Crackling, crackling.

There was a deafening sound of firecrackers from outside the window. Lin Chen was lying on the bed, looking at the still dark sky outside the window, and did not intend to go to bed anymore. Today is the first day of the new year. As usual, he has to get up early because he is going to go today. Happy New Year to everyone in the village.

According to what his father Lin Yuanshan said, don't look at the Lin Family Village as big, but if you count them strictly, they can be divided into five surnames Lin, each of which has a good number of people, and there are nearly a thousand people.

It’s fine if you don’t move much, but it’s New Year's Day, not on New Year’s Day. You have to go to visit the ancestors and elders who have passed away or not.

On the first day of the new year, Lin Chen can also receive a lot of New Year's money as usual, but now Lin Chen is not rare for these new year's money, but he will still receive it. After all, this is the heart of the elders, and it has nothing to do with the amount of money. The problem.

On the first day of the new year, of course, the happiest thing is to count those children, because they have the New Year’s money to get, but they can’t keep the New Year’s money for long, and then the parents will use his age to save them as an excuse. Take away.

Take this away, they will be in no time when they want to come back.

Put on the new clothes that eldest sister Lin Xi prepared for herself in advance last night, Lin Chen got up.

Last night was New Year's Eve. According to the usual practice, a vigil was held. Lin Chen stayed until 12 o'clock, and went to bed after letting off the firecrackers and fireworks. As for when his father stayed, he didn't know this. And the little girl Lin Xinyi was also picked up by Uncle Hai last night. Is it New Year's Eve after all? It would be inappropriate for the little girl to stay here again when the family is reunited.

Although Lin Chen's parents especially wanted the little girl to stay here, Uncle Hai came to pick it up in person. Lin Chen's parents didn't say anything, but when the little girl was leaving, they stuffed a big red envelope into the little girl's pocket. , Lin Chen knew how much money was in the red envelope, because he was beside him when the money was stuffed.

Not only the little girl has this red envelope, but even their siblings each have one. After eating, Lin Chen's mother took out the red envelopes and sent them one by one.

There is also a big sister. In the words of my mother, those who are not married are children, and red envelopes must be given out during the New Year.

The amount of this year's red envelope made all her sisters very happy except for the eldest sister Lin Xi. Because this year's red envelope, Lin Chen's mother gave 1,000 yuan to her.

This amount is really a lot, even if it is placed in the countryside twenty years later, it is still a large amount.

Of course, the amount of red envelopes for their sisters and brothers is 1,000, and the money given to the little girl is also 1,000. In the eyes of Lin Chen’s parents, the little girl Lin Xinyi is already Lin Chen’s daughter-in-law. How could the mother-in-law be stingy.

If it's not for fear that Uncle Hai and the others don't want it, Lin Chen's mother would like to pack more.

Last night, the first time their siblings got the red envelopes, the miraculous third sister Lin Wan ran up to Lin Chen, saying that she was going to help Lin Chen keep his red envelopes, and save the money for him, and wait for him to grow it. When he is old, he will use it to marry a wife.

As for the purpose of his third sister, Lin Chen is very clear. Isn't he just trying to cheat his red envelopes and then secretly buy a mobile phone? You really think his brother is stupid.

His red envelope Lin Chen, of course, would not give him this wonderful third sister. Lin Chen gave his third sister a pair of eyes, then turned around and gave the red envelope to his elder sister for safekeeping.

His move made Lin Wan angry. He was flaring his teeth and claws against Lin Chen. It looked like that, I wish I could beat Lin Chen fiercely, because Lin Chen's move was not very harmful, but insulting. Very strong.

Now that the red envelope has been in the hands of her eldest sister, Lin Wan can only give it up, but she is still a little reconciled, and aimed at her younger sisters who are in junior high school.

But it turned out that it hurt her very much, and none of Lin Chen's sisters who went to junior high school agreed.

They are all in junior high school, and of course they are not stupid. They know very well that once their red envelopes are given out, it is equivalent to beating a dog with a meat bun and can never go back. What kind of virtue is this third sister of myself, do these sisters still know.

So, one by one, she strictly refused Lin Wan's request to keep the red envelopes on her behalf.

As a result, the angry Lin Wan attacked the melon seeds and fruits on the table while watching the Spring Festival Gala.

Lin Chen counted. By the time he had set off the firecrackers and went to bed at 12 o'clock, his third sister had killed three apples. You must know that this is not the kind of apple. The apples they bought during the New Year have almost one. Heavy.

I ate eight oranges, each of which was the size of an adult fist. I ate three bananas, two kiwis, and a bottle of juice. I don’t know the exact number of strawberries, but Lin Chen estimated that it would not be less than three. Ten, as for melon seeds, needless to say, she knocked half a trash can by herself.

