There is a Wangfu wife at home

Chapter 528
The next morning, when the sky was dim, Luo Cheng woke up.

Li Jiaoniang slept like mud.

Luo Cheng carefully took Li Jiaoniang's arms away from her neck, dressed lightly and got up.

He is going to light firecrackers.

Firecrackers welcome the new year.

When he walked out of the bedroom, Luo Cheng took a few purses he packed the night before in his hand.

The purse is vermillion, embroidered with golden blessing characters.

This kind of red envelope is used by every household during the Chinese New Year.

Rich people decorate their homes with gold, silver and agate.

People who have no money will also put some copper coins in it for celebration.

Luo Cheng thought of when he was a child, when his adoptive parents and father Luo in Jinshan Village accompanied him during the Chinese New Year.

Early in the morning on this day, they would give him a vermilion purse containing eight or ten wen.

He always excitedly can't wait to open the purse.

He is happy even if he only has a few pennies of pocket money a year.

only……

Good people don't live long.

They passed away too soon.

Luo Cheng took a breath, suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, and strode towards the front house.

Mrs. Tian and Mrs. Sang came to congratulate her, "Guan Luo has auspicious new year."

Luo Cheng handed over two purses and said with a smile, "Auspicious, auspicious."

The two happily took it in their hands.

Luo Cheng smiled and said, "I'm going to light the firecrackers, you guys prepare breakfast."

"The mutton soup is simmering on the stove, and the beef buns have just been made. Officer Luo has lit the firecrackers, and the beef buns have been steamed, so we can have breakfast." Mrs. Sang said with a smile.

Luo Cheng said, "Jiaoniang is still sleeping, you can steam the buns later, I'll just have a bowl of mutton soup."

"Okay." Mrs. Sang nodded.

Luo Cheng continued to walk towards the gate of the house.

Lady Tian and Lady Sang just opened their wallets to have a look.

There are two silver handles inside.

Look at the weight, there are two or three taels of weight.

The two laughed together and said, "This official Luo is quite generous."

Luo Cheng walked to the door of the house.

The door of the house was already wide open, and Juan, who was wearing a leather hat and rolled up his sleeves, was standing at the door of the house, looking at the two red lanterns of the new house.

On the huge lantern, the character Li is written on one side and the character Fu is written on the other.

Hu An sighed in his heart, the house's surname is Li, Luo Cheng is willing to be his son-in-law!
But then again, Mrs. Li treated Luo Cheng very well, and she was quite comfortable being Luo Cheng's son-in-law.

Well, does he want to be his son-in-law too?
He is an orphan and has no parents to support him.

"Fifth son, the firecrackers are set off." Luo Cheng walked up and said.

Juan turned around and replied with a smile, "Well, here we come."

Luo Cheng handed him a red envelope, "Take it, I'm one year older, fifth son." He patted his head as he spoke.

Juan smiled and took it in his hand, "Thank you, Mr. Luo."

Luo Cheng walked into the south room where Juan lived at the gate of the house.

The firecrackers sent by Zhao Cong the day before were placed in the outer room of the south room.

Juan opened the vermilion purse, and found two silver zippers inside. He was very happy, must it be two or three?It can be worth two or three thousand guan.

He stuffed the purse into his arms and said, "By the way, Master, I just saw the Mu family's carriage passing by."

When the Mu family's carriage reached the gate of the house, the wheel hit a rock and tilted.

The carriage stopped, and the driver got out of the carriage to look at the wheels.

That's why Juan saw clearly that the coachman driving the carriage was exactly the follower of Mu Xuan.

Luo Cheng said casually, "Many horse-drawn carriages pass by the road in front of the house every day. Pass through this alley, and at the end is the Royal Street. It's not unusual for the Mu family's carriage to pass by."

Juan stretched out his hand and scratched his head, and said to himself, "Where will Mu Xuan's entourage drive the carriage early in the morning on the first day of the new year?"

Luo Cheng called to him, "Fifth son, don't worry about other family's affairs, let's set off firecrackers."

Hu An cheerfully patted his sleeves and ran over, "Okay." He smiled again, "Dong Luo's family, our firecrackers are so big, they are bigger than those of other families."

Luo Cheng smiled and said, "The one sent by the county prince's mansion is certainly not small."

The two worked together to move the heavy firecrackers to the door of the house.

Luo Cheng took a burning incense stick and lit the hemp rope wrapped in salt lime to attract money.

Crackling explosions sounded immediately.

Juan clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Ah, it's the New Year——Master, the New Year is auspicious!"

Luo Cheng looked at the big red lantern at the gate of the house and said, "Good luck."

