Su Congjun's face also turned red, his lips moved but he couldn't speak.
"Look at these two kids, they're still embarrassed." Zhang Xinlan covered her mouth and laughed. The whole family looked at her and laughed.
Su Congjun and Wen Sisi looked at each other and felt even more embarrassed.
"Everyone take them one by one."
Everyone took the red envelope from Wu Guixiang in turn. Zhang Xinlan took the one that belonged to Su Congwen. She was very happy because her son's was now hers.
"What time is it now?" Wu Guixiang asked.
Su Congjun glanced at the time, "It's almost nine o'clock."
"It's so late?" Wu Guixiang stood up. "It's almost time. Let's all go to bed early." This is not the official Spring Festival, so there is no need to stay up all night.
"Go to sleep." Su Congwu yawned. He had just returned after a day's work and was already extremely sleepy.
Everyone went back to their rooms and prepared to rest. Zhang Xinlan sat on the bed and couldn't wait to open the red envelope. She had long wanted to see how much money was inside.
"Look at you. This New Year's money is just a token of your appreciation. How much can it be?" Su Aidang didn't care.
"It's all money, no matter how much it is." Zhang Xinlan curled her lips. This was a rare opportunity for her to take money with a clear conscience. The amount was not important. What was important was the meaning.
She opened the red envelope and her eyes widened when she saw the bills inside. "Aidang, guess how much?"
"How much can it be? Fifty cents?" Su Aidang took off his clothes and lay down. This was about the same amount in previous years.
"What fifty cents? It's five yuan! Five yuan!" Zhang Xinlan excitedly raised the five-yuan bill in her hand.
Su Aidang sat up suddenly, a little bit unbelievable, "Mom is so generous this year?"
"Don't you think about our family's income this year?" Zhang Xinlan thought for a moment and figured it out. "Several of our children are working this year, and we earn quite a bit every month. Even though Yunyun is still in school, she's the one who's contributed the most to our family's income this year."
"And the third brother, even he went to the team to help, and he brought back so many good things this time."
Zhang Xinlan felt jealous when she thought about the bonus Su Qingyun had won before, but no matter how jealous she was, she couldn't envy it, nor could she get it. However, she was content to get the five dollars.
It’s only New Year’s Day and they’re giving out five yuan. If it’s the Spring Festival, they’ll definitely get more. With this beautiful expectation, the couple fell asleep.
In the third room, Su Aimin was stuffing a bulging red envelope into Su Qingyun's hand.
"Here's your New Year's red envelope, my daughter." Su Aimin waved his hand proudly, "Take it first. There will be more during the Spring Festival. Then dad will give you a bigger one."
Su Qingyun was a little stunned, "So many?"
Qin Ying looked at her daughter and smiled softly, "This is the portion I gave to you and your father. If your grandparents were here, there would definitely be more."
Su Qingyun looked at the red envelope in her hand, a little stunned. New Year's money was something very unfamiliar to her. In her previous life, her family was well-off, but everyone was very polite to each other. Even among relatives, there was more respect than warmth.
She hardly feels anything about things like New Year's money, which represent normal expectations for children.
"Thank you, Dad. Thank you, Mom." She said slowly, her voice very soft.
"What are you thanking me for?" Qin Ying touched her head. "Go to bed."
"Good night, Mom and Dad."
Perhaps because they had eaten and drunk well, everyone slept very well on this night of bidding farewell to the old year and welcoming the new year.
The next day was New Year's Day, the first day of the new year, and a new calendar was also changed. Su Qingyun got up early and stood at the gate of the yard to breathe the fresh morning air.
She was in a very good mood. Today was the first day of the new year and also her first New Year here. If she counted carefully, she had been here for more than four months. The time passed so quickly that she didn't even realize it.
"Qingyun, why are you up so early?" Qin Youfu passed by Su's house and greeted her when he saw her.
"It's not early anymore." Su Qingyun said with a smile: "Uncle Youfu, where are you going?"
"Aren't we going to go check on the school's progress?" Qin Youfu said anxiously, "As the year passes, the start of the next semester is getting closer and closer. I'm really anxious."
The construction progress had already been delayed due to his negligence. If he really couldn't enroll students as scheduled, he didn't know how to explain it to the villagers.
"Uncle Youfu, don't worry." Su Qingyun comforted him, "The brick factory dared to make a promise, so of course they can do it. How could they, such a big factory, dare to destroy their own reputation?"
"How about?" Su Qingyun thought for a moment, "I'll go with you to take a look?" She had nothing to do anyway.
"That's great, let's go." Qin Youfu was naturally happy to do so.
The lesson from last time was profound, and he now had complete trust in Su Qingyun. Who knows, if she goes along this time, she might be able to find out some problems.
The two of them walked and talked as they arrived at the school. Today was New Year's Day, and the workers were on holiday.
Su Qingyun took a look and saw that the school was already more than half completed. At this rate, it would be ready for the start of school and enrollment.
She looked at the layout of the school and exclaimed in confusion. Before, she only noticed the quality issues and did not pay attention to the layout of the school.
"What's wrong, Qingyun?" Qin Youfu became nervous upon hearing her tone. "Is there something wrong?"
"Oh, it's okay." Su Qingyun smiled, letting him relax. "I was just looking at what this row of bungalows is for."
The school's layout is triangular, with a large playground facing a three-story teaching building. On the left and right are two rows of bungalows, one of which should be a toilet and the other is the teacher's office and security room.
