Zheng Zhendong, who was still hungover early the next morning, was woken up by his elder brother with a buzzing head and pain.
After a while, I felt less uncomfortable, and then I got up and got dressed.
At this time, there was a pile of food on the dining table, which were all leftovers from last night.
After washing his face and brushing his teeth, Zheng Zhendong hurriedly sat down to eat and had something to eat before he finally recovered!
Zheng's mother saw that Zheng Zhendong's face was much better and said in time.
"Third brother, don't drink anymore, good guy! You drank like a drunk cat last night and didn't even finish the New Year's Eve dinner!"
Zheng Zhendong quickly promised that this situation would never happen again!
The four members of the Zheng family had breakfast and there was no need to clean up because today was the first day of the Lunar New Year and they were afraid of losing their wealth.
After stacking the bowls and chopsticks into the basin, the three brothers and sisters of the Zheng family went from house to house in the courtyard to say New Year's greetings.
First they went to Yi Zhonghai's house next door. When the three of them entered the door, they greeted the couple respectfully.
"Happy New Year, Grandpa and Grandma. We are here to wish you good health and all the best in the new year. May all your wishes come true!"
When Yi Zhonghai and Aunt Yi saw the three brothers and sisters of the Zheng family coming to pay New Year greetings, they quickly responded.
"Okay, okay, okay. Happy New Year to you too. Your aunt and I also wish your whole family happiness and a prosperous New Year!"
After the few people exchanged polite words at the Yi family, Aunt Yi hurriedly brought peanut and melon seed candies, distributed them to the three of them, and poured each of them a cup of tea.
At this time, another neighbor from the courtyard came to Yi's house to pay New Year's greetings. The three brothers and sisters got up and said goodbye.
I also met the three Wang brothers and sisters who came to pay New Year greetings. After saying hello to each other, I went to He's house.
After visiting the He family for New Year greetings, they stayed for a while and then went out to visit other homes for New Year greetings. At this time, the team grew larger and the He family brothers and sisters also joined in.
When passing by Jia's house, the He family brother and sister went in to pay New Year greetings, while the Zheng family brother and sister went to the backyard door and waited for a while.
Zheng Zhenguo lit a cigarette and took a puff, then asked.
"Third brother, do you want to clean up Jia Dongxu before I leave? Let him be smarter in the future and know that our family is not easy to mess with!"
Zheng Zhendong quickly refused: "No, brother!"
"What's the use of a butcher's knife to kill a chicken? I can deal with his humiliation by myself, so how can I use you!"
Within a few words, the He family brothers and sisters came out of Jia's house.
Looking at the unhappy He family brothers and sisters, Zheng Zhendong asked curiously.
"I said what's going on with you two, why do you look unhappy?"
Hearing Zheng Zhendong ask this, Shazhu was complaining and had nothing to say, so he hurriedly spoke.
"Hey! Don't mention it now. The Jia family is getting better and better. Let's go and pay New Year's greetings to his family."
"The result is good!"
"Not to mention that there are no peanuts and melon seeds to serve the guests. The tea poured out is the leftover tea from last night. How can you do such a thing!"
…
The five people chatted and came to Xu's house to pay New Year's greetings to Xu's parents and Xu's mother. After sitting for a while and chatting for a few words, they got up to say goodbye. As a result, Xu Damao and Xu Fengling also wanted to follow them to pay New Year's greetings.
After everyone left the Xu family, Zheng Zhendong looked at the growing team and couldn't help but say.
"Our team is getting bigger and bigger, it won't be like a queue for a while!"
When passing by the door of Yang's house, they saw that the door of Lao Yang's house was locked, so everyone went to Mrs. Lin's house.
After paying New Year greetings to the old lady and chatting for a while, everyone left, but Silly Zhu was left behind by Old Lady Lin.
After leaving Mrs. Lin’s house, I went to the second uncle’s house to pay New Year greetings!
