Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife Chapter 446: This Is Wanting To Empty Out the Storeroom?

Chapter 446: This Is Wanting To Empty Out the Storeroom?

It was her first year spending the new year in the husband’s home and also her first year managing the household. The holiday gifts Jing Wan sent back to her maiden family were abundant to the point where even she felt a bit embarrassed. If switched with another family, perhaps they would think that she was going to empty out her husband’s family to supply her maiden family, don’t know how they will slander her. Of course, if it was another family, Jing Wan absolutely wouldn’t do this kind of thing.
However, in reality, Li Hong Yuan simply didn’t think anything of it, even giving ‘suggestions’ to the side, telling Jing Wan that she can even add a bit more. Jing Wan was just speechless from hearing. A certain someone clearly has never prepared holiday gifts before, purely just blindly directing. If one were to listen to him, don’t know what it will end up like.
Jing Wan let him stay to one side out of her way, as long as he doesn’t mind her having the storerooms emptied out.
Li Hong Yuan leaned to the side, propping up his head with one hand, incomparably pleased, “To want to empty out Jin Qinwang Manor’s storerooms, Wan Wan still need a bit of effort, and further need a bit of courage and guts. After all, there’s quite a few things bestowed by the emperor inside.”
“You’re being deliberate, aren’t you?” Jing Wan glared at him.
“Definitely not. This husband is just thinking, Wan Wan can have the things inside converted, using other things to fill in. That way, there won’t be any problem at all.” Li Hong Yuan carried a bit of a smile. Jing Wan felt that he was asking for a praise.
Afterwards, Jing Wan just wanted to slap him. No problem? The problem will be even bigger alright?! Any random item in the storeroom was all priceless. If converted into other things, don’t know how many mountains it can be piled into, able to have the Luo family’s courtyard buried. It’ll definitely create quite a sight to behold in the capital. Afterwards, it’s just waiting for the one on the throne to invite her and the Luo family for tea.
Even so, when the Luo family received the things, it was still a moment of speechlessness. Originally, Luo Old Madam simply didn’t have Jing Wan’s gift taken seriously, feeling that she would have propriety, but with it becoming more and more excessive each time, even she all couldn’t help but sigh, “If Wan Wan continues like this, our family all don’t need to engage in business anymore. Just relying on these, can live extravagantly for several generations.”
Luo Pei Shan was drinking tea to the side, “On the second, when third girl comes back, why don’t you have a talk with her. Even if Jin Qinwang doesn’t mind, still can’t have the Luo family raised lazy, wanting to reap without sowing, having third girl raising treated as natural and expected. That way, our Luo family also don’t need to think about how many generations of glory, or bringing honor to the ancestors, just directly go back and eat out the mountain, and afterwards, wait for death.”
Luo Old Madam laughed, “Things still aren’t that serious yet. The younger generation that you taught, you should still have some confidence in.”
Luo Pei Shan smirked, “Indeed, the younger generation that I brought up certainly won’t have any problems, just afraid of those that weren’t taught by me being short-sighted.” Towards this bit, Sir Luo still had a bit of confidence.
Luo Old Madam declined to comment, “Since the things have already been sent over, then there’s no reason to send back, just directly have it sent to the various branches. Speaking of which, for the others, it’s still more or less the same as before, just having a bit more of the things for winter. Additionally, there’s also younger brother-in-law’s share. From the looks of it, all good things. Younger brother-in-law will probably like.”
Luo Pei Shan specially checked the list of gifts prepared for Luo Pei Song, feeling somewhat jealous, “Third girl treats that great-uncle of hers even better than me, this grandfather. The things for me, one didn’t see these treasures.”
Luo Old Madam rolled her eyes at him, “If these things really were given to you, would you really like from the bottom of your heart? Afraid you’ll just be upset, saying that Wan Wan is deliberately mocking you.”
Sir Luo weakly smiled. About that, he was born a scholar, and back in the day, the flower snatcher (third place in the imperial exam) during his time, so he believed himself to be erudite and multi-talented, and naturally, towards the renowned calligraphy paintings, and the things that the great majority of scholars liked, he also all liked, but these definitely weren’t the most favored by him. In comparison, the plants and flowers further surpassed those, and it just so happens that Jing Wan was skilled in this aspect. That’s why, the stock in Sir Luo’s hand were actually quite a few already. Between different things, naturally it wasn’t good to compare which was more valuable. After all, in their respective territory, they naturally all believed that their treasure was priceless.
