Chapter 1490: It’s New Year

After Mengyu arranged everything, she returned to the backyard.

She went to check on Gu Dongxing again and found that his body was completely healed. Although he was still asleep, he was utilizing the medicine Mengyu gave him to repair his Dantian in his dreams.

Mengyu finally felt at ease.

Mengyu thought that after the incident on New Year’s Eve, the neighbors wouldn’t come to pay their New Year respects, and everything she prepared would go unused.

Anyway, even if some children came to pay respects, it would just be for fun and celebration, and Mengyu didn’t need to go out.

Fortunately, she had already asked Le Yin to prepare a lot of envelopes, not many, just one yuan each.

However, when the first group of children came to pay respects and received candies and red envelopes, they found that Mengyu’s house gave out delicious candies and red envelopes with one yuan, prompting more children to come by.

Mengyu forgot that in this era, red envelopes of one yuan each for children paying New Year respects were considered quite generous, as many people’s envelopes were just a few cents.

As a result, after finding out that they could get a one-yuan red envelope by going to Yard No. 6 for New Year greetings, many children naturally swarmed towards Yard No. 6.

Everyone laughed and played, shouting Happy New Year as they entered the yard, then ran off with the candies given by Qing Wen and the red envelopes given by Le Yin.

Some children even wanted to come for a second time, since the envelope was only one yuan. Le Yin didn’t stop them, but Qing Wen was sharp and noticed they had already received one, calling out: "Hey, hey, didn’t you come earlier?"

The children caught red-handed just scratched their heads awkwardly and laughed, saying, "I’m just bringing others," then turned to leave.

Mengyu suddenly thought of something and sent a message to Le Yin, who immediately shouted: "Anyone who sincerely says a few auspicious words can receive a second red envelope."

Those children initially thought they misheard, until they heard Le Yin say "second" again, then one child remembered what adults say when they meet and tried saying a bunch of auspicious words: "Wishing you a Happy New Year, may lucky stars shine on you, and may all your wishes come true!"

Le Yin promptly handed him a red envelope.

Seeing it really worked, other children rushed up to say auspicious words too:

"Wishing you a joyful festive season, happiness and joy throughout the year!"

"Wishing you a New Year full of happiness and safety for your whole family!"

"Wishing you a prosperous and successful New Year, with plenty of wealth coming your way!"

"May everything go smoothly for you, Happy New Year!"

...

Children who received a red envelope ran off excitedly, and soon another group of children came, reciting a string of auspicious words and then running off with their red envelopes.

In the end, children from the whole alley ended up coming to Yard No. 6 at least twice, with some even coming a third time.

Mengyu realized this method of acquiring positive energy could only be used once, as after coming over a few times, some children even brought others from different alleys to Yard No. 6, since saying a few auspicious words could earn a red envelope, who wouldn’t want to come?

Feeling the relentless flood of heartfelt blessings, Mengyu went to the back garden and took out the Space House where Gu Dongxing was, channeling the positive energy into the Space House, allowing Gu Dongxing to gain a considerable amount of positive energy, which had a wonderful effect on repairing his Dantian.

Mengyu’s bad mood after Gu Dongxing’s incident also improved.
