Rebirth of the original wife

Chapter 63

On New Year's Eve, Li Wan was woken up by the sound of firecrackers outside, and her mind was a little confused. It was late last night, but fortunately, Qin Muyin grasped the measure and didn't feel uncomfortable. He heard Qin Muyin outside and the old man The sound of human voices made Li Wan sit up in a jerk, and turned her head. Zilan and Zishu were standing beside the bed. Potato held the bowl, holding a flat spoon in his hand, dipped the beige paste into the bowl, and then spread it on the inner layer of the paper-cut.

"Why did you think of posting this?" During the Chinese New Year, every household would post paper-cuts, but they were pasted on the windows. Li Wan was puzzled, since they were stuck on the curtains, it would be difficult to take them off.

The corner of Zilan's mouth smiled sweetly, and as soon as Zixun's spoon was taken away, she pressed it tightly with her hands to make sure it was sticky, and replied, "The old lady sent it, and said it was a paper-cut made by staying up late with Jiang's mother last night. Ma'am, come and see, what you cut is a pair of dragons playing with pearls!" There is also a small fish in the middle, implying family reunion, but Zi Lan didn't say it, Madam is thin-skinned, if she did, I would be embarrassed, the old lady is outside waiting.

Li Wan nodded, thinking about the old lady outside, resenting Qin Muyin in her heart, not reminding her when she got up, and urged Zilan, "Let the purple potato do it slowly, first bring my clothes!"

It was too late for Li Wan to take a bath, she wiped her body last night, she just thought about it, let's talk about it after today.

Li Wan asked Zilan to wear a slightly complicated bun and put the magnolia flower hairpin in it. At first, she liked the magnolia flower hairpin to please the old lady and Qin Muyin. I really fell in love with her. She wore a crimson dress and Confucian skirt. In her first year in the Hou Mansion, the red dress looked festive. When she went out, Li Wan noticed that there were stickers everywhere on the windows and doors. Paper-cutting, embossed paper-cutting, or window grille paper-cutting were all beaming, and Li Wan's mood improved accordingly, with a happy face.

Stretching out her hand, she carefully opened the curtain. The old lady and Qin Muyin were sitting on the kang. The old lady was also wearing a red peony-patterned shirt, with a layer of gold thread on the collar and sleeves. It was noble and elegant. Mother Jiang stood aside, Hearing the sound of the curtain, she raised her head with a smile on her face, very shallow, but from the bottom of her heart.

Li Wan thought, it must be because the old lady told her not to keep a straight face during Chinese New Year.

Seeing Mother Jiang nodding her head slightly, she walked to the door and said a few words to Zi Xun who was at the door, Zi Xun trotted away, Li Wan remembered the box on the table, turned her head and said to Zi Lan, "There is a box on the table, Take it out later, and send some to people in various yards!"

The mother in charge is one tael, the maid is half a tael, and Li Wan’s dowry has silver bills, but it cost a little to buy the bracelet for Zhou Shuangshuang, and the rewards for the servants are too much, and then suddenly there is no or less money, next time People are in conflict with each other, and she has a good grasp of it, so that people will neither think that she is narrow-minded, nor that she is extravagant and wasteful.

As soon as she spoke, the old lady and Qin Muyin looked over with their heads down. Li Wan walked over embarrassedly, stopped in front of the old lady, and frowned, "Old lady has auspicious new year, my daughter-in-law kowtows to you!"

After finishing speaking, he really knelt down and kowtowed three times.

The old lady and Qin Muyin were startled, before they had time to help her, when Li Wan got up, there was an extra hand in front of her, slender and fair, with five distinct fingers, Li Wan's eyes were full of spring, she put her hand on it with a smile, Qin Muyin got off the kang, and Li Wan was shoulder-to-shoulder, and quickly leaned over to pick up a son and put it down, with a relaxed expression, and said calmly, "My son kowtowed to the old lady!"

The old lady was taken aback, Qin Muyin got up and stood in front of the kang after kowtowing, together with Li Wan.The old lady smiled, and looked at the chessboard again, there were two pieces in front of the black piece, and the fourth piece on the left. Looking at the whole chess game, none of the sunspots made four, so she lost!
Pretending to be angry, he glared at Qin Muyin, and said to Li Wan in a harmonious voice, "After dinner, let's play, he is a genius!"

Li Wan glanced at the chessboard, nodded with a smile, and stepped forward to help the old lady put on her shoes. The old lady smiled and waved to Mama Jiang, "Mama Jiang just come!"

It's not good to say that you don't refuse others during the Chinese New Year. The old lady wanted Jiang's mother to serve her, and Li Wanming didn't want to come forward anymore. Zi Xun took the maid and started serving dishes.

In fact, the food is the same as usual, but for the sake of looking good and festive, red chili, red dates and longan are placed in it for decoration, and it feels like a dazzling array.

After a meal, it was enjoyable, and the earth dragon was burned in the house, which was very warm and comfortable.Suddenly, the old lady asked them if they smelled any scent, Li Wan sniffed her nose, shook her head, met Qin Mu's smiling eyes, seemed to understand, blushed, and said it was the fragrance of wintersweet.

The old lady's eyes fell on the two of them, and she smiled even more happily.Qin Muyin followed the old Lord Hou, and there was no servant girl around him. In the first two years, she thought he had a hidden disease, and she refused to agree to her marriage. Jiang's mother was anxious to ask the doctor secretly, but he knew about it, and she kept a cold face for a long time .

The son I raised by myself still understands better. When she married the old Hou Ye, the old Hou Ye had already achieved great success. Qin Muyin is very similar. He is willing to talk to him about everything, and asks him to run errands for everything. He has no official position, but what he says in front of the emperor is extremely useful, and he is considered a leader.

Thinking of the one in the palace, the old lady felt disappointed. He and Mu Yin said that they were not like monarchs and ministers, and that they were friends like friends.

After breakfast, Li Wan memorized the old lady's two favorite dishes and removed the bowls and chopsticks. She said to Qin Muyin, "Master Hou, you are playing chess with the old lady, and I will cook some small dishes myself!"

Mother Jiang frowned when she heard this, and wanted to stop it. The wife of a rich family doesn’t need to cook by herself, she will be laughed at by others, but the old lady has already laughed, "Okay, just now Mu Yin won a round with me, I have to get rid of it." Go back to the city!"

Mother Jiang stood still, with a serious expression on her face. The old lady spoke, and she couldn't stop her anymore.

Li Wan put on the overalls she had prepared long ago and went to the kitchen. Mama Zhang and Mama Li were also there. Li Wan took out the purse she had prepared for them. It was specially prepared by her. There were two silver anklets in it. Shuangcheng means that they help manage the painting courtyard, she is very relaxed, and, she knows something about Zhang's mother talking about her in front of Jiang's mother, she is grateful to them, they also sincerely protected the Hou's mansion in their previous life .
