Cheng Gu nodded and said, "I care too much about my customers. I am afraid of going back to the days of selling fruit without a fixed place to live. I am even more afraid of the days when none of us have enough to eat."

"Aunt, no, it will get better and better in the future." Cheng Qiao patted her, and the two walked down the steep slope. She said again, "Aunt, come up. I'll ride my bike to take you back faster."

Cheng Gu did not hesitate, Cheng Qiao rode her home to change clothes, and then rode her home. At this time, Cheng Qiao and Zhang Yandi's homes were all open, and everyone was busy. Since there were many people eating the New Year's Eve dinner this time, they finally decided to sit at the big table at Zhang Yandi's home.

When Weiwei and Fangfang saw Cheng Gu, they were stunned for a moment, and finally hugged her happily. Uncle also smiled when he saw her. Zhang's father called everyone in and asked them to come in and sit down. Five adults and seven children were sitting around the table. But before Cheng Gu sat down, she took out her cell phone and called Yong. She called several times but the other party didn't answer. She felt a little disappointed. Uncle called out, and Cheng Gu smiled and sat down.

Cheng Zhu and Zhang Yandi set off a big firecracker together. After the firecrackers were set off, everyone stood together, raised their glasses and said blessings.

At the dinner table, Zhang's father and uncle drank white wine, while Cheng's aunt and mother drank ginger cola with a few children. Everyone was having a great time.

When the New Year's Eve dinner was coming to an end, Zhang's father took out red envelopes and gave one to everyone, including Weiwei and Fangfang. They were a little surprised when they received the red envelopes, especially Fangfang. She refused embarrassedly, "Thank you, uncle. I am an adult and have worked for several years."

"You should be no more than two years older than Xiaodi and Qiao. In my eyes, you are all children. It is normal for adults to give red envelopes to children during the Chinese New Year." said Zhang's father.

Fangfang and Weiwei looked at Cheng Gu and saw her nod, so they took it with a smile.

After eating a few mouthfuls of food, Cheng Gu touched her purse and silently took out seven red bills. She smiled and stood up and said, "Xiao Zhang is right. We are lucky to sit together and eat New Year's dinner. I will also give a few children a small red envelope, wishing everyone academic success, smooth work and good health in the new year."

Cheng Gu gave everyone a hundred yuan, and Cheng Qiao took it with a smile. At this time, Cheng Gu, who was sitting next to Cheng Qiao, pulled her and said softly, "I didn't expect to give red envelopes at the New Year's dinner. I didn't bring any money."

Cheng Qiao thought of their family tradition of giving red envelopes on the first day of the new year. Cheng Qiao comforted her softly, "Mom, it's okay, it's the same if you give it on the first day of the new year."

The meal lasted nearly two hours. Zhang's father couldn't drink as much as his uncle, and he was a little drunk. Zhang Yandi helped him lie on the sofa in the living room, and then got up to help clean up the dishes. When everything was moved to the kitchen, Cheng's aunt and the eldest aunt were preparing to wash the dishes. Cheng Qiao pushed the two adults out and said, "You have worked hard as a family. Let's sit down and have a good chat today. As for washing the dishes, we have so many children, and each of us can wash two dishes."

So the uncle went back first. Aunt Cheng, Aunt Cheng and the eldest aunt sat in the living room warming themselves by the fire. Cheng Qiao took Xiaoyanzi and Fangfang to wash dishes in the kitchen of Cheng Qiao's house. Zhang Yandi took Cheng Zhu and Yangyang to clean their living room.

After half an hour of finishing their work, Chengzhu took a few decks of playing cards. He winked at Chengqiao, "Sister, is it okay to play cards today?"

"Of course! I've received so much New Year's money today, are you planning to lose a little to me?" Cheng Qiao rolled up his sleeves and prepared to get to work.

"Sister, it's still uncertain who will lose!" Cheng Zhu responded unyieldingly.

"Okay, you tell me what to play. You won't be afraid when I'm not around!" Cheng Qiao raised her eyebrows at her.

"It seems like there's one more person playing Landlord!" Cheng Zhu thought.

"My sister, Qiaoqiao and I will form a team of three. You can arrange the rest yourself." Weiwei said as he took a deck of playing cards and took Fangfang and Chengqiao to the master bedroom.

"Hey, I said I'd win my sister's money!" Cheng Zhu shouted in dissatisfaction. After he finished speaking, he looked at the three people, and Zhang Yandi smiled and said, "I'll be on the side to instruct Yangyang."

"Brother Xiao Di, this is feasible." Cheng Zhu's eyes were not bright, but he said with principle, "You can only use one tenth of your intelligence and wisdom, otherwise you and Xiao Yanzi will suffer too much."

"Okay." Zhang Yandi also agreed.

So the ten people were divided into three groups. The three adults gathered in the living room to chat about life, and the seven children put aside the pressure of study and work and played poker in two rooms. It was not until after eleven o'clock that Cheng Gu yawned and stood up to say goodbye with Fang Fang and Wei Wei. At this time, the aunt also left with Xiao Yan Zi and Yang Yang.

After everyone left, Cheng Zhu was in particularly good spirits today. He pulled Cheng Qiao and Zhang Yandi and said, "Sister, Xiao Di, let's play a few more games!"

"Brother, how much did you win today? Why are you so happy?" Cheng Qiao rolled his eyes at him and continued playing in the middle of the night.

Cheng Zhu pouted unhappily when talking about this, "I lost a hundred dollars and only have two dollars left."

"Then why don't you come?" Cheng Qiao said with a smile.

"I'm trying to catch up!" Chengzhu shouted, "I think my temper is coming, I will definitely win next time."

"You only have two dollars, who would want to play with you?" Cheng Qiao yawned.

"I still have the red envelope from Uncle Zhang!" Cheng Zhu said, "Don't worry, I still have a lot of pocket money, I won't default on it."

"Xiao Zhu, it's too late today. I'll play with you tomorrow night!" Zhang Yandi patted his shoulder and prepared to go back to his own home. But before he left, he smiled and said, "Auntie Wang, my dad will take you back with him tomorrow night after he sobers up! We also need to go back to Qiaozhong."

"Xiaodi, thank you so much." Cheng's mother was very happy. After all, tomorrow her aunt would go back not only to take care of two children, but also many daily necessities. It would be much more convenient if she had a car.

"Auntie Wang, it's okay, we just happened to be on our way." After saying that, Zhang Yandi nodded to everyone and went back home.

Cheng Gu prepared hot water for the two to wash up. At this time, Cheng Zhu opened the red envelope given by Zhang's father. He quickly reported to Cheng Ma, "Mom, Uncle Zhang gave me 500!"

Cheng Qiao was also a little surprised. So much? For seven children, wouldn't that be three or four thousand? She quickly took her own red envelope and counted it, and finally looked at Cheng's mother. Cheng's mother thought for a while and discussed with Cheng Qiao, "Qiao, how about I give Xiao Di a red envelope of four thousand on the first day of the new year?"

Cheng Qiao nodded. She didn't want to take advantage of their family in terms of the amount, but would Yan Di accept it? At this time, their mobile phone rang, indicating that there was a text message. They didn't care. At this time, some people began to forward New Year's greetings. But when Cheng's mother sat on the bed and saw the content of the text message, she was a little surprised and quickly handed her the phone.
