Back to seven or seven kinds of fields to raise children

After the separation, the sons may not come back to celebrate the New Year together.

So this year, only the old couple, Xu Shiyan, Xu Shixiang and Xu Shiqin will spend New Year's Eve together.

Although there are few people, the New Year's program cannot be left behind.

It is still hanging lanterns and posting couplets in the morning, having reunion dinner in the afternoon, making dumplings and keeping the year old in the evening.

After eating dumplings on New Year's Eve, the bell of the new year is also ringing.

With the sound of the bell, Xu Shiyan and his wife held their children, brothers and sisters Xu Shixiang and Xu Shiqin, and everyone wished their parents New Year greetings together.

"Father, Mom, Happy Chinese New Year. I wish you both a long and healthy life and good luck."

The old couple Xu Chenghou and Zhou Guilan looked carefully and nodded repeatedly.

"Okay, okay, everything is fine, and you are all fine too. Be healthy and safe, as long as you are healthy, your parents will be fine."

The old couple can't say any gorgeous words, only a heart that loves their children.

"Come, come, bring my good grandson here, grandpa has a red envelope."

Xu Chenghou took out a red paper bag from his pocket and waved to Xu Haiyuan.

Xu Haiyuan, who is more than nine and a half months old, gets along very well with his grandfather these days.

Seeing grandpa beckoning, he twisted his body, trying to break free from his mother's arms and go to find grandpa.

Su Anying couldn't hold her son, so she could only put him on the kang and let the child crawl.

Today Xu Haiyuan changed into a red satin double-breasted padded jacket and black trousers. Xu Shiqin also specially made a melon cap made of the same material as the padded jacket.

Xu Haiyuan was originally white and chubby, wearing this suit, he was more festive and beautiful than the dolls in the New Year pictures.

Taking Xu Chenghou very seriously, he hugged his grandson and kissed him several times.

"Come on, this is a red envelope from grandpa. It's a pocket money. Take it and don't lose it."

Xu Chenghou stuffed the red envelope into his grandson's hand, and kissed his little fleshy hand.

Xu Haiyuan is so young, so naturally he doesn't know what a red envelope is, but he just saw that the red color looks good, so he grabbed it in his hand and refused to let go, and no one would give it to him.

On the other side, Zhou Guilan quickly took out a red envelope and handed it to her grandson.

The little clever ghost crawled to grandma's side, raised his head, and kissed grandma. Zhou Guilan was so happy that the wrinkles on his face deepened a lot.

In previous years, the old couple gave lucky money to their grandchildren, not much, [-] cents each.

So Xu Shiyan didn't care, and let his son crawl all over the kang with the red envelope in his hand.

In the past, kang mats were laid at home.

The kang mat was woven with reeds, with patterns on it, and it also rubbed clothes, and if you were not careful, it would prick your hands.

A few days ago, Xu Shiyan approached Guo Shouye and asked for a lot of fiberboards.

Paint the front and spread it on the kang, and paste the seam in the middle with cloth strips.

This thing is slippery and slippery, much better than the mats on the kang, it is not afraid of damaging Xu Haiyuan's pants, and is not afraid of pricking his tender little hands.

Xu Haiyuan, on the other hand, is still a little uncomfortable, the kang is too slippery, it doesn't take much effort for him to get up, and he always slips, which is very interesting.

On New Year's Eve, the family has nothing to do, they can only eat melon seeds and drink tea and chat.

In the end they were both sleepy, so Xu Shiyan and his wife simply carried their son back to Westinghouse to sleep.

Chapter 177 Change

Xu Haiyuan took a nap in the evening, and now he is sleepy.

Even so, he still held the two red envelopes tightly and refused to let go.

Su Anying took off her son's clothes, put a urinal on it, and managed to pull out the red envelope while her son was asleep.

As a result, I opened it and saw that there were ten yuan in each of the two red envelopes. "Shiyan, look, our father and mother gave it to the child."

Xu Shiyan was shocked when he saw it, and hurried to the east room with the red envelope.

