I was so happy that I didn't sleep much that night. There were so many things to do that I didn't have time to rest.

They moved all the valuables in the house to the new house, put them in Zhao Huanxi's room and locked it up. Now there was basically nothing in the two shabby thatched houses except for the wooden bed and a few broken wooden boxes.

Zhao Huanxi looked at the empty house and remembered the morning when he first came here. The house was just like this, and he felt a little melancholy for a moment.

"Mom, what are you thinking about?" Xiao Pan asked.

She never thought that she would be able to eat enough without being beaten, eat well and dress warmly, and even live in such a nice big house.

Huanxi came back to her senses, touched Xiaopan's face, and said to her with a smile: "How is it? Are your new clothes comfortable?"

Xiao Pan smiled and raised his head: "Hehe ~ comfortable ~"

Today the girls all wore new clothes and new shoes, and they also had beautiful double buns with pretty little pearl flowers on them, and small silver bracelets on their hands.

The little girls are all very pretty. After dressing up, they look as beautiful as the daughters of wealthy families.

Zhao Huanxi was wearing new clothes today, too. She particularly favored green, and her hair was simply tied up with a long silver hairpin. She wasn't good at styling her hair, and for the past two months, the most she'd done was just to tie it up, which was considered a done comb for her.

She has become a little plumper in the past two months and is no longer so dry that she can't even hold up her clothes.

At this time, the sound of a carriage was heard at the door. Zhao Huanxi hurried out. The driver was Pang Hongying, who was dressed in men's clothes.

"Sister Huanxi, am I here early?"

He jumped off the carriage and greeted Huanxi.

"Welcome, welcome. Today this is where we cook. We won't be welcoming guests. Please drive the carriage to the backyard. I'll take you to my new house."

"Happy girl~"

Following a pleasant voice, a beautiful woman opened the carriage curtain and emerged from inside.

"Miss Yu Yan, welcome. The arrival of two distinguished guests really brings honor to my humble home." Zhao Huanxi joked with a smile.

Pang Hongying led the horse: "Hey, let's go, didn't you say you reserved a room for me? I want to go see what it's like."

"Please follow me, both of you." Zhao Huanxi walked in front.

It was only the early morning hours (5:00-6:59), and the carriage ride from town would take over an hour. These two had probably been on their journey since the dead of night, so now was a good time to head to the guest room for a rest.

After walking for a minute or two, I saw a blue brick house sitting in front of a bamboo forest. There was a mountain stream just a hundred or two hundred meters to the right. The feng shui of this place was really good.

Zhao Huanxi opened the gate and invited the two in.

"Wow, Sister Huanxi, your house is so unique." It was the first time she saw a house of this layout, and she felt a little curious.

"Your Furong Pavilion is really new. I felt like a bumpkin when I first went there." Zhao Huanxi thought of the two-story building.

"Although Furong Pavilion is nice, it can't compare to the warmth of Miss Huanxi's home." Yu Yan said softly.

"That's right, I think so too." Pang Hongying agreed.

Zhao Huanxi thought the two of them probably hadn't eaten yet, so he asked, "Have you had breakfast? Are you hungry? Go to the guest room and rest for a while. I'll bring breakfast over later."

"Don't worry, Sister Huanxi, I brought you some housewarming gifts." She ran towards the carriage and brought out many large boxes one after another.

Seeing these large boxes, Zhao Huanxi finally understood why she had to drive a carriage today...

"Oh...why did you bring so much?"

"Not many, not many, just some small things." Then he opened one of the larger boxes.

Inside was a box filled with various kinds of cloth. Zhao Huanxi frowned slightly when he saw this.

"Hongying...this is too expensive..." Zhao Huanxi was a little reluctant to accept it.

But Pang Hongying was completely unaware and continued to open the remaining boxes.

"These are snacks from Baolanzhai, these are pearl necklaces for the children, and these are fresh red fruits."

After Hongying finished her introduction, Zhao Huanxi was almost petrified. How could he possibly pay back so much money?

Seeing Zhao Huanxi was silent and embarrassed, Pang Hongying suddenly remembered Xiao Yuer's words before leaving: If you bring so much with you, Miss Huanxi will be unhappy...

She didn't think too much about it, she just wanted to give her whatever her sister Huanxi needed at home...

Yu Yan sighed, took a small step forward and said to Huanxi, "Miss Huanxi, this is a little gift from me. It may not be worth much, but I spent several nights embroidering it."

Zhao Huanxi took it and opened it to see that it was actually a sachet with a faint scent of mugwort.

"Hmm~ It smells so good. Miss Yu Yan is so clever. What I lack most when I go up the mountain is this kind of insect repellent sachet." Zhao Huanxi praised sincerely.

Miss Yu Yan smiled and said, "As long as Miss Huanxi likes it, it's good. The things Hongying brought are all her thoughts. Miss Huanxi, please carry them in quickly."

"Oh, I forgot. I was just shocked. Hongying, thank you for sending so many things. Let's move them to your guest room first. There will be a lot of people coming soon. I feel at ease if I lock your room." Zhao Huanxi really forgot. He was just thinking about what to return and didn't notice Hongying's lost expression.

Hongying was only seventeen, and although she was cautious, she was still a little childish. So he said to Hongying, "How about this, since you're here this time, why don't you stay with Miss Yuyan for a few days before leaving?"

Hongying immediately brightened up when she heard this: "Really? I even brought a change of clothes with me, I was just wondering how to ask."

Zhao Huanxi smiled helplessly: "You~ are such a child."

After several people moved their things into the house, Zhao Huanxi asked them to rest in the house for a while and he would call them after they had rested.

Walking to the front yard, the kitchen helper that Zhao Huanxi called for had also arrived and was busy washing and cutting vegetables in the kitchen.

Old Mrs. Tian was feeling a lot of emotions in the yard. If her son hadn't been such a bastard, how great it would have been if he were living with Huanxi now.

He sighed and asked Lu Lin to borrow tables, chairs and benches from several nearby homes.

Lu Lin agreed and ran out.

"Mom, how is Dad? Is he feeling better?" Zhao Huanxi thought of the old man who loved to smoke dry tobacco. Today, he wondered if the old man could come and have a seat at the table.

Old Mrs. Tian looked towards her home and said, "He's fine. He just had a fever the past two days. He should be over soon."

Now guests have arrived one after another, adults and children are talking together, and the yard is very lively.

The three girls went to the new house with their good friends from the village. Zhao Huanxi let them go, as their valuables were all locked up in their own rooms. Xiao Pan and Xiao Yin were both sensible and wouldn't go anywhere they shouldn't be.

After a while, Xu Qingzhao came with a small package. He took out the pens and ink from the package, and the rest of the things were gifts for Huanxi.

"Brother Xu, you are so polite." Zhao Huanxi took it with a smile and was about to open it to take a look when Xu Qingzhao stopped her.

"There are too many people around now. Open it when there's no one around." Xu Qingzhao said gently.

Oh, it's quite mysterious. Now I want to know what's inside. I asked Mrs. Tian to help greet the guests and ran to the new house with the package.

She unlocked the door, closed it, and unpacked it, all in one go. The contents nearly surprised her.

"Ah! This is too valuable! No, no, I have to return it."
