Chapter 1310: Bidding Farewell to the Old Year Amidst Explosions
Nanluoguxiang
Bidding farewell to the old year amidst the sound of firecrackers, passing the New Year with joy.
Ever since Jia Zhangshi was taken away to accept labor reform, Qin Huairu felt the air had become fresh and sweet.
During the New Year, she took the hard-earned money she had earned from Cao Weiguo and made a new set of clothes for each of the three children, bought candy and pastries, and for the first time in history, bought a string of small firecrackers. This made the three children incredibly happy.
While eating New Year's Eve dinner in the Deaf Old Lady's room, the three children recognized Yi Zhonghai and his wife as god-relatives.
Calling them "Grandpa" and "Grandma" with every mouthful made the old couple overjoyed.
The three children didn't call them that for nothing; each of them received a big red envelope.
The three families became one, sitting together to eat New Year's dinner—it could be called justified and harmonious.
After eating their fill and returning home, Qin Huairu smiled and stretched out her hand: "Where is the New Year's money Grandpa gave you? Take it out. It's enough to just warm your hands; you are still small and can't hold so much money."
Banggeng said reluctantly: "Mom, I'm already in junior high school; I've already grown up."
Qin Huairu smiled: "You've grown up? Have you started working? Have you earned money? When you earn money, then you can say that to me. Bring the New Year's money here. Mom doesn't want your money; Mom is just helping you keep it, saving it for you to take a wife or as a dowry in the future."
Banggeng hung his face and slapped the New Year's money on the table: "Boring."
Xiaodang and Huaihua handed the red envelopes to Qin Huairu with lingering reluctance; their little expressions were almost crying.
Qin Huairu rubbed Huaihua's head: "So obedient, really Mom's good daughter."
Stuffing the three red envelopes into her pocket, Qin Huairu smiled and said: "Xiaodang, Huaihua, don't forget to go to your Uncle Weiguo's house to pay New Year's greetings tomorrow morning."
Xiaodang said crisply: "Remembering."
Huaihua said in a milky voice: "I want to pay New Year's greetings to Uncle Weiguo. Uncle Weiguo gave Huaihua milk candy today; it was so sweet and delicious."
Banggeng sat on the bed: "Mom! Can I go too?"
Qin Huairu said angrily: "You stay at home honestly. You know what you were like at your Uncle Weiguo's place; do you think I don't know? Seeing that there's New Year's money, you want to go pay New Year's greetings? Why didn't you do it earlier?"
Banggeng curled his lips: "Hmph! Do you think I care! I was just saying. Let me pay New Year's greetings to Cao Weiguo? Not a chance!"
On the morning of the first day, just as the sky was beginning to brighten, Xiaodang and Huaihua ran to Cao Weiguo's house to pay New Year's greetings.
Not only did they get New Year's money, but their pockets were also filled with milk candy and melon seeds.
This made Banggeng's eyes turn red with anger, his teeth itching, and he hated Cao Weiguo again in his heart.
"Stupid Uncle! I'm paying you New Year's greetings!"
Unable to get New Year's money from Cao Weiguo, he went to find the sucker.
Banggeng found Shazhu and paid New Year's greetings in a proper manner. ===== CHAPTER 1312 =====