"Father, Mom, did you make a mistake, why did you give Yuanyuan so much money?"

A kid with ten dollars in a red envelope?Are you crazy?

Su Anying was a new wife last year, and she only got two yuan. How could she be so spoiled with children?

Xu Chenghou seemed to have expected his son to come back to look for him, so he was not surprised at all, and just rolled his eyes at his son.

"Grandpa gave to grandson, how much money do you still care about?

Why, when will I have to get your consent to do something? "

This is what the old couple had discussed a long time ago. They felt that they lived with the third child this winter, and the food and drink were all for the third child, and the third child even bought clothes for the new year.

The old couple were not satisfied, so they wanted to use the name of giving their children lucky money to make sense.

Xu Shiyan somewhat understood what his parents were thinking, but this was too much.

Xu Shiqin's monthly salary is only 20 yuan, so giving [-] yuan to a nine-and-a-half-month-old baby is also a loss for the old man and the old lady?

"Father, mother, we are a family, so you don't need to see each other like this.

You two should keep this money, you will have to build a house after this year. "Xu Shiyan reached out and handed the money to Zhou Guilan.

"Third, do you look down on your father?

Even if your father is incapable, it's not like he can't even get 20 yuan, right? "

Xu Chenghou got angry and raised his voice.

"Let me tell you, it's for the children, you keep it, and you're not allowed to move it.

Do you think I gave you flowers?You are so beautiful. "

Xu Shiyan was so choked by his own father, and he didn't dare to confront his father after Chinese New Year, what can he do?

"San'er, this is what our grandparents gave to our grandson, it's more or less our wish, so don't worry about it.

What your father said is right, you are responsible for helping to keep it, and when the child grows up, you can spend it as you like. "

On the other side, it was rare for Zhou Guilan to stand on the same front as her husband, helping her husband persuade her son.

In the end, Xu Shiyan still couldn't beat his parents, so he had to accept the red envelope and go back to Westinghouse, asking his wife to save the money for his son.

After New Year's Eve, when you open your eyes again, it will be New Year's Day.

I made a lot of dumplings last night, so I specially left a curtain uncooked and put them outside to freeze.

Boil the water in the morning and cook the frozen dumplings. After the whole family has finished eating the dumplings, people who pay New Year's greetings will come to the door before they finish packing.

This side of Donggang is not like a big house with just a few households. Here, there are more than 300 households in the second brigade of Guangxi, and there are also a large brigade and a third brigade.

Although Xu Shiyan has only been in Donggang Commune for a year, he gets along well with many people.

On this day, many people came in and out of the house, and they all came to pay New Year's greetings to Xu Chenghou and his wife.

Xu Shiyan also found an opportunity to visit the homes of Yu Shouguang and other brigade cadres, as well as Guo Shouye, Han Wenzhong and others, to pay New Year's greetings.

Anyway, one family sat for a while, and the other family chatted, and the day passed like this.

The second day of the first lunar month is the day when the Xu family brothers reunite.

Xu Chenghou had already said that after the separation, no matter where he was, he had to come back on the second day of the first lunar month.

Xu Shixian and Xu Shian are both in Songjianghe, so they are close to each other, and they arrived early with their wives and children.

On the contrary, Xu Shide lived a little far away from Daying, so at least he caught up with a Yanling train, and the couple rushed over in the morning with their son in their arms.

A big family gathered here at Xu Shiyan.

During the Chinese New Year, Xu Chenghou naturally wouldn't argue with his sons anymore, so his attitude was okay.

Especially when he saw his grandchildren, the old man was immediately overjoyed, and quickly took out a stack of red envelopes, giving each child [-] cents.

Seeing that the father didn't mean to be angry, Xu Shixian and the others were also relieved, and sat down to chat with their parents and brothers.

"Yo, third child, your house even has a radio?

Sewing machines, radios, bicycles, plus the watch on your wrist, three times and one sound let you get it all together, it's really doable. "

When Xu Shi'an saw the radio on the box, his eyes widened. How could it be possible to say that he wasn't envious?

