After the ancestral worship ceremony, it's time for the New Year's Eve dinner. That night, there's only cured meat; the chicken and fish are for the next morning.
Firecrackers are no longer allowed. You should know that in the 21st century, this province was the most lively and had the most fireworks displays.
According to custom, parents give their children lucky money, and the Liu family is no exception. Even Liu Aiguo and Xu Hongxing, who are married, receive lucky money. To be honest, Liu Yun really likes this activity. In the past, her grandparents would give her red envelopes every year, and what she looked forward to most was earning money quickly so that she could give red envelopes to her grandparents.
"Dad, Mom, I earned my own money this year. This is your New Year's money. I won't give you any more red envelopes for tomorrow's New Year's greetings."
When it was time to go to sleep after staying up all night, Liu Yun stuffed red envelopes into her parents' hands and left.
Actually, Liu's parents were quite good to their daughter. After being here for more than two years, looking at the original owner's parents' attitude towards her and the reasons that led to her ending, one part was the preference for sons over daughters. In this era, if not 100%, then at least 98% of the time it is like this. Another part was the original owner's own personality problem, but the reason for this personality was still due to her parents' neglect. The most important reason was the so-called protagonist's halo, the power of the plot!
Take the issue of finding a job, for example. Unless Xu Hongxing specifically asks to change jobs, the original owner's parents would never make such a request. Just like when they wanted Liu Jing to find a job, her parents strongly opposed it because Xiao Zhihua had helped them find one. Liu Jing, knowing full well that her chances of passing the exam were slim, still chose to repeat a year.
Even though the original owner did all the chores in the original book, it was just sweeping, washing clothes, and cooking. The dishes were cooked by Liu's mother. This was in the 1960s, which was actually quite easy. In fact, if the original owner had been a little more assertive, the job would never have been given up. Just like now, Liu's mother completely ignored Xu Hongxing's threats.
But none of that mattered to Liu Yun. She really had no feelings for her parents; she would only treat them as ordinary relatives. After all, she had used the original owner's body, so it was impossible for her to do nothing. But that was all.
Meanwhile, Mr. and Mrs. Liu looked at the red envelopes in their hands, exchanged glances, and were stunned when they opened them and saw the large sum of money inside. Finally, Mr. Liu sighed.
"Let's mind our own business less in the future and let them be. The children are all grown up and we're getting old."
"Um."
Both of them knew that they had indeed been too biased towards their eldest son over the years, and they couldn't continue like this. Most of the discord between the brothers was due to their parents' favoritism.
