The daily life of a Buddhist girl

"What is the baby's New Year's wish? Can you tell me?"

"I don't want it. Brother, your couplet is posted crookedly. Move it a little over here. Yes, it's right here. It's just right."

......

Well, originally the job of posting couplets was for the maids and housekeepers, but at Liu Yuan's request, he still took his eldest and second brothers to post some of them together. The important thing is the atmosphere. During the Chinese New Year, you have to do some of these things. That's fine. To put it bluntly, Liu Yuan is just bored, but Liu Yuan wouldn't say that.

Brother Nangong naturally agreed to his little sister's request. Everything in this family has changed since the little sister arrived, but this change is for the better.

Not far away, Nangong Ying and Li Xingyue stood aside and looked at the children.

"Sakura, after the baby's arrival, everything has changed. This home has become lively, and we hear more laughter."

"Well, yes, but Xingyue, are you talking about lemons in your tone? Why does it sound sour?"

"Just be proud of yourself. I don't know how you raised such a cute, obedient and sensible daughter. I went to my eldest sister's house a few days ago and the children there are far behind compared to babies. It’s not cute at all, and at such a young age, it feels so scheming, but it’s still comfortable to get along with the baby.”

"I don't know how they were raised. Maybe they perfectly inherited the excellent genes of me and Brother Cheng, hey~"

"Tsk, I'm going back now. I won't discuss this with you anymore. When the baby grows up, you will have to worry about it."

Nangong Ying looked at Li Xingyue's leaving figure and shook her head with a smile. We will discuss the future matters later. Now the baby just needs to grow up carefree.

Near noon, the three Liu Yuan brothers finally finished posting the couplets. While taking a break and eating, the three brothers and sisters were talking and laughing. At first glance, they looked like brothers and sisters who have a good relationship. The adults next to them all laughed at this, and the whole family The relationship is so good, this is a delicious thing, and with the baby here, the brothers should not have any objections to the family's industry in the future.

Just after dinner, Liu Yuan took Bai Hu and Ah Li back to their mother's room to take a nap. My sister-in-law Liang was not here, so she had to go to her mother. As for the eldest brother and the second brother, they were different genders, so I was a little embarrassed to say that.

Then when Liu Yuan woke up, he saw several adults playing cards on the table. Well, not only that, even the eldest and second brothers participated. After stretching, Liu Yuan slowly touched It's past.

"Baby, are you awake? Do you want some water?"

"Well, Mommy, are you playing cards?"

"Yeah, is the baby coming?"

"is it okay?"

"Of course, just if you lose, you need to complete a page of translation. Every time you lose, you need to complete a page. What you usually write does not count. Of course, if you don't want to write this, there are other options, but I think they are all babies. It can be done.”

"Uh..." After hearing this bet, Liu Yuan felt a little nervous. It seemed that he still had a bunch of babies stuck with his parents. It was all a routine. "Then... what if I win?" ?”

"If we win, each of us will give the baby a big red envelope this year~ How about it? Is the baby coming? No matter how big the red envelope is, Mommy will not take it away." Nangong Ying was tempting her daughter, Red envelopes and all that don't matter, the important thing is that my daughter can obediently agree to learn something.

Hearing her mother's words, Liu Yuan admitted that her heart was moved. This was just a matter of doing nothing. It was just homework. How difficult could homework be in elementary school?And when the time comes, he only needs to act coquettishly a little, and he feels that he can put it off for a while. However, Liu Yuan did not join in immediately, but chose to get close to everyone, saying that he would see how to play first.

"Big brother, second brother, how do you win or lose? What will you do if you lose?"

"Not much, I just lost the reading of two books." Nangong Zhe was very calm. Not only did he not resist playing this with his parents, he also looked forward to it, because if he won, the red envelope would be really big. If he lost, It's nothing more than reading some books designated by his father and learning some designated knowledge. In Nangong Zhe's opinion, this is a completely worthwhile business.

"I'm miserable. I've already lost five books. If I lose again, I'll probably be miserable next year."

"Huh? Is the book a unit? Big brother and second brother."

"The baby is very smart, do you want to come with me?"

"Okay, let's do it together then."

So Liu Yuan also joined in, and the family played the game happily together.

In this game, everyone has their own standards. If the children lose, they have to learn the knowledge obediently. If they win, they can get a big red envelope. The adults' bets have some simple conditions, and most of them are just verbal agreements. That's all, because their real purpose is to make children willing to learn.

