Qi Kang'an had never come across these before, and he was immediately confused as soon as the housekeeper reminded him.
In the past, it was common for them to send gifts back and forth in their village. It's just that they were all from the same clan, and they were very particular about things like ancestor worship, marriage, and housewarming. There were already a set of rules.
A complete set of etiquette, just follow it.
But to be fair, except for the major events mentioned above, the ancestors usually stick to each other more or less because of their ethnic origin, such as visiting relatives or attending festivals and New Year ceremonies. Most of them are just random things.
This kind of intention is naturally something that is within the ability and does not feel bad when you take it out.
It can be said that everything Qi Kangan saw on the ancient shelves in his house was extraordinary, including porcelain vases from the previous dynasty, paintings from the previous dynasty, a jade Buddha that was bigger than his two fists put together, etc.
None of these can be explained by the word "mind".
According to their past, if the owner felt that the things given by others were too valuable, they would return them without the other party saying anything. It was just a gift in exchange for the gift.
Unexpectedly, this method does not work well in Beijing.
There was a small warm basin on the table, and an iron kettle was placed in the warm basin to heat water. Qibaoer got up and poured himself a cup, holding it with both hands and taking a few sips.
"It's okay, Dad, just leave this matter to Butler Qi. He knows what to do."
Just before leaving the palace, Eunuch Qi specifically told her in the name of seeing her off:
In addition to living in the East Palace in the palace, the prince also has a prince's residence in the capital. The current butler in her residence was one of the three inner court stewards in the prince's residence before coming to the princess's residence.
Qi Bao'er didn't care why the prince gave her the chief steward of the inner courtyard of his palace. Anyway, she took advantage. How could a person who could be one of the chief stewards of the inner courtyard of the prince's palace be an ordinary person?
As for surveillance and so on, Qi Bao'er is not worried at all.
What is there to monitor in her home?
She wants money but no money, power but no authority. The only thing she can do is her ability. But the question is, who is that person? The prince of a country, the future emperor, how can there be many people who can use it?
It's fair to calculate. Is it possible that anyone who has the ability should be sent to the Inner Court to be the chief minister?
We can't think of all the bad things when a powerful person gives us a benefit. Maybe they just help the poor?
Qi Bao'er has a big heart and doesn't like to think too much. She feels tired and panicked.
In addition, she has a strong sense of perception. She can tell whether others are good or evil to her with just one look, so she feels very relieved about the housekeeper.
She feels relieved, and so does praying for health and safety.
"Okay, my dear, if you say that, then dad won't care about it."
After thinking for a while, he felt something was wrong, "No, dad still needs to know how the housekeeper does things. Now this is your home, my daughter. In the future, this kind of coming and going will definitely be inevitable. Dad can't always be confused.
You still have to learn.”
When Qi Baoer heard this, she almost spit out a mouthful of hot water. She looked up at her father, who was speechless. She opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end she said nothing.
Forget it, silly dad is in high spirits right now, so it’s hard for her to say things like, ‘These are things women at home should worry about’, so as not to irritate silly dad.
Fortunately, Qi Kang'an didn't pay much attention to this matter, and he changed the subject in a blink of an eye.
It was almost midnight, and the father and daughter went to rest without chatting for a while.
Because the old man slept in Qi Bao'er's house, my daughter is still young, and there is an inner and outer room. The outer room is in the style of an Arhat, which is spacious enough for several people to sleep on their sides. Pray for good health.
I simply slept on the other side of the soft bed with Old Man Qi at night.

The princess's mansion finally welcomed its master. The servants who shuttled around the mansion early in the morning all had smiles on their faces. Even the servants who pruned the branches felt that their hands with scissors were particularly strong today.
In any mansion, if the master is there, the servants will have confidence. What's more, the master just entered Beijing yesterday and became the princess from the county master.
The person who came to issue the edict was Eunuch Qi, the chief chamberlain around the emperor, and they had really seen Eunuch Qi's cordial attitude towards their master yesterday.
There were rumors that their master was favored by the emperor, but that was just a rumor.
In fact, all the servants in the princess's palace have some backgrounds. One of the two nuns is from the prince's palace, and the other is from the queen's palace. The servants are all led by housekeeper Qi, and the maids are all fine.
Carefully selected.
These people have either undergone rigorous training or have served others and performed outstandingly.
So everyone knows that there are rumors about this stuff, so just listen to it.
Sometimes even what you see is not necessarily true.
So after they were transferred to the Princess's Mansion, because the master Qi Bao'er had never appeared, and they knew that Qi Bao'er was just a farm girl, except for the housekeeper Qi and Aunt Ren who came from the Prince's Mansion, the others had a
For one, I have no idea about my future.
I am afraid that the master will not be able to serve me well.
As for farm girls, many people will instinctively classify them as uneducated and uncultured.
As we all know, Qi Baoer got the name of County Lord because he saved the prince.
It doesn't matter how she was saved. The point is that she was awarded the title not because of her high knowledge or what she did for the court or the Qilin Kingdom. It was just that she happened to meet the bitch prince when he was in trouble.
With this sudden rise in power, will you forget everything you have done?
It's okay to bully servants like them. After signing the contract of betrayal, your life belongs to the master. They have already prepared for beatings and scoldings.
The most fearful thing is that the master forgets who he is because of his sudden gain in power. If he offends someone he shouldn't offend...
Although the life of being a servant is not your own, who would not hesitate to take their own life?
Everyone was waiting and waiting in their hearts every day. After being hung up for more than two months, yesterday the heart finally fell to the ground.
Seeing that their master is such a delicate little girl that cannot be described in words, and then seeing everything that happens next...
God is kind to them!
Qi Bao'er, Old Man Qi and others didn't know the thoughts of the people in the house. After eating the breakfast carefully prepared by the cook, the family got on the carriage again and set off to the street.
Everyone has arrived in the capital, how can they not go to the streets to join in the excitement of the New Year’s Eve shopping?
There are so many people on the street and it’s really lively.
However, there were no such phenomena as they imagined, such as huge crowds of people, noisy heads, congested roads, etc.
The roads in the capital extend in all directions, and even the alleys are wide enough for two carriages to pass opposite each other. It is not a problem for several carriages to run parallel to each other on the main street.
There are also guards patrolling the road on horseback. If there is a slight traffic jam, a guard will immediately step forward to take command.
The inner city is the sole of the emperor's feet. There are either royal family members or dignitaries living in it. Shops and the like do not exist.
After leaving the inner city, there are shops everywhere in the outer city.
However, the most famous and most visited one is the shopping street located on Dongjie Street.
The name is so direct and appropriate. The whole street goes straight to the city gate, and there are either shops, restaurants or teahouses on the left and right.
