Farming: I dressed up as a widow and beat my parents-in-law violently
Chapter 139 New Year’s Money
Among the four people, only she had the fewest cards in her hand. After two more fives, her cards were gone, and she slapped the two cards on the table aggressively.
"Four sixes! I'll blow you up!" Lamei is a landlord, so naturally he won't let her play her cards.
Yan Xia also refused to admit defeat. "Five ten!"
"Five coppers!" Seeing Lamei following her, she smiled evilly.
She just had the last bomb left in her hand.
A total of six two!
When I saw that she had just thrown down six cards, I wanted to cheer.
However, her expression cracked in the next second.
Four plum blossoms are placed neatly on the table.
"You stinky girl, how can you be more lucky than me..."
Yan Xia's bombs have all been used, and there are only two fives left in his hand.
Lamei followed up with a pair.
There are no cards left.
She, Guihua and Xiaoji each lost 10 coins.
"I'm not convinced, give it another try!"
Yan Xia's usual pretense of maturity completely collapsed when she got to the point where she and her children seemed to be of the same age, playing very hard.
On New Year's Eve, it is necessary to stay up late.
No need to stay up all night.
After midnight, the New Year firecrackers were set off.
Then you can sleep.
That is the modern 12 o'clock.
As soon as it got dark, Yan Xia asked his sons to light the lanterns inside and outside the courtyard.
There was an oil lamp in the lantern.
Very expensive.
It's so expensive that only Yan Xia's lanterns in Baihua Village light up at night.
There is a saying here that if you want to know whether a farm family is rich, you should not look at the clothes and food of the family, but whether the lanterns will light up at night during the Chinese New Year.
Obviously, Baihua Village is full of poor people.
Yan Xia lost several games in a row and got off the card table.
I went to the village alone to wander.
It's strange to say that on a snowy night, the moonlight is clearly invisible, but it is extremely bright.
The country roads were clearly illuminated.
Some people open their doors and sit in the main room chatting, while children build snowmen and play with snow in the yard.
Others have large families.
It was very lively and the children picked up many firecrackers.
Sometimes it rang in the backyard, and sometimes it rang in the front yard.
In the snow, in the field, at the entrance of the village, at the end of the village, in the manure pit, in the pigsty, under the tree...
There was gunfire everywhere.
It’s full of New Year’s flavor, unlike the modern Chinese New Year, where no fireworks or firecrackers are set off. Apart from watching the Spring Festival Gala and eating New Year’s Eve dinner, there is no New Year’s flavor.
If I work overtime, I can’t even go home on New Year’s Eve.
Yan Xia raised the corners of her mouth unconsciously.
She works hard alone in a big city and lives a lonely existence.
Came here unexpectedly.
There are so many more relatives, this lively feeling is really wonderful and makes people happy.
The snow has stopped and the temperature is gradually dropping.
It's expected to be freezing tomorrow.
She stopped shopping and turned around and went home.
The jacket on my body is extremely warm.
It was stuffed with thick cotton, enough to withstand the severe cold.
Back home, Yan Xia took out a stack of red paper packets from the house.
When I was just having New Year's Eve dinner, I was interrupted by that naughty kid and completely forgot about it.
I only remembered it when I saw the red Spring Festival couplets at home.
"Children, give out the new year's money, one to each person. Put them under the pillows. They are not allowed to take them out until tomorrow."
Yan Xia sent a red envelope to each of her children and daughter-in-law.
There were two taels of silver in it.
The red envelope is different from the modern rectangle.
Yan Xia customized it into a square shape.
It's relatively wide and won't tear if you stuff it with silver.
Xiao Ji in the corner lowered her head silently. Her eyes were a little dim. She was sitting alone by the coal stove boiling water, looking a little lonely.
"Xiaoji, you stupid kid, what are you doing standing around, getting a red envelope?"
Yan Xia stuffed the red envelope into her hand.
His face was full of doting.
She treats everyone equally.
It’s also two taels.
"Thank you, aunt."
Xiao Ji's voice was so low that she thought only she could hear it. Since she changed her voice, she never called her aunt again.
"Thank you, you don't have to be polite to aunt, we are all a family."
Yan Xia touched the back of her head.
Xiao Ji's face turned red instantly.
"Mom, why do you still have four red envelopes in your hand?"
Lamei asked curiously.
"There are still people working the night shift at Yamaguchi. Mom goes to express condolences."
Yan Xia took the red envelope and went out again.
The entrance to the mountain was very close to her home, just around the corner, right opposite her house.
From far away, you can see the light in the security booth through the gap in the window.
There was a whole drawer of candles bought by Yan Xia in the pavilion. She had specifically told her that she must light candles at night.
You can't work in the dark.
Fortunately, these people are very obedient.
"Boom boom boom——"
"Who?"
In the pavilion, Zhao Zirong's voice sounded.
"It's me, your Aunt Yan."
"Squeak-"
Hearing Yan Xia's voice, the door inside was opened.
"Aunt Yan, it's you, why are you here? Didn't you have the New Year's Eve dinner?"
Zhao Zirong was wearing an old coat, which was patched but clean and tidy. His face was burned red by the charcoal stove in the pavilion.
Yan Xia is a good boss. She will not exploit her employees like modern capitalists.
It is said to be a pavilion, but it can actually accommodate several people. There is a double bed, a table and a bucket with a lid inside, like a small apartment.
Candles and charcoal are all in unlimited supply.
Because the pavilion is not big, the temperature rises easily. It is more than 20 degrees higher than outside, and the charcoal fire inside is very warm.
Zhao Zirong's cotton-padded jacket wasn't even buttoned up.
He probably heard her voice and put it on temporarily.
"Did you just change your shift or not?"
Yan Xia sat on the chair and asked.
"Auntie, I haven't changed yet. Brother Tietou and Brother Chonghe have already said hello to me. They had a late New Year's Eve dinner, so they came to change shifts later today."
Li Zheng's eldest grandson Bai Xiangsong quickly explained.
He is the second youngest of four.
I'm sixteen this year, and I'm getting ready to meet someone.
Because they are similar in age, they are in the same class as Zhao Zirong. The two of them can chat easily and it is not boring.
"Well, it's okay. I just wanted to ask you about your situation and wait for them."
The three of them chatted for less than half an hour when the two people who were changing shifts arrived.
"Aunt Yan, why are you here? Happy New Year~"
Qian Chonghe's temperament is similar to Jin Lu's.
He has a sweet mouth and greets Yan Xia as soon as he sees her.
On the contrary, Zhao Dali's eldest son is a bit honest and shy, similar to his father.
He is a good man who works hard.
"Happy New Year to you too. My aunt is here to give you lucky money, to reward you for guarding the gate of the mountain for my aunt. You should do the same in the coming year. As long as you behave well, you will get red envelopes next year."
She took out four red envelopes and handed them to them one by one.
Several people refused to accept them, and Yan Xia deliberately kept a straight face.
This scared them into accepting it.
There is only one or two in the red envelope.
It’s less than half the red envelope given to my own family.
But one or two is a lot.
After Yan Xia left, several people opened the red envelope and took a look.
Shocked.
"Aunt Yan is so generous. She actually gave me a whole tael of silver. I will give it to grandma when I get home later. She will definitely be very happy."