Well, in fact, regardless of winning or losing, you can use this condition to exchange for big red envelopes. This is what Liu Yuan's mother said to herself after losing a lot. Liu Yuan was very helpless. He looked at the scoreboard and felt that he had been tricked. Is it because of my parents and others, who feel that even the eldest and second brothers are trying to trick me, do they really want me to lose?Hey~

In the end, Liu Yuan chose the big red envelope. After signing a simple agreement with Liu Yuan, Liu Yuan felt so tired that he lay in his mother's arms, "Mommy, are you trying to trick me?" Baby, I feel like I have lost a lot. Will the baby have to study every day in the future? The baby doesn’t want to say things like this, woo woo woo..."

Liu Yuan was very shameless and begged her mother for mercy, because according to the agreement, she probably had to spend her weekends studying, which was not good at all. Liu Yuan could only cry to her mother when she thought that she would no longer be able to salt fish. Chirped.

Nangong Ying was already mentally prepared for her daughter's reaction. After touching her head, she said softly: "This is the baby's loss. Do you want to default on the debt? Has the baby learned not to be trustworthy? This It’s the behavior of a bad boy.”

"Well...but...but...but...but the baby wants to have time to play, wuwuwu..." Liu Yuan also took the risk and continued to act coquettishly and joke, Liu Yuan Yuan doesn’t want to study all day, that would be too boring.

"Baby, it's not okay for you to be like this. How about this? Mommy will reduce the homework for the baby, and the baby will not be required to do homework on Sundays, but the weekly tasks must be completed well, okay? What if? If you can’t do it, don’t blame Mommy.”

After being silent for several seconds, Liu Yuan still nodded. He felt that he had tricked himself into it, but the problem shouldn't be big. No matter what his parents did, it must be for their own good. They just couldn't do it anymore. Sad~~~

Volume 288 #Chapter [-] New Year’s Eve is here

Although Liu Yuan was a little unhappy about being tricked, when he was lying in his mother's arms at night, Liu Yuan thought about it, and it seemed that he still didn't recognize the trick clearly. It could have been avoided. Man, it's Jiang Zi, Greed is what it comes down to.

This time, Liu Yuan chose to accept his fate, because his kung fu was obviously not up to the mark. What difference would a big red envelope have to him or no red envelope?Hey~

At the same time, elsewhere, Li Xingyue looked at the message from Nangong Ying and her eyes flickered. Do you want to invite her to stay up all night tomorrow? Emmmm....it is true that there is a custom of keeping vigil at the age of thirty, but are you serious?I just asked him to sleep more tomorrow, that’s all. We’ll talk about it tomorrow. A nap should be enough.

Nangong Zhe and Nangong Ye also received messages from Nangong Ying at the same time. Their reactions were similar to Li Xingyue's. If they stayed up late with the baby, it was quite good.

Liu Yuan didn't know all this. When Liu Yuan woke up for who knows how many times, he saw his eldest aunt and his younger aunt beside him as soon as he got up. This made Liu Yuan a little embarrassed, having to come to the baby like this. ?

"Auntie? Auntie? Good morning?"

"Baby, you finally woke up. It's almost noon. If your mother hadn't been stopping us, we would have spanked the baby to get him up."

"Uh... the baby is up, aunt and uncle, you can do whatever you want." Liu Yuan quickly lifted the quilt and stood up. Why did he feel something was wrong when he heard this?You're not trying to trick yourself again.

"Hey~~ Baby, my aunt and I are responsible for getting you up today, or does the baby want to do it on his own?"

Hearing this, Liu Yuan stopped, turned around and glanced at his aunt and aunt. After thinking for two seconds, Liu Yuan decisively leaned towards them. Just kidding, this baby doesn't know how to comb his hair. said the one with his own hair.

"What do you want to wear today, baby? Today is the Chinese New Year. Do you want to wear something festive?"

"Auntie, you can make your choice. The baby can do it. The same goes for auntie. You can comb your hair as long as you like. The baby can do it too." Liu Yuan is really casual in this regard. She is really Liu Yuan didn't mind how he dressed up. After all, Liu Yuan had no intention of dressing up.

"Well, elder sister, you can choose as you see fit. I'll take the baby to wash up first."

"Okay, you go ahead and I'll pick out some clothes."

