Tyrannical Wang’s Beloved Wife
-
chapter-471-1
Amidst Jing Wan’s slight excitement and Li Hong Yuan calm composure, the morning exercises and morning meal quietly went by.
Seeing Li Hong Yuan like this, Jing Wan was a bit displeased. She kept wanting to reach out and pinch his face. Him being like this made her feel very silly. It was ‘their wedding anniversary’, was this just one person’s business?
However, a certain someone still had a look of indulgence and pampering. Speaking of which, it was still somewhat different. At least, the affection he was expressing now was more obvious. Jing Wan ultimately could only begrudgingly retract her hand. ‘Freely letting her bully’ and what not, she hated the most, although if he were to resist, she will certainly suffer, so no matter what, it was all wrong. Jing Wan felt even more gloomy inside.
Li Hong Yuan was amused, having Jing Wan pulled before him, brushing her hair, “Let’s go.”
Jing Wan’s gloominess was cleanly swept away, beaming with happiness again.That’s why, Jing Wan was actually the same as many girls, actually very easy to coax, not caring about what they will do, instead caring about who they are with. As long as it’s the person in their heart, then no matter what, they will always be happy.
Knowing that today was the two masters’ ‘special day’, regardless whether it was the servants or the guards, it can be said that everyone was all very perceptive. At the same time while properly handling their own duties, it was trying not to disturb the two of them as much as possible. Having this kind of master, although they were quite idle, at the same time, it wasn’t too easy either.
Because when they came last year, she’d already had the entire estate more or less explored, Jing Wan figured that this year, there shouldn’t be any changes. The past few days have also been carefree, thus didn’t think of wanting to stroll through again. In any case, they have plenty of time. However, getting brought out by Li Hong Yuan today, she learned that this place similarly changed quite a bit. Overall, it perhaps didn’t change that much, but the details nevertheless showed off its unique and limitless beauty.
The third lunar month was already entering the season of spring to begin with, all life returning to the earth, hundreds of flowers blooming.
Because Jing Wan liked, this estate, from the start, was just built in this direction, and certain things, the living Enma can quietly and secretly do, but some things, he naturally still want to take credit for. Blindly doing, and not expressing anything at all, was the living Enma this kind of person? Obviously no. The praises and rewards he wants absolutely can’t be missing, especially the ones coming from his own wife, further asking for more and more.
The entire estate, aside from the villa they resided in, as far as the eyes can see, for the most part, were filled with all kinds of trees and flowers, either forming into a forest, or ‘the lone flower admiring itself’. After going through meticulous care and reasonable arrangement, mixing together with the mountains and waters, it won’t because of having too many instead appearing ordinary, and it won’t make people feel that it lost its natural charm, becoming artificial.
Getting pulled along by Li Hong Yuan and slowly strolling, her mood really was good to the point of soaring.“Ah Yuan, did you let someone arrange all this during the time we were in Jiangnan last year?”
“Isn’t the timing perfect.”
Wasn’t it precisely perfect. When seeing again, it completely became another scenery, and another kind of delight.
“Could it be that Ah Yuan is preparing to use the things prepared last year to brush me off?” Jing Wan pretended up be upset, but the smiles in the bottom of her eyes couldn’t be concealed no matter what.
“If it really was like so, then previously, wouldn’t have needed to be that busy, no?”
Jing Wan eyes and brows curved from smiling, and also thoroughly let go of herself, completely disregarding the etiquettes and whatnot. To put it elegantly, it was just like a willfully fluttering butterfly among the flowers, hundreds of flowers all blossoming for her, as if awaiting her ‘affection’.
Li Hong Yuan followed behind her, the hundred of flowers were the most beautiful scenery in her eyes, and she was the only beautiful scenery in his eyes.
Afterwards, Jing Wan finally discovered something different. On top a cluster of flowers, there was a palm-sized case. Jing Wan’s eyes slightly glistened, picking up the case, and turning back to glance at Li Hong Yuan. Seeing Li Hong Yuan’s smile, certain that this was a part of today, Jing Wan carried a bit of anticipation as she opened it. The thing inside was somewhat beyond Jing Wan’s expectation. Although she was certain that it won’t be some ‘ordinary’ gold or silver accessories and such, she was still surprised.
That was two little figures holding hands, carved using the highest quality white jade, but the details instead used other materials to decorate, for example, the eyes, the mouth, and also the little dudou. That’s right, the two little dolls were probably about a year old or so.
(T/N: It’s very common for infants and small children to wear dudous, since it’s a simple undergarment. So surprised I was able to find something similar to what’s being described.)
Jing Wan lightly covered her mouth, because she made out from the dolls’ features, it was clearly her and her husband——–Although because it was small dolls, it certainly won’t be completely the same, but the details were still very obvious.
The craftsmanship was quite exquisite, vivid and lifelike. Jing Wan loved it too much to part, the more she looked the more she liked. However, “Ah Yuan, your face really is quite thick. You’re several years older than me, yet still shamelessly let someone carve this kind of doll.”
Li Hong Yuan went forward, the back of his hand brushing over Jing Wan’s cheek, “Because knowing that I can’t, thus used this kind of method to grow up together with Wan Wan, accompanying hand in hand until old age.”
Jing Wan’s heart was like as if getting firmly clutched, her eye sockets somewhat reddening, yet her heart was like as if poured with honey, “Together? This kind of doll, how many did Ah Yuan prepare?”
Li Hong Yuan’s thumb wiped the corner of Jing Wan’s eyes, wiping away that faint drop of tear, “This requires Wan Wan to go find on your own, see whether or not you can find them all. If you find them, there’s a reward, and if unable to, you’ll have to face the punishment.”
This kind of present, even if it’s digging three feet under, one still must have them all found, but how could they be buried underground. Judging from the first case’s position, one was just able to tell that the place where they were placed actually wasn’t hidden. One was just afraid that the amount would be a bit much, unable to find them all. After all, the place was this big, no matter how obvious of a place, all able to be overlooked.
Jing Wan was full of fighting spirit, vowing to have all the dolls found.
Afterwards, it was no longer just purely admiring the scenery. Jing Wan began her treasure hunt.
Because she wasn’t in a hurry to find, so although the time spent will be long, it won’t be tiring either. Moreover, in between, there were even some desserts and fruits prepared, either placed on the special table that blended into the surrounding, or placed on a fake mountain somewhere, or placed by a certain flower pot. Occasionally, there would even be some wine. All in all, the preparations were quite ample and considerate.
Jing Wan had cases found one by one. The size of the cases were actually all the same. And the places these cases were placed were either between the flowers, on the grass, or hanging on a flower branch, some even placed by the prepared food. Indeed, not a single one was in a hidden place.
And the dolls’ appearance also began to change, having all kinds of postures, but without an exception, it was all the two of them, incomparably close, from infants, to toddlers, to youth, and afterwards, it was them in bright red wedding clothes bowing to each other, then holding one another until middle age, sitting and watching the clouds to old age…………
