Liu Gong has been in a lot of trouble recently because of the store's accounts.
But he was still very happy when he heard that Zhu Wan gave birth to a boy.
The Liu family finally has a descendant to inherit the family!
He hurried home, completely ignoring the news that his wife had died in childbirth, and rushed straight to the wet nurse to see his son.
"Hurry up and give me a hug!" Liu Gong was impatient and hugged Qiang Guo's son in his arms.
The little baby in the swaddling clothes is soft and soft.
Her eyes haven't been opened yet, her skin is pink, and her beauty and ugliness cannot be seen.
Liu Gong peeled off the quilt wrapped around him and confirmed that there was indeed the object symbolizing male identity under the little doll, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
Although something happened at his own shop, it was not enough to offset the joy of having a son.
In order to show off the good news, Liu Gong held a banquet for his son in the largest restaurant in Dongqi Town with great fanfare.
Su Junting was happy to make this money.
Yuanbao was invited to attend on the spot.
The people invited today are all businessmen who have business dealings with the Liu family.
There were also some people who used to joke behind their backs about the use of Liu Gong's earning a lot of money, unlike Liu Gong who died without a son.
In order to regain face for himself, Liu Gong invited all these people to the scene today.
The nanny carried the son around table after table to show the guests.
Liu Gong also toasted people table after table as if he was showing off his trophies.
The atmosphere was so cheerful.
At this moment, the old housekeeper of the family suddenly walked into the banquet hall and called "Master".
He looked like he was hesitating to speak.
He just interrupted Liu Gong's move to toast Yuan Bao's table.
Liu Gong had seen what the little fairy was capable of, so he naturally wanted to coax this living god with his smile.
"What's the matter? Tell me." So, when he saw the old housekeeper, he was very impatient.
How do you look like you are crying? There shouldn't be anything unhappy today!
After all, his old Liu family finally has a child!
The old housekeeper also saw his emotions.
But when the words came to his lips, he still didn't swallow them. He said, "There is news from Zhuangzi..."
Yuan Bao's small wine glass contained milk that Liu Gong specially asked someone to pour for her.
The little one took a sip, and his mouth was covered with a piece of white, which was very cute.
Su Junting used the gesture of wiping his sister's mouth to stand aside and listen to the gossip.
The old housekeeper gritted his teeth and said, "Tell me, my wife died this morning..."
It was such an untimely death. Liu Gong secretly cursed the old lady for causing trouble.
There was still a look of grief on his face.
He snatched the child from the nanny's hands, knelt on the ground, and shouted to the west: "Mom, you have had a hard life in this life, but now that our old Liu family has a child, you can just relax and close your eyes!" "
As he spoke, he pretended to kowtow to the ground a few times.
I shouted, but there were no tears at all.
He did it just to show these people who came to the scene.
Let them see that Liu Gong is a filial man.
Yuan Bao picked up the milk and took a sip, then smacked it in his mouth, smiling sweetly at the gloomy-looking old lady who was carrying Liu Gong on his back.
Look, this is the good son you have protected for half your life and put him first in everything~
After the banquet, in the evening, Liu Gong was so drunk that he went home with his son in his arms.
My daughter-in-law died in childbirth, and my mother died on Zhuangzi.
Now he and a baby are the only ones left in this house.
Although there are still a few servants, they are usually in the servants' yard.
Therefore, his main courtyard is usually very quiet.
Especially at night, it is even more eerie.
Somewhat scary.
"Hiccup~" Liu Gong burped and said to himself: "What are you afraid of? I have a son, right?"
As he said that, he picked up his infant son and kissed him.
"I don't care if they die or not, as long as I have a son!" he muttered.
The child who was sleeping suddenly opened his eyes at this time.
The round eyes, with clear black and white pupils, suddenly turned red at this moment.
It was bloody red, as if it was about to bleed.
Liu Gong was startled, half of his alcoholism was gone.
He thought he had seen it wrong, so he rubbed his eyes and looked again.
The child's eyes became normal, but the two white and sharp fangs began to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Ah! What is it!"
Liu Gong screamed in surprise, raised his hand, and threw the child in his arms far away.
Unexpectedly, the brand new swaddling clothes spun around in mid-air and was caught by a pair of pale hands in the shadow.
A familiar person came out of the darkness. She held the child in her arms, looked at Liu Gong angrily and sadly, and said, "This is the golden grandson that my mother has been looking forward to for a long time. How dare you throw him!"
"Mother?" Liu Gong's voice began to tremble.
The old lady walked out of the darkness with a happy smile on her face.
The smile gradually got bigger and bigger, and finally it stretched from the corner of the mouth to the base of the ears, revealing a mouth of white fangs: "Hey, don't be afraid, my good son."

Early the next morning, Liu Gong woke up on the ground in the yard.
He just lay on the ground all night.
Fortunately, it's already late spring and summer is about to start, so the ground isn't that cold.
The pain in the back of his head was unbearable. He touched it and found blood on his hand.
"Master, you can't drink so much anymore." The old housekeeper and wet nurse came over and helped him up.
The two talked about what happened after he came back last night.
To sum up, it was just that he drank too much and fell to the ground.
The housekeeper and the wet nurse wanted to help him up, but their strength was limited and the man who drank too much was very heavy, so they had no choice but to let him sleep on the ground all night.
The nightmare from last night was still fresh in his mind. Liu Gong hurriedly got up and asked the nanny: "Where is the young master?"
The wet nurse went back to the room and took the child out.
Liu Gong grabbed it into his arms and took a closer look, and found that the little baby still looked like Yuxue's cute face, with bright black eyes and a normal mouth, without any fangs...
It turns out it was all just a dream, a dream.

A few months later, Liu Gong came to Su's house to discuss matters with Su Junting.
After the person left, Su Junting came to report to Yuan Bao: "Oh, you didn't look at that man. He is as thin as a rod, and his eyes are black and blue. He looks like he has been dead for several years. His shop I can’t hold on anymore and want to ask me to take over.”
The Liu family originally opened the largest pharmacy in Dongqi Town.
Business has been good.
But since the last time the accountant ran away with the money, he couldn't pay the farmers who brought the medicine. The Liu family's medicine shop was smashed countless times. In the end, it was unsustainable and they had to change hands.
Su Junting asked Yuan Bao if he could take over.
Yuan Bao nodded.
Su Junting immediately smiled like a blooming chrysanthemum.
Yuan Bao had taught him before that he could not seek wealth other than his own. Since Yuan Bao asked him to take over this shop, it meant that it was the wealth in his life and he would definitely be able to make a lot of money.
He picked up Yuanbao and kissed it.
Then I heard the little one say quietly: "But the eldest brother has to donate five hundred taels of silver every month to the Salesian Bureau~"
Su Junting's handsome face immediately stiffened.
Five hundred taels of silver, that's five hundred taels of silver... How many medicines do you have to sell to earn it...
"Huh?" Yuan Bao's eyes widened, and he seemed to think that if he didn't agree, he would give up the medicine shop immediately.
Su Junting gritted his teeth and said quickly: "Donate! Why don't I just donate!"
At this time, the shouts of the servants came from the outer courtyard.
"No, no, no, that Earth Temple in Xicheng is in trouble!"
Xicheng Earth Temple?
Abandoned Baby Tower?