For his third sister's fighting power, Lin Chen sometimes had to admire, that her own third sister is really a big foodie, and it's really edible. The key is that people can eat so much without gaining weight. Where do you go to make sense.

Dressed up and walked out of his room, Lin Chen found that his sisters had gotten up, some were washing, and some were helping their mother in the kitchen cooking dumplings.

As for my father, Lin Yuanshan, he is feeding pigs, cows, and rabbits raised in the yard.

Ada, they saw Lin Chen appear in the yard, and they all jumped up with excitement. They probably also knew that Lin Chen was wearing new clothes today. They didn’t use their paws to pull Lin Chen’s body, but Use their heads to keep touching Lin Chen's body to express their happiness.

Last night, Lin Chen and the eldest sister, the second sister, the third sister and the others boiled water and took a hot bath for Ah Da and them. After all, it’s the Chinese New Year, Ah Da and they shouldn’t be too dirty.

The main reason is that it doesn't work if you don't wash it. In one afternoon, Ah Da and the others were unable to go out by the little girl Lin Xinyi and Lin Chen.

After bathing Ah Da and drying them, he touched the smooth hair on their bodies and smelled the scent of soap from their bodies. The third sister, Lin Wan, the naive third sister, Lin Wan, strongly hugged Ah Da, saying that it was today. I must let Ah Da sleep with her in the night, and let Ah Da warm her bed.

The behavior of the third sister scared Ah Da and they broke away from the hug of the third sister, and hurriedly ran into the yard. All night, Ah Da and the others were avoiding the third sister. The third sister gritted his teeth to Ah Da and the others, saying that she was looking for a chance to stew Ah Da and them to eat meat.

Of course, Lin Chen knew that her third sister was angry, so she was reluctant to stew Ada and them. To say that except for Lin Chen, whoever treats Ada and them best should belong to her third sister, Lin Wan.

"Brother, you are up, wash up quickly, put the cannon off and get ready for dinner."

Looking at Lin Chen who walked out of the house, the eldest sister Lin Xi said.

"Okay eldest sister, let me set the cannon first, and it's not too late to wash after the cannon."

Lin Chen walked into the room and took out the firecrackers.

As soon as she heard that the cannon was going to be fired, the third sister Lin Wan rushed out of the kitchen with excitement, eagerly wanting to fire the cannon with Lin Chen.

"What are you going to do, come back, you said that your girl’s house is all that old, and you don’t do what girls should do all day long. Sit down and burn the fire."

Looking at the third sister Lin Wan who wanted to run out, the eldest sister Lin Xi immediately yelled at her.

In this family, apart from her parents, the third sister Lin Wan is most afraid of her eldest sister Lin Xi. After all, when they were young, their eldest sister Lin Xi took care of them.

"Oh, good."

Seeing that the eldest sister Lin Xi was angry, Lin Wan had to continue to burn in front of the earthen stove.

Crackling, the sound of firecrackers sounded in the yard.

Ada, these idiots, one by one, couldn't help jumping against the burning and exploding firecrackers, as if they wanted to step forward and give these firecrackers a claw.

After setting off the firecrackers and eating the dumplings, Lin Chen followed his father Lin Yuanshan to start a family New Year greeting. As for his sister and mother, their women are alone together, not with the men.

Lin Chen’s family ranks among the highest in Lin’s family village. Don’t look at Lin Chen at the age of eight, but some people in the village of forty to fifty years old still have to call him grandfather, but usually people don’t follow suit. They are called by their seniority, after all, they are too old, and some of them cannot be called out.

But if it's really a matter of formality, then it has to be classified by seniority.

The eldest sister Lin Xi did not go out, because today many people will come to Lin Chen’s house to kowtow to his deceased grandparents. The eldest sister received these people at home. After all, the kowtows are all men. The eldest sister is responsible for letting everyone smoke. of.

Here, Lin Chen and his father have already started a New Year's visit and kowtow with some of the elders in the same room.

Don’t look at Lin Chen, he is only eight years old this year, but when he is celebrating the New Year, he must follow his father’s family to bow his head, because who will let him be the only boy in the family, and who will he not go.

After Lin Yuanshan passed away, Lin Chen was the pillar of the family. He had to fight against this family. This was when Lin Chen recognized people.

Don't care how much money their family made this year, but in front of these elders in the same village, in front of the village elders and fellow villagers, it is absolutely impossible to put on any airs, on the contrary, they have to be very humble.

They can also not do this, or they can be proud, but the price is that they decide to never return to Linjia Village in the future, and they will not be buried in the ancestral grave of Linjia Village after death.

In the countryside, if you are rich, don't go to siege. The old and young people in the village don’t eat your stuff. You’re very sibling. Some of the old and young people in the village can treat you.

You are the money you have, and the young and old in the village didn't spend any money on you. Why are you sore in front of the young and old?
