After rebirth, I was bound to the academic system

During the whole afternoon, everyone was playing Pai Gow, Landlord, Mahjong, chatting and of course, eating all kinds of snacks.

"Five o'clock in the evening"

Everyone went home because they had to prepare food to remember in the evening.

The evening meal was much more sumptuous than the lunch. There was a large table full of more than a dozen dishes, all fried, deep-fried, deep-fried, steamed and boiled.

After setting off firecrackers and closing the door, it's time for everyone to enjoy the food.

So the Chinese New Year is actually a boring thing. The whole day is all about eating. We have breakfast after paying homage to our ancestors in the morning, snacks in the middle, a main meal at noon, various small desserts in the afternoon, and a big meal in the evening. After eating, there are various snacks and fruits. I have also prepared many flavors of milk tea for everyone to add to the fun, and then have a midnight snack at night.

"Oh my god! I gain 3 pounds every holiday season. This is not an exaggeration."

Just like little pigs, they eat, play and eat without stopping, especially when there are many people around, everyone takes a bite and the food tastes so delicious.

I am really thankful now that since my cultivation has broken through to the late Nascent Soul stage, my body is absorbing spiritual energy every moment and functioning autonomously. No matter how much I eat, I won't gain weight. Otherwise, it is hard for me to imagine that if I eat too much every day, my oval face will turn into a round face.

Delicious food can bring happiness to everyone, but it also comes at a price.

Today is the same as last night. As a newly emerged gathering place, people came one after another after dinner, from three years old to 80 years old. In such a large group of people, you can always find someone to chat with. This lively scene, in another ten years or so, everyone will be suffocated by the houses and cars in this society, and even during the New Year, they will not have the same mood as now.

Since everyone is going to another small town tomorrow to watch ethnic minority folk song performances, they have to get up early in the morning, so after two o'clock in the morning tonight, everyone went home one after another, otherwise they would not be able to get up tomorrow.

Everyone is quite looking forward to such entertainment programs. After all, there are only one or two days in a year. If you want to watch it at other times, not only do you not have the time, but they won’t host it!

The next morning. Cloudy!

In the morning, we worshipped our ancestors, set off firecrackers, and had breakfast, then packed up and prepared to set off.

Along the way, the cars were driving slowly, mainly because the road was not easy to drive on. On the road, there were quite a few people who were out for fun, all with their families, men, women, young and old, and everyone's face was filled with smiles. Although they knew that the journey was long and it would take a long time to reach the destination, at this moment, the only firm belief in everyone's hearts was that there would be excitement to watch, and this effort was worth it.

Sure enough, when it comes to entertainment gossip and joining in the fun, the Chinese are always the first to arrive.

Even children who are only a few years old have this melon-eating system in their genes.

Of course, there were many people I knew along the way, but the bus was full, so I didn't let them get on. Besides, it wouldn't be nice to let only one person get on the bus when there was a large group of people out to play, so I simply didn't call anyone.

But as the car moved forward, the windows on both sides were rolled down, and every time we met familiar people along the way, we kept greeting them.

Aunt, uncle

Yao Niang, Yao Aunt

Uncle Yao, Brother Qi

……

I really admire them. We thought we were early enough in the morning, but who knew there were people who were even earlier. They really risked their lives to watch the Miao people sing folk songs. I was impressed.

"Capital Sui"

After about 40 minutes of driving, I finally saw my grandfather and his village from afar. The village was located at the foot of the mountain. Fortunately, although the road was uneven, the car could drive down.

Ten minutes later, the car stopped steadily at the door of my grandfather's house.

Hearing the car horn, my cousin who was sitting at the door eating dumplings shouted loudly: Grandpa and grandma, third aunt and uncle are here.

Hearing the shouting, everyone who was eating dumplings in the house came out at once.

As soon as we got out of the car, we saw my grandparents, and my uncle and aunt, all of them kept saying: Happy New Year to everyone, all the best, congratulations on making a fortune, and they also took out the things from the back seat of the car.

When my grandparents saw us, they smiled and said, "You guys came quite early to pay New Year's greetings. Have you had breakfast? Look, you brought these old things again."

Don't worry, mom and dad, we must have eaten this morning. It's a big deal to worship our ancestors this morning, how could we forget? Besides, these things are just a token of our thoughts, and everyone is just trying to bring good luck and happiness.

After saying that, he took the lead in delivering a portion of the things belonging to his eldest uncle, second uncle, and grandfather's family, as well as the New Year gifts, to each family.

In addition to the beef and mutton that I had given them before, as well as the seafood, fruit, meat, etc. in the space, this New Year's gift also included a soft Zhonghua cigarette, a bottle of Moutai, and a bottle of Luzhou Laojiao.

