Chapter 92
"Nonsense." Mother Su pushed away the mahjong in front of her, and looked at the other three with a smile.

Mother Su's luck was surprisingly good tonight, and she made a lot of fools in a row, but she was soft-hearted in collecting money.

After fighting for so long, the two old men didn't feel tired at all. They even became more and more excited as they fought, and they would not give up until late at night.

If it weren't for the time being almost up, I might still be reluctant to leave the table.

It was almost twelve o'clock, and the whole family stood at the door together.

The firecrackers in the yard had already been set up, and it was time to light them when the bell rang.

The TV in the living room was also counting down, and Su Qinghe counted down with the people on the TV.

"Five, four, three," when counting down to five, Su Qinghe hurried out, "Two, one!"

As soon as the words fell, the sound of firecrackers sounded almost at the same time.

"Happy New Year."

"New Year's Eve!"

"Happy New Year!"

For a while, the Su family's yard was extremely lively, and everyone had New Year's smiles on their faces.

Looking up at the sky, the appearance of the fireworks blooming was reflected in the eyes. I don't know if I was too excited or was illuminated by the fireworks, and there was a faint blush on my cheeks.

The fireworks are over soon.

But Su Qinghe's most exciting time has come.

Several adults took out the red envelopes they had prepared long ago, one for each child, Su Qinghe, brother and sister, and aunt and uncle sent extra red envelopes for the two children entrusted by Wang Xiujuan.

Even Steward Su took out the red envelopes he had prepared early in the morning, and all the children had their share.

He has worked in the Su family for so many years, and the Su family is generous with food, clothing and housing. He has little place to spend money, and the money he has earned over the years has been saved, and his savings are enough for him to retire.

Besides, the Su family will never treat their servants badly, and the Su family will give you a pension if you have no children.

The children were not too polite, and took the red envelope from Butler Su one after another, thanking him with a smile and wishing him a happy new year.

"Mom and Dad, this is your red envelope." Both sisters-in-law and grandparents prepared red envelopes for their parents-in-law.

Not only they have red envelopes, but all the servants of the Su family also have red envelopes, and they are all giving out red envelopes at the moment, not a lot, just for auspiciousness.

But this is enough for them to be happy for a long time. In the past few days during the Chinese New Year, if the wages for shifts are doubled.

Su Qinghe held the thick stack of red envelopes in her hands, and the smile on her face never let go.

Although she is not short of money, who can refuse a red envelope? Of course, the more the better.

It's past midnight, but no one wants to go to bed. Even seeing how energetic Grandma is, they have the intention of sitting down and continuing to play.

In recent years, Su Qinghe has quietly given water to the family members, and the family members have no physical problems. Even the annual physical examination shows that they are in better health than their peers.

Therefore, when Su's mother wanted to hit her, no one else stopped her. She just watched the time, got up and walked around after sitting for a long time, moved her body, and ate something.

After Su Qinghe received the red envelope, she stopped watching her father and the others play cards, and dragged her brothers to set off firecrackers again.

Not only did she pull a few older brothers to play, she also pulled other children in the yard to play together.

These are the children of the servants of the Su family, and they don't usually go to the main courtyard to play easily, and the adults also restrain them, fearing that the children will disturb the master's house.

They usually live in the house arranged by Su's family, which is just an alley away from Su's house, and these children usually play in the alley.

Su Qinghe was occasionally bored, so she went to the alley to hang out with these children. Although the adults had told them, children were forgetful, and Su Qinghe had no airs, so it was easy to get together.

The Su family didn't stop the children from playing together. If these children are promising, they might be their children's help in the future.

Just like the current assistants of the two Su Jianjun brothers are the children of the servants of the Su family. They grew up together, and even the enlightenment was a piece of enlightenment.

The family didn't say this, and the children didn't care at all. Even Su Qingzhao and the older ones had their own playmates.

Usually, if I come back, I will invite them to play basketball together, which is also very good.

Just like now, Su Qinghe is pulling a bunch of children. The youngest of these children is older than Su Qinghe, and the younger ones are sleepy right now, so they went back to sleep with their parents.

"Miss, what are you going to do?" A child looked at the darkness in front of him, a little scared.

Su Qinghe frowned, "Just call me by my name after I've said it."

