"Why are you selling calligraphy and paintings here?"

"I didn't have anything to do in the past two days, and I thought that the New Year was coming, so I came out to write braille and sell paintings to subsidize my family."

Idle? That Chu Qingge felt that he was too busy to have wind under his feet, this Zhuge Liang actually said that he was idle and had nothing to do, and he came out to sell calligraphy and paintings to subsidize his family? !

"Are you sure you're idle and have nothing to do?"

"Sister, I'm not the prince, and I'm not the emperor. This is a major event that the royal family is going to be busy with during the New Year, and it is better for me, an outsider, not to interfere for the time being. ”

Jin Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked at Zhuge Liang with some suspicion. If Chu Qingge and Chu Qingyun treated Zhuge Liang as an outsider, they would not let him participate in their affairs.

All right! Zhuge Liang drooped his head, he couldn't admit defeat.

"Actually, Zhuge Liang wants to rest, and by the way, he sells some calligraphy and paintings to make money to subsidize his family."

"You're short of money?"

"There is no shortage, Uncle Huang has a monthly salary for me."

"Your brother is short of silver?"

"Big brother has a monthly salary."

"Then why are you setting up a stall selling calligraphy and paintings in this cold wind to make money to subsidize your family?"

There is no shortage of this silver at all, do you use it to make money in this cold wind?

Zhuge Liang: ......

Who says that if you don't lack silver, you can't make money?

"Little master, are you writing and painting again this year? Can the old man ask the little master for a couplet again? ”

An old man in ragged clothes, cowering and a little embarrassed, rubbed his hands like withered branches, and asked tremblingly.

Zhuge Liang hurriedly took the calligraphy and painting to the old man, and by the way, he also sent a few 'Fu' words to the old man.

"Take it."

Zhuge Liang handed the calligraphy and painting to the old man's hand, and the old man hurriedly said thank you.

"Thank you, little master, thank you, little master."

"Go back and see, if anyone wants calligraphy and painting, tell everyone to hurry up and get it." It's the New Year's Day tomorrow, so bring some joy to the family. ”

"Okay, good, good, the old man will go back and tell everyone. said, the little master is here again this year to send calligraphy and paintings to everyone. ”

The old man said, nodded again and again and left with calligraphy and paintings.

Jin Yuan Bao watched the old man leave, and suddenly there was no Zhuge Liang What the stall was for.

"For free?"

"These are the poor people outside the city, and they are reluctant to buy some calligraphy and paintings during the Chinese New Year. At the end of the year, it's too pitiful not to give some joy during the New Year. ”

"Boy, I didn't expect you to have such a kind heart and be merciful to people."

Zhuge Liang was suddenly depressed, how could Princess Xian say it, how could it be a little uncomfortable to listen to?

Jin Yuanbao glanced at Zhuge Liang's words, and remembered the calligraphy and paintings in King Xian's mansion, which seemed to be a little familiar.

"Zhuge Liang, did you write the words in the house?"

"Well, when I was in the palace, my uncle and father-in-law asked me to wrap the calligraphy and paintings of the palace and the Xianwang Mansion."

"Chu Qingyun doesn't write it himself?"

She remembered that it seemed that during the Chinese New Year, the emperor would usually write some blessed calligraphy and paintings. Why, this could have become Zhuge Liang's writing?

"Uncle Huang wrote it, but not much."

Every year, the emperor basically writes a few stickers at once. If the whole palace is asked to write by the emperor. Isn't it that the emperor is going to take a three-day break from the court, and he will use it to write this calligraphy and painting. How many doors and windows are there in this palace, and if this is written, how many days will it take. This emperor, do you have anything else to do? It's all written!

On his own, it took three or five days to write all this. Moreover, this follow-up post, or something, was made by the eunuchs. If I had to do it all by myself, I wouldn't have been able to do it all in a month.

"Sister, if you also pity these ordinary people, should we give charity on the first day of the new year?"

"Almsgiving?" Jin Yuanbao's eyes lit up, and then he asked Zhuge Liang, "What are you going to do?" ”

"On the first day of the new year, how about we deliver dumplings?"

"Is it too late?" Jin Yuan asked with some suspicion.

It will be delivered the morning after tomorrow, and it will be tomorrow's day. This will have to make dumplings, and there is no skin, and there is no meat filling. Do you want to make dumplings? Moreover, do you know how many people come to pick up dumplings the day after tomorrow? That's more, less, and it also requires a budget.

Zhuge Liang was silent for a while, this will make dumplings, it seems to be a little rushed.

"Does that sister have any good advice?"

"How about sending rice and cloth? I just looked at the clothes on the old man's body, and it seems to be some years old. This New Year's sewing and mending also get a new dress to wear, it is better for us to send cloth. There are also a lot of cloth villages in this capital, and we use the royal identity to requisition. Then, let the next person pass the word, saying that tomorrow at noon, we will give it at the gate of the city, and let the people come to receive it. How is it? ”

"That's fine, why don't you send fish to my sister?"

