One Hundred and Twelve, 1 Abandoned Tuba

On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, after Chen Hansheng's family finished eating dumplings and glutinous rice balls, Liang Meijuan and Chen Zhaojun each took out a red envelope.

"Han Sheng, happy new year, may you be healthy, happy and satisfied in 2003."

This is Lao Chen's earnest hope.

"Son, happy new year, may you be less angry with me in 2003."

This is Liang Meijuan's earnest expectation.

Chen Hansheng accepted it with a smile, and then took out two more red envelopes as if by magic.

"Old Chen, I hope you will maintain good health in the new year. This family can't do without you."

"Mom, I hope you will get angry less, hit me less, talk less, and go out with Lao Chen more in the new year."

Chen Zhaojun and Liang Meijuan did not expect that Chen Hansheng, who had just entered college, would also have a red envelope. They looked at each other, and Lao Chen said, "We have to accept my son's blessing."

The couple thought that Chen Hansheng's red envelope was just for fun, but when they received it and felt the thickness in their hands, they knew it was wrong.

Go back to the bedroom and open it, one thousand per person.

"Old Chen, your son is doing well in school. We only gave him 600, and he gave us 1,000." Liang Meijuan said.

Chen Zhaojun put the red envelope into his pocket with a smile: "You are not allowed to take this money back, my son respects me for buying cigarettes."

The auspicious snowfall last night added a special flavor to this year. From the second day of junior high school, the people in Hong Kong City packed up their bags and went out to pay New Year’s greetings. Chen Hansheng and his family would go to grandma’s for lunch at home.

After taking the bus to the familiar small courtyard, many relatives were there, chatting lively in the room blowing on the electric heater.

"Yo, college students are here."

As soon as Chen Hansheng walked in, the second aunt said with a smile.

This is the case with a group of people chatting. Whenever a "new person" joins, the topic will involuntarily turn to them.

Chen Hansheng is the only college student here, so everyone is more interested.

"Han Sheng, are you tired of homework in college?"

"Han Sheng, are you talking about a girlfriend?"

"Han Sheng, your cousin is free to check her homework during the winter vacation."

······

There were all kinds of questions, and Chen Hansheng picked out a few simple answers while baking the electric heater.

The eldest aunt was not very happy when she saw it. It turned out that the center of the topic was her son. Chen Hansheng stole the limelight as soon as he came over. In addition, she had some conflicts with Liang Meijuan, so she snorted and said: "There are more and more college students now. The wages of those college students in the small sea factory are not very high."

Xiao Hai is Chen Hansheng's cousin and the son of his aunt, who is now working in a factory in Shanghai.

Liang Meijuan was very unconvinced, and immediately refuted it. It was normal for the sisters-in-law to fight each other when they met. Chen Hansheng didn't take it to heart, and raised his eyebrows with Cousin Xiaohai with a smile.

Cousin Xiaohai also laughed, it seems that the juniors didn't remember the elders.

In the end, it was the grandfather who felt that it was disturbing him to watch TV, so he knocked on the pipe vigorously: "You can't be quiet on the second day of the new year, how old are you?"

Liang Meijuan fell silent, and the eldest aunt insisted on adding another sentence: "Our family Xiaohai now earns 1,500 yuan a month, and will soon be able to buy a mobile phone."

It's okay not to say this, because Chen Hansheng's cell phone rang the next moment.

The sound of "jingle bell" attracted everyone's attention. Chen Hansheng thought it was bad, and forgot to turn off the phone.

The call was from Xiao Rongyu, she was just visiting relatives to ask Chen Hansheng what he was doing, the two casually said a few words and hung up the phone, the room was quiet.

The eldest aunt coughed: "Liang Meijuan, it's wrong for you to do this. Han Sheng is only so old, so you buy him a mobile phone to cultivate the child's vanity."

Liang Meijuan was in a good mood, and she replied calmly: "Lao Chen and I are still using PHS, and he bought this mobile phone by himself while working at school.

"

The eldest aunt didn't believe it, so she went to ask Chen Hansheng again.

Chen Hansheng grinned silently, helping to check the homework of the second aunt's cousin.

If you want to say that the eldest cousin who went to junior high school is also the best, she is the one who added QQ and said "brother, I'm younger sister". Chen Hansheng thought that you can just say the name directly, and you have to go around the corner.

Of course, Chen Hansheng couldn't understand mathematics, so he could only turn over the Chinese to check the uncommon words, but stopped at the composition.

The title of the composition is "Suffering Makes People Stronger". This is a common topic in junior high schools.

"My dad had a car accident last year and had both legs amputated."

Chen Hansheng raised his head and glanced at his second uncle with healthy limbs.

"My mother cried and went blind because of this incident."

Chen Hansheng took another look at his second aunt with 5.0 eyesight.

"It's ok, my precious cousin, she also worked hard to write a composition."

Chen Hansheng turned the pages silently, and unexpectedly saw himself.

"My cousin Chen Hansheng, because of his poor family, cannot find a wife at the age of 26, but he is still very optimistic..."

Chen Hansheng did not speak, moved the winter vacation homework over, and pointed to his name.

The eldest cousin took the eraser knowingly, changed the name of "Chen Hansheng" to "Xiao Haige", then blinked and asked Chen Hansheng if this would work.

Chen Hansheng nodded, the homework was checked.

After eating at the grandparents' house, after Chen Zhaojun's family left, the eldest aunt was still resentful: "Third Aunt bought a mobile phone for the child because of the family's money. It's too vain."

Grandpa was a little unhappy: "Did the third child buy the phone, can't you tell?"

"Han Sheng didn't want to say more, because he was afraid that the Chinese New Year would make you, an elder, look bad. If you insist on fussing about it, you won't worry that he will harden his heart and stop helping Xiaohai in the future."

Chen Hansheng is the grandson, and Cousin Xiaohai is the grandson, so the grandfather still needs to love the grandson more.

The eldest aunt didn't believe it: "Xiao Hai doesn't need other people's help either."

Grandpa shook his head: "If your son's character is half as smooth and round as Chen Hansheng's, I won't have to worry about lying down in the future."

······

On the way back, Chen Hansheng asked Liang Meijuan for instructions: "Mom, I'm going to school in two days."

Liang Meijuan froze for a moment: "Don't you all start school after the Lantern Festival?"

"Yes, the official start of school is after the Lantern Festival."

Chen Hansheng explained: "But I have to go to Sichuan and Chongqing to pick up Xiao Shen first. I have already bought the ticket. After sending her to the dormitory, I will go back to Hong Kong City to go to school with Xiao Yuer."

"Son, why didn't I see that you are so considerate to mom, are you tired from all the tossing around?"

Liang Meijuan took a serious look at her son: "In 2003, can the two girls be sure of one?"

"Mom, look at what you said, we are all classmates."

Chen Hansheng pretended not to understand the sarcasm in Liang Meijuan's words, thinking that it would be impossible to determine one, he just hoped not to add one.

After dawdling at home until the eighth day of the eighth day, Chen Hansheng really went to Sichuan and Chongqing.

Liang Meijuan looked at the empty bedroom, shook her head and said to Chen Zhaojun: "Old Chen, let's take care of our bodies and have a second child. The cabbage didn't reach, and the pig ran happily."
