Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 471.2: Wedding Anniversary Present

Jing Wan began sorting from the very beginning. The first ten or so, each one was all a bit bigger than the previous one, as if growing up a year. The sizes of later ones no longer changed, but from certain details, one was still able to make out the flow of time. The main color of the clothes were also changing. Jing Wan touched them one by one, truly loving too much. Seeing these jade-carved dolls, the years that originally didn’t have him seemingly really all had his participation, from the oblivious sentiments, to the inexperienced first awakening of love, to the ‘one gaze a thousand years’.

Jing Wan’s eyes faintly flashed with glistening teardrops, especially after seeing the last one. The background became a coffin, the two of them holding hands laying side by side inside. Their appearance had already faded, yet still dressed in fancy clothes. To sleep together in life and rest together in death was also nothing more than this.

There was a total of ninety-nine, “Ah Yuan, did I find them all?”

In Jing Wan’s eyes, this should be all of them. Life can’t be a hundred percent satisfactory. Even she herself further wish to pursue longevity. Placing the final resting place at ninety-nine didn’t mean dying at ninety-nine years old, but rather holding hands from birth to everlasting rest.

Li Hong Yuan lightly nodded, “Not only are they complete, the order in which Wan Wan arranged them in is also completely correct.”

Jing Wan uncontrollably went forward to hug him. Standing on the tip of her toes, she kissed his lips, just lightly once, “Ah Yuan, I like very much, really, very very much.”

Li Hong Yuan held her, “En, as long as you like.” There was nothing better than being able to make his wife happy. “Let’s go, later, there will be someone that will take these things back.”

“No, these were from you, so how can I let it go through someone else’s hand. I’ll take care of myself.”

“Then what to do, these weren’t personally carved by me.”

“But I know that the design must certainly have been drawn by you, and the idea must certainly be yours. This is more than enough.”

Li Hong Yuan lightly stroked Jing Wan’s nape, deciding to go learn carving, and afterwards, personally carve a set for her. “Then I’ll let someone send a chest over to pack away first and send back. Afterwards, how to take care of, we can decide later, alright?”

“Ah Yuan, this is having prepared another present?” Jing Wan’s eyes glistened.

“No, but, for the wedding anniversary, there’s still an entire day left. Or could it be that without presents, Wan Wan just doesn’t want to stay together with me anymore?” Jin Qinwang expressed that he was a bit ‘hurt’.

“How can that be? Liking presents, that’s because it’s from you, and compared to these, even if there isn’t anything, I will still like you, liking the most in the entire world. In passionate love, the only one I like.” Jing Wan smilingly kissed him again.

Li Hong Yuan also couldn’t help but kiss her a few times on her lips, “This little mouth is becoming more and more sweet.”

“That’s all because of Ah Yuan’s influence.” It couldn’t be helped, who let her man’s skill in sweet talk be maxed out.

Li Hong Yuan smiled, declining to comment. Turning his head, “Someone come, bring a chest over.”

Although there wasn’t a reply, but they completely didn’t need to worry.

Jing Wan moved away from Li Hong Yuan’s side, carefully having the jade dolls put back in their own case one by one. When the chest was brought over, she’d just finished putting away half of them, but she completely didn’t want to borrow other people’s hands. Even Li Hong Yuan also wasn’t allowed to help.

Finally, she had the cases all packed into the chest, which actually wasn’t too big or too small, but just right. Jing Wan immediately understood inside. This chest most likely was just used to store these previously.

When all packed away, the weight wasn’t considered light either, but it completely wasn’t a problem for Hei Mei.

Just, because knowing that this was something her master cared very much about, when carrying back, Hei Mei was also very careful.

Once it was just the two of them left again, “Ah Yuan, you previously said that if able to find them all, there would be a reward. What is it?”

“Let’s go.” Li Hong Yuan didn’t say more, pulling along Jing Wan’s hand, neither slowly nor quickly walking along the curved path.

Along the two sides were blooming peach blossoms. When the wind blew, the falling petals greatly scattering, sprinkling on the head and shoulders, the beauty contrasting against the colors, the feelings dyed red.

At the end of the path was a relatively wide area, the ground filled with luxuriant grass.

On the other side, on a relatively flat slope, there was even some uniquely shaped trees. However, Jing Wan’s attention only got drawn in by one of the haitang tree among them. This haitang tree practically was a bit beyond Jing Wan’s imagination. That shape was just like the fan-shaped banyan tree, having many branches and lush flowers. And the clusters and clumps of flower petals was just bright like fire. Jing Wan couldn’t help but pick up her pace.

(T/N: Just imagine the tree on the right but pink like the left one.)

Standing under the haitang tree, she felt as if the temperature all dropped a little, really having the feeling of being under a banyan tree.

Jing Wan lifted her head, unable to control her smile, her feet pacing back and forth nonstop.

Li Hong Yuan stood outside, watching Jing Wan’s whole body get dyed by the red shade, the bright and rosy face, the most beautiful in the world was also nothing more than this.

“Ah Yuan, this tree wasn’t even here last year, was it also transplanted afterwards?”

Li Hong Yuan went forward, “En, it was actually long picked out, but because the tree was too big, it wasn’t easy to handle.”

A large-sized tree, even in her past life, wasn’t that easy to transplant, let alone now. Moreover, this haitang tree right now was even this pretty. From the branches, Jing Wan for the most part didn’t notice any damage, which goes to show just how much manpower and resources were spent. Thinking to here, Jing Wan’s joy diluted a little, “Ah Yuan, the delight of those in power, the sorrow of the common people.”

Li Hong Yuan helplessly smiled, “Wan Wan really does harbor the world in one’s heart. Don’t worry, I have propriety. The things you’re worried about, I won’t let it happen. It’s merely a haitang tree, that’s all. And right now, I’m also just a qinwang, having no power and influence, so there won’t be anyone deliberately trying curry favor. When there’s the need, it’s always sending one’s own people, and the places that need money, I’ve never been stingy. Today is our wedding anniversary, so don’t think too much.” He lightly scraped the tip of her nose.

“Then that’s good.”

Because of those in power liking something, the people below will just do whatever it takes to find, using any means necessary, to the extent that the people have no way of living. This kind of thing, regardless whether it was in the history prior to Qi Yuan, or in the history of Jing Wan’s past life, it all didn’t happen any less.

Walking to the other side, Jing Wan saw a swing hanging from a horizontal branch of the tree, decorated with all kinds of flower blossoms. Once Jing Wan got closer, she saw that it was actually all silk flowers. To be able to make it this realistic, it was probably the handiwork of those servant girls by her side.

Jing Wan directly sat down, and without needing Jing Wan to say anything, Li Hong Yuan just went forward. Slightly exerting his strength, the swing just began swinging, going higher and higher, to the extent where Jing Wan was able to reach out and touch the haitang flowers.

Jing Wan’s laughter sounded, occasionally calling out ‘Ah Yuan’, letting him push a little higher.

Li Hong Yuan had one hand behind his back, pushing the swing again and again, not the least bit annoyed, even guarding very well, “Wan Wan, be careful, hold on tightly and don’t fall.”

Jing Wan turned her head to look at him, “Don’t I have you here, I believe that you won’t let me fall.”

“A few days ago, who told me that ‘people can trip and horses can fall’?”

“Alright, I know, I’ll be careful.”

Jing Wan played very happily, the swing swaying back and forth, the wind whistling by the ear. And she just had her head turned, loudly speaking with Li Hong Yuan. That was truly being willful and brash.
