693 Spring Festival
On the day of the Spring Festival, Qin Xi and Han Shi woke up early to pay their respects to Han Dazhu and Luo Xiujuan.
In the past ten years, Han Shi had never seen what a red packet looked like. This year, the couple received two thick red packets. Han Shi opened it and saw a thick stack of ten yuan. After a rough calculation, he estimated that it was at least 300 yuan.
After the two of them paid their respects, Blood Stealer, Black Ghost, Bane, and Berserk carried Tong Tong to pay their respect to Luo Xiujuan and Han Dazhu.
The four burly men knelt on one knee and cupped their fists. “Happy New Year. I wish you good health and longevity! I wish you a long life!”
“Happy New Year, good health.”
In the end, it was Tong Tong’s childish voice that melted people’s hearts.
“Alright, alright, alright. Get up quickly. You don’t have to kneel. Here, this is your red packet. Everyone has one.”
Han Dazhu was so happy that he couldn’t stop smiling. He quickly took out the red packets he had prepared long ago. Black Ghost, Bane, and Berserk waved their hands and said awkwardly, “We’re all over 30 years old. We’re not children. How can we take the red packets?”
Just as they were about to refuse, Blood Stealer happily took the red packet and smiled widely. “Thank you, Grandpa Han. This is the first time I’ve received a red packet in my life. When I was a child, I was very envious of other children who could receive red packets. I never thought that I would be able to receive one myself one day.”
“Good child. In the future, Grandpa Han will give you red packets every year. In my eyes, you are all children just like Stone.”
Han Dazhu had heard about their background from Han Shi. They were all good people, especially when he knew that they had suffered a lot in the past. His heart ached. Now that he heard Blood Stealer say that, he felt bad for him.
“Here, this is from Auntie Luo. Keep it well.” Luo Xiujuan smiled gently and stuffed the red packet into Blood Stealer’s hand.
Blood Stealer grinned from ear to ear. “Thank you, Auntie Luo.”
Seeing that Blood Stealer accepted the red packet, the other three brothers had no choice but to accept it.
“Come, Tong Tong, this is your red packet. You can buy whatever you want with it.”
Han Dazhu gave Tong Tong another big red packet. Tong Tong imitated Blood Stealer and smiled sweetly at Han Dazhu.
This smile almost melted Han Dazhu’s heart.
After paying their respects, Han Shi, Blood Stealer, and the others were in charge of setting off firecrackers. Han Shi carried a pile of firecrackers from the warehouse and placed them in the courtyard. Not long after, crackling sounds came from the courtyard.
Qin Xi stood far away with Tong Tong in her arms, watching the show. This was the first time Tong Tong had seen such a lively scene. Her big black eyes stared at the firecrackers without blinking. At first, she was shocked by the explosion. Then, the more she looked at it, the more interested she became. In the end, she started clapping her hands.
“Do you like it?” Qin Xi pinched her pink face and asked.
Tong Tong nodded heavily and said in a childish voice, “I like it!”
Qin Xi smiled and said, “When Tong Tong grows up, we’ll let you set off firecrackers, okay?”
“Yay!”
After setting off the firecrackers, the family began to eat breakfast. There were a total of 12 dishes. During this period of time, Luo Xiujuan’s culinary skills had improved by leaps and bounds.
Ever since she learned how to make medicinal cuisine, the food she made not only satisfied their taste buds, but also improved their health.
