Little Cui had been with Yue Huaiyin for the longest time, and knew that asking Miss too many questions would annoyed her, as for where her house was, no one had mentioned it before.

After she was bought by the little miss in the capital, she immediately followed her out of the capital. As for whether the little miss was from there, she did not know.

After knowing that New Year's Eve had been arranged like this, he excitedly went to inform the others. And as soon as La Ba passed, the New Year approached.

This was the first time in Mu Xiaowan's life that she had truly experienced the New Year. On the twenty-seventh night, Ershan went to town to bring Susu and Auntie Chen over and arranged a room for them under the cloud.

When did the two of them live in such a good house? At first, they didn't want to sleep, but after Xiaowan and Aunt Zhang said they would sleep together, they decided to stay.

At night, four people would cut the window flowers. Auntie Chen had a very coincidental hand, happy character could be cut out with just a few cuts, and Susu could also cut out beautiful window flowers. Aunt Zhang did not know that, and said that she had bought them in the past.

They were talking about their family and the interesting things they had experienced recently. They were laughing and laughing, and it was very lively.

The Auntie Chen said that she and Susu had decided to settle down here. Although there was someone to take care of them, it was not very convenient to stay in the shop. After saving up enough money in a few years, she would think of a way to build a house on the mountain.

Susu said: "Last time, Miss also told me that if I get married, I should tell her earlier. She gave me some dowry, but after talking for a while, she got angry."

"Why are you angry?" Xiaowan was very curious. Why would she be angry at a woman as gentle as water in Miss Yue?

"I said I was dirty and had been abused by others. No one would want to marry me." Susu sighed, "Miss is so angry, saying that she's dirty just like that, it's because she can't help herself, and that even if it's the ladies of the brothel, they can't do it, they mustn't insult themselves."

Aunt Zhang said: "That is correct, Miss Yue is a businessman."

The Xiaowan did not say anything, but Susu said: "What you say makes sense, but I really do not want to marry, I am afraid that I do not have the life to meet a good man, so I might as well work hard, as long as I can support myself and my mother, it is enough."

Aunt Zhang nodded her head repeatedly. "Where did all these good men come from? Even if there are, it doesn't necessarily mean that they don't belong to anyone."

Xiaowan cut the window clumsily, thinking that since Miss Yue was that intelligent, she probably wouldn't do anything to Ling Chaofeng. Maybe it was just a coincidence, but she was too considerate back then.

However, she had only thought too much and had not hurt anyone, so there was no need for her to feel guilty. It was not a wrong thing for her to want to protect her husband.

As the four of them talked, Susu and Auntie Chen had unknowingly fallen asleep. The Xiaowan did not sleep, but thought about Ling Chaofeng who was upstairs, suddenly, the Aunt Zhang beside them crawled up, quietly grabbed his pillow, grabbed his clothes, and pushed the door open.

Hearing that they were about to go downstairs, and should be returning to her and Uncle Biao's own house, Xiaowan chuckled. She also crawled up and quietly closed the door, then ran back upstairs like a little kitten.

Ling Chaofeng did not lock the door, but also did not sleep. Hearing the creaking sound, a petite figure appeared within the dim candlelight, and slowly crawled onto the bed. Originally, she did not want to wake Hubby up, but Ling Chaofeng suddenly sat up and threw her down.

"Hubby …" The Xiaowan said, "If I'm not by your side, I won't be able to sleep."

Ling Chaofeng hugged her in his embrace, feeling really comfortable. He said lazily: "Me too."

The next day, at twenty-eight, the female servants were pasted with window flowers. Although Ling Xiao Inn was located in the wilderness, when the window flowers were pasted together with lanterns, the New Year's ambiance rose.

After lunch, Xiaowan and Susu were washing dishes by the well. Ling Chaofeng had sent hot water to them, but Xiaowan asked Susu, "Is the capital very big?"

When Susu first came to the capital, he had been pampered for a while and it could be said that she had witnessed the beauty of the capital before. She had even been a guest in a different house with the old master.

She told the Xiaowan everything that she knew, "The capital city should be around the size of four or five Baisha Town. They might be even bigger than that. But there's no concubine in the palace, only an empress. The wife of the mansion often talks about it, but she doesn't understand that there's only a few people living in such a big place.

The Xiaowan said, "They are really strange. On one hand, they can't tolerate you, and on the other, they are worrying about the Empress."

Susu sighed: "Let's not talk about them anymore. Now that I have become a prisoner following the old master, I wonder what kind of days they are living, it's all about retribution."

Xiaowan thought of the Lord Sun, Mrs. Sun and Susu's old master. It seemed like the men in the capital were either heartless and heartless, or they treated women as playthings. It was a place with no human feelings, so she suddenly didn't want to go anymore.

He then said, "I was hoping that my husband would bring me to the capital to broaden my horizons. I really don't want to go now."

