I am a painter and have great painting skills, la la la..."
Young Master Liu was riding a joint ladder he had made by himself, holding a brush in his hand and waving it by the door non-stop, shaking his head as if he had been drugged.
"Master, be careful, Xiaosong should do it."
Liu Song was anxious and sweating on his forehead below. It was finally New Year's Eve, and the young master didn't know what kind of madness he had to put up some kind of ghostly door curtain on the door. He said that there would be no atmosphere without Spring Festival couplets during the New Year. Only ghosts know what things are.
"Why don't you mess with Yaoyao? Liu Song, give the young master the Spring Festival couplets and put them up."
"Okay, Master, be careful."
"Good luck all year round, and treasures from all directions will come into your home. Hengbiao: Everything will be prosperous in your home."
Young Master Liu watched with satisfaction as the Spring Festival couplets written by himself were pasted on the door case. This should be the first Spring Festival couplet of Dalong Dynasty.
For the first time since the beginning of time, I will be leading the way.
"Wow wow wow, the eldest brother save me, the second brother is the worst, he used firecrackers to scare me."
Young Master Liu had just jumped down when Liu Xuan jumped on him and gently picked up Liu Xuan. Young Master Liu looked delighted: "Xuan'er, did my second brother bully you again?"
Liu Xuan hugged her eldest brother's neck and nodded fiercely: "The second brother is the worst, throwing firecrackers at Xuan'er."
Said Cao Cao and Cao Cao arrived. Liu Mingli held a yellow incense in his hand and a small cloth bag hanging on his waist, which was full of firecrackers that his elder brother had made for him.
Liu Mingli came to a sudden stop and looked at the little girl who was being protected by his elder brother. He was slightly startled and hurriedly hid the incense behind his back and laughed: "Brother, why are you here?"
Young Master Liu chuckled. It was outrageous for a little brat to dare to bully a younger sister.
"Brother has a surprise for you."
"Really?" Liu Mingli was stunned and immediately became happy.
Gently placing Liu Xuan on the ground, Mr. Liu took out a one-foot-tall firecracker from his back and looked at Liu Mingli: "Second brother, let's see whose firecracker is louder."
Liu Mingzhi stared blankly at the firecracker in his elder brother's hand, which was about the same size as his own wrist, and ran towards the house with a bang.
"The eldest brother is great, the eldest brother is the best, and the second brother is the worst." Liu Xuan jumped and clapped her hands, and she naturally cheered when she saw the second brother running away in fear of the eldest brother.
She pinched Liu Xuan's pink and jade-carved little face and said, "Go and accompany your mother and sister-in-law to make dumplings. If the second brother bullies your eldest brother again, he will take revenge on you."
"Yeah, brother, you have to be careful."
"You're so good, so are you. Walk slowly and don't fall."
Looking at Liu Xuan's disappearing figure, Young Master Liu waved his fist: "It's Chinese New Year, good luck."
"Master, you have made all the fireworks that have been made in a hurry. There are a thousand barrels of fireworks of different sizes."
"Beautiful, this young master must live beautifully in his first year in Dalong... in the capital. What's your expression? Why is your father still alive? Why do you act like you're mourning your heir?"
Young Master Liu looked puzzled at Liu Song's ugly face.
"Master, those fireworks are all made of fine rice paper and cost a total of thirteen thousand taels of silver, not counting other expenses."
Young Master Liu finally understood why Liu Song looked so ugly. Young Master Liu, who always cherished money as much as his life, said something that was jaw-dropping: "Hey, isn't it just silver? Just over ten thousand taels of silver is nothing. It's trivial." .”
"Well, the young master doesn't care about Xiaosong and has nothing to say."
"Xiaosong, money is very important in life, but you can't always live for money. You earn money just to spend it. If you are tired of making money but are reluctant to spend a tael, then what is the purpose of earning money?"
"Yes, Xiaosong understands."
