Chapter 138: Leaving Home After Fifteen (Seventh Shift)
Chapter 138: Leaving the House After Fifteen
The joyous Chinese New Year's Eve passed, and when the sky lit up again, the people who had not slept all night also saved the matter of going to each house to pay New Year's greetings, and gathered together last night and had already paid homage to each other.
There are also a lot of candy and other things from Zhangjiafa, all of which were given to the children in the Zhuangzi, which saved the children money to buy candy, and each little baby also gave five hundred firecrackers, still a small bundle of incense, left for them to open and put away.
Everyone went back to their homes, the house was temporarily placed here, and it was used again on the fifteenth day of the first month, that is, when the first day of the new year, Li Xun also left with people, went back to Zhuangzi, and made an appointment when he left, and came back in two days.
The old man who is still a scholar doesn't feel tired all night, maybe it's caused by the constant shows, especially the cross talk and sketches interspersed in the singing and dancing shows, when people laugh, the sleepiness on his body is gone.
Since Li Xun told her not to say the wrong thing, she really didn't say a word, sitting there, except for eating and thinking about things, maybe the things she encountered today had too much impact on her.
She also saw the energy of the people in the inner courtyard of Zhang Wang's two families to do their work, they didn't need to be taken care of by others at all, they rushed to do the work, and their faces were always beaming.
Looking at the clothes they are wearing, the hairpins on their heads, their white skin, and their mannerisms, it is impossible to imagine that this is the subordinate of the Zhuangzi.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan returned home, fell asleep, the two of them were also tired, Steward Zhang came over to ask if something happened, they also had to take care of every family member, sandwich vegetables, say words to make the family happy, and then perform two small shows or something, a toss, the child's body finally couldn't hold on.
Da Zao and Xiao Zao didn't feel sleepy at all, the two of them have been in excitement, not only took revenge on the king today, but also followed Qiao Niangzi to do things here, slapped him, and said a few words of relief, in the eyes of the two of them, it was the best revenge.
Qiu Ju yawned and led the two of them to the courtyard, arranged a room in a courtyard where their maids lived, and took the two of them to the warehouse to carry things, three clothes and shoes from the inside out, two bedding and pillows, and two sets of tools for grooming.
They don't have any money themselves, so the main family will give them a silver hairpin, and they will exchange it when they have the money and want to use it well, but this is already very good for the two of them.
Hand oil and some knick-knacks for daily maintenance, as well as some handicrafts for decorating the room.
When Qiu Ju brought out some of the four treasures of the study to the two of them, the two of them blinked their eyes and asked, "Is it a mistake, this thing should be used by the head of the family and the little boy, right?" ”
"That's right, the old man and the little boy use better than us, we use the medium, they are all collected from other places, cheap, or left from the last time I advertised in the water and clouds, it has been useless, it seems that you are illiterate, you have to learn in the future, do things in the yard, at least you have to know how to read, can write, and can keep accounts.
The inner courtyard of Zhangjia Zhuangzi may be sent out to do things in the future, if you don't know anything, how can you be let out? In addition to learning these, you must learn other things, rest assured, you have time to learn, especially during the vigil.
There is not much work in the yard, and if you have time, you have to hurry up and learn, and the yard specially invited a master to teach us, and if you don't understand, ask the master, if the master can't answer, go to ask the housekeeper, the lord and the lady.
If the housekeeper, the lord and the lady can't answer the same way, it means that the question you are asking is something else, you can ask the little boy and the little lady, and basically the problem is not a problem. ”
Qiu Juju told the jujube and the little jujube, the more the two of them listened, the more surprised they became, the more they listened, the more they listened, the more they dreamed, they dreamed many times that they could learn to read, and when they woke up, they were still living, and now the two of them felt that they were dreaming, and they were afraid of dreaming too much.
"Let's go, don't stand here in a daze, you guys rest first, I'll go back to sleep for a while, I have to do things when I get up at noon, I take turns to rest during the New Year, and those who went to bed early last night have to get up and do things now."
Qiu Ju can understand the performance of the two of them when they are there, not many people can let the maid learn this, and they don't need it, unless it is some little lady's personal maid, Zhang Wang's family is all people who have to learn, and they can't learn it if they want to.
Da Zao and Xiao Zao returned to their house in a daze, and after Qiu Ju told them that they must not go out to do things now, the two of them sat on the warm kang, looking at each other, not knowing how to talk.
But I know in my heart that it is a blessing to be able to find such a master family in my previous life, and I must do a good job in the future.
After the Chinese New Year's Eve, it is fifteen, these days, the sound of firecrackers has not stopped, two Zhuangzi's little babies, every three days can go to the grocery store to get five hundred firecrackers to play, who let Zhuangzi do this, there is no shortage of this thing, so that children have a happy New Year is the wish of all adults.
