The Jiang family has both elderly and young members. They didn't persist in staying up until midnight for the New Year's Eve celebration because it would be inconvenient for everyone to go home so late.

Around 9 o'clock, Grandpa Jiang felt a bit tired and took out red envelopes to distribute to the younger generation.

Cen Huai'an was the first to kneel down and kowtow, receiving the red envelope with a smile on his face, "Thank you, Great-Grandpa!"

Several children including Zhang Lu immediately followed suit, saying, "Thank you, Great-Grandpa, Grandpa."

Others waited for Grandpa Jiang to finish giving to the children. At this moment, Jiang Zhida took out a stack of money, sat on the sofa, and shook it in one hand while saying, "Come on, let me hear who can give me the most pleasant and abundant New Year wishes. One wish per banknote!"

Cen Huai'an's eyes lit up at the sight of the money. Before the other children could react, he stood directly in front of Jiang Zhida, "Wishing Uncle all the best, abundant wealth, smooth sailing, peace, and joy..."

He said one wish, Jiang Zhida counted one banknote. Soon, the stack of money in Jiang Zhida's hand diminished, and the stack of money given to Cen Huai'an for the New Year increased.

Cen Huai'an continued without pause or hesitation. None of his wishes were repeated. The eyes of Zhang Lu and the other children widened, and their faces became more anxious because Cen Huai'an was quickly using up the New Year wishes they had prepared.

Jiang Zhida, however, looked extremely pleased, listening with satisfaction, "An'an's wishes are so good. In the future, I hope for abundant wealth and everything to go smoothly!"

Chu Xia felt embarrassed as she covered her face: "Oh no, Cen Huai'an's little money enthusiast side can't be concealed anymore. But when did he accumulate so many auspicious phrases?"

Cen Zhengnian smiled proudly as he looked at Cen Huai'an, and the other adults also looked surprised.

Jiang Zhiguan asked Chu Xia quietly, "How did you make An'an learn this? He's only ten!"

So many non-repeating auspicious idioms, not to mention children, even the adults couldn't come up with them.

Chu Xia shook her head, "I've never forced him to learn."

An'an knows so many things because he likes it and learns on his own.

Jiang Zhiyi, hearing this, couldn't believe it and exclaimed, "An'an is amazing! When I was ten, I don't even remember what I did, let alone studying."

Jiang Zhiguan shared the same sentiment.

When Jiang Zhida finished counting the money in his hand, Cen Huai'an stopped and looked at Jiang Zhida, saying with a smile, "Uncle, let me go first with these wishes."

Cen Huai'an could continue, but Zhang Lu had been pulling his sleeve, and if he continued, others would truly have nothing left to say.

Jiang Zhida looked at the money on the table meant for Cen Huai'an and then at his empty hands, a bit slow to react.

He had prepared not just a dozen bills but dozens of them for the big unity, thinking that with these few kids at home, it wouldn't be too much, but unexpectedly, Cen Huai'an took away all the New Year's money with just one round.

However, listening to so many auspicious words, Jiang Zhida was also very happy. Besides, during the New Year, the goal is to have fun. He handed the money on the table to Cen Huai'an, saying, "Alright, these are all yours!"

Cen Huai'an took the money, and the imaginary accounting book in his mind made a loud sound. His savings were once again significantly increased.

Now, An'an was like a little money-loving pixiu, eagerly grabbing all the money.
