Chapter 177： Change

Chapter 177 Changes

Xu Haiyuan took a nap in the evening, and now he is sleepy,

Even so, he still held the two red envelopes tightly and refused to let go.

Su Anying undressed her son, put a diaper on it, and pulled out the red envelope while her son was sound asleep.

As a result, I opened it and saw that there were ten yuan in each of the two red envelopes. "Shiyan, look, our father and mother gave it to the child."

Xu Shiyan was shocked when he saw it, and hurried to the east room with the red envelope.

"Father, Mom, did you make a mistake, why did you give Yuanyuan so much money?"

A kid with ten dollars in a red envelope? Are you crazy?

Su Anying was a new wife last year, and she only got two yuan. How could she be so spoiled with children?

Xu Chenghou seemed to expect his son to come back to find him, so he was not surprised at all, and just rolled his eyes at his son.

"Grandpa gave to grandson, how much money do you still care about?

What the hell, when will I have to get your consent to do something? "

This is what the old couple had discussed a long time ago. They felt that they would live with the third child this winter, and that they would eat and drink for the third child, and that the third child would also buy clothes for the new year.

The old couple felt uncomfortable, so they wanted to use the name of giving the child lucky money to make fun of it.

Xu Shiyan somewhat understood what his parents were thinking, but this was too much.

Xu Shiqin's monthly salary is only a little over 20 yuan, and giving 20 yuan to a nine-and-a-half-month-old baby is also a loss to these two old ladies?

"Father, mother, we are a family, so you don't need to be so alien to me.

This money, you two should keep it, because we have to build a house after the next year. "Xu Shiyan reached out and handed the money to Zhou Guilan.

"Third brother, do you look down on your father?

Even if your father is incompetent, it’s not like he can’t even come up with twenty yuan, right? "

Xu Chenghou got angry and raised his voice.

"I tell you, it is for children, you save it, and you are not allowed to move it.

Do you think I gave you flowers? You are so beautiful. "

Xu Shiyan was so choked by his own father that he didn't dare to confront his father after Chinese New Year, what could he do?

"San'er, this is given to our grandson by our grandparents. It is more or less our intention, so don't worry about it.

Your father is right, you are responsible for helping to keep it, and when the child grows up, you can spend it as you like. "

On the other end, Zhou Guilan was rarely on the same side as her husband, helping her husband persuade her son.

In the end, Xu Shiyan still failed to convince his parents, so he had to accept the red envelope and go back to the Westinghouse, asking his wife to save the money for his son.

After New Year's Eve, when you open your eyes again, it will be the New Year's Day.

I made a lot of dumplings last night, so I specially left a curtain uncooked and put them outside to freeze.

In the morning, boil the water and cook the frozen dumplings. After the family finished eating the dumplings, before they finished cleaning up, the New Year's greetings came to the door.

Donggang is not like a big house with just a few households. There are more than 300 households in the second brigade alone, and there are also a large brigade and a third brigade.

Although Xu Shiyan has only been in Donggang Commune for a year, he gets along well with many people.

On this day, many people came in and out of the house, and they all came to pay New Year's greetings to Xu Chenghou and his wife.

Xu Shiyan also found an opportunity to visit the homes of Yu Shouguang and other brigade cadres, as well as Guo Shouye, Han Wenzhong and others, to pay New Year's greetings.

Anyway, this family sits for a while, and the other family chats, and the day passes like this.

The second day of the first lunar month is the day when the Xu family brothers reunite.

Xu Chenghou had already said that after the separation, no matter where he was, he had to come back on the second day of the first lunar month.

Xu Shixian and Xu Shian are both in Songjianghe, so they are close to each other, and they arrived early with their wives and children.

Xu Shide lived a little far away from Daying, so at least he caught up with a Yanling bus. The couple rushed over in the morning with their son in their arms.

A big family gathered here at Xu Shiyan.

It's Chinese New Year, Xu Chenghou naturally won't care about his sons anymore, so his attitude is okay.

Especially when he saw his grandchildren, the old man was immediately overjoyed, and quickly took out a stack of red envelopes, giving each child 20 cents.

Seeing that the old man didn't mean to be angry, Xu Shixian and the others also breathed a sigh of relief, and sat down to chat with their parents and brothers.

"Hey, third child, your house even has a radio?

Sewing machine, radio, bicycle, plus the watch on your wrist, three turns and one sound let you get it all together, it's really doable. "

Xu Shian looked at the radio on the box, his eyes were wide open, how could he not be envious?

"Third son, if you want to make money in the future, remember to call your brother. You think my two sons should make more money, right?"

Xu Shian leaned over to his younger brother and said with a smile.

Xu Shian and Xu Shixian both moved to Songjianghe and settled in the food team.

This vegetable team is actually the family team of Forestry Bureau employees, who grow vegetables and sell them to Forestry Bureau employees.

Start working every spring, and work for one day, and the team will lend you one yuan as wages. After all the harvest in autumn is sold, the team will settle the wages.

In winter, there is basically nothing to do, so I can only idle.

Xu Shian and Xu Shixian had already entered winter when they moved here. They didn't work in the vegetable team in summer, so naturally they didn't have their salary.

These days, they are all living on the wages of Xue Xiulin and Wei Mingrong.

But there are four or five people in both families, so what do you do with that little salary?

It was thanks to the rations and money that were distributed when I moved out of the big house, not much, and with the savings I had saved before, I could hold on for a while at least.

Xu Shiyan looked at the two elder brothers beside him, feeling a little complicated, with a little worry hidden in his joy.

Because of his rebirth, the fate trajectory of the two brothers is also different from the previous life.

Originally, the eldest brother Xu Shixian should have settled in Donggang Commune in the spring of 1979.

Xu Shixian moved from a big house to Donggang. He has no foundation, and he just does some hard work.

In winter, the commune participates in logging, and Xu Shixian goes up the mountain to carry logs.

Anyone who has ever lifted a log knows that four people must lift a large log in unison, shouting and shouting.

One day when lifting the wood, Xu Shixian was on the front bar, and the big guy was chanting to lift it up, but the back bar staggered.

It doesn't matter this time, Xu Shixian's spine was injured, and after he recovered from the injury, he couldn't straighten up after bending over.

Fortunately, his injury was new, and he had been wearing a steel vest for two years, and it was corrected in a daze.

But because of this, Xu Shixian couldn't do any more vigorous work.

Fortunately, after the winter of 1979, the policy was changed, and it was allowed to withdraw from the company to work alone, and it was allowed to open photo studios, restaurants, barber shops and other individual businesses.

Xu Shixian knew how to fiddle with cameras, so he opened a photo studio, and he could make a fool of himself anyway.

Xu Shixian and his wife both had their own brains. They moved from Donggang to Songjianghe, bought a vacant lot and built a house by themselves, and then sold it after two years of construction, and made some money by dumping the house.

Later, the couple partnered with others again to run the ginseng business. They bought red goods from here and sold them in the south.

When it was the most prosperous, it was shipped to the south in wagons, and the money was carried back in suitcases.

It's a pity that in 1991 and 1992, the market for ginseng plummeted, Hong Kong companies stopped accepting the goods, and the sale of ginseng had to be suspended.

After that, Xu Shixian could only do some small business.

With the family wealth saved before, and after I got old, I applied for family worker retirement, and my life is quite comfortable, much better than Xu Shiyan.
