"Mom, no matter what happens at home, you must tell me!"
"I know. I'll discuss with you how to fart! Where to fart? Just keep it to yourself and don't tell anyone else!" the old lady instructed.
First of all, extorting money from others is not a glorious thing, and wealth should not be shown to others.
"I know. I won't tell Zhao Dahe!" Xiu leaned on the old lady's legs and acted like a spoiled child.
The old lady touched the girl's hair and said, "Xiu, don't make yourself too miserable."
"Mom, I'm not suffering at all. My life is so much better now than before. I'm so content!"
The old lady didn't say anything more. She said it was her own life to live, as long as she was happy, what could outsiders know?
Wu Zhiqiu and Liu Cuihua went to Lao Shi's house to help. Many people from the village had already arrived.
The old man's coffin and shroud have been prepared long ago. The family will just hold a simple memorial service, not a big event, and will carry it up the mountain tomorrow morning.
They couldn't help much here, so they chatted with the villagers for a while and then went home.
The next morning, the Xiu family had breakfast and went home. Wu Zhiqiu gave red envelopes to all the children.
The roads were slippery on snowy days, so they all came on foot.
On the way back, the pretty girl Zhao Na took out the red envelope from her pocket.
"Mom, my aunt only gave me three dollars." Zhao Na pouted
"Sister, three yuan is not enough for you?" The third child, Zhao Baoshan, also took out his own New Year's money, also three yuan.
"My aunt gave Luo Panpan a piece of cake! I saw it all!" Zhao Na's face was full of dissatisfaction.
"I haven't given a cent to your uncle's child yet, how come you didn't see it? Luo Panpan is alone, she got one dollar, and you two got six dollars, right? It's more than Luo Panpan! And you're still not satisfied." Xiu scolded
"My elder brother doesn't have it either!" Zhao Na muttered softly.
"The rule in our family is that you don't have to be a clerk after you are 18, and I'm already 20! Sister, you won't have one next year either," the eldest brother Zhao Baoyu teased his sister with a smile
"No, I won't go next year!" Zhao Na pouted.
"It's up to you to go or not. Do you think your grandma's family needs a piece of stinky meat like you? You're a grown-up girl, but you don't even offer to help with the housework when you get here? You're so lazy! I won't take you with you even if you want to go next year!" Xiu scolded.
"Sister Fengchun didn't do any work, why should I do that?" Zhao Na was not convinced.
"You want to compete in everything. Why don't you compete when I ask you to study? Fengchun will take the college entrance examination next year. Isn't it normal for you to do less work? If you also go to high school, I won't let you work!" Xiu pointed at the girl's head and scolded
Baoyu and Baoshan didn't dare to say a word. Zhao Dahe walked faster in front of them, grumbling. Danger warning from behind! Evacuate quickly!
When it comes to studying, Zhao Na closes her eyes. She really can't concentrate on studying. She is not cut out for studying! As soon as she gets to the classroom, she can only hear the music outside the window, and can't get any book into her mind.
She took out the red envelope Liu Cuihua gave her and said, "Second aunt only gave one dollar, but you gave one dollar each to Xingsong and Xingping."
Xiu: "Don't go next year. You'll be like a demon when you come back. I won't take you with me next time. Let's see how you can still be so pretentious!"
"My second aunt is the most snobbish. She even secretly gave bananas to Luo Panpan! She didn't even give us any!" Zhao Na's eyes and mouth were very useful. She kept staring at Luo Panpan.
"Your aunt's family is more powerful than ours. Can our family help you in the way they can? Isn't it normal for them to curry favor with you? You don't have that ability, so stop thinking about things that don't belong to you." Xiu was so angry at her daughter. She just loved to compare herself with others, and she didn't even look at herself to see if she was in the same class as others.
"Second sister, stop staring at Luo Panpan! Her conditions are better than ours, you can't be jealous enough!" Baoshan felt that her mother was right and that she should not think about things that did not belong to her.
Zhao Na was so angry. Why did she miss it? It was because her grandmother's family looked down on her family! Her mother refused to admit it!
She was so angry that she strode after Zhao Dahe in front of her and told her father.
