
The red envelope naturally consisted of six pieces, and then I gave three of them to her and asked her to keep them first.
"Oh~" Liu Tiao lost his red envelope and couldn't help but take his two brothers' red envelopes to have a look. When he opened it, he saw it was just a crumpled piece of paper. He lost interest and threw it aside.
One followed behind and picked up the money, putting it away like a treasure. My mother said he could use his money for himself...
The first day of the new year.
There were not many relatives visiting the house, so the Cheng family and neighbors visited a few times, and then in the evening they played cards at home with the doors and windows closed all night long.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, everyone in the house was surprised to see a vast expanse of snow in front of their door. The snow was piled so thick on the ground, almost six feet high, and it was still drifting in large flakes, like scattered cotton wool...
"Auspicious snow means a good harvest. This year has started off well, not bad." Cheng Fugui nodded, then took a shovel and gave it to Cheng Zhenbao, asking him to shovel a path.
"The harvest will definitely be good this year..." Cheng Zhenbao took the shovel and prepared to start working.
"Brother Yitiao, it's snowing! Let's have a snowball fight!" Little Tiger happily suggested when he saw the heavy snow. "Grandpa, Dad, don't shovel the snow, we want to play!"
Before, he was alone and couldn't fight, and Sister Dani and the others didn't fight him. Now that Brother Yitiao and the others are here, he must play!
"Okay, you guys go ahead and have fun." Cheng Fugui nodded, threw the shovel aside, pushed the kitchen door open, and went to make breakfast.
Cheng Zhenbao followed suit and helped. Zhao Jiawang saw that he was the only man left, so he also went to the kitchen to gather with the other men...
"One, two, three, this is the snow that mother told you about. Isn't it beautiful?" Cheng Zhenzhu looked at the curious looks of the little kids and secretly felt lucky on this trip.
I didn't expect it to snow in Haishi, and it was heavy snow. The snow was flying all over the sky, and I would be sorry if I didn't have a snowball fight to experience it up close.
"This is snow!" It was the first time for Yitiao and his brothers to see snow. They touched some and felt the cool, icy and soft snowflakes in their hands. They shouted and jumped with excitement.
"What's so strange about this? The snow was so heavy the past two years. If you threw six fish into the snow, you wouldn't be able to find them..." Cheng Zhenyu was used to seeing snow. She only felt the chill, nothing else. Seeing the reactions of her nephews, she was very disapproving.
"No, no~" Liu Tiao's eyes widened, his mouth puffing up. Why did this aunt throw him into the snow and not find him? He was so obedient...
Cheng Zhenyu didn't understand Liu Tiao's logic behind suddenly saying no, and continued to say to Cheng Zhenzhu, "Big sister, you can't see it over there. If you like snow, you have to come home often to see it."
"Yes, second sister, you can come here during the New Year in the future. It will be lively with more people, the kids will have company, and our parents will be happy too..." Wang Xiaomei rarely stood and talked with her elder sister-in-law.
Cheng Zhenzhu smiled and nodded, "Well, I'll bring one of them here to play when I have time..."
"Mom, this snow is so beautiful." Peng Ertiao reached out to pick up a few snowflakes and looked at them in front of his eyes. After a while, he found that they turned into water, and he was even more surprised.