…
It took more than an hour to walk around in one circle. On the way home, the little girl was clamoring to set off a firecracker, but Zheng Zhendong was afraid that she would be in danger, so he refused to let her go!
As a result, as soon as she returned home, the younger sister acted coquettishly and complained to Zheng's mother.
"Mom, third brother is bullying me, please take care of him!"
"It's okay, it's okay. I'll vent my anger on you in a while. Be good and obey me, okay?"
After comforting the little girl, Mother Zheng turned to Zheng Zhendong and asked in a serious tone.
"The third child, now that he has become more capable, dares to bully your sister, is it true?"
When Zheng Zhendong heard this, he explained helplessly.
"Mom, my little sister wanted to set off firecrackers. Aren't I afraid that she would be in danger, so I didn't agree, but you saw it."
"Besides, if you have something to do, you don't ask Big Brother, but you only find trouble with me!"
Zheng Zhendong saw that Zheng's mother's face showed no change, so he quickly tried to divert the trouble to the east and drag his eldest brother into trouble.
Sure enough, Zheng's mother's attention was successfully diverted, and her eldest brother was not spared either. Zheng's mother said.
"Boss, what's the matter with you? You can't keep an eye on them and let them quarrel?"
Zheng Zhenguo, who was shot innocently, thought to himself what had happened to his mother.
Why did I feel that after I went out to pay New Year's greetings, my temper was a little bad when I came back, and then I asked what happened.
Zheng's mother said: "Just now, your uncle came to sit for a while and said that it was not good that you didn't go to Jia's house to pay New Year's greetings. It was all... I was a little annoyed by what he said!"
Zheng Zhendong said angrily on the side: "This Yi Zhonghai is really not a thing. Doesn't he who celebrates the New Year deliberately make people feel disgusted?"
"Okay, Third Brother, how can you come up with all these weird words!" Zheng's mother saw that her son was about to say something unpleasant, so she quickly stopped him.
…
Seeing that it was almost 9 o'clock, Zheng's mother took out a bag from the bedroom, handed it to Zheng Zhenguo and said.
"You two brothers will go to your Uncle Zhang's house to pay New Year's greetings later, and bring some goodies for me!"
…
The two brothers carried their things and walked quickly to Dongsi. They walked for more than half an hour and arrived.
The two brothers stood at the door, took a breath, straightened their clothes, and then stepped forward to open the door.
"Who is it? Just come in without opening the door!" A rough voice came from inside the courtyard.
Zheng Zhendong pushed open the door and saw,
A quiet, elegant and scholarly courtyard appeared in front of me, and I thought that giving this courtyard to Uncle Zhang would be a waste.
Isn’t this a person who burns musical instruments and cooks cranes, destroying things?
At this time, Zhang Shijun, who was practicing boxing in the courtyard, saw that the two Zheng brothers were coming and quickly put away his fists and stood in front of them.
The Zheng brothers hurried forward and said to Uncle Zhang.
"Uncle Zhang, happy New Year, we are here to wish you good health, all the best, all your wishes come true, and good luck in the New Year!"
Zhang Shijun saw the two brothers who came to pay him New Year's greetings and hurriedly said.
"Happy New Year to you too. Uncle wishes you success in your career, academic progress, and good luck in the New Year!"
The three of them exchanged polite greetings before being pulled into the room by Zhang Shijun.
Zheng Zhenguo handed the things in his hand to Uncle Zhang and asked.
"Why aren't my aunt and Hongqi at home? Uncle Zhang."
Zhang Shijun took the things and said: "Your aunt brought the red flag to pay your Uncle Wang New Year greetings. I'll stay at home to look after the house. I'll probably be back soon!"
…
The three of them talked for a while, and then the Zhang family mother and son came back.
When they entered the door and saw the Zheng brothers, the mother and son quickly greeted them for New Year greetings. After a while of greetings, they sat down one after another.
