Li Mu thought for a while and said, "Then in your opinion, what do you think is the best thing to do?" ”

Wang Ou pursed his lips and did not make a sound.

"It's impossible to fix! I have this temper, and I don't bend over! You don't have to worry about this, I have my own way, after all, this Jiangshan is still surnamed Li, it's not something that those scholars can control, they can eat it once in my hands, and they can eat it a second time, I just want them to know. Datang has changed, it's not their group of old things who have the final say. ”

Seeing Li Mu say this, Wang Ou didn't dare to say anything, and was worried that he would be angry, so he kissed him and said, "Okay, okay, just worry about me, I'll go back first, I've been living here in Jingdongji for the past few days, and I'll come to me when I'm free." ”

"Hmm-" Li Mu replied indistinctly, looking like he was still angry. Wang Ou could see that he was not really angry, and he didn't care, so he turned around and walked to the door.

Fat Da, who had just finished eating the nest head, saw that Wang Ou was gone, his little eyes blinked, twisted his round body, and "fell" from Li Mu's legs.

Wang Ou heard the voice, turned around and saw Fat Da, and said with a smile: "Do you want to come with me?" ”

Fat Da hugged Wang Ou's leg and looked back at Li Mu.

"You white-eyed wolf!" Li Mu smiled bitterly, waved his hand, and said, "Go, it's the right door anyway, let's play with my aunt." ”

Fat Da seemed to understand, and screamed several times, squeezing Wang Ou with his body, as if urging her to leave quickly, as if he was afraid that Li Mu would regret it.

"Whatever it eats, call someone to come and get it." Li Mu instructed, Wang Ou nodded, and went out with Fat Da.

At this time, Bai Qiaoqiao came back from a bath, saw Fat Da and Wang Ou going out together, and asked, "Husband, why did Fat Da go away with Sister Ou?" ”

"I have to follow...... I don't know what's going on with this guy, I have it, and I haven't seen a few times with a gull. Okay, don't kiss me, kiss her, bastard, rebel! ”

Li Mu didn't fight in one place, hugged Bai Qiaoqiao, and arched into her arms: "Godson can't be trusted, madam, let's have an insurance!" ”

Bai Qiaoqiao's face blushed: "In the courtyard, let people see——"

"Who dares to see it?" Li Mu said viciously: "Who dares to watch it? Xiaomei, Xiaolan, look at me marrying you to the butcher! ”

The two maids ran away laughing, Li Mu hugged a princess, hugged Bai Qiaoqiao, and ran into the house with a roar like a bandit robbing Mrs. Zhai.

In the warehouse, Li Zhien and Xiaozhu were stocking goods, and when they heard the voice, they couldn't help but pouted a little with a little taste, but thinking that in another month, she would be able to marry Li Mu, and the vinegar in her heart was reduced a lot.

However, there still seemed to be a trace of sorrow between the eyebrows, Xiaozhu could see it clearly next to him, and asked, "Second lady, do you have something on your mind?" ”

"Nope." Li Zhien smiled, diverted the topic, and said, "Hurry up and stock the goods, it's already late." ”

Xiaozhu "suddenly realized" and said, "I know! Are you in a hurry to sleep with Hou Ye? ”

"Yikes!" Li Zhien blushed and shouted: "Shameless girl, I think it's true that you want to find your mother-in-law, no matter how much you talk, I'll find you a pockmark tomorrow!" ”

Usually mixed together, they all know what kind of temperament and temperament they have, Xiaozhu is not afraid at all, and grinned: "Master Hou said to find a butcher, you said to find a pockmark, it's really a family." ”

"Of course!" Li Zhien snorted proudly, watched Xiaozhu go to order, and let out a sigh of relief.

She leaned against the doorframe, watching the crescent moon rising in the sky, and scene after scene flashed in her mind. Finally, she froze on a beautiful middle-aged woman, sighed again, and all the images disappeared, she pursed her lips and looked down at the account book.

……

On the willow tops of the moon, Wang Ou also finished bathing and was ready to rest. Fat Da was not far from her bed, and she had already slept soundly. What Li Mu didn't know was that the reason why Fat Da liked Wang Ou had nothing to do with Wang Ou's beauty, in fact, it was because of a spice.

The snake spirit is an organization, as the name suggests, and snakes are companions. Although the snake is psychic, it is a beast after all, and even a domesticated snake is at risk of getting out of control. As a thousand-year-old sect, the snake spirit has had disciples who have died tragically in the belly of the snake for generations. But it has also figured out a lot of tricks, which can be used in the process of domestication, so that snakes can distinguish between friend and foe, and reduce the possibility of outbursts and injuries.

This kind of thing is called "ambergris". The snake is called "little dragon" in the folk, hence the name. The process of making ambergris is very complicated, and among them is an herb that is colorless and odorless to man. But for pandas, it's a fatal attraction.

When pandas smell this, they can't help but get close. If you smell too much, you will fall into a deep sleep. The main altar of the snake spirit is in the middle of the 100,000 mountains, which also happens to be one of the main habitats of pandas. When the snake spirit people were making ambergris and collecting herbs, they discovered the panda's penchant for this grass, so they named this nameless herb "Pixiu grass".

