Chapter 53: Happy New Year

On the first day of the New Year, Ye Lan was planning to get up and was pulled by Ye Ning. They didn't have a grandmother's house to pay New Year's greetings.

"Sister, you can't be lazy on New Year's Day." Otherwise, you will be lazy all year.

"Nonsense." Ye Ning turned over, "I will get to work after two days, so I can get up before I should get up."

Could it be that I slept late today. I can sleep in later.

"Eldest sister." Ye Lan looked at her helplessly, "Then you will go to bed again and I will cook breakfast."

Ye Lan is not a person who can lie down, letting her lie down will only make her uncomfortable.

I made breakfast and asked Lai Bed’s brother and sister to eat. Ye Ning looked at her watch and it was only after 8 o’clock. It was really early for her, and she wanted to wait a while, but her younger sister made breakfast and the younger brother got up. She doesn't seem to be very good at bedtime for her elder sister.

Oh, it's hard to be a sister.

After a while, Ye Ning quickly got dressed, only to see that Ye Lan was ready for hot water.

"Our Xiaolan is so virtuous, and I don't know which stinky man is cheaper in the future." Counting the age, Ye Lan is actually the same generation as her own mother, and the women of that generation are indeed more hard-working than their generation.

"What nonsense?" Ye Lan glared at the big sister who had been talking nonsense on the first day of the new year.

Anyway, no one came to pay a New Year's greetings. After a few of my siblings finished their meal, they all read and laughed at home. Ye Ning felt so boring and missed her mobile phone so much.

"Would you like to buy a TV?" It seems that Li Xiulan bought a 14-inch black-and-white TV at home, but it is a bit expensive, costing more than 1,200.

The siblings who were reading a book were taken aback by Ye Ning. What is buying a TV? Isn't it the kind of TV they know?

Seeing their expressions, Ye Ning suddenly smiled and said, "I'm joking with you, why are you taking it seriously?"

Ye Lan couldn't help but complain. If they nodded, the eldest sister would definitely buy it.

Ye Ning really won’t buy it for the time being. I have a lot of money on hand. I need money everywhere when I go back to do business. Maybe it’s not enough. If I can save it, I will save a little. When I make money later, I just buy a 20-inch large. Color TV, that's so beautiful!

Speaking of shops, the price of the shop I bought last year has risen again, and this year’s rent will definitely also increase. This is a hen laying golden eggs. No one will sell it. Ye Lan wants to buy one. It's going to fail.

On the morning of the second day of the second year, the three brothers and sisters arrived at the station with big bags and small bags. Today, they went back to clean the house. In the afternoon, they went to the graves of the grandfather and grandma and their father. , They went back to the city on the fourth day, and Ye Ning had to go to work on the fifth day, so time was tight.

I haven't returned to the village for several months since the last time. The village was full of joy during the Chinese New Year. Many children were playing and laughing. One of the children ran too fast and hit Yelan.

"This is the child of Aunt Lanhua's family? Be careful." Ye Lan knocked on his head, took out a candy from the bag and handed it to him. The child who came up behind saw the candy and stopped. Staring at the sugar tightly, he couldn't help swallowing.

"Don't tease them, take out the sugar quickly." Ye Ning smiled.

Half a catty of candies distributed by the unit was reserved for Xiao An, and the rest were taken back to the village to distribute to the children.

Don't look at it now in 1983, and it's just enough to have a full meal. It's hard to eat as much as you want. It is still difficult for many children in the countryside to eat this kind of candy.

The parents of many children were nearby, seeing sister Ye Ning coming back, and seeing them sharing sweets to the children, they all smiled, and they praised them sentence by sentence as if they didn't want money.

"Xiao Ning has become a city dweller, and she has become more and more dignified, just like the fairy daughter in the painting. Xiao Lan has also changed. Look at this white skin, I'll just say, a mother has skin. How can it be black? Look how white it is now."

"No. Xiao Lan is getting more and more beautiful, and Xiao An has grown taller. The food in this city is to raise people."

"In fact, there is no country in the city, and you have to spend money to eat green onions. If the family's income is not much, it is not as good as our country." Ye Lan smiled.

That being said, no one in the countryside envy their three brothers and sisters entering the city.

Not to mention other things, just Ye Ning's job, the iron job that many people dream of, if it weren't for this job, where would she have the confidence to bring her younger siblings to the city?

"Brought such a big thing? Are you coming back to visit relatives?" a mother-in-law asked.

"Yeah." Ye Ning smiled and left with his younger brothers and sisters.

Looking at the backs of the three siblings, everyone sighed. If Ye Qingshan was still alive, he would be blessed.

After not going home for a long time, a thick layer of ash accumulated, Ye Lan went to clean up the kitchen, Eucalyptus Yeu took a feather duster to sweep the ash, and Ye Ning held the quilt and put it outside to dry.

After working for a long time, the house was cleaned.

"Just eat noodles at noon?" Ye Lan washed her hands and prepared to cook.

"Xiaoning, Xiaolan, are you at home?"

Xiao An ran to open the door. It was the third uncle.

"I didn't even tell me when I came back. I only heard the second wife before I knew you were back. Go, go to my house for dinner."

"No, you see my place has been cleaned up, the fire is on, and you can eat it right away." Ye Ning quickly declined.

"You kid, what are you polite to me, Xiao Lan, quickly put out the fire and eat with me, otherwise I will be really angry." The third uncle sank.

