The two siblings never expected that their younger sister's blessing would actually require them to give her a red envelope.
But my younger sister has already wished them a Happy New Year, so it wouldn't be right not to give them a red envelope.
With a heavy heart, they each took out a dime from the red envelopes they had just received and placed them in the little girl's two chubby outstretched palms.
Xiao Ya happily put the two cents in her hand together with the one dollar she had before, and then winked at Gou Dan, the twin.
After holding it in for a long time, Gou Dan finally said to Xiu Hua and Tie Dan, "Happy New Year."
As soon as he finished speaking, the others naturally followed suit.
After going around in circles, Xiuhua and Tiedan were heartbroken to find that the one yuan they had in their red envelopes had now dwindled to only three mao (0.3 yuan).
This time, it's a real drain on resources!
The younger children, having received two extra red envelopes, cheered and ran out to play hand in hand.
Watching their joyful figures disappear into the distance, Xiuhua and Tiedan exchanged a glance, but couldn't help but smile.
On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, all the educated youth who had gone back before the New Year returned.
One of the educated youths brought a message that a group of people from Zhangjia Village had stormed into an old woman's house, saying that the old woman's son had cheated her out of money. Since the son had been arrested, they could only settle accounts with the old woman.
Unfortunately, the old woman had no money at all, and the group searched the place thoroughly before leaving disappointed.
However, although no one was hurt, he was still severely punished by the village.
This was told to him by a fellow educated youth from Zhangjia Village who returned with him, who also said that the entire family had become useless.
Therefore, the village chief only gave verbal reprimands, afraid of being too harsh.
But those people have all become like this now, and nothing can be changed in the future.
Even after being verbally reprimanded by the village chief, he would secretly sneak back to the educated youth settlement to try and bully the female educated youth.
Fortunately, there were only two male educated youths at the educated youth settlement that day; otherwise, who knows what might have happened.
When the female educated youth returned and learned about this, she was frightened. She said to the village chief, "How could the village chief reprimand someone for something that didn't happen?"
So, this is just another warning.
It was tough on the female educated youth at the settlement; they dared not go out at night, fearing that the family might suddenly pounce on them from behind when they weren't looking.
When faced with this news, Ning Jing, like Wang Guihua, simply sighed.
He turned around and threw himself into the struggle at the breeding farm.
Down jackets, down comforters, rabbit fur yarn, plus chicken, duck, fish and meat—even though the New Year has just passed, Ning Jing wished she could use her feet as well.
After distributing money to everyone before the New Year, the brigade headquarters immediately had much less money left.
With the money from the new sales coming in, the village cadres at the brigade headquarters finally felt less anxious.
This time, Xishan Village was once again recognized as an advanced brigade, and Tan Dingguo happily brought back two enamel cups and two towels.
These two items were given to him by the leaders as a reward to the two best workers in the village.
In the blink of an eye, winter will be over and spring will be coming.
After a while, we can sow the seeds.
The children have returned to school, and during this time, it's impossible to just sit idle; naturally, everyone needs to rebuild the reservoir.
Just as Ning Jing was talking to Wang Guihua, squatting by the sink washing the vegetables she was going to cook that day.
An old woman with bound feet rushed towards her carrying a bucket of something she didn't recognize.
Then, with a "splash," Ning Jing was splashed directly by the bucket of stuff.
