Chapter 871： Shou Sui

When the first ray of sunlight broke through the sky in the early morning and dispelled the darkness, the first day of the New Year came.

The door of the living room opened, Ye Tian walked out from inside, walked straight down the steps, and came to the center of the courtyard.

"hiss--!"

Ye Tian raised his arms and stretched out a long laziness, and at the same time took a deep breath very greedily, letting the cold and fresh air in the morning wash his mind and body.

He who stayed up all night because of his years of age, there was no trace of fatigue on his face, and he was still full of energy and energy.

But Betty, Linlin and the three little guys who followed him out of the living room were all tired and almost unable to open their eyes.

After being blown by the cold wind in the yard, these guys were in a better state and their minds became clearer.

Keeping the year old is a tradition of Beijing people during the New Year, and it is also a tradition of many Chinese. The old Ye family is no exception.

Keeping the years old for the elderly means to ‘get away from the old years’, which means cherishing time; keeping the years old for young people means to extend the life of their parents.

Grandparents are very old, so they definitely can't sit and stay overnight. After the sound of midnight last night, they went back to the bedroom to rest.

The rest of the people, my parents, my second uncle and aunt, aunt's couple, and Ye Tian and other juniors, did not leave this courtyard, and they all stayed here to keep their years old.

After Ye Tian's explanation, Betty also went to the village to follow the customs and stayed up all night with everyone.

After stretching his arms and moving his legs and feet, Ye Tian turned his head and said to the little guys:

"Okay! It's dawn, and the keeping of the year is over. If you guys feel tired, go to the East House rest party, wait for your grandparents to get up later, and I will call you!"

However, the three little guys shook their heads unanimously and rejected the suggestion.

"Now there is no need to rest, we are not sleepy, we wait for our grandparents (grandma) to get up and pay them a New Year greeting, we will go to rest again!"

Ye Tian naturally knew what he thought of the three little guys.

He did the same when he was still in school before.

"You guys, I'm afraid you are not waiting for grandparents to get up, but waiting for the red envelopes of grandparents and other elders, right? What a fortune!"

The three little guys who were exposed to their minds couldn't help but blush, and felt a little embarrassed.

However, they quickly returned to normal.

The little girl Chen Xi asked with excitement and expectation:

"Brother! How many red envelopes are you going to give us? I don't agree with too little! You are now a billionaire, too little to get a deal, right!"

"Yes! Brother, tell us about it! Or give it to us now, I can't wait!"

Dongzi leaned forward and said, with a flattering smile on his face.

Linlin's performance is the same, looking at Ye Tian expectantly, wanting to hear the most beautiful answer.

"Everyone has red envelopes, but the specific amount is kept secret for the time being. You will know later. As for giving it to you in advance, don't even think about it! No show!

After grandpa, grandma, and other elders have given out the red envelopes, you three little money fans can get the red envelopes for me and Betty. Let's go ahead! "

Ye Tian said with a chuckle, continuing to suspend the appetite of the three little guys.

"I knew it was like this, it's not surprising! Brother, you are too bad!"

Linlin said disappointedly, and the other two little guys also looked disappointed.

After a little joke, Betty and the three little guys returned to the living room. The temperature in the morning was very low and it was not suitable to stay outdoors for a long time.

Ye Tian stayed in the yard, continued to move his body, and did some simple strength training, such as push-ups.

Soon, more than an hour passed.

Both grandparents and grandparents got up, washed up and went to the living room.

It's time for the younger generation to call the New Year! This is something that must be done on the first day of each new year.

Although kneeling and kowtow are not popular anymore, and the family no longer displays the ancestral tablet, but the old ceremony of New Year greetings cannot be avoided. This is a Chinese tradition.

First of all, the eldest son Ye Tian's father and the eldest daughter-in-law Ye Tian's mother went to pay the New Year's greetings.

"Dad, mom, and son (daughter-in-law) have sent greetings to your second old man. Happy New Year. I wish you good health and a long life!"

Ye Tian's parents greeted New Year in unison and bowed to the two elders together.

The congratulations they said were plain and unpretentious, very ordinary! But the feelings contained in it can't be more sincere, and the best wishes are from the bottom of my heart!

For the elderly of grandparents' age, what is more important than health? What wish is better than a long life?

"Okay! Happy New Year to you, too, and wish you good health and happiness!"

Grandpa and grandma nodded in relief and smiled brilliantly.

Of course, my parents don't have any money for the new year.

This is the tradition of the old Ye family. Those who have taken part in work and got married have no new year's money, including Ye Tian.

On the contrary, it is time for the juniors who work and get married to give money to the elders.

But this is not called New Year's Eve, but a filial piety to the elders, and it is fine to say that it is a red envelope!

After bowing and praying for the New Year, my mother took out two thick red envelopes from her pocket and handed them to grandma.

Grandma naturally wouldn't refuse, so she accepted it very comfortably.

Next are the two uncles and aunts, and then the sister-in-law and the sister-in-law. The same procedure is repeated twice, only the congratulations are different and the feelings are the same.

Soon, it was Ye Tian's eldest grandson's turn, and Betty, the eldest grandson's daughter-in-law who didn't come in.

Ye Tian took Betty's hand to her grandparents and said emotionally:

"Grandpa, grandma, grandson wishing you a happy New Year! Happy New Year! I wish you all the best and a happy life and health!"

