Chapter 214 Asking for Red Envelopes



Tiantian pointed at Uncle Su and said that what she meant was that since there was already a great-grandfather, she followed Rourou and the others in calling him that, and now they should also follow Rourou and the others in calling him great-grandfather. This way it would be fair and there would be no duplication...

"Why... Great Grandpa..." Dandan only learned the last sentence.

Song Kunxian: “…” No wonder Su Laoer complained, “Tsk tsk” Now he is taking advantage of the situation and even taking advantage of his reputation…

Uncle Su coughed lightly, and he looked as proud as he could be...

"How can a child have so many whys?" Xu Ningxue patted him and smiled sweetly.

"Hurry up and line up to wish your great-grandfathers a happy new year. There will be red envelopes for you to give out."

Grandma Song shouted with a smile.

"Happy New Year, Great Grandpa."

Rourou pulled Moomo and stood in front of Song Kunxian, "Grandpa, happy New Year." The two brothers shouted with a smile.

"Grandpa, Dabao wishes you a happy new year."

Dabao is older and can basically understand what adults say.

"Red envelopes!" Ermao, Xiaohei, and Dabao were all shouting. It was hilarious! Ermao and Xiaohei were also chirping, "Ga ga, baa baa," their little heads tilting from side to side, their eyes fixed on the red envelope in Song Kunxian's hand.

"Grandpa, you can't be stingy. Ermao and Xiaohei just called you. You have to give them red envelopes. Grandpa Su and my uncle will also give them red envelopes."

When Dabao saw that his great-grandfather had not given Ermao and the others red envelopes, he immediately explained.

Hu Ye: “…” Will they spend the red envelopes they are given? Do they understand what money is?

Ermao: “…” I don’t know how to spend money? You’re looking down on the goose! It’s a goose with a small stash of money!

Song Kunxian looked at the two in front of him, raised his eyebrows, and reached out to take out two red envelopes.

He didn't expect that Ermao and Xiaohei would pick up one each.

Under the shocked gazes of him and Hu Ye, they quickly and skillfully stuffed the red envelopes into the cloth bags around their necks, as if it was the most natural thing to do.

Hu Ye, in particular, had his eyes wide open, almost unable to believe what he saw. The corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously, trying to hide his inner surprise and confusion.

It seemed that Chief Su and Uncle Song were accustomed to this scene.

Hu Ye: “…” Although there are only two days, he has to get along well with the big goose and the sheep in these two days!

Otherwise, he and Secretary Song would be like country bumpkins coming to the city, totally out of place with them...

Ermao and Xiaohei, these two clever little guys, as soon as they got the red envelopes, they looked around with a cunning gleam in their eyes, looking for the next target, which made Song Chucheng want to cover his face.

After receiving the red envelopes, they immediately changed the person to wish the New Year. Our Secretary Song and Hu Ye looked at the two of them. They seemed to be masters of wishing the New Year who had rehearsed countless times. They were just short of speaking!

What they didn't know was that they actually guessed right. Before the Rourou brothers were born, they followed Dabao to visit New Year's greetings everywhere.

Dabao and Tiantian don’t need to learn from Ermao and the others. In fact, the two brothers and sisters are the masters of the two!

Although Rourou Moomoo is young, he is not willing to be outdone by Dabao and Ermao's actions.

She put her hands together and called out cutely, "Great Grandpa" and "Great Grandpa" with her eyes full of anticipation.

After getting the red envelopes, the two brothers cheered and followed Dabao. Dandan and the others lined up, one after another, like a group of little ducks, following behind Ermao and Xiaohei, forming a cheerful team.

Suddenly, the whole yard was filled with laughter...

The morning light of the first day of the Lunar New Year gently woke up Song Chucheng through the curtains, and he stretched lazily.

The courtyard outside was a blanket of white snow—a truly breathtaking sight! 1977! A year filled with hope and dreams. This year, countless lives were transformed, and a brand new era began.

…………

Seeing that the two brothers were nowhere to be seen, I knew in my heart that they must have followed Xiaozhi and his brothers, as well as the grandchildren of my uncle, to the village to pay New Year's greetings and visit relatives happily.

These days at his uncle's house, Song Chucheng's impression of his grandfather has become more and more profound!

Her grandfather's eyes, though a little cloudy due to old age, were still bright and full of spirit, as if he could see through your body into your heart. His back, though slightly bent, was still straight and upright, as if to declare to others: "I'm not old yet, I can still do it!"

Grandpa's every move exuded a leisurely and contented demeanor, a calmness and resilience gained through the passage of time. He always did things slowly and steadily, as if time was of no importance to him.

Yesterday, her grandfather specifically told them, especially her mother, that when they met her uncle, aunt and grandmother, they did not need to mention the prominent family background and status of her grandparents, Uncle Song and the Su family. They only needed to simply introduce them as people from Beijing.

In fact, Grandpa Song was thinking of Song Hanghang. He would ask Song Qiuyue to inquire about the affairs of Songjia Village.

None of his daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law are worry-free! If he lets something slip when he goes back to his mother's house, his grandchildren and great-grandchildren will happily come back for the New Year, but they must not let these trivial matters make things unhappy!

Her sister-in-law just came back a few more times than she did, so the two of them didn't know anything. In any case, it was always right to listen to her grandfather.

Song Chucheng got up, washed, changed his clothes and went out.

When Song's mother saw her eldest daughter approaching, she called out, "Chengzi, are you up? Go have breakfast with your eldest and second sisters-in-law."

The two sisters-in-law and Song Chucheng got up one after another.

"Okay! Mom, I'll go right away!" Song Chucheng said as she walked into the house and took a look.

"Grandma, you're all alone here. Where are grandpa and uncle?"

"Your grandfather and your two uncles have gone out with the goose and the sheep!" Grandma Song said with a smile. "Go have breakfast first and ignore them."

The sheep and the goose were the treasures that Grandma Song was most curious about at the moment. "You know what, these little guys are really smart."

Just this morning, after listening to what her great-grandson said, Grandma Song liked Ermao and the others even more.

Not only her, but even Mr. Song and Hu Ye's eyes lit up when they heard it, but Uncle Song had no expression.

However, there was one thing that only Hu Ye knew: seeing Uncle Song follow Ermao and the others out, it meant that he was also curious and interested in them. Otherwise, why would he follow them out?

But Uncle Song following Ermao and the others was secondary; his real purpose was to chat with Song Jingyu.

He asked Song Jingyu to take him around the village, sometimes to the fields, sometimes to the cowshed, and sometimes to the educated youth center. He asked Song Jingyu all kinds of questions as they walked.
