Chapter 247: The Happy Year of the Tang Dynasty 2
Year, the Tang Dynasty called it the Yuan Day, but Xiao Han felt that the New Year was not called the New Year, it was always weird, so let's call it the New Year!
Chinese New Year is an extremely special festival! No matter what era the Chinese, there are always various inexplicable feelings integrated into the period.
When I was a teenager, I was looking forward to the New Year, maybe to be able to wear a new dress, or for a good meal that I could only eat during the New Year.
In middle age, most people don't look forward to the Chinese New Year, because it means another year longer! Little by little, the burdens of life weigh the young heart into the depths. At this time, the New Year is just to show filial piety to parents, buy some gifts for children, and fill the scene in front of relatives and friends.
When I was old, I was afraid of the New Year, and I longed for it. A year has passed, and I am one step closer to death, but at the time of the Chinese New Year, it is really gratifying to reunite as a family.
But no matter whether you look forward to it or resist it, the year, it will always come, I haven't heard of anyone who can resist it, don't even the immortals say how many years of cultivation? It can be seen that the gods have no way to control the time above everything.
The Xiao family Zhuangzi is cleaning today, the pavilions, columns, stone steps, floors, all of them are cleaned spotlessly, if it weren't for Steward Lu's stopping, there would be two hundred and five people who would have climbed to the roof to wipe the tiles!
In fact, the houses of the Xiao family Zhuangzi are all new, and there is no need to clean them at all, but the cleaning of the New Year is not only to make the home clean, but also to look forward to the new year.
The people in the house were busy, Ziyi and Xiao Xin were not idle, the two of them were on the left and the right at this time, each stepping on a small stool to clean the windows of Xiao Han's study.
Both of them are rare beauties, with beautiful wrists and faces, just to stop here, it adds a lot of color to this place, and the young man who comes over next to him has to take a sneak peek, if he is accidentally found by them in purple, the young man's face will immediately be as red as the lantern that has just been hung!
From this point of view, Xiao Han knew that the decision to leave the two beauties at home was the right one! If nothing else, let's just say that since the two of them came to the Hou Mansion, other people in this mansion can work out of thin air!
While wiping the window, I watched that stupid boy fall down the steps because he was so engrossed in peeking at himself! The basin of muddy water in his hand splashed the man on the ground from head to toe, and the man who wiped the floor ran all over the yard! At this time, Ziyi and Xiao Xin couldn't straighten their waists when they laughed!
The two of them love it here, they really like it! The boy didn't lie to them at the beginning, it was really like a paradise.
Here, everyone is so kind, there will be no intrigue here, let alone right and wrong!
In this big family, everyone is so real and vibrant! The subordinates here don't look like subordinates, but like good families, trying to maintain this as their own home.
And in the same way, this big family also treats everyone as a part of themselves, to love and tolerate them! Here, if you do something wrong, you will be kicked by the butler at best, and I have never heard of anyone being convicted for a trivial matter.
When Ziyi first came, she saw with her own eyes that when a fool was cleaning the Hou Ye's study, he touched the good West Lake inkstone on the ground and smashed it several times, and she was scared to death at that time! I thought that this stupid guy was going to be finished, but I didn't expect that the Hou Ye, who was reading, just raised his eyelids and said: "Stupid, you don't have long eyes when you do some work, and you are not allowed to eat at night!" ”
The servant was not scared to death as he imagined, and after apologizing seriously, he cleaned up the pieces on the ground, and there was a look of frustration on his face, but if he listened carefully, it seemed that his mouth was saying: improve the food today, and the chicken legs at night will not be eaten......
Is this the end of the matter?!
Ziyi can't believe it!
Shouldn't someone who has caused such a catastrophe be beaten half to death? Don't you know the value of the inkstone?
My mind was blank, and I didn't even remember when the stupid subordinate left, I only remembered that Hou Ye saw him and muttered: "This kind of work can't be done by those clumsy people, you two will clean up here in the future, girls, you will always be more careful than those bastards!" ”
Hou Ye ordered, Ziyi subconsciously nodded and agreed, until she returned to her residence after her stupid work, and then she suddenly woke up!
Isn't the head of the house's study accessible only to those closest to him? Does he want to ......
Thinking about it, he blushed, grabbed Xiao Xin, who had just come back, and told her about this new arrangement, but poor Xiao Xin was ignorant, and he didn't understand the meaning of the study in a wealthy family, and he even cheered, and finally didn't have to go to the backyard to pass the food! It's so painful to look at and not be able to eat!
Early the next morning, the newly appointed Xiao Xin dragged the purple clothes to the study, Xiao Han hadn't gotten up yet, the study was deserted, and he had to keep the stove on.
Poor Ziyi was thinking about it, I didn't know what I was thinking, when Xiao Xin went out to get coal, she set it on fire as if it was a fire, making the whole room full of smoke!
The people working outside accidentally saw smoke coming out of the cracks in the windows in the study, and they were shocked, and there was a burst of "The water is gone, put out the fire!" "Something like that!
Then he hurriedly rushed in with a bucket and sandbags, but fortunately, at the critical moment, he was desperately stopped by the purple clothes who ran out of choking, otherwise, this New Year's Day, Xiao Han's newly renovated study would be completely ruined!
If there is anyone in this family who sees the big and small things the most thoroughly, it is Steward Lu! There was an old Cao who could compare with it before, but since Lao Cao went to be in charge of the industrial zone, the big and small things in the family have fallen on Steward Lu alone, but although things are cumbersome, Steward Lu is always happy to deal with the big things and small things!
After eating in the morning, I just chatted with the fat cook leisurely, and I heard a commotion in the front yard! Approaching the Chinese New Year, such a thing happened, Steward Lu was naturally in a hurry, where could he take care of the fat cook, picked up the front swing and rushed to the study!
"What are you doing! What are you doing! Big New Year! What is this for! ”
"Steward Lu, I'm sorry, when I started the fire just now, the wood was a little wet......"
"The wood is a little wet, so it won't be dry! At this time, you won't use your brain......"
Steward Lu was about to scold, but suddenly saw that Ziyi was unusually dressed today, dressed in several layers, standing there timidly, and suddenly understood how this always cautious girl could make such a low-level mistake, and her anger immediately disappeared.
"Ahem...... Forget it, it's a big New Year! Pay attention, the weather is dry, the water and fire are ruthless, no one should give me carelessness! Okay, don't be stunned, what should you do, what's going on, it's all here, wait for the Hou Ye to come back and not kick you one by one! ”
instructed the surrounding subordinates to open the windows to ventilate, and then took away the buckets and other sundries scattered all over the place, Steward Lu shook his head and continued to busy his own business, leaving a purple cloth with a big flower face and Xiao Xin, who was still holding two pieces of coal in his hand, looked at each other.
Little girl, just thinking about it, who do you think of my lord?! Steward Lu wanted to come.
It's just that he seems to have forgotten that when the two beautiful women lived in the mansion, he was like a great enemy! I can't wait for Xiao Han to follow his ass as soon as he returns home, for fear that something ugly will happen!
It was also after that period of time that Steward Lu was surprised to find that Hou Ye didn't mean that to these two people at all, although he also had some appreciation when he saw them, but all of them were out of affection and courtesy!
He didn't understand that Xiao Han's influence on monogamy in later generations was extremely profound! The so-called red flags at home do not fall, the colorful flags flutter outside, and it is okay to have a good time, if you really have a chance, but it is another matter.
