Time flies, and it’s almost the morning of New Year’s Day.

The custom in my hometown is that we have to get up early on the first day of the New Year and not sleep in, otherwise we will be lazy all year round.

You also need to bring firewood from outside into your own yard, so that you will be prosperous throughout the year.

For breakfast, people usually have glutinous rice balls or dumplings.

And there will be red envelopes, hehe.

The nights in winter last a long time. In summer, it would be light at five o'clock, but in winter it would still be dark even at seven o'clock.

But even though it was only around six o'clock this morning, the adults in the family were all up. In order to make a fortune in the coming year, my parents and my brother and sister-in-law dragged back the firewood they had chopped long ago from the mountain early in the morning. Each piece of firewood was thicker than the last.

It seems that the desire to get rich in the coming year is very strong.

Only Wang Li and Lele were indifferent and were still sleeping soundly.

There is no way, we have to stay up on New Year’s Eve, and it is really too late.

There is no need to stay up so late. By then, the Spring Festival Gala of the past year will be particularly interesting. If you miss it, next year's Spring Festival Gala may not be as interesting.

So watch it while it's good.

Wang Li and Lele were the ones who stayed up the latest, so it was particularly difficult for them to get up the next morning.

Especially in winter, when they are in the southwest, it is even more difficult to get up, and they are reluctant to leave the warm bed.

In the winter in the southwest, there is actually no other way to keep warm except to warm yourself by the fire. The most you can do is to throw an insulation bag on the bed.

There are usually no air conditioners or kangs.

They simply didn't dare to imagine how happy it would be to have a kang at home, after all, they had never seen one.

Fortunately, Wang Li is in good health and can usually sleep warmly in her own bed.

It would be difficult for Chen Qiong alone. She had slept with her mother before, and her feet were cold in the middle of the night.

I don't know how she survived the winter.

"Riva, get up. Your sister-in-law and your brother have already brought back the firewood and prepared breakfast. Hurry up and get up. We still have to go to worship Buddha."

Chen Qiong took an egg of moderate temperature and rolled it across Wang Li's face.

But the force was too small, and Wang Li, who was sleeping soundly, couldn't wake up at all.

Chen Qiong looked at her daughter who was sleeping soundly in the bed and thought: If it weren't for the fact that you can't scold children on New Year's Day, she would have been unable to hold back.

It seems that this custom saved Wang Li's life!

It seemed that the only option was to resort to the ultimate measure. Chen Qiong placed his cold hands on Wang Li's body.

With a start, haha, she woke up.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw her mother's face right in front of her. It was still very scary, and Wang Li's mind became clear in an instant.

"Hurry up and get up! I'm going to call Lele."

Chen Qiong pulled her hand away only after she saw her daughter was awake. By the way, her daughter's bed was really warm.

After waking up, Wang Li immediately started to get dressed, and her movements were very efficient.

There is no way, you have to put on clothes quickly in winter, otherwise the heat in your body will soon disappear.

I put the clothes I want to wear under my quilt the night before so that they won’t be cold when I wear them in the morning.

After getting dressed, I went to the third floor to wash my face and brush my teeth. Lele was also getting up at this time.

Because winter clothes are so thick, Lele needs adults’ help to dress himself in winter, otherwise it will take him half a day.

It’s good to be young. After washing up, you can just apply some baby cream and go out.

If the winter wind wasn’t so dry and cold that I was afraid my face would get frozen without the protection of oil, I wouldn’t even need to use baby cream.

Young people have good skin.

Suddenly, Wang Li seemed to have thought of something and hurried back to the bedroom from the third floor.

Rummaging under the pillow.

Hehe, this is of course the red envelope for New Year’s Day!

Normally it would be stuffed under her pillow. If not, it would be given to her in person during breakfast.

It seems that this year's red envelopes are under the pillow, four red envelopes, not one less.

Each red envelope looks bulging. Does that mean everyone has become rich?

Seeing that there was no one on the second floor, Wang Li immediately started opening the red envelopes.

