Chapter 289
Dumplings are indispensable in the morning of the first day of the new year, and lucky money is also indispensable before eating dumplings.
Gu qiaoyue and Gu Qiaowan both received Zhang peipeifa's lucky money. Of course, there is no shortage of Si Moyan, who temporarily lives at Gu qiaoyue's house.
Si Moyan felt embarrassed to receive the new year's money when he was twenty-four, but Zhang Peipei insisted on giving it: "take it, you are a junior in my aunt's heart, and it is right for the junior to take the new year's money."
Si Moyan had to take it.
Gu qiaoyue took the long lost lucky money and felt her nose sour.
I haven't received my mother's lucky money for many years.
I remember when I was a child, Zhang Peipei also said that she would always give their sisters lucky money until they got married. She also said that after they got married, she would then wrap lucky money for their grandchildren.
But since that, she has never received the lucky money she gave her bag again.
In the red envelope is a 50 yuan note, which is a thick lucky money in this era. Gu Qiaowan is happy to say that he wants to use the money to buy records, learn music and dance, and learn performance.
After the 18th month of the new year, Gu Qiaowan is already seventeen. It's very late to learn these at this age.
But Gu Qiaowan was interested. No one in the family said anything, but silently supported her.
On the first day of the new year, we had to go to our relatives, but after Zhang Peipei's divorce, there were no relatives. As for those who need to move around in the county and city, they all finished moving around before the new year. It is rare for the family to sit idle in the living room, watch TV, chat and eat melon seeds.
Of course, Si Moyan can't help playing rogue and taking advantage of others when they don't pay attention.
Until the second day of junior high school, the family went to Shilin village to pay New Year's greetings, and Si Moyan stayed at home.
It also takes more than half an hour to drive from Shilin village. It was more than 9 a.m. when we arrived.
Both aunts have come, and some other relatives have come to pay New Year's greetings.
Zhang is a big family in Shilin village. When he was alive, he gave birth to a son and two daughters.
The youngest son was Zhang Jingqi. His two daughters were Zhang Jinglan and Zhang Jingyi. At that time, Lao Zhang's family was still a landlord and had a good family. The two daughters married a landlord surnamed Wang in ZhouLing county and a rich man surnamed Liang.
Later, when they fought the landlord, the zhangjias in Shilin village donated their property and slowly declined. The landlord family surnamed Wang also donated their property for self-protection and slowly declined. Both families gradually became farmers.
Only the rich family surnamed Liang declined, but it was much better than the landlord's Zhang family and the Liang family. Later, it developed slowly, better than both the Zhang family and the Wang family.
One rich, one poor.
Even close sisters and brothers, the rich dislike the poor is eternal.
However, it is not obvious between Zhang Jingqi's siblings. After a layer of relationship, it becomes more obvious that the rich dislike the poor when they develop to the generation of Zhang peipeipei and others.
However, those surnamed Liang and those surnamed Wang are in the same county and city. As the relationship gets closer, it gradually becomes the attachment of those surnamed Wang to those surnamed Liang.
Zhang, who was surnamed Zhang in the village of Qingyang County, was completely isolated.
But although it is isolated, Zhang Jingqi is their own uncle. It is still essential to pay a new year's call on the second day of the new year.
Zhang Jinglan and Zhang Jingyi are in their seventies. Naturally, they can't come to pay New Year's greetings. It's the younger generation of the Liang and Wang families who come to pay New Year's greetings.
The eldest sister married to the Wang family has a son and a daughter all her life. They are Wang Feng and Wang Ke respectively.
The second sister married to the Liang family has two women and one son. They are brother Liang Ruhai, sister Liang Yimei and Liang Rumei.
Among them, Liang Yimei married the best. It is said that her father-in-law and mother-in-law are retired veteran cadres. Her husband also works in the county government. She is the best and has the most voice among the cousins who are not as good as one generation.
In the room, a crowd of cousins gathered around to talk.
In recent years, the times have changed too quickly. Under the changes of various policies and the previous changes of the production team, the gap between the rich and the poor among the three families has become smaller and smaller. However, because of their sense of superiority since childhood, they still don't look down on the "poor" uncle's family.
Especially the sisters Zhang Zhenzhen and Zhang Sisi.
At present, we are all talking about introducing jobs to Zhang Zhenzhen, Zhang Sisi and their husbands.
In addition to Liang Yimei, Liang Ruhai felt the best about himself. He thought he was working in a large enterprise and had a good life. Under the banner of helping his cousin, he said:
"Cousin, cousin husband, when will you grow those acres of land at home? Why don't you go to ZhouLing county and I'll introduce you to cleaning?"
Seeing that none of them spoke, he flashed disdain in his eyes, smiled and continued:
"Although the cleaning job is a little tired, it can earn more than ten yuan a month. How much can you subsidize your family and improve your living standards? Don't think the cleaning job is tired. Even that job, many people can't get it."
Wang Feng immediately said:
"Yes, cousin Ruhai, you work in a large enterprise in ZhouLing county. It's not difficult to help find a cleaning job,
Cousin, cousin husband, it's better to clean up if you farm at home. These days, the second thing is whether you're dirty or tired. It's mainly because you can earn money. Otherwise, you're tired all year round at home and can't earn money,
Look at what you're wearing. What are these? These clothes are thrown away in our county, and no one picks them up. "
Several people looked at the clothes on Zhang Zhenzhen and others, and their eyes were full of disdain.
Black cloth pants, blue cloth jacket, and they are all made by themselves.
Now where can they make their own clothes? People in their county and city buy clothes in shopping malls.
Even they can buy a suit of clothes a year and go out face to face.
Seeing that Zhang Zhenzhen and Zhang Sisi are both wearing their own clothes, the disdain in the eyes of everyone is even more obvious.
Liang Rumei also said on the side, "it's really not good. Cousin, cousin husband, my daughter teaches in school. You can help clean up in school. Even if it's a little far away in ZhouLing County, I don't know if you can get used to it."
Liang Yimei looked disdainfully at Zhang Zhenzhen, who had never spoken, sneered and said:
"Don't look down on the cleaning work. People do a lot of toilet cleaning work, and it earns more than cleaning. If you don't mind it, I can help."
She seemed to speak vigorously, sat upright, and said with sarcasm in her eyes:
"I didn't say you. Look at you. Everyone doesn't know how to clean up. Now people go out and wear their own clothes, either blue or black. They can be as ugly as they want. Even those who clean toilets in our county can afford to buy clothes when they go out."