"Prepare the carriage, fifty fireworks from the Song family of the Minister of War, twenty fireworks from the Zhang family of the Protector of the Country, twenty fireworks from the Wan family of Duke Wu, fifty fireworks from my father-in-law's Qi family, twenty fireworks from the Zhu family of Guannei Hou, and twenty fireworks from the Du family, Shangshu of the Ministry of Personnel. Twenty fireworks, fifty fireworks from the Yun family of Lord Jingguo, and twenty fireworks from the Zhao family, a member of the civil service department. Tell them on the paper what they need to pay attention to when setting off fireworks. In addition, prepare three hundred barrels of the largest fireworks and send them to the palace gate."
"Young Master, the other young ones can understand it, but Du Chenghao, the Minister of Civil Affairs, is the Young Master's enemy. Why do you have to give it away?"
"One more friend means more paths. Maybe it's the best way to get rich and resolve the past. If it doesn't work, just do whatever you want and just follow my instructions."
"Xiaosong knows."
"By the way, the family will also send ten Spring Festival couplets. Anyway, young master, I wrote a lot."
"yes."
"Go ahead."
Except for the rest of the people in the palace, they were all surprised when they saw the fireworks sent by Mr. Liu. When they knew that the fireworks were beautiful things blooming over the palace that day, they happily accepted them and returned considerable gifts.
Especially the Du family, the official minister, never thought that Liu Dadan, who had a grudge against him, would give him a gift. However, he held out his hand to avoid making people laugh. In the new year and the new atmosphere, the Du family happily accepted the gift and returned it. A great gift.
Although Du Chenghao, the Minister of Personnel, was still angry at Young Master Liu's behavior, he also had some good impressions.
"Eight items."
"Yaoji."
"East wind."
"Go to the door and give money. Give money." The Liu family's house was brightly lit, and a strong stove was burning in the main hall. Young Master Liu stepped on the chair with one foot and reached out to several people with an excited expression to ask for money.
Liu Zhi'an threw out a five-hundred-tael silver note with an embarrassed expression: "You bastard, you can't cheat, right? You've done it three times in a row, and I don't even have a clue."
"Old man, you are the conscience of heaven and earth. Don't blame your son's good luck for his poor skills."
Mrs. Liu gently handed over a five hundred tael silver note: "Master, Zhi'er is right. If you are lucky, how can you say that Zhi'er cheated? Your brand is really bad."
Qi Yun angrily threw a banknote to her husband: "Dad is right, my husband must have cheated, otherwise how could he win every time."
"Hey, Madam, you must have seen it. Girl Yun is still sensible. The bastard must have cheated."
"Old man, come again, come again. Don't blame your son for your poor poker skills."
When shuffling the cards, Young Master Liu raised his eyebrows at the lady, and Qi Yun also gave a look of understanding in return.
Good guys, the couple is digging a hole for the two elders.
A new card game began, and Young Master Liu pressed his eyes.
"Two cakes." Qi Yun immediately played out a sheet of two cakes.
"Touch, West Wind."
"Nijo."
"I still touch it."
Yun Qingshi anxiously told Qi Yun not to fight like this anymore, otherwise her husband would win more in the future.
Qi Yun shook her head and looked at Young Master Liu's gestures and smiled softly: "Thirty thousand."
"Touch, Sanjo."
Liu Zhi'an looked at his cards with a tangled expression. None of them were suitable to play. This is the heart of a novice. He felt that every card was important: "Six Pies."
"south wind."
"Haha, I'll be happy if I touch you. Give me money, give me money."
"Looking at the banknotes being recorded again, Young Master Liu yawned, stopped playing, and let the game end."
"Boy, what do you mean?" Liu Zhi'an already looks like a gambler. He typically wants to make back the money he exported. Even if he loses a few thousand taels of silver notes, Liu Zhi'an may not even blink. But it would be different if he lost. Hundreds of Liang gritted their teeth in anger.
"Old man, I can play, but mother and Yun'er can't. They are pregnant."
"Go, go, go!" Liu Zhi'an waved his hand depressedly.
"Qing Shi, you should go back and rest first." Young Master Liu pulled Qi Yun towards the backyard.
"I retire."
Liu Zhi'an gently held Mrs. Liu's hand and sighed helplessly: "Girl Yun was led astray by the gangster, and she actually got along with him."
Mrs. Liu smiled peacefully: "Master, as long as the child is happy."
The two of them, Liu Dashao and Liu, who thought they were secretive, didn't know that their little tricks were just clowns.
