Ning Chen loves his wife

Chapter 449 New Year's Gift
When Zhuo Nan disappeared in front of everyone with Qing Shang's figure, a servant approached Steward Zhou and asked suspiciously: "The Liuying Water Pavilion used to be the residence of the eldest son, and it is much bigger than this Hui Yaxuan. What about the girl...?"

Butler Zhou cast a sharp glance at the servant. "Master's thoughts are guessed at will by you, a lowly slave?"

The boy immediately kept silent and bowed his head to be taught.

Zhuo Nan went back to the room, took a bath and changed clothes and went to rest on the couch.

The next day was the first day of the new year, Zhuo Nan got up early to put on new clothes, after breakfast, Qing Dai and other maids who were also wearing new clothes greeted her and congratulated her one by one, Zhuo Nan sat The chair gave them reward silver in person.

Then it was the turn of the third-class maids and wives from the outer courtyard to enter the room and line up to congratulate.

Zhuo Nan sat on the highest seat, enjoying the New Year's congratulations from the servants, and Nanny Qian next to her was in charge of distributing the rewards, so she just had to watch.

Liandong came in from the courtyard and whispered something in Zhuo Nan's ear. "Miss, all the servants from other courtyards are here to wish you New Year's greetings, do you see...?"

A few days ago, it was rumored that the young lady had a reputation for being an intrusive person, and those servants looked at the young lady with strange eyes.

Last night on New Year's Eve, the master suddenly announced the young lady's status as a prostitute, and these snobbish servants wanted to come to pay a visit today.

"I don't see you!" Zhuo Nan got up and walked to the inner room, and explained: "Miss, I will take a nap for a while, and whoever wants to visit can stand in the courtyard and wait until I wake up."

After handing out the rewards, Nanny Qian saw the slaves and maids in the outer courtyard retreat, looked at Liandong and said: "Miss doesn't like those obtrusive servants, from now on except the masters of each courtyard, all these people will be dismissed, don't mess with them Miss is upset."

Liandong nodded and said: "Then I will tell the guards at the gate now, so that they don't let anyone in casually." Turning around and leaving.

In the inner room, Zhuo Nan was about to go back to sleep, sitting on the bed and watching Qing Dai standing still, frowning slightly.

Qing Dai lowered her head and reminded: "Miss, you can't rest now. You forgot that this is the New Year, you have to go to the main hall of the North Courtyard to pay New Year's greetings to the master."

Zhuo Nan cast a sidelong glance at Qing Dai, and said flatly: "No, come and serve me undress."

"Yes." Qing Dai stopped admonishing her, and stepped forward to serve her on the couch to rest.

The main hall of the North Court.

The prime minister and the prince of Zhou sat in the highest positions on the left and the right respectively.Steward Zhou and Le An stood behind them respectively.

Zhuo Qing stepped forward gracefully and bowed down with all five bodies on the ground. "Daughter congratulates father and Lord Zhou on the New Year's Eve."

Steward Zhou and Le An immediately stepped forward to offer rewards on behalf of their masters.

What Prince Zhou prepared was a bank note, and what the prime minister rewarded was expensive jewelry.

Zhuo Qing took the reward with her own hands, and the big maid beside her, Bai Zhi, immediately helped her up.

After Zhuo Qing paid her respects, she took her maid, Bai Zhi, back to the side.

Zhuo Ran and her maid Banxia knelt down to pay New Year's greetings.

After a night, and with the best ointment, Zhuo Ran's face did not show that he had been beaten at all.

As for Ban Xia, who was kneeling on the ground at that time, although Zhuo Ran punched and kicked her, she was injured all over her body, but her face was intact.

After Zhuo Ran received the same reward with her own hands, Ban Xia helped her up.

Seeing her haggard face, the prime minister said with concern: "I'm not feeling well, go back to the hospital to rest earlier."

"Thank you father for your concern, and my daughter will leave first." Zhuo Ran was still wearing heavy makeup, and after another salute to Prince Zhou, she left with Ban Xia.

