There is also my sister-in-law, and their whole family is here, including her daughter-in-law and grandson.
What made Li Le feel most incredible was that the young master actually came and brought Li Le's two uncles and cousins with him.
Of course, there are also two daughters-in-law and a son-in-law, including grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Li Le's younger brother is the fourth among five brothers and sisters, and is only older than his sister-in-law.
But he's not much older, twelve years older than Li Le's father.
Li Le took a rough look at the people in this room, and found that there were at least sixty or seventy people in the room. It could be said that they were all here.
It's not right to say that, because Li Le's uncle has not come back. If he comes back, there will be more than a dozen more people.
"Li Qiang, Li Le."
"Uncle."
Uncle Li Kewei, my younger son, is fourteen years older than Li Le and is thirty-six this year.
Li Kewei: "Have you finished celebrating the New Year?"
Li Qiang: "Well! I just came back."
After Li Qiang finished speaking, he patted his pocket, and there was a splashing sound, filled with peanuts, melon seeds and candies.
"That's great."
Li Le curled his lips and said, "Where are you now? I've already come back and let him go twice."
Yes, both Li Le and Li Qiang came back twice.
The first time I came here to pay my New Year greetings, and the second time I came back specially to put it up.
Of course, it's not just the two of them who go home to put these peanuts and melon seeds, but everyone.
Although these things are not valuable, they are given by elders and cannot be thrown away halfway.
"By the way, uncle, why are you back this year?"
Hearing Li Le's question, Li Kewei said helplessly: "Your wife said that she would come back this year to celebrate the New Year."
Although Li Kewei didn't say it explicitly, Li Le knew very well that it was Xiao Nai who had the final say whether Xiaoye's family would come back or not.
Not coming back to celebrate the New Year in the past was also Xiao Nai’s meaning. Coming back to celebrate the New Year this year is also Xiao Nai’s meaning.
If it weren't for Xiao Nai, I guess Xiao Ye's family would come back every year to celebrate the New Year.
There is no way, the young man's family is the richest among the five brothers and sisters. The young grandma has always looked down on the eldest brother and several older sisters.
I guess someone knew from someone that Li Le was rich now, so he decided to come back to celebrate the New Year this year.
How to say it! It is not very appropriate to say that she dislikes poverty and loves wealth, because whether it is Li Le's family or the families of several aunts, although they are not as good as Mr. Li Le's family, they are not much worse.
My family only has a little bit of money, but is not particularly rich.
Therefore, in Li Le's understanding, Xiao Nai is the kind of person who likes to climb high branches, which is more appropriate.
But this has little to do with Li Le, because this is a matter of his grandfather's generation.
Isn’t it also very helpless if you don’t look at the little uncle?
"Dad." At this moment, a little girl of thirteen or fourteen years old ran over.
"Come here." The uncle waved.
After the little girl came over, the uncle said: "Quickly say hello to your eldest and second brothers."
The uncle, the eldest and second brother, are arranged according to this, and the children of several aunts' families are not included.
In fact, it's normal. After all, the children in my aunt's family are not named Li, so they can only call them cousin.
The little girl smiled and shouted quickly: "Big brother and second brother."
"Yeah!" Li Le nodded, then rubbed the little girl's head.
"Second brother, your hair is messed up." The little girl quickly smoothed her hair.
"It's okay. I'll ask your sister-in-law to clean it up for you later." Li Le said with a smile.
"Rourou." Another little girl ran over.
Of course she came to see Li Rourou, her cousin Li Le.
But the girl who just ran over is also Li Le's cousin, the daughter of Li Le's uncle.
She is two years older than Li Rourou, about fifteen or sixteen years old. This is not the point. The point is that this girl's name is the same as Li Le.
It's just one more word. Yes, this girl's name is Li Lele. When she goes out with Li Le, everyone says they are brother and sister.
"Uncle, eldest brother, second brother." Li Lele shouted quickly after running over.
"Lele, what high school are you going to this year?" Li Qiang asked.
"Brother, I'm in my second year of high school now."
"Not bad, you'll catch up with me soon." Li Qiang touched his nose and said.
Li Qiang's words left everyone speechless. What do you mean by catching up with him soon?
But he was right, because Li Qiang graduated from high school, and Li Lele only had to finish high school to catch up with him.
It's just that Li Lele definitely didn't just finish high school, she probably graduated from college at least, because this girl has good academic performance.
