Chapter 1183 60 Girlfriend Control Group 47

On New Year's Eve, no one has anything to do, so the children come out to play snowball fights and run around in the snow. Smoke is rising from every household.

In the misty snow, everyone celebrated the harvest of the year, put down all work, and waited for the arrival of the new year.

The adults would brag, play cards, sit together in the evening, and eat a rich reunion dinner to celebrate the coming of the New Year.

By the first day of the New Year, almost everyone is awakened by the sound of firecrackers.

The children in the family greeted their elders one by one, and Su Yan gave them the red envelopes that he had prepared long ago.

Xiaobao also received three red envelopes, and Su Yan kept them for her.

Everyone started visiting relatives and friends to wish them a happy new year. The Zhu family members all put on new clothes and went to the homes of their second and third uncles nearby to wish them a happy new year.

When Su Yan and Zhu Bin followed the main group to Zhu Laoer's house, Xue Ming's eyes lit up when he saw the clothes of Su Yan's family.

I couldn't help but praise her, "People from the city are different. The New Year clothes of your family of three are really beautiful. I couldn't tell when you made them, but now they are so unique. I know you are a family even without you telling me."

Zhu Zhen explained for Su Yan: "Otherwise, this dress is also called parent-child dress, so it should be worn by the whole family."

Xue Ming: "Next year I will also make a set, and when I wear it out like you guys, people will know who my man is without any introduction."

Zhu Zhen: "Hahaha, that's a good feeling."

Su Yan also smiled and said, "We know who you are without any introduction. You two already look like a couple."

Xue Ming: "It must be because of my appearance. I am better looking."

Su Yan: "Pfft, that's for sure."

The cousin's children came up one by one to wish him a happy new year. Su Yan took out red envelopes and gave them to them. When they saw that there was two cents in the red envelopes, they jumped for joy.

After seeing the money in the red envelope, Xue Ming said embarrassedly: "What are you doing? Giving so much money to the children is such a waste. How can we afford to spend it?"

Xue Ming didn't know whether he should give the red envelope to Xiaobao now or go back and add some more money to it before giving it to Xiaobao.

Su Yan took the red envelope directly and said with a smile: "The red envelope is mainly about the thought. It's enough if the thought is received. Xiaobao thanks Second Aunt for the red envelope."

Later, they went to Kang Qing and the others, and Kang Qing also said that Su Yan had given them too many red envelopes, which made them feel embarrassed.

She only packed 20 cents, while others only packed a few cents. The difference was really embarrassing.

Besides, she only has one child, Xiaobao, while her sisters-in-law have at least two children each, so this is a great deal.

Su Yan didn't mind at all, and said that as long as they had a happy New Year, the red envelope was worth it.

Su Yan's generosity became famous in the village. Everyone envied the Zhu family's children for being able to receive such a big red envelope.

Hu Yuwei, who was in confinement, also heard about this and felt a little uncomfortable. She gave birth to a daughter, but Su Yan didn't show any expression.

But she didn't think about the fact that when Su Yan gave birth to a child, she pretended not to know and didn't give her any gifts later.

Hu Yuwei looked at her frail daughter and became more and more disgusted with her.

It would be great if it was a son. Her position in the Zheng family would be secure and she wouldn't have to worry about her mother-in-law's mood anymore.

Zheng Cheng has hardly held the child these days, always saying that the child is too young and he dare not hold him.

But he didn't even look at her. It was obvious that he didn't like his daughter, and he made the excuse that the child was young.

It was New Year, and he gave a lot of red envelopes to Zheng's nephews, but her daughter didn't receive many. These people completely ignored her daughter's existence.

Hu Yuwei looks down on her own daughter, and she is even more dissatisfied with others looking down on her and her daughter.

She always looked out the window, hoping that someone would come to visit her. Unfortunately, as the day passed, no one came to wish her a happy new year, let alone visit her.

Su Yan carried Xiaobao around almost half of Tianshui Village, and received countless envious glances along the way.

Zhu Bin always followed the mother and daughter like a guardian angel.

When Su Yan got tired of holding his daughter, he took her over and continued holding her.