Susu said: "In terms of prosperity, the capital is like a heaven. If you're just going to have fun, then you might as well go and have a look. If you want to stay here for a long time, it will be difficult. The new Queen who will be conferred the title on New Year's Day comes from the Chuanyu. I think it would be difficult for her to get used to living in the capital. "

"Are you not used to eating?" The Xiaowan asked, "I heard from Uncle Biao that the Chuanyu is spicy."

Susu nodded his head: "This is only one of them. The most important thing is that the things in the capital and the people here are all very complicated." She laughed as she spoke. "A person like me can't even touch the empress's toes, what's there to worry about?"

The Xiaowan laughed: "That's not true, we shouldn't worry, we can wish them well. The emperor and the empress are fine, the Daqi is good, the Daqi is good, we can live and work in peace. Look at the Liang Empire on the side, they have been fought by us for two years.

The water in Ling Chaofeng's hands was almost cold, but he was amused by Xiaowan's words, as she began to use idioms, about living in peace and working hard, about how the citizens were not living well, about how he was still small, and started to worry about the country's affairs.

He quickly sent out the hot water, and after he left, he vaguely heard Susu say: "Xiaowan, your fate is really good. I did not say that Manager Ling dotes on you so much, but I have seen those noble people before.

Ling Chaofeng did not continue listening, but Xiaowan said proudly: "Aunt said, him marrying me is also his good fortune."

The young lady s were laughing by the well. In the afternoon, they heard the Uncle Biao telling them everything he had heard, that winter was short and winter was long. In the blink of an eye, two days passed, and it was New Year's Eve.

After dinner, they went to the back door to set off fireworks. Xiaowan was so scared by the firecrackers that she went into Ling Chaofeng's arms, but when she saw the dazzling fireworks, she became dumbstruck.

"Hubby, you look really good." The Xiaowan said, "So this is the legendary fireworks."

Ling Chaofeng asked: "Do you like it?"

Xiaowan nodded furiously. "I like it."

Ling Chaofeng said: "Every New Year's Eve, the imperial palace will burn with fireworks. When I was young, I would stand on the roof of my inn with my father every year to watch. Those fireworks are unobtainable outside, and the fireworks are even bigger and higher, able to illuminate half of the capital city. "Next year's New Year's Eve, let's go to the capital to celebrate the New Year's Eve. How about we take you to see the fireworks?"

The Xiaowan hesitated for a moment before saying, "Let's go for the new year. We won't stay here any longer, let's just come back immediately, shall we?"

Ling Chaofeng knew that he had chatted with Susu during the afternoon and was afraid of her.

Xiaowan felt itchy in her heart and took the initiative to ask her husband for it. In the end, she couldn't take it anymore, so she asked her husband to let her go after begging and acting like a spoiled child.

young lady fell asleep exhausted. In the morning of the next day, she was kissed and woke up. The sky was bright.

It was still quiet inside and outside the tavern. Xiaowan looked at her husband and her heart quivered.

"Why did you call my name?" Ling Chaofeng asked.

"I suddenly want to shout." Xiaowan laughed foolishly.

"From then on, I will call you by your name. I love hearing you call me by my name." Ling Chaofeng said as he handed over a red embroidered bag to the Xiaowan, "This is your new year's money."

Xiaowan sat up and opened her purse. Inside was a gold ingot, the last time she collected the money was when she was five years old and it was given to her by Uncle Zhou from the Blacksmith Shop.

She threw herself at her husband and kissed him again and again. Ling Chaofeng patted her butt and asked: "Who couldn't take it last night?"

"I don't know …" She smiled coquettishly, her face red as she mumbled, "Chao Feng, how could I have such a good life? I'm not dreaming, right? Please don't wake up, please don't wake up."

His life had undergone a tremendous change, and even in the past four to five months, his heart would occasionally feel uneasy, because he was too satisfied and happy. However, if he was like Susu, who had escaped hell and returned to the human world, it wouldn't be a big deal anymore, but she would have just gone from hell to heaven.

On the first day of the new year, the inn was brimming with joy. Uncle Biao and Aunt Zhang had also prepared New Year's money for Xiaowan, Susu and Ershan, causing the few young people to be extremely happy.

Xiaowan stood in front of the door, watching the sun move to the middle of the sky. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew past and blew down the notice for the empress's grand wedding.

The Xiaowan hurriedly picked it up and ran back to the counter to ask Ling Chaofeng for some paste. Ling Chaofeng said that after today, the notice would not be needed, and it would be fine even if it was not, but the Xiaowan asked, "Hubby, in this short period of time, has the emperor and the Empress gotten married?"

Ling Chaofeng said: "It should be done already, it's time for the national banquet at night."

"What kind of person is our new empress? If only she was a chef in the palace, she could make spicy food for her."

At this time, the Aunt Zhang, the Auntie Chen and Susu came down from the stairs and called out to her. "Evening, let's go for a stroll and let the shopkeeper and your uncle look after the house."
