Chapter 560 Red Envelope
Chapter 560 Red Envelope
Wei Wei looked at Xiao Xuemu curiously, "Are we going to worship our ancestors first?"
Hearing this, Xiao Xuemu was a little confused, "Ancestor worship?"
Wei Wei nodded, "Yes, don't you need to offer sacrifices to your ancestors before eating?"
Xiao Xuemu has never done this before. His family members are worried that he, an unfilial son, would do such a thing.
Furthermore, due to the special circumstances in recent years, these things were done secretly, so he was exposed to very little.
However, Xiao Xuemu thought of Wei Wei's real family, who seemed to be gone, and asked:
"Do you need to prepare some for your parents and family?"
But he must be careful when doing it later and must not make any mistakes.
At this moment, Xiao Xuemu's mind was full of the procedures his parents and grandparents had prepared for those things, and he was hoping that there would be no mistakes.
Wei Wei was stunned when she heard this, “Forget it, after all, the world is different and I can’t receive it.
Even my mother said that this kind of custom might have almost disappeared by their generation.
Because when it comes to our generation, if we are asked to prepare these things, we may fail at the cooking step, let alone the rules of the New Year’s Eve dinner.
The fact that we didn’t serve spicy hot pot, snail noodles and milk tea to the New Year’s Eve dinner may be the greatest respect we can show.
Although there is a firecracker session before the New Year’s Eve dinner, setting off firecrackers in your space will pollute the environment here too much, so forget it.
If I do it outside, it seems a bit disturbing to others and it’s also a bit hard to explain. After all, my firecrackers are definitely different from yours, so let’s just forget it.
Since there are no such procedures, let’s just start eating.”
What Wei Wei didn't say was that she had never done these things after her family members passed away, because she had no such awareness and didn't really believe in those things.
But her aunt will definitely help with it. If there really are souls or something like that, they won't be short of money.
Hearing this, Xiao Xuemu also breathed a sigh of relief. After all, he really didn't know how to do this.
Moreover, he heard from his grandfather and others that this thing cannot be done carelessly, so he was afraid of making mistakes.
It seems that he still needs to learn from his grandfather and others in the future. Since Wei Wei is a time traveler, he now believes in these things very much.
Since Wei Wei's family members are gone and Wei Wei doesn't understand these things, then these are his responsibility.
When the meal was ready, Wei Wei immediately started eating. To be honest, she was really a little hungry.
Since living in the space, I have eaten lunch earlier and usually come out to sweep the snow after lunch.
After sweeping the snow today, I stayed in the space for a long time because I had to prepare side dishes, and I also spent a lot of time at the Youth League Institute.
It should be said that she was a little hungry when she went to the Youth League Institute. Who knew that the Youth League Institute would turn the New Year's Eve dinner into such a good state.
Now she was so hungry that she felt like she could swallow a cow.
Wei Wei was very satisfied with the meal. She didn’t know if it was because she was too hungry or because the food was so delicious, maybe both.
After dinner, Xiao Xuemu took out seven thick red envelopes from somewhere and stuffed them into Wei Wei's hands.
"This is from my dad, this is from my mom, this is from my uncle and aunt, this is from my grandparents, and this is from you. Keep all these New Year's money."
His mother and his aunt got the news from somewhere that in Wei Wei's place, they had to receive red envelopes twice.
Therefore, after knowing that he and Wei Wei would be spending the New Year here this year, she transferred a lot of money and asked him to help.
Holding such a big bunch of red envelopes, Wei Wei didn't know what to say, but she was still a little touched.
Just looking at the thickness and weight of the red envelope, you can tell that there must be a lot of money inside.
Seeing so much money, Wei Wei couldn't hide the smile on her face.
"Then thank my uncles, aunts, grandparents and others for me."
Hearing this, Xiao Xuemu was stunned for a moment before reacting, "Okay."
He hadn't even spoken out all the drafts he had in mind yet, and he thought Wei Wei would refuse.
Therefore, he was still thinking about what kind of reason he could use to get Wei Wei to accept it, but he didn't expect Wei Wei to accept it so generously.
But considering Wei Wei's personality, it didn't seem strange. It was normal for her to accept it generously.
Wei Wei is the type of person who will accept anything given by others without any hesitation, as long as it is not particularly precious to the giver.
As soon as she arrived in the room, Wei Wei couldn't help but open the red envelope and take a look.
Each red envelope was worth one hundred yuan. Wei Wei was really shocked when she saw this.
If it were in later times, she wouldn't think a hundred dollars was a big deal, but this was over seventy years ago!
In this day and age, one hundred dollars is enough for a small family’s expenses for a year, and that’s enough to eat well and have enough.
Even though Xiao Xuemu's family is very rich, this amount of money is nothing to them, but the thought is still very meaningful.
But when she thought about why they gave her so much money, Wei Wei hesitated for a moment.
However, Wei Wei hesitated for a while. It was too early to talk about that now. There were still a few years left, and everything would work out in the end.
After eating the New Year’s Eve dinner, it’s time to stay up all night. As for staying up all night, Xiao Xuemu and Wei Wei gave up directly.
There is no distinction between day and night in space, it is always daytime.
When they sleep in their space, they draw all the curtains tightly so that they can feel the darkness and fall asleep, so there is no need to stay up all night.
As for going outside to celebrate the New Year's Eve, it didn't seem necessary for just the two of them.
Therefore, Xiao Xuemu had no intention of staying up all night to celebrate the New Year.
