When Su Xiaoxiao entered Wei Ting’s room with an angry expression, Xiaohu lowered his head to make sure he didn’t pee.

“Xiaofu (hu), no pee.”

He waved his pair of small hands and said to Su Xiaoxiao seriously.

“I know.” Su Xiaoxiao patted his little head and said to him and Dahu Erhu, “You guys go help Uncle Ergou put up the couplets.”

The three of them put down the paper and pen brushes that were all over the table, and sneakily walked away.

After Wei Ting finished writing the couplets, he was currently writing the character ‘Fortune’.

-Fortune character couplets

Su Xiaoxiao hit the table and said fiercely, “Wei Ting, what do you mean by that!”

Wei Ting continued to write leisurely, “Your little lover is gone?”

Su Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes slightly, “What? Are you jealous?”

Wei Ting sneered, “Heh, you are thinking too much. I just think that everything has to be fair. I’m not allowed to flirt with anyone in the village, this also applies to you.”

Su Xiaoxiao clenched her little chubby fists again.

From her rational analysis, although she had no ulterior motives towards Shen Chuan, and had no intention to engage in any romantic relationships, it was evident that Shen Chuan didn’t see her that way either.

But just in case, she meant just in case, there was really a development beyond business between her and Shen Chuan, actually Shen Chuan could still be considered as an excellent partner.

That would be great. Although she hasn’t noticed anything about it yet, Wei Ting had already notified her in advance!

Su Xiaoxiao’s true nature of a bully was fully revealed: “You should be careful if I can’t get married later, I will really rely on you!”

Wei Ting said calmly, “You can’t afford to rely on me.”

……

In the afternoon, they finished grounding all the peanuts and sesame seeds at home.

Su Ergou went to Old Li Tou’s house to return the millstone. Su Xiaoxiao asked him to bring along a set of couplets, four pieces of fortune character couplets, and a large sheet of red paper that could be used for window paper-cuts.

-Millstone

-Couplets

-Fortune character couplets

-Window paper-cuts / Chuang hua / 窗花, They are often glued to the exterior of windows. Normally they are used on festivals such as Chinese New Year, weddings and childbirth. As cut-paper artwork is considered to symbolize luck and happiness.

“Don’t forget about Lizheng’s* family and Aunt Liu’s family too.”

*Lizheng (里正) : An official position in ancient china, mainly in charge of household registrations and tax payment.

Lizheng was an official in their village, so they had to treat him well.

And Aunt Liu’s family’s land and the Li family’s were right next to each other. When Father Su followed Mrs. Qian learned how to farm, he accidentally caused trouble on their land.

When Chen Haoyuan was writing the couplets at the Old Su family’s house, Aunt Liu and Mrs. Qian didn’t go there to watch the excitement. They thought they could only be envious of other people’s couplets, but unexpectedly their families would also have it too!

And they had more fortune character couplets and red paper for window paper-cuts than the others!

In comparison ah, the Chen family’s calligraphy skill was completely lacking!

Mrs. Qian and Aunt Liu didn’t know how to make window paper-cuts. So they came to find Su Xiaoxiao, and Su Xiaoxiao helped them to cut the papers. They were exquisite and festive!

“I don’t know Pangya has this kind of ability!” Aunt Liu’s mother-in-law lamented from the bottom of her heart.

“She’s very capable!” The Sun family’s daughter-in-law who came over to visit said, “She went to the town to sell cakes, and earned a lot of money! I heard from Liu An’s wife that her family always eats meat all the time, this fact made them super envious!”

Who would have thought that the Su family, who used to rely on blackmail to make a living, could go to the town to do business?

This was either bewitched by an evil spirit, or just a stroke of luck.

Aunt Liu’s mother-in-law thought for a moment and said, “They got a good son-in-law ah.”

The daughter-in-law of the Sun family muttered, “Gentleman Wei was born handsome and literate, why did he marry into the Su family? Is there something wrong with him?”

Aunt Liu glared at her and said, “How can you have the same conduct with Mrs. Zhou! Can’t see other people living a good life?”

The daughter-in-law of the Sun family said, “I just made a casual remark, why do you have to be so angry?”

“You can talk whatever you like, just don’t do it in my house!” Aunt Liu directly drove people away!