Hehe, everyone received the same gift, which is 666. It seems that everyone really wants to be safe and sound.

She put all the red envelopes away, and then took out the small red envelopes she had prepared from the drawer in the desk.

This was prepared for Lele a long time ago.

There was no money in it either, but a ticket for a wish to be fulfilled.

In fact, everyone in the family said that since she was not working, she should not give Lele a red envelope, but Lele was her only nephew. Although she would not give him money, she had to prepare a unique one so that her aunt would have the highest status.

Only someone as childish as Wang Li would want to occupy a place in a child's heart.

She quietly walked into Lele's room and lifted his pillow.

Huh! How come there are four brick-sized red envelopes under Lele's pillow?

Didn’t you say that Lele has a lot of pocket money so we should give him less? Why is the thickness so important?

Wang Li was really curious, so she took a sneak peek.

After watching it, I couldn’t help but sigh that adults really know how to have fun.

Lele’s red envelopes are all one-yuan notes for every one hundred yuan, so they are extra thick.

This is fine, since Lele is just an elementary school student and only gets a few dollars of pocket money each time.

This time, the New Year's money is 400 yuan each, and he estimates that it will last him a long time.

She stuffed her red envelope under Lele's pillow and went downstairs to have breakfast.

There were only two bowls on the coffee table in front of the sofa, one bowl of dumplings and the other bowl of glutinous rice balls.

Of course, the dumplings are Wang Li’s and the glutinous rice balls are Lele’s.

She doesn't like sweet things very much, especially glutinous rice. She can't eat it in the morning.

So naturally the dumplings were hers.

This morning I had leek and pork dumplings, dipped in sesame oil and vinegar, and they were so delicious.

A big bowl of twelve dumplings, all gone in a few minutes. After the meal, have a bowl of dumpling soup, the original soup will digest the original food, so comfortable!

She eats very fast, which she developed from working in the cafeteria.

Although I am a commuter student, I still have to rely on the cafeteria to fill my stomach at noon.

Such a small cafeteria has to accommodate nearly three thousand students every day. You can imagine how crowded it is.

The time for eating is so short, so every high school student can develop a trick to eat a meal in a few minutes.

As soon as she finished eating, Chen Qiong came down with Lele.

Looking at Lele's fair and tender little face, for some reason, she suddenly thought of how Lele was blown up by cow dung a few days ago.

He burst out laughing.

Chen Qiong was confused by her laughter, but who was Lele? He often stayed with Wang Li, so when he saw his aunt's laughter, he knew it was definitely his aunt who was laughing at him.

Immediately, her little mouth began to pout.

Wang Li tried to hold back, but her brain was so strange that when you didn’t want to remember something, you would remember it at some point; when you didn’t want to laugh, you just couldn’t help laughing.

In order to provide Lele with a good dining environment, she immediately took the bowl to the sink and started washing it.

Then I immediately went out to find where the other three adults in the family were playing!

As soon as I walked out of the yard, I saw my brother and sister-in-law flirting with each other. This flirting scene often happened after I returned to my hometown and my sister-in-law started a shop.

It seems that opening a store can improve my shyness.

It would be nice if she could give me a little niece in a few years.

It's better not to disturb them now.

At this moment, Dad was also chatting and laughing with Uncle Hu on the slope.

Uncle Hu was my father’s good friend when he was a child, and Niangniang Shi was his wife.

I don't know what he is talking about, but he would burst into laughter from time to time.

My father, who usually doesn't even smoke, actually had a lit cigarette in his hand.

It seems that the situation is different from that of my childhood friend.

Then what are you going to do?

Then let’s go to the mountains and play for a while.

Their yard leads to the village on one side and the mountains on the other.

So it is very convenient to go up the mountain to collect firewood.

Although we already have gas stoves, our hometown still mainly uses wood stoves because the food cooked in this way is very delicious.

During the Chinese New Year, I had money and free time, and I didn't have much work, so using a wood stove was not a problem at all.