Looking at these New Year gifts, my grandparents knew our family situation and didn't say anything.

But it’s different for my uncle and his family. Before, my uncle followed my parents to learn decoration in the city. Although he has never smoked soft Zhonghua cigarettes or drunk Moutai, he did learn about them during that time. These things are very valuable. A pack of soft Zhonghua cigarettes alone costs fifty or sixty yuan, and now our family spends one on a pack, not to mention the well-known high-end liquor Moutai, which is the royal national liquor. They have heard from others that a bottle of Moutai costs at least several thousand yuan, and some even cost tens of thousands. Their little hearts are beating fast!

The gifts given to my third sister and her husband were really too expensive. All these things added up should be worth tens of thousands of yuan! Especially since my father had said that these fruits, vegetables, and meats were all things that money couldn't buy. It was not an exaggeration to say that they were out of stock.

Although they are all from the countryside and have never seen the world, their parents are becoming more and more mysterious, and what they say will definitely not be false.

Although they don't know the reason at present, they think there must be a shocking secret hidden in it.

Moreover, the things sent by their brother-in-law were not fake. The taste alone made them feel relaxed and comfortable every time they ate them. They felt a lot lighter and stronger. Even their dull brains felt much clearer. The most noticeable thing was that the children became much smarter after eating these things.

But this New Year gift is too expensive. The most important thing is how are they going to return the gift? These things add up to thousands of yuan. The main thing is that they are poor and don’t have much savings at home. They can’t just return the gifts as usual when they return the gifts!

Isn't this just a slap in the face and a complete offense to the person?

The worries in my heart are more than 3000 troubles.

But, for now, I can only accept these gifts happily and not force myself to smile. It's the New Year and it's making everyone upset. I can only ask my old father later how to solve this problem?

Anyway, he is powerless according to his own ability.

Sometimes a gift that is too heavy can overwhelm a person.

They were quite happy before. How great is it to have such a rich relative in the family? In the future, they can also benefit from him and lead them to prosperity. However, they forgot one thing: people treat each other sincerely. Every time they give gifts, they are expensive and practical. You can't get it for free, right?

But if someone gives you a gift worth 5000 yuan and you haven’t even given them a gift worth 100 yuan, then in the long run, even between relatives, there will be resentment and the two will drift further and further apart.

Now they are just looking forward to their brother-in-law taking them out to do some work after the Chinese New Year so that they can earn more money, fill the family pockets, and improve the family’s living and housing conditions.

They also want to buy a car of their own as soon as possible, especially when they see the car driven by their brother-in-law, they are really envious. Although they can't afford such an expensive car, as for the van of more than 60,000 yuan, if they work harder, maybe they can buy one in a year or two!

Which man doesn't love a car? Especially when the car is running at full speed and the steering wheel is turned with ease, the manliness is fully reflected in this moment.

……

Not to mention my eldest uncle and my youngest uncle's family, what kind of pressure did they all feel after receiving the New Year's greetings?

Everyone sat in the grandparents' house. The TV was playing the Spring Festival Gala. Everyone sat around the stove. Grandparents hadn't finished eating the dumplings they had eaten before. We were all family, so why should we be so particular? We just picked up our bowls and continued to eat the dumplings.

People came to visit one after another, and everyone was gossiping, and most of them were asking their parents what plans they had for the New Year. After all, since they bought a car and took their uncles to the city to learn about interior decoration, everyone's eyes were straight when they saw the green hundred-dollar bills. They all wanted to find an opportunity to build relationships and see if they could work with their dads.

After all, this real money is so tempting.

And as for my grandpa's family, everyone believes that with their guarantee, if you go out to work with your parents, you will definitely not be cheated or deceived, so you can rest assured.

Look, no matter whether it is an old person or a young person, the implicit compliments, the direct compliments, the flattery, the level of which is so tricky that it is hard to guard against. It feels like if you have a chicken at home, he can praise you to bits and pieces.

This is also a talent!

Time passed by and it was noon. Grandma, my eldest aunt and my youngest aunt were preparing lunch in the kitchen. After we offered to help, they pushed us out and told us to just watch TV. They didn't need our help. There were four or five people in the family to cook, so that was enough.

I was just eating sunflower seeds while chatting with my grandpa and grandma, discussing their cultivation during this period, asking them if there was anything they didn't understand and how their martial arts were going.

Especially my grandfather, he was angry as he spoke.

He and his grandmother had finally received the gift of rejuvenation and cleansing of their bones and marrow. Both of them became handsome men and beautiful women, but in order not to shock the world, they still have to maintain the face of an old man every day. Now every time they look in the mirror, they feel disgusted with themselves. They never realized that they were so ugly. Sometimes when his wife sees his old appearance, she looks at him with disgust and feels aggrieved.

