After transmigrating, I became a stepmother.

Actually, the origin of these screens can be described as an accidental discovery! Originally, Lin Hao wanted to install glass throughout Xiao Baozi's study, but after asking around, she found out that glass was incredibly expensive at that time!

She had no choice but to have one side made; the rest remained unchanged. At that moment, she really wished she were a science student, so she could directly come up with a glass-making formula instead of being held hostage by the throat of her fate.

Although she didn't get everything she wanted, she still gained something. While chatting with the manager, Lin Hao heard that there were many defective products in Liulichang, so she took note of it and had someone bring some back to take a look.

Looking at it this way, I've got a bit of inspiration!

These glass pieces are all defective products that had problems during the production process. Some are not clear enough and have too many impurities, some have uneven colors and lack aesthetic appeal, and some have uneven surfaces, etc. In short, they are all kinds of strange.

Lin Hao thought to himself, "These glass pieces are so expensive to make, it would be a real shame to just throw them away!"

Looking at these glass pieces, she focused her gaze on the uneven, color-mixed but clear sections, and an idea formed in her mind.

They may not be perfect for bright and clean windows, but they still allow good light to pass through, and they don't need to be replaced regularly like window paper. Plus, they come in a variety of colors, which gives them a unique charm.

Find a professional craftsman, explain your ideas, and the craftsman's eyes light up. With enough aesthetic support, you can use these defective products to create a series of exquisite paintings!

Having gained the craftsman's approval, Lin Hao immediately ordered people to purchase a large quantity of such glass at a low price. Considering that this kind of colored glass was not suitable for use in the study, Lin Hao thought of the time when Xiao Baozi wanted to go fishing by the lake but was turned away by the cold.

The decision was made to turn this into a detachable screen for the pavilion, providing a nearby place for the little bun to keep warm, and also to decorate the scenery.

"Mrs. Gu is really amazing! I never imagined that these glass pieces could be put together so beautifully!" Little He Xinlan happily touched this and looked at that, feeling like her eyes couldn't take it all in.

"Sister, look here! Those flowers have gotten so much bigger!" she exclaimed, tugging at her newly recognized sister's sleeve in surprise as she happily shared her discovery.

"Really? Let me see." Miss Zhang walked over with interest, bent down slightly to look outside, and exclaimed in surprise, "It really has grown so much!"

Upon hearing this, the little girls nearby couldn't sit still any longer and started calling out to their friends to explore.

For a moment, the room was filled with the girls' surprised voices. Some noticed that the enlarged objects looked quite different from usual, some exclaimed that they were completely unrecognizable now that the objects were so small, and others argued about which color would look better. They chattered away, completely abandoning their usual airs of being well-bred young ladies.

"Look at them, chattering away, they have no manners at all!" Madam Qian said this, but her face was full of smiles.

Girls in their prime gather together, laughing and playing – it's a rare and precious time in a woman's life!

"Indeed, I haven't seen Xian'er so lively in a long time!" Madam Gao's lips curved slightly, her gaze softening as she looked at her daughter.

"Although Madam Gu is young, she is quite clever!" Madam Qian said ambiguously, glancing at Lin Hao, who was talking to the magistrate's wife.
