With such a tough attitude from the emperor, not to mention the officials in the court and the relatives of the honored clan, they were afraid that one day they would wake up and it would be the last day at home.
Even ordinary people, when they go out, they are a lot more cautious in their words and deeds, and they dare not speak too much easily.
The entire capital city was shrouded in a thick layer of mist.
This kind of day lasted until mid-December. Following the emperor's decree to exempt the five provinces that suffered from drought and flood disasters for three years, he also decreed that Yingtianfu's Lantern Festival this year must be held lively!
At this point, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the previous violent storm had passed.
The tense atmosphere that was low on the heads of the people in the capital was quietly relaxed, and even God seemed to feel the same way. The day after the current decree was issued, it was a sunny day that cleared the dark clouds.
The bright sun shone on the body. Although there was no temperature, it still made everyone feel warm physically and mentally.
Almost overnight, the atmosphere of the New Year spread all over the streets and alleys in the capital. The shops and shops were newly decorated, with beautiful red lanterns hanging, or ribbons and colored silk wrapped around them. The best and most exquisite goods were generously presented The square ones are placed in the most conspicuous place in the shop.
People buying new year's goods also set out one after another, wearing new clothes, choosing in the street market, rubbing shoulders, noisy and lively, and finally returned with a full load.
Naturally, the merchants are also satisfied seeing the daily income, and the smiles on their faces are getting brighter day by day.
Of course, the dozens of dim sum shops opened by Lian Fangzhou are also booming in business, and their reputation has risen to a higher level.
The only thing that makes her regret is that firstly, she is pregnant and Li Fu is not allowed to worry about other things, and secondly, because of the incident with the prince, she has to keep a low profile, so the opening of the new shop has been delayed, and she has to wait until the next year Pick another good day.
But that's good too, it's better to be well prepared.
From the sixteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, Li Fu returned to his previous leisure, spending all day at home with his beloved wife and the son he believed must be in the belly of the same beloved lady. Seeing her belly getting bigger day by day, he My mood is also getting better every day.
This day, the two of them got tired of planning the purchases for the new year, and asked Steward Qian, Chun Xing, Hongyu, etc. to buy them. Seeing that the weather was fine, Li Fubian accompanied Lian Fangzhou to the garden for a walk.
Unexpectedly, the Zou family and the Qi family from the mansion over there came again, gave New Year gifts, and then very politely invited them to come over to celebrate the New Year together.
Before Lian Fangzhou could say anything, Li Fu politely and unquestionably declined.
Zou Shi and Qi Shi didn't expect him to be like this, their expressions changed slightly for a while, but they didn't dare to force them to be verbose, so they had to reluctantly leave with a smile.
Lian Fangzhou was naturally satisfied, so he smiled and said, "It's a good thing you didn't agree, I was worried that you would nod your head! I don't want to go to that mansion again!"
"How could that be?" Li Fu said quickly, "Now that you are pregnant, how dare I let you come to that mansion. If something really happens, I can still kill Li Wanrou!"
Hearing this, Lian Fangzhou laughed and sighed again: "It's a pity, this is the first time for me to celebrate the New Year in the capital! But I can't even go out, so I can only stay at home every day, and I don't see any excitement. !"
Li Fu hurriedly hugged her and coaxed her with a smile: "Good lady, there are still many opportunities in the future, let's not rush this moment! I will accompany you as long as you want to go shopping next year, okay?"
Lian Fangzhou is a pushover, especially in front of Li Fu. Hearing this, he pulled his sleeve and said in a pitiful and coquettish voice: "Why don't we go out for a stroll now? Let's go slowly in a carriage. , I won’t get out of the car!”
Seeing Li Fu's hesitation, she also acted like a baby and tortured him.
But after Li Fu took a look at her stomach, he still hesitated.
Pregnant women have a big temper, especially prone to whim, and especially easy to get angry.
Especially when the whim's requirements and needs are not met, it is easier to get angry!
Therefore, Lian Fangzhou got angry, twisted his face angrily and said, "You only care about your son, and you don't pay attention to me at all!"
"How could it be!" Li Fu hurriedly said with a cautious smile: "My good lady, stop making trouble. After you give birth to your son, I will do whatever you want, okay? There are so many people on the street, I am I'm afraid that your upset will affect your mood!"
"No! I just want to watch the fun!" Lian Fangzhou exclaimed angrily.
"Good lady!"
"It's not good at all!" Lian Fangzhou glared at him and complained, "I'm going to be suffocated to death every day at home, as if I'm isolated from the world! It's still six months away, how easy it is to get there? Really? I won't go out until after giving birth, I'm afraid I'll feel rare if I see more people!"
It made Li Fu laugh, and seeing her like that, I really couldn't bear to refuse, so he said, "But, your body—does it really matter? It's said that pregnant women should be the most careful. I'm worried about you!"
"I'm not a porcelain doll." Lian Fangzhou raised her eyebrows, and said, "Look, I'm fine!"
She rolled her eyeballs, her pupils shone slyly, and suddenly she approached Li Fu and said a few words in a low voice with her red lips lightly parted, biting her lips and smiling in a shameful manner.
Li Fu's eyes widened in vain, staring at Lian Fangzhou in disbelief.
Seeing his wife's face darken, he hurriedly held her hand and said, "Is what you said true?" Her voice trembled a little.
Lian Fangzhou gave a "puchi" smile, glanced at him angrily and said with a smile: "Fake! Don't you ask your doctor Xue? What does your doctor Xue not understand!"
Li Fu was tangled, and said again: "Do you really want to go out for a stroll?"
Lian Fangzhou nodded.
"Then go!" Li Fu said softly, "I'll be with you. If you get impatient, just say so, let's get back together."
"Yeah!" Lian Fangzhou deserved it, and then he took Li Fu's arm and smiled happily: "Let's go! I haven't gone out for a long time!"
Li Fu smiled helplessly, and said dotingly: "Be careful where you step, I promised you and I won't go back on my word, what are you busy with? Go back and add some clothes, bring a hand stove before leaving!"
The two walked away talking and laughing, and two plain figures slowly appeared behind the clump of holly that was as tall as a person.
The woman with a slender figure and an extremely beautiful appearance stared quietly at the place where the two of them disappeared, her eyes were deep and blurred, and she sighed softly: "Brother Fu, I never knew that he had such a side! Never Know!"
So what if it was his wife? Doesn't he understand that the husband is the guide for the wife, and when married, follow the husband? Why should you be so nice to her? Why do you have to talk to her in such an almost flattering manner? She... deserves it!