The other servants can't stop calling Su Qinghe, but she doesn't like these children who are similar to her to call her that, it always makes her feel weird.

The child knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he quickly changed his words, "Then where are we going, Qing He?"

Only then did Su Qinghe nodded in satisfaction, pointing to the garden in front of her, as if she wanted to conquer this place.

"Our task today is to hang lanterns here."

She deliberately asked the servants to take away the previous lamp during the day, and refused to let them replace it with a new one, just for tonight.

After finishing speaking, she waved her big hand to signal her brothers to lift up the lantern.

The red lanterns in two large cardboard boxes were all small lanterns. They were already hung up by servants during the day, but Su Qinghe suddenly had a whim and wanted to hang them by herself.

But she didn't make a decision by herself, but went to discuss with her brothers first, and made sure that they would follow, so Su Qing was relieved.

She just went to her friends to ask if they would like to come together at night, except for a few timid ones, almost all of these children came.

The oldest child here is already in high school, and the youngest, Su Qinghe, is already in the first grade.

"Hanging lanterns for the Spring Festival special operation, I announce that it will officially begin." Su Qinghe imitated the referee, and said with style.

Although Su Qinghe asked people to remove all the nearby lights, he was worried about how many children, but they didn't remove them all, and he could still see the road clearly.

A group of children were also infected by Su Qinghe, and they all went to get lanterns and hung them on the trees.

Some of the young ones were too short to reach them, so the older children helped them to pick them up.

The hanging is not random, in order to prevent the wind and rain from damaging the lamp, someone specially made a cover, put the lantern in the cover, and then close the cover.

Each lantern will shine, it is small and cute in the hand, and everyone is not far away, and they all fix one place together before going down.

And where they didn't see, someone secretly watched the actions of these children quietly.

This is also a point of reassurance for Su Qinghe. She knows that someone will protect them secretly, so she is not afraid.

The Su family's garden looks huge, but with so many children coming together, it will be hung up soon.

A few older children thought they were naive at first, but later on they played the most vigorously.

Because some trees are tall, the covers are also hung high, and a child as old as Su Qinghe can't hang them at all.

On the contrary, these older children were eager to try, and even took off their coats and climbed up. At the back, Su Qinghe and the others had no chance of hanging up, and they all let the older children take it to the competition.

Each person has five lanterns, and whoever hangs them up first wins. Of course, the contestants are all children about Su Qingzhao's age.

All of a sudden, the sound of cheering sounded in the garden one after another, and the children who failed to compete shouted vigorously below.

They all clenched their fists and looked up at the figure on the tree. They were both worried and excited, worried that they would fall, but they also found it interesting.

The movement of the garden also attracted many adults. They had heard that the little lady had activities at night, and they specifically refused to let them hang up the lanterns. It turned out that it was for this reason.

But they didn't get too close. The children can play together, but they can't get too close. No matter how good the host is, they can't break the rules.

There are also children with them inside, and everyone stands in the corner without disturbing the children's play.

I also heard the news from the kitchen. They have already arranged a shift. Now they are going to cook supper. They heard that the children took off their coats and competed in the back. They added a pot of brown sugar and ginger soup. After they finished playing, they would drink a bowl Drive away the cold.

When it was over, it was already half an hour later, and the originally dark garden was now illuminated by lanterns, which was very festive and glowing red.

When Steward Su heard that the children had come back, he hurriedly ordered the kitchen to bring over ginger soup, and poured a bowl of ginger soup for the children first.

All the children were not spared, and almost everyone drank it with a frown, even if brown sugar was added, it couldn't cover the hot taste of ginger soup.

Su Qinghe knew that she couldn't escape, she pinched her nose and frowned, raised her head and took a big gulp into her mouth.

But this bowl of ginger soup has a substantial portion, and it takes three consecutive mouthfuls to finish it.

Some children who couldn't stand the taste of ginger soup, saw Su Qinghe drinking it like this, followed suit and poured it like this.

At the end of the drink, almost all the children breathed out with their mouths open. It was too spicy and unbearable.

Fortunately, in addition to ginger soup, there is also pumpkin ball soup, which is Su Qinghe's favorite sweet soup.

She just drank a bowl of ginger soup and now she can't drink too much. She filled a small bowl and drank it in small sips.

