Gu Yun first sent his parents and younger brother back to Jicheng Hall and congratulated them on a happy New Year, and then went back to Zhongming Courtyard to go to bed quickly, and he could sleep for more than an hour before getting up at Yin Shi.

These old girls come in handy at this time, they are experienced, since the young master was ten years old and became the grandson, every New Year's is like this, ten-year-old children have to get up at the end of the year to follow the elders into the palace to pay New Year's greetings, it is because of their presence that Bai Ko can also go to sleep with peace of mind.

At the same time, Gu Yun was woken up by the girls, and after grooming and dressing, he went to meet his parents, ate a bowl of dumplings for breakfast, and then two carriages came from the direction of Rong'en Hall to pick up people outside the gate of Jicheng Hall.

After sending the masters out, the girls who had been on duty in the middle of the night in Zhongming Courtyard could finally wash and sleep, and the masters entered the palace to pay New Year's greetings, and the custom was to give a luncheon, so they would go home in the afternoon.

Bai Ko slept until dawn and woke up, feeling cold inside, he got out of bed and went out to make a fire to warm up, but saw that it was snowing heavily, and the whole courtyard was full of white, and there were ice crystals hanging on the branches.

After taking a few deep breaths of cold air, Bai Ko shivered and put charcoal in the flue of the earth dragon to make a fire, and went back to bed again.

It was almost noon, and her stomach was so hungry that she couldn't stand it, so she finally left the warm room, washed and changed, and stepped on the creaking snow to get herself something delicious in the kitchen.

When I came out of the corner gate and stood under the porch of the main house, I saw a straight walkway swept out of the snow in the large courtyard, connecting the steps of the hall and the platform of the main house, and the rest of the snow was untouched, which was also very beautiful.

The girls were also making lunch for themselves in the kitchenette at this time, and when they saw Bai Ko coming, they gathered around to greet each other and say good to each other, and told her that many people had given her New Year's gifts, because she was sleeping before, so they were all temporarily put in the retreat.

As the second steward of the inner house, it is normal for someone to give gifts during the New Year's holidays, and Bai Ko herself has also prepared gifts for people of the same level such as Pang's mother, the housekeeper, she smiled and said that she knew, and then rolled up her sleeves to wash her hands and get food.

The girls were busy with each other, and Gu Chen, the sixth young master who stayed at home, walked over leisurely, smiled sweetly and greeted the maids and sisters with a happy New Year, and went into the cafeteria to stand in front of the spicy pot to see what was delicious inside.

Seeing that the sixth young master had an expression that he had eaten too greasy last night and now had a bad appetite, Bai Ko asked him to bring a pair of dishes and chopsticks to his own toilet, while she was making new snacks while waiting for the girls to make lunch.

After more than half an hour, the snacks were ready, Bai Ko packed two snack boxes, and then brought the New Year's red envelopes prepared in advance, and went to the ice cellar to celebrate the New Year for her subordinates.

People who have errands are often all year round, so on the first day of the first month, the ice cellar courtyard also has to be staffed together, and the three women and daughters-in-law of Shui said all kinds of auspicious words, while happily taking snacks and red envelopes from Bai Ko's hands, and hugged her to the hut to drink some hot water to rest and talk.

Bai Ko sat in the hut for a long time before saying goodbye, and then went to the second and third rooms to pay New Year's greetings, the old men and ladies sat in the main room all day today, in addition to the outside visitors handed in the New Year's post, the people in the house are also going around in circles to pay New Year's greetings, and can receive a lot of extra rewards.

According to the principle of the way, Bai Ko went to the third room first, the third master and the third lady saw that she came to pay New Year's greetings quite enthusiastically, and the reward was also very generous, compared to her husband's official luck, the third lady's financial luck was better, she never was soft on the money that should be spent, and the next person was much more generous than the second lady during the New Year's holiday.

After gossiping with the third master and the third lady, Bai Ko resigned when he saw the endless stream of people who came to pay New Year's greetings and continued to go to the second room to pay New Year's greetings.

The atmosphere in the main room of the second room is not as good as the third room, it seems to be more deserted, the second lady herself is not a person with a warm personality, Bai Ko saw her cold smile only when she was tired, the attitude of the second master was quite kind, praised yesterday's Chinese New Year's Eve banquet several times, and the reward given was quite passable.

For the sake of this reward, Bai Ko naturally didn't care about the second lady's expression as if she was attending a funeral, and immediately resigned after thanking her, and went back to Zhongming Courtyard to rest, and the prince should almost come back from the palace.

After moving all the New Year's gifts piled up in the retreat back to his house, news finally came from the front yard that the four masters who had entered the palace to pay New Year's greetings had entered the door.

The girls hurriedly went to the pantry to make a fire to boil their faces and boiling water, added charcoal to the dragon in the main house, and dressed Bai Ko and walked quickly to the gate of the courtyard to greet them.

At the time of half a burnt incense, the carriage went around the Babu Alley from the east side gate, and stopped outside the Zhongming Courtyard first, Gu Yun got off the car with a smile, and the little guys who followed the carriage moved a large box from the luggage behind the carriage and put it in the courtyard gate, and then the carriage continued to Jicheng Hall and Rong'en Hall.

Entering the palace to pay New Year's greetings is naturally rewarded, Bai Ko calmly called the two third-class girls to carry the box to the bedroom, she and Shizi took the first step and advanced to the bedroom, when the inner room was waiting for the young master to wash his hands and clean his face and change clothes, several girls took turns to change hands, and finally moved the box to the outer room.

I don't know what to put in the big box, dead and heavy, the girls are out of breath, Bai Ko opened the box to see, it turned out that there were several boxes of various sizes inside, one of the largest boxes contained a pair of treasure bottles, and the other boxes were also full of colorful and various palace made things, all of which were traditional items that the palace rewarded the courtiers every year.

This is the first time Bai Ko has seen a cash cow, and he is interested in holding it and playing non-stop, feeling that he can really shake money a few more times.

Gu Yun finished changing clothes and came out to drink tea and rest, and at first glance, he saw Bai Ko holding a cash cow with a money-obsessed expression, shaking his head and smiling, and walked over and sat down on the Luohan couch.

"Cash cows are fun, aren't they?"

"It's fun." Bai Ko has always been honest and open.

"I'll reward you for the fun."

"Thank you, Shiko!" With a smile on her face, Bai Ko handed the cash cow to the little girl on the side, and told her to take it and put it on the windowsill of her study, and she had to do things against this cash cow every day.

The little girl couldn't help laughing, took the cash cow and walked away quickly.
