Wang family, at the west end of the village, lost an unlucky little girl. Xu family, at the east end of the village, picked up a girl named Fuman'er.
Everyone in the village said, "Th...
Today can be said to be the day that Fu Man'er got up the earliest. Just as dawn was breaking, Liu Fang pulled her out of bed.
After washing her up, I changed her into a new dress, a peach-colored skirt, which made the little girl look as beautiful as a peach blossom.
Unfortunately, Fu Man'er was as excited as a chick pecking at rice the whole time. She was so excited about moving to the new house last night that she couldn't fall asleep. She had only been asleep for a short while when she was pulled up.
"Ah." This was probably the umpteenth yawn she had ever let out.

"Mother, is my sister ready? We should get going." Xu Yi said as he walked in.
Liu Fang had just finished securing Fu Man'er's hair accessory when she said, "Alright, let's go."
Old Man Xu had someone calculate the auspicious time for moving into the new house, which is why he got up so early today. Just as Liu Fang was about to reach out and carry Fu Man'er, Xu Yi took the first step.
"Mother, let me hold Man'er." As soon as he walked over, Fu Man'er seemed to have caught his scent and leaned against him.
The family, dressed neatly, headed towards their new house, and the people they had hired to help arrived one after another, just in time.
After Xu Genzhu set off a string of firecrackers at the door, the old man Xu opened the gate of the new house and led everyone inside. A feng shui master who had been invited was saying auspicious words, wishing that everything would go smoothly after moving into the new house.
Fu Man'er was awakened by the sound of firecrackers. She slept in Xu Yi's arms the whole way and when she woke up, they were already in the new house.
When I opened my eyes, there were people everywhere—people who came to help and people who came to congratulate me. Luckily, the Xu family's front yard was big, otherwise it really wouldn't have been able to fit everyone.
"Why don't you go inside and take a nap?" Xu Yi suggested, seeing her teary-eyed look. After all, it was mostly adults coming over; the children were still at home.
Fu Man'er yawned again, tears welling in her eyes. "Okay, time to sleep." She had already checked and Erni and the others hadn't arrived yet, so she decided to sleep first, get some rest, and play together when Erni and the others came.

Xu Yi greeted Liu Fang and then led his people to the backyard. The advantage of this two-courtyard layout was that it separated the front and back yards. Even though the front yard was bustling with noise, once they passed through a corridor to the backyard, there was no one there.
After entering his own courtyard, Xu Yi pushed open the door to one of the rooms, which was Fu Man'er's room. Now that the family had many rooms and Fu Man'er was not young anymore, it was time for her to have her own room.
The mattress and blankets on the bed were brand new, and they felt soft and cozy as soon as Xu Yi put her down. As soon as he put her down, Fu Man'er rolled over and found a comfortable position to fall into a deep sleep.
Seeing how soundly she was sleeping, Xu Yi couldn't resist pinching her nose. The little girl had no choice but to open her mouth, but even then, she still didn't open her eyes.
"Just like a little piglet." Although he said that, Xu Yi's eyes were full of doting. He helped Fu Man'er cover herself with the blanket before leaving.
The adults outside have already started getting busy. Although people have been assigned to help with the chores at home, if others can't find something or are unsure of what to do, they still have to go to the homeowner.
There had to be someone at the door to greet the relatives and friends who came to offer their congratulations. As the eldest son, Xu Genshan stood at the door with Liu Fang. Today, the couple were dressed in clothes of the same color.
Xu Genshan changed into a long robe and black boots. Liu Fang also tidied herself up. She was naturally beautiful, but she just didn't usually dress up.
Today she wore powder, drew her eyebrows, applied lip rouge, and wore a pearl hairpin slanted into her hair, with two tassels hanging down from the end, just above her ears.
She also wore earrings on her earlobes, a pair of small and delicate pearl earrings, which matched her hairpin.

