Chapter 178 New Year's Day
The six people looked at the red envelope in Su Da Ye's hand with a smile, looking impatient.
The old marquis and his wife at the top looked at the six grandchildren with eyes full of satisfaction.
These six people will be the hope and future of the Su family.
The Su family is lucky that they are together and have such a good life after being exiled.
Su Qiwen, who was standing in front, bowed and said, "Your son wishes your father and mother good health, all the best in the new year, and all your wishes come true. I also wish our Su family peace and prosperity!"
"Well said! Our Su family doesn't need to be rich and powerful, we just need peace and prosperity!" Uncle Su laughed loudly, and a red envelope fell into Su Qiwen's hands.
Su Qiwen stood aside happily holding the red envelope, looking at Su Qicheng who was next.
Su Qicheng scratched his head and bowed: "Nephew wishes uncle and aunt good health, all the best in the new year, and all their wishes come true. I also wish our Su family peace and prosperity!"
"Hahaha……"
The old marquis was amused and pointed at Su Qicheng and laughed, saying that the little brat was just reading from a script.
"hey-hey……"
Su Qicheng chuckled twice, took the red envelope and ran to Su Qiwen, looking at his parents with his eyes, knowing that there would be more to come later.
"You little brat." Master Su glanced at him. His son had really come to his senses. He knew that he had to hide his shortcomings in everything and not surpass Su Qiwen.
Putting the eldest grandson above the eldest son is a taboo in front of the old man. It is also the first day of the new year, so there must not be any unpleasantness.
Of course, Su Qiwen's speech was beautiful and impeccable, and the brat just moved it over, which was good.
The Su family now only hopes for peace and prosperity, and hopes that no disaster will suddenly strike.
Next was Su Yue. She also followed Su Qiwen's lead and bowed: "My daughter wishes father and mother good health, all the best in the new year, and all their wishes come true. I also wish our Su family peace and prosperity!"
The New Year is all about creating a happy atmosphere. There’s no need for anything fancy. What the eldest brother said is good enough.
Next was Su Xue, who also moved directly, which caused everyone to laugh again.
The same went for Su Yan and his sister. Everyone happily took the red envelopes.
"Come, come, Li boy, how can we miss you." Uncle Su waved at Murong Li.
Murong Li was stunned for a moment, then stepped forward and bowed to Grandpa Su, "I, your son-in-law, wish everyone in the Su family good health, success, peace and good fortune!!"
"Hahaha...good, good, good job, Li kid."
Uncle Su patted Murong Li's shoulder and put a red envelope in his hand.
Murong Li looked at the red seal in his hand, his eyes moistened.
"Brother Murong, come here quickly." Su Qicheng ran out of the team, pulled Murong Li in, and asked him to stand behind Su Qiwen.
Su Qiwen turned around and smiled at Murong Li, "You have to run fast to get the red envelope. You can get it this year, but you won't be able to get it next year."
"It's the same for us." Murong Li curled his lips.
"Hehe...yes."
Su Qiwen turned around and, like everyone else, stared at Master Su Er.
Master Su was also very generous. He took out a stack of red envelopes from his pocket and glared at the little guys: "Why are you so anxious? We are prepared. Come on, come on."
"Haha... this second brother..."
The old marquis took the old lady's hand and pointed with a smile.
The second child has grown up.
The old marquis smiled with relief.
The old lady patted his hand, pursed her lips and smiled at everyone.
The old lady felt that after leaving the Marquis' Mansion, the family was more harmonious than before and everyone had grown up.
Exile is better than staying in the capital and worrying about the knife falling on your head all the time. It is not impossible for the Su family to continue living like this.
Wealth and glory are nothing but passing clouds, only a simple and ordinary life is real.
Su Qiwen was the first to go up, gave a speech of congratulations, and left with the red envelope.
It was the same as before, everyone followed suit and got the red envelope.
Everyone thought that today's red envelope game was over, but unexpectedly, the first lady, the second lady, and Aunt Yao were all prepared, and several younger generations lined up happily to receive the red envelopes.
Finally, it was Aunt Zhang's turn. Her face was a little stiff, and she forced a smile as she handed red envelopes to the children.
Looking at all the cheerful children, today should have been her Su He's day, but...
Mr. Su walked over and patted her shoulder: "It's a holiday today, be happy."
Aunt Zhang nodded at him, feeling extremely sad: "I will save you the trouble."
"Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. Let's go shopping. Remember to come back for lunch."
The old lady noticed that Aunt Zhang was not in a good condition, so she immediately called everyone and spoke.
"Okay, grandpa and grandma, come with us. Your granddaughter will support you." Su Xue said, holding the old lady's hand.
The old lady smiled kindly and said, "Grandma won't go. You young people can go."
"There's still snow outside and the road is slippery. Go ahead and we'll wait for you at home to have lunch."
The eldest lady came over and said the same thing.
"Okay, let's go." Su Qiwen nodded, waved his hand and went out first.
After saying goodbye to the elders, everyone followed them out.
The seven people left the house without even taking their servants with them. When they came out, they saw that there were not many people on the streets and there was not much of a festive atmosphere.
But this is East City, which is full of residential areas. The commercial street is in South City, so everyone decided to go shopping in South City.
This place is not far from South City, just an incense stick's walk away. The three brothers Su Qiwen, Su Qicheng and Su Qiming walked in front, Su Xue and Su Yan walked in the middle, and Murong Li and Su Yue walked behind.
In fact, Su Xue really wanted to walk and talk with Su Yue, but Murong Li was there, so she felt embarrassed to disturb the couple and could only walk with Su Yan.
When everyone walked to the intersection, they saw many people going to South Street, and here they could feel the New Year atmosphere.
Although it was a year of severe drought, most of the people in the city changed into new clothes and walked happily towards South Street.
When we arrived at South Street, it was indeed different. It was crowded and bustling with people.
The streets are lined with stalls, some selling sugar figures, some selling candied haws, some selling calligraphy and paintings, some selling lantern riddles, some selling snacks...it's so overwhelming that it's dazzling.
There are a lot of people selling snacks. I guess they stored their goods until today to sell them.
There were people selling pancakes, fried cakes, various cakes, and noodles...
There were so many people that every stall was lined with people. It was rare to have so many snacks and delicacies, and no one thought the prices were expensive, so they ate everything they could.
Su Yue truly felt the lively atmosphere of the New Year. In the end times, the New Year was celebrated just like any other day. Everyone's concept of the New Year was that after the New Year, they were one year older, so what was so good about celebrating the New Year?
Moreover, during the apocalyptic years, fireworks were not allowed to be set off. People could only see fireworks in previous videos.
"Sister, we're bringing Xue'er and Yan'er with us, so you can go shopping without worry. If you don't want to go back for lunch, you can do that."
