A heavy snow quietly covered the entire Liang family ancestral hall and even the world outside the ancestral hall, thick and white.
A frog is frozen in the snow, holding up its compass legs, as delicate as a toy.
The heavy snow sealed the door and the door could not be pushed open.
The old man was clearing the snow at the door of the east wing, like a small black dot, surging in the white world.
This is the biggest snow Liu has encountered since he arrived in Liang State.
At this time, the guards in the city came from all directions.
People inside and outside the ancestral hall soon filled up.
Pulling, pushing, sweeping, when the sun rises above the head, the yard has become as clean as ever.
It seems that the Liang family still attaches great importance to the ancestral hall.
This child is still dressed in the same clothes as every day.
He held the white snow dumpling in his hand and ran towards Liu Bancheng from a distance.
One after another they were launched like missiles.
He said his name was Lidong and he was born on the day of Lidong.
Accompanied by his childlike laughter, Liu Bancheng was moved to hide here and there.
Liu Bancheng felt that he was indeed old.
I have been immersed in the adult world for too long. It seems that I am doing serious things all day long, but in fact I have lost a lot of the fun of childhood.
When I was young, there was a large trench stretching into the distance behind my hometown, as high as a three-story building.
Standing on the ditch and overlooking the village, row after row, the smoke is faint, it is so spectacular.
When Liu Bancheng shouted "plum blossom", there would be three sounds of "plum blossom", "plum blossom" and "plum blossom", or more "plum blossom" sounds coming back from far or near.
If you shout softly, the sound coming back will be very small.
If you shout loudly, the sound coming back will also be loud, which Liu Bancheng finds particularly magical.
After just a few shouts, Mei Hua would run over from the village.
Especially on a snowy day, Mei Hua listened to Liu Bancheng's words, took her own shovel, and staggered to the trench.
Liu Bancheng gave her a sample first.
With the shovel handle forward, the person sat on the shovel board, holding the shovel handle in his hand, and bravely slid down the slope of the trench toward the snowier side.
Liu Bancheng, who was sliding down, would open his mouth wide and scream, like a rocket, rushing downwards with lightning speed, so happy.
When he reaches the bottom of the slope, a snow mist will be washed up on the snow. Liu Bancheng, who has climbed up from the snow mist, climbs up again and slides down again.
After going up and down a few times, the plum blossom will start to rise into the snow waves with Liu Bancheng's encouragement.
Recalling Mei Hua's frightened and excited screams, Liu Bancheng felt that the child in front of him was just like himself and Mei Hua back then, but now he no longer had the wildness and freedom of his childhood.
Life is only a few decades long. The world of adults is too boring. What a wonderful time for innocent children.
Liu Bancheng put down his tools and had a snowball fight with Xiao Lidong.
However, this kid is like a child when he is crazy, but when he plays chess, he is as calm as an old man. Every move is calculated.
You must concentrate to have a chance of winning, otherwise you will be defeated by a child if you are not careful.
I've been losing a lot of chess lately, mostly because of the problems with the club.
Because since the last time I helped her settle two wedding companies, it seemed that things were over.
But in fact, in Liu Bancheng's opinion, this may not be the case.
Because the difficulties in moving forward may be more and more difficult, and the problems a woman needs to face are unpredictable.
So I have been worried.
But two months later, the plum blossoms did not come even once, which surprised Liu Bancheng.
There are two situations. One is that Dilan and Caihui cooperate very smoothly and live in harmony.
Another situation is that something big is going to happen, but the situation is stuffy in front of her and she doesn't want to come to him.
The result was just as Liu Bancheng had judged. One day at noon, Meihua opened the door and came in, carrying a basket of fruits in her hand.
This plum blossom seldom takes care of herself like a woman. She is lavish and careless, just like a man.
Liu Bancheng basically judged Mei Hua's purpose from her expression.
Liu Bancheng and the child were playing chess, and Mei Hua stood behind Xiao Lidong, watching quietly.
From time to time, he also helped Xiao Lidong make moves.
Every time he made a move, Xiao Lidong nodded and said yes, but his chess pieces never moved according to Mei Hua's idea.
So Liu Bancheng quickly lost the game, and Xiao Lidong ran outside to continue playing with his snow.
