Splendid little maid

Chapter 174 Cold Food Festival

After Chen Xi pondered, he said: "It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years. We have to avenge the revenge of being taken advantage of. Since they ran away, let's go back and find out who they are, and look for opportunities to find them. If there is another Shame on them directly?"

Yu'er and the others nodded obediently, thinking that this was the safest thing to do.

When Chen Xi saw this, he told them again, telling them not to care about their gender if they feel uncomfortable or offended, they must say so, and let them learn from Huang Heli how to reject others.

Yu'er and the others nodded obediently, but they just thought of the rumored excessive masters, if they were really molested, what would they do, and they could only find a way to refuse.

Time passed quietly.

In a blink of an eye, it was the Cold Food Festival, and it was only one day away from the Qingming Festival.

Yes.

That's right.

In this superficial era, although there will be some places that are different from the earth, and the history is not the same as that of the other side, but at the same time there are many similarities.

As a result, Chen Xi can quickly integrate into it here, and she doesn't feel so lonely, because the words are all familiar words, even if the simple ones are turned into complex ones, the daily food is also the food she has seen before.

This made her feel less empty, especially when she found that the festivals here were the same as those in her previous life, she felt that the world here was more intimate.

Cold Food Festival.

It is on the 105th day after the winter solstice of the lunar calendar, and one or two days before the Ching Ming Festival. It is also called the No Smoking Festival, the Cold Festival, and the Baiwu Festival.

There are many allusions to this festival, and there are many sayings. The specific ways of celebrating the festival are different in different places, but most of them are sacrifices, outings, and eating cold food for the festival.

And in her previous life, few people knew about it, but in her hometown, it was done in the past, but as she grew up, many old customs and habits were simplified or omitted.

Now that Chen Xi travels here for the festival, he also feels that his psychology is quite delicate.

This morning.

They got up early.

A few days passed, and everyone gradually got used to this kind of leisurely daily life.

When Yu'er wakes up, she will call Xiaocui to ask the women to fetch face water and come to the courtyard.

They don't need to do heavy work anymore.

The little girl's body is immature, and she can't bear the heavy lifting.

Xiaocui can't do it.

Generally, it is the strong men who send the women to fetch water and carry the water.

Chen Xi and the others can have clean toiletries and clean water when they wake up, but it is usually hot, and there is no fire in the house today, so the water is cold.

When she picked up the cold water to wash her face, she was shivering from the cold. The well water was really cold, but it made her wake up a little bit, and she was not so sleepy.

Yu'er took care of herself early, and when she stood aside and handed the cloth towel to Chen Xi, she was startled and said with concern: "But the water is too cold? Xiaocui said it was done early and left to dry in the yard." After a while, the well water will be cooler when you get up early."

It's hard for her to be so caring, but she can still think of doing this, it's really appropriate.

Chen Xi took the cloth towel and gently blotted the water from his face, then smiled at her and said, "Fortunately, you despise it for being cold in spring, and you will love it in summer."

Yu'er also smiled when he heard the words, and chatted about trifles again: "This cold food festival is also celebrated in our hometown. We prepare the meat to eat today one day in advance, and we don't open the fire, but I didn't expect it to be eaten in the Huangfu. There is also such a custom."

Chen Xi used a cloth towel to absorb the water droplets on his face, then searched for the memories in his mind, and suddenly laughed, "I also said that I don't have any impression, it turns out that my family has been using cold pots and stoves all year round, and I am used to it. Not impressed."

Originally, her mother ran away, her father was not serious, she was not at home all year round, so she naturally had no impressions of festivals, she herself was just wandering around looking for food all day long.

Life is not stable, how can I pay attention to these festivals.

After hearing this, Yu'er felt sad for a while, and felt that their sister Magpie was really powerful. Although she was born in the market, her life was not as good as that of them in the countryside.

Although they are not loved, at least they have family members, unlike her, who has always been so lonely, and she can't even remember these festivals clearly.

Seeing this, Yu'er quickly expressed his opinion, and said with a gentle smile, "We will be here in the future."

Chen Xi was rinsing his mouth with fragrant tea, he was startled when he heard that, then he smiled and nodded.

The fish also smiled happily.

Chen Xi asked Xiao Cui who was waiting outside to have her things removed after washing, and she also thanked her for her thoughtfulness, it was also careful to ask someone to dry the well water.

Xiaocui smiled shyly, and said: "It's all right, I should have shared the worries for the girls. By the way, breakfast is also prepared. In previous years, cold noodles were eaten in the mansion. Girls Do you want to eat now or wait a little longer?"

Seeing this, Chen Xi asked Yu'er, "Where is the young master? How long have you been up?"

After hearing the words, Yu'er recalled and said: "The third young master got up quite early today, I was always looking for his movements to get up, but he told me to keep quiet and not to wake you up, he was going to clean up by himself Just go over and say hello to the old lady."

She said and added: "But I saw that no one was following, so I called Fuzhu and Linglong, and they went with them. Girls Pei Qin and Pei Hua didn't see you, Sister Magpie, and thought you were sick Well, I asked you."

Chen Xi didn't expect so many things to happen when he woke up so late?She suddenly said nervously: "And then? What happened after that? Are they to blame?"

Yu'er smiled and said: "Sister Magpie, don't be nervous, Fuzhu and Linglong said that you are the one who is worrying about us here, and you are exhausted, so the third young master asked you to rest for a while so that you won't wake up You, that's why I let the two of them go."

Chen Xi laughed when he heard these two little cleverness, and then grasped the point: "Since you know, then they must be back? The young master is in the study again?"

Yu'er smiled and nodded and said: "No, I went to read as soon as I came back, but Miss Pei Qin and Pei Hua also said that there is no need for the four of us to follow when we go back to say hello, we can keep two of us in the courtyard, in case someone comes. Guests are welcome too.”

Chen Xi was relieved when she heard these words, her heart suddenly lifted just now, compared with the panic of being late for school, now it finally landed smoothly.

"Ms. Pei Qin and Pei Hua are really generous and willing to give us advice."

Chen Xi knew that they had all spoken, and it was usually okay to do so.

The fish also nodded.

Hearing this, Xiao Cui also complimented her and said with a smile: "Now our third young master is the most rare person of the old lady, who dares to treat us badly? They will naturally be more polite."

She said sourly, thinking of the things she didn't invite them to see, it was really difficult for her to be happy in her heart, and she was very emotional.