"Sending fish?" Jin Yuan looked at Zhuge Liang with some doubts, where would this toss so many fish?

"Yesterday, when I was outside the city, I heard a few fishermen saying that there were many boatloads of fish outside the city. It's just that there is no way to find a market, so I am a little worried. Well, we will buy this fish and give it to the people. In this way, we can help the fish sellers to reduce their burden and save them from dying, and we can help the common people. Sister, what do you think? ”

"Okay, you can do it if you feel like it." Gold ingots don't have any concept anyway, she has always believed that money is something that life does not bring and death does not take away. Now you have saved and saved the door again, and when you stretch your legs, no amount of silver will be yours.

If you say that if you take the silver to the coffin after you die, then you are waiting for the risk of being robbed of the tomb. No, there is a possibility that the tomb will be robbed.

"Well, I'll take care of that."

"And what about your calligraphy and painting?" Jin Yuan asked.

Zhuge Liang glanced at his calligraphy and painting stall, and said with a smile: "My eldest brother has gone to the thatched house, and he will come over later." ”

Jin Yuan Bao was stunned for a moment, so the booth of this calligraphy and painting was not made by Zhuge Liang at all, but by Zhuge Nalan's broken scholar?

As soon as Zhuge Liang's words were finished, Zhuge Nalan's scholar-like figure slowly walked over from a distance. When he saw that the figure standing on the stall was a gold ingot, he hurriedly walked over.

"Wang ...... Concubine ......" Zhuge Nalan stammered, never expecting to see Princess Xian in front of his stall.

"Is there nothing to do in the palace?"

"If you go back to the princess, the ministers don't have to go to court from tomorrow morning to the fifth day of the Lunar New Year." Therefore, after he finished the court today, there was nothing to do.

Furlough?! Jin Yuan Bao was stunned for a moment, it seems that there was also a New Year holiday in ancient times. This is also reasonable, and he has been busy with the court all year round. This is the New Year's Day, and it is time to rest.

Zhuge Liang leaned over, and after writing some words, he hurriedly said, "I'll go and get busy first." ”

After Zhuge Liang finished speaking, the person left quickly.

Zhuge Nalan looked at Zhuge Liang, who was leaving in such a hurry, and wanted to stop, but before he could speak, Zhuge Liang was already drowned in the crowd.

"Zhuge Nalan, have you found anything unusual when you look at the sky at night recently?"

Zhuge Nalan was stunned for a moment, and then remembered what Zhuge Liang had said in his ear. No matter what Princess Xian asks the eldest brother, the eldest brother has to say no. Otherwise, this virtuous princess will definitely run away from home again.

Thinking that this virtuous princess dared to run away from home with the fold, Zhuge Nalan's heart trembled. If this is said, maybe the princess will do something.

"No, no. Recently, Wechen didn't find anything unusual about this celestial phenomenon. ”

"Really?" Jin Yuan Bao said with a look of disbelief: "Then why did this princess find that there was something abnormal on this day when she was watching the sky at night?" ”

"If you go back to the princess, it may be the reason why these days are going to be the New Year, so it is inevitable that there will be some abnormalities on this day."

Zhuge Nalan had a drop of sweat on her forehead, does this virtuous princess need to be so sensitive? He is also guessing that there are strange ideas in this world, and this virtuous princess already knows it first?

Seeing Zhuge Nalan's flickering eyes, Jin Yuan knew that there must be something unusual in this.

This Zhuge Nalan's appearance is probably warned by someone and he is not allowed to tell himself. There are only a few people who can make Zhuge Nalan obey.

Apparently, they don't want to know that for themselves.

"Really? How did the princess hear that something unexpected happened somewhere. ”

"Princess, Weichen doesn't know about this matter. Princess, Weichen also wants to give calligraphy and paintings. ”

The gold ingots immediately understood that this Zhuge Nalan had given himself an eviction order.

Jin Yuan Bao thought, if this was if the dragonfly was by his side, it was estimated that when Zhuge Nalan said this, he would have already jumped to his feet like thunder. This Zhuge Nalan was also too bold, and even gave Princess Xian an eviction order.

Stranded just glanced at Zhuge Nalan coldly and didn't say anything.

Just this glance, Zhuge Nalan felt like a cold blade swept by. A woman with such eyes is not a simple character at all.

"Stranded, let's go."

"Weichen sends off the princess."

The gold ingots ran aground and went to wander around again. Walking to a place where there were few people, Jin Yuan Bao glanced around and pulled the corners of his mouth lightly.

"Miss?" Stranded is a little incomprehensible, why did this gold ingot stop when he walked here.

Taking out two paper cranes from his arms, the gold ingots said to them: "Go and ask me, is there something wrong?" ”

The two cranes moved their legs and feet, and then flew away.

Stranded looked at the departing paper crane and asked the gold ingot.

"Miss, are you suspicious ......"

This young lady means to doubt this Zhuge Liang! Didn't Miss treat Zhuge Liang as her son-in-law? How do you doubt it?
