Chapter 133 Her child is protected by his parents!
It is not easy for children to live outside, so having new clothes and new shoes is enough to give themselves face. After counting the amount of money in the red envelope given by Zhou Rong, Zhou's mother used the red envelopes she made at home to make three red envelopes with a total amount of 10 yuan each and gave them to the eldest child, the second child and Nini.
The eldest boy touched the thick red envelope and knew without even looking at it that the amount of money inside was not small, definitely more than 1000 yuan.
In front of Zhou's mother, he took out 1000 yuan and returned the rest, saying seriously: "Grandma, you and grandpa have worked very hard in the village. You should keep the money in the red envelope to buy more meat and replenish your body. This is all I need."
After hearing what his brother said, Erwa came to his senses and took out 1000 yuan from the red envelope. He gave the rest to Zhou's mother and said, "Grandma, buy more meat and candy so that you and grandpa can live a long life."
Mother Zhou was so moved that tears came out. She hugged the two of them and choked up, "My dear grandchildren, you are the treasures of our family! With you, grandma can live ten more years even if she doesn't eat meat."
Zhou Rong saw this from the side and smiled helplessly. The little brat had quite a lot of tricks.
After Zhou's mother hugged the eldest and second children and kissed them for a while, Zhou Jiaguang pulled them to the door and asked in confusion: "Are you two stupid? My mother put a lot of money in the red envelope, why don't you want it? You can buy a basket of firecrackers with it!"
Da Wa pointed at Nini who was handing in the red envelope and said, "See? If we don't return it, we won't even be able to keep the 1000 yuan."
Seeing Zhou Jiaguang still looked confused, Da Wa said, “My mother has set a rule that red envelopes over 1000 yuan must be handed in in full, and only those less than or equal to 1000 yuan can be kept by oneself.
Have you read the red envelope my mother gave you? If the amount is too large, I advise you to keep a small portion and hand over the rest, otherwise you will lose every penny. "
All the red envelopes Zhou Jiaguang received in previous years were confiscated by his mother, who said that money on children is easy to lose and that the family needed to use the money to return the gifts.
This year he begged for a long time, and Zhou's mother made him do all the housework. Only after he passed the inspection, he won the right to keep the red envelope himself. However, if the amount was too large, he still had to hand it over.
Zhou Jiaguang was so scared that he quickly opened the red envelopes from his three sisters.
Fortunately, there was only 1000 yuan in it.
Zhou Jiaguang breathed a sigh of relief, hid the red envelope close to his body, and asked: "Have you brought back all the firecrackers? Let's go set off the firecrackers and let them see that the firecrackers in the city are more fun than those in the countryside."
While Dawa was chatting with Zhou Jiaguang, he had already used up all his firecrackers.
"When my mother distributed the firecrackers, she said that everyone gets one, and whoever uses them up first gets none. If you promise to help me sweep the floor for a month, I'll lend you the firecrackers I bring back."
Erwa added: "If you help clean the table for a month, I will lend you my firecrackers."
Zhou Jiaguang said angrily, "Are you two nephews? You want me to work for you just to play with firecrackers?!"
Big Baby: "If you weren't your uncle, we wouldn't let you play."
Erwa: "Yes, we can also set it off ourselves, it's so much fun!"
Zhou Jiaguang: "You two are going too far! I can only help you with your work for half a month at most. If you don't agree, I will go find Nini. She also got her share of firecrackers."
Da Wa: "Nini didn't dare to set off firecrackers, so she gave them all to me and Er Wa. Since you are our uncle, we will take a step back and accept your conditions.
Let's go talk to Auntie San, and she will call you directly when she assigns work in the future."
When Zhou Cai found out that Zhou Jiaguang was fooled into helping with the work again, she had nothing to say to that stupid brother...
The family dinner in the evening was very sumptuous, and almost all of it was meat.
Everyone ate and chatted, talking about some interesting things in the village.
Zhou Jiafu said: "Sister, you don't know how proud Dad was when he came back that day. When others asked him what he picked in the basket, Dad said, new clothes for my three daughters and New Year's goods for the family!
As soon as my father finished speaking, a group of villagers gathered around him, looking at his new clothes and new hat again and again, their eyes almost popping out of their heads with envy.
Yesterday, the first day of the new year, my parents went out to pay New Year's greetings wearing the clothes, shoes and hats you bought for them. Everyone praised them for being so blessed to have three wonderful daughters, especially the eldest daughter, who lived a good life and also helped to support her younger siblings.
Everyone praised the eldest sister for being filial and blessed, she is amazing!"
Xie Cuilian continued, "The clothes that my elder sister bought for me and Qinghong are nice and warm. The wives in the village are so jealous that they complain about how stingy their wives are and how they deliberately pick on us.
I am so lucky to marry into the Zhou family and meet relatives like you!"
Zhou Rong: "You are gentle, kind, good-tempered, hardworking and filial. It is our blessing to be able to have you as a family."
Xie Cuilian smiled shyly. Her elder sister was too good at praising people. It made her feel embarrassed.
Zhou Jiahua said: "Shunzi, Shanzi and I brought back a lot of wages, and everyone envied us. We all wanted to go to the city to work, but we couldn't find a way, so we wanted to help us, but we didn't agree.
They all envy me for having a good sister, and no one will say bad things about you anymore."
Zhou's mother: "They just have nothing to do when they are full. When their own life is not going well, they put the blame on others. Darong, if someone says something unpleasant out of jealousy, don't take it to heart."
Zhou Rong smiled and said, "It's up to them to say whatever they want. We just need to take care of ourselves. If they really dare to come and cause trouble, I'm not someone you can easily bully.
Dad, Mom, what do you think about going to the city? Come with us this time."
Zhou's mother: "In the city, even drinking water costs money. It will cost a lot for so many people to go to the city. Let's wait until the early rice is harvested. If the cooperative doesn't make money like last year, we will go to the city. Then at least we can get some food and save some money on buying food."
Zhou Rong knew that Zhou's mother couldn't get around it anytime soon and it was useless to continue arguing with her, so he decided to change his tactics.
"I have half a month's vacation. The day after tomorrow, you and I will go to the city to spend a few days together and feel the New Year atmosphere in the city."
Father Zhou: "How much will it cost? We appreciate your kindness, but you just have fun in the city. We won't go."
Zhou Rong: "Your daughter, I am not short of money now, and I can't spend much money anyway. If you don't go out and about when you are still strong, you won't even have the capital to brag to the younger generations when you are old!"
Father Zhou was moved by this and looked at Mother Zhou with a silly smile, signaling her to make the decision.
Zhou Jiaguang couldn't keep it to himself, so after a little persuasion, he told everyone about how the Ma family bullied them.
Even though the man was beaten and later died, Zhou's mother still wanted to support her children. Even though she didn't live in the city, she wanted to let the neighbors know that her children were protected by their parents!
