Chapter 271: Losing Temper
Xu Qingmeng was watching the old man from the side and knew that he wanted to beat his uncle. She couldn't help but laugh. Is this really the head of the Pei family?
Now he wanted to beat his own son just for a bite of food.
After everyone had finished their meal, Zhang Hanzhe and Prefect Kang were not in a hurry to leave. Perhaps because it was the New Year, the three giants in the city were more relaxed and had more time to talk.
After the food was cleared away, a few people, Mr. Pei, Mr. Shen and Gu Yunyi were chatting in the front hall.
Xu Qingmeng first went into the house to check on the two little guys. Perhaps because they knew that today was New Year’s Eve, the two little guys were still quite energetic.
Mrs. He and Madam Pei were playing with the two little ones at the moment, and there was no room for her to intervene.
Xu Qing dreamed that the child didn't want her to take care of him, so she couldn't wait to go out for a walk.
This is her first New Year since she came to this world. I heard that the streets will be much busier today. Although it may not be as lively as the fireworks of the Lantern Festival, because people have to stay up all night, many people will come out after dinner to digest their food.
During the period, there were several children holding small fireworks and firecrackers, which made crackling sounds.
There were noises, children playing, and quite a few people gathered not far away, chatting. It was as lively as during the day.
The only difference was that there was a smell of firecrackers in the air.
Xu Qingmeng and Xinting walked out of the door and took a walk, chatting about gossip with a few aunts they knew. Then they saw Hui Niang coming out with Xiao Yuanbao. The three of them chatted about family matters on the side of the road and mentioned Zhou Yuanjia.
Xu Xinting was still a little shy, but only for a moment. After all, everyone was familiar with each other. But in this busy street, she was still a little shy.
After a while, Yun Sheng and Yun Mo were seen followed by several children from Xiao Lizi's family. In addition to the ones they knew, there was also a group of children whose family they didn't know. They invited this group of children into the Gu family's yard.
Yun Sheng's voice of showing off could be heard from a long distance away. What he was showing off were nothing more than the firecrackers and fireworks that Pei Cheng had gotten for them.
There were actually quite a lot of fireworks and firecrackers in the city, but not as many as those brought by Pei Cheng. After all, the children of the Li family were older and tougher, but they had never seen so many varieties.
Children are naturally fond of fireworks and firecrackers. When they see them, their eyes light up.
What's more, there are some new children joining, and Yun Sheng feels very proud in front of his friends.
The adults have to actively integrate into the life of the capital city, and the children naturally do the same. Because there are fun things to do, it is easier for them to integrate into the life of the children.
Half an hour later, the children were called back by their parents. Xu Qingmeng and Xinting also went back. Then they saw Yun Sheng looking unhappy with a drooping face. Although Yun Mo did not show it on his face, one could still see from his eyes that he was also unhappy at this moment.
Xu Qingmeng walked in and rubbed Yun Sheng's little head. "What's wrong? Why are you unhappy during the New Year? Children should share together, right? Uncle bought so many firecrackers, do you and Yun Mo want to play with them too?"
Xu Qingmeng heard it in front. The child was chattering and asked them to play with firecrackers together!
"No way." Yun Sheng immediately retorted after hearing this.
"Then what are you doing? It's New Year's Day, and you have to make things difficult for me, right? Do you really think that since there are so many people who pamper you, I can't teach you a lesson, right?"
He was already impatient and would not tolerate them at all.
When Yun Sheng saw his mother getting angry, he was obviously frightened and didn't dare to say a word.
Yun Mo was actually also nervous, but he still said aggrievedly: "Mom, why do they all have lucky money..."
Xu Qingmeng and Madam Pei were both stunned. Even He Shi reacted and said, "That's right. Look at my memory..."
"Of course..."
A group of children all got lucky money and said in front of the two of them that in previous years there were fewer people at home, but they got it after dinner. Now there are more people at home and more people gave lucky money, but the two of them got nothing.
Wouldn’t that be uncomfortable?
Madam Pei waved to Yun Sheng, and Yun Sheng walked towards Madam Pei aggrievedly: "Grandma..."
"Hey, it's grandma and your mother's fault, don't blame us Yun Sheng. It's New Year's Day, and mother was just worried that something might happen to you. She didn't mean to be mean to you."
He looked at her little face and couldn't help but pinch it. It was like dough, soft and elastic, and very comfortable.
"That's right, didn't mom just forget? You just need to remind her. She looked so gloomy on New Year's Day, I thought something had happened!"
Yun Sheng angrily slapped He's hand away. Is it her fault? She would like to ask for it, but she is often scolded. She finally has many people at home who pamper her, and they have become a little unruly in the past two days. How dare she take the initiative to go!
He knew that it was indeed her mistake, but she was not angry. She looked at her daughter's chubby little face and pinched it again, "Mother Hongfeng, I prepared it a long time ago, but I got busy and forgot about it. Wait, I will definitely make a big one for you two."
As soon as He said this, Yun Sheng and Yun Mo immediately smiled happily. Who would care if there was a big red envelope? It doesn’t matter whether the red envelope is given too late! Besides, my mother’s red envelopes have been given out, so shouldn’t the ones from my sister-in-law, grandfather, and uncle all be here?
However, in view of He's performance, the two still felt that it was more reliable to follow him, so they followed him happily, intending to get He's first and then ask for others'.
In fact, Xu Qingmeng and Old Madam Pei had really forgotten about it. Xu Qingmeng had no awareness of this because she was herself in her previous life.
Mrs. Pei was so excited to find her daughter that she only had her daughter in her eyes and forgot about this matter completely. Now it was really embarrassing to meet her grandson, granddaughter, and granddaughter-in-law for the first time.
There is a red envelope in Xu Qingmeng's room. The two children are relatively young, so he certainly can't give too much, but giving a few copper coins is nothing.
Xu Qingmeng thought about it and stuffed thirty copper coins into it. After all, He had just said that he would put a big red envelope in it, so this amount should be about the same as what He put in it.
When Xu Qingmeng came back, she saw that Mrs. He had finished distributing the gifts, and Mrs. Pei was distributing the gifts to the two children.
"Mom, this is too much. They are still young. How can you give them so much?" He said when she saw the bulging red envelope.
Madam Pei smiled and waved her hands, "It's okay, it's New Year, let's celebrate. Besides, as a grandmother, I've missed so many years, I should make up for those years."