"How are you lately? It's been a long time. Is everything going well?" Liu Bancheng deliberately kept the atmosphere calm.
"Smooth as hell, smooth!"
"Oh, how can a woman say bad words!"
"This is all because of my urgency. You said that Caihui Company and that Dilan Company, they are both fucking useless! We fight all day long, and something happens every time. I am going crazy!"
Liu Bancheng smiled and handed the water to Meihua.
Plum Blossom blocked it back,
"Not thirsty!"
"What's going on? Tell me what's going on?"
"Sometimes the weddings of their two families are squeezed into one day. For example, in the morning it is with Caihui Company, and in the afternoon it is with Dilan Company. Sometimes it is with Dilan Company all day long, and in the evening it is with Caihui Company."
"Isn't that great? Everyone can do their own thing without interfering with each other?" Liu Bancheng said pretending to be relaxed.
Plum Blossom is anxious.
"Okay, Liu Bancheng, are you pretending to be confused or are you really stupid?"
"You know that every time you withdraw, time is counted."
"They left the stage, and we organized the staff to clear the tables, remove the plates, remove the tablecloths, sweep and mop the floor, and there was no time to take care of the two of them leaving the stage and entering the stage?"
"I know this, don't worry, go on." Liu Bancheng said.
"The styles of the two venues are different, and the decorative materials used are also different. For the next one, I hope that the previous one will be evacuated quickly. For the last one, I felt that the task was completed and I didn't rush to evacuate. I will take care of everything. Check the quantity of the things and put them back according to the size of the box, so that they can be used in the next session. One is in a hurry and the other is not. Those who are anxious can be tolerated at first, but as the cooperation lasts for a long time, they start to think that the previous one The game is deliberately stalling for time. When I wait for the time to play, I will not have enough time, so I can only play in a hurry, either missing this or missing that, and the customer is very dissatisfied."
"In addition, every time when the venue is moved out, the previous wedding company has not yet finished moving out, and the equipment of the next wedding company has to be moved up in a hurry, because some new equipment needs to be added to decorate the venue. We will see for the next one The people from the previous scene were busy up there. They were laughing, cursing, and grumbling down below.”
"At first we thought it would be slower, but it doesn't matter if there aren't any big conflicts and it won't affect the overall situation."
"But one time when Dylan's company was leaving the show, a candle as thick as a bowl was accidentally knocked over and set the entire stage curtain on fire."
"The scene became chaotic. Some people rushed to the stage to put out the fire, while others were busy escaping. Those leaving the stage had no intention of leaving, and those entering the stage were unable to enter. They watched the fire burn to the shed. By the time the people who came up put out the fire, it had already been delayed for an hour. After such a long delay, the customer was not satisfied."
Liu Bancheng understood, "For major marriage events, the ceremony time is calculated according to the birth date. It is unlucky to be off by an hour."
Meihua said, "That's right, so the customer asked Dilan Company to compensate for all the losses. Dilan Company thought that someone in Caihui Company was causing trouble, and Caihui Company certainly refused to admit it, so all three companies came to our Xiangshantang to seek justice."
"No one from the three companies inside the door would let anyone in, and the employees from the two companies outside the door started to quarrel."
"At this time, the relatives and friends of the next client were already waiting on the first floor. They filled the hall on the first floor and were extremely anxious. The groom took the bride downstairs and waited there. Wait until the above is finished and go upstairs.
However, the employees of the two companies above had already started fighting and formed a group.
First there was a fight between employees, and then there was a fight between two managers.
Soon the board was covered with blood, and the noise, curses, and cries reached the sky. "
At this time, another group of strong men came up from Caihui Company. They all seemed to be soldiers. Within a few seconds, they suppressed all the managers and employees of Dilan Company and knelt on the ground.
Liu Bancheng said, "Where is Hall Master Lin Zongren at this time?"
Meihua said angrily,
"Hmph! He was on the corridor on the second floor, holding his arms and looking down!"
"Then why didn't he come down and stop it? Or he asked the Prime Minister to send troops to control the situation."
Liu Bancheng didn't understand Lin Zongren's behavior, but it seemed like his behavior.
He could imagine Lin Zongren's gloating look at that time.
