Chapter 68: Chinese New Year's Eve 1
Approaching the end of the year, everyone had a good rest for a few days because of an order given by the fourth master.
On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, the Ulanala clan ordered the chief governor of the Baylor Mansion to open the gate, the small door, the hall, the warm pavilion, the inner hall, the inner door, the inner small door, the inner door, and the main hall door in front of each door, and arranged a small maid in front of each door to guard, and she took the female dependents of the mansion to wait at the gate of the main hall early.
When they finally heard the report that someone from the palace had arrived at the gate, the Wulanala clan hurriedly got up and took the Xin Yao Li clan and them to kneel and wait for the "blessing" of Lord Kangxi...... When the eunuch had finished reciting the "blessings" he had given, he left a bunch of shortbread with the words "Wan, Fu, Lu, Shou, Ji, Xiang, Ru, Yi", as well as silver, silk, and fruits.
After sending away the eunuch: "Let's all disperse first", she is also tired these days, as for these things, let's put them first, and then send them to Mama after they are divided.
"Yes, the concubine is retiring"
"Yes, the minions are retired"
Xin Yao and Li were the first to leave, and they were also tired at this time, so they didn't say anything and went back to the courtyard directly.
"I'll sleep first", she was too tired to do it.
"Yes", Mama covered Xin Yao with the quilt and went out, she also had to rest for a while, so she went to the main courtyard early in the morning to wait.
By the time Fujin divided the things, it was almost dark, and everyone didn't feel any dissatisfaction, after all, everyone was tired, right?
The next day is the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, sticking the Spring League, sticking the door god, these miscellaneous things don't need to be bothered by Xin Yao, these things are in charge of Fujin, she just needs to take care of her own yard, so that she breathed a sigh of relief.
The fourth master is also busy at the end of the year, like Kangxi, other ministers may be able to have some leisure at the end of the year, but there are still a lot of things to do after being sealed by the emperor, such as writing the word "Fu" or giving Spring Festival couplets to close ministers, although not every courtier has it, but several princes who have left the palace have it, and as for the courtiers like Suo Etu, Tong Guowei, Mingzhu, etc., they all have to be given.
Another example is a series of sacrificial activities of the royal family, which is not a trivial matter, and the clan's is just that, but the princes and brothers must arrive, so the fourth master is also very busy.
On Chinese New Year's Eve, the emperor would get up before three o'clock in the morning, first go to the halls to make incense and worship the gods and ancestors, and then have a family banquet with the empress and concubines.
After the family banquet, the emperor will go to the state banquet after returning to the palace for a short rest. And the so-called state banquet is the banquet: the princes and ministers, the children of the Eight Banners, and the Mongolian prince.
Of course, during the Spring Festival in the palace, there are firecrackers, lanterns, singing and dancing, a joyful scene.
"Spring rain, on this New Year's Day, do you go to the warehouse to see if there is anything suitable for this time?" Xin Yaodao, who stretched his waist.
"Yes, master", during the Chinese New Year, no matter how stable it is, Chunyu can also see a smile on his face.
This New Year, this atmosphere is so good, unlike the modern society New Year, there is no New Year's flavor, every New Year's Eve she feels like she has a holiday year.
Although she is tired here, to be honest, she still likes the atmosphere of the New Year.
"Master, how about you take a look at these?"
Chunyu took out the largest red coral in the storeroom, and some lantern cloths, all of which were of the finest kind.
"Well, yes", she doesn't care, this red coral was given to her by the Great Sage, and she crossed the Ming Road when she was in Suojuluo Mansion.
"As for the lantern cloths, you're planning to hang up the whole yard with lights"? So much cloth, it's scary to think about.
"Yes, the more prosperous this New Year, the better", it is better for the master to be pregnant with a little brother in the coming year, so that the master can be regarded as gaining a firm foothold in this Baylor Mansion.
"Hehe~", I just smiled and didn't speak!
"This red coral should be placed in this yard", anyway, it looks like a tree, so it will look more beautiful when it snows again, right?
As for being stolen, Xin Yao never thought about it. These four Baylor mansions are not just for people to come and go, and the minions in her courtyard will not be completely blind.
Xin Yao looked at it and saw that there was nothing wrong with herself, and Mama Gao and Yu Miao had all taken care of the things in this courtyard. Xin Yao thought it would be good to have a capable subordinate here!
"Master, let's cut some window grilles, shall we"? Honeysuckle proposed.
"Window grilles? Yes", it seems that it was cut last year?
"Then the slave will go and get something", Yinhua heard the master's promise and ran happily to get something.
After watching it for a while, Xin Yao, who was really idle and had nothing to do, could only enter the group to take a look.
Xin Yao little fairy: "What are you all doing?" I'm here for the New Year today! ”
Nine-Tailed Fox in the Demon Realm: "What else can you do?" Of course, it's the study of secret arts! ”
Khan, it's a secret art, if you want her to say it's an evil art!
Journey to the West World Monkey King: "Looking at the female monkey?" ”
Heavenly Realm Taishang Laojun: "Alchemy, don't make a noise!" Shrewd! ”
Celestial Broom Star: "It's good to blow it up!" ”
Xin Yao little fairy: "What about the Weaver Girl?" ”
Celestial Weaver Girl: "Raise the fetus!" ”
Xin Yao's little fairy: "You were caught back by a man"?
Weaver Girl of the Heavenly Realm: "Wrong, it was this fairy who came back by herself"
Xin Yao little fairy: "Oh? Why? I don't know what's going on? ”
Heavenly Weaver Girl: "Alas, don't talk about this, aren't you celebrating the New Year?" ”
Celestial Weaver Girl: "I have nothing to do in the past two days and have nothing to do with the crystal to make a pullover noodle, give you a set"
Xin Yao's little fairy: "No need, I have a head."
Celestial Weaver Girl: "Are you afraid of jewelry?" It's just an ordinary jewelry, and it's not a magic weapon, and you can't receive it! ”
Xinyao Little Fairy: "........."
Celestial Weaver Girl: "A little gadget, it just looks pretty, take it!" ”
Xin Yao little fairy: "Well, thank you"
It's not interesting to be modest, and next time be nice to her!
Shen Shi, Xin Yao was wearing a light pink flag suit, her long black and bright hair was combed in a regular manner, and the jewelry only used a set of pink crystal heads, which was given to her by the Weaver Girl just now and was taken out from the bottom of the warehouse.
"The master is so beautiful today", Xia He looked at the master at this moment, and only felt that the beautiful hearts of the people were about to stop.
"You little girl, when will my master and I not be beautiful one day"? How can this look not look good? Even without makeup, it's also beautiful!
"Okay, let's go", don't talk nonsense with Xia He, and say that it will be too late later.
At this time, at the gate, Xin Yao had just walked and saw that the Li clan and the Wulanala clan had also arrived.
The Ulanala clan is wearing a red flag suit today, with the neckline, cuffs, and hem outlined with gold thread, and the head of the Wufu bat with gold and jade. It looks very extravagant.
Li's is dressed in a magenta flag, the same one, with a peach-like tassel on his head, and the white and tender skin on the lining is even more attractive!
"It's all here, then let's go", the Ulanala clan saw that the people had arrived, and without saying much, they took the lead and got into the carriage first.
The Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet began in the evening, but no one really entered the palace at that moment, in addition to dressing up and preparing early, all the clan ladies and concubines Ago Gege had to enter the palace in advance to ask the queen mother, imperial concubines, and mother concubines.