Without seeing Zhuo Nan, the Prime Minister's eyes flashed with a ruthless look.He glanced at Zhuo Qing in the corner with a fatherly look. "Qing'er, you also go back to the hospital to be raised."

Zhuo Qing smiled weakly at the prime minister. "Father, your health is not good, don't be too tired." She saluted Lord Zhou and took Bai Zhi and turned to leave.

Zhou Hao saw that he didn't wait for Zhuo Nan, so he got up and said directly to the prime minister, "The prime minister hasn't recovered from his typhoid fever, so he should stay on the couch more. I don't want to disturb you, so I take my leave." He walked out of the main hall with Le An.

The prime minister nodded in response, staring at Zhou Hao's leaving back with deep eyes.

Next, the aunts came in to pay New Year's greetings, but only saw the prime minister.

The prime minister couldn't bear to see these concubines at all, so he handed them all over to Butler Zhou, and returned to Aoxue Pavilion by himself.

After Zhuo Qing and Zhuo Ran left the main hall, they did not return to the hospital, but went to Tianyinju to pay New Year greetings to Mrs. Li.

The two contracted the cold, and Mrs. Li was not in good health, so she got up and said goodbye immediately after receiving the reward after the New Year greetings.

Yinqiao personally sent them out of the room, and went back to wait on Mrs. Li.

Zhuo Qing and Zhuo Ran then went to their respective aunt's residence, walked around, and then went back and forth.

Zhuo Qing looked at Zhuo Ran's heavy make-up, and said with disgust in her heart and caring face: "Sister Ran, you are sicker than sister, why don't you rest in the house? You have to pay attention to yourself when you are sick to greet your father and mother. body."

Zhuo Ran said with a listless expression: "It's only once a year, how can a daughter be disrespectful? I don't waste a lot of effort to pray for a new year, and besides, my sister, I'm not too sick to get out of bed." Then she fell back a few steps, with a look on her face. He looked weak and didn't want to talk too much.

Zhuo Qing saw that Zhuo Ran deliberately slowed down and didn't want to talk to her, a look of disdain flashed in her eyes, and she took Bai Zhi away quickly.

Zhuo Ran watched as Zhuo Qing led Bai Zhi farther and farther away, and finally turned into Yue Die Xuan, then quickened her pace and continued to walk forward with Ban Xia.

Walking to the gate of Baihuaxuan, there seemed to be a person standing at the gate of Huiyaxuan not far away.Taking a closer look, it was Le'an, the close servant of Prince Zhou.

Zhuo Ran stopped walking and saw that Le An was talking to someone inside the door.

Ban Xia followed Zhuo Ran's gaze, and said to herself: "The servant next to Prince Zhou came to Hui Yaxuan and didn't know what he wanted to do?" Looking up at Zhuo Ran's side face, he said flatteringly: " Miss, do you need a servant to go and inquire about it?" In the past, Zhuo Ran liked to ask her to inquire about the affairs of the mansion.

Zhuo Ran glared at her coldly and said, "Miss, I can't bother with my own affairs, and I'm not interested in prying into other people's secrets." She left with a flick of her sleeves.

Ban Xia took a quick look at Le An, and followed Zhuo Ran into Bai Hua Xuan.

Out of the corner of Le An's eyes, he saw the backs of Zhuo Ran's master and servant as they entered Baihua Xuan, looked straight at Liandong standing in the gate of Hui Ya Xuan, and said: "This is a New Year's gift prepared by my master for Miss Zhuo Nan. It has been accepted. My master said that one should not treat one more favorably than another, so he specially asked the slave to deliver it."

Liandong held the brocade box and looked at Le An with doubts on his face: "I have told you that the lady is resting. I am a slave and cannot accept any gifts on behalf of the master. Take it back quickly!" The brocade box was handed over to him.

Unexpectedly, Le An jumped back and said, "No! There is no reason to take back the things that the prince sent out. If I take them back, wouldn't it be a pity that the prince will definitely destroy them when he gets angry? I'll show your lady after she wakes up." that is."

　PS; Thank you Yang Xiaohan for the reward of "100".
