On the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month, people slaughter chickens and go to the big market.
On the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, people make rice cakes, steam buns, and paste paper on windows.
Visit the graves on the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month.
The 30th day of the twelfth lunar month, also known as New Year’s Eve, is the day when we need to stay up all night.
It is impossible for them to strictly follow every one of these traditions.
Many people don't have that condition.
So gradually, it became less important.
But it can be seen from the preparations made by Guan Susu and her family for the festival that some of these traditions are being used.
Moreover, there are differences in the New Year traditions between the north and the south, which is another matter.
As time goes by, the things that the whole country cares about most are probably New Year’s Eve and the Spring Festival the next day.
In Tang Mu's opinion, as long as it is lively, with family reunions and the festive atmosphere, it is a good year.
At present, it seems that they should be able to have a good year today.
After leaving the community, you can find that it is not just their old street community.
The entire Liuyang City is also preparing for the New Year.
There were even some scraps of paper left over from the explosions of firecrackers at the doorsteps of some houses.
At this time, sanitation workers were cleaning there.
They still know the sanitation worker.
The last time it rained, Su Su gave her a raincoat.
Tom, this 1.2-meter-long big cat, is too conspicuous.
As soon as the two of them walked down the street, they attracted a lot of attention.
The older sister also saw them and immediately smiled shyly and walked towards them.
"Happy New Year!"
Guan Susu immediately smiled and waved to her elder sister.
Tom cannot speak, but he can put his two front paws together and bow, which can be regarded as a blessing.
"Happy New Year."
The elder sister smiled, then quickly took out two red envelopes from her pocket and said, "Here, thank you for giving me the raincoat last time."
"Wow! This is the first red envelope I have ever received! Thank you, sister!"
Guan Susui was not pretentious and happily accepted the red envelopes. She even waved one of the red envelopes towards Tang Mu and said, "Tom, look, there's also your red envelope."
Seeing this, Tang Mu also jumped happily on the spot!
The sanitation worker was also relieved when she saw Sui Sui accept her red envelope.
She was afraid that others would dislike her.
Seeing Guan Susu so happy, she also felt a lot happier.
"We're going to buy firecrackers, bye sister~"
Guan Susu waved to her elder sister, and when she saw her elder sister waving back at her, she walked away.
The two of them actually didn't have much of a relationship.
We actually met only twice.
But this way of getting along is indeed relaxing.
Because Guan's mother was worried that Guan Susu wouldn't make the right purchases of cigarettes and firecrackers for her first time, she had already given Guan Susu the shopping list in advance.
After one person and one cat take a taxi and arrive at the destination, they just need to show the list on their mobile phone to the boss.
In addition to cigarettes and firecrackers, Guan Susu also bought a lot of red envelopes.
When she got the red envelope, she put two of them in it on the spot.
Around noon, the man and the cat took a taxi back.
However, Guan Susu was not in a hurry to return to the community. Instead, she walked around the streets outside the community for a few times. Only then did she see the older sister and her tricycle again.
At this time, there was a chubby little boy beside the eldest sister.
The two men were holding lunch boxes and seemed to be having lunch.
That little boy is my eldest sister's son.
Seeing this, Tang Mu looked at Guan Suisui in surprise.
Just now it was wondering why Sui Sui put two red envelopes.
It knew that the eldest sister had given red envelopes to Sui Sui and it, and Guan Sui Sui would definitely return them.
But unexpectedly, Guan Susu usually looks careless.
But so careful.
Although he had never seen the eldest sister's son, he guessed from clues that the eldest sister had a son and directly prepared two red envelopes.
The older sister also saw Tang Mu and Guan Susu, and immediately she smiled awkwardly again.
After all, she thought that her current appearance was not presentable enough.
The main reason was that my son was around and I was worried about being laughed at.
Guan Sui Sui didn't think too much about it. She just stepped forward and touched the little boy's head, and handed out two red envelopes to the mother and son: "Happy New Year!"
My eldest sister was embarrassed to accept it at first.
But looking at the bright smile on Guan Susu's face, and remembering that Susu had just accepted her red envelope very readily, she reached out to take it.
"Thank you and Happy New Year."
"Thank you sister!"
The little boy next to him was about four or five years old. Although he was eating a box lunch with his mother next to the garbage truck, there was no negative emotion on his face and he looked very happy.