Then the third siblings took their things to the third uncle's house for dinner. After going to the grave, they were taken to their house for dinner by the second uncle at night. As for the old house, no one was seen.

Early the next morning, Ye Ning went to her aunt's house with some things. They ate at her aunt's house at noon. Each of them was stuffed with a red envelope, and Ye Ning said she would not accept anything.

"I'm already working, so I don't even need to collect red envelopes." Ye Ningsai returned to her aunt, and gave the wrapped red envelopes to her grandson before leaving.

"Sister, give you the red envelope." Ye Yu handed the red envelope to Ye Ning.

"What are you doing for me?" Ye Ning looked at him suspiciously.

"It used to be handed over to mom, now it is handed over to you." It means to hand over to the head family.

"No, you can keep it yourself." That was when the child was young, so he would keep it when he was older.

After returning home to rest for a while, went to the old branch secretary's house, and finally went to the old house.

Seeing Old Man Ye's gloomy face, Ye Ning expected him not to be happy. That's right. They wanted to come to visit him because of filial piety, but they just wanted to tell him that in their hearts, his grandfather was not as close as the old party secretary.

"Hey, do you know that there is a grandfather? I don't know, I thought you were jumping out of the stone!" The grandmother said in a weird manner.

"I must be raised by my father and mother. I don't know if my dad jumped out of the rock!" Ye Ning said, "Okay, the year is over, then we will leave."

So, Ye Ning didn’t get up and leave right away. Before her grandmother spoke, she sarcastically said: “What, I just heard that the uncle’s children all have red envelopes, but our sisters and brothers didn’t chant it? Popped out of the rock."

"you......"

"Okay." Old man Ye planned to follow his grandmother's unspoken words, "Go into the house and pack two red packets."

Old man Ye had seen Ye Ning's sharp teeth, and he quickly asked his grandmother to send them two red packets.

The grandmother glared at them, and took out two red packets after a long time in the house.

Ye Ning raised her eyebrows, "Isn’t it an empty shell? Forget it, I’ve never taken your red envelope before, but now it’s suddenly given to us, and I still feel a little uncomfortable. Give this red envelope to my grandfather. We have the right to honor you as our granddaughter ."

Old man Ye almost didn't vomit blood out of her anger.

Yelan and Eucalyptus showed joyful expressions when they left the door. It was really cool just now.

"Sister, did you see that the old lady's face was purple just now." Eucalyptus Yeah said cheerfully.

"Say these things at home, so don't say it outside." Ye Lan glanced at his younger brother, and it was their elders if they were wrong, and they would only say that they were not educated.

"I see." Eucalyptus Yeah glanced around, seeing that there was no one else, and let out a sigh of relief.

Early in the morning of the second day, after a simple breakfast, the three began to clean up the house. In fact, it only takes two or three days to come back. It takes only one day to clean and tidy up. If it weren't for going to the grave, I really didn't want to come back.

"Sister, you can rest for a while when you are tired." Ye Lan packed up some odds and ends, took the luggage and prepared to go back to the city.

As soon as I left the hospital, I saw two uncles coming over. The second uncle brought a sack of rice and a large basket of vegetables. The third uncle took a knife of meat and a dustpan of radish.

"Second Uncle, Third Uncle, what are you doing?" Sister Ye Ning was taken aback.

"You have to buy everything in the city. These are all grown at home. They are not worth a lot of money. You can bring them to eat." The second uncle is honest, and he doesn't speak much. He is actually very good to Ye Qingshan and the others.

"It's not a valuable thing. If you bring it to the city to eat, you can save a little bit, and the future expenses will be large." San Shugong took a sip of dry cigarette, "Take it, it's your own family, don't be so stubborn. Yes, when Xiaolan and Xiaoan are out, just come and see us."

Ye Ning sincerely thanked the two uncles and accepted their hearts. The two uncles picked up things and drove them to the station. The aunt and the youngest son of the uncle's family were waiting there.

"Second uncles and third uncles, this... our junior should honor you." The aunt said ashamed looking at what they were holding.

"We are not old, we don't need you to respect, nor is it a valuable thing." Seeing Ye Qingmei's presence, the two uncles put down their things and went home.

"This is for you from my uncle." Ye Qingmei pointed to the bacon in his cousin's hands. "Uncle's mind, please keep it."

Ye Ning didn't know what to say. Originally, thinking about a pound of sugar and a pound of dried lychee was already a very good gift, but in the end they returned such a big gift.

"Don't think so much, just be careful, don't be too little." Cousin smiled.

"How come, it's too much." This meat weighs 10 kilograms, where is it missing?

The aunt gave meat too, not a knife, but a whole leg of pork, no matter how fifteen or six pounds.

"Auntie!"

"The car is coming, we will help you put things in the belly of the car. When you are in the city, don't forget to take it down." There are few people in the car today. Except for the rice and vegetables, the meat is placed next to Ye Ning. People go along.

"Sister, what can I do?" I originally came back for New Year's greetings, but I took a bunch of things back.

"It's all the wishes of the elders, just keep it, when they have something to do later, we will do our best to help them."

"That's for sure." Ye Lan and Ye Eucalyptus said warmly.

Work started on the fifth day, and Ye Ning had just left the house when she saw Sheng Jingchuan standing tall and tall at the door. ,,,
