Chapter 076 The Entertainment Years Ago
Walking on the street, Zhao Xing saw Xiufen's bridge house closed the door, and couldn't help but feel disappointed: "My little sister has no buns to eat tonight." But in a blink of an eye, she saw a peddler with a chopping board in front and a stove behind, and a steaming bun cage on the stove. She called the vendor at that time: "Come five buns."
The bun was hot, Zhao Xing handed the money in one hand, and pulled out the couplet package written by Luo Yangxing with the other hand, and ran home with his left hand - he had to discuss with his mother what New Year's goods to buy.
When I ran to the entrance of the alley, I saw my little sister sitting on a stone pier in front of the alley, rubbing her cheeks with her knees, looking at the way she had to pass, with a hint of fear on her face. Zhao Di accompanied her sensiblely, but she looked lonely and bored. A strong man, holding her arms, leaning against the wall, and looking around vigilantly, was the bodyguard hired by Zhao Xing for her younger sister, and Zhao Xing was really afraid.
Since the last incident happened, my younger sister's spirit has not improved completely. She always wakes up from time to time in her dreams at night. During the day, as long as she doesn't see her brother, her face always shows a look of horror, which makes people feel distressed.
When Zhao Xing appeared on the corner of the street, the little sister's original horror expression disappeared immediately. She opened her arms and rushed over like a butterfly. Zhao Xing quickly squatted down and stretched his neck. The little sister hugged him like an octopus, pressing his little face tightly against Zhao Xing's face. In her sense that the safest place in the world is where the brother's figure is within his eyes.
The bodyguard, who was dedicated and responsible, finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Zhao Xing, and stepped forward to salute Zhao Xing: "Sir, you have nothing to do today. Can I go back?"
Zhao Xing smiled and said, "You go back, it can be considered a vacation for you. Come again after 15."
Zhaodi pulled Zhao Xing to look at the little girl in Zhao Xing's arms, pursing her lips tightly, her eyes full of envy.
He took Zhaodi's hand and said apologetically to Xiaomei and Zhaodi: "I'm really sorry, your sister Xiufen's restaurant closed early today. I can only buy a few buns on the street and eat a little."
Zhaodi said with a look up: "Brother, Sister Xiufen and her father came here in the afternoon and are now helping with the guests at our house."
Zhao Xing wondered who was at his home?
The gate of his small yard was not closed. When Zhao Xing walked in, he was startled by the yard full of gifts. At this time, his mother came out and took the little girl who was holding Zhao Xing's neck reluctantly, complaining to Zhao Xing: "A child is just a little scared. It's better to wait for a stage. Why bother to get a bodyguard? I spent so much money for no reason. Children can't spoil it like this, otherwise what will happen in the future."
Zhao Xing handed his sister to his mother and explained with a smile: "I was scared to death after the last incident. I hired a few bodyguards to watch it, spend a few dollars to make my peace of mind, and also made my sister feel safe. After a while, the shadow in her heart dispersed, and when she returned to the innocent little girl, everything would be fine. Well, by the way, mother, there are so many things in the yard, what kind of customer is there in the room?"
My mother hugged her younger sister and replied, "Since the afternoon, our family has come one after another. Some have left their things and put down their books, and left in a hurry. Three or four officials said they were your colleagues and wanted to talk to you. I, an old woman, didn't come forward to receive her. You and Mr. Guo were not here, but by chance, Mr. Xiufen came over, and I would like to ask him to treat you." Then, it seemed that she praised Xiufen intentionally or unintentionally: "Thanks to Xiufen, his father helped him greet the guests, and the child helped me to prepare dishes in the kitchen, so that I could stay guests at night. Xiufen is a good child."
As they were talking, the people who heard the sound in the room came out together and greeted Zhao Xing enthusiastically: "Mr. Zhao is back. We are here uninvited, disturbing, disturbing."