The older sister beside him reached out and touched her son's head, and also smiled and said: "We are quite lucky this year. The country has introduced many public welfare policies, which have been of great help to families like us."
"We used to be looked down upon, but recently, I don't know what happened, there are more and more good people around us, and those not-so-good people are no longer seen anymore."
Perhaps because she was really feeling emotional, the eldest sister talked a lot to them.
Guan Susu doesn’t know anything, she just has a strong ability of empathy.
She clenched her little hands into fists, and seeing her elder sister happy, she became happy too.
Tang Mu next to him felt a little emotional.
From the changes in a certain period of time described by the eldest sister, it could guess that the reward for its journey through the mission world had been realized.
That’s Storybrooke’s reward.
Kind children all over the world will have a happy childhood.
I haven't noticed it before.
Now with living examples before him, Tom knew that everything he had done was truly changing the world.
Make this world a better place.
Seeing that others are living a better life because of his hard work is undoubtedly the best New Year's gift for Tom.
Tom was so happy that he was like Jerry who secretly ate the fruit. The sweet taste that only he knew would linger in his mind for a long time.
When Tang Mu and Guan Susu returned home, they found some changes in their home.
The New Year’s oranges and New Year’s Eve cakes ordered a few days ago have arrived. They have been placed in the living room by Guan’s parents, and small red lanterns have been hung up.
It looks very festive.
Guan Susu handed the cigarettes she bought to her father Guan, and ran over impatiently to see the New Year's oranges.
"Is it Shaju?!"
Guan Susu asked happily and reached out to pick it.
Guan's mother slapped Guan Suisui's hand away and said, "No, they are just for viewing. They are not delicious. Don't pick them. If you want to eat sand oranges, I have bought some."
"where?"
When Guan Susu heard that her mother had already bought tangerines, her eyes lit up.
"Don't even think about it. I hid it and will eat it tomorrow on New Year's Eve. If I take it out now, you will eat it all before tomorrow."
Guan's mother doesn't buy into Guan Susu's coquettish behavior at all.
She knows her own daughter very well.
The sand orange was placed in front of her and she could finish it quickly by taking a bite at a time.
Just like eating a snack.
"Okay." Guan Susu felt a little disappointed.
Mr. Guan squatted next to Tang Mu and took out a handful of firecrackers from Tang Mu's backpack.
Tom is very strong and sometimes goes out shopping with his family.
In order to save effort for Guan Ma and Guan Sui Sui, it would always ask to help share the work.
Over time, Tom had his own backpack.
It can hold a lot of stuff.
"Meow~"
Seeing that Guan Susu looked a little disappointed, Tang Mu took out an orange and handed it to her.
When Guan Susu saw this, she was so surprised that she hugged Tang Mu and kissed him!
Tang Mu accepted Sui Sui's kiss calmly, then quickly hid aside.
Guan Susu, unaware of the situation, broke the orange into two halves and ate half of it.
As she took a bite, juice splashed everywhere. Guan Susu's pretty face suddenly shrank into a ball, and her whole body couldn't help but tremble!
It was so sour!
This is not a sand orange at all!
"Ahahahaha!"
Tang Mu, who was hiding nearby, couldn't help but burst into laughter when he saw Guan Susu's appearance!
I was very happy when the prank was successful.
Seeing that Sui Sui wanted to eat oranges so much, Tang Mu just picked one directly from the New Year's orange.
It turns out that Guan Ma was not lying.
That orange tree is indeed just for decoration and is completely inedible.
"what happened?"
When Guan's mother heard the noise, she came out of the kitchen, wondering what her daughter and the cat were doing.
"fine."
Guan Susu has good facial expression management.
She also knew that she must have eaten the oranges on the New Year's orange tree. In order to avoid being scolded by Guan's mother, she could only pretend that nothing had happened.
Mother Guan looked at her daughter and Tang Mu suspiciously and went back to the kitchen.
She will start preparing the New Year's Eve dinner from today.
Fortunately, there were not many people at their house during the New Year's Eve, otherwise, just preparing the New Year's Eve dinner would be a very tiring job.
Guan's mother returned to the kitchen, and Sui Sui, holding on to the idea that "good things" should be shared with others, waved her hand and called Guan's father over.
"What's the matter? Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and I have to go catch a fish for us."
Dad Guan looked like he was very busy.
