Chapter 116: Haircut in the First Month of the Year (1/2)



The children get up early in the morning on New Year's Day and go out to pay New Year's greetings.

After visiting all the relatives and friends during the New Year, you will have more red envelopes in your hands.

Not everyone gets a red envelope. Only those with close family relations, such as An Hua and Zhou Meihua's families, get one. The amount in the envelope is not much, just a few dimes, just a token of their appreciation. The rest of the children would at most be given a few candies when they wished a happy new year.

However, Dongdong had a thick stack of red envelopes in his hand.

Seeing this, Xiao Zheng paused and opened the red envelope to take a look.

The amount is not small.

Five dollars, ten dollars, and the highest one is fifty dollars.

An Hua leaned over to take a look and was startled, "Why are there so many?"

But if you think about it a little, you will understand what is going on.

Giving red envelopes to children is simply for the sake of adults' face.

Dongdong wrote his name on every red envelope he received, for fear that Xiao Zheng would not know who gave it to him.

Xiao Zheng was very angry, "Every day, he keeps doing these crooked things!"

Dongdong thought his father was angry with him and looked at his mother anxiously.

An Hua patted his head and comforted him, "It's okay, Daddy is not saying anything bad to you. But Dongdong, you must never accept anything someone gives you in the future, especially money, okay?"

Dongdong nodded sullenly.

An Hua continued, "Of course, it's not your fault that you received these red envelopes this time. It's New Year's greetings, and it's normal for children to receive red envelopes. You didn't know there was so much money in the red envelopes, right?"

Dongdong smiled and said, "Mom, I won't accept anything from uncles and aunts I don't know."

An Hua praised him, "That's right, that's what Mom meant."

An Hua took the red envelopes and returned them one by one according to the names on them.

The one with the largest amount of fifty yuan was packed by Wang Heping.

He didn't expect An Hua to return the red envelope. He said awkwardly, "An Hua is too polite. This is just New Year's money for the children. It's Chinese New Year."

An Hua smiled and said, "Deputy Political Commissar Wang is too generous. The red envelope is too big. I'm afraid that he will spoil the child. Dongdong is at the right age to establish a sense of money. What if he develops extravagant habits?"

After An Hua finished speaking, she left without waiting for Wang Heping to speak again.

Wang Heping sighed in frustration, went back to the house, and threw the red envelope in his hand on the table.

Liao Sanmei glanced at him cautiously and didn't dare to speak.

Wang Heping suddenly shouted, "Chun Ya, Chun Ya, come here."

Chunya came over bouncing.

Wang Heping asked her gently, "Why haven't I seen you playing with Dongdong recently?"

Chunya said: "Dongdong and Tiantian, as well as Shen Aiguo, are playing together."

Wang Heping said: "Then you can also join in. Children should not be unsociable."

Chunya thought about it and said, “Shen Aiguo said my eldest sister was like a quail, so I had a quarrel with her.”

Wang Heping said anxiously, "Why did you quarrel with Political Commissar Shen's daughter? You should get along well with them! Especially Dongdong, didn't you get along well with him before? You should invite him to your home more often in the future."

Wang Heping also disliked Shen Jun because Shen Jun's sudden arrival cut off his path to promotion, but he would not openly oppose Shen Jun. Instead, he had to maintain a good relationship with him.

After instructing his daughter, Wang Heping said to Liao Sanmei, "Please prepare some snacks at home. Whenever Dongdong and the others come, take them out to entertain them."

Liao Sanmei just nodded and said nothing.

"say!"