Zhao Xing looked at it, but there were several other thousand households in the thousand households. He quickly stepped forward and bowed to them repeatedly: "Oh, I was a backward boy, so I came to the door to greet you all the New Year first. I really didn't expect that the brothers came to the hut, and they were really not well-received. I wish I could forgive my sins."
After the two sides greeted each other, they humbly gave in to each other and returned to the main hall. Xiufen's father Gao Sheng sued Zhao Xing and several other Qianhu households with relief and went out as if he ran away.
Yes, Gao Sheng opened a store to welcome merchants from all over the country, but he had never seen such a senior official. He was very cautious in the reception. He was afraid that he would say something wrong, and now he was relieved.
Zhao Xing added tea to six thousand households and said apologetically: "I called the commander to ask questions in the morning. When I finished reporting on my work, it was already noon. In the afternoon, I arranged for the holiday and money-sharing of the office. But I came back late, so I asked my brothers to wait for a long time. I am really sorry."
Zhao Xing, the unparalleled celebrity in the Jinyiwei at that time, did not show off his airs to these old men, but called each other one brother. The brother's call made everyone feel much more relaxed. To be honest, they were all martial artists, and they really felt awkward to take out the etiquette procedures of civil servants. Since the master was so easy-going, everyone would certainly be more relaxed.
In fact, Zhao Xing knew that he was really young, because it was a coincidence that he rose too quickly, and the old people here were full of envy, jealousy and hatred for him.
But first of all, I solved this shocking case myself. This was a real achievement, not a grasp of it. Of course, these people secretly admired Zhao Xing's methods. I saw that the emperor summoned each other several times, and the commander greeted him if he had anything to do. He seemed to be a celebrity in front of the emperor, and the commander's confidant. Of course, he was obedient and immediately gave up his prejudice and came over to contact him.
Seven people sat in this cramped hall and said things that were about connecting with each other, and they were inevitably close to each other and had no real problems. Of course, in this case, they could not say something real, as that would be a taboo.
Seeing that the conversation was almost done, Zhao Xing politely kept people to eat and drink. Of course, it was impossible for 6 thousand households to eat and drink here, and they said goodbye one after another.
When he walked into the yard, Gao Sheng reported to Zhao Xing: "Sir, this is a gift to you. You are ready. I'll prepare it if there is something wrong with it."
In this era, this kind of etiquette is emphasized. Neighbors, colleagues, and holidays, gifts and contact feelings. The host will certainly accept gratitude. When the guests leave, they must prepare a return gift, regardless of the value, but it is just a kind of heart. This is the real favor. Of course, the gift given by the boss to his subordinates is rewarded with other benefits, and there is no need to do this. If Zhao Xing is arrogant because of his favor, he does not have to do this at all.
Zhao Xing bowed to Gao Sheng gratefully: "The old man is careful and makes me lose my etiquette." Then he saw a small bag in his hands. It was impossible to buy a gift in a hurry, so he didn't worry that this old mall broke his face, so he held it in his hands one by one: "I really don't dare to be a gift from all the old brothers, I can only accept it with shame and smile. Please take this meaning back and buy a new clothes for the nieces and nieces for the New Year."
You cannot refuse the gift politely, otherwise the host will be very embarrassed, and everyone will even accept it humbly, and then say goodbye in a kind way.
Guo Guangsheng, who had finished his work in the yamen, came back. When he saw the gifts stuffed in the yard, he couldn't help but sigh: "This is really poor in the downtown area and no one is asking about it. He is rich in the deep mountains and has distant relatives. Once the boss gets the land, he will come to the door to walk around. But please grasp your own nature and don't fall into the dye vat, and eventually become a dog official who harms the people."
Zhao Xing laughed: "If you don't live in the world, you are not a clean official, you are stubborn. In the end, you are all enemies on all sides. If you encounter walls everywhere when doing things, you won't do that. Follow the local customs, be kind and stick to your original aspirations. These are my principles of doing things, don't worry, sir."