……

At the house rented by Li Peiyu and Mrs. Li, the servant opened the door and saw the Mu family's carriage arriving.

It was Mu Xuan's entourage who came.

The servant had seen it many times, so he was so frightened that he hurried forward and asked, "So it's Brother Yu who is next to Young Master Mu. Auspicious New Year, Brother Yu."

Yu Neng jumped out of the parking space, and said coldly, "Is your wife at the house?"

The servant thought, what happened to Yu Neng who came here with a cold face on the morning of the first day of the new year?

It's disrespectful to ask "Your Madam" instead of "Second Madam".

"Yes, yes, brother Yu, please." The servant opened the door of the house wide and greeted Mu Xuan's entourage, Yu Neng.

The status of the Mu and Li families is very different, and the servants of the Li family have never dared to offend the Mu family, even the servants.

"Look at the carriage for me, I'll come out right away." Yu Neng strode into the house with his hands behind his back.

The servant's heart skipped a beat, and he replied, "Okay, brother Yu, don't worry."

Yu Neng walked to the shadow wall and met the woman next to Mrs. Li Er.

The mother-in-law already knew about Li Peiyu, and when she saw Mu Xuan's entourage approaching with a cold face, she turned pale with fright.

"This is Brother Yu. The New Year is auspicious." The old woman smiled and licked her face.

Yu Neng just said, "I'm looking for your wife."

The mother-in-law smiled a little stiffly, "The second lady is in the back hall, please come with me."

Still with his hands behind his back, Yu Neng followed his mother-in-law to the main hall of the back house.

At this time, Li Peiyu's eldest brother and sister-in-law came with their two children and were talking with Mrs. Li and Li Peiyu in the main hall, wishing the new year.

The mother-in-law led Yu Neng into the main hall, and the smiles on everyone's faces froze.

Especially Li Peiyu, whose face was as pale as death with fright.

Li Peiyu's eldest brother and sister-in-law greeted her with smiles, not knowing what had happened.

"Hey, isn't this brother Yu next to Mu Xuan? Please sit down." Li Jiadalang stood up and said, pointing to the guest chair.

Mrs. Li squeezed her sleeves and said with a forced smile, "Da Lang, brother Yu brought his cousin Mu Xuan to come to pay New Year's greetings, and reward him soon."

Li Dalang smiled and said, "Okay, mother." As he spoke, he winked at his daughter-in-law, meaning to get the red envelope quickly, this is the younger sister's future husband's family.

Li Dalang's daughter-in-law stood still, sneering in her heart, your sister-in-law came, why did you ask me to take the reward?

While the couple were making eye contact, Yu Neng had already taken out the divorce letter written by Mu Xuan from his sleeve.

"I came here early this morning. I was ordered by our young master to deliver a letter. Please show it to your family."

Mrs. Li became trembling.

Li Dalang was at a loss, "Everyone lives so close, what can't be said in person, and you still have to send a letter?"

Yu Neng smiled, "Of course I have to write a letter, there is nothing to prove it." He said again, "By the way, our little son said that the token sent by our old man back then asked me to take it back to him. An emerald jade bracelet, please Second Madam find it as soon as possible."

When returning the token, needless to say, this means retiring the engagement.

Li Peiyu was so frightened that she collapsed on the chair.

The jadeite bracelet was on her hand right now.

She often uses it to show off.

This bracelet was given by the empress to the eldest lady of the Mu family. When Mu and Li's parents got engaged, the bracelet was sent to Li Jiaoniang's maternal ancestor's family, the Su family, and became a token of engagement, and finally came into her hands.

No, no, she doesn't want to take it out.

Li Peiyu clutched the bracelet in her hand, a thousand times she didn't want to send it back.

"Oh, by the way, there is also a token from your family to Mr. Xuan, and he asked me to bring it back to you. He said that he wants to reconsider the marriage between the two families." Yu Neng said.

"Reconsider, what do you mean?" Li Dalang, who was still confused, asked Yu Neng.

Yu Neng sneered, "Of course, our young master Xuan thinks that his marriage with Miss Li Si is not a good match, so we need to think again."

Li Dalang was taken aback, and shouted, "What? What's wrong with my sister? Why did he do this?"

Li Dalang's wife also became anxious, "If you don't make it clear, we won't retreat!"

Mrs. Li's son, who couldn't study well and was incapable of doing business, took the money given by Mrs. Li and lived in a mess.

Mrs. Li's older three daughters also married ordinary families, and they are not very rich.

The best relatives are only about the same as Mrs. Li's family.

Only the youngest daughter is here, and the relatives are relatives of the third-rank university scholar's family. Not to mention the high family status, the family is rich.

The second room of the Li family did not want to lose this close relative.
