On this clear morning, Zhao Douan was woken by the noise within the mansion.
The document appointing the new Master had already arrived two days earlier; learning that their eldest son was being promoted, the entire Zhao family was jubilant, immersed in an atmosphere of celebration.
As the head of the household, You Jinhua believed that taking up an official post was a major event and must be treated seriously.
According to Great Yu's traditions, on the day a new official assumes office, the family should clean and sweep the courtyard to wash away the dust, seeking a favorable sign of "renewal day by day."
Therefore, early in the morning, the servants of the Zhao family had risen to carry out a thorough cleaning.
Breakfast was very sumptuous.
While eating, the beautiful woman cheerfully said,
"The official robe of the eldest has already been ironed with a 'fire pot,' the servants' hands are clumsy, later, Aunt will help you put it on herself."
