Chapter 304 New Year's Greetings
We had pork dumplings for breakfast. The dumplings were made on New Year’s Eve and saved for the morning of New Year’s Day.
Changsheng had a big appetite and ate three full bowls of rice by himself.
Not only Changsheng loved these pure meat dumplings, but even Shen Rong ate a whole bowl of them.
After dinner, Shen Rong and Changsheng wished their grandparents a happy new year and gave each of the two elderly people a red envelope.
Before Changsheng had time to open the red envelope and take a look, the voices of Xiaozhuzi, Shitou and others were heard from outside.
"Changsheng, we are here to celebrate the New Year!"
As the voices were heard, a group of children rushed in. When they saw Grandpa Six and Grandma Six, they knelt down and kowtowed to the two old people to wish them a happy new year.
"Happy New Year, Sixth Grandpa!"
"Happy New Year, Grandpa!"
"Happy New Year, Sixth Grandma!"
"Happy New Year, Grandma!"
Seven or eight children banged their heads in front of their sixth grandpa and sixth grandma, making loud noises.
Shen Rong couldn't help but glance at Changsheng.
When she thought about Changsheng following a group of children and kowtow to the village elders just for a few snacks, she felt that Changsheng was at a great loss.
In the village, only children kowtow to the elderly when wishing a happy new year. People like Changsheng, who are old enough and have already started a family, all greet the elderly by bowing their hands. Very few people kowtow to the elderly in the village, unless they are close relatives or elders.
When Changsheng saw Shen Rong looking at him, he raised his hand and handed the red envelope he had just received to Shen Rong.
Shen Rong was stunned for a moment, and thinking that Changsheng was going to go out for a run soon, she took the red envelope and kept it for him.
"Hurry up and get up. I'll pack some snacks for you." Sixth Grandma stood up with a smile.
When the children heard what Sixth Grandma said, they couldn't wait to look up at the Eight Immortals Table inside.
There were two round winnowing baskets on the eight-immortals table, and they were filled with melon seeds, peanuts, fried peas, and oranges. The other one was filled with malt sugar wrapped in oil paper, peach cakes, osmanthus cakes and other snacks.
Not to mention melon seeds and peanuts, they are available no matter whose house you visit to wish them a happy new year, but you won’t see malt sugar, snacks, and oranges at other houses.
When seven or eight children saw so many delicious foods on the table, they couldn't even move their eyes.
Although the children were envious, no one stepped forward. They all stood there obediently, waiting for Grandma Liu to give them snacks.
Sixth Grandma gave each person a handful of peanuts and melon seeds, and everyone took a piece of candy, a snack and an orange.
When it was Changsheng's turn, Sixth Grandma gave him some as she did with the other children.
Changsheng was holding a cloth bag and smiling like those other children, with his teeth showing.
Although each person only had one piece of candy and snack, it was already very generous in the village.
The children were surprised and happy holding the candies and snacks. They thought those were just snacks displayed for people to see like other families did.
They cheered, thanked him, and ran out of the yard with Changsheng to visit other families to wish a happy new year.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, people not only pay New Year's greetings to the villagers, but also to the ancestors in the ancestral hall.
Shen Rong doesn't need to worry about these things, as the people in the clan will take care of them.
She only needed to sit in the main room with Sixth Grandma. Whenever children came to pay New Year's greetings, she would give them a handful of peanuts and melon seeds, a piece of dessert, some candy, and finally an orange.
Shen Rong's nephews and nieces also followed the Shen family members to come home to pay New Year's greetings to their aunt. Shen Rong was partial to her nephews and nieces and packed a lot of snacks. Of course, the children who came with them were not left out.
In this way, after sitting for a whole morning, the things in the round winnowing basket on the Eight Immortals table that symbolized good fortune and happiness were finally empty.
There were only three or two oranges left. These oranges were naturally brought by Shen Rong from her mother's house. It was a full basket of oranges.
I don’t know if it’s because the snacks prepared at home this year are better than those prepared by other families, but there are so many children coming to our house to pay New Year’s greetings, even the children from the Gu family came over.
Although the children from the Gu family were not related to her, they all lived in the same village. It was New Year's Day, and Shen Rong couldn't favor one over the other when they came to pay New Year's greetings, so she gave them all some snacks and candies.
In short, all the children who came to my house to pay New Year's greetings went out with grins on their faces.
Changsheng came back just before lunchtime.
As soon as he entered the door, he handed the cloth bag of snacks to Shen Rong.
"What's in here?" The cloth bag felt a little heavy in my hand.
Shen Rong opened the cloth bag and looked inside. She finally understood why so many children, whether related or not, came to her house to pay New Year's greetings.
I saw that in Changsheng's cloth bag, there were either peanuts, melon seeds, fried peas, and a lot of fried pumpkin seeds.
Shen Rong was very familiar with these four things.
When she was a child, she would go to other people's homes to pay New Year's greetings, and these were the things they would give her.
In the eyes of children, these are already good snacks. If someone saves up a bag of them, he will have to eat them secretly for a month to finish them.
As for cakes, malt sugar and other things, the villagers had to take them out and save them for their own children.
Even if it's peanuts and melon seeds, only generous people will give you a handful. Stingy people will just give you two peanuts.
It is extremely rare for the Changsheng family to give oranges, snacks, and malt sugar like this. Of course, there are also families as generous as the Shen Rong family.
That is Shen Rong’s parents’ home.
Every child in the village knew that during the Spring Festival, if they went to visit Shen Wu’s family in the west of the village to pay New Year’s greetings, they would get a big orange in addition to peanuts and melon seeds, and this happened every year.
However, today his family was even more generous. In addition to big oranges, there were also cakes and malt sugar.
Just like the snacks prepared by Changsheng's family, they were almost eaten up by the children in the village.
Changsheng followed Xiao Zhuzi and the other kids, and the first place they went to was Shen Rong's parents' home to pay New Year's greetings.
Changsheng followed a group of children to his mother-in-law and father-in-law's house early in the morning to pay New Year's greetings. After what happened last year, the Lu family was no longer surprised.
Changsheng and his family followed a group of other children to visit other people’s homes to wish them a happy new year. The children who kowtowed to them and wished them a happy new year changed one after another, but Changsheng was never absent, even after he got married.
Mrs. Lu even gave Changsheng much more snacks and maltose than other children, which made the children next to him envious.
After the children left Shen Rong's parents' home, they ate snacks while looking at Changsheng with envy.
"Changsheng, why do you have so many candies and cakes?" One of the children couldn't help but look at the snacks in Changsheng's hand and said enviously.
"Are you stupid? That's Changsheng's wife's parents' home, and they're also Changsheng's parents, so of course they give him more snacks!" Xiao Zhuzi was more sensible and pointed out the most critical point directly.
"It's so nice to have a wife!" a child said enviously.
"When can I get married? Then I'll have parents who love me, and I'll have more snacks to eat..."
"I also want to get married..."
The children looked at Changsheng with envy and talked about him in childish words.
Changsheng ignored these children, but he knew in his heart that everyone was talking about how many snacks he had. He thought about it, took out a clean handkerchief from his arms, wrapped the snacks, put them in his arms, and finally patted his chest with satisfaction.
After Changsheng gave the cloth bag to Shen Rong, he remembered that there were still some snacks in his arms that he hadn't taken out. He immediately took out the snacks and presented them to Shen Rong like a treasure.
"I ate the oranges, this is for my wife." Changsheng held the snack and looked at Shen Rong with an expression seeking praise on his face.
