Chapter 560: 560: New Year Gift

The new year is around the corner, and this is Mu Qiuniang’s first New Year at the Mu family since taking on a disciple.

This year, the Mu family is celebrating a big occasion (i.e., cultivation), so they are naturally preparing for a grand celebration. Silk banners are hung, big red lanterns are hung, big red couplets are hung, a big red carpet is laid out...

The entire old Mu family residence is covered in red.

As the eldest in the Mu family, Mu Qiuniang naturally needs Mu Mingyu to compile the Mu family’s list, then distribute a New Year red envelope to everyone. For clan leaders and elder-level members, what gifts should be prepared; for elderly family members who are not elders, what gifts are needed; for the relatively younger elders in the Mu family, what should they prepare; for young married couples in the Mu family, what to prepare; for the unmarried young members of the Mu family, what to prepare; and for the underage Mu family members, what gifts are needed...

With hundreds of names, Mu Qiuniang has quite a few red envelopes and gifts to prepare. Each person’s situation is different, and she has to prepare according to their individual circumstances.

Fortunately, she has Mu Mingyu, otherwise, she would have had quite a headache.

Even Jiang Nuo expressed surprise when he saw the long list in Mu Mingyu’s hand, saying, "Mingyu, does our Mu family really have so many people?"

"Uncle and aunt, the Mu family actually has very few people now. Long ago, there was a rule in the Mu family that a man could only take a concubine if he had no sons after the age of 40, so there are very few illegitimate sons in the Mu family. If it were any other large family, adding the offspring of concubines, they would probably have even more."

"It seems the ancestors of the Mu family indeed had foresight."

"Taking wives and concubines doesn’t necessarily lead to having more children and blessings. This is a lesson learned after several generations. Eventually, someone made such a rule. Initially, some people didn’t understand it, but after not taking concubines, it seemed like the number of illegitimate sons increased. Gradually, it became a habit, leading to today’s Mu family."

"Exactly. I used to read scripts about palace intrigue, and when there are too many women in the inner chambers, who wouldn’t want to gain more benefits for themselves? There is only one man—what methods could they use if not schemes? It’s a simple truth, but they indulge because of that small greed in their hearts. They always feel having more women, with each woman having a child, seems like it would be a lot. But how many can actually survive the schemes of the inner house?"

Mu Mingyu laughed, "It seems, uncle and aunt are deeply touched by this."

Jiang Nuo also laughed, "I used to have to understand a bit whenever I took on scripts. Although I never took on such scripts about women, I was curious enough to study them. Scheming is not exclusive to women or men; it’s only about whether it’s useful."

He would never admit that he originally watched them to better understand women. Mostly, it was to understand Mu Qiuniang more. And along the way, to learn a few tricks to make his wife happy.

Later, he realized that those things were completely useless.

Because his wife was not one of those vulgar women!

Besides preparing gifts for the Mu family, preparations were needed for the Zhan Family too, as Zhan Zhengtong is Jiang Nuo’s biological mother. Whether as Jiang Nuo’s mother’s family or as the family of his first disciple Zhan Jingshu, gifts must not be missed.

Since the first disciple’s family was prepared, the second disciple’s family was prepared, and the third disciple Li Qiqi’s family also needed to be prepared, especially since her brother Li Wei Qiao also cultivates under her. They couldn’t be left out.

Even with preparations starting more than half a month ago, Mu Qiuniang was kept really busy. Fortunately, there was Jiang Nuo’s "world" to cheat, or else she would really have had a hard time.

Mu Qiuniang was this busy, and Jiang Nuo had to be busy too. His previous directors, fellow company artists, and other entertainment industry contacts all needed socializing at the end of the year.

Especially the wide fanbase, how can they miss out on gifts during the big New Year?

Jiang Nuo discussed with Mu Qiuniang and made a "New Year greeting video," planning to post it on Weibo. In addition, they prepared 888 gifts to randomly select 888 fans with comments ending in "8" as lucky fans to receive gifts.

At the same time, a fan meeting would be held before the year ends for the fanbase to meet everyone.

As for who can participate, 40% is decided by the official fanbase, while the remaining 60% is 20% for the charity organization "A Leaf of Autumn," 20% for the company, and 20% reserved for himself. In any event, fans who follow him and his wife’s Weibo deserve some perks, right?

Close to the New Year, fans received a sudden message that Jiang Nuo would not only distribute gifts on Weibo but also hold a fan meeting for tens of thousands of fans?!

[My goodness! @Jiang Nuo, what a huge gesture, I love it!]

[Ahhh, I want to go, I want to meet my beloved @Jiang Nuo, @Qiuniang.]

[Don’t hold me back, I need to meet @Jiang Nuo, @Qiuniang. I don’t care, no one can stop me.]

[Hahaha... our official fanbase has 40% of the spots, wow, I calculated my points level, although the flight ticket can’t be reimbursed, I’m definitely on the list.]

[Hey you, share that list, or I’ll kill you.]

[Hand over the list, and I won’t kill.]

[Ahhh... I’m not afraid, I’m a senior member of the "A Leaf of Autumn" charity, my points this year are enough for me to attend the fan meeting la~ la~ la~... Doing charity has its perks. Especially since most "A Leaf of Autumn" members’ points aren’t very high yet, just a little effort, and there’s a chance.]

[I’m also a "A Leaf of Autumn" member, I checked, I still have a chance. Hmm, there’s still some time before New Year, I’ll work harder and earn more points.]

[Hahaha... Do you think it’s a game? Earn more points?]

[I only want to know, what gifts did @Jiang Nuo prepare for everyone this time? Needless to say, @Qiuniang’s handcrafted pieces must be included. I love @Qiuniang’s handcrafted works the most, no matter what she makes, it’s always so exquisite and beautiful, I love it~]

[My New Year’s wish is to receive a handcrafted gift from @Qiuniang.]

[My New Year’s wish is to receive a handcrafted gift from @Qiuniang and be able to attend @Jiang Nuo and @Qiuniang’s fan meeting. Hehehe... I want to go and be vexed with "dog food," as long as I can meet my idol and goddess, I’m not afraid of the "dog food"!]

[Nonsense! If I can attend the meeting, I don’t mind the "dog food" either. So, @Jiang Nuo, @Qiuniang, hurry and draw my name, I’m ready for the "dog food."]

[@Jiang Nuo, @Qiuniang, I’m asking for "dog food," so please pick lucky me and let me attend the fan meeting.]

[@Jiang Nuo, @Qiuniang, I’m asking for "dog food," so please pick lucky me and let me attend the fan meeting.]
