Chapter 928: We'll Know Then

Compared with last year, the 2017 Spring Festival was even more lively.

Because there were several more people.

Moreover, Li Huiying of Han Guo appeared openly on Yue Ya Dao.

Last year, the children were still thinking of ways to get more red envelopes.

This year is different.

After returning, Lin Shiyi gathered everyone for a discussion.

Since they earned more money last year, taking money from the adults again felt a bit shameful.

You have to know that last year the mothers all stopped their work, had no wages, and used the savings from previous years.

Some not‑so‑sharp mothers and aunties lost money gambling at mahjong.

For example, Lin Qingxia's mother Xiao Guo Yiniang, Lin Donghu's mother Chen Yiniang, Lin Qiuxia's mother Wu Yiniang,

as well as Miao Miao Yiniang, Cai Wei Yiniang…

Of course, where there are losers there are winners.

The biggest winners were Liang Yiniang, Da Guo Yiniang, and An Qi Yiniang.

So, on the afternoon of New Year's Eve, after lunch, when the children were supposed to give New Year greetings and receive red envelopes,

Given that some aunties couldn't produce money, Lin Shiyi decided to do the opposite this year.

They would no longer ask the adults for red envelopes, but instead give red envelopes to the aunties.

When Yang Caiwei announced this, Lin Feng, his father Lin Xiangdong, and mother Liang Shiyun couldn't help but laugh.

Then they took back the red envelopes that had been prepared long ago.

The red envelopes prepared for the children this year were a bit fewer than last year.

The children knew that some people had lost everything, and Lin Xiangdong and Liang Shiyun of course also knew this.

Moreover, a bunch of the children have now become wealthy.

To take care of a few daughter‑in‑laws who had lost all their money, they decided to change this year's red envelope amount to an auspicious number.

Three eights.

That is, 888 yuan.

Over ten thousand yuan, the women who lost money could still produce it.

Lin Feng was about to watch Lin Chang'e's displeased, frowning expression when the program took an unexpected turn.

Lin Shiyi waved his hand grandly.

Two maids pushed a cart over.

"Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, Mom, and all the aunties, Happy New Year and good health!"

Lin Jingru spoke on behalf of everyone, first offering the blessings, then inviting the aunties to come forward to receive red envelopes.

"Each auntie has one! Aunties whose names are called, please step forward to receive a red envelope!"

After that, the first called out, "Please, Auntie Qi Yao!"

Qi Yao stood up.

Lin Jingru handed the red envelope bearing a name to Qi Yao with both hands, "Auntie, Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year!"

Qi Yao smiled and said a line.

Then she returned to her seat.

When she opened the red envelope, it was a Gold Ticket from nb Bank worth one hundred million dollars!

What a generous hand!

Qi Yao was surprised.

It seems the children scraped a lot of money from Xiao Rizi last year.

Next came Han Xiang, Yun Luan, Mei Wu, Jing Wu…

"Why don't I have one?"

After the red envelopes were handed out, Song Jiaren pouted, stood up, and said with a dissatisfied look.

Lin Jingru said, "Sorry! Big sister, you're not an auntie."

"But I represent Auntie Yang!"

Song Jiaren frowned and said.

Lin Jingru replied, "But now you are the big sister!"

"Fine! Wait for it!"

Upon hearing that, Song Jiaren clenched her teeth, said something, and grabbed her own throat.

Everyone rushed forward to stop her.

"Ya~"

Song Jiaren stuck out her tongue, rolled her eyes, and then fainted.

Han Xiang helped her up.

Soon, Yang Yuhuan opened her eyes.

"Where is this?"

Yang Yuhuan asked softly.

A hint of nervousness and shyness in her eyes.

Han Xiang gave a brief introduction of the current situation.

"So it's New Year after all!"

Yang Yuhuan said something, stood up, and scanned the hall.

Then she came before Lin Xiangdong and Liang Shiyun to bow.

Lin Xiangdong and Liang Shiyun exchanged a glance.

Not long ago, this person was still cuddling them and acting coquettishly!

Now it's like a different person, no, truly a different person.

"No need for formalities!"

Liang Shiyun said, a bit unaccustomed.

Lin Jingru giggled at this moment, ran over, and slipped a red envelope into Yang Yuhuan's hand, "Aunt Yang, Happy New Year!"

"We were just joking with big sister earlier! How could we forget Aunt Yang's red envelope!"

"Thank you! Happy, Happy New Year!"

Yang Yuhuan said with a smile.

After returning to her seat, Yang Yuhuan opened the red envelope.

Song Jiaren looked at the hundred million dollars, thinking that this time Lin Shiyi and the others were paying, and she was the one receiving the money!

Haha!

Proud, she couldn't control her expression, and a smile appeared on her face.

At that moment many people were looking at her.

For example Lin Feng, Han Xiang, and Qi Yao...

Lin Feng turned his head and exchanged a glance with Qi Yao and Han Xiang sitting on his left and right.

Qi Yao's eyes showed that she understood.

Han Xiang frowned, her eyes full of doubt.

Song Jiaren quickly recovered and restrained herself.

She didn't realize she had already given herself away.

…

After receiving the red envelopes, everyone had money.

In the afternoon, with nothing to do, they arranged to play mahjong together.

Qi Yao was not interested in playing mahjong.

The day before yesterday, Bi Yue's operation, she brought back some specimens and was studying them.

"Take a break for the New Year and put work aside!"

Lin Feng said.

Qi Yao shook her head, "Work is entertainment to me."

Lin Feng didn't persuade further.

Lin Shiyi followed Qi Yao and left the hall.

The boss left, and everyone started to disperse.

Liang Shishi and Guo Yanru kept Lin Xiangdong and Liang Shiyun company while playing mahjong.

Shi Yuniang, Bei Yiren, Mu Nian, and Chen Yu sat at one table.

…

Soon, the dozen‑plus mahjong tables in the hall were all filled with people.

There weren't enough tables, so some people sat aside watching the bustle.

Han Xiang pulled Yang Yuhuan out the door and kept walking for several hundred meters; after no one was around, she frowned and asked, "What was up with you earlier?"

"What is the sister talking about?"

Yang Yuhuan asked.

Han Xiang said, "You laughed earlier, exactly like Song Jiaren's smile; your own smile isn't like that."

Yang Yuhuan slightly frowned and said, "I—I didn't laugh, I have no idea what's going on!"

"Really don't know?"

Han Xiang asked.

Yang Yuhuan shook her head.

Han Xiang gave Yang Yuhuan a puzzled look.

Then she found an excuse, turned around, and went back.

"Hoo~"

"Almost got discovered!"

Song Jiaren and Yang Yuhuan both exhaled, patted their chests, and said.

"Next time you must control your emotions."

Yang Yuhuan reminded.

"Got it!" Song Jiaren nodded, "Now let's go back!"

Yang Yuhuan gave a "Hmm".

She still quite liked the lively atmosphere in the hall.

"By the way!"

Song Jiaren said suddenly.

The restrained Yang Yuhuan stopped and asked, "What is it?"

Song Jiaren said, "I heard Aunt Liang saying there's a costume ball tonight; shall we go have some fun?"

"What dance party?"

Yang Yuhuan didn't understand.

Song Jiaren said: "I don't know either! We'll find out when the time comes!"
