Chapter 118 The first month (2)
Lu Mingxuan nodded with a smile and said, "Sister also cares about me." Then, she took out a purse from her sleeve, handed it to Danqing and said, "This is for you, you have worked hard to serve me this year, even though I say I didn't say anything, I knew it in my heart, as long as you serve me with all your heart, I will definitely not treat you badly in the future!"

Danqing didn't expect that she would also get extra rewards. She knew that she was different from everyone in Jifang Pavilion, that life and death of Jifang Pavilion depended on Lu Mingxuan, so when she saw that everyone in Jifang Pavilion had received generous rewards from Lu Mingxuan, Although I was a little envious, but didn't have any other thoughts, but didn't think that I would have a share, so I was surprised and happy at the moment, blushing and muttering: "In addition to the monthly money from the public, the girl has given me an extra amount on weekdays." It's a month's money, and now I'm being rewarded again, I really deserve it..."

Although Lu Mingxuan relied heavily on Danqing on weekdays, the places of the two maidservants in her house had long been taken by Banxiang and Banqin. The second-class maid only had to pay a penny, so Lu Mingxuan gave Danqing an extra penny every month, that's why Danqing said this.

"I said you deserve what you deserve. Let's just take it. It's not too much, but it's just a lottery." Lu Mingxuan laughed, as long as she is dedicated to her, she will never be wronged, Ji Fang Everyone in the pavilion is like this, so is Danqing.

Hearing this, Danqing took the purse with both hands and weighed it in his hand. He felt that it was not heavy. Xie En accepted it—not wanting to wait until she went to bed at night, she opened her purse and looked, but it was two gold coins of one tael, which was 20 taels of silver, which was more than her monthly money for a year. In an instant, there were mixed feelings, and the only thought left in her mind was that she had been with Miss Ding as her master for the rest of her life, and she would never frown even if she went up the mountain of swords and under the frying pan for her!
As for Lu Zhongxian's Qi family and Lu Mingfu, Lu Mingxuan originally wanted to give them some things, but she thought that the good things on her face were either added by Lu Zhongxian for herself, or they were obtained from the Duke's mansion. Well, if I gave them something for nothing, and they asked me where I came from, it would be a mess, so I can only press this idea and decide in my heart that when Lu Mingfu gets married in the future, I will definitely give her a big gift, and then... It is the child in Qi's womb, regardless of gender, she will give her a big gift in the future.

On New Year's Eve, Lu's family still had four tables as last year, but because of the addition of the Qi family, everyone in the Lu family felt that it was different. At least the New Year's Eve dinner was more sumptuous than in previous years.

The New Year’s Eve dinner is all organized by Qi’s maids and women. Each dish has a very auspicious and pleasant name, for example, braised crucian carp with silver thread is called "Nian Nian Yu Yu", Yipin hot pot is called "Tuan Tuan Yuan Yuan", yellow Osmanthus persimmon cakes are called "everything goes well", red dates with glutinous rice balls are called "smiles are always open", yellow and white steamed buns are called "gold and silver full of warehouses"... etc., this is Qi's habit of combining neighbors and his own family. In fact, Small families almost have this habit when they celebrate the New Year. Although they know that the possibility of realizing it is very small, it is more or less auspicious, and the Lu family’s New Year’s Eve dinner is also rich in previous years, but they have not given these meaningful names. Lu Zhongxian is a big Men don't care about these things, but Lu Mingxuan and Lu Mingfu don't. Now that they have the Qi family, they finally make up for this vacancy.

Because of this, the Lu family's New Year's atmosphere is much stronger than in previous years.

Lu Zhongxian is really happy, his two daughters have grown up, the relationship has improved than before, and the newly married Qi family is also quite in his mind, the most important thing is that he is about to have a son, what else in this world can be better than a husband and wife Xiangde, both sons and daughters, family harmony is more worthy of joy and satisfaction?Drinking on his own, he had drunk himself eighty percent first, and went to rest with the help of Qi Shi and Xiaotao.

But when it was almost time to give birth, he woke up in time and bid farewell to the old and welcome the new with his wife and daughter.

Not long after, there was a sudden "bang" outside, but it was the Jingzhao Mansion who lit up the fireworks to tell the time, and the time had come!

Immediately afterwards, a series of "cracking" firecrackers sounded, and the whole capital seemed to be boiling. Lu Zhongxian hurriedly ordered the servants to take out the fireworks and firecrackers that had been prepared, and personally led the people to set off cannons in the yard to welcome the new year.

Only the firecrackers rang a few times, and he rushed back into the house like an arrow from the string, ordering the maids and women to take the quilts one after another, "Quick, cover the doors and windows for me, carefully startled!" The child in your wife's womb!"

This made Qi blushed with embarrassment, and said angrily: "It's so expensive, the master is too careful, and I'm not afraid that the two girls will laugh at you."

Lu Mingxuan and Lu Mingfu burst out laughing, thinking that such a father is so cute, and all the maids and women in the room also pursed their lips and giggled endlessly.

Amid the laughter in the room, Lu Mingxuan looked out of the window with long or short "ZZZ" sounds, spraying out in sequence in red, yellow, blue, white, green and purple colors, embellishing the sky above her entire yard into fiery trees and silver flowers. The spark of the bright world made me feel mixed feelings for a moment.

As if in the blink of an eye, she has been reborn for two years. Everything in her previous life and even the tragedy before her death, sometimes she even wondered if it was just a nightmare for her, and her real life is now. life?But the hatred and remorse that were deep in her bones, her apology to Lu Zhongxian and Lu Mingfu and her poor child, and her body that would feel aching every time it snowed and the tingling pain when she saw the light at night The eyes reminded her clearly again that it was not a dream, those things actually happened!

She couldn't help but rejoice every time. Fortunately, God gave her another chance. Fortunately, God allowed her to be reborn when everything was still too late. Otherwise, how could she experience such happiness and satisfaction as she is now, and at the same time bring The happiness and fulfillment of the people she cares about?
Although her true identity is still like a ticking time bomb that will explode at some point, at least Lu Wenzhu has saved her life, and her identity has already been revealed in front of Princess Fuhui at this time in her previous life, but this At this time in the first life, the Princess Mansion is still calm. It can be seen that due to her hard work, things in the previous life have changed a lot, so she has the confidence to change her entire destiny and completely control her destiny in her own hands. !
Lu Mingxuan secretly cheered herself up, her heart gradually cleared up, and the colorful colors of the sky reflected her beautiful face, as bright as a blooming flower.

After New Year's Eve, it was still the same as last year. Lu Mingxuan and Lu Mingfu only stayed at home until the fifth day of the first lunar month, and then returned to the Duke's Mansion. I personally sent the two sisters back.

A family of four came to Derongtaiju for a while, and Mrs. Lu was playing cards with her three daughters-in-law for fun. It was rare that Princess Fuhui was there, and Lu Mingfeng and Lu Mingzhu were joking in the Nuan Pavilion, so the atmosphere in the room was very tense. It is enthusiastic.
