Siheyuan Great Craftsmen

The more Shen Yulin spoke, the more aggrieved she felt. She couldn't help sobbing and questioning.

"Yulin, alright, alright, I was wrong. But don't worry, our family is not short of money. Look, I'll hand over our family fortune to you, is that ok?"

Zhou Tian said, and jumped off the bed. He pretended to take out a box from under the bed, but actually took it out from the space. He handed it to her and said, "Here, this is our family fortune. Take a look. Four hundred yuan is nothing to us!"

Shen Yulin looked at the box in front of her. The sobbing sound gradually stopped. She stretched out her jade-like hand and took the antique box in front of her.

As the box was opened, she immediately covered her mouth with her delicate hands and looked at the contents of the box with astonishment.

After a long time, she came back to her senses, looked at Zhou Tian and asked, "Boss, is this true? Inside..."

It’s no wonder that Shen Yulin was so shocked, the things in the box were really too shocking.

There was not only a thick stack of RMB inside, but also more than a dozen large yellow croakers at the bottom of the box. The RMB alone looked to be no less than nearly 5,000, neatly placed in the box. As for the value of the large yellow croaker, she had also heard that the total amount was as much as 30,000 or 40,000.

"Well? Now you know, our family is not short of money right now, so don't feel bad about it. Also, this matter must be kept secret and cannot be told to anyone!"

Seeing Shen Yulin's surprised look, Zhou Tian smiled complacently, not caring in his heart. Perhaps in the eyes of people of this era, this amount of money can be regarded as a huge amount, but compared with his wealth in the space, it is just a drop in the ocean. If he was not afraid of scaring Shen Yulin, he could take out more yellow croaker.

"Ok!"

Shen Yulin was completely relieved now. She nodded and counted the RMB in the box first. Then she picked up the yellow croaker and looked at it. Her heart seemed to be in turmoil. After a long time, she calmed down. She put the money and the yellow croaker back in place and carefully pushed the box to her husband, saying, "Then you should hide the box. I'm worried and a little scared!"

As she spoke, a hint of embarrassment flashed across her pretty face.

Zhou Tian couldn't help but find it funny, so he pretended to put the box under the bed again and put it into the space before he got up.

After comforting Shen Yulin, the two talked for a while. Shen Yulin yawned and slowly fell asleep.

On the 23rd, sticky sugar melons; on the 24th, sweep the house; on the 25th, grind tofu; on the 26th, stew mutton; on the 27th, slaughter the rooster; on the 28th, let the dough rise; on the 29th, steam tofu buns; stay up all night on the 30th, and twist your body on the first day of the new year.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is December 3rd.

Today is New Year's Eve. Early in the morning, Zhou Tian and his second brother started posting couplets.

The family also started preparing the New Year's Eve dinner, including fried meatballs, braised pork, and stewed fish. The rich aroma of meat continued to fill the yard, making Zhou Yu and Zhou Ting, the two little greedy cats, drool.

By noon, everyone had a casual meal, looking forward to the sumptuous dinner in the evening. In the afternoon, people in the city began to set off firecrackers from time to time.

Especially the children's laughter and cheers, which perfectly set off the festive atmosphere.

After lunch, Zhou Yu and Zhou Ting also ran out to show off the firecrackers Zhou Tian bought for them.

The second brother Zhou Hao worked with Zhou Tian, ​​busying around with everyone else, with a bright smile on his face every day.

Time passed unknowingly, and in the busyness of everyone, it was night. The whole family, including Chang Wen and Chang Wu, gathered in the main room of grandpa and grandma, chatting happily, with happy smiles on everyone's face.

Especially grandparents, parents-in-law, younger brothers and sisters all wore new clothes, looking radiant and energetic.

"time to eat!"

As mother-in-law Li Yuling called out, delicious dishes were brought out from the kitchen, including chicken, duck, fish and meat.

"Grandpa, today is New Year's Eve. Do you want to say a few words?"

When all the food was served and grandma and mother-in-law were seated, Zhou Tian filled a glass of Fenjiu for grandpa and asked with a smile.

"Yes, old man, you have to say a few words today anyway!"

My father-in-law also echoed.

"Okay! Okay! Then I'll say a few words!"

The old man stood up, raised the ceramic jar, looked at the family in the room, and said with a smile: "This year is a year worth remembering for our family. Not only did the eldest grandson get married, but Yulin is also pregnant with the next generation of our Zhou family, continuing the incense of our Zhou family. She is definitely a great contributor to our family. As for Xiaohao and his family, they also performed well this year. Well, I won't say too much, I just hope that our family will get better and better and more prosperous in the future. Come on, everyone, cheers!"

"cheers!"

After Grandpa finished speaking, Zhou Tian and his group raised their ceramic jars, clinked their glasses with each other, and took a big sip happily.

The only difference from Zhou Tian was that the ceramic jars of his father-in-law, grandfather, Chang Wen and Chang Wu were filled with Fenjiu, while the jars of his mother-in-law, wife and younger brothers and sisters were filled with soda.

"Okay, sit down and eat!"

As the old man sat down, picked up his chopsticks and took the first bite, everyone started to eat as well. Everyone was very satisfied with the New Year's Eve dinner.

Even Shen Yulin ate with gusto. I don’t know if it was the effect of the spiritual spring water, but Shen Yulin did not have any of the morning sickness that ordinary people have when they are pregnant.

By the time dinner was over, it was already eleven o'clock in the evening.

Zhou Tian originally planned to send Shen Yulin to rest, but she insisted on watching the fireworks. Zhou Tian had no choice but to agree.

Soon, at twelve o'clock, everyone came to the yard in their cotton-padded clothes. In an instant, fireworks shot up into the sky, blooming into brilliant starlight in the air.

"So beautiful!"

Looking at the fireworks all over the sky, Shen Yulin leaned her head on Zhou Tian's shoulder, her beautiful eyes full of envy.

"Is it beautiful? You will be even more beautiful soon!"

Zhou Tian hugged Shen Yulin's delicate body and signaled to his second brother with his eyes. The second brother understood and soon brought out a lot of fireworks.

"Great, let's set off the fireworks!"

"Let's set off the fireworks!"

Looking at the pile of fireworks in their second brother's arms, Zhou Yu and Zhou Ting shouted excitedly and ran happily. As for Shen Yulin, there were stars in her beautiful eyes as she looked at Zhou Tian.

Soon, with the assistance of Chang Wen and Chang Wu, rows of fireworks were neatly arranged in the yard.

The second brother Zhou Hao took the cigarette handed to him by his eldest brother and carefully lit the fuse of each firework.

In an instant, with the sounds of "Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!", a row of fireworks instantly shot up into the sky and exploded in the air, like pear blossoms blooming at night, blooming with dazzling light in the air!

The entire sky is illuminated as brightly as day.

"so beautiful!"

Shen Yulin looked at the fireworks in the sky with her eyes full of obsession, and her gaze towards her husband Zhou Tian was filled with infinite love.

"Yes, it's beautiful!"

Looking up at the bright fireworks in the sky, Zhou Tian hugged his wife, exclaimed in admiration, but prayed silently in his heart.

"I hope that in the new year, my family will be safe, my grandparents will be healthy, my brothers and sisters will make progress in their studies, and my wife will have a smooth delivery!"

That night, whether it was the elderly grandparents or the young Zhou Yu and Zhou Ting, the whole family watched the fireworks in the sky without any sleepiness. It was not until one o'clock that everyone felt tired, yawned, and went back to their rooms to sleep.
