Chapter 392 New Year's Day
The fireworks continued until the clock struck twelve.
Before the sound of the fireworks had completely subsided, firecrackers were heard in the courtyard.
"Crackle, crackle..."
One family after another.
The Zhang family’s firecrackers had not yet been finished when the Li family’s firecrackers were lit.
Lu Yujing also took out the firecrackers from home.
The sound of firecrackers.
Say goodbye to the old and welcome the new.
"Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, Mom, Xingning, Husband, Aunt Wang, Sister Chen, Happy New Year!"
"Happy New Year!"
"Happy New Year!"
…
Jian Qingyi went to bed in the early morning and slept until noon the next day, even skipping breakfast.
This also made her miss a good show.
During lunch, Lu Xingning couldn't wait to share with her the wonderful show in the Chen family.
I don’t know what Zeng Caiping was thinking. She took the brother and sister to visit her eldest son and second son to wish them a happy new year early in the morning.
Although Chen Hongyu and Chen Hongyun did not like the siblings, they reluctantly gave them two red envelopes since it was the New Year.
Zeng Caiping thought the red envelope was too small and started making a fuss immediately.
She cried and scolded her two sons for being heartless and cruel, and for bullying their younger siblings.
Chen Hongyu and Chen Hongyun are both grandfathers, but their mother pointed at their noses and scolded them for being conscienceless and black-hearted, and for bullying their younger siblings.
Where can I put this face?
To be honest, a red envelope of ten yuan is not small.
These days, red envelopes are generally not big.
Ordinary people...
For close relatives, giving them two, five, or even ten pieces is considered very generous.
If it’s an ordinary relative, it’s only fifty cents or one dollar.
Although the conditions in the compound are better, the red envelopes given to children are usually only ten or twenty yuan.
To be precise, most are ten yuan.
The twenty yuan that the Lu family gave to Lu Xingning was considered quite generous.
Someone like Jian Qingyi who gave out a huge red envelope of 200 yuan...
We can’t say there are none, we can only say there are very few.
As for the big red envelope that Jian Qingyi received, to borrow the words of the old man, the old lady, Lu Yaozong, and Qin Mengjie...
Their money will belong to the two little ones sooner or later, so it doesn't matter whether they give it early or late.
Chen Hongyu and Chen Hongyun were scolded by Zeng Caiping so badly that they couldn't even raise their heads.
There were already many people visiting relatives and friends to wish each other a happy new year on New Year's Day, and Zeng Caiping's behavior instantly attracted a group of people to watch the fun.
But Zeng Caiping is a shameless person.
He didn't give his two sons any face at all.
If Chen Zhize were here, he could still control her.
Unfortunately, Chen Zhize had made an appointment with his comrades to go fishing early and went out at dawn.
Without anyone to check and balance her, Zeng Caiping completely let herself go.
In the end, it was Chen Hongyu and Chen Hongyun's wife who couldn't stand it anymore and gave Zeng Caiping two big red envelopes of sixty yuan each to appease her.
Jian Qingyi's face showed an indescribable expression.
Sometimes she really doesn't know what Zeng Caiping is thinking!
Can an adopted child be closer than a biological son?!
She is really not afraid of hurting her son and daughter-in-law's feelings!
"Sister-in-law, let me tell you, you will never guess what Zeng Caiping will do next?" Lu Xingning laughed so hard that he didn't even bother to eat.
"She won't take her siblings to find her four grandchildren, right?" Jian Qingyi smiled.
"Sister-in-law, you are so amazing. You can even guess this." Lu Xingning's mouth was grinning all the time.
She smiled and shared Zeng Caiping's cool moves with everyone.
Chen Hongyu and Chen Hongyun's wives both thought that Zeng Caiping should stop being so agitated.
But no one expected that Zeng Caiping turned around and took the siblings to the family quarters of her eldest grandson and second grandson.
Coincidentally...
Zeng Caiping’s second grandson and his family just brought their children to her eldest grandson’s house to pay New Year’s greetings.
This immediately brought the two families together.
It is really difficult for Zeng Caiping's eldest and second grandsons to like this aunt and uncle who are about the same age as their daughter.
Calling children who are the same age as your daughter "aunt" or "uncle"...
It’s embarrassing to think about it.
If they were their biological children, they would have tolerated it, but the key point is that they are not their biological children.
How embarrassing for them?!
In order to avoid embarrassment, they would hide whenever possible and would not even go to the compound unless necessary.
No one expected...
Zeng Caiping would bring her two siblings to cause trouble for them on the first day of the Lunar New Year.
But the person has already come to my door, I can't chase her away.
The weird thing is that Zeng Caiping even calls her two granddaughters "sisters and brothers"...
Great aunt, little grandpa.
After decades of being a grandparent, her eldest and second grandsons naturally knew Zeng Caiping's temperament.
In order to avoid making a fool of themselves, the two brothers held the child down and called for help.
I thought that was it.
As a result, Zeng Caiping started talking about red envelopes again.
Her eldest grandson and second grandson thought that it was better to have less trouble than more, so as long as they could get rid of the person, they would just give him the red envelope!
For fear that Zeng Caiping would be unhappy, her eldest and second grandsons did not dare to take out the small red envelopes they had prepared in their pockets. Instead, they went back to the house and gave the siblings two large red envelopes of ten yuan each.
The scene in the compound was repeated.
Finally, it ended with two red envelopes of forty yuan each.
Then there is the third grandson’s family and the fourth grandson’s family.
One circle down.
The two brothers and four grandsons of the Chen family all became famous.
Not only did he become famous, but he also provided a year-long topic of conversation for the gossips of the aunts and uncles in the compound and the family compound.
When Lu Xingning thought about the end, his face almost collapsed with laughter.
"Lu Yujing, you are not allowed to adopt children from outside in the future, neither boys nor girls." Taking this opportunity, Jian Qingyi seriously warned the man next to her.
"Under no circumstances," she added.
She can pay, but she will never let anyone into her house.
She won't let anyone take away her son's love.
Not at all!
No one can do it!!
"Okay!" Lu Yujing nodded seriously.
"You promised this yourself. If you dare to bring someone back to raise, I will take the two children away and let you raise other people's children well." Jian Qingyi was very serious.
Some vaccinations are mandatory.
These days...
There are many cases of adopting children.
The old man and the old lady looked at Jian Qingyi and said nothing.
"Sister-in-law, why can't we adopt a child?" Lu Xingning was a little puzzled.
It’s not like their family can’t afford to support them.
"Adopting a child is not like raising a cat or a dog. You have to spend time and energy to raise and accompany the child. A child is not a cat or a dog either. He has an independent personality and thoughts." Jian Qingyi picked up the juice and took a sip.
"What does this have to do with adopting a child?" Lu Xingning still didn't understand.
"Let me give you an example. In a disaster year, when life and death are at stake, you only have one steamed bun in your hand, and there are two children standing in front of you, one is your biological child, and the other is adopted, but has been raised by you since childhood. Will you give the steamed bun to the biological child or the adopted one?" Jian Qingyi asked.
"Can't we each take half?" Lu Xingning frowned.
Jian Qingyi shook her head.
Lu Xingning thought about it for a long time but couldn't come up with an answer.
She couldn't let go of her biological children, nor could she abandon her adopted ones.
After a long silence, she looked at Jian Qingyi, "Sister-in-law, if it were you, what would you choose?"
