Chapter 50 Sweet Dreams

Mu Yan found that he had a sweet dream.

He dreamed that he saw the little liar last night, and the little liar actually ran away in his dream all night.

In the dream, she slept sprawled out, and it was so cold that she didn't even cover herself with a quilt. If there hadn't been a brazier in the room, she would have frozen to death.

She slept so ugly, and she was still riding on the quilt. Is that a position for a noble lady?

If I grew up in a high-gate courtyard, I'm afraid my grandma would break the ruler and my legs would be broken. Tsk.

That black hair covered the entire bed.

I wonder if my hair will wake me up at night. Tsk.

Women are trouble.

It took him a long time to fiddle with her hair before she straightened her messy hair. Unexpectedly, she turned over! She almost pressed his hand, phew.

He was so frightened that he stopped breathing in his sleep.

He didn't know if he was dreaming about something delicious, but his mouth kept moving, making him unable to hold back...

It was she who harmed him, it was she who made him unable to control himself.

Mu Yan touched his lips, which were soft and seemed to be stained with water. He held the corners of his lips, turned over, and continued to sleep.

Outside the house, it was already standing two steps away, and from time to time, I poked my head into the house.

"Do you want to wake up the young master?"

Li Yi was silent and said, "Let the young master sleep."

"Young master is not a sleepy person." Kan Er raised his head and looked at the sky. At this point, didn't he usually wake up early and go to the school field to practice boxing?

What's more, today is the first day of the New Year, so I'm afraid the Madam and Madam are both up. They have to go to the ancestral hall to offer incense later, so it's not too late.

"Let the young master sleep a little longer. Let the servants bring the hot water first."

"good."

After a while, the two of them looked at each other. What did the young master do last night? Why was he so sleepy this morning?

He looked up at the sky and knocked on the door: "Master, Master, it's time to get up."

Mu Yan woke up in a daze and touched the bedside, but there was nothing there. When he opened his eyes, he saw that the box on the bedside was missing.

Thinking about last night's dream, I felt very good. I asked outside the house and shouted: "Come in."

Huo Xi opened the box... wow, it was a butterfly flower inlaid with pearls and jade.

So lovely.

I took it out carefully, held it carefully in my hand, shook it, and the two wings of the butterfly were still swaying gently. The workmanship is really exquisite.

Is this a birthday gift?

"Vanilla, Xia He, who gave this to you?"

The two maids came closer, shouting and shaking their heads, "I don't know. I didn't let you go. I didn't see anyone come in this morning."

The two maids were sleeping outside her room now. Even if they left early in the morning, there was still one person in the room, and neither of them saw her?

Huo Xi stared at Bu Yao, his eyes flashing.

A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he carefully put it back into the box. He just reached out to ask the two maids to take it and put it away. After thinking about it, he put it back on the pillow.

"Don't take it away. Put it on my bedside first. I want to appreciate it two more times."

"yes."

"Girl, do you know who gave it to me? Could it be that it was given by the master and his wife, and the girl got it back last night and even forgot about it?"

"Eh? Well, I forgot." He hesitated.

After she had washed up, the whole family was waiting to celebrate her birthday. As always, Yang personally cooked a large bowl of longevity noodles for her early in the morning.

"Thank you, mother."

"Silly boy, how can you thank me for this?" Yang looked at her with a smile and gently helped her with her hair.

This black hair is extremely well-groomed, as black as satin, and the light is discernible.

Fortunately, the child managed to live a happy life on his own and led his family to live a happy life. Otherwise, if he were still on the fishing boat, he would probably only have a chicken coop like grass, which would be blown yellow and brittle by the river wind.

Just pull it off, how can you have such a good head of black hair.

Huo Erhuai was also looking at her with a smile.

The child he has raised for so many years has finally grown up. He raised him alone. Looking at his daughter who is becoming more and more outstanding now, he feels very proud.

"Sister, this is An An's gift to you!"

"Wow, An An also prepared a gift for my sister. That's great. Let her see what it is."

When he opened it, he saw a snow satin handkerchief with a red plum embroidered on it. "Wow, it's so beautiful. Thank you An An."

"No thank you."

An An had some pride on her face, "An An took her own money and asked the sister with the best skills in the workshop to embroider it! An An paid for it. It was An An's own money."

"Wow, thank you An An, my sister likes An An the most!"

An An was held in her arms by her sister, and she happily kissed her face. Her sister liked the gift he gave her, and she looked happy.

Nian'er also gave him a gift, which was a portrait he painted of his sister looking at the account book at home. Although the technique was immature, it already had some semblance, and the painting conveyed the charm of Huo Xi.

"Thank you Nian'er, sister likes it very much." Huo Xi was very happy and slapped his two brothers on the head.

Huo Nian was very happy, "I will draw a portrait of my sister every year from now on. I will get better and better at drawing in the future."

"Okay, sister, wait."

"And I, myself, and my parents, we also want a portrait every year! My brother also paints for us." An An shouted and wanted.

Nian'er responded with a smile.

Huo Erhuai and Yang smiled as they watched the three children sharing a bowl of longevity noodles, feeling that their days were going happily.

In the tomb of the ancestors of the Zhang family, the servant who was looking at the tomb was holding a bowl of rice, taking a bite from time to time, then looking towards the graveyard, taking a bite, taking a look, and then looking up at the sky.

It was already afternoon, and the Duke of Guo still didn't get up. He was already hungry after waiting, so he had to cook and add some food to fill his stomach.

It's strange that this is the first day of the Lunar New Year, coming to burn money for the ancestors?

Last night, on New Year's Eve, my ancestors had a dream. There was no money to spend underground. Otherwise, who would come to their ancestors' graves early in the morning?

Tsk tsk.

The person watching the grave is alone, with no relatives or dependents, and it doesn't matter whether he celebrates the New Year or not. For him, every day is the same.

But it’s also nice to be able to get more silver rewards from the host’s family during the New Year.

A person like him, who has no house, no land, and no skills to make a living, cannot survive outside. He can look after the graves of the Duke's Mansion, have clothes to wear, have enough to eat, and have his master's family pick up the bones after his death. What else can he do?

It's great to be buried next to the Zhang family's ancestral grave.

The gravekeeper looked up at the sky again. It was a gloomy day and he didn't know if it would snow.

The Duke of Guo ran over early in the morning and had not eaten at this hour. He glanced at his bowl and realized that the rice he had cooked might not be appreciated by the Duke of Guo.

He squatted on the slope again, putting rice into his mouth and looking at the Duke in the graveyard.

Zhang Fu took the handkerchief and wiped the dust on his late wife's tombstone over and over again.

Then he looked at the small grave next to his deceased wife, and he was in a daze, his soul flying to the sky.

Finally, I sat down in front of the monument and started chanting.

He didn't sleep all night last night, and his mind was in a state of confusion. The faces of Huo Xi and Huo Nian, the brother and sister, flashed alternately, as well as their eyes that resembled those of his deceased wife.

After looking at the portrait of his late wife all night long, the tall man actually shed tears all night long.

"Rou'er, you must blame me. It's because of my blindness that I let my two children live outside..."