Today, the sleeves of her clothes are wider, and you can see the white jade bracelet on her wrist. She had always worn a silver bracelet before, but Xu Genshan bought her a jade bracelet later.
While cooking at the restaurant, Liu Fang was reluctant to wear her jade bracelet, fearing she might accidentally bump or scratch it. But today, since she didn't have to do anything, Xu Genshan took it upon himself to replace the silver bracelet.
"Oh my, look at these two, they're as young as a newlywed couple."
The saying "clothes make the man" is not without reason. After dressing up, the couple did look much younger, and those who came to congratulate them couldn't help but tease them a bit.
Despite being married for so many years, Liu Fang was still shy and blushed as she invited the person inside.
"My wife, you are so beautiful." Xu Genshan whispered in Liu Fang's ear as the person went inside.
Liu Fang blushed, her ears turning red as well. She lightly patted Xu Genshan and said shyly, "You're such a chatterbox."
"Sister, brother-in-law." Looking up, I saw Liu Daneng and Wu Xiaohua walking over.
Liu Fang stepped forward and said, "You've come." As she spoke, she glanced back and, not seeing Old Lady Liu, secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If she had come, who knows what trouble she might have caused.
"Sister, your house is really impressive." Wu Xiaohua looked at the grand gate with envy. The blue bricks and black tiles looked amazing just from the outside. She wondered what it was like inside.

"Don't stand outside, come in quickly." Liu Fang saw that she was craning her neck to look inside, so she stepped aside to let them in.
"Hey, come on, Fu'er, let's take a look around our aunt's new house." Wu Xiaohua couldn't wait any longer, so she pulled her son over and walked inside.
With Xu Genzhu and his wife taking care of things inside, Liu Fang wasn't worried.
"What's the rush? We haven't given the gift yet." Just as Wu Xiaohua was about to walk inside, Liu Daneng grabbed her arm.
Wu Xiaohua impatiently shook off his hand, "You can take him yourself, I'll take my son to see him first."
She had heard from others that the Xu family's house was beautifully built, and now that she had finally come, she had to take a good look at it.
As for why they heard it from others, it's because Old Lady Liu wouldn't let them come. It's all because when it came to making braised food, Liu Fang refused very decisively, not wanting the Liu family to gain any advantage.
And here comes old lady Liu again, making threats that the Liu family doesn't acknowledge Liu Fang as their daughter, which is why Wu Xiaohua and her family haven't visited the Xu family for so long.
Even today, when the Xu family moved, Old Mrs. Liu didn't want them to come, but Wu Xiaohua had already heard that the Xu family's banquet was very successful, so of course she had to come.
After finding a reason to persuade Old Lady Liu, he brought a basket of eggs to the Xu family to offer his congratulations.
Original text from > TaDu Novels~
Grandma Liu felt she had taken too much of this basket of eggs, but Liu Daneng felt incredibly embarrassed when he gave it as a gift. It was the first time he had ever realized how wealthy the villagers were.
Several people brought money, and even those who brought eggs had baskets much bigger than his. When the red cloth was lifted, the eggs were as big as a baby's fist.
On the contrary, his own egg was small and not arranged properly, looking rather shabby.
And then someone greeted him, "Hey, this is Genshan's brother-in-law, right? It's been a while since we've seen you. You've come all this way."
"I've been busy lately, I've been busy lately," Liu Daneng said with an awkward smile. He wasn't familiar with these people, so he put down the eggs, looked at the gift list, and quickly walked away.
But I still heard the sneers from behind, "This is Old Xu's in-law, how stingy! Look at the eggs they gave him, they're so generous."
"That's true. I think the other in-laws of the Xu family sent something much better. Several large pieces of pork, and they even gave money, right?"
"It's incomparable; you'll see the difference once you compare them."
Liu Daneng didn't listen to anything else they said after that. He felt it was too embarrassing. His mother was really something, unwilling to give anything else, even eggs.
Choose one with bigger eggs; his little basket of eggs is really embarrassing compared to the others who are also delivering eggs.

Once inside the house, Liu Daneng had no time to think about these troubling matters anymore. He stared intently at the furnishings of the Xu family's house, not even blinking.
Without needing anyone to lead them, they simply followed the villagers around and saw the entire front yard of the Xu family, from the main room to the kitchen, leaving no place unexplored.
