Chapter 114 Li Er learned another trick
"Young Master, General, this time, due to the increase in the number of people in the main family, it is no longer suitable to make money in the dumplings. Please forgive me." Before serving the dumplings, Sister Lian came to Li Er and Yuchi and explained.
There are many people, but Yang Heng felt it was difficult to arrange it. It was a surprise to let Li Er eat copper coins last year. So, if Li Er is still happy to eat it again this year, it has no effect anymore. This was too deliberate, so it was cancelled. Besides, Yang Heng was worried that there would be a child who was careless and swallowed the copper coins directly.
However, this year the filling has increased even more, and there were no meat-filled dumplings in front of Li Er and Yuchi, but various vegetables.
"Okay, Yuchi, it's time for us to leave, alas, no, what are they doing?" There are many kinds of stuffing this year, so Li Er got up and left late. It was so late that he discovered something new again.
"Grandpa (uncle), mother (uncle) Happy New Year. The children wish the two elders good health and all the best." After saying that, a large group of children kowtowed three times to their father and mother under the leadership of Yang Heng.
"Okay, come on, come on, this is for you, and I wish you peace and happiness this year." My father and mother handed the red envelopes to these children one by one.
After the father and mother finished sending it, the second uncle and others were next, so they naturally ended up being hit one by one.
"Come on, come here." Li Er pointed at Sister Lian and shouted. Tonight, Sister Lian was serving these two people, so she naturally came as soon as she called her. "Young master, general, call me." "Well, I called you, tell me what they mean." Li Er was very puzzled by the children's actions.
"Ah, this, I heard that the master's family had just passed a few years ago, and the New Year's habit began to rise. It was that children wished the elders New Year's greetings to their elders, and the elders gave their children New Year's money. It seemed that the children could not afford this time at that time, so the New Year's money was placed under the pillow, and now it became like this..."
"New Year's money is specially made. It is said that it was found in the Han Dynasty, but it was just dropped on clothes." "Young master, this New Year's money is different from that. Our young man said that the New Year's money is used as a decoration to ward off evil spirits, and this New Year's money is used to bless children. Naturally, it also has some effect of warding off evil spirits, and it is also to allow children to have pocket money this year." Well, there is also a story about the New Year, but this is spread too widely, so Yang Heng didn't like to say it.
"Hurry, hurry up, let the palace maids make red envelopes." Li Eryi came back and directed, "Erlang, what are you doing if you don't eat the New Year's Eve dinner?" Changsun asked gently, you know, there is still a whole family waiting.
"Well, Guanyin maid, this New Year's Eve dinner will be ready at any time. Come and put copper coins into the red envelope first." Just as I caught a worker, the maid who is the lotus, explained that the copper coins must be put into the red envelope by the elders. This is the real blessing of the elders. But I am the Tian family, so I naturally have to hold ten copper coins, and I will set rules. In the future, only the Tian family will have ten copper coins in the red envelope, nine royal families, and other ministers will reduce in turn. The lowest level is because Li Er also discovered something, that is, Yang Da gave the child three copper coins, while the other Yang Heng's uncles were one copper coins. Is it obvious that Yang Heng has already drawn a level?
Yes, it's good to draw a level, and it must be a copper coin for one penny. Once a custom is formed, the New Year's money cannot be formed as a habit of giving gifts. Whoever surpasses it can be sentenced directly. Maybe Li Er doesn't understand it now, and he probably will understand it during a while, but this is a new custom. What Yang Heng didn't expect was that although Li Er didn't figure it out, it was his achievements, and he was invaded by Li Er like this.
"What, you said Erlang is giving red envelopes, and there are some things to pay attention to. Then I also have to give red envelopes. What, Erlang has packed ten copper coins, so I only have eleven. What, these eleven have not been said. I say it is suitable. If someone comes, I will also make red envelopes. When Erlang comes, I will also give him red envelopes." Li Yuan was angry now, but if he had the opportunity to tease Li Er, he would have to seize it. Aren't you going to give New Year's money? I will also give you New Year's money.
Unfortunately, Li Yuan miscalculated again this time, and the news was revealed by Li Er. Otherwise, how could Li Yuan’s people know? You know, Li Er also needs blessings, so his blessings are naturally Li Yuan, but he would not go directly to Li Yuan to ask for them, "Father, please give me New Year's money." Isn't this a bit too abrupt?
"Come here, please call all the children in the palace to come over to me and wish me a happy New Year. I want to give them New Year's money." Li Yuan was naturally happy to learn a trick and be able to harm Li Er. So when the red envelope was finished, someone called his children over, so naturally he was in the palace, and there was no time for anyone else to do.
"I wish my father a blessing as good as the East China Sea, longevity as the South Mountain, and a happy New Year." This was Li Er's inappropriate words, and he kowtowed three times to Li Yuan when he entered the door. This is not much. Whether it is the royal family or the poor family, they are all three people to wish you New Year's greetings.
At this time, Li Er's little brothers who came early were a little stunned. They had to kowtow, but they didn't kowtow, so they started kowtowing in a mess. There were three and four, and they also learned blessings from Li Er. What kind of blessings are as good as the East China Sea and longevity is as good as the South Mountain. This is not a birthday wish. Why do you say these words? You just made Li Yuan a big bad face.
"Come on, Erlang, I heard that you got a New Year's money outside. I don't have much money, so I'll give you so much," and said, counting eleven of money in front of everyone and put it in a red envelope. Li Er took it with a dark face, "Thank you, my father, I'll take it back first." "Hahahahahahahahahahahaha." Maybe Li Yuan saw Li Er's bad face, and finally took revenge. After Li Er left, he laughed.
At this time, Li Er also smiled at the red envelope in his hand, "Thank you, Father," this is sincere. He really wanted to ask Li Yuan for blessings. Although he came out with a dark face in the end, it was just to make Li Yuan happy once.
