Chapter 477: The First Day of the Lunar New Year

"Everyone has worked hard in the past year, come on, come on, say that Hou Ye is so handsome, there will be red envelopes to take, first come, first served!"

Li Mu stood on the chair, shaking a stack of red envelopes in his hand, his face full of red light. I came back late last night, although I didn't enjoy the blessings of all people, but being in the same room and lying in clothes was finally one step closer to my dream, and the important thing was that I didn't quarrel, which made Li Mu very happy.

Early in the morning, he prepared a bunch of red envelopes and distributed them to the subordinates of the Zhulu Hou Mansion. In fact, during this period of the Tang Dynasty, there were no red envelopes. The origin of red envelopes will not exist until a thousand years later, in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. But Li Mu, as a traverser, still cares about these? He can have it if he wants, and it is not someone else's money anyway.

After living together for a long time, the cooks and gardeners in the family also know Li Mu's temper, in general, Hou Ye is a very good person, as long as he doesn't make any big mistakes, he usually doesn't get angry. It's much better than serving in other mansions.

And a few big girls in the family, such as Xiaozhu Xiaomei, because they are often in the inner house, they meet Li Mu more often and understand each other better, and their sense of fear is even smaller, not only are they not afraid, but they will occasionally tease them, but when Li Mu is angry, they are still silent.

After distributing a bunch of red envelopes, the family ushered in many guests. Led by Changsun Chong, a group of students from Datang Technical School came to visit Li Mu. Li Mu originally wanted to entertain and entertain, but when he saw that there were too many people, he simply avoided it, ate a few dumplings, said hello to Bai Qiaoqiao, and took a group of people from Hula to Jingdong Ji.

Because of the warm-up of Datang Daily, the people of Chang'an City all know that Jingdong is lively today, and as soon as the door of the workshop opens early in the morning, a group of people hula squeeze in. The people who are reluctant to spend money on weekdays have also brightened up under the backdrop of this New Year's atmosphere. The roadside stalls are booming, and they are overwhelmed one by one, making a lot of money.

Li Mu brought enough money today, he made two purse purse, one hung on the neck of Changsun Chong, and the other hung on Tang Guan's neck, the two of them followed Li Mu's side, like a second general, Li Mu saw something, they automatically went to pay, and Li Mu also bought not a copy, with him, even the children who joined in the fun, he also bought a copy, in the name of having fun with the people.

When he saw the cute child, he also stuffed broken silver into other people's swaddling clothes, and the child cried, but the parents who held the child were happy.

Li Mu really loves this atmosphere! It was a lot of fun, and everyone had a smile on their faces. This kind of smile is a smile from the heart, not the smile squeezed out when he was in the orphanage, catching up with the New Year's holidays, well-wishers came to send warmth, and was hugged and photographed.

"The polo game is about to begin! If you want to place a bet, hurry up! ”

There was a shout in the distance, and Li Mu led people to hula and surround him. Tang Guan played the role of a dog's leg very well, and asked with a grin: "Who is it to whom today?" What are the odds? ”

"Eh, this young master, today is the first game, the opening battle. It is Xingdaofang against Pingkangfang, it is said that the owner of Pingkangfang is the king of Hejian County, and he will end up in person. ”

Tang Guan's face turned green, and he said: "Where did you hear the news, the king of Hejian County will personally end the game, who believes it!" ”

"The little one doesn't dare to lie, look inside, the one with the purple armband, isn't it the king of Hejian County?"

Li Mu looked up and saw that it was really Li Xiaogong, the king of Hejian County. No wonder he didn't go to the palace for a banquet yesterday, he was preparing for today's game. This old guy is also busy enough, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, and at the same time devoting himself to sports, and his general physical strength is unbearable.

Li Mu drooped his eyelids and said, "Who is the owner of the Xingdaofang team?" Say it and refer to it. ”

"It's our host, Su Guogong."

"Su Guo Gong...... Shouldn't you end up in person? ”

"No, the owner said that he was too old to end up, so he let his six sons replace him. The six sons are all gone, and you see, the west is warming up. ”

Li Mu glanced at it, but no, the six swarthy young men, the lightest one, was Cheng Chumo.

This game is not interesting, Li Mu shook his head and said, "Come on, I won't watch it." Which of you likes to watch, who looks, I'll go to the ring and hang around. ”

Changsun Chong seemed very interested, but when he saw that Li Mu was leaving, he was a little hesitant. Li Mu saw it, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "You don't have to follow me, you can do whatever you like, it's a big New Year, it's lively." ”

The eldest grandson nodded and watched Li Mu walk away, before he took out two ingots from his sleeve and slapped them on the head of the Pingkangfang team, shouting: "I will press twenty taels of silver, and Pingkangfang wins." ”

"Give you the credentials, one pays three, you take it, don't lose it."

"I want to win the Dao Fang!"

"I'm going to crush ......"

There was another commotion.

Compared with the bustle at the entrance of the racecourse, the ring is a little more deserted. It's not to blame for being cold, just look at the people here to know what the reason is.

