Cultivating Immortals through the Ages

Chapter 129 Get rich and pick up ingots

Lu Jianguo smiled, touched Siyu's head with his hand and did not speak.

He knew that his daughter was very smart and precocious, and she would be able to do some things without teaching her.

It is natural to know more and think more. Lu Jianguo was afraid that his daughter would think too much or would hate Zhang Min, so he told her so much all at once. He hoped that his daughter could understand his painstaking efforts.

The father and daughter roasted around the brazier for a long time, until Zhang Min came and asked them to eat.

This day is New Year's Eve, and they have to prepare all the glutinous rice balls and dishes for the first day of the first lunar month, because they have the habit of not using a knife on the first day of the first lunar month.

After finishing the work, it was already close to eleven o'clock. There is no custom of keeping the year old in Lujiagou area, just set off firecrackers once before going to bed.

Lu Jianguo hurriedly asked Zhang Min to wash Siyu and get ready for bed.Go to the yard and set off the firecrackers by yourself.

The next day, Siyu was woken up by her mother before dawn, saying that she got rich early by getting up early.

Before opening his eyes, a piece of glutinous rice cake was stuffed into his mouth, scaring Siyu's drowsiness away.

She didn't brush her teeth and didn't eat much. Siyu shook her head vigorously and wanted to spit out the white glutinous rice cake in her mouth, but her mother stopped her and said, "You can't spit it out. This is a custom. You can get rich and pick up big ingots."

Dad also looked at her, nodded and said, "Get rich and pick up ingots."

"..." I'm already rich, so I don't need to get rich and pick up ingots anymore.

Under the watchful eyes of her parents, Siyu didn't dare to do anything else, so she could only swallow the piece of white cake in her mouth.The taste is really indescribable, so uncomfortable.

Finally, Siyu couldn't take it anymore, so she got up in the dark and brushed her teeth with cold water.

Although she got better after brushing her teeth, her throat was still sticky and uncomfortable, so she asked her mother to pour her a bowl of hot water, and her throat was no longer sticky after drinking it.

There is no work on the first day of the new year. I had breakfast early, put on new clothes and went out to pay New Year's greetings.

In addition to wearing new clothes, Siyu also brought a crystal hairpin sent by the capital, and a small pink printed bag on her back.

It was Siyu's first New Year's Eve in Lujiagou, did she know that the customs here are different from those at her grandparents' house?
But it doesn't matter if it's different, anyway, she just follows her parents.

The family of three first came to the uncle's house to pay New Year's greetings to their grandparents and got two red envelopes.Siyu didn't open it and put it into the backpack directly.

Then, I followed my parents to pay New Year's greetings to the elders in the village. These elders also knew that Siyu had caught the eyes of important people, and seeing her clothes again, they valued her to a higher level.

Originally, I just wanted to grab a handful of melon seeds or candies to pass away, but later they changed to giving out red envelopes.Many of them are improvised, just wrap the money with a small piece of red paper.

Therefore, after Siyu walked around the village, there were a lot of red envelopes in his backpack.

After returning home, the three brothers and sisters of the uncle's family showed envious eyes when they saw the red envelope in Siyu's bag.But none of them dared to ask her for it.

However, although I dare not come to ask her for money.

But Lu Qiang thought of a good idea to take advantage of this rich cousin.

They took their two younger sisters to the canteen at the entrance of the village to play, and they first bought a [-]-cent small cannon by themselves.

It costs five cents a box to drop a cannon, and I bought four boxes for two cents, which happens to be one box for each person.

When they were all finished falling, Lu Qiang said to Siyu: "We bought throwing cannons for you to finish, and you can also buy some for us to play with!"

Siyu looked at the two of them with a smile and said nothing, turned around and went to the canteen to buy several more boxes, which cost [-] cents.

Lu Jia originally wanted to buy other snacks, but seeing that Siyu had bought a cannon, she had no choice but to follow suit.
