1. The four major organs

Next Chapter

Folk describe the "four major organs", some say "leprosy head, sore legs, girl X, painter's mouth", some say "lice head, foot belt, pig killing water, painter's mouth", the front of the old also changed, only the fourth, "painter's mouth" is the dirt of the iron plate nails, recognized dirty, no matter how you wash it, it can't be washed clean.

Someone has to ask, why is the painter's mouth so dirty? Impossible, right? Seeing people dressed like dogs all day long, sitting there fiddling with paper and pencils, inkstones, and paints, where is the dirt? Maybe there are beauties on the side with the help of "red sleeves and fragrance", I didn't say that Yanfu is enough, it's still dirty?!

Ahem, you're talking about a painter, not a painter, what does a painter do? The painter is engaged in civil engineering, which is such a civil engineering bureau, in which there are carpenters, masons, bricklayers, etc., etc., and the painter is responsible for painting on the roof and eaves that have been built. This is the painter. Why is the painter's mouth dirty, you can't paint that brush at all times, right? It's dry, it's dry, I can't draw a pattern, what should I do? You can't climb up with a big pot of water to draw it, how heavy it is! At this time, the painter's mouth comes in handy - the pen is dry, the mouth is licked, the pen is moistened and painted, and after half a day, the mouth will be wiped and smeared. So it's dirty.

The Liao family is a family of civil engineering and a family of painters, and their family was born as a painter from the beginning, and after several generations of painstaking management, when it came to Liao Qiu's □□father's generation, it suddenly became prosperous. Liao Qiuli's grandfather is a generalist, capable, and fierce, and his kung fu is superb, and his kung fu is also very hard, with the right person, he threw himself on the right path, and followed a group of rebels who were not so successful at that time, and threw himself into the hands of Xiao Yilong, the head of the rebel army, and contributed money and efforts, how many years later, the world became the Xiao family, and the Liao family also got a brand of the imperial construction factory because of the merit, and the royal work was taken by the Liao family, and the small work was disdainful, can it not be prosperous!

The business is proud, and the family is also thriving. Liao Qiuli has five brothers, five sisters, and ten cubs are all brought out of the same nest, with the same father and mother, Liao Qiuli's father Liao Shixiang did not accept concubines, and he was also a different species.

Even more heterogeneous are the brothers of this family.

The eldest brother Liao Yunwen, called Yunwen, is actually the one who eats the bowl of rice of the dart master, and he is silent on weekdays, who says that he is annoyed, and roars in a muffled voice: Don't make trouble! Then everyone didn't dare to make trouble, this is the style of the big brother, magnificent, and a voice will make a difference! rushed to this faction, and the people in the rivers and lakes said that he was "quiet and steady".

The second brother Liao Yunwu, called Yunwu, but he didn't understand the fists and feet at all, but he loved to mix with the rouge gouache needle and thread, and opened the largest fat powder shops and grocery stores in the whole imperial capital. Just like the money is not earned, it is floated downstream, casually shot, in the year of famine, to give alms to the porridge, the second is allowed to run in the forefront, in addition to the silver for turnover, the rest of the rest are all put out to give alms to the porridge, build sheds, buy medicine, and the roadside died, also buy a thin coffin to wrap it, carry it to bury, and send it anyway. Because of the second brother's righteousness, the people of the rivers and lakes praised him as "righteous and thin".

The third brother Liao Yungong followed their father to build the factory, and the Liao family construction factory is getting bigger and bigger, the original four Taikou are now increasing to eight, and their father can't take care of it for a while, so he let the third child follow. The old three-man is fine, the smiling tiger, compared to the father, his brain is an abacus, there is no need to talk about the accounts or something, no one wants to play sloppy with him, no one wants to be sloppy in front of him, whoever is sloppy is unlucky, who is unlucky, who is bad for eight lifetimes of blood mold! People say that the seven tricks are exquisite, and his heart and eyes have more than a hundred tricks, and the people who compare his heart and eyes with Confucius will stay cool while it is early! It may not be so easy to understand if you talk about it, but let's understand it when we talk about something.

