Chapter 108 Brother Hui, you are such a prodigal
The next day, the rooster sang at dawn.
Except for the little girl, everyone was fast asleep.
However, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, so it is naturally impossible for Huang Tinghui to sleep until three o'clock in the morning before getting up as usual.
"Husband, husband!"
"Husband!" A soft voice whispered in Huang Tinghui's ear, and the soft voice pulled Huang Tinghui out of his sleep.
"What's wrong?"
Huang Tinghui rubbed his eyes and asked sleepily as he looked at the neatly dressed little girl.
"Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and I will follow Uncle Erzhu to pay New Year's greetings in the village soon!"
Hearing these words from the little girl, Huang Tinghui immediately became energetic.
"Oops, I almost forgot about this!" Huang Tinghui patted his head, and he suddenly thought of this.
If Uncle Erzhu sees this moment, he is still lying on the bed.
That would be terrible.
Huang Tinghui quickly dressed and washed, and had just finished all the actions.
Then I heard a voice coming over, "Brother Hui, Brother Hui!"
This was Uncle Erzhu's voice. Huang Tinghui quickly packed up and headed toward the door.
At this time, Lu Daoming, Chen Qiuniang and his wife who were sleeping in the room next to Huang Tinghui also finished washing and woke up leisurely.
"Brother Hui, I didn't expect you to wake up!"
"In the past, I couldn't see you at this hour!"
"Your uncle and I are the only ones who are open-minded. Everyone else is a junior going to the elder's house to pay New Year's greetings!" Uncle Erzhu said to Huang Tinghui.
Huang Tinghui was a little embarrassed when he heard this.
After all, I am a junior, but I asked Uncle Erzhu to come to the door in person.
If others knew about this, they would definitely gossip about Huang Tinghui.
"Uncle Erzhu, happy New Year!" Huang Tinghui hurriedly bowed to Uncle Erzhu.
Uncle Erzhu then nodded to Huang Tinghui with satisfaction.
"The main reason is that I miss my brother and sister-in-law. I also come to pay my respects to my brother and sister-in-law every New Year!"
"Brother Hui, you are busy first, I will go see my brother and sister-in-law!"
After saying that, Uncle Erzhu walked towards the direction where the memorial tablets of Huang Tinghui's parents were placed.
At this time, Huang Tinghui also greeted Lu Daoming and Chen Qiuniang's parents who had just walked out of the room.
"Brother Tinghui, New...ah...Happy New Year...ah!" Lu Daoming yawned and said to Huang Tinghui.
On the other hand, Lu Daoming's wife Chen Qiuniang did not look tired at all.
"We will be leaving soon, so I want to say goodbye to you first!"
Chen Qiuniang took Wu Feilian's little hand and said to Huang Tinghui.
"Just leave?"
"It will probably take a few hours to get from Huangjia Village to the county seat. It's better to fill your stomach first before leaving!"
Huang Tinghui said to Lu Daoming, Wu Feilian and his wife.
"No, no, my parents should go home this afternoon!"
"If Qiuniang and I go back late, we will definitely be blamed!"
"Hurry back now. You may get home before my parents come home!" Lu Daoming waved his hands repeatedly.
Although Lu Daoming and Chen Qiuniang were fooling around, taking a boat to Huangjiacun on New Year's Eve was considered a willful act.
But if Lu Daoming's parents knew that their son and his daughter-in-law were messing around like this, they would definitely be very angry.
It is a very unfilial act to make your parents angry during the New Year.
Lu Daoming did not want to bear the reputation of being "unfilial".
"It's okay, it's okay!"
"It doesn't take long, just let Lian'er come over and you can eat it!"
"I originally wanted to give this as a New Year's gift, so you two can eat some."
"You can also bring some to your father and the others!" Huang Tinghui said to Lu Daoming and Chen Qiuniang.
Can I eat it immediately?
Is there anything else I can give away?
Lu Daoming and Chen Qiuniang looked at each other, and they saw curiosity and expectation in each other's eyes.
"Lian'er, go get some of these tea eggs and bring them to Mr. Lu and give them to Mrs. Lu to have a taste!"
"Remember to put some in the newly weaved bamboo basket and let Mr. Lu take it home!"
Huang Tinghui ordered the little girl.
"Yes!" the little girl responded quickly, turned around and walked towards the kitchen.
Soon, the little girl came out carrying a bamboo basket.
The bamboo basket contained many eggs, all of which were tea eggs made by Huang Tinghui using the West Lake Longjing tea eggs given to him by Lu Daoming.
Coincidentally, Uncle Erzhu also came over at this time.
"Uncle Erzhu, have a taste!"
"I made my own eggs!" Huang Tinghui greeted immediately.
It was probably because Aunt Erzhu was angry yesterday, so Uncle Erzhu came to see Huang Tinghui today without even having breakfast.
When he heard that there were eggs to eat, Uncle Erzhu came over.
After taking the tea egg from Huang Tinghui's hand, Uncle Erzhu noticed the two people standing next to Huang Tinghui.
"I am Brother Hui'er's uncle, so you must be friends of Brother Hui'er and Lian'er!"
"Happy New Year!" Uncle Erzhu said informally to Lu Daoming and Chen Qiuniang.
"Uncle, Happy New Year!"
"Happy New Year!" Lu Daoming and Chen Qiuniang quickly returned the greeting.
Uncle Erzhu nodded, maybe he was really hungry.
He peeled off the shell of the tea eggs and said, "Brother Hui, the eggs you make are different from others!"
"Looks weird!"
Even though he said this, Uncle Erzhu quickly put the tea egg into his mouth.
"It tastes good!" Uncle Erzhu praised.
At this time, Lu Daoming seemed to have remembered something, "Brother Tinghui, you said you made these tea eggs from tea leaves?"
"The tea you are talking about cannot be the jar of West Lake Longjing I gave you!"
"Brother Tinghui, do you know how much that jar of West Lake Longjing is worth?"
"Even thirty taels of silver can't buy it!"
Lu Daoming said to Huang Tinghui dumbfounded.
On the other side, Uncle Erzhu, who was eating tea eggs to fill his stomach, almost choked when he heard Lu Daoming's words.
What!
Thirty taels of silver!
This egg was boiled for thirty taels of silver?
"Ahem..."
"Ahem..."
Uncle Erzhu suddenly felt that what he was eating was not eggs, but money, lots and lots of money.
After finally calming down, Uncle Erzhu looked up at Huang Tinghui with expectant eyes.
He was also waiting for Huang Tinghui's answer.
"Well, I didn't buy any tea at home."
"It just so happened that you brought some tea leaves, so I used some of them!"
"But West Lake Longjing is West Lake Longjing. Good quality tea is different. The taste is still stronger than ordinary tea!"
Huang Tinghui said "haha".
"Brother Tinghui, you are really generous!"
"This tea-boiled egg is really amazing..." Lu Daoming was a bit dumbfounded.
But before he could finish what he said, Uncle Erzhu cut off Lu Daoming's words.
"Brother Hui, thirty taels of silver!"
"You loser!"
Uncle Erzhu's hands were trembling. If he knew that this pot of eggs was cooked with thirty taels of silver.
Beat him to death and he won’t even dare to eat!
Too expensive!
