"Happy New Year." Yan Hejun had no expression on his face, but there was tenderness in his eyes.
Song Man nodded with a smile, "Happy New Year, may you be prosperous in the new year."
"Happy New Year, sister-in-law. I wish you success in your career and a happy marriage in the new year." Yan Ruhai's mouth is pleasing.
Zhong Yuxiu accepted it with a smile, took out a red envelope from her pocket and gave it to him, "Thank you for your blessing, I wish you good luck."
"Sister-in-law, I'm so old now, and you still give me red envelopes." Yan Ruhai didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and his heart felt warm and hot.
Not for the money, but for the thought.
"No matter how old you are, and you haven't got a job or married yet, take it." Zhong Yuxiu stuffed it into his hand. "It's just this once, and it will be gone next year."
"Just accept it if your sister-in-law gave it to you." Yan Rushan smiled on his handsome face.
Yan Guofeng opened his mouth and said: "Since your brother said so, keep it; be nice to your sister-in-law in the future, because she always thinks about you." If his granddaughter-in-law treats his brother well before marrying into the family, she will be fine in the future.
Not to mention that her true colors would be revealed after they got to the house, he felt that it was impossible; he knew a little about Zhong Yuxiu's personality, and she was not the kind of person who was two-faced.
"Okay, I'll accept it shamelessly. Thank you, sister-in-law." Yan Ruhai thanked her with a smile and took the red envelope with both hands to express his respect for her.
"That's right, we're all family." Yan Rushan took Yuxiu's hand and said, "Besides, your sister-in-law is not short of money."
Song Man stepped forward and patted him lightly, "Yuxiu is not short of money. That is Yuxiu's business. After we get married, all your money will be kept by Yuxiu. You have been a spendthrift since childhood. I don't feel comfortable with you having too much money in your pocket."
"Of course." Yan Rushan agreed.
"Yuxiu, sit down and rest for a while, then go play chess with your grandfather." Song Man pulled Yan Hejun to the kitchen, and Yan Ruhai followed in.
"Come and sit down." Yan Guofeng chatted amiably, pointing to the sofa across from him. "Being cultured is different. The blessings are especially nice. Come, sit next to grandpa. We won't play chess today. When someone comes to pay New Year's greetings later, you and Rushan can get to know them."
"Okay, thank you Grandpa Yan." Those who come to visit Grandpa Yan to wish him a happy new year are all people with connections.
In the kitchen, Song Man said to Yan Hejun, "Go upstairs and pack a big red envelope. Let's put five hundred in it to show our appreciation. We didn't give Yuxiu a red envelope the first time she came up here. It was our oversight. We forgot about it today, during the Chinese New Year. It's really wrong. If Yuxiu hadn't given Xiaohai a red envelope, I wouldn't have remembered it."
When the girl comes to visit the boy's family, the boy's parents will give him a red envelope if they are satisfied. This custom has changed a lot when the turmoil came. Families who are more particular will give something, but families who are not particular will do the same.
Yan Hejun responded, walked out of the kitchen and went upstairs.
Yan Ruhai asked, "Mom, when I bring my girlfriend home in the future, do I have to do this too?"
"What else?" After rolling her eyes at her youngest son, Song Man said helplessly, "Not everyone you bring home has to receive a red envelope. We have to be satisfied and have high hopes for you before we'll give it to you."
Yan Ruhai: “….”
There are so many twists and turns, the adult world is so complicated.
"So, you better keep it stable. If you are not sure you want to marry someone, don't bring her back. We don't have the patience to meet her, and we won't entertain you." His words were very realistic and understandable.
"oh."
Yan Ruhai didn't care much about it. People who don't have a partner don't consider those things.
"Don't give me such a perfunctory look." Song Man glared at him. "Be more careful. I'm not worried about your brother anymore. Your sister-in-law is a very calculating person. As long as nothing unexpected happens, she and your brother will definitely be able to live a good life. You've been careless and heartless since you were a child. Your father and I will definitely have to worry about you in the future."
"I know, Mom. I'm already this old, please give me some face in public." Yan Ruhai smiled and chatted with his mother while helping.
Yan Hejun came down from upstairs and went straight to the kitchen, and handed the red envelope to Song Man immediately.
"You give it."
"Okay." Song Man took it in her hand and walked out of the kitchen with him.
Yan Guofeng was smiling and looked very kind. He was talking to Yan Rushan and Zhong Yuxiu. No one knew what they were talking about, but Zhong Yuxiu and Yan Rushan smiled at each other.
Song Man saw it and felt relieved.
"Dad, what are you talking about? You're laughing so happily."
"Let's talk about Dashan's childhood. Dashan has always been more stable than Xiaohai, and he has more ideas. The little guy can always make the kids in the compound run around in circles. At that time, I sighed that Dashan was a good candidate to be a commander." Who would have thought that he would take a completely different path when he grew up.
Song Man chuckled, "Indeed, Dashan was fair and clean when he was little, as delicate as a piece of jade. Everywhere he went, everyone would say he was a good-looking kid! He was also well-behaved and sensible, and whenever he did something bad, no one would suspect him. Even if other children said he was the one who started it, no one would believe it!"
"In our compound, children of Dashan's generation were punished every day. It was common to hear children crying loudly. For a while, I became nervous whenever I heard the children crying in the compound. I was afraid that my Dashan was restless again."
"White cut black." Yan Hejun nodded in agreement for once.
Zhong Yuxiu couldn't help laughing. She didn't know how cute Yan Rushan was when he was a child. It was a bit of a pity. Naturally black babies are rare. If such children are guided well, they will grow up to be pretty good.
Yan Guofeng shook his head and laughed, "Ever since I knew Dashan was restless and had a bad temper, I've put a lot of effort into teaching him a lesson. For a while, I even threw him into the army to train with the new recruits to guide his patriotic thinking."
The conversation was lively, and Zhong Yuxiu pieced together the memory of Yan Rushan as a child.
Do bad things seriously.
He is very treacherous and knows how to pretend. I wonder what his children will be like in the future.
She suddenly looked forward to having a child with him.
"Yuxiu! When you came here before, we didn't remember for a moment. You know that many customs have been lost." Song Man took her hand, put the big red envelope in her hand, pressed her hand, and made her palm close. "It was our negligence, please don't blame us."
"Aunt Yan's condition is serious. I understand. I hadn't thought about it before. When I was leaving, I suddenly remembered that Xiao Hai didn't have a job yet. My adoptive father used to give me red envelopes every Chinese New Year, and he never missed one even when I was sixteen or seventeen." Before the girl from the Wan family came back, Wan Xuetang was really good to the original owner.
The original owner and the Wan family had a messy debt that could not be settled. For her, the death of the original owner marked the end of her relationship with the Wan family.
"Good child, you don't have to be so sensible as a little girl." Sensible children are often the result of the trials and tribulations of life. Only after they have suffered too much hardship and grievance will children become overly sensible.
Children who are brought up in a pampered environment will be somewhat selfish and domineering in their bones. It is not that being pampered is bad, but it is difficult for them to change once they are used to being pampered.
There is a saying: It takes three years to learn good things, and three days to learn bad things.
