Wang Can thought of Li Yuan's gift of red rope-headed flowers to Miaomiao before. After thinking about it, he opened all the red envelopes and put ten copper plates in each.
"Brother Junzi, will you give me ten cents for mine?"
"No, just give us three pennies each. My two cousins know that I can't make money, and I don't even have land at home, so I have to rely on you to support me. In fact, you can give me two pennies. It's just casual. Guys."
When Wang Can heard the words, I rely on you to support him, he glanced at Li Jun angrily.
When this guy said this, he was really not blushing or out of breath.
I don’t know who it was, but when she got the charcoal bonus money from her brother-in-law, she eagerly gave it to her.
Yes, since he said San Wen, just San Wen. Anyway, they are different from Sister Yuan.
Outsiders knew that Sister Yuan had the twenty taels she had received when she was divorced. She later made some money by setting up a stall, and later received 20% of the dividend from selling charcoal. In addition, the vegetables she grew in winter also belonged to her.
Even if her money is useful now, others won't think it's a big deal if she gives her more.
And she and Brother Junzi have little income and are a "poor" couple.
It’s normal to give less!
If you give too much, people will think that they are making a fool of themselves.

According to the rules in Liuyun County, a daughter-in-law under the age of thirty should return to her parents' home on the second day of the Lunar New Year.
For those over thirty years old, the third day of the Lunar New Year is the day to return to their parents’ home.
The oldest person in the Li family's old house is Li Duo's daughter-in-law Liu Mei, who is twenty-eight this year.
Therefore, in the usually bustling Li family's old house, on the second day of the Lunar New Year, there were only Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Wang and her two sons and daughter-in-law.
Wang Can had no family to go back to, and his uncle was with them now, so he came to the old house to help on the second day of junior high school.
When she arrived at the old house with more than a dozen red envelopes in her arms, sisters Li Shu and Li Lin had already returned with their men and children.
As a person who works outside all year round, Li Jun can establish relationships very quickly if he wants to get close to others.
No, as soon as he entered the yard and saw the children running around, he went into the main room and took the initiative to greet his two cousins-in-law, and then asked enthusiastically about their family's situation, the harvest in the fields, etc.
Wang Can, on the other hand, counted the children in the courtyard and saw seven.
The older ones looked like five or six years old and the younger ones were about two years old. They clapped their hands to attract their attention.
After all the children came over, she took out a pile of red envelopes, and then said in a loud voice: "Children, all line up and come over, tell the fourth aunt what your name is and who your mother is, and then the aunt will distribute the envelopes to you." Is the annual red envelope good?"
For children who already have the concept of money, apart from food and new clothes, nothing makes them happier than giving red envelopes.
The children who were running around in the courtyard began to line up according to age under Wang Can's guidance.
The eldest one was a girl. She was lively and cheerful and said directly to Wang Can: "Happy New Year to my fourth sister-in-law. My name is Wu Meifang. I am six years old this year. My mother is Li Shu."
Wang Can smiled and nodded, then took out two red seals.
"The younger one was given by my aunt, and the older one was given by your aunt. She is in Fucheng now and will be back in a few days. When you see her then, remember to say thank you!"
A six-year-old child is already sensible, not to mention that as the eldest sister, there are several younger siblings.
After hearing this, Mei Fang nodded repeatedly: "Yes, I will take care of it. Just don't worry, Fourth Auntie."
After she happily took the red envelope and went to her mother, the second one also imitated the sister in front and said: "Happy New Year to my fourth sister-in-law. My name is Qiu Yi, and the one behind me is my twin sister, Qiu Jing. We She is half a year younger than sister Mei Fang, and her mother is Li Lin."
Wang Can did not expect that Li Lin would give birth to twins for the first time, and they were twins.
Hearing this, she looked at Qiu Jing, who was greeting her with New Year greetings, and hurriedly handed over the four red envelopes, while not forgetting to repeat what she had just said to Mei Fang.
After the two children from Li Lin's family passed by, the next two were boys, and both were children of Li Shu, one was five years old and the other was four years old.
Wang Can couldn't help but be a little shocked. After co-author Li Shu got married, did she keep having children?
The next three children were all only one year apart, almost not long after the birth of the child, they had another child.
No wonder she gave birth to four children just a few years after getting married.
No wonder she is obviously not as old as her Yuan Niang sister, but she looks several years older.
Before Wang Can finished handing out the red envelopes, sisters Li Lin and Li Shu looked at each other after hearing the news. After she finished handing out the red envelopes to the children, they stepped forward and pulled her into the house.
As soon as the two sat down on the kang, Li Shu took out the big red envelope from her arms, looked at Wang Can and asked, "Is this red envelope really given by Li Yuan?"
When Mrs. Ling heard her daughter call Li Yuan that, she patted her back unhappily.
"No big or small, what Li Yuan? That's your sister!"
Wang Can didn't quite understand what Li Shu meant, but when he gave the red envelope before, he had already made plans to help ease the relationship, so he nodded decisively when he heard the words.
"Yes! Before Sister Yuan went to Fucheng, she was afraid that something would delay her and that she might not be able to come back in time for the New Year, so she wrapped it up in advance and asked me to help give it to her."
She said, taking out the other two from her arms and handing them to Ling.
"Auntie, this is the New Year's money that I gave to Miaomiao and Qingwei. I didn't take it out yesterday because our rule is that the second day of the Lunar New Year is the day to return to your parents' home. Although Sister Yuan and Li live at home, she You'd better tell me to give them to the second grade students together. They are not at home now, so you can help collect them first."
Li Lin and Li Shu looked at each other. After hearing Wang Can's reasonable explanation, they felt that it made sense, but was a little strange.
But if Li Yuan hadn't prepared this in advance, how could Wang Can, a seventeen-year-old girl with no parents to teach her, think so much?
So, this was given by Li Yuan, right?
Guess she had a conscience and didn't continue to be separated from them.
Otherwise, they won't be able to come when she gets married.
Even if they get scolded by their mothers later, they are still happy!
Thinking like this, the two sisters felt a lot better.
Sisters Li Lin and Li Shu don't like to see Li Yuan, but they still have a good impression of Wang Can.
They were in a good mood at this time and directly took Wang Can's hand. Li Shu asked: "Can Niang, Junzi has to take the scientific examination next, and the family will rely on you in the future. Do you have any plans?"
Li Lin on the side said: "Why don't we go and inquire in the next few days to see who has land for sale? It's not okay for us farmers who have no land."
Wang Can smiled and replied: "Let's not buy land for now. Brother Junzi wants to study, so he definitely won't have time to go to the fields. It's not realistic for me to do it alone. My sister told me before that after the New Year, we will Keep setting up the noodle stall.”
The two sisters Li Shu also heard that Li Yuan had set up the noodle stall to make money, even though they thought it was better for country people to have land.
But when I think about it, if Li Jun wants to study, all the work in the fields will depend on a little girl Wang Can. This is really not possible.
What's more, if you make money by setting up a stall, if you have money, are you afraid of losing land and food?