When he said this, Betty was also speaking with him, and she was in Chinese. Although she was a little awkward, she was very sincere.

After speaking, the two of them bowed deeply to their grandparents.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Tian took out the red envelope he had prepared and handed it to his grandmother.

This red envelope is very thin. It is not cash inside, but a bank card with a large amount of money stored in it. Just the string of zeros can make people dizzy.

"Okay! I also wish you a good Chinese New Year! You two must have a good time. If the time is right, the sooner you get married, the better. Your grandma and I are still looking forward to the four generations together!

Xiaotian, it's the same thing as before. Although Betty is an American, she is a nice girl. If you dare to be sorry, I will discount your legs! "

Grandpa nodded in relief, and did not forget to warn Ye Tian.

Grandma didn't say anything, she just took Ye Tian and Betty's hands and looked at them lovingly, smiling without seeing her!

"Don't worry about your elders! Let's discuss it carefully later. It should be no later than this year that Betty and I will talk about the evidence, and let your elders embrace the great-grandson as soon as possible!"

Ye Tian said with a light smile, his tone decisive.

"Hahaha, that's great! I'm waiting for your good news"

Grandpa laughed and said, smiling very brightly.

Grandma, my parents, and the other elders all laughed, and everyone's eyes were full of expectations.

"What a thick-skinned face! No shame at all!"

The little girl Chenxi murmured, her face was full of smiles, Linlin and Dongzi did the same.

Amidst the laughter, Ye Tian took Betty back to the side, and Lin Lin immediately made up for them and stood in front of her grandparents excitedly.

After a crisp and sweet "Happy New Year", a sincere wish, and a respectful bow, the little guy received two thick red envelopes as he wished, one for each grandparents!

Linlin cheered excitedly the moment she received the red envelope.

"Ah! It's so thick? Grandpa and grandma, I love you!"

Seeing the two thick red envelopes, the jealous Chen Xi pushed Dongzi away from her jealousy a long time ago, and took the first step to make up for Linlin's position, and began to give her grandparents a New Year greeting and send blessings.

Of course, this little girl got her wish, and so did the Dongzi behind. They each received two thick red envelopes, beautiful nasal blisters!

After the New Year greetings to grandparents, it's time to celebrate New Year to parents, then second uncles and aunts, and finally sister-in-law and little uncle.

At the same time as New Year's greetings, Ye Tian gave a red envelope to every elder. This time it was not a bank card, but a check.

The numbers on the check are also very attractive, making the two uncles and the others stunned and excited!

The three little guys followed up, harvesting the New Year's money again and again, and the forks of their happy mouths were split to the back of their heads, and I didn't know where North was!

Soon, these three little guys came to Ye Tian and Betty.

"Brother and sister-in-law, I wish you New Year greetings. Happy New Year! I wish you all happiness and early birth!"

After the New Year’s greetings, the three little guys immediately reached out their hands and said in unison with expectation and excitement:

"Bring the red envelope! We can't agree without it!"

Seeing the three little guys justified and confident, everyone laughed.

"Hahaha"

In the laughter, Ye Tian took out three thin red envelopes, handed them to them, and said with a smile:

"This time there are only red envelopes, no gifts, one for each person, accept it"

"Thank you brother! Thank you Betty sister-in-law! You are so kind! I love you!"

The three little guys moved very fast. Thanks to them, they quickly put down the red envelope.

Without a moment's hesitation, the three little guys immediately opened the red envelope and began to check the contents.

Immediately afterwards, Dongzi's exclamation and exclamation sounded in the living room.

"Ah! I read that right? Two hundred thousand dollars! Brother, you are so generous! My buddy is steep but rich! It's so cool!"

Obviously, this kid was a little too early to be happy.

Before the exclamation sounded, a black shadow flashed past his eyes quickly, and the red envelope and check in his hand disappeared instantly.

In the next second, my sister-in-law's voice began to ring in everyone's ears.

"You are still young, Dongzi, it is inappropriate and unsafe to take so much money. Mom will keep it for you. If you need the money in the future, you can apply for it. I will issue it at my discretion and take out the rest of the red envelopes too! "

Dongzi was completely stupid and froze in place.

After a while, the boy woke up and immediately wailed in pain.

"Ah! Here again! How many red envelopes have you taken away from me since I was a child? You have distributed it as you see fit. When did you distribute it? Is it still unreasonable? Is there any king's law? What is my life? It's so bitter!"

"It's reasonable? Wang Fa? I'm your mother That's the truth! Hand in the rest of the red envelopes! Don't dare, dare is useless"

The sister-in-law said with her eyes open, her tone beyond doubt.

While saying this, she also looked at the red envelopes and cheques in Chen Xi's hands, as well as the bulging pockets, which was self-evident.

"Ah! I won't give it, this is my lucky money, no one wants to grab it!"

Chen Xi screamed and immediately rushed towards grandma, preparing to seek protection.

Lin Lin's girl rushed to grandma with her.

The second aunt's sight has already locked her, locked the red envelope and cheque in her hand, and the delicate packet. If you don't escape at this time, then don't try to escape!

"Hahaha"

There was a burst of laughter in the living room again, mixed with a few pleadings and weak protests!