Although I know that my wife looks like she is half a century old every day, people say that we are almost the same, not to mention that we have been married for decades, why is it that she is disgusted with me all of a sudden?

Yueyue, do you have any good ideas? Grandpa doesn't want to continue with this face. Grandpa thinks that his handsome face will make people feel happier. He doesn't want to have this eye-catching appearance.

"Looking at my grandpa's aggrieved look and tone, I felt amused. People always say that my grandpa is a child, but how come no one has ever found that my grandpa is so funny? In my impression, although my grandpa is not very talkative, he has been dealing with yin and yang fortune-telling for many years. In my impression, he is an unfathomable existence. I never thought that I could see another look on my grandpa's face."

"Grandpa, just bear with it for a while. It's been decades since then, so you can spend some time like this. Besides, isn't this just you? Is there anyone who can look at your past self and despise me like this?"

"After the Chinese New Year, my family is going to renovate the house. You and grandma can live there for a while and help out. If you are willing, you can live in the city. We will visit you when we have time. As for my eldest uncle and youngest uncle, we will also need their help in renovating the house. Of course, their salary will be calculated separately. Anyway, you have to pay for hiring others, so it's better to do it with your own family."

Another thing is, when my parents bring this renovation team to finish renovating my house, and then do a fine decoration, everyone's skills will be greatly improved, and it will be more convenient to take jobs outside in the future, and I will have a new house to live in. Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?

"When my grandfather heard me talking about building a new house, he asked: Don't you have a big villa in the city? And aren't you planning to move to the city in the second half of the year? Why did you suddenly think of building a new house?"

"No matter how luxurious the houses in the city are, they can't be compared with our old house! Besides, we are not without money. Wouldn't it be more comfortable to build a small villa in the countryside? Look at my old and dilapidated house. Even when you and grandma were there, there was no place to live, not to mention other relatives. Now is the most cost-effective time to build a house while the labor and materials are not too expensive."

"We discussed it with our whole family and decided to use the land next to our house to build a new house. When the time comes, we will demolish the old house and build a big wall to surround the whole house. We can also free up a large garden in front and back. We will build it like a villa in the city. I think that even if more relatives come, we will not be worried about having no place to live."

"To be honest, ever since I lived in a villa in the city and felt the benefits of having a yard, I'm increasingly dissatisfied with my old house. If it weren't for the New Year, I would have wanted to tear it down. It's really incompatible with my current status and position."

"You said that I am a billionaire, in the late Nascent Soul stage, a big boss with a system, rich, handsome, and capable, how could I allow myself to live in such an old and run-down house."

……

"The new house has a total construction area of ​​about 1000 square meters, with one floor underground and three floors above ground. I will decorate it as luxuriously and comfortably as I want. I will also plant fruit trees around the garden, build a grape trellis, and make a pavilion. Then everyone can drink tea and chat under the grape trellis, or have a barbecue. I will also dig a small fish pond in the yard to raise small goldfish, small carp, etc. I will also separate out some small plots of land to grow some vegetables, and plant more colorful flowers for decoration;"

"In our plan, this villa of ours adopts a combination of Chinese and Western styles. It is both beautiful and practical. Maybe it will become the focus of discussion among people in the surrounding area and become an Internet celebrity spot for architecture."

After all, in this era, this kind of new rural villa that combines Chinese and Western styles is really rare. I can also imagine how everyone will look when the time comes.

……

Just keep it in mind.

Grandpa, I have another good news to tell you. I have broken through to the late Nascent Soul stage and officially become a big shot in the Nascent Soul stage. I don’t need to fly with a sword, I can go thousands of miles away with just teleportation.

"What?"

"Is it because I woke up too early? I am even hallucinating," Grandpa thought silently.

"Yueyue, did Grandpa just hallucinate? I actually heard you say in my dream that you have broken through to the late Nascent Soul stage? Do you think this joke is funny?"

"Grandpa, you are not hallucinating. This is real. I have indeed become a Yuanying stage leader."

"It broke my grandfather's fantasy"

"Why is it so sudden? Wasn't your cultivation level at the late foundation building stage before? How come the leap is so big all of a sudden? You skipped the golden elixir stage and reached the Nascent Soul stage?"

Facing my grandfather's puzzled look, I said: It was just a little adventure that led to a breakthrough.

A little adventure? I'm afraid it's not just a little bit! It's a little bit, right?

What kind of adventure was this? It could have directly raised a person's cultivation from the late foundation-building stage to the Nascent Soul stage. Could it be that he had eaten some ginseng fruit? Otherwise, how could such a bizarre thing happen? Grandpa joked.

"Yes, I ate the ginseng fruit."

Grandpa, how did you guess it so quickly?
