Getting Rich from Legend of Zhen Huan

No matter how noisy it was before the Chinese New Year, this year was still spent in peace.

--------Royal Palace Family Banquet-----------------------------

Liu Youyou accompanied the Fourth Prince into the palace to attend a royal family banquet. She greeted everyone with a polite smile.

Concubine Yi was still a little sarcastic towards Concubine De, and was fooled by her with just a few words.

Liu Youyou and Guaerjia's concubine were mixed with the princes' wives, which was very awkward. The eldest wife was a gentle person, and she tried her best to keep the scene lively, and did not show disdain for being a concubine.

Then again, there was only the first wife, the legitimate wife, at the scene. The Crown Princess and the Third Wife would not marry and enter the palace until next year, so only the first wife could hold up the scene.

To be able to become a prince's concubine, those who have been brought up well in their families since childhood have very high qualities and are not those who intentionally seek trouble. They were talking in groups of three or four, and Liu Youyou mingled among them without being noticeable.

When the dinner started, Liu Youyou and Guaerjia sat on the left and right of the Fourth Prince.

In order to show his affection, the Fourth Prince kept picking up food for Liu Youyou, which made his concubine Guaerjia next to him turn pale.

But Liu Youyou, who was being served food, did not want to enjoy this favor at all. She was not yet at the age of Qianlong who could enjoy it. There were all kinds of hot pots at the family dinner on New Year's Eve, but now all that was served on the table were cold dishes. After all, in order to ensure consistency and not let the nobles eat reheated leftovers, the hot dishes were served as cold dishes.

Looking at the food on her plate covered with solidified grease, Liu Youyou found it really hard to eat. However, she couldn't let the Fourth Prince down, so she just ate it whole.

Fortunately, the chefs in the imperial kitchen also took this into consideration. Even though it was cold, the taste was not too bad. Of course, it was also related to the fact that the Fourth Prince did not touch the greasy pork elbow. Otherwise, Liu Youyou would have to say goodbye to the pork elbow dish in this life.

The Fourth Prince's actions were not secretive, or rather he really wanted others, especially Fei Yanggu, to see that he and Yi Xiu had a harmonious relationship and were extremely affectionate.

The eldest prince saw the fourth prince's actions and learned to pick up food for the first wife, which earned a sweet smile from the first wife. Then he glanced at the prince with energy and asked, "Where is your wife?"

The prince was so angry that he almost couldn't hold on to his smile. Was he sick? The prince bit the food on his plate fiercely, biting it as if it were the eldest prince, and ignored the envious eyes of the two concubines beside him. Except for the emperor, who else could let the prince pick up food? He couldn't tell the identity.

The Third Prince is very jealous. The Fourth Prince isn't even the legitimate wife yet, but he's already been so clingy with her. What will you do when the legitimate wife comes into the mansion in the future?

The Fifth Prince was very simple. He hoped that his future wife would be as noble, good-looking and gentle as his Fourth Prince.

The rest of the younger brothers didn't pay any attention to the lawsuit between their older brothers.

----------Jiang Family---------------------------

Although there are only two people in the Jiang family, mother and son, they are much warmer than the imperial palace where everyone has their own ulterior motives.

Jiang's mother had already ordered the menu for the New Year's Eve dinner and was now watching the kitchen, especially the dumplings that would be made during the night watch. In order to make the taste that Jiang Chen liked, there had to be no mistakes from kneading the dough to mixing the dumpling stuffing.

Jiang Chen said helplessly to his mother: "Mother, with your guidance, Aunt Wu will not cook bad food. Please sit down and take a rest!"

Jiang's mother came over and sat down to rest, and said angrily, "You are the only one who makes sense."

It snowed a little today, but it didn't last long before the sky turned blue.

Mother Jiang looked at the clear sky and the fiery red plum trees outside, and said with emotion: "The plum trees are in full bloom this year! Speaking of which, Brother Chen will be twenty years old after the New Year. Isn't it time for him to have his coming-of-age ceremony?"

Jiang Chen replied, "Yes, generally men have their coming-of-age ceremony in February, and the date is a few days after the New Year. The teacher started planning this early, and asked someone to calculate a good date in February, and invited Master Zhang Ying to be the one who ceremonies the coming-of-age ceremony."

Mother Jiang warned: "Lord Li cannot attend your coming-of-age ceremony because he is in great mourning. You must not forget his kindness. Remember to kowtow to Lord Li."

Jiang Chen nodded seriously, "Teacher treats me like a son. I will never forget it."

Speaking of the ceremony, Jiang's mother thought of something, "Chen'er, when we entertain guests, we must have good wine. There is some girl's red wine that has been stored under the plum tree for more than 20 years. Dig it out and serve it to the guests!"

Jiang Chen knew that those were the drinks prepared for his sister's wedding banquet, but now Jiang's mother wanted to dig them out.

He held Jiang's mother's hand and said firmly, "Mother, my sister will definitely come back. This wine should be saved for our family reunion."

Jiang's mother looked into Jiang Chen's eyes and couldn't help but feel her eyes blurry. She quickly used a handkerchief to catch her tears and said, "Mother believes in Brother Chen."

------------Ulanala Mansion Courtyard-------------------------

Aunt Jiang cooked herself and made Yixiu's favorite dumplings, wondering whether Yixiu was living well in the Fourth Prince's mansion. This child always reported good news but not bad news.

What made Aunt Jiang uneasy was the news that came with the New Year gifts sent by Yixiu.

The message contained only one sentence: 'Flowers are blooming on the roadside, you can take your time to go home.'

Where could she go back to? Aunt Jiang had an answer in her mind, an answer she couldn't believe.

Aunt Jiang's mind was not on the dumplings, and she made a lot of them without realizing it.

Bai Zhu was outside directing the servants to decorate the courtyard. Ever since the princess married into the Fourth Prince's house, their courtyard was no longer deserted. This year, everyone from the master to the concubine and all the supervisors had sent New Year gifts.

Bai Zhu felt quite proud and full of energy, and said in full force, "The silk over there is hanging crookedly, straighten it out!"

Bai Zhu is no longer the pretty girl she was more than ten years ago. Her parents died early, and she signed a contract to sell herself to the Ulanala Mansion. Fortunately, she has a good master and has no plans to get married.

Moreover, Bai Shu calculated clearly that if the Fourth Prince was granted the title of Prince in the future, then they would be able to enjoy a good life. Why did they have to serve men? By serving Aunt Jiang, she would be thanked by Concubine Jin and would have no worries about food and clothing in the future. By serving men, she would lose both money and life.

After giving instructions outside, he went into the house to see Aunt Jiang. Seeing Aunt Jiang making so many dumplings without stopping, he hurried to stop her, "Good Aunt Jiang, you are almost making enough for everyone in our yard!"

Aunt Jiang looked at the number of dumplings and said with a smile, "This will save our Miss Baishu some effort."

Bai Zhu embraced Aunt Jiang, just like he did 20 years ago, and said in annoyance: "Aunt Jiang is just a teaser!"

Aunt Jiang laughed out loud, and the melancholy feeling she had just felt was gone. The laughter of the two echoed in the courtyard.
