The legitimate daughter becomes cannon fodder? Rebirth to overthrow the system's fatality
Chapter 37 When she is fully grown, she will return to Beijing to kill her enemies!
The calendar adds new years, and spring fills the old mountains and rivers.
In Shouchun Hall, Old Madam Pei sat at the head of the table, watching Sheng teach her granddaughter how to cut paper-cuts.
"Yuan'er, look, don't hesitate when cutting, this way the cut will be smooth."
Cheng Jiuyuan followed her aunt to cut several haircuts and gradually mastered the essentials.
Several older maids in Shouchun Hall and the Mujin sisters took the cut paper-cuts and pasted them on the doors and windows, and the festive atmosphere was instantly strong.
When Cheng Jiuyuan brought the maid back to her own courtyard, she saw the housekeeper directing the servants to decorate every corner of the mansion.
The colorful ribbons on the trees and the red lanterns under the eaves made the Pei Mansion look particularly festive.
It wasn't even dark yet, and the sound of firecrackers outside the house was continuous.
The new year begins, fireworks light up the night.
The whole family sat around the table. There was a roaring charcoal fire in the house, and even though the windows were wide open, it didn't feel cold.
There are sounds of firecrackers outside the window and the sky is full of fireworks.
There was laughter and joy in the house, and people were toasting each other.
"Come, let the fireworks light up the world, and raise our glasses to celebrate the new year!" Pei Xiu held up the wine glass, his voice full of smiles.
Everyone raised their glasses and drank it all in one gulp.
Of course, all the kids had was peach soup.
This peach soup is the juice boiled from peach wood. People drink peach soup during the New Year to ward off evil spirits.
After the reunion dinner, Mr. Pei took out the chessboard and insisted on playing a game of chess with someone. After losing to his son, he asked his eldest grandson to avenge him.
Pei Yan pulled Pei Jin and Cheng Jiuyuan out of the room.
The snow had stopped by then, leaving only snow on the ground.
The fireworks in the sky lit up the night as if it were day, reflecting the snow on the ground and the lights in the courtyard, and Cheng Jiuyuan was in a playful mood.
She threw the hand warmer to Mu Jin, squatted down and started making snowballs.
"Girl, be careful of the cold."
"It's okay, just for a moment."
"Cousin, are you going to make a snowman?" Pei Jin asked when she saw Cheng Jiuyuan rolling two snowballs, one large and one small.
"Yes, third cousin, go find some branches."
After Cheng Jiuyuan arrived at Pei Mansion, he rarely acted like a child. Most of the time, he was more stable than his cousins.
The little girl was breathing white air from her mouth, her face and hands were red from the cold, but her eyes were exceptionally bright.
Pei Jin was not a playful person, but she did not spoil the fun at this time. She went to find what her cousin wanted and squatted down to pile it with her.
Soon, a cute snowman stood in the yard.
Before I could even feel happy, a flying firecracker blew up and snowflakes flew everywhere.
Pei Jin and Cheng Jiuyuan quickly dodged.
Looking back again, the snowman's round head had been completely changed.
"Second cousin!" Cheng Jiuyuan roared.
Pei Yan apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I really didn't mean it...ah!"
Before Pei Yan could finish his words, a snowball from Pei Jin landed on his face.
The snowball scattered and the snow foam fell into his collar, making Pei Yan scream with cold.
The three of them were playing snowball fight in the snow.
Mrs. Pei and Mrs. Sheng were sitting in the house. They heard the noise of fighting coming from the yard and saw several children playing wildly through the window.
"Why did Yuan'er take off her cloak and play in the snow? What if she catches a cold?" Old Mrs. Pei frowned.
As he said this, he was about to ask Hongye to go out and stop it.
Sheng said, "Mother, let them play. Yuan'er has been in Gusu for so long, and this is the first time I see her so happy."
After saying this, he told the maid to prepare ginger soup.
Madam Pei said no more and looked at the little girl in the snow with gentle eyes.
"Hahaha, my eldest grandson is still the awesome one!" Old Master Pei burst into hearty laughter.
Pei Xiu looked at the chessboard and realized that he had lost everything. He cursed Pei Xuan for being a cruel wolf cub, but there was a hint of pride in his eyes.
"Grandfather, Dad, come out and set off the firecrackers." Pei Yan shouted in the yard.
The family stood under the eaves, and the housekeeper had someone light the fireworks.
Fireworks rose from the ground and soared into the sky. After loud noises were heard in the air, the sky above Pei's mansion suddenly became dazzlingly bright.
