Chapter 7 New Year

"Yes, miss, I wish you safety and good health, and all your wishes will come true..." After the servants heard what Nan Yan said, they all talked to Nan Yan one after another.

Seeing everyone's beaming smiles, Nan Yan told them that they could rest in turns from the first to the sixth day of the lunar month. If they wanted to go shopping, they could register with the housekeeper, and then walk back to the main courtyard in a leisurely manner.

After Zhang Butler distributed the red envelopes that Nan Yan had prepared in advance to the servants one by one, he did not forget to hit them and said: "Miss, I usually treat you well and will not beat or scold you for no reason. You should do your job well when you are on duty."

, Don’t think about it, if you let me know that anyone has done anything sorry to Miss, I will definitely not be able to spare you."

He was also Butler Zhang. Before he was bought back by Nan Yan, he was a servant of a wealthy family. He saw too many dirty things in the wealthy family. In order to prevent others from making mistakes, he would beat the servants at this time.

"Butler, the lady is kind to us. We all know that the steward can rest assured that we will not do anything to harm the lady." A man said.

"Yes, don't worry, housekeeper..." Someone spoke first, and everyone behind them echoed.

They were all children from poor families. They were lucky that the master they met, Nan Yan, not only gave them food and clothing, but also did not beat or punish their servants like some wealthy families. They had no time to be grateful. How could this be possible?

Do things that harm Nan Yan.

Nan Yan is the only master of the family. She usually eats alone, so tonight she called Mei Lan over to eat with her.

Mei Lan didn't dare to sit at the same table with Nan Yan at first, but under Nan Yan's force, she sat down in front of Nan Yan.

Nan Yan was in a good mood tonight. She took out the red wine in the space, poured a glass for Mei Lan, picked up the goblet and swung the wine, and said: "Mei Lan, come here, one of our masters and servants will leave."

Mei Lan had never drank wine, but she drank when the lady asked her to.

So poor Mei Lan drank a glass of red wine, her face immediately turned red, and then she became more courageous than before and started chatting with Nan Yan.

Mei Lan shook her head and said, "Hey, why did I see two young ladies?" She extended her hand to gesture.

Nan Yan didn't expect that this girl had such a bad drink ability that she would get drunk after just one glass of red wine.

Mei Lan didn't know whether it was because of drinking or because she had been depressed for too long, so she started to cry under the influence of alcohol.

Nan Yan didn't expect that this girl would cry after drinking. She put down the wine glass in her hand and quickly comforted her, saying: "Meilan, why are you crying?"

"Miss, I miss my parents. Even though they sold me for food, I still miss them." Mei Lan raised her little face and said pitifully.

Nan Yan didn't understand Mei Lan's experience, so she could only say: "I miss them so much. You can take the time to go back and see them!"

Mei Lan shook her head: "Not going back, not going back?"

Then while shedding tears, she said to Nan Yan: "Miss, do you know that we have four daughters and three sons in our family. I am the third daughter in the family. A few years ago, the family was poor and could not uncover the truth, so my father sold me for one tael of silver.

Gave human teeth.”

"Oh, oh, one tael of silver. My father sold me for just one tael of silver."

Nan Yan didn't know how to comfort her little girl, so she could only sit quietly and listen to her words.

Perhaps because she was tired from crying, Mei Lan fell asleep on the table with tears in her face.

Tonight is New Year's Eve, and the rest of the family is having dinner in the second courtyard. At this time, she can't call people in to help Mei Lan wash up. She can only go to get a basin of water, wipe Mei Lan's face, and then hug her.

Go to the cubicle and let her have a good sleep here.

After Nan Yan put Mei Lan away, she went back to the table and continued drinking slowly, enjoying her first New Year in this world.

On the first day of the new year, Nan Yan thought that no children would come to her home to pay New Year greetings. After she got up and washed herself, the housekeeper said that there were children coming to pay New Year greetings.

She grew up in an orphanage in her previous life, and there were many homeless children in the orphanage. She was usually fine and would go back to help the mother, the dean, take care of the children.

Looking at the children's crystal clear eyes and the soft and cute children, even if she becomes a poor girl, she can't help but feel a little more fond of the children.

So when Nan Yan took Mei Lan, who was sober after drinking, to the front yard, the neighboring children, all dressed in jubilant red clothes, bent down to wish Nan Yan New Year greetings.

Nan Yan listened to the children's blessings, smiled, put the red envelopes she had just prepared into the children's hands, and said the same blessings.

When the children walked out of Nan Yan's house, there were many candies given by Nan Yan in their pockets.

When the parents saw the candies and the 100-cent red envelope brought back by their children, they learned that these were given by Nan Yan. They immediately felt that Nan Yan, although she was an orphan, was really worthless.

There are even matchmakers who like to be matchmakers. They are thinking about the young talents in the city and want to protect Nan Yan as a matchmaker.

Nan Yan didn't know what the matchmaker was thinking at this time, and even if she did, it didn't matter. Anyway, she hadn't thought about finding a man to spend her whole life.

Putting aside this matter for the moment, on the second day of the Lunar New Year, Nan Yan walked to the He family next door with the pastries she made at home and the Tieguanyin she took out from the space.

When Butler He saw Nan Yan coming, he smiled and said, "Miss Nan is here. Was she talking about you just now?"

Nan Yan took a donut wrapped in oil paper from Mei Lan, handed it to Butler He, and said: "Uncle He, Happy New Year!"

Nan Yan was always beautiful, but now she lost her repulsive attitude and became more dignified and gentle. When Butler He saw Nan Yan's sweet smile, he said, "Thank you, Miss Nan. I also wish Miss Nan all the best.

May all your wishes come true……"

Nan Yan said goodbye to the housekeeper and walked to He Sanniang's yard under the leadership of the girl.

When she got here, He Sanniang's mother Wang was also there, so she smiled sweetly again and said, "Yan'er has met Aunt Wang."

Wang had previously greeted Nan Yan when she first arrived in Linzhou. Later, because her daughter and Nan Yan had a good relationship, the two sisters got close, and she liked Nan Yan's sensible and unpretentious character, so she treated Nan Yan

She is almost the same as my own daughter.

So Wang walked forward, took Nan Yan's hand and said kindly: "You kid, I asked you to come and have New Year's Eve dinner with us on New Year's Eve, but you were stubborn and refused to come."

Nan Yan saw the genuine concern in Wang's eyes and said, "Aunt Wang, although I didn't come here on New Year's Eve, I haven't seen you for two days. I miss you so much that I'm here to see you now!"

Mrs. Wang took the handkerchief and pursed her lips and said with a smile: "You kid?"

He Sanniang was dissatisfied that Nan Yan didn't talk to her, so she jumped in front of Nan Yan and her mother, took Nan Yan's hand and whispered: "Sister Yan'er, my mother and I told you to go to Huiming Temple to burn incense on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year.

It would be great if Sister Yaner comes with us."

He Sanniang and Nan Yan are the same age, they are both sixteen years old this year. She is only two months younger than Nan Yan, so she calls Nan Yan her sister.

In fact, Nan Yan doesn't know how old she is this year. She can only determine her age and birth date based on her appearance and her birth date in her previous life.

Nan Yan followed He Sanniang, sat on the chair with her and said, "Okay, let's go together on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year."

Mei Lan, who was standing behind her, took out the donuts Nan Yan had made in the kitchen last night and put them on the table along with the nougat.
