Chapter 12 Calling the Shots

Zheng Xunrui's changes, Yuhuan and lotus leaves are the deepest feelings, they are personal maids, every day to take care of Zheng Xunrui, Zheng Xunrui's bedroom has a total of three rooms, one is Zheng Xunrui's sleeping place, one is Yuhuan lotus leaf sleeping place, and one is a reception room, which is also Zheng Xunrui's room on weekdays.

After returning from the Qinhuai River, Zheng Xunrui has undergone earth-shaking changes, these changes, the two girls are in their eyes, the lotus leaf is very happy, and even began to hum a small song every day, Yuhuan is different, most of the observations, not as optimistic as the lotus leaf.

The attitude of the two is different, this is also normal, between Lotus Leaf and Zheng Xunrui, there is already a skin kiss, all the thoughts of Lotus Leaf are placed on Zheng Xunrui's body, and he has already regarded himself as the young master's woman in his heart, any good change in the young master, Lotus Leaf is seen from the front, who doesn't want his man to be promising.

Yuhuan is different, looking at the changes in the young master with reason.

Half a month has passed, the young master did not have the slightest obscene expression, and he didn't even want the two girls to help wash his feet, almost everything was done by himself, which made the two maids not have much to do, and the two also found out that the young master began to pay attention to the big and small things in the family, such as daily expenses, etc., and often talked with his wife, and raised many things at home, but many things that the young master said were taken care of.

Zheng Kaihua moved to live in a house in the south, which is the biggest sensation in the family, and the subordinates in the family know that Zheng Kaihua has no status in the family, and even similar to the subordinates, the lord is not at home all the year round, and every qiē in the family is the wife and the young master, in this case, Sun and Zheng Kaihua cannot have much status.

The next thing that happened made everyone's opinion of the young master fundamentally change.

The housekeeper qualification is very old, the young master came when he was just born, the master and the lady value and respect the housekeeper very much, the housekeeper also knows the big and small things in the family, and knows what kind of attitude should be used to treat everyone in the family, so many years have been dedicated, but for the sake of Zheng Kaihua's affairs, the young master actually reprimanded the housekeeper unceremoniously.

Here's the thing, Zheng Kaihua moved to live in the south house, the housekeeper is still not very attentive to Zheng Kaihua, the attitude is the same as before, and even when he moved, he directly asked Zheng Kaihua to abide by many rules, and the tone and attitude were not very good, this scene happened to be seen by Zheng Xunrui, at that time, Zheng Xunrui sank his face and unceremoniously taught the housekeeper, saying that the housekeeper is putting the cart before the horse, Zheng Kaihua is the little master of the family, no matter what, it is the identity of the master, Where is there a subordinate who points fingers at the master?

The housekeeper was stunned at the time, after the lady knew, she immediately came over to play the round, the original intention was to help the housekeeper speak, who knew that the young master was unceremoniously, and actually asked the lady to have a clear attitude, and said that the country has national laws, and the family has family rules, the reason why the Xingyang Zheng family has become a famous family is to clarify many rules, and everyone abides by them, which can ensure the prosperity of the family, and the younger brother is the little master of the family, and this status is impossible to shake.

It is said that someone saw it, and Sun, who was watching this scene from afar, secretly wiped away tears.

Since then, Zheng Kaihua's status at home has changed significantly, everyone has changed their names to Zheng Kaihua Little Master, even the housekeeper, the young master's attitude towards the little master is needless to say, when eating, you must wait until the little master comes, before you can start eating, once the little master was probably reading a book in the house, forgot the time to eat, came a long time late, Mrs., the young master and the Sun family were waiting, when the little young master blushed and said sorry, the young master just said a few words lightly, Just ask the little master to pay attention in the future.

It's just that half a month has passed, and there have been changes in the house, when the lady does things, most of them have to consult the young master's opinion, and when the young master does things, he will definitely ask the young master's opinion, and the people up and down the house have begun to respect the young master who is less than fifteen years old, and the previous discussions about the young master have disappeared without a trace.

The most obvious change is the housekeeper, it is said that he has been unceremoniously reprimanded by the young master, and he should have some opinions, but the housekeeper not only has no opinions, but also respects the young master more.

These things were all seen by the two maids, Yuhuan and Lotus Ye.

The two little girls couldn't think for a while, and they didn't know why the young master had changed so drastically.

The county school is about to be on vacation, during this time, most of Zheng Xunrui's energy is focused on the few books at hand, which are the books that the county school must study, basically the four books and five classics, one thing is different, he took several books from Mr. Teaching, has been returned, Mr. Teaching began to feel strange, but also a little disappointed, you must know that after reading these books, it will take at least a few months, but when Mr. Teaching is looking at the books in Zheng Xunrui's hand, he was surprised, It turned out that Zheng Xunrui copied all the broken sentences and related annotations in the book, and there were some new annotations on them.