On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, it was still the three Zhuangzi who discussed it together, but on the thirteenth day, Ge Yingxi of the Ge family Zhuangzi came over and wanted to join, and now it became four Zhuangzi people together.
Ge Yingxi can't help it, the pressure is too great, the party on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve of Zhang Wang Li San's Zhuangzi made the Zhuang family of Ge Zhuangzi envious, and those who have nothing to do talk about this matter together.
After Ge Yingxi found out, he sighed that when the three families were wealthy, he had to find a way to get it once, there was exactly a fifteen, and now he had to spend a lot of money, and when he saw that the three Zhuangzi were going to be together again, he came over to discuss, so that he could save some.
After getting the consent of the three families, Ge Yingxi trotted back to his Zhuangzi, and immediately asked the people in the inner courtyard to go outside to advertise, and now he will also use this word, telling the villagers that the lanterns on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month are from the master's house, one for each family, and as for the new clothes, they are not needed, and they are given during the New Year, and they can't be worn for fifteen days and become old.
There are also firecrackers, the same as lanterns, Ge Yingxi of the Zhang family at the cost price, Ge Yingxi did not forget the effect of lighting up the starry sky at this time last year, and he also let people tie torches, and there was a moon in the sky on August 15 last year.
According to the situation of clouds covering the moon on the 15th day of August and the snow lights on the 15th day of the first month, today's 15th day is a sunny day, and you can see the stars, which should be a good weather.
After all this, Ge Yingxi breathed a sigh of relief, sat at the door, looked at the side of the small bridge, and muttered, "I was hurt by you." ”
looked at the joyful smiles on his Zhuangzi, and muttered, "But if you take it out, you look more, but you actually earn more." ”
This fifteenth, the old man who doesn't know what Shangshu naturally brought his family to participate in, he is now most satisfied with Zhangjia Zhuangzi's side, except when he walked around, the people he saw were all the kind of people with joy on their faces, everyone was happy, and he was happy to look at it.
"Kang'er, do you see it? This is the people's heart, what Zhang and Wang's family do is to collect the people's hearts, other people don't dare to do it like them, but they can make the people eat and clothe, you think about the people in your heart, and the people think of you in your heart. ”
When the old man saw such a dealer, he said to his son beside him.
Kang'er nodded, "Dad, the child knows, the child will be a good official in the future, not greedy for a penny, thinking about the people all day long." ”
"Wrong, I won't let you be such an official, did you see Cheng County's order? Just be an official like him, you won't be short of money, you can get a good reputation, and the people under your rule will live well. ”
The old man has been an official for so many years, how can he not know which kind of official is the most popular, Jia County Order just didn't figure it out, it is far worse than Cheng County Order, as long as he does things steadily, let Sanshui County go further, there will be no shortage of money, and there are political achievements, so why bother.
"Dad, Cheng County's order is just a political achievement, they are greedy." Kang'er asked puzzled.
The old man smiled and said: "He is not greedy for the people's money, he is greedy for the money of Zhangjia Zhuangzi, do you know what he is doing in Kyoto?" visited Shangguan one by one, organized poetry meetings, preached Zhang Zhong's poems every time, and went to various restaurants to entertain others, do you think he has so much money? ”
"Huh? So much money? The child understood, it was the money given to him by the Zhang family. "Kang'er is now clear, as long as he has a relationship with some local rich and noble families, helps them do some small things, and then improves the lives of the local people, then this official is a good official.
The old man used the people's heart of Zhangjia Zhuangzi to teach his son, and the night slowly came, when it was dark, the torches on the four Zhuangzi were lit, and countless lanterns were carried by people, and they converged to the place of the small bridge, and looked from the upper floor between the water and clouds, which was very spectacular.
"Let's go, grandpa, let's go down too." The old man's granddaughter saw so many lanterns and torches, and pulled her grandfather out, followed by the rest of the family.
Zhang Xiaobao also has activities this time, not the kind of people who stay up all night, make lantern riddles for everyone to guess, guess the prize is rewarded, in this way, the people of Zhang Wang's two Zhuangzi take advantage, after all, they have more people studying, and the time is longer, unless there is a miracle, otherwise they take the lion's head.
The old man also guessed a few, won a lantern and a small toy for his granddaughter, and then stopped guessing, let others play, and guessed this lantern riddle that is not difficult with his ability, that is bullying, this lantern riddle is prepared for the dealers.
After some excitement, the crowd dispersed again, and hung the lantern under the eaves of their house with joy and anticipation for tomorrow.
Zhang's father was also ready to leave at this time, and he was going to take the state middle school exam, and after the exam, he directly participated in the spring festival.