“If you really like, just tell Wan Wan. Compared to those things prepared for younger brother-in-law, Jin Qinwang won’t mind preparing another share for you too. In fact, it might be even better.” Luo Old Madam ‘relentlessly’ continued mocking.
The clever and eloquent Sir Luo at this time didn’t dare to retort, instead repeatedly begging for mercy.
The various types of lanterns were hung up, everywhere pasted with the character for good fortune(福).
Even if this year had all kinds of unfavorable matters, Le Cheng Emperor still wrote down many fu(福) characters, probably wanting to borrow the festivity to have the bad luck previously suppressed.
(T/N: Basically the emperor will write a bunch of the character and send it out to his subjects. Receiving the good fortune character in the emperor’s handwriting was considered a huge honor.)
The fu(福) character sent to Jin Qinwang Manor didn’t even go through Jing Wan’s hand, directly getting taken by Mu An to a certain place to paste, like driving a light carriage down a familiar path. It was obvious that in past years, it was all him handling this matter, appearing as if pasting in a very important place, but Jing Wan nevertheless could sense the half-heartedness in this attitude, completely not having this thing taken seriously.
After becoming a member of the imperial family, on the lunar new year’s eve, this night, one naturally needed to enter the palace to have a family reunion meal with Le Cheng Emperor and them, lively and festive, watching the fireworks, and afterwards, wait for the new year together, dismissing the old and welcoming the new.
Of course, prior to entering the palace, for the entire afternoon, Jing Wan, as the head mistress of the family, received kowtows from all the servants in the entire manor. The auspicious words freely flew out from the servants mouth. And Jing Wan had money. With everyone doing their best, all working hard throughout the year, in terms of red packet money, she naturally won’t be stingy. Everyone all received at least three months, and at most a year’s worth of bonus.
The people that received a reward all were very happy. Although in past years, there were also bestowments, but in comparison, the qinwang manor at the time was cold and desolate. With the master all like this, they as the servants naturally can’t be too lively. Moreover, the head steward (Mu An) was strict, even during the new year and other festivities, not allowed to make mistakes. That’s why, in the vast qinwang manor, there really wasn’t any festive atmosphere. Even if wanting to kowtow to their master, they all didn’t have the opportunity. But now, with wangfei here, it was just completely different. Wangfei not only gave reward money, she even let the back kitchen bestow quite a few dishes, allowing them to gather with their own family. As long as they have their respective duties handled well, the rest wasn’t a problem.
For a moment, the people of Jin Qinwang Manor naturally were even more deferential towards Jing Wan.
The way of governing required having a degree in tension and relaxation. This bit, everyone was aware, but not many were truly able to do it well. Li Hong Yuan was rather talented in this aspect, but his ‘tension and relaxation’ was just a bit special.
After getting ready, Jing Wan entered the palace with Li Hong Yuan. Jing Wan didn’t wear the qin-wangfei formal gown, instead dressed fully in red, including the things used on her, all an entire set of ruby ornaments. Although she was young, there completely wasn’t the feeling of being unable to handle.
In the winter weather, she appeared warm and full of festivity, her entire person also increasingly bright and radiant.
Seeing his smiling wife, Li Hong Yuan couldn’t help but lean over and kiss her on her lips. Once wasn’t enough, kissing some more, all the way until Jing Wan reached out to cover his lips.
“Stop messing around. In a bit, still need to enter the palace.” If they really were to get too heated, the outcome will probably be ‘unthinkable’.
Li Hong Yuan grasped her hand, but didn’t continue. Seeing his seemingly increasingly beautiful wife, Li Hong Yuan actually still felt quite the sense of accomplishment. One has to know, Wan Wan right now, compared to his memories of her from the past life, the differences were increasingly obvious. Of course, inherently, she didn’t really change, so these naturally made him happy.
Putting on the cloak, and carrying along the hand furnace, they stepped onto the carriage, grandiosely heading towards the imperial palace.