Look at the people next to this ring, who has a good person. Either this person has a scar on his face, or the person has a face full of meat, as if all the Jiangyang thieves in the world have gathered. Li Mu and Tang Guan came to the front and saw that someone was fighting in the ring, the two sides went back and forth, flying up and down, and it could be seen that they both had good kung fu, while Dugu Jiu stood on the edge of the ring, holding a sword and examining the two, it seemed that he was ready to stop him at any time, so as not to kill anyone.

"Big brother, I'm here!" Li Siwen's voice came from not far away, Li Mu took Tang Guan over, saw that there was a girl next to him, and couldn't help but show a playful smile, and then saw Qin Huaidao next to the girl who looked like he had eaten a fly, and confirmed the identity of this girl, the eldest lady of the Qin family, Qin Yu.

"Big brother, this is my daughter-in-law."

Qin Yu stood up shyly, gave a bow, and whispered to his eldest brother. Li Mu laughed, put his hand into his sleeve, took out a red envelope and stuffed it into Qin Yu's hand, and said, "This is for you, and you should change your mouth." ”

Qin Yu had never seen a red envelope, so he didn't know what to do with it. Li Siwen didn't care about that, put the red envelope gun in his hand, opened it and saw that it was a few gold leaves, smiled, and said: "Lady, look, it's not copper or silver, it's gold!" Sure enough, it's my eldest brother, who made an extraordinary shot, unlike your eldest brother, I went to pick you up today, and I was almost beaten! ”

Qin Huaidao's face was full of black lines, he stretched out his hand to pat Li Siwen's hand, and said, "Don't move your hands and feet, you haven't married yet!" It's a shame that I'm following, if I don't follow, maybe you will do something! ”

Li Siwen has been by Li Mu's side for the longest time, and he has practiced some of this mouth, and when he heard it, he said: "Don't you know your sister's kung fu?" If she doesn't want to, what can I do? Brother-in-law, I think you are a bad person in vain, we husband and wife you love what I want, you also have to come to get involved, and your sister will marry me in half a month, and then you can still follow us to Dingxiang? ”

Qin Huaidao's face turned red and said angrily: "Do you also know that you will get married in half a month?" Meeting before getting married, it doesn't make sense! You kid still has the cheekiness to say, I'll fight with you-"

Li Siwen hid behind Li Mu and said, "What are you fighting?" Am I not telling the truth? ”

Li Mu also echoed: "Good apprentice, don't let my younger brothers and sisters laugh." ”

Qin Yu looked at Li Siwen, then at Qin Huaidao, and laughed. Qin Huaidao was even more depressed, hugged his shoulders and turned his head to the other side, and was silent.

Li Mu sat next to Li Siwen, pointed to the platform, and said, "How is it, do you have any good hands?" ”

Li Siwen is also a figure on the ruling side, and in Dingxiang for half a year, he has also led a team to suppress bandits, and he has seen fights, kills, and killings. Although he doesn't have any martial arts himself, his vision has been practiced. Now that his wife is beside him, how can he not show off. So I began to comment on the pairs of characters I had just compared, and I actually said it well.

With Li Siwen's explanation, this scene also came to an end. After dozens of moves, one of them was obviously inferior, and just when he was about to use the hidden weapon, Dugu Jiu drew his sword and stopped between the two, stopped his behavior, and judged that the side that did not use the hidden weapon won.

The two got out of the ring and changed to another pair to continue the competition. Li Mu asked Li Siwen next to him and said, "How many people are using hidden weapons in the ring?" ”

"It's not too much, but it's quite a few." Li Siwen said disdainfully: "A manly man, if you can fight, you can beat it, if you can't beat it, you can't beat it, what kind of hero is it to use a secret weapon, such a person is not too much to lose." ”

"Oh?" Li Mu asked curiously: "Then if you don't judge the loss, and the two of you fight for their lives, who can win?" ”

"This ......" Li Siwen thought for a while, and said reluctantly: "If it is a fight for life, the martial arts of the two sides are comparable, and naturally the person who uses the secret weapon is surprised, and the victory is greater." ”

Li Mu smiled and said, "So it's a talent," Seeing that Li Siwen was about to speak, Li Mu waved his hand and said: "I didn't say that their approach was right, but Siwen, you have to remember that to do things on the rivers and lakes, you must first be able to survive, too decent, what's the use of dying?" Jinyiwei not only wants to be above board, but also has some pickled things behind his back, which need people to do, and such people may not be suitable. ”

Li Siwen was a little ignorant, but he didn't refute it, he was used to listening to Li Mu's words.

After looking at it for a while, Li Mu called Dugu Jiu down, gave him some instructions in his ear, and left with Tang Guan. Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and he is going to pay New Year's greetings to the Sun family, just going with Tang Guan. And Bai Qiaoqiao's side, I went back to my parents' house in the morning to take a look, and at noon, I was going to the Juguo Mansion to pay New Year's greetings to my mother-in-law.

Yesterday, I already said that I would have lunch at the Juguo Mansion today, and then I would come back. Li Zhien also wants to go together, after all, she is going to marry Li Mu on the Shangyuan Festival, and she has to have a good relationship with her mother-in-law.
