    Bai Huahua is more than one hundred taels of silver. When did the third room of the Chen family see such a huge amount of silver?

    So I couldn't bear it: "Are you still tired? If you are tired, go back to sleep for a while!"

    "It's much better!" Chen Nianguan had recovered from the exhaustion of the past few days, and couldn't help stretching: "My cousins are gone?"

    "Of course I'm gone. I'm in a hurry to go home for the New Year. How many days are left before the year?" Liu asked Chen Nianguan to count on his fingers.

    Chen Nianwan laughed, leaned over to the stove, and helped fuel the fire: "Mother, I made a lot of money today!"

    Liu Shi pursed her lips and smiled.

    Not only did my daughter earn a lot of money, but she also made a lot of money when she went out of business in the last few days. After doing the calculations since she started making a living, she deducted the wages for her nephews and paid for the whole family at the county government office.After paying the tax, she also saved more than one hundred taels of silver on hand.

    When she was kicked out of the Chen family back then, even when she thought Wan Wan was being forced to death, she never thought that after things got to the worst point, she would gradually get better.With extra money, you can still live the first fat year in your life.

    Moreover, it is not only them who can live a good year, but also her natal family.

    Mrs. Liu couldn't help but cast a glance at Chen Nianguan, "When your eldest aunt came to the county, she said that your grandparents' house has now built a new house, which is big and spacious, so we must live there for a while during the Chinese New Year."

    It is said that the Liu brothers bought a few acres of land with the money handed over to the grandfather, and expanded the ancestral house. Now the grandfather's family has become the richest man in Liujia Village.

    "Well, it's all up to Mommy." Chen Nianguan had no objection.

    After helping Liu to make fried rice cakes and sugar cakes for a while, Liu asked Chen Nianguan to give some to Zhang Erlang.

    "You don't even know that you and your cousins have arrived in the state capital. Zhang Er helped our mother and I buy the new year's goods at home. Even the blessing characters and couplets on the door are all his.I wrote it in my own hand, thanks to others.”

    Mrs. Liu pursed her lips, obviously very satisfied with Zhang Erlang, "It's a pity that there is no one in Zhang Erlang's family for the New Year's Eve. Let's treat him better."

    "Got it, Mommy!"

    Chen Nianguan went out of the kitchen with the cakes in his hands, and saw that Zhang Erlang was not in the wing room, standing in the courtyard at some point, but under the jujube tree, wearing a new fur coat, just like a jade tree facing the wind.

    "Zhang Erlang, I'll give you a taste."

    Chen Nianguan walked up to Zhang Erlang, and handed over the plate containing the cakes to him, and he had already picked up a sugar cake and ate it.

    Ms. Chen specially gave it to him?

    Zhang Erlang smiled slightly, picked up a sugar cake and ate it as he said.

    "Is it delicious?"

    Zhang Erlang chewed slowly and nodded. After eating, he took out his handkerchief and wiped his hands before asking, "Tired?"

    After the money was distributed yesterday, she was the first one to leave the venue, and she didn't see her again this morning. After Liu Shi went in and looked at it, she realized that she was exhausted and fell asleep the whole time.

    Everyone thinks of the hard work of these days. They are sons and daughters, so it’s okay to suffer a little bit, but a young girl who is similar to her family has also endured it. It’s not tiring, but it’s too difficult for her, so she let herI continued to sleep enough, but didn't expect to wake up before leaving, so had to wait until the New Year's greetings to see you again.

    "Tired." Chen Nianguan nodded.

    Not tired, how to earn hard money?The one hundred and forty taels were hard-earned money, but in this way, the store he wanted to buy after the next year was secured.

    Not only does she have a house and a car, but she will also soon have her own business, so it is worthwhile to be tired.

    Chen Nianguan smiled, happily, and finished biting the sugar cake in his hand, it was very sweet.

    Zhang Erlang didn't understand the person who said he was tired, but smiled so brightly, but he remembered that he wrote "Chenjiajiang Dried Meat in Funing County" every day, and his hands twitched with exhaustion, but when he finally took the money from her hand, he gave birth.The share of joy, but understand this contradiction.

    He is a down-and-out scholar, from penniless to now a little rich, and he has come step by step, all thanks to this Miss Chen who is not afraid of being tired!

    "Miss Chen!" Thinking Zhang Erlang, he took out a bank note from his purse and handed it to Chen Nianguan.

    Chen Nianguan stared at the fifty-two silver note, startled, and jokingly said, "Give it to me?"

    "If Miss Chen is willing to accept it, then I can give it to you." Zhang Erlang also smiled.

    "How can you give me your silver?" Chen Nianguan shook his head.

    Fifty taels is not a small amount, she will take what she should take, but it is not her own, and she is not greedy.

    "Miss Chen also knows that I have no family and no relatives, and I don't have much expenses on weekdays. I don't know what to do with so much money around me. Why don't you let Miss Chen take care of it for me?"

    This is to let yourself manage his money for him?

    "But don't you have to spend a lot of money to study?"

    "Yes, so I have already set aside part of it." Zhang Erlang smiled, "The fifty taels, Miss Chen can help me save it, and when I have a living, she can make decisions for me and invest in it. I just hopeNext time, miss Chen, don't get too tired of fighting for money, the loss outweighs the gain in the end!"

    "Then you are at a loss?" Chen Nianguan asked with a smile, "Do you want me to pay some interest?"

