The day before New Year's day, Han Mingxiu sent the boar head to Huo's home early in the morning. In addition to the boar head, she also brought 20 quail cubs, 10 jin peanuts and 30 Jin rice.
Although aunt Huo is not satisfied with Han Mingxiu's New Year gift, considering that she has not given a dime to her future daughter-in-law for the Spring Festival, if she wants to be reasonable, she has to be reasonable first. So, that's it
Granny Huo really wanted to give her granddaughter-in-law some money to make her children happy. However, the eldest daughter-in-law kept a close eye on her for fear that she would steal the money to Xiaoxiu, so she didn't find the chance in the end.
Han Mingxiu hopes that Granny Huo won't give her money, or she will be under pressure. After all, the old man doesn't have any money. How can she save that money from her teeth? How could she have the heart to do it? So it's better not to give it. Aunt Huo looks at it, but Grandma's money hasn't been given. Han Mingxiu is very happy!
However, grandma didn't give her any money. My uncle and aunt gave her ten yuan.
In fact, my uncle and aunt originally planned to give her five yuan. In this era, a substitute teacher's salary is only eight yuan a month. They give Han Mingxiu five yuan, which is really a lot.
However, seeing the generous annual gift she brought, my uncle and aunt changed their mind and felt that if they gave her five yuan, the children would have to pay for it. They couldn't bear it, so they gave her another five yuan. In this way, the money for her waist would be ten yuan!
Han Mingxiu's New Year gift to his uncle and aunt is much more abundant than that to the Huo family. There is a large piece of wild boar meat, about 20 jin, and 100 quail eggs. (Haixing once said that she would also raise quails. If these eggs hatch out, it would be enough for her to raise them). In addition, she also gave 10 jin of apples, 10 jin of crabs, 10 jin of peanuts and 10 jin of melon seeds.
Seeing that she had brought so many things, the eldest aunt kept complaining: "look at you, it's not an outsider. What are you doing with so many things? No, I'll get half of it back later. "
Han Mingxiu said with a smile: "I didn't take it alone. I went to my uncle's house with my eldest sister, the second sister, and the third sister. Is it enough to take this thing?"
Apples are very popular in this season, and big crabs are even rarer. If Han Mingxiu said it was a new year gift for her uncle and aunt, they would be suspicious of the origin of crabs and apples. Now with the second elder sister, they will no longer have any doubts. After all, the second elder sister married in the city, and she is still a cadre family. In their eyes, it's equivalent to marrying into a rich family, so it's not surprising that they can take out these things.
The eldest aunt heard that it was their elder sister's things, and she talked too much, but she was not as excited as she was at the beginning.
At lunch time, my aunt and Han Mingxiu nagged about her wangmantang family. Han Mingxiu knew that the old Wang family had already separated. Liu Zhaodi couldn't stand the new daughter-in-law, and he couldn't help it. In the end, she had to bear the pain of separation. If you live your own life, it's out of sight and out of mind, not to mention being angry with your daughter-in-law.
"It's time! Make them feel bad. " You don't know how the people in Tunli laugh at them! Put Cui son so good daughter-in-law, he they go to death, finally returned to sue back to her mother's home. This time, I'll take a female tiger back to deal with them. Now they will suffer for the rest of their life. Ha ha ha... "
Han Mingxiu listened with interest.
To be honest, she also feels that she has a strong sense of hate and schadenfreude. At the moment, she really wants to go to Lao Wang's house to interview Liu Zhaodi and ask them what they are feeling now. How can they feel?
Because she was too excited, Han Mingxiu was very much like seeing Lao Wang's family and seeing with her own eyes that they were in a mess now. So when she went home, she made a detour from Lao Wang's door.
Unfortunately, all the people in Lao Wang's family are in the house, and none of them is outside.
However, the layout of Lao Wang's courtyard has changed a lot. Originally, the broad courtyard and five Adobe houses were built with great style. Now a wall was built in the middle of the courtyard to separate one house in the West from other houses. The courtyard and garden became two, and one family became two.
Obviously, the old Wang family just separated Wang man and his wife. Wang man Cang and Man Wang man Ku are still following Wang Fengchun and his wife.
Han Mingxiu rode around Lao Wang's house. Lao Wang's door was closed. He never saw anyone, so he had to go back.
The next day, she went to the county again, this time to send new year's goods to everyone.
She prepared a lot of new year's goods for everyone, including ten catties of wheat, ten catties of apples, ten catties of crabs, five catties of soybeans, five catties of mung beans, and a boar head.
Sister Heli has gone, and there are only seven families left. Among them, uncle Zhou's, uncle Gao's and aunt Su's families didn't have a separate pig's head, but each family had an elbow, and uncle Zhou's family had an extra bag of bean buns.
With these things, they can have a big new year.
When he sent these things, these people were not as happy as she thought, even with a little fear and worry.
Han Mingxiu asked to know. The new year, they are very afraid, afraid of those red guards will come back home or torture them. According to the usual practice in the past years, they have to come to check it every year during the Chinese New Year. If they can check something they like, it's OK. If they can't get anything valuable, they will be beaten and scolded,
When Han Mingxiu learned about the situation, she took out all the beads and chains she had left in her space in her last life, which could not be sold, and gave them to keep them for a rainy day.
These are not valuable things. They are all decorative chains bought in the past to match clothes, and some are souvenirs from tourist areas brought back by friends when they travel. There are imitation jade bracelets worth more than ten yuan each, hanging chains inlaid with water diamonds, gem rings made of plexiglass and imitation coral and Turquoise Earrings made of high-grade plastic
These are all worthless things, but they are all imitations of high-tech synthesis of later generations. In the future generations, the things on the rotten street can be seen as fake by the discerning eye.
However, no one knows in this era, because there is no such high-end technology in this era that can make such a simulation thing, so if you take out any one of them, you can confuse the ignorant with the fake. Especially those red guards who don't know how to beat, smash and rob, they will be like the treasure.
Han Mingxiu told them that if they were forced to do nothing by those radicals, they could take it out to deal with the emergency. But if you can avoid it, try not to take it out. Otherwise, if you raise their appetite, they will have to force them in the future.
She also secretly gave uncle Gao and uncle Zhou the key to her rental house and told them that she had put a lot of rice and several silk bags of tree leaves in the house. If they didn't have enough rice or firewood, they could go there to get them.
In addition, Han Mingxiu also told them: in the small pot leg in the yard, she stored some frozen meat and dried vegetables. If you don't have food to eat, you can go and get some.
Next, she is going to visit her fiance in Heilongjiang Province. I'll probably live there for a while. I won't be able to help them in the next few months. Let them take care of themselves.
Uncle Zhou and uncle Gao were deeply moved to see that Xiuer had arranged their way in the future. They told her to be careful on the way and not to think about them. They would live in peace and wait for her to come back
Having settled down all over the house, Han Ming Xiucai began to prepare things for going out.
She prepared the down jacket in advance, that is, she took out her old down jacket and made it lighter, more fit and easier to wear in the cotton padded jacket.
She also changed one of her mink coat to the style of ordinary cotton coat, that is, she covered the mink coat with a washable outer skin. If she didn't take it off, no one would know that it was expensive mink inside!