For example, once, Xia Jingtian, the day was hot, the third child went out, wanted to see the business in Taikou near his home, walked to the street, ran into a melon stall shouting and trading, how sweet the watermelon was, how good, how cheap, he stood down and prepared to buy one, the first time the melon seller came here to sell, he didn't know that the person who bought the melon with him was difficult to get, he just saw the third man with fine skin and white meat like a scholar, and wanted to "mix the scales", and he gave about (yao) five catties of four catties of six melons!

Isn't this unlucky, whose scales are not good, mix this one! The third child didn't say anything at the time, so he picked up the melon and checked it in his hand, and asked the melon seller, is it enough to scale? If the melon seller is an understanding person, he should loosen his mouth at this time, send two good words, and pick a bigger melon for him to finish, but he didn't, and he had a hard mouth, saying that I am the most fair here, saying that five catties is five catties, and a lot of money! The third child has never seen such a big one, so he laughed and said with a smile that the melon seller, I said that you are not enough to scale, your melon is four catties and six taels and two dollars, and I am three or two dollars. The melon seller is also unlucky, he thinks this guy is blind, oh, you say four catties and six taels and two dollars will be four catties and six taels and two dollars, which is so accurate! I said again, I don't want a carload of melons for one or two, and I will give you away for nothing! Okay, free of charge.

Then these two people went to Liao's Taikou, and found a scale at random, which was really crazy, it was four catties, six taels and two dollars, no more, no less! The melon seller was unwilling, shouting that you had colluded to deceive my melon! Try a different scale! Then they brought all the scales of a street, calibrated the stars, and about one handful, and they were afraid of people, all of them were four catties and six taels and two dollars! The face of the melon seller was gray, but the words he said were like a fart that was released, and he couldn't take it back, so he could only watch the third child unload a cart of melons, and the whole street was divided and eaten. was standing stupidly, his liver trembled in pain, the third child came over, handed him a small bag of broken silver, and said, it was a very good melon, why don't you sell it well, you have to mix people with a few taels of scales, these taels are full? Got rich? From now on, I will make a good living, and I will plant as much as I want. The melon seller couldn't imagine that there would be silver to take, so he promised in his mouth, retreated with a huff, and returned home to weigh the bag of broken silver, which was the melon money of the cart of melons, no more, no less! The third child is so shrewd that the people in the rivers and lakes are convinced, saying that he is "good at scraping the old way".

The fourth brother Liao Yunneng inherited the orthodoxy of the Liao family, that is, civil engineering, from the point to the mason, bricklayer, carpentry, anyway, he has to know the work in the factory. He has learned so many jobs, and he can study and ponder, but he doesn't like to do the work of a painter. I hate it when I see it, I am lazy to take a pen and paint, do you say that he thinks this job is dirty, the mason sees the mud all day and night, and the whole body is dyed with mud, which is not cleaner than the painter, in the final analysis, I just don't love, I have no interest, and I don't want to do it. He did a good job in other civil engineering work, saying that it was good is saying that it was less, it should be said that it was good to be in the sky, being a dragon, maybe he could fly away if he put his eyes on it! It's that magical. The fourth child's work, the people of the rivers and lakes also respected, saying that he was "ingenious".

The fifth is Liao Qiuli. Why did the name of the fifth child rhyme and not follow the word "Yun"? The first four - Yunwen Yunwu, Yungong and Yuncan, are complete, what else can be allowed? I can't allow it, I can only think about it again, that year's autumn pear harvest, Emperor Manchu Kyoto is this thing, Liao's father saw it and felt it, so he simply called Qiuli. What if the harvest was apples that year? What about jujubes? What about winter melon? What about gourds? You can't really think about it.

