Zhao Yueling was awakened by the noise of the two people. She rubbed her eyes and walked out, looking at the two people with some confusion, "Sister, Ruirui, what are you doing? Why is Ruirui smiling so happily?"
"Sister, look, Ruirui has a big red envelope!" Zhao Tianrui looked back and his eyes lit up when he saw her. He ran to her holding the red envelope and showed off.
What a childish mind.
"Red envelope? Where did it come from?" Zhao Yueling looked at Jian Shu with some hesitation. "Did Sister Shu give it to me?"
Jian Shu shook his head and was about to speak when the excited Zhao Tianrui spoke first, "No, Ruirui found it on the bed, right under the pillow."
"It should be the New Year's money given by my uncle and aunt. We were not awake when they got up, so they stuffed it under the pillow." Jianshu guessed.
It's not difficult to guess. There are only a few people in the family. If it wasn't given by her, it couldn't be him since Gu Mingjing was drunk and still not awake. The only ones left were Zhao Mingze and Meng Ying.
But in previous years, the red envelopes were given on New Year's Eve, but this year they changed the time. Also, everyone was drunk, so how could they give red envelopes?
"There should be some under our pillows too. Let's go and take a look." Jian Shu patted Zhao Yueling on the back and said.
"I'll go and see! I'll go and see!" Zhao Tianrui was the most proactive in this kind of thing, always rushing to the front.
Jianshu and Zhao Yueling looked at each other, and shook their heads in amusement and helplessness.
"Let's go."
When they returned to their room, Zhao Tianrui had already found the two red envelopes under the pillow. However, he didn't open them. He lay on the bed and stared at the door.
When he saw the two of them, he instantly became lively, "Sister, come and open the red envelope!"
As he spoke, he ran over impatiently, holding Jianshu in one hand and Zhao Yueling in the other, and walked inside.
"Okay, okay, let go, we are here now." Jianshu said helplessly.
Zhao Tianrui didn't listen and pulled the two of them all the way to the bed before letting go.
"Sister Shushu, this is yours, and this is my sister's." Zhao Tianrui handed the red envelopes to the two of them respectively.
Then a pair of eyes blinked and stared, eager to see the two people open the red envelopes.
Jianshu and Zhao Yueling were very calm. They knew how much money was inside without having to guess.
Under Zhao Tianrui's gaze, the two opened the red envelopes, and as expected, there were two big unity.
They receive the same amount of New Year’s money every year.
"Wow - what a lot of money!" Zhao Tianrui couldn't help but exclaimed when he saw the two big unity notes again.
"Okay, keep the money. Didn't you promise to treat us to two bottles of soda? If the money is lost, we won't be able to drink soda." Seeing that Zhao Tianrui was holding the two Great Unity notes in his hand, Jianshu patted his head.
"I know!" Zhao Tianrui agreed, and then ran towards the room.
He must hide this year's New Year's money well and must not let his parents cheat him out of it.
Where should I hide?
Zhao Tianrui ran to hide the small treasury, but Zhao Yueling did not move.
Since she was ten years old, her parents have never taken her money, and the small treasury is very generous.
"Are you hungry? Breakfast is ready. Go wash up and get ready for dinner." Jian Shu turned to look at her.
"Okay, I'll go right away." Zhao Yueling put the money into a red envelope and put it in the box, then tied her hair and went to wash up.
After Jianshu served three bowls of dumplings and took out the hot dishes from the pot, Zhao Yueling also came out holding Zhao Tianrui's hand.
"Come on, sit down and eat quickly, the dumplings will get cold soon."
Put two bowls of dumplings in front of them, "Eat first, and add more if you don't have enough. There's more in the pot."
"Sister, please sit down and eat with us."
"Okay, right away." Jian Shu responded and went into the kitchen to cut three salted duck eggs.
The three of them sat at the dining table to eat. Zhao Tianrui buried his head in eating dumplings, one bite after another, with a very good appetite.
Suddenly she thought of something and looked around, "Sister Shushu, where is Brother Gu? Why can't I see Brother Gu?"
"What? You just realized now that your brother Gu is not here?" Jian Shu said with a smile.
This kid is really a money-grubber. He likes to pester his brother Gu all the time and is reluctant to leave him every time. But as soon as he sees the red envelope, he forgets about him.
"Hmm!" Zhao Tianrui didn't understand the subtext of Jianshu at all, so he answered according to the literal meaning.
Seeing him like this, Jianshu was too lazy to say anything else. The child was simply unable to understand.
"Your brother Gu is still sleeping."
"Brother Gu is a big lazy pig. He is still sleeping in. How shameful!" Zhao Tianrui chuckled and reached out to scratch his face with his index finger.
"Who is the lazy pig?" A low voice sounded from behind.
Zhao Tianrui continued, "Brother Gu is a lazy pig!"
Jian Shu couldn't bear to look at it and covered her face. Ruirui, take good care of yourself. I can't save you. Zhao Yueling couldn't help but lower her head and pretend to eat seriously.
"Sister, what are you doing...ah ah——" Zhao Tianrui looked at the two people's actions curiously. Just as he was about to ask, he was halfway through his words when he flew up in the next second.
The sudden attack scared Zhao Tianrui so much that he screamed.
At the same time, a familiar voice rang in his ears, "Well, kid, you're secretly plotting against me while I'm away, aren't you? I think your little butt is itchy. Tell me, who's the lazy pig?"
Gu Mingjing picked up Zhao Tianrui from the chair, held him in his arms with his left hand, and slapped his butt with his right hand. He controlled the strength just right, not too hard to cause injury, but not too light to seem like a joke.
"Ahhhh—Brother Gu, let me go!" Feeling the pain on his butt, Zhao Tianrui struggled desperately.
But the arms around his waist were like iron chains, holding him tightly, and he couldn't break free at all.
Gu Mingjing's hands kept moving. "You want me to let you go? Fine, then let me ask you, who is the lazy pig?"
"Brother Gu is a lazy pig!" Children are always stubborn and will not change their minds easily once they have made up their minds about the facts.
"Oh?" Gu Mingjing had a half-smile on his face, and then hit his butt a few more times.
"Pa pa pa"
"Wow - sister, save me!" Zhao Tianrui howled at the top of his lungs.
Zhao Yueling and Jianshu were eating their meals earnestly, seemingly not having heard anything. They even started discussing breakfast in a serious tone.
"Well, this is delicious, sister, you try it."
"Really? Then let me try it. Yeah, it's really good!"
"This is also delicious, Lingling, you try it."
"tasty!"
As for the younger brother who is being beaten over there?
Just hit him, Gu Mingjing/Second Brother Gu knows his limits anyway, he’s just joking with him.
Seeing that the reinforcements were not coming, Zhao Tianrui finally compromised, "Wow - Brother Gu is not the lazy pig, Ruirui is the lazy pig!" Wow, Ruirui lied, Ruirui is not a good boy anymore.
I feel so sad.