Mr. Teachings carefully read these annotations, very shocked, some of the annotations he even needs to think for a while, some of the annotations make him stunned, in this case, Mr. Teachings began to pay special attention to Zheng Xunrui, and talked with Zheng Xunrui several times in succession, knowing that Zheng Xunrui sometimes reads books and even sleeps all night, he is very relieved.

The spring break of the twentieth county school in Layue will not start until the twentieth day of the first month of the next year, that is, the day before the holiday, Mr. Yu took out more than a dozen books and asked Zheng Xunrui to take them back to read, saying that it is not to waste his studies during the holiday, after all, the time for the county examination is imminent.

After going home, Zheng Xunrui stayed at home, reading in the room every day, he also picked out some simple books, asked Zheng Kaihua to study, the two brothers were studying at home, seeing that the outside was gradually becoming lively, the atmosphere of the New Year was getting stronger and stronger, and the Zheng family was much quieter.

Twenty-fourth of the lunar month.

Early in the morning, Zheng Xunrui finally put down the book in his hand, today is the day when the gods return to heaven, and every household has to be dusted, that is, a big cleaning, Zheng Xunrui can't watch everyone busy, and he is idle.

The two maids, Lotus Leaf and Yuhuan, had already gotten up, one carrying a large basin of clean water, ready to start wiping the windows.

It is not easy to wipe the windows, not to mention that the windows are generally relatively high, that is, there are many wooden lattices in the middle of the windows, which need to be cleaned, there is no glass at this time, even in the palace, there is only a very small amount of dark green frosted glass, and the homes of the gentry and wealthy families have wooden windows, which are all pasted summer cloths, and the light is very bad.

To clean the windows, you need to tear off all the summer cloths and throw them away, there is a lot of dust adsorbed on them, and they can't be used at all.

The whole process is very tedious, and it takes nearly an hour to clean a window.

Zheng Xunrui walked to the side of the lotus leaf, put his hand into the wooden basin, and quickly rubbed the rag.

"Young Master, what are you going to do?"

"Lotus leaves, jade rings, I'll do the things of cleaning the windows, you clean the house."

"Young master, these things are what slaves and maids should do, don't do it."

"What are you talking about, I sleep in this house, of course I should clean it, you just do what I say, you tidy up the things in the house, remember, don't touch the books on the table."

After Zheng Xunrui finished speaking, he walked to a window, lifted the stool next to him, and pulled Xia Bu off with force.

"Hiss ......"

"Ahh......h

When Xia Bu was torn off, a large amount of dust appeared, Zheng Xunrui sneezed several times in succession, and was disgraced, and the lotus leaf and jade ring below couldn't help laughing.

"Young master, it's still a slave to do it, you won't do it."

"It's because I can't, so I have to study, you see, young master, I couldn't read before, and I can only read after listening to my husband's lectures, this window may not be more powerful than reading, you don't have to look at me, go busy with you."

Zheng Xunrui devoted all his energy to dealing with the windows, during which Ma's, Sun's and Zheng Kaihua all came, and saw Zheng Xunrui, who was covered in dust, was wiping the windows hard, they all left silently, after Zheng Kaihua returned to the room, he also began to clean up, learning to start cleaning the windows, Ma and Wang, also began to clean up some small things.

It took Zheng Xunrui a morning to wipe all the windows clean.

In fact, before the crossing, he often did housework, including cooking, washing vegetables, cleaning, etc., and the characteristic of his doing things was that he did not do it if he did it, and he did his best.

Looking at the few bright windows, Zheng Xunrui felt quite proud.

Lotus Ye and Yuhuan looked at the nearly spotless window, dumbfounded, they originally thought that the young master was a whim, and they might not be able to do it well, and they would come to do it again after the young master did it, but they didn't think that the young master did it better than them.

Lotus Ye walked to Zheng Xunrui's side.

"Young master, your body is dirty like this, the slave maid will wash you with water, hurry up and take off your clothes, and the slave and maid will wash you."

Yuhuan also hurriedly walked into the house to find clothes, in fact, cleaning, the most difficult thing is to wipe the windows, the rest of the cleaning is much easier, the young master has all the windows tidied up, saving them a lot of body.

Zheng Xunrui, whose head was covered with dust, felt that he was indeed going to take a bath, otherwise he would be embarrassed to go out.

When looking at Yuhuan's back, Zheng Xunrui's heart moved, he had already thought of one thing, it seems that he can talk to Yuhuan today, and see if Yuhuan is willing.