Chen Jiao and Lin Dong were also visiting people to wish them a happy new year, and met Su Yan and Zhu Bin on the way.

When she saw the clothes of Su Yan's family of three, her eyes couldn't help but flash. With such workmanship and fabric, just wearing this outfit out would be enough to make you look respectable.

Looking at her and Lin Dong's clothes, they were just ordinary cotton-padded jackets without any special features, let alone the exquisite embroidery.

The clothes Su Yan made for Xiaobao and Zhu Bin were so finely embroidered that every stitch and thread showed her exquisite craftsmanship.

The way their family of three dressed was not at all rustic like country folk, but rather exuded a sense of exquisite festiveness.

Chen Jiao pretended to be generous and wanted to give Xiaobao a red envelope, and Su Yan did not refuse.

Chen Jiao praised: "Xiaobao is so cute, and you know how to dress up a child. Xiaobao is different from other children in the village."

Su Yan smiled and said, "It's not that I know how to dress a child, it's just that she's wearing festive clothes today. If she could walk, she might be crazier than the children in the village. These clothes will get dirty in less than half a day."

People around looked at Xiaobao and thought she was very cute. Just like Su Yan said, if she could walk, she would probably become like the other kids in the village and get covered in dirt after playing around for a while.

After chatting for a while, the two families parted ways.

Zhu Bin whispered: "Or, let's go home."

Su Yan glanced at him and then asked, "Are you tired?"

Zhu Bin said awkwardly: "No, I'm just afraid that they will be jealous of Xiaobao."

Su Yan smiled and said, "Jealousy will always exist. The only thing we have to do is to live our lives well and make them jealous forever."

Zhu Bin: "Well, I will work hard and make sure you guys live a good life, I won't..."

Su Yan reminded him in time: "Don't say unlucky words during the New Year."

Zhu Bin: "Well, our family will get better and better."

Later, Su Yan returned home and looked at the red envelopes Xiaobao received. Most of the people gave two cents, and some gave four cents, but they were a minority.

When I opened Chen Jiao's red envelope, there was only one cent in it.

It’s not that Su Yan looked down on her, but she at least had a formal worker at home, but she was even more stingy than the people in the village.

People give even numbers for good luck, and usually red envelopes contain even numbers instead of odd numbers.

She, on the other hand, can't even afford a penny and has absolutely no regard for local customs and practices. It would be better not to give the red envelope at all.

It would be embarrassing to tell anyone about it, and I don’t know whether it was her own idea or Lin Dong’s.

Sure enough, the next day, the news that Chen Jiao's New Year's red envelope contained only one cent spread throughout the village.

Everyone said that she was an educated youth from the city after all, and she married one of the few workers in the village, so how could she be so stingy and have the nerve to spend even a penny.

If you don't have money, just grab a handful of peanuts and sunflower seeds. If you only have one cent, you'll be thinking that everyone else is a beggar.

Lin Dong was also very angry when he learned that Chen Jiao only put one cent in the red envelope.

Especially when he learned that the red envelopes Su Yan gave to the children were at least two cents, he suddenly felt that he, a worker in a steel factory, was not as good as an apprentice who repaired cars.

Lin Dong went home with a sullen face. He finally couldn't help but ask Chen Jiao, "Is it the custom in your place to only put one cent in a red envelope?"

Chen Jiao: "What's wrong with a penny? What does a child need money for?"

Lin Dong: "You should have asked me before you packed. We pack even numbers, not odd numbers."

Chen Jiao: "How would I know there is such a custom?"

Lin Dong: "Even if you don't know about this custom, one cent is still too little."

Chen Jiao: "It's not much, one cent can buy a candy."

Lin Dong: "If you go out to pay New Year's greetings and someone only gives you one piece of candy, will you thank them?"

Chen Jiao: "It's all given to me, what can I do?"

Chen Jiao acted coquettishly, and for the first time Lin Dong was speechless towards her. He really didn't want to say anything more to her, so he walked out of the door in silence.

Chen Jiao looked aggrieved and said, "What have I done wrong? I didn't know there was such a custom."