After watching for an incense stick of time, Old Madam Pei urged everyone to go into the house.
The maid brought ginger soup and the children drank a small bowl of it.
The next step is to ask for the red envelope.
The two elders of the Pei family sat at the top. Pei Xuan stepped forward and lifted his clothes.
"I wish that my grandparents will be as constant as the moon, as rising as the sun, as long-lived as the southern mountains, never blocked or collapsed, and as luxuriant as the pines and cypresses, with all your inheritance."
After speaking, he kowtowed three times.
The two elders at the top looked at their eldest grandson and nodded with satisfaction.
The two handed over the red envelope and said, "Good boy, one day you will rise with the wind and soar to the sky."
Pei Xuan took the red envelope and said, "Thank you, Grandfather and Grandma."
When it was Pei Yan's turn, he stepped forward and knelt respectfully.
"I don't have my elder brother who is full of poetry and literature. I just hope that grandpa and grandma will be healthy, worry-free, and stay by my side forever."
The two elders took out the red envelope again and said with a smile: "Grandfather knows that you don't want to study, but want to do business. Our Pei family has such a family business, and we need someone to guard it. You and your eldest brother, one guarding and one protecting, is good."
Pei Yan's eyes lit up. Just don't force him to study.
"The grandson will never let down grandfather!"
Pei Jin knelt down and said loudly: "Grandson, I wish grandpa and grandma to be healthy every year, and spring grass grows every year."
"Although you are the youngest, you are the most stable. I know you have great ambitions, and I hope you can achieve great things one day."
Pei Jin took the red envelope and kowtowed respectfully: "Thank you, Grandfather and Grandmother."
After saying this, he stood up and retreated to Pei Yan's side.
Looking at her three sons, each with his own strengths, Sheng's eyes were filled with smiles.
She looked at Cheng Jiuyuan and reminded him quietly, "Yuan'er, go ask your grandparents for the red seal."
Cheng Jiuyuan slowly walked forward and knelt on the mat.
At this moment, Cheng Jiuyuan's heart was filled with gratitude.
In the past, in the Cheng family, her father, as the prime minister, was busy with official duties, and even when he had the New Year's Eve dinner with her and her mother, he was in a hurry.
Ever since she could remember, what she saw most often was her father's back, and what she heard most was her mother's sighs.
At tonight's New Year's Eve dinner, she finally understood what family happiness was.
Every festive season brings people's longing for their loved ones. The old lady felt sad when she saw her face resembled her deceased youngest daughter.
"It would be great if Yun Qing could see this scene at this moment..."
Pei Xuan comforted her softly, "Don't talk about the past again, and start the new year with joy. Grandma, let the past be the past, and the future will be good."
Seeing that the good New Year's Day reminded people of sad things, Cheng Jiuyuan smiled and said, "Today is the New Year's Day, grandma should be happy. Big cousin is right, the future will be good."
"Yuan'er wishes that grandpa and grandma will be blessed as boundless as the vast ocean, and live as long as a tree that is over eight thousand years old."
"May all my uncle's wishes be as good as before. May my aunt remain as youthful as ever, year after year."
"May the three cousins start from now on and see each other in the blue sky!"
Seeing that she was neither humble nor arrogant, and spoke wittily, Old Madam Pei said that Yun Qing was a good teacher.
Cheng Jiuyuan also harvested a lot of red envelopes.
There is a custom of staying up all night on New Year’s Eve. The night is so long, you can’t just sit there and do nothing.
Pei Xiu was playing chess with Old Master Pei in front of the window, while the others were playing mahjong around a square table. The loser had a note stuck on his face.
Even Old Mrs. Pei had it all over her face.
In the second half of the night, everyone couldn't hold on any longer and went back to their rooms.
Cheng Jiuyuan took out the red envelope that she had prepared earlier and asked Mu Jin to distribute it to the servants in Cuizhu Garden.
The servants said auspicious words, took the red envelope, and dispersed.
After Cheng Jiuyuan finished washing up, she asked Mu Jin and the others to go downstairs and rest.
It was almost three o'clock in the morning and the sound of firecrackers could still be heard outside the mansion.
Cheng Jiuyuan stood quietly in front of the window, thinking about the three months after her rebirth.
A lot happened in just three months.
In order to get rid of Zhou Jingxian and wipe out the Weng family, she also worshipped two great masters.
She put her hands together in front of her chest and whispered, "May the new year be better than the old one!"
When she is fully grown, she can return to Beijing and kill her enemies!
