Li Hanting took out a red envelope from his pocket and handed it over.
Li Yuehuan excitedly took it, eagerly opened it to read, her eyes lighting up, "Thank you, Second Brother."
Hehe! Another hundred yuan.
Su Jingjing and her mother-in-law were busy making breakfast in the kitchen when An'an and Yuanyuan ran in.
"Mom, there's a red envelope."
Simply put, it was wrapped in a red paper, and the brother and sister had at least several of them.
She asked curiously, "Who gave it to you?"
The little guy counted them off one by one: "Grandpa, Grandma, Uncle, and Aunt."
"And Auntie too," An'an added from behind.
“Brother is right,” Yuanyuan said with a grin. “Mom, I’ll give you all the red envelopes.”
Su Jingjing asked gently, "Why did you give it all to Mom?"
"That way, the baby won't have money to buy snacks."
Yuanyuan shook her head vigorously, saying, "Baby wants to earn money for Mommy to spend."
The original owner often mentioned money in front of her, and the young girl knew very well that her mother liked money.
Su Jingjing was taken aback. It seemed that the original owner had left a deep shadow in Yuanyuan's heart.
Seeing her granddaughter's adorable expression, Chen Shufang couldn't help but tease her, "Aren't you going to share Yuanyuan with Grandma?"
The little one paused for a moment, then stared at his grandmother with his round eyes.
He instinctively reached into his pocket, only to find it empty.
"Grandma, it's gone."
His face was full of grievance.
An'an comforted her, "Little sister, brother has more here."
Then he looked at Chen Shufang and said, "Grandma, here you go."
Chen Shufang affectionately patted the heads of the brother and sister, pushed the red envelopes back, and said dotingly, "Grandma was just joking. Let Mom keep them safe."
Suddenly, Li Yuehuan's cheerful voice came from outside, "An'an and Yuanyuan, come out quickly, Auntie has something fun here."
"Grandma, Mom, my sister and I are going out first."
An'an stuffed the red envelope into Su Jingjing's hand, then took Yuanyuan's hand and walked out.
Su Jingjing felt the heavy red envelope and looked at Chen Shufang helplessly, "Mom, this..."
Will my mother-in-law think I'm stealing the children's red envelopes?
"Take it, don't feel guilty."
Chen Shufang saw through her thoughts at a glance, patted her arm gently, and told her not to think too much.
Breakfast on the first day of the Lunar New Year was vegetarian, but everyone still ate with great relish.
As soon as they finished breakfast, An'an and Yuanyuan couldn't wait to go out and play with their friends.
Chen Shufang waved her hand, "I'll take care of An'an and Yuanyuan today, you two go and have fun."
Since the young couple finally had some free time, they really should go out for a walk and nurture their relationship.
Su Jingjing was about to refuse when she was interrupted by A Ting.
"Honey, let's thank Mom right away."
ah?
"But Mom wants to go out to play too, then..."
Chen Shufang waved her hand dismissively, "It's okay, I prefer being with An'an and Yuanyuan."
So Su Jingjing and her companion enjoyed a day of alone time, exploring the entire city of Huaicheng.
At night, An'an and Yuanyuan closed their eyes and went to sleep as soon as they got into bed after taking a bath.
Su Jingjing whispered to the man, "It seems the children are really tired."
After a day of playing wildly, Yuanyuan's dress was almost tattered.
"Ah Ting, there's so much money in this red envelope!"
Su Jingjing sat cross-legged on the bed and took the money out of the red envelope.
After carefully counting, I found that there was nearly five hundred yuan.
Li Hanting didn't feel comfortable with it and sat down next to her, putting his arm around her.
“Everyone except Huanhuan is very rich; this is just a drop in the ocean.”
However, from another perspective, it's clear that the Li family is very united.
The next day, they got up early in the morning because they were going to visit the wife's parents' home.
Chen Shufang looked at the pile of gifts on the ground and pondered, "Jingjing, Qianqian, come and see if there's anything missing?"
"Mom, these are..."
The two sisters-in-law looked at each other, not understanding what their mother-in-law meant by her actions.
"Aren't you going back to your parents' home today? You can't be too shabby."
As long as her daughter-in-law is a good person, she is willing to give her the best things in the world.
Su Jingjing said helplessly, "Mom, this is too much. It's not like it's the first time my sister-in-law and I have come back to our parents' home."
"That's different. It's getting late, you should hurry up and set off. We can't keep our in-laws waiting."
According to their custom, when a woman returns to her parents' home on the second day of the Lunar New Year, she is expected to have breakfast there.
Chaoyang Road West Street
Yan Ling peeked out from the kitchen and asked, "Dashan, go out and see if your sister and the others have arrived yet."
"I'll go right away."
Su Dashan placed his son in the cradle, got up, and walked towards the door.
Dong Qin fetched water to wash the dishes and noticed that her mother-in-law seemed very anxious.
"Mom, it's still early. My little sister might be on her way."
Yan Ling chuckled, "Mom is incredibly grateful to have stayed in the city, so our family can still get together."
The next second I suddenly realized that her words were a bit ambiguous.
“Xiao Qin, after the New Year, when the station isn’t so crowded, you can go back to the countryside with Da Shan to see your mother.”
"Mom, thank you."
Dong Qin was deeply shocked; she hadn't expected her mother-in-law to still be willing to let her go home.
She has been here for over a month now. Although she is happy, she still misses her parents, younger brother, and younger sister back home.
Before the Lunar New Year, she discussed it with Dashan and secretly sent fifteen yuan home, hoping to make their lives a little better.
"Why be so polite with Mom? Just tell me what's on your mind in the future. I'm not an unreasonable person."
Yan Ling's expression turned a little off towards the end of her speech.