No matter what you say, the fifth child called Qiuli such a "sad" name, on the surface, this name has nothing to do with pears, it will only make people think of some bleak wind and rain, what "Lin Hua thanked Chunhong, too hurried", what "old lotus leaves, pale yellow, old pole wind swaying" and the like, bitter and sad, the kind of bitterness that ran for a few days alive, unlucky, Liao Qiuli and his mother had a quarrel with his father for this name, ruthless, and insisted that this name was about to "blow the lamp and pull out the wax", not good, hurry up and change! His father asked his mother, what do you think is good for it? His mother is a person who has read books for a few days, but there is nothing new to think about, give birth to a son, of course, I want him to grow up safely, and there is no illness or disaster in his life, so I thought about it and said, should it be called "Laifu"? His father's face was "want to talk about it", silently looked at his infant son, and thought, it's not your father's heart, it's your mother and her......

Fortunately, his mother has a lot of ideas, one after a while, out of the full moon, the fifth is no longer called Liao Laifu, but Liao Wufu, the fifth is just on the door of Wufu, so it's decided, Wufu, Liao Wufu! His mother was born at thirty-eight, and the first four brothers and five sisters were all older at this time, and they listened to their mother's words of five blessings all day long, and they couldn't bear it, and they only sympathized with the "Maomao" who pulled the seedlings at the bottom, and didn't dare to talk more, for fear that their mothers would be interested and change their names together......

Wufu was called to the age of five, and suddenly changed back to Qiuli. Why did you change it back again? That's the case, Liao Wufu had a serious illness at the age of five, and almost didn't die, and looked at how many medical centers were useless, and which medical centers let them prepare for wrapping in advance, so that people didn't have to send it. His mother didn't give up, cried once, and took him to Yunqing Mountain, worshiped under the door of Yunqing Lao Dao, and changed the name back to the old Dao, and said, the old five lives are heavy, and the blessings are also thick, so they shouldn't be called Wufu, it's better to call Qiuli, go to the evil spirit, store a blessing, maybe it's good from now on. I don't know if the old man's medicine worked, or if the name change worked, Liao Qiuli recovered anyway, and he didn't die in the middle of the road. However, from now on, half a year will be spent on Yunqing Mountain, until the age of thirteen. In short, one foot in the world and one foot outside the world.

Liao Qiu came down from Yunqing Mountain when he was thirteen years old, and returned to the world, there is nothing to do, go to a private school, he is not old anymore, and he is not so old enough. What to do? You can't let him walk around. So when his father went to work, he also took him with him and let him watch. With it, looking at it, the child was fascinated by the work of a painter. He felt that so many flowers, birds, fish, insects, fairies and beauties could come out with so many color sketches, so he wanted to get this too, pestering his father to let him take him to learn painting. His father couldn't help it, so he discussed it with his mother, yes, let him learn! I never thought that this guy really had this talent, what to learn and what to draw, it's a bit interesting! After learning for more than a year, he has a blue posture, his father doesn't dare to underestimate him, and he also takes him to the side when he has a big job, not to mention, the original rigid failure, after this kid's drumming, covered up the past! And this cover is still a stroke of genius, it looks more than pleasing to the eye, it is simply so natural that it can't be more natural, as if it was born to be painted like this! Later, his father always took him with him when he had a painter's job, and later, this half-grown son took charge of himself and became another pillar of the Liao family.

In the fifteenth year of Liao Qiuli's departure, their family took over a big job - to repair the stage for King Su's courtyard. Who is King Su? Today's holy brothers, the number one person who has to be used in front of the emperor, stomp on the land of the imperial capital and tremble a few times! Such a high-powered figure, itself is not easy to get, what is even more tricky is that Su Wang Xiao Ke's temper is notoriously violent, extremely difficult to serve, this time he named the Liao family to undertake the work, at best, it is said that he fell in love with the Liao family's work, and at worst, this is not known which way the gods have offended, and people have come to the door to measure the Liao family! Liao Shixiang didn't dare to slack off, so he summoned all the shopkeepers of the eight Taikou overnight, together with the third, fourth, and fifth, and more than a dozen people to discuss what to do. After discussing and discussing, we still have to take it.