The children circled around, without the adults around, and with the feeling of playing in the garden just now, it was much easier to sit together.

Everyone chatted together quickly, and after sitting down, Su Qinghe lost her lively appearance in the garden, and became much quieter.

Most of the time, she heard from others that the children who sat with her were all children of about the same age.

These children are young, and their parents are usually busy, so they seldom go out to play. What they talk about most is what happened in school.

According to what they said, they should all go to the same school, and the most talked about is winter homework.

"My mother asked me to do four pages a day before I could play." A child had a bitter face, obviously these homework made him very distressed.

"I'm even worse, I have to do one more paper."

"Our teacher also assigned compositions. There are a total of twenty. When will this be written?"

After hearing this, Su Qinghe nodded approvingly. The winter vacation was short, and except for the two days of rest during the Chinese New Year, she had to write [-] essays almost every day.

Every teacher feels that they have very little assignments, and it will be finished soon after writing a little every day, but if each of them assigns a little, then the whole day is spent on homework.

But there is something different, looking at the others triumphantly, "I have finished my homework."

The children were shocked and looked at him in disbelief.

"How do you write so fast?"

"Is it copied?"

Su Qinghe was also a little surprised. Hearing what they said just now, there was not a lot of homework, and he did it so quickly.

"I know why he writes so fast." Someone raised his hand and shouted.

"Why?" Someone immediately asked.

Su Qinghe also looked over curiously.

"Because he didn't pass the exam at the end of the semester, his parents beat him up and made him not finish his homework and not let him go out."

The child who was proud just now, was exposed by his companions, and immediately blushed, unable to speak.

"Hmph, that was just a momentary mistake of mine, and I will definitely pass the exam next time." The man blushed and spoke stiffly.

"I know," the child who spoke just now nodded like a little old man, "You just didn't perform well. You accidentally fell asleep during the exam and missed the exam."

Su Qinghe was shocked, she was still able to fall asleep during the exam, she must be too worried.

"Did you not sleep well the night before?" Su Qinghe was curious, otherwise how could it be possible to fall asleep during the exam.

Being watched by Su Qinghe, the child seemed to be even more embarrassed, and he explained hesitantly: "I reviewed too late the day before, and I almost woke up late the next day. During the exam, I really couldn't hold back and wanted to sleep for a while before getting up to do it. did not expect--"

Unexpectedly, I overslept. I heard from my classmates that the teacher called him several times, but he didn't wake up.

Su Qinghe couldn't help laughing, she didn't expect there to be such a capable person.

This night, several children kept eating snacks, fearing that they would not finish eating, someone would come in to add more from time to time, until the end everyone couldn't eat anymore.

It is easy to get sleepy after eating and drinking enough, and the older children are still very energetic, and have even sat there to play.

The Su family's habit of keeping watch at night is that they usually don't go to rest until after breakfast the next day, but if they can't hold on, they can go to rest directly.

However, this day is rare in a year, and everyone usually stays up until the next morning before going to rest.

Su Qinghe thought about it, and it was boring to talk all the time. She thought of the flying chess blanket she asked her family to make for her before.

But she hasn't played it a few times, so it just so happens that she can take it out to play this time.

There are not only flying chess, but also checkers and other small games, which are more than enough for a few small ones to play.

But as soon as the flying chess blanket was brought in, almost everyone's eyes were glued to it and they couldn't bear to take it off.

Su Qinghe looked at everyone's eyes, and then remembered that this game is not as popular as it is in later generations.

Even the one Su Qinghe is playing now was redesigned by herself. She didn't know if there were flying chess now, so she drew a picture and asked her father to ask someone to customize it.

Even the dice are custom-made by someone, which attracts everyone as soon as it appears.

Like Su Qingzhao and the others who had played with their sister earlier, it was fun at the beginning, and it became meaningless if they played a few more times.

But in view of the freshness, everyone crowded together during the first few rounds of play, watching a few children play.

Su Qinghe didn't participate, she watched from the side and told them the rules of the game.

After seeing a few older children who also wanted to play, but she only had one blanket, she thought about it.

"Let me teach you how to play the heart game."

"what game is this?"

"Is it a heart attack?"

Su Qinghe explained to them that this is a game to test eyesight. After carefully explaining the rules to them, Su Qinghe suddenly discovered something very serious.

They have no cards.