"Is Lele high above the ground now?" Li Le asked at this time.
"Yes, second brother."
Digao is the best high school in Li Le's city, and its full name is the No. 1 senior high school in the city.
Yes, the first high school in the region, this is not the first high school in the city.
The names of the two high schools look similar, but the word "digao" is added to the word "region".
You must know that it is not easy to get to a higher level. Only by studying better can you get to a higher level.
There are nine counties and one city in the city. Digao only admits the top 200 students from each county and the top 1,000 students from the city each year.
Of course, this number does not include all those who have been admitted, because some people go to different places and feel that they are far away from home.
Therefore, the number of students admitted each year is only about 2,000, but it can also be seen from this that only students who study well are admitted.
Similarly, Digao's admission rate is the highest in the city every year, with 90% exceeding the first-class score.
Li Le didn't go to Digao back then. If he had gone, he would probably have gotten into a better school.
There is no way, the best teachers in the city are all in Digao.
"Not bad, I will definitely be able to get into a good school in the future."
"Second brother, it's not that easy! As long as I can get into the school that second brother goes to."
"It must be possible."
Although Li Le said so, he didn't have high hopes.
You must know that the university Li Le went to is not an ordinary university. Although it is not the top university, it is still 985!
Although Digao’s admission rate is high, not many, not even a hundred, pass the 985 exam every year.
Unless this girl enters the top 100 in the whole grade, in that case there is still some hope.
"Thank you, second brother, for your encouragement. I will definitely work hard."
"Um!"
"Then let's go play, second brother."
"Go!"
Li Lele took Li Rourou and ran away.
After the two girls left, the uncle said: "This girl is good at studying. She can compete with Xiaole back then."
Li Qiang scratched his head at this time and said: "Did I give my name by mistake? If my name also has the word "乐", can I also go to college?"
The uncle curled his lips and said: "You can pull him down, Lucky is also leading Lekai, and he doesn't even reach the second line."
The Lucai my uncle is talking about, his full name is Li Lucai, he is the son of Uncle Datang and Li Lele’s brother. He took the college entrance examination this summer and finally went to a junior college.
This is also related to the fact that the college entrance examination scores in Dayu Province are too high. Those who are in the second line of Dayu Province may be able to take the first line in other provinces.
If you are unable to pass two exams in Henan Province, your test scores will be satisfactory if you pass two exams in other provinces. There is no way, Dayu Province has at least one million candidates every year, while the country only has about 13 million candidates every year.
In other words, Everbright Henan Province accounts for more than one-third of the national candidates.
The most speechless thing is that Yu Province does not even have a 985 university, and there is only one 211 university in the whole province.
Therefore, the college entrance examination in Dayu Province is too complicated. The admission score of the only 211 university is higher than that of many 985 universities. Can you believe this.
"Okay." Li Qiang didn't know what to say.
"Happy New Year to my aunt, Happy New Year to my aunt!"
"Happy New Year Xiaole!"
"Happy New Year to my second aunt! Happy New Year to my second aunt!"
"Happy New Year Xiaole!"
"Happy New Year, little master! Happy New Year, little tits!"
"Happy New Year."
As for my aunt and uncle, there is no need to ask, because they have already been asked, more than once.
This time the greeting came, Li Le felt a little thirsty. There was nothing he could do, it was too much.
Not to mention the old man’s generation, there are fourteen people in Dad Li’s generation, including those from my aunt’s family.
Yes, apart from his father, there are two brothers. Whether it is my aunt's family or my father's family, there are three children.
In addition, there are seven or eight people of his generation who are older than him, and the rest are younger than him.
Fortunately, Li Le's family is relatively large, otherwise there would be no place for so many people to stay, and they would probably have to stay outside.
It was busy at lunch. Li Le originally thought that his oversized table was a bit too big and he might not use it.
Now he knows that even if there are two more, they probably won't be able to sit down.
But it doesn't matter, there are a few tables upstairs, just move them down. They are all removable and easier to move.
Because there were so many people, both kitchens were used today.
Of course, there are many people cooking today, and several of Li Le's aunts and aunts are helping.
As for the children, they are all outside at this time, setting off small fireworks outside. Fortunately, they bought more, otherwise it would not be enough.
As for the fireworks barrels that were set off on the night of the 30th, they were piled up in a pile on the west side of the villa. They will just be cleared out after the New Year.
