Passerby's daily life

Chapter 289 Give Yourself a Like (Part [-])
On the 17rd of the twelfth lunar month in the 23th year of Kangping, the Hong Mansion was extremely lively on this day, and the mansion was decorated with lanterns and festoons, which was not much more than New Year's Eve.

As for the excitement, it was not only because this day was a small year, but also because two years ago today, the hostess of the Hong Mansion, Mrs. Su, gave birth to a daughter at dawn.

So today is also the second birthday of the daughter of the Hong Mansion.

Like two years ago, the heavy snow fell all night last night and stopped at dawn.

With a thick layer of snow on the ground and the moon still hanging in the sky, even though it was still past four o'clock, things could be seen clearly outside.

At this time, the servants in the mansion also got up one after another.

Cleaning the yard and sweeping the snow is unintentionally the heaviest job. Where the masters live and go frequently, there must be no snow scum left.

The seven or eight servant girls of the rough envoys were all wearing thick cotton-padded clothes and trousers, and a long bikini armor with a crimson red fine cloth lined with rabbit fur.

With fur gloves on their hands and sheepskin boots on their feet, they all sighed and quickly swept out the path paved with bluestone slabs, lest the servants who were on duty soon fall.

It is one thing to get hurt from a fall, but it is more problematic to delay the errand.Especially today is the girl's birthday.

After a while, the side rooms on both sides of the main room in the inner courtyard were brightly lit from the windows, and a few rough women who had been waiting for a long time hurried over with hot water and knocked on the door!

A fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl with delicate features opened the door. She was only wearing a jacket and shivered when the cold wind hit her.

The woman who delivered the water hurriedly blocked the door with her body, and said softly: "It snowed last night, Miss Fubao, go in quickly!"

The maid named Fu Bao also quickly asked the mother-in-law to bring water in, and gently closed the door. "Trouble mom!"

When the old woman entered the door, she felt the heat rushing towards her face, and she was very envious.

It's a good life to be a maidservant. The annexes where she lives are all covered with underfloor heating. In other rooms, she has to put on a cotton-padded jacket when the charcoal is burning, but this room feels hot even if she only wears a jacket!
The rough woman thought so, but respectfully placed the wooden bucket filled with hot water in the wash room separated by a screen, and brought out the toilet bucket by the way.

When she came out, there was another girl wearing a half-new and old pine-colored jacket, sitting at a local wenge wooden table, pouring a sip of herbal tea to drink.

"How does Miss Xibao drink herbal tea? The kitchen is already on fire. I'm going to ask for a pot of hot water for the girl."

The maid named Xibao waved her hand, poured herbal tea into her mouth, and then said: "Where can I drink the tea from the previous night! This is the boiled water that was left to dry before going to bed last night. The ground is warm because it is warm, just wake up. Your throat is dry and smoking!"

Xibao poured another glass and asked, "I just heard from my mother that it's snowing outside?"

It's not the mother-in-law who nodded, "No, it's the same as when grandma gave birth to the eldest girl the year before last. They went all night and stopped at dawn!"

"Grandma really hit the mark. If my mother is not busy, she can run an errand for me and tell the kitchen. Grandma ordered to boil a few more pots of red dates and ginger soup, and asked everyone in the house to drink two large bowls to relieve the cold.

If anyone caught cold yesterday, they should go to Aunt Zhao (Zhao Yousheng's) to get two medicines to fry and drink! "

After Xi Bao finished speaking, the old lady said happily, "I'll tell the kitchen right away."

The man in her family didn't wear big clothes when he got up last night, but the charcoal basin had been extinguished long ago, so he got up with a stuffy nose today.

Although she complained about the head of the family for a long time, she calculated for him how much money it would cost to take the medicine, not to mention, at least fifty money was gone without the "full attendance bonus" for missing work, until the head of the house deeply realized her mistake, and then she gave up.

But whoever loves a man, and the grandma in the house is kind and generous, the two of them have saved a lot of money, and the two medicines are still affordable, and they are planning to go to the pharmacy to grab two medicines after finishing their errands today return.

Who would have heard the good news now, how could she be unhappy.After going out the door, I handed the toilet bucket to the old sister who was begging, and said the good thing about the Buddha, and hurried to the kitchen.

The other servants who got the letter first also recited the Buddha's name again and again, saying "Grandma must be the reincarnation of the dragon girl next to the Bodhisattva" and so on, only referring to Susu's saying that there is something in the sky, but there is nothing on the earth.

In the side room, Fu Bao, the maid who opened the door earlier, also came out after washing her face, looked at Xi Bao with a half-smile, and said, "I'll have to see in a while, will the sun come out from the west today? You are such a good person, Qiaozong, you actually asked a rough envoy to do it!"

Xi Bao gave Fu Bao a blank look, and said as he walked towards the clean room: "I'm just going to ignore you, and you were going to bury me for the rest of your life for that stupid thing! Wasn't it young at that time, no one had committed any crimes! "

Fu Bao laughed and said, "Why did you just bury you, I was just praising you!"

"Thank you Nei!"

Xibao entered the clean room, looked at the pretty girl reflected in the half-person-high glass mirror on the wall, grinned, revealing two sweet dimples.

Back then, grandma obviously didn't like her, and she was so mean-spirited, and she just wanted to dislike her. It wasn't anyone else, even Xibao thought that the best ending for her was to be sent to the Zhuangzi by the master, and to be married to a servant when she was old, and she would be like this for the rest of her life !
But no one thought that grandma not only didn't get rid of her, but also began to reuse her after all the sisters Fendai left.

In a blink of an eye, she has been a maidservant for two years, and she is considered to be the only one in the mansion. Now, whoever sees her doesn't call her "Miss Xibao"!
Xibao thought that she would never forget what grandma said to her when she saw her alone.

"People say that God loves foolish people, but I believe that opportunities are always only given to those who are prepared. It is not a bad thing to have a few minds. The bad thing is to be smart!

You are not a girl with a crooked heart, but after entering this wealthy town, you can't recognize yourself.

Remember, being a servant is not only loyal, but also has a duty. "

At that time, Xibao only thought that grandma was going to drive her out of the house, and she scared herself to death, so she never expected to hear such words.

Up to now, Xibao remembered that he didn't dare to cry out loud, but in fact, his face was full of tears and snot.

And what made her want to find a crack in the ground when she thought about it now was that she asked her stupidly after hearing what grandma said.

"Grandma isn't driving the slaves out of the house?"

After hearing this at that time, grandma immediately had a regretful expression of "I'm afraid she is not a fool".

Immediately, Xibao's IQ went online, and he knelt down to his grandma with a "plop", showing his loyalty.

Later, after getting acquainted with grandma, she could also talk to grandma like Sister Fendai. Grandma also told her that if she hadn't recovered her spirit in an instant, then their master and servant really had no destiny up!

Now Xibao looked at himself in the mirror, who was very smart at first glance, imitating his grandmother, and gestured in front of the mirror, "Thumbs up for today's self!"
