On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, everyone worked together to clean the Qixia Courtyard inside and out.
Xiao Yao asked Sister-in-law Li and Aunt Gu to boil hot water, and everyone took turns to take a hot bath and change into clean clothes.
In the evening, Xiao Yao paid everyone salary, in addition to three times the monthly money, gave each person a big red envelope of five taels, a pair of leather boots made of autumn chrysanthemum, and also gave each person five days off, so that they could take a holiday from the afternoon of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and come back on the afternoon of the fifth day of the new year, and go home to spend the New Year with their families.
There is only one request, not to tell family and friends about anything about Qixiayuan.
Everyone was so happy that they didn't know what to say, so they all agreed and knelt down to thank Xiao Yao.
Xiao Yao also asked Cao Zhong and Li Gui to give Xie Yi a tael of silver each to the janitor of Jiaomen and the person who rented a carriage for them.
The maids in the courtyard couldn't sleep all night with excitement, and the two little maids didn't sleep all night.
They are not only happy to be able to go home for the New Year, but also excited that they can get so much money back to their families tomorrow, the family does not know what kind of happiness they have, the average person can spend a year with ten taels of silver, and the least of them has more than a dozen taels.
This is not counting the monthly money issued by the royal government.
Xiao Yao was also very happy, after deducting the cost and wages, she made a total of more than 900 taels of silver, minus 700 taels of silver to buy the grange and open an account, and retrieved the night pearl that was pawned for money.
She has two hundred taels of silver left.
After the end of the year, it can be sold for another half a month.
The money in his hand will increase a little, and he has land, a house and money, and he can be regarded as a successful person.
The heart is beautiful.
Early in the morning of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Aunt Gu and Sister-in-law Li got up to prepare New Year's meals for Xiao Yao and Xiaocui, and the two little maids and several big maids also consciously and voluntarily joined to help, they did not let Xiaocui work, saying that she had been with Miss well in the past few days of the New Year, and they were very grateful.
Soon prepared one or twenty dishes and a lot of pasta and fruits, and Xiao Cui used the pot to heat it up when she arrived.
Qiu Yue and Xia He also wrapped a hundred dumplings, everything was ready to stop, everyone left after worshipping Xiao Yao one by one, Xiao Yao asked Cao Zhong and Li Gui to be responsible for sending everyone to their home by car and the two of them left.
After everyone left, the courtyard was quiet all of a sudden, Xiao Yao and Xiaocui felt empty in their hearts, only the two of them, there was no home in this world, and there were no relatives waiting at home for them to go back, Xiao Yao felt very sad when she thought of her parents in another world.
She was afraid of making Xiaocui, an orphan, sad, so she pretended not to care.
The princess knew that Xiao Yao had let all the people in the courtyard go out for the New Year, and she was afraid that no one would serve her, so she specially sent two big maids in her room to serve her temporarily.
The prince also sent two small servants around him to guard the courtyard for Qixia Courtyard in his busy schedule, Xiao Yao thought about it, such a big courtyard, only she and Xiaocui were really a little scared, so they stayed.
It was getting dark, and the princess's family went to the palace to accompany the emperor for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Xiao Yao resolutely did not go with them, she really didn't want to join in this excitement.
Firecrackers were being set off everywhere outside, and the little guy who was guarding the door also got a hanging of firecrackers and put them up, and Xiao Yao had been practicing calligraphy.
She was originally going to make a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner with Xiao Cui, but Xiao Cui didn't let her do it.
Xiaocui cooked dumplings, made six cold dishes, and brought them into the house, Xiao Yao put down the pen and washed her hands, and asked Xiaocui if she had sent food to the guard, Xiaocui replied: "It's been delivered, it's the same as us."
Xiao Yao asked Xiaocui to take two small jars of wine, gave one to the little guys, and kept one for herself and Xiaocui.
The reason why Xiao Yao repeatedly asked the princess to give people a holiday was because she thought that she would no longer be able to celebrate the New Year with her parents, and she felt uncomfortable, so she did her best to let the people in the courtyard who had families and parents go home to accompany their parents for the New Year, so that she felt better.
In ancient times, the alcohol was not high, and it was stronger than the mash wine, and neither of them dared to speak, but they were afraid that they would cry as soon as they opened their mouths, so they drank the wine one by one, and soon a jar of wine was drunk, Xiao Yao asked Xiaocui to take another jar, and the two of them drank a little high.
Xiao Yao staggered up and took out her beloved violin from the wooden box she brought, and said to Xiaocui with a big tongue: "Xiaocui, our hometown is sitting around the table at this moment to eat and watch the Spring Festival Gala, you have no entertainment here, it's too boring, Miss Ben will play you a few tunes today, let's be happy."
After speaking, he didn't care whether Xiaocui could understand it or not, so he adjusted the piano tone and played it by himself.
Xiao Cui looked at the young lady drunkenly and shouted: "Okay!
Good!
” Xiao Yao plays whatever tune she remembers, one moment it is "The Sun Shines on Tashkurgan", one moment is "Seaside Tone Poem", and the other is "Dance Music".
Xiaocui has never heard such music, and she doesn't understand any music at all, and she can't hear any artistic conception, but she just thinks it's very pleasant, very beautiful and as good as fairy music.
