Here is the paragraph in which i juz don't understand one word's meaning...

"I got plenty of chores needs doing around here this morning," his mother

announced as they were finishing the grits and red gravy. His mother was from

Georgia and still cooked like it.

"Oh, Momma!" Ellie and Brenda squawked in concert. Those girls could get

out of work faster than grasshoppers could slip through your fingers.

"Momma, you promised me and Brenda we could go to Miilsburg for school

shopping."

"You ain't got no money for school shopping!"

"Momma. We're juz going to look around."

"Christmas! You don't want us to have no fun at all."

"Any fun," Ellie corrected her primly.

What does "Christmas" mean here? And the season of the setting of the story is
August, so, that's why, i'm confused by the word...

It's a very strict household. They aren't supposed to say "Christ!" or
"Jesus Christ!" It's known as "taking the Lord's name in vain", and way
back when it can earn a beating or at least a slap. So some people invented
other ways to 'swear', like "shucks!" or "shoot!" instead of "sh*t!" It
sounds like "Christmas!" here is a substitute for "Jesus Christ!".

Basically it means "Sheesh!" :)