Of course, the happiest people were probably the old man and the old lady. They didn’t close their mouths all morning.
Red envelopes were given out one by one, and I don’t know how many were given out.
But the old man didn't care at all, because Li Le gave him a lot of red envelopes.
Of course, the same goes for Li's father and Li's mother. Li Le also prepared a lot of red envelopes for them.
The money in each red envelope is not much, all is one thousand, which is a lot in rural areas.
You must know that in previous years, the maximum red envelope was 200, but this year it suddenly increased five times.
At around eleven o'clock, Li Qiang took a group of cousins upstairs to move tables.
After a while, there were five more tables in the living room downstairs that could seat about ten people.
With these five tables, there is enough room to sit down.
"Uncle and aunt." Li Le came to Cheng's father and Cheng's mother.
"Xiao Le, come on, sit here." Dad Cheng patted the sofa next to him.
"Um!"
After sitting down, Li Le asked: "How are you doing, uncle? I have a lot of family members, right?"
"Many, too many."
Father Cheng nodded enviously.
Yes, it’s just envy. You have to know that it’s Father Cheng and Mother Cheng who have no relatives.
Of course, this is related to the city's family planning. Both Cheng's father and Cheng's mother are only children.
After the old people above are gone, they will also have no relatives.
So there are only three people in their family.
The same goes for the Chinese New Year, but one thing is that there is no need to visit relatives during the Chinese New Year.
This is why Cheng's mother keeps urging Cheng Fei to get married.
Because Cheng Fei got married, there would be one more person in the family. If he had children, the number would increase again.
Also, there is no family planning anymore. If they have more children, Cheng’s father and Cheng’s mother can have a family full of children and grandchildren.
Dad Cheng is rich! Even if Cheng Fei gave birth to ten or eight children, he could still afford it.
"Xiao Le, I didn't expect there to be so many people in your family." Cheng's mother also said with emotion.
"My uncle didn't come back this year, otherwise there would be even more people with their whole family."
"Your uncle?" Dad Cheng asked.
"Yes! My uncle, their family now consists of more than ten people."
"Hiss!" Dad Cheng took a breath and said, "If that's the case, don't you have hundreds of people in your family?"
Li Le nodded and said, "About that! I don't know the exact number."
Li Le really doesn't know unless he does the math one by one.
Because this is just the beginning.
Among his generation, Li Qiang is the oldest. It is estimated that if he waits another ten or eight years, even if it does not double, it will not be much different.
Yes, there are too many in Li Le's generation.
There were fourteen in his father's generation, and of these fourteen, each family had at least three, and as many as five or six.
In other words, there are as many as fifty people in Li Le's generation, not to mention how many children these fifty people will have.
Just getting married will add about fifty people. If each family has a few more children, it will be too many.
It’s simply unimaginable. Let’s put it this way, if they all come here ten years later, Li Le probably won’t be able to stay in this villa.
"You guys are really a big family!"
To be honest, Dad Cheng was very envious, which was why he agreed to stay for the New Year.
He just wanted to see what the big family was like during the New Year. He saw now that it was not only lively but also lively.
Yes, he didn't think it was noisy. He felt that so many people were just lively and had nothing to do with noisy.
After lunch, everyone left, except Ye Qi.
The next day is the third day of junior high school, and I have to visit relatives at home.
There are only a few aunts on Li Le's mother's side, and they don't need to leave. It's not that they don't have any contact with each other, but they are all not at home.
The eldest aunt, the second aunt, and the third aunt are in Zhongzhou City, and the fourth aunt is in Hainan. They did not come back for the Chinese New Year this year.
Then the only relatives who have to go are a few aunts' houses. As for my master's house, there is no need to go there at all.
Because my master’s home is in the city, more than a hundred kilometers away from here, they are not allowed to go there every year.
When going to several aunts' houses, Li's father should have taken Li Le and his brothers there, but this year Cheng's father and Cheng's mother were here, so the matter of visiting relatives was left to Li Qiang and Li Le.
Of course, there are also my sister-in-law and children, including Li Qingcheng and Nie Weiwei, who must go.
Whether it's my nephew, Li Qingcheng or Nie Weiwei, they are all in their first year.
In the first year, you have to go to the elders' house to visit relatives, because there are red envelopes in the first year.
This is not about asking for red envelopes, but about blessings from elders. Of course, this is talking about close relatives. (End of chapter)
