As soon as the sound of firecrackers sounded, Lin Mo would throw these things into the air and let the villagers and children scramble for them, which meant to help liven up the new house.
"Set off firecrackers! It's a great time!"
The village chief called out, and Lin Mo followed Su Mu, holding two baskets of lucky money, and ran into the courtyard. They were followed by a group of children and villagers, who followed them while making a lot of noise.
Lin Mo was driven by this joy and was filled with excitement. He subconsciously grabbed a handful of lucky money and threw it into the crowd.
Lin Wu's face was also full of excitement. He followed Lin Mo's actions, grabbed a handful of lucky money and threw it to the familiar crowd.
The children and adults in the village instantly screamed with joy, and everyone swarmed on the ground to grab wedding cakes and candies. Those who were lucky could pick up a lot of wedding money.
Especially Tuanzi and Lin Wen, they were running around in the crowd like crazy, following a group of children from the village. Relying on their small stature and because of the things that Old Lin Wu threw in their direction, they reaped a rich harvest.
Amidst the blast of firecrackers, the bustling crowd slowly dispersed as the contents of the winnowing basket were scattered. Everyone excitedly counted their spoils, then quickly ran to the threshing ground for their feast.
Many adults who watched them counting the coins were beating their chests and stamping their feet in regret, regretting that they did not follow them to grab the lucky money.
Because of the lucky money brought by the wine when entering the house, few people would be willing to put copper coins, and even if they did, they would only put about ten. But Lin Mo was different. He really wanted to have fun, so he put in hundreds of red coins.
There was a young man who had been following Lin Wen, secretly stealing at least seven or eight cents!
When seeing him counting the copper coins, many villagers regretted it so much that their intestines turned green.
"Amo, Amo, I stole a lot of money!" Lin Wen ran to Lin Mo's side excitedly. He only stole money and not wedding candies or cakes, so he grabbed seven or eight copper coins in his little hand.
As soon as he got to Lin Mo, he stuffed the food into Lin Mo's hands with a smile, his mouth almost grinning from ear to ear with joy.
"Dad! I grabbed a lot too! I grabbed five!"
Tuanzi's face was also full of excitement. He opened the pockets of his long gown, and inside were copper coins as well as wedding candies and cakes. The little guy's face flushed with excitement, and he walked towards Lao Gu with the things in his pockets.
With Lin Wu's intentional care, the two of them made a lot of money.
Seeing them sweating profusely but still smiling with dazzling white teeth, Lin Mo also laughed.
"Why didn't you join in the robbing? If you had, I would have picked up the red coins and thrown them to you." Lin Mo looked at Su Mu's smiling eyes and joked.
Su Mu glared at him and said softly, "I grabbed it, but I just couldn't squeeze in."
There were too many people, and he was stuck on the periphery, unable to squeeze into the middle, and was almost stepped on a few times.
The family chatted as they walked towards the threshing ground. It was time for the formal banquet. After the sound of firecrackers, the banquet began. Many of those who ran fast had already started eating.
Lin Mo was not in a hurry, because as the head of the family, he had to sit at the same table with the elders of the village. The elders of the village were naturally the village chief, the head of the village, and those older and higher-ranking members of the Lin family.
The weather is very good today. The sun has reached its highest point and it is the scorching hottest time of the day. However, today's banquet is very lively. No matter how hot the weather is, it can't stop everyone from being excited about the banquet.
Lin Mo gave everyone in the shop a paid holiday, and today they also had a banquet in the village. Lu A'mo was busy directing the women and brothers in the village. After everyone had filled the tables, she called on the young men to start serving the dishes to each table.
"Iron! I haven't seen you for a long time. How come you're getting fatter and fatter? Working in the Lin family shop, the food must be good. I see you look so rosy and you look more and more beautiful!"
The woman sitting at the same table with Wang Gangtie couldn't help but speak. Her eyes fell on Wang Gangtie, and the more she looked at him, the more envious she became. Although Wang Gangtie used to be fat, his face was always dark, unlike now, when his face was so fresh and lively.
Wang Gangtie was not annoyed. He grinned and said loudly without reservation: "Of course, the food in the shop is very good. Several of us in the village who work in the shop eat meat every day. Besides that, the boss also buys us cakes."
As he spoke, Wang Gangtie showed off his arm flesh again, "Look, I've gained a lot of weight in just a few months."
"That's right! Forget about Steel! I just looked at the others, and they've all gained a lot of weight."
"They used to be as skinny as that dried-up ghost, but now they've all changed a lot and have new clothes!"
"That's right. Not only do I get paid every month, but I also get to eat meat every day. I don't know if the Lin family still needs people. I want to ask if they can send my daughter to work there too!"
“…”
The six people working in the shop are now popular in the village. No matter which one of them walks out of the village, he will be asked to chat by the women and brothers in the village. They will talk about everything from food, clothing, housing and transportation to wages and marriage.
Especially those two brothers, who used to be marginal figures looked down upon by the village, but now people have started to look at them one after another. Even Wang Gangtie has been introduced to them twice by the matchmaker.
Wang Gangtie was able to chat with them at first, but when the other party started begging her to help introduce their children to work in the shop, she didn't know how to respond. She said no a hundred times, but those people still kept beating around the bush.
Even a few familiar relatives tried to claim kinship with her, as if they would be considered heartless and unforgivable bastards if they were not introduced to her.
Fortunately, when the dishes were served, they were only busy stuffing the food into their mouths and had no time to argue with her, so she was able to finish her meal quickly and leave.
The brothers of the Lin family each had their own circle. Lin Sheng was busy greeting the women and elders he knew in the village, Lin Wu helped greet young men of similar age to him, Su Mu was busy greeting those from the construction team, and Lin Mo was pulled by the village chief to greet the elders in the village.
