The two children had been on the heated bed in their room.
They must have heard their mother’s voice, because they quickly scrambled off the bed and ran out.
And there she was—their mother was back.
They immediately threw themselves at Fu Mingxue. "Mom!"
Fu Mingxue was overjoyed.
She immediately swept the two children who’d run up to her into her arms, planting a kiss on each of their little cheeks.
"Mom missed you so much!"
"We missed you too, Mom!"
The two children were ecstatic.
"Mom, we got so much lucky money this year. We’ll give it all to you in a minute."
Qin Keke’s words made Fu Mingxue incredibly happy. "Okay, Mom will save it for you."
"I’ll give my lucky money to Mom too."
Fu Mingxue accepted it all without hesitation. "Alright, Mom will save it all for you."
Mrs. Fu: ...?
’Why are these two handing over their lucky money all of a sudden?’
’They wouldn’t let me touch it earlier.’
The twins dashed back into the house. When they emerged, each was holding a large red paper packet.
"Here, Mom."
The brother and sister each handed one over without the slightest bit of reluctance.
Fu Mingxue accepted them with a broad smile.
She gave them a squeeze. They were quite thick.
"This is a lot!"
The little girl immediately said, "Lots and lots."
She started counting on her fingers. "Great-Grandpa, Great-Grandma, Grandpa, Grandma, my other Grandma, and lots and lots of other people—"
Mrs. Fu chimed in, "The rest of the Qin family gave some, which Wenhao brought back. His older brother even gave ten yuan."
Of course, Qin Wenhao had also given ten yuan each to Qin Yue and Qin Ruqiao.
"—a hundred yuan in total!"
’I’d never seen kids get this much lucky money before.’
’When they gave it last year, I was completely shocked.’
’After all, back home, who gave more than five or ten cents?’
’The most anyone ever gave was fifty cents.’