"Third son, if you want to make money in the future, remember to call your brother. You think my two sons should make more money, don't they?"

Xu Shi'an moved closer to his younger brother and said with a smile.

Xu Shi'an and Xu Shixian both moved to Songjianghe and settled down in the food team.

This vegetable team is actually the family team of Forestry Bureau employees, who grow vegetables and sell them to Forestry Bureau employees.

Every spring when I start working, the team will lend me one dollar for one day’s work, and the team will settle the wages after all the harvest is sold in autumn.

In winter, there is basically nothing to do, so I can only idle.

It was winter when Xu Shian and Xu Shixian moved here. They didn't work in the vegetable team in summer, so naturally they didn't have their wages.

These days, they are all living on the wages of Xue Xiulin and Wei Mingrong.

But there are four or five people in both families, so what do you do with that little salary?

It was also thanks to some rations and money allocated when I moved out of the big house, not much, and with the little savings I had saved before, I could hold on for a while at least.

Xu Shiyan looked at the two elder brothers beside him, feeling a little complicated, with a little worry hidden in his joy.

Because of his rebirth, the fate trajectory of the two brothers is also different from the previous life.

Originally, the eldest brother Xu Shixian should have settled in Donggang Commune in the spring of [-].

Xu Shixian moved from a big house to Donggang. He has no foundation, and he just does some hard work.

In winter, the commune participated in the harvesting, and Xu Shixian went up the mountain to carry the logs.

Anyone who has ever lifted a log knows that four people must lift a large log in unison, chanting and working together.

One day when lifting the wood, Xu Shixian was on the front bar, and the big guy was chanting to lift it up, but the back bar staggered.

It doesn't matter this time, Xu Shixian's spine was injured, and after the injury healed, he couldn't straighten up.

Fortunately, it was a new injury, and he had been wearing a steel vest for two years, and it was corrected in a daze.

But because of this, Xu Shixian couldn't do any more vigorous work.

Fortunately, after the winter of [-], the policy was changed, and it was allowed to withdraw from the company to work alone, and it was allowed to open photo studios, restaurants, barber shops and other individual businesses.

Xu Shixian knew how to fiddle with cameras, so he opened a photo studio, and he could make fools of himself anyway.

Xu Shixian and his wife both had their own brains. They moved from Donggang to Songjianghe, bought a vacant lot and built a house by themselves, and then sold it after two years of construction.

Later, the couple partnered with others to run the ginseng business. They bought red goods from here and sold them in the south.

When it was the most prosperous, it was shipped to the south in wagons, and the money was carried back in suitcases.

It's a pity that in [-] and [-], the market for ginseng plummeted, Hong Kong companies stopped accepting the goods, and the sale of ginseng had to be suspended.

After that, Xu Shixian could only do some small business.

With the family wealth saved before, and after getting old, he applied for family worker retirement, and his life is quite comfortable, much better than Xu Shiyan.

Chapter 178

In this life, due to the influence of Xu Shiyan's relocation and the fact that Hu Liancheng made too much noise, Xu Shixian moved out of the big house ahead of schedule, and then settled in the Evergreen Vegetable Team.

Thinking about it, he probably won't be carrying logs up the mountain like in his previous life.

Xu Shiyan reminded himself in his heart, remember to pay more attention to the boss this winter.

But don't lift the wood, so you can avoid the disaster in your previous life.

Regardless of how the brothers get along, Xu Shiyan doesn't want his elder brother to suffer again, and it's best to avoid getting hurt.

"Second brother, how do you feel about your stomach now? Do you have any stomach pain or discomfort?"

Xu Shiyan was more concerned about his second brother's stomach than his elder brother's injury. After all, it was enough to avoid accidents, but there were too many unknowns about diseases.

"Stomach? I don't feel much. Anyway, I ate the pork belly you made, and it was Ganoderma lucidum. I think the food tastes better than before, and my appetite is better."

Xu Shian shook his head, he didn't feel anything before.
