Chapter 1797 New Year's Eve

In the kitchen, Mrs. Sun took out a bamboo basket and handed it to Yang Huazhong.

"Everything is in here." Sun said.

Yang Huazhong nodded, looked down at the things in the basket, "Yes, everything is complete."

Hearing this, Mrs. Sun glanced at Yang Ruoqing, Yang Ruolan and others.

Everyone understood and stepped aside to make room for the stove.

Yang Huazhong knelt down, and Da'an also came forward. Together, the father and son placed the offerings in the bamboo baskets one by one.

Then Yang Huazhong took out a bunch of incense paper, lit it, and put it on the corner of the stove to burn.

While Yang Huazhong and Da'an and his son were burning there, Sun and her children stood quietly behind, watching and waiting.

When the incense paper was almost burned, Yang Huazhong began to lead everyone to bow and worship.

Later, Yang Ruoqing and others followed suit.

After the prayers were over, the dishes, chopsticks, and wine cups really started to be laid out.

Hot dishes were brought to the table one after another, chicken, duck, fish, meat and vegetable combinations, desserts as embellishments, health-preserving soups, sobering soups, all of which were performed by you and me.

Old Yangtou was the oldest and senior person here, and Yang Huazhong helped him sit in the first place on the east side.

Mr. Tan sat opposite Lao Yang's head, which was equivalent to the second child's position.

Next, Yang Huazhong wanted to help Tuoba Xian to sit on the third child, but Tuoba Xian insisted on pushing Blacksmith Luo up.

After the elders sat down one after another, the juniors behind them all found their seats according to their age.

After Luo Fengtang lit a firecracker in the yard, the New Year's Eve dinner officially kicked off amidst the crisp and loud sound of firecrackers.

During the banquet, toasts were given to the elders, dishes were served, and words of good luck and good wishes were said.

The important thing is that these auspicious words are not repeated.

After eating and drinking, Yang Ruolan, Tuoba Xian and the others removed the dishes and chopsticks to the kitchen together.

Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang wiped the table clean together and put the pastry boxes prepared before on the table.

Rice cakes, melon seeds, peanuts, sugar dimes.

Tangerines, candied fruits, preserved fruits, red dates, golden candied dates...

There is a row of them all arranged, which is so dazzling that people can see it.

"Sir, drink tea." Luo Fengtang brought the newly brewed tea and presented it to Lao Yangtou with both hands.

Old Yangtou took the tea and glanced at Luo Fengtang appreciatively.

Here, Yang Ruoqing also made tea for Tan and the others.

During this process, Baby Luo was held in Xiao Yaxue's arms, holding a big red date in his chubby little hand and studying it.

Mrs. Sun came from the backyard and hung a small red purse embroidered with the word "Fu" on Baby Luo's waist.

"This is the new year's money given to my baby by Gong Gong and Grandma. I wish my baby a long life, wealth and health." Mrs. Sun said auspicious words and couldn't help but kiss Baby Luo's little face.

Yang Ruoqing walked over and pinched the small purse.

After weighing it with her fingers, she could feel that there were six taels of silver inside.

Six taels of silver, two years of expenses for a family of five.

"Mom, just hang it up for a moment until you get the idea."

After a while, Yang Ruoqing found an opportunity to follow Sun back to the backyard to return Sun's supplies.

She returned the purse she had taken off from Luo Baobao's waist to Sun.

Before I got married, all the input income from the restaurant and business belonged to this family.

Later, when she got married, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang discussed the issue of ownership of the restaurant and business.

I plan to live in a 50-50 relationship with my mother-in-law.

However, Yang Huazhong insisted not to take it, not even a cent.

The reason the man gave was very simple. Everything in this family was earned by his daughter.

Whether it was the new house, the additional fifty or sixty acres of land, or Da'an and Xiaoan's schooling expenses, it was all provided by Yang Ruoqing.

When a daughter gets married, her parents should give her a dowry.

And everything in the family was earned by their daughter, so Yang Huazhong and Sun regarded the restaurant and all the businesses as dowry for Yang Ruoqing and followed her into the old Luo family.

Yang Huazhong and the others will keep the fifty or sixty acres of land for themselves.

"Mom, all our family's income now comes from the dozens of acres of fields. The yield of rice in the fields is not high. We have to pay taxes to the government every year and pay the wages of the helpers."

"Being kind, doing things, eating and clothing all come from those fields."

"These six taels of silver are not a small amount."

"Baby, just take it and see what you mean. We absolutely cannot accept the money!"

"We will return the New Year's money given by my mother-in-law and uncle one by one."

Yang Ruoqing said, insisting on returning the purse to Sun.

Mrs. Sun refused to give in no matter what, and deliberately lowered her face to annoy Yang Ruoqing: "You stupid girl, what stupid things did you say?"

"Your father and I are living a comfortable life now, and our family has so much land."

"The six taels of silver are our thoughts for the baby and are the child's lucky money. You must accept it for good luck!"

Yang Ruoqing really couldn't resist this time and had no choice but to accept it.

Seeing Yang Ruoqing accepting the lucky money, Mrs. Sun smiled with satisfaction.

The woman took out another purse also embroidered with the word "Fu" and sighed softly.

"You should also keep this purse..."

"Mom, this is..."

Yang Ruoqing looked at the purse, her eyes suddenly turned red, and tears rolled down her face.

Chen'er...

Mrs. Sun supported Yang Ruoqing and said, "It's Chinese New Year, so don't shed tears!"

The woman raised her hand to wipe it off for Yang Ruoqing, and squeezed out a smile to comfort Yang Ruoqing: "Chen'er, you will definitely find her, and one day, you will be reunited with her flesh and blood!"

Yang Ruoqing nodded vigorously: "Well, definitely... yes!"

Search, keep searching, never give up.

"Okay, my Qing'er is a good boy. Mom knows that you are suffering more than anyone else, and you are always holding it in."

Mrs. Sun then comforted Yang Ruoqing, "Tonight is the Chinese New Year, so you have to be happy, you know?"

"Come, put your purse away, and then help mother pack other purses."

Mrs. Sun pulled Yang Ruoqing to the bedside. There were four empty purses on the bed and some copper coins beside them.

"Mom, are these the New Year's money for Xiuxiu and Shuangzi?" Yang Ruoqing asked.

Mrs. Sun nodded: "Yes, your second brother and your aunt are coming over to pay New Year's greetings later that night, so I just happened to give them the New Year's money."

Yang Ruoqing understands.

The second brother's child embroidered embroidery, another generation of people.

As Yang Huazhong and Sun, they are the third grandfather and third grandmother of Xiu Xiu.

It is a matter of course for grandparents to give New Year's money to embroidery, not only from Yang Huazhong's family, but also from Yang Huaming and Yang Huazhou.

As for the twins of the Yang Huamei family, Yang Huazhong and Sun will also give them.

But it is not given every year.