Wang Ou has been with snakes for many years, and it is natural that the smell of ambergris is inevitable on his body. It is precisely when Fat Da smells this breath that he is particularly close to Wang Ou.

Wang Ou covered Fat Da with a small blanket to make sure he didn't catch a cold. After tucking the corners of the quilt, he got up and instructed the maid next to him: "Langjun will hold a ring competition on the first day of the Lunar New Year, there are not a few days, have I ordered the people to arrange it?" ”

The maid said respectfully: "If you return to the Holy Maiden, all the arrangements have been made according to the requirements of the Holy Maiden." There are a total of twenty good players, all of whom have been explained clearly, and when the time is right, they will sell a flaw and admit defeat. Make sure you don't stand out and be selected. ”

"Are all people with clean foundations?"

"Yes, they are all good hands who have never shown their faces on the rivers and lakes."

Wang Ou nodded, waved his hand, and the maid went down and closed the door. Wang Ou blew out the candles in the house, and the whole room was darkened, only the lantern under the eaves of the porch reflected through the window emitted a faint light, bringing a hint of brightness to the whole space.

In the darkness, a small snake swam down the pillar from the beam of the house. Wang Ou immediately noticed its existence, and reached out to pop out a faint smoke, cutting it between the little snake and Fat Da.

Facing the smoke, the little snake fled back to the pillar in fear, spit out the letter, and demonstrated at Wang Ou.

Wang Ou said coldly: "I have already done what you asked, what else do you want to do?" ”

The little snake spat out a few more times, with a peculiar rhythm, as if it was being controlled. Wang Ou looked at the little snake and said, "I know." ”

The little snake swam back to the beam, and after a while, it was silent.

Wang Ou sighed, and between his eyebrows, there was a struggle!

……

It's all over the sky!

Li Mu came out of the house, in good spirits. Last night enjoyed the blessings of all people, the taste is wonderful, and when I got up this morning, the bones in my body were lighter.

Today is the most important festival before the New Year. After the New Year, it is really into the rhythm of the New Year.

Datang's small year also has a lot of rules. There are three main ones, peach charms, sacrificial stoves, and eating dumplings.

The role of the peach charm and the spring couplets of later generations is similar, but there are also differences. The Spring Festival couplets that Li Mu saw in his previous life were to write auspicious words about the battle on the paper and paste them on both sides of the gate. The peach charm is carved on a wooden board, and then the wooden board is hung on both sides of the gate.

The content is also different from the Spring Festival couplets, on the peach symbol, you can engrave the lettering, you can also depict the image. It's all the same kind of content, it's about two immortals, Shen Tu and Yu Lei. Legend has it that in ancient times, Shen Tu and Yu Lei were a pair of brothers, both brothers were good at catching ghosts, if evil ghosts came out to harass Bai Xing, Shen Tu and Yu Lei both ambushed and tied them up to feed the tiger. Later, in order to drive away the evil, people painted gods and gloom on the door, which also had the effect of driving away ghosts and avoiding evil, and it has been passed down to this day. The left door is called the gods, and the right door is called Yu Lei, and the ancient Chinese folk called them the door gods.

And in the Middle Tang Dynasty, the work of the two of them was robbed by Qin Qiong and Wei Chigong. The two took their place and became the new door gods.

But at this time in the early Tang Dynasty, Qin Qiong and Wei Chigong's mansion also hung portraits of the two.

Li Mu didn't expect that there would be no Spring Festival couplets in this era, but it doesn't matter, you can't write it yourself. If you don't write Spring Festival couplets, wouldn't the regular script of Ouyang Xun that you imitate be useless?

I couldn't find the red paper, but there was a red cloth. Li Mu asked Xiaozhu to go to Wang Ou's shop opposite and hugged two red silk horses, got a long case, cut it and laid it out, picked up the pen and polished the ink, brushed a little bit, and wrote the first Spring Festival couplets in history.

Shanglian: The days increase and the years increase the longevity of people.

Downlink: Spring is full of Qiankun Fumanyuan.

Horizontal batch: The year is safe

After it was written, Li Mu called Xiaomei and Xiaozhu and asked them to paste this Spring Festival couplet to the back door.

Xiaozhu and Xiaomei didn't know what they were doing, so they refused to go, Li Mu was a little annoyed, and shouted, "Is it up to me in this house?" I'll let you post it, and you can just post it, grind it! ”

Xiaozhu was more bold and said, "Master Hou, you can't mess around, there are peach charms to be hung on both sides of the gate, what are you doing here?" ”

"It's good to hang the peach charm on the door, I put this on the door frame. Can't read? Look at these three sentences, how festive. Invented by Ben Hou, it is called Spring Festival couplets. Starting this year, it will be posted every year after that, and this is the new rule. You don't care if others post it or not, we have the final say in my family, and we will post it! ”

"Okay......" Xiaozhu was helpless, so he had to take the Spring Festival couplets and go to paste them with Xiaomei.

Li Mu looked at the effect, very satisfied, wrote another one, ready to paste it at the gate in front of the store, just put down the pen, and heard someone next to him read: "Business is prosperous and leads to the four seas, the wealth is lush, and the wealth is auspicious...... What is this? ”

Li Mu looked at the voice and was startled: "Your Majesty? How did you get here! ”
