Si Ning packed up and went to the courtyard.
I saw the corner filled with roses and couldn't help but feel strange.
"When did you prepare these?"
The little maid in charge of cleaning the yard hurriedly stepped forward and replied, "Madam, I don't know something. The third master ordered people to prepare it early in the morning. He said he wanted to give you a surprise."
The succession of gifts all morning really surprised Si Ning.
With an uncontrollable smile on her face, she handed over the purse in her hand.
"Happy New Year."
The little girl was startled and hurriedly threw away the broom in her hand and wiped her hands on her body before she dared to pick it up with both hands.
The wallet is heavy, and there must be a lot of money.
"Madam, this...is this too much?"
Most of the other owners of the yard only rewarded them with a few copper coins, and those with more would be given regular money. However, Si Ning gave him golden beans, and the little maid did not dare to accept them.
"Take it, everyone has worked hard this year, and this is what everyone deserves."
Si Ning prepared purses for everyone in the courtyard, and they all contained golden beans.
The maids and servants knelt on the ground, extremely grateful to Si Ning.
Si Ning hurriedly asked people to get up and gave two larger purses to Qiu Ju and Si Yihan.
The two of them said in unison without answering.
"It is the duty of my slave to serve my wife, and I would never dare to accept this money."
Si Ning forced the purse into their arms and said with a smile.
"What are your responsibilities? You just want to celebrate the New Year by receiving red envelopes. Look how old you two are. You are so old-fashioned. If this continues, no one will dare to propose marriage to you."
Qiu Ju is a girl, she is thin-skinned after all, so she felt a little embarrassed when Si Ning said that.
Si Yihan had no expression and replied calmly.
"Madam, I am not getting married." I will stay by your side for the rest of my life until you no longer need me.
Si Yihan said the next words in his heart, and Si Ning laughed at him for being stupid.
"There is no way to get married. You are still young. When you are older, I will help you choose a good marriage."
"Qiu Ju too, your age is not suitable now."
In ancient times, people emphasized getting married first and then establishing a career. Generally, people got married and had children at a relatively young age.
After all, Si Ning was a doctor and knew that getting married and having children too early would harm a woman's health, so she planned to keep Qiu Ju for a few years before negotiating a marriage for her.
As for Si Yihan, a man should start a career first, and there is no rush to start a family.
Si Ning had planned everything for the two of them, but he didn't tell them.
When Si Ning said this, both of them fell silent.
Qiu Ju was shy, while Si Yihan had a vague expression.
After giving out the red envelopes, Si Ning asked the maid and the boy to go play on their own.
She went back to the house, worried that they would be uncomfortable playing in her presence.
But the room was empty, and Si Ning missed Lu Hanxiao for some reason.
She has never had a real New Year and doesn't know how to spend it.
She felt a little bored and wanted to read a book to pass the time, but the medical books that were usually fascinating became boring now.
She picked up another military book. There were many books on the bookshelf in the room. She asked Lu Hanxiao to help her prepare some things, and some of them were Lu Hanxiao's books.
In the past, she could look at it for an hour without noticing anything, but today she couldn't concentrate at all.
She suddenly missed Lu Hanxiao and wondered how he lived in the army in the past years.
At this time, the atmosphere in the military was not much better. The originally lively military camp now had a depressed atmosphere.
Lu Hanxiao looked at the person standing in front of him with a cold expression.
"Miss Si, this is a military camp, not a beauty shop. No outsiders are allowed to come in and out at will, do you understand?"
After Si Wan left the Ning'an Marquis' Mansion, he did not return to the Zhenguogong Mansion. Instead, he went to a restaurant and ordered a lot of dishes to bring to the military camp.
She told the guard that her surname was Si and she wanted to see Lu Hanxiao.
The guards knew that their general's new wife was also named Si, and mistakenly thought she was Si Ning and let her in.
When Si Wan entered the military camp, the first thing he did was not to meet Lu Hanxiao, but to distribute the meals he brought from the restaurant to the soldiers.
She wanted to use this to win the hearts of the soldiers, so she started with the people around Lu Hanxiao.
Si Ning had never been to the military camp and had never seen these soldiers, and she could buy a wave of support in the military camp as a hostess.
If she actually competes with Si Ning in the future, she will also have support.
But he didn't know how strict the discipline in the army was. Lu Hanxiao was able to maintain his position in the court not only because he knew how to fight, but also because his army respected him and no one would disobey his orders. He doesn’t recognize other coaches either.
Although Si Wan sneaked through and joined the army, no one dared to touch the food she sent, and this matter also reached Lu Hanxiao's ears.
Lu Hanxiao took the people back to his camp and punished the guards.
"Keep your eyes open, does my wife look like this?"
The derogatory meaning in his words was undisguised. The guard did not dare to say anything and went to receive the punishment obediently.
Lu Hanxiao lost his temper and didn't look at all well when he saw Si Wan.
"Miss Si, you should learn to respect yourself. The Duke of Zhen Guo should have taught you these principles, right?"
Si Wan's face turned red and white, and a feeling of powerlessness swept through his body.
She looked at Lu Hanxiao, her tone full of grievances.
"Brother-in-law, I just want to reward the soldiers on behalf of my sister. My sister is not sensible. As a sister, I have to teach her these principles."
Lu Hanxiao laughed out loud in anger, "Your teaching is to come to the army behind An Ning's back and make people misunderstand your identity?"
"If that's the case, I'm really glad that you didn't teach Aning in person, otherwise I wouldn't be such a good wife!"
He lost his patience, or Lu Hanxiao was not a very patient person to begin with, and waved his hand at Si Wan irritably.
"For her sake, I won't care about you this time, but Miss Si, I don't want there to be another time when Li Liang sees off guests."
A tall soldier walked in and made an inviting gesture towards Si Wan.
Si Wan didn't give up, and finally got to be alone with Lu Hanxiao. Such an opportunity didn't come around all the time. If he missed it this time, he didn't know when the next one would be.
She did not leave, but said to Lu Hanxiao, "Lu Hanxiao, I have something to tell you. It's about Si Ning. Are you sure you don't want to know?"
"go out!"
"She had an affair with other men before you, don't you care?"
Snapped!
A tea cup hit the ground. Si Wan's heart trembled and he looked at the person opposite in fear.
Lu Hanxiao narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes full of warning.
Si Wan had no intention of giving up and continued speaking calmly.
"She had an affair with the fifth prince before. This is something that the entire town government knows. The reason why she married you was because her father forced her to do so, and it was also the fifth prince's wish."
In order to win Lu Hanxiao's favor, Si Wan did everything he could to betray his father and the fifth prince.
Lu Hanxiao's eyes became colder and colder. Just when Si Wan was about to continue speaking, a soldier's report came from outside the curtain.
"Report, General, there is a girl who claims to be your wife asking to see you. I dare not let her in without authorization. General, look..."
Before he finished speaking, someone saw the curtain being opened and a figure flashed past him.
The soldier didn't understand what was happening, but Lu Hanxiao had already appeared at the gate of the camp in three steps.
What caught the eye was a light cyan figure, standing in the sky, making everything around it lose its color.