After 10 minutes, Liu Yuan changed into a set of red clothes. Looking at the red ribbon that his aunt took out, the corner of Liu Yuan's mouth twitched. It was really festive, but this wardrobe really has clothes of all colors. Well, my aunt had thought of this in the first place?

"Little aunt, where are mommy and the others? Why don't you see them? Or eldest brother, second brother and the others."

"Today is thirty, and they are all busy. They have to deal with the New Year's Eve dinner, some customs, and some matters concerning the people in the family."

"Oh, auntie, the baby is hungry. Is there anything to eat?"

"Wait a while, and then we'll go eat delicious food after we're done."

"Good~"

I don’t know how long it took, but Liu Yuan looked at the very Chinese-style hairstyle in the mirror and yawned. It takes so long to do hair. It’s really not easy for girls~

At noon, Liu Yuan followed his aunt and uncle to the living room and had lunch with everyone. Seeing that there were obviously fewer maids and housekeepers, Liu Yuan thought that the Nangong family was still pretty good, and they would still have a holiday during the Chinese New Year, but he just didn’t know Do you have any red envelopes at work today?

After lunch, Liu Yuan stretched out and prepared to go back to the room to go to bed, because if he didn't sleep, he would definitely not be able to survive tonight. He was so young and couldn't drink coffee or anything to refresh himself, so he had to rely on Go to sleep.

"Baby, do you want to hand out red envelopes with big brother? As the little princess of the Nangong family, I think it would be better for the baby to do this."

Liu Yuan was about to leave when he heard his elder brother's voice.

"That's right, baby, do you want to come with us? It's just a good time to understand some of the rules of our family."

Seeing the expectant looks of his eldest and second brothers, Liu Yuan nodded. He would go to bed later and go to see what was going on.

Not long after, Liu Yuan followed his brothers to his eldest brother's room. Looking at a pile of RMB on the table, Liu Yuan paused and was a little surprised, because these RMB seemed to be a lot, an amount he had never seen before. Well, the small treasury is just a string of numbers, Liu Yuan doesn't have much idea.

"Uh... Big brother and second brother, what is this?"

"This is a red envelope, but these are not ours, but don't be sad, baby, because later there will probably be a lot of red envelopes from grandpa alone. These are all prepared to be given to those The maid and the housekeeper, do you want to dress up the baby together?"

"Does everyone have it? Brother."

"Yes, everyone has it. Those who work today will get extra red envelopes. Baby, come here. Big brother will tell you slowly."

"Oh."

With curiosity, Liu Yuan walked in front of his eldest brother, sat down slowly, and then looked at his eldest brother and second brother with an expectant expression.

After a long time, Liu Yuan has started to pack red envelopes. Apart from anything else, the feeling of loading money is quite good.

According to the eldest and second brothers, every year during the Chinese New Year, the Nangong family will give out red envelopes. This is not included in the year-end bonus. As early as a few days ago, the maids and housekeepers had already received the year-end bonus for February. , and after Liu Yuan heard about the welfare benefits of the Nangong family's maids and housekeepers, he secretly envied them. They were much better than most white-collar workers outside. No wonder these maids and housekeepers were willing to call them miss. Where is the young master?

Liu Yuan didn't know much about how the Nangong family's maids and housekeepers worked, and it wasn't something she should be concerned about. When she was putting out red envelopes, Liu Yuan asked if she could put in more, and then she heard The elder brother said that as long as the money is enough, you can put a little more, but not too much. And accordingly, for the increased part, whether it is for those on vacation or working, it must be increased together, and it cannot be increased for one person alone. .

In this regard, Liu Yuan's wish to put more money for Xiaoling came to nothing, but it was actually a lot. In the end, Liu Yuan looked at the money left on the table and fell into confusion. He couldn't use it up and pay it back. Withdraw so much?

"Baby, just now is the fixed part. The rest is the red envelope for every day. From today to the seventh day of the lunar month, everyone who comes to work every day will have a red envelope. This is also the rule of our Nangong family. Baby, please remember at this point."

"Oh, brother, how do we send it?"

"I'll send them one by one, and those who didn't come will be handed over to Xiaoling."

"Brother, are there many people like Xiaoling who are registered here in our family?"

"Baobao still knows the household registration? Well, yes, for them, this is their home, but don't worry, baby, they are all willing to stay here. After reaching a certain age, they can choose to go elsewhere. They work in a local place, and our family doesn’t interfere in their private lives, so let’s give out red envelopes to the baby, how about it?”

