"Today, there are many noble families who came to burn incense. Not to mention the upper courtyard, even the dormitories are full. I am alone, and it is not easy to compete with them with their families. I can only shamelessly come to Sixth Miss."
Ye Jintang had let down her guard against Jiang Zhi just now, and after hearing him say this, she no longer had the intention of chasing him away.
New Year's Eve is a day for family reunion. Jiang Zhi is alone, and she is alone too, so they simply put aside all the messy things and spend the New Year together.
"I don't have anything to treat Brother Jiang here. Liuli, go get some dried fruits and preserves, and call Wuwei and Madam Lou over."
"Yes."
Liuli quickly brought snacks such as dried fruits and candied fruits to Jiang Zhi, poured tea for the two of them, and then went to call for help.
Today is New Year's Eve. Liuli and the other two came over to greet Ye Jintang together. Jiang Zhi, who was standing nearby, also got the chance to receive a greeting.
"Here, one bag for each of you. I am a very generous master."
Ye Jintang distributed the red envelopes that he had prepared long ago to everyone.
Nanny Lou didn't expect that she had one too. She took it with both hands and felt it was heavy.
In the past, the marquis's mansion would also give red envelopes to servants during the New Year to bring good luck.
The good ones are worth one or two taels of silver, and the bad ones are just a few copper coins.
It was obvious that what Ye Jintang gave was not just one or two taels of silver. She felt around and found six or seven small items inside. After weighing them, she realized it was at least ten taels of silver.
"Master, can I open it and take a look?"
Liuli was very excited holding the red envelope.
"Of course, everything inside is yours, you can look at it anytime you want."
After opening the red envelope, Liuli poured everything inside into her palm.
There are a total of 6 gadgets inside.
2 gold melon seeds, 2 silver melon seeds, and a pair of small jade ruyi.
The total cost of these six small items is not cheap, at least 30 taels of silver.
A New Year's red envelope was so valuable that not only Liuli was surprised, even Aunt Lou couldn't believe it.
She quickly opened her red envelope, and found that there was indeed the same thing as Liuli inside.
"Miss, such a valuable item, I dare not accept it."
Nanny Lou handed the red envelope back with both hands.
"Madam Lou, just keep it with peace of mind. You are serving in my courtyard, so you are naturally one of my people. If there is any benefit, you will definitely get it."
It has to be said that Ye Jintang is extremely good at winning people's hearts.
Nanny Lou worked in Old Madam Ye's courtyard, which was a prestigious position, but her monthly salary was fixed.
Even if she has some power, she won't get any benefit in a year.
What Ye Jintang spent was real money.
Nanny Lou worked so hard all year round but couldn't save 30 taels of silver. She felt that she should be grateful for what she had received, so the balance in Nanny Lou's heart had already tilted towards Ye Jintang.
It's better to live with a generous master than with the stingy old lady Ye.
"You all go down and rest. I don't need any serving here."
"Yes."
Several people responded, but only Nanny Lou really left. Liuli took a book and sat by the fire to read.
Zhou Wuwei held Xuetuan and sat at the door.
I don't know when, but small snowflakes started falling outside.
"Wuwei, come sit inside, it's too cold outside."
"it is good."
Zhou Wuwei moved to the inner room and closed the door.
"Wuwei, how old are you this year?"
Jiang Zhi asked casually.
"14."
“Isn’t it 13?”
"Chinese New Year is coming soon, it's 14."
When Ye Jintang heard Zhou Wuwei's answer, the corners of his lips couldn't help but rise slightly.
Young children always like the Chinese New Year because they can grow one year older every year.
They are eager to grow up and be like adults.
Unfortunately, Jiang Zhi didn't think so.
Since coming to Tianqin, Ye Jintang has lived a very regular life, going to bed early at night and getting up early during the day.
After chatting for a while, she couldn't help yawning when she was warmed by the charcoal stove.
No matter what Jiang Zhi said, she just responded in a daze.
"Liuli, help Miss Six to the inner room to rest."
Liuli looked up and saw Ye Jintang pecking at rice like a chick, nodding sleepily from time to time.
She quickly got up and helped Ye Jintang into the inner room.
"Brother Jiang, please do as you please."
Before leaving, Ye Jintang did not forget to give Jiang Zhi some instructions.
"it is good."
After Ye Jintang entered the inner room, Jiang Zhi was not in a hurry to leave.
He sat in the main room until midnight before getting up and leaving.
Zhou Wuwei also stayed with him the whole time, and even saw him out of the hospital very cautiously.
"Wuwei, you are still too young. Just be your servant and don't covet what doesn't belong to you."
"I will tell you this as it is, Lord Jiang. It would be better for you to get married as soon as possible at your age."
Jiang Zhi never expected that Zhou Wuwei, a little kid, could say such words.
He smiled playfully and turned away.
Zhou Wuwei watched Jiang Zhi disappear into the night before closing the gate.
An unknown amount of time had passed before the bell for Zizheng rang. Liuli was so curious that she couldn't help but go to the main hall to watch the fun.
Ye Jintang was not interested in these things, so he turned over and continued to sleep.
The next day, when Ye Jintang got up and washed up, Liuli couldn't help but talk about what she saw and heard last night.
"The people from the Danyang Marquis' Mansion are so infuriating. Madam Gan brought several female relatives to the White Horse Temple, but none of them came to see the young lady. This is really too much. They don't take the young lady seriously at all."
"It doesn't matter. To me, the Marquis of Danyang Mansion is just a beautiful family. If they don't want to give me face, then don't even think about taking advantage of me in the future."
"Liuli, be happy. Today is the first day of the new year. You can't be unhappy over such a small matter. Change into some thicker clothes later. We will also go to the main hall to burn some incense and pray for good luck."
"Okay, I have already bought three incense sticks as thick as my three fingers. The Buddha will surely see our sincerity."
Ye Jintang finished washing up and was about to go out when he saw that Zhou Wuwei was not there.
"Wu Wei, doesn't he usually get up early to practice swordplay? Why didn't Jin see him practicing martial arts in the yard?"
"Before daybreak, Wuwei came down the mountain, saying that he had not yet finished the work the girl had given him."
"Well, Wuwei is becoming more and more stable."
The White Horse Temple was very lively throughout the first month of the lunar year. Ye Jintang lived a very carefree life, strolling around every day, learning medical skills with Liuli when he had nothing to do, and planting various medicinal herbs in the space.
Leisurely days always pass quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was the tenth day of the first lunar month.
Zhou Wuwei, who had not been seen for several days, finally came to see Ye Jintang with a letter from Nanny Liu and a big box of snacks.
"Young lady, open the letter quickly and see what Madam Liu said to see if the matter is settled."
Looking at the thick envelope, Liuli was quite anxious.
"Let me see."
Ye Jintang opened the envelope and read the contents quickly.
"It's done. The pregnancy pills were delivered to Ye Yanran's yard on the fourth day of the New Year."