Happily shouted loudly: Okay!
Xiao Yao became more and more energetic, and even the pop music "Chrysanthemum Terrace" and "Blue and White Porcelain" were pulled.
When she was tired, Xiao Yao stopped to drink a glass of wine, ate a few mouthfuls of food, stood up and pulled again.
She finished almost all the pieces she could play, that is, she didn't play the most well-known violin song "Liang Zhu" in her previous life.
She was afraid to play the piece, and instinctively avoided it.
Xiao Cui was already drunk and kept shouting to listen to the tune, Xiao Yao was so dizzy that she couldn't think of any tunes anymore, so she had to start playing "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" This is one of the best pieces she played, and she won the first prize in college.
With the beautiful melody, Xiao Yao slowly entered the world of Liang Zhu, that Zhu Yingtai became himself, and that Liang Shanbo unconsciously became Wang Dong's appearance, the lingering of eighteen send-offs, the difficulty of resisting marriage, and the sadness of turning into a butterfly.
Xiao Yao's tears fell one by one, and finally she simply put down the piano and fell on the table and cried.
Xiao Cui's wine was scared to wake up a lot, and quickly shook it over to make amends to Xiao Yao, Xiao Yao cried and said: "Xiao Cui, it's none of your business, it's my own heart that is uncomfortable, I wish the people I liked in Yingtai to turn into butterflies and become pairs with her, and the people I liked before didn't like me at all...
I miss my mom and dad, I want to go home...
Woooooooo ” Xiao Cui saw Xiao Yao crying non-stop, and she couldn't hold back the tears she had endured for a day, and she also cried loudly.

A good Chinese New Year's Eve turned into a big crying party.
Zhao Ruiyun, who ran out of the house to see Xiao Yao, heard the cry as soon as he walked to the window, and his heart was shocked, he turned to the door in a few steps, opened the door curtain and came in, only to see the cups and plates on the table in a mess, and two drunk women hugged each other and cried.
Afraid that the sudden sound would frighten the two of them, he had to cough lightly, and the two who were crying didn't hear it at all, so he had no choice but to raise his voice and cough again, now Xiaocui heard it, turned around and looked at the wine and woke up a little more, when did Young Master Yun come in?
Zhao Ruiyun said to Xiaocui with a stiff face: "How did you serve Miss?"
Why did you make the young lady cry?
Don't say hurry up and make Miss happy, you are still crying, it's too unusual!
” Xiao Cui quickly admitted her mistake.
When Xiao Yao saw Zhao Ruiyun coming, not only did she not stop crying, but she was even more aggrieved, crying and said, "Second brother, someone is bullying me, I want to go home, can you send me home?"
Woowoo" Zhao Ruiyun looked at Xiao Yao crying like a pear blossom with rain, felt his heart pull a few times to the side of his ribs, hurriedly stepped forward to support her, and gently coaxed him and said: "Sister, don't cry, who dares to bully my sister, my brother will help you teach him a lesson, don't cry first, tell my brother well." ” Xiao Yao said with tears in her eyes: "My brother can't teach him, I won't let you teach him, it's not his fault, it's his sister's fault, my sister likes the wrong person." ” Zhao Ruiyun's heart almost stopped, what?
Could it be that she is in love with the fifth brother?
In my heart, I knocked over the vinegar jar for a moment.
Holding back his jealousy, he asked, "Who does my sister fall into?"
” Xiao Yao's consciousness became more and more unclear, and he muttered: "You are not allowed to tell others, even my mother doesn't know, it's Wang Dong on the other side, but he doesn't like me, he got married, married someone else."
Woooooo Crying and crying, he fell asleep in Zhao Ruiyun's arms.
There were still teardrops on his eyelashes.
Zhao Ruiyun slowly picked up Xiao Yao, walked to the bed, put her on the bed gently, carefully took off her shoes, gently covered her with the quilt, and sat on the edge of the bed and looked at her without blinking.
Xiao Cui, who was standing on the side, was scared stupidly, how could the young lady say that the girl couldn't say that she couldn't say that she didn't dare to say anything that didn't conform to the rules and etiquette?
is still in front of a big man like Young Master Yun, and how can Young Master Yun hug Miss?
It's one thing to save lives, and now it's up to me to serve the young lady, aren't men and women intimate?
He was still sitting next to the young lady and watching the young lady, which was not good!
Xiao Cui came to the bed, knelt down for Zhao Ruiyun and said, "Young Master Yun, you shouldn't have heard what Miss just said, our Miss was drunk and only talked nonsense, I beg you to forget it all, otherwise my young lady's reputation will be damaged." ” Zhao Ruiyun was thinking nonsense in his heart: Listening to her words, it shouldn't be the fifth brother, who is that Wang Dong?
The right person?
Mom doesn't know?
What does that mean?
Xiao Cui knelt in front of him and said a lot, he didn't listen at all, in order to take her away, he said to her: "Xiao Cui, you quickly clean up, boil some boiling water, your young lady will be thirsty in a while." ” Xiao Cui hesitated for a moment and said: "However, Young Master Yun is already late, and the young lady is asleep, should you go, you can rest assured that I will serve my young lady well." ” Zhao Ruiyun listened, and stood up and left with great reluctance.