"Well, wait a minute, baby, I'm going to take White Tiger Ari with me."

"can."

Not long after, Liu Yuan was riding on Ah Li's back. As for Bai Hu, he was carrying a basket of red envelopes. Next to him were his eldest brother and his second brother. The three of them were walking together, preparing to give out red envelopes.

As for why the elder brother could remember so many people, Liu Yuan saw the roster in the elder brother's hand and immediately understood. After working for a long time, these people were still compiling personnel.

"Good afternoon, Sister Li. We are here to wish you a happy New Year and give you a big red envelope."

"Good afternoon Xiaoqi, happy New Year, we are here to wish you a happy New Year..."

I don’t know how long it took, but Liu Yuan and his eldest and second brothers finished handing out the red envelopes. Looking at what was left, Liu Yuan handed all the red envelopes to Xiaoling when he finally sent them to Xiaoling. It feels great, but doing hair one by one like this is still not suitable for my baby.

"Eldest brother, second brother, the baby should go back to the room to sleep for a while. If you wait for the New Year's Eve dinner, you can just come to the baby's room and call the baby. The door will not be locked for the baby."

"Well, baby, go to sleep. My brothers will call you later."

"Then goodbye, eldest brother and second brother."

"Well, bye, baby."*2

After returning to the room with White Tiger Ari, Liu Yuan took the pillow and lay on the bed comfortably. After the New Year's Eve dinner, he probably wouldn't be able to sleep like he did at his previous home, so he'd better sleep well now.

Hu~hu~hu~

After a while, Liu Yuan fell into sleep quietly. It was the most comfortable to sleep carefree like this.

Volume 289 #Chapter [-] New Year’s Eve

"Baby, baby, get up. We have to prepare for the New Year's Eve dinner. Get up quickly."

When he opened his eyes, Liu Yuan saw his mother sitting by the bed. Liu Yuan's mind was still a little dazed, and he looked like he hadn't had enough sleep.

Seeing her daughter's cuteness, Nangong Ying laughed out loud, stretched out her hand, touched her daughter's head, and said, "Baby, it's time to get up. Today is the Chinese New Year, so you can't sleep like this." To put it bluntly, like a lazy pig, this won’t work.”

"Oh, ha~" Liu Yuan responded, and then stopped moving, because she was still in a very confused state, and her eyes were dull.

Nangong Ying shook her head and could only pick up her daughter, put on her clothes and shoes, tidied her hair, went to the bathroom and washed her face, and then walked out of the room with her daughter in her arms.

It wasn't until he came to the living room that Liu Yuan's mind became slightly clearer. Looking at the tables of people in the living room, Liu Yuan had some hair. The Chinese New Year in this family was like visiting a guest. There were a lot of people, and he didn't know that his sister-in-law What's it like over there?

With Liu Yuan's arrival, the old man announced that the New Year's Eve dinner could be prepared. After hearing the old man's words, some people walked outside.

"Baby, cover your ears. The sound may be a little loud later."

Before Liu Yuan could react, he felt his mother cover his ears with her hands, and then there was a crackling sound. However, because his mother had blocked his ears, Liu Yuan did not feel the loud sound. .

This is the sound of firecrackers. It turns out that no matter how rich you are, you still have to abide by the most basic Chinese New Year customs. Moreover, the Nangong family is nearby, so there is no need to worry about disturbing people.

The firecrackers were set off for a long, long time, so long that Liu Yuan felt that the firecrackers might have to be set off forever. As the sound of firecrackers ended, the old man announced that the New Year's Eve dinner had officially begun.

Well, the first person to use chopsticks was Liu Yuan. When her mother wanted to stop her, she found that Liu Yuan had already picked up the dish in front of her and put it into her mouth. This made Nangong Ying blush a little and could only feel embarrassed. Looking at his father.

The old man just smiled at this and said he didn't care. Then he picked up his chopsticks and motioned for everyone to use their chopsticks together. We are all a family and there is no need to be restrained.

It was only after Liu Yuan moved his chopsticks that he realized that he didn't seem to be doing it right, but that was because the previous dishes were all made to suit his own taste, and others didn't eat them very much, so Liu Yuan only You won’t admit that you are wrong, um, that’s right, it’s Jiang Zi!

"Baby, do you want a drink? Coke, orange juice, or milk tea?"

"Milk tea, thank you, brother."

"Father, do you want to drink some wine? If you have one or two glasses, we can drink with you."