    "It's not a loss, let's take it as the rent that Ms. Chen took me to live here!" Zhang Erlang said sincerely.

    Chen Nianguan made up his mind, nodded, and accepted the matter.

    Seeing that Chen Nianguan was willing to accept the bank note, Zhang Erlang smiled even wider.

    Ms. Chen is willing to help me take care of my money, very kind!

    Soon, it was New Year's Eve.

    Many families renting in Yanlai Lane have returned to their hometown for the New Year, but the alley is still very lively, and there are non-stop sound of firecrackers in the early morning.

    Chen Nianwan also bought a lot of firecrackers and came back. When he had nothing to do, he and Xuanxuan crackled and crackled in the courtyard. The two of them laughed happily.Zhang Erlang, come here.

    Zhang Erlang wasn't angry either, he was full of smiles, and asked to do whatever he wanted.

    Chen Nianguan just feels that it has been a long time since he had such an enjoyable experience, because the burning of fireworks and firecrackers is banned in the place where he lives in modern times, and it has been going on for many years.

    When it was dark, before the reunion dinner, don’t know which house in the city started it. The hanging cannon was ignited with a bang, and then the deafening sound shook the entire county.

    A pair of long hanging cannons were also hung at the gate of Chen's courtyard.

    When Zhang Erlang went to light it, Chen Nianguan and Xuan Xuan covered their ears with their hands.

    After a while, the last bang sounded, the courtyard was filled with gunpowder smoke, and the ground was covered with red paper, and the four happily went to the dining hall to have a reunion dinner.

    Chen Nianguan's family reunion dinner is pot and dumplings.

    The cooking utensils used happened to be the same as when the stall was launched, and three stoves were placed on the round table, one is naturally used for eating pots, one is used for cooking dumplings, and the other is because Chen Nianguan said fried dumplings are also delicious,So took an iron plate and set it on the stove. After the dumplings were cooked, put them on it if wanted to eat them, and simmered them slowly over charcoal fire.

    Because we have to keep the year old, eat slowly and wait slowly, there is no rush.

    Occasionally, he would go out to set off firecrackers and fireworks in the middle, and come back to continue the second half when he was tired from playing. In this way, when it was almost midnight, Chen Nianguan urged Zhang Erlang to fasten the second pair of hanging cannons at the gate of the yard.

    Zhang Erlang walked to the door with a large roll of hanging cannons in his hands and feet. When he was hanging up, Chen Nianguan was still pointing.

    Liu Shi, who poked his head out from the dining room, looked at the two of them with a knowing smile.

    From this point of view, Zhang Erlang and his own Wan Wan are quite a good match.

    Soon, the sound of firecrackers all around quieted down, replaced by the sound of bells, and every household in the county seemed to be silently counting the bells.

    Chen Nianguan was also inexplicably nervous, and unconsciously grabbed Zhang Erlang's sleeve without realizing it.

    Zhang Erlang held the incense stick to light Xin'er in one hand, and trembled slightly in the other hand. He lowered his head and looked at her. Chen Nianguan raised his head and met his eyes without flinching.

    By accident, Zhang Erlang held Chen Nianguan's hand.

    Chen Nianguan didn't notice anything wrong at all, let him pull him closer, and asked him, "How many times?"

    Dafeng Temple rings the Big Ben in the temple every New Year's Eve, and strikes one hundred and eight times, and the last stroke represents the arrival of the new year.

    "Sixty-sixth blow." Zhang Erlang looked at the lady who was snuggling beside him, and responded with a smile.

    Chen Nianguan nodded and counted in a low voice, and Zhang Erlang was also thinking silently in his heart. When it reached one hundred and seven, Zhang Erlang quickly lit the trigger for hanging the cannon, and then pulled Chen Nianguan back two steps quickly.

    Chen Nianguan couldn't help laughing out loud. When the last bell rang, countless firecrackers seemed to light up at the same time, alarming the entire Funing County.

    The new year is here!

    Chen Nianguan covered his ears with his hands, looked at Zhang Erlang amidst the sound of firecrackers, and said loudly to him: "Happy Chinese New Year!"

    Zhang Erlang didn't hear what she said clearly. Amidst the deafening sound of firecrackers, he looked at the little lady's flushed face and seemed to be tempted by those twinkling eyes.Going up, never thought that Xuan Xuan would run over and knock the two of them apart.

    Zhang Erlang had no choice but to let go of his hand, looking at Xuan Xuan who was covering her ears and laughing and bouncing around in the courtyard, the disappointment in her eyes flashed past, and when she looked at Chen Nianguan again, the expression on her face was restoredsmile.

    After the sound of firecrackers stopped, they went back to the dining hall to eat for a while. Mrs. Liu took out the wrapped New Year's money, one for each person.

    Chen Nianguan also packed three lucky money, one for each person.

    Xuan Xuan got the New Year's money from A Niang and her sister, and turned to Zhang Erlang: "Big Brother, Xuan Xuan is one year older, do you want to give me a New Year's money too?"

    Zhang Erlang pursed his lips.

    He really didn't know that he had to pay for the new year's money, which was embarrassing, but he immediately made up for it, and immediately took out a tael of silver and put it directly in Xuan Xuan's hands.

    Mrs. Liu took it and helped to wrap it up in red before stuffing it back to Xuan Xuan.

    After the four of them talked for a while, they went to rest separately.
