The next day.
Tonight is New Year's Eve.
The imperial decree bestowing rewards was issued yesterday, and the original plan to decorate the mansion and hang red lanterns under the eaves has been postponed until today.
Fortunately, there are many people in the family, which makes things much easier and more efficient.

Instantly, Lu Qiqi gave her a thumbs up, "Great job! Our Ayao wrote so well!"
Receiving praise from Lu Qiqi, Lu Yao's smile grew even brighter.
