Even an old antique like Cheng Youmin wanted to come up with a dish named after him! But he had been digging for food all his life and couldn't think of anything to eat.
"If our business gets busy tomorrow, we won't be able to finish the work in the fields. What I mean is that we can ask someone to help. Of course, if you want to temporarily stop the business and focus on the farm work first, that's fine too. It's up to you to decide."
Su Qianqian has a modern mindset and doesn’t attach much importance to farming, but this generation has a deep affection for the land, and she will respect their affection.
After all, excluding the busy farming season, one can still earn a lot of money a year, which is more than enough to improve the family's living conditions.
"Don't worry, we can think about this matter slowly." Cheng Song said.
He and Wu Yuexiang have now experienced the joy of doing business. It is tiring but earns a lot. Farming is tiring but earns little. He will definitely choose to do business, but his parents may not think so. So he will wait and see.
"Mother of Erbao, how do you know so much? Are you really a fairy from heaven?" Zhu Tianfang is always shocked by Su Qianqian.
Cheng Yue held his forehead with his hand, "Mom, a fairy is a fairy, and a spirit is a spirit. What is a fairy spirit?"
"Yes, it's a very powerful thing. No, no, no, it's really powerful! Fairies always feel high and mighty, and spirits are often bad. Fairy spirits are good and approachable."
Su Qianqian choked on her soda.
Ahem, okay, this explanation sounds strange, but inexplicably reasonable.
As we chatted, it was soon twelve o'clock.
"We're here, let's go out and set off the firecrackers!" Cheng Song stood up excitedly, took the firecrackers and went out, and Cheng Yue also went to get some.
Last year, my family made a lot of money and we bought a lot of firecrackers.
The two brothers each took a match and lit the firecrackers.
Suddenly there was a crackling sound, and it was very lively.
The children covered their ears but were very excited. They were not afraid at all and just felt proud of the fun.
"Let's buy fireworks for the New Year next year," Su Qianqian suggested.
If fireworks are set off, the atmosphere of the New Year will be even more intense. Besides, the next New Year will be 1980, and the material conditions in the 1980s will be much better than those in the 1970s.
"fireworks?"
"Yes, the kind that will explode when you put it on. Very beautiful. Let's buy some and set them off next year!" Su Qianqian knew that they didn't know anything about fireworks. Even food and clothing have been a problem these days. Who would want to set off fireworks?
The three little ones were so excited that they jumped up and shouted, "Set off fireworks! Set off fireworks next year!"
The sound of firecrackers attracted the neighbors next door to come out, and they all looked at us with envy.
"Tian Fang, you really gave birth to a good son! I wish my son could be as successful as Cheng Yue."
The people in Tianshui Brigade still believed that the Cheng family was getting better and better because of Cheng Yue, and they didn’t know that they were doing business. Or even if they knew that they were selling things, they wouldn’t think they could make much money.
"Happy New Year! I wish you all your wishes come true, your family is reunited, and you will be prosperous!" Su Qianqian immediately said auspicious words to the neighbors, and suddenly there was a peaceful atmosphere, and everyone wished each other a happy new year.
"Come on, it's time to give out red envelopes for the New Year." Cheng Yue took out the red envelopes and gave them to everyone. "This is a blessing red envelope. If anyone doesn't want it, they don't want the blessing!"
Who dared to refuse? Everyone happily accepted it.
Chu Luo carefully put the red envelope in his pocket. It was great to have New Year’s money. Grandpa and grandma, mom and dad, Happy New Year!
I hope mom and dad will stop arguing and I hope they can be happy!
Su Qianqian naturally also received the New Year's money from Cheng Yue. She was very happy. She also prepared red envelopes and distributed them around. Zhu Tianfang and Cheng Song also prepared some.
After distributing the money around, the children were almost out of money.
"Mom, can I keep my New Year's money for myself?" Chuanchuan looked at Wu Yuexiang expectantly while holding the New Year's money. It was so much money that he was reluctant to give it away.
Wu Yuexiang thought about it.
"You can keep it, but don't spend it recklessly. After the New Year, calculate how much New Year's money you have. I'll check how much is left next year. If you spend it recklessly, you won't be able to keep it yourself next year."
"No problem! I will definitely not spend money recklessly. Auntie said that I should keep account of my spending. I keep account of everything now!" Chuan Chuan said excitedly. He took the New Year's money back to the house and put it away. He also took out a small notebook and said, "Look, this is how I keep account."
Eraser, five cents.
Glass marbles, two cents.
Soda, eight cents.
…
I remember it very clearly.
This surprised everyone. They didn't expect Chuanchuan could keep accounts at such a young age.
Su Qianqian remembered that she had only mentioned to Chuanchuan about the few deposits, but she didn't expect Chuanchuan to remember it.
"Chuanchuan, that's great. This is the money your aunt gives you as a reward." Su Qianqian took out a dollar and gave it to him.
One dollar can buy a lot of things, which is definitely a huge sum of money for a child.
"Thank you, auntie. I wish you make more money in the new year, stay young and beautiful, and always love uncle!"
The last half sentence made Su Qianqian feel a little embarrassed.
However, Cheng Yue was very pleased with it, and immediately took out a dollar and gave it to Chuan Chuan generously, "This dollar is a reward from your uncle."
Chuanchuan feels that this is the happiest New Year!
He is so rich! Much richer than his classmates and friends!
The three little ones were not jealous because they all had pocket money, and it was not a small amount. Su Qianqian consciously cultivated the concept of financial management in them.
This concept needs to be cultivated from an early age, otherwise it will be troublesome to correct it when they grow up.
Many times, when a person is poor, what is poor is his thoughts, his ideas, and the many negative things that have been instilled into him since childhood.
After returning to the room, Su Qianqian called the four children over.
"Daya, do you remember what mom told you about how to spend the New Year's money?"
"Remember!" San Ya did not open the New Year's money, but divided the six red envelopes into three parts. "Divide it roughly first, and then divide it carefully when we return to Nancheng. One part is for savings. You can't spend this money, no matter what. Mom said that you can use it to make money. Although I don't understand, I'll put it aside for now."
"The second part is for realizing my dreams. If I want to buy something expensive or learn something, I can use this money. The third part is for daily pocket money."
Su Qianqian patted her head with satisfaction, "Great, you remembered everything mom said, you can help your brothers and sisters manage the money."
"Yes, I will." Daya nodded proudly.
Chu Luo was stunned as he listened to this, he had never known that money could be allocated in this way, he basically spent all the pocket money his grandparents gave him, thinking that no adults would give him more anyway, and he didn't seem to have anything expensive that he particularly wanted to buy, so it didn't matter.
