Siheyuan: Give me incredible understanding but not knowledge

Chapter 42 New Year's Eve
  In the middle courtyard, everyone eats with an open stomach these days.

I wanted to stuff everything into my stomach, but Silly Zhu didn’t cook many dishes, so he prepared six!
  At the end of the meal, even the soup on the plate was dipped in white steamed buns.

After eating, everyone should go back to their own homes.

Slowly for a while, the sky darkened.

The lights in many houses have been turned on. Lin Jiajun, Xu Damao, He Yuyu and Shazhu couple!
  Put away the bowls and chopsticks. These bowls and chopsticks are found in every household.

They need to be returned after cleaning.

After finishing everything, Lin Jiajun looked at the anxious Silly Zhu, smiled and said.

"Let's go, Damao! If there is still rain, go back to your room!"

"Ah? Don't you have to have a wedding ceremony? Don't you have to have a wedding ceremony when you get married?"

He Yuyu looked at Shazhu and Qin Huairu with some pity. Looking at their excited little rosy faces, He Yuyu looked very much looking forward to it.

Silly Zhu's face turned dark when he heard He Yuyu's words.

If this wasn't a big day, He Yuyu would have to be scolded.

"What are we doing in the wedding ceremony? It's just some teasing words. If you want to tease your sister-in-law every day, that's fine!"

"How can this be done! My brother will definitely not let you do it the next day!"

He Yuyu said it with regret, and Xu Damao burst out laughing when he heard it.

Silly Zhu had a dark face, but soon the others went out.

A few days passed in a blink of an eye, and there were lights and colorful firecrackers outside.

There were two pieces of red couplet paper placed on Lin Jiajun's desk. Lin Jiajun dipped some ink and quickly wrote a few words with a sharp pen.

When writing couplets, European regular script, Yan style regular script, running script, official script, etc. are mostly used.

But generally, most of the Spring Festival couplets are written in regular script!

Lin Jiajun's calligraphy has been understood by everyone after seeing a lot of calligraphy in the past few years, but it is also a font without a name.

But I prefer the calmness of the European style, with a touch of bold style.

A little more free.

Many people in the yard knew that Lin Jiajun was good at calligraphy, so after he finished writing this couplet, the third uncle happily left the back room.

Yi Zhonghai stepped forward and first said Happy Spring Festival to Lin Jiajun!

Then he put up the Spring Festival couplets he needed to write on, then took two eggs from his pocket and placed them in a basin aside.

After a while, Yi Zhonghai also left with the couplet, and others came up one after another.

First, he put down two eggs, and then waited for Lin Jiajun to write a couplet.

The queue is very long, and many people from other courtyards also come to Lin Jiajun to write couplets. For these people, it is definitely a face-saving thing to get a couplet written by Lin Jiajun during the Chinese New Year.

After the third uncle left, he returned home happily with this couplet.

The third aunt looked at the smiling third uncle and said to him incomprehensively.

"You're not bad at writing calligraphy. Why do you have to give Lin Jiajun two eggs? Why don't you write it yourself and let's eat two more eggs during the Chinese New Year?"

"A woman's view!"

The third uncle said disdainfully, and then the third uncle also opened his mouth to explain.

"I gave four eggs and even wrote the Spring Festival couplets."

"Ah You……"

"What are you talking about? Listen to me!"

The third uncle then smiled mysteriously, and then said to the third aunt with a smile.

"This couplet is a treasure. Let's use it up! Peel it off completely and I'll take it to school. At least I'll get two yuan from Li Xingguo and Wang Tiejun!"                                                                                                                I just like this kind of good words!”

"The money in Lin Jiajun's hands is all money, but these people don't know it!"

"Really!"

The third aunt was shocked when she heard what the third uncle said.

She didn't expect that she could make money by writing, let alone that Lin Jiajun's handwriting could be valuable.

When she was young, she had heard a lot of storytellers talking about scholars, and stories about a word worth a fortune, but those people were all in their late teens.

Lin Jiajun, who is so young, has really never heard of it.

When it was almost noon, Lin Jiajun carried two large basins of eggs and walked towards Shazhu's house.

When they arrived at Shazhu's house, Qin Huairu was cleaning up when she suddenly saw Lin Jiajun carrying two large basins of eggs and was a little surprised.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Jiajun handed over the egg, and he was a little unsure whether he should take it or not.

"Silly pillar! Silly pillar!"

Silly Zhu turned around and said with a smile.

"Every year at this time, Jiajun writes Spring Festival couplets and sends so many eggs to others. Now he and his cat can't finish them all. He ate them at our house during the Chinese New Year month."

"Xu Damao will probably bring some things over later, so we can just cook them together while I cook."

"what……"

"Oh, that's good!"

Qin Huairu was a little shocked at first. She had never seen such a thing before!

I also think this kind of thing is a bit strange, but it seems reasonable.

But I don’t have to worry about eating eggs this month, which is great!
  In fact, it was Silly Zhu who brought up this matter, but it only happened two years ago. Xu Damao's parents did not do this at home before.

This year, Silly Zhu estimated that Xu Damao's lazy character should be the same as Lin Jiajun's.

After a while, Xu Damao came over as expected, bringing a lot of sausages, about one or two kilograms!

He also came over with some white noodles.

After entering the door and seeing Lin Jiajun's two large basins of eggs, he immediately beamed.

He Yuyu sat in front of two large basins of eggs and said to Xu Damao with a smile.

"Da Mao, Brother Jiajun is awesome!"

"Awesome, this is more than last year! My parents are not at home this year, so I thought that like Jiajun, we would all make do with each other and eat better in the next month!"

"Silly Zhu, the rest is up to you!"

"Hehe, Xu Damao, let me tell you, you are really blessed. When my skills are good enough, I will get some fresh meat and add Jiajun's eggs."

"If I eat the same thing this month, it means that I, Silly Zhu, have no ability!"

Silly Zhu said to everyone present with a little pride.

Today’s Chinese New Year meal is dumplings stuffed with pork and cabbage, served with a few delicious dishes!
  With a bottle of fine Fenjiu, this New Year's Eve will be spent at least more than most people in this courtyard!

During this period, Lin Jiajun also received red envelopes from the two of them!

In Silly Zhu’s words, Lin Jiajun just turned 18 this year!

He has to give it to him one year after he officially becomes an adult. After this year, he won't give it to him even if he wants the fool.

Also happy was He Yuyu, everyone gave her a red envelope!
  A happy new year has passed.

And in the dark night, three short figures were walking around in the yard!
  Looking at the Spring Festival couplets in his hands with joy.

　I sorted out the story line, the update is a little late.
