Many sons, many blessings?

Jiang Wan's expression was a little dazed.

If she had any regrets in her previous life, it was that she never had a child of her own. That's why she had such a good relationship with Jiang Rong in her previous life.

In this life, this wish should be possible, right?

When Jiang Wan thought of the recent interactions she had with Xiao Rui, she couldn't help blushing.

She walked up to the bed and placed her hand on it. There were five exquisite bats carved into the rosewood bed partition, and between the bats, there were different kinds of giant pomegranates. From the half-opened gap of the pomegranates, one could see round and juicy pieces of pomegranates.

Jiang Wan smiled. Bat Tong Fu. A pomegranate symbolizes a son. The blessings of the ancients were expressed in such a straightforward manner.

”Madam, do you have any other places to add or subtract from?” Xia Yi followed along, asking for Jiang Wan's opinion.

”You've done very well.” Jiang Wan smiled as she looked at her. As a bedroom that would only stay for one night, she really didn't have many requests.

Not long after, Jasmine came over and asked if they could set up a meal.

Jiang Wan originally wanted to follow her habit of staying in the bamboo garden to place the table in the inner room, but to her surprise, Clove suddenly said, ”Madam, I just saw a bamboo pavilion over there, and it just so happens to be set up in the middle of a small bridge. Why don't we put our dinner there? Not only is the scenery good, it's also cooler and more breathable than here.”

There was a bamboo pavilion in this courtyard?

Jiang Wan also looked through the window, and indeed, she saw the bamboo pavilion's yellow eaves among the lush green leaves.

When she thought of the fact that they still needed to clear out the boxes and cages, as well as the fact that it wasn't very convenient for her to stay in the inner room, Jiang Wan happily agreed to place the dining table in the pavilion.

She called Clove to go to the side of the room. After a simple wash, she changed into a fresh and dry Yulan colored satin palace dress and held a palace fan in her hand …

Jiang Wan walked out gracefully, and immediately saw Xiao Rui, who was sitting in the outer room, greeting her.

At this moment, Xiao Rui had changed into a moon-white mask and was extremely excited. He had taken off his mask and was brimming with energy, his eyes were like stars, and from the light lift of his eyebrows, it was clear that he was in a good mood.

”He's coming.” Xiao Rui stretched out her hand, and looked at Jiang Wan with curved eyebrows, her expression was like the spring breeze.

Xiao Rui's fingers were white and slender, and even his nails were neatly trimmed.

Jiang Wan looked at the servants in the courtyard and hesitated for a moment, but she still placed her hand on Xiao Rui's palm with a blush.

Xiao Rui smiled as she wrapped Jiang Wan's hand in her own, gently stroking the back of her hand with her thumb. As she led her along, she introduced the scenery of Spring Flower Garden as if it was her own.

When the two of them walked to the bamboo pavilion, only then did Jiang Wan discover that it was built on a strange protruding stone.

Beneath the odd stone was a lotus pond, where the lotus leaves had formed into a green field, and the pink and white lotus flowers were either blooming or sprouting from it.

A gust of wind blew past, and a delicate fragrance assaulted his nostrils.

”This is a really good place.” Within the pavilion, there were already servants spread out clean straw mats. Jiang Wan smiled as she sat down on the ground, while Jasmine led the wives in the kitchen to set up the tablecloths and vegetables.

Chinese osmanthus fish sticks, chicken wire, stir-fried artemisia selengensis, crystal shrimp, ham and bamboo shoot soup, auspicious rolled rice porridge with medlar...

In just a short while, a table full of delicious delicacies with bright colors that would make anyone hungry was placed in front of them.

How could the two of them eat so much?

Jiang Wan looked at the dishes on the table and wondered if she should find an opportunity to exchange pleasantries with Xiao Rui and stress what it meant to be a ”thrifty family”.
