After a double reed, the couplet became popular. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The calligraphy and painting stalls that can be seen everywhere in Jialing City have also changed their work, and they have begun to write couplets, and festive red couplets can be seen everywhere in every household. It seems that overnight, the cold wind blew the entire Jialing City.

But no matter what, the most sought after is the mysterious man in black on Linhua Road.

His couplets were sold only ten a day, but they were in short supply, and the housekeepers of the big families even kept watch overnight, for fear that they would have to wait the next day if they were too late.

Every day, as soon as the man in black arrived, he swarmed around him, not looking at the silver that had thrown off the white flowers, just to buy a few couplets that the owner highly respected.

Ten couplets were sold out in just a few breaths, and the man who grabbed them carefully held them in his arms, drove down to the carriage with a smile, and praised the excellence of the couplets without any obliquity, and later sighed that the night was not in vain. Those empty-handed people couldn't help but frown, seeing that there were only a few days left in the new year, if they couldn't buy it back, how should they explain?

The man in black put away the money and turned away, but no one dared to step forward and follow him, because they all knew that even the most clever little guy would lose it halfway.

In desperation, he could only sigh and tell his entourage to go back and get some thick clothes, waiting for the man in black to come again tomorrow.

"Childe, this is five hundred taels."

In a tea shop a few blocks away, Qu Lang handed Liu Xi the money he had received from selling couplets.

Seeing the silver, Wu Shuang'er laughed happily, dropped the cake he was eating, grabbed the purse, took out a few ingots of silver, and smiled even more happily.

I wonder when the little girl liked silver so much?

This can't be done, she can't be made a money fan, otherwise the little girl will not be mercenary in the future, she will become greedy for wealth and wealth, how can she be good if she can't get married?

Just when Liu Xi was thinking about it secretly, Wu Shuang'er had already stuffed the silver into his arms, and his chest, which was as sharp as a small lotus, suddenly bulged a piece, and the horse embroidery squeezed his eyes towards Liu Xi, and said with a smile, "I didn't expect that the little girl has become an adult." ”

As soon as these words came out, Wu Shuang'er was still a little wooden, and when he saw Qin Yi and Tian Xun'er with blushing faces, he came to his senses. A touch of red came out of his little face, his hands were wrapped around his arms in front of his chest, and he glared at him with big eyes, "What a swinger, turn around and ask Lord Shurou to see if she likes a scoundrel like you." ”

Hearing this, Ma Xiu still laughed, secretly scolded him for moving a stone and hitting his own foot, smiled with a smile, apologized again and again, and said that flattering words, it seemed that he was really afraid that the little girl would run in front of Li Ming and pass on his unobstructed words.

Looking at this laughing scene, Liu Xi put down the cup in his hand, looked up at the window, the day has reached the top of the three poles, the day after tomorrow is the beginning of the year, although a lot of New Year's goods have been purchased in the past few days, but there are still some items that have not been bought, at least to buy some new lines for everyone. Now Liu Xi has a lot of money on hand, and the couplets have made him earn thousands of taels in the past few days, not to mention the red-background rice paper sold by the disciples of the Ma Xiu family, and he has also gained a lot.

Since there is no shortage of silver, Liu Xi is not a person who regards wealth as his life, and divides the silver to embroider them with horses, which seems a little cheesy, and the other party refuses to accept it anyway, so he wants to buy the best clothes and jewelry for Ma Xiu and others, what silk satin, mink fur, jewels and jade hairpins, rouge painting powder, as long as you can see it, you can buy them all, and have a festive farewell to the old and welcome the new.

When Liu Xi said what he was thinking, the expressions of the people around him were different, Qin still hurriedly excused himself, and looked at Qu Lang, who was also shaking his head; Tian Xun'er smiled softly, looking at Liu Xi, her beautiful eyes lingering; Xiao Wu happily stuffed the candied fruit in his hand into his mouth, smiled and nodded; Dawu was still silent, but his eyes looked out the window at the bustling scene; Wu Shuang'er took out the purse that had not yet been warmed from his arms with a bitter face.

"That's it, Yusheng has made a lot of money these days, and he should wait for me to spend some money, but I still can't understand why I also write couplets, and no one cares about one or two lines of silver!"

Laughing, Ma Xiu became depressed again, he couldn't bear the loneliness and wrote a few couplets, originally thought that Liu Xi's one hundred taels was still priceless, and he should be at least thirty taels, but after a few days, even a tael of silver was not sold, which really hit him.

Seeing that Ma Xiu was about to be depressed again, Liu Xi took the purse handed by Wu Shuang'er and said with a smile, "I have never seen this word in the world, so it was sought after for a while, and when this wave subsides in the future, someone will find something unusual about today, so don't sigh here." ”

As he spoke, Liu Xi flipped the purse in his hand and glanced around at everyone, "Go with me today, take whatever you like, now, Liu Xi is also a rich man, so you have to spend a good time." ”

Everyone was stunned for a while, and when they were about to get up and go out together, they saw a few people walking into the tea shop, the leader was a chubby young man, wearing a vermilion jacket and a velvet felt hat, followed by two sturdy young men, who were grabbing a thin young man.

The thin boy's robe was full of patches, not even as good as the old jackets on the two little guys, the skin on his face was rough because of the cold, and the corners of his mouth were faintly bloody.

That seems to be a couplet.

"Dad, Zhang Xiaoquan actually has the money to buy couplets, now you should know where the money was lost in the past, right?"

The chubby young man in the vermilion jacket roared at the top of his voice, and after a while, the shopkeeper of the tea shop walked out from behind the curtain, "Lin Mu, what's the matter, shouldn't you be studying in the academy?" ”

Hearing this, the chubby young man was a little nervous, but later he pointed to the thin young man and said, "Dad, I found that Zhang Xiaoquan bought several couplets, but you know, the cheapest couplet now costs a few pennies, where did he get the money?" A while ago, the tea shop didn't lose the money, so the child arrested him. ”

The shopkeeper of the tea shop took out the hand that was forked in the sleeve of the green jacket, walked out of the wooden dark yellow counter, stared at the thin young man with small eyes, and after a while, raised the fat right hand with an agate ring and slapped him heavily.

"Smack!"

The crisp sound was especially loud in this small tea shop, and the thin young man's body shook a few times, almost falling because of it, the blood at the corners of his mouth became more and more red, and he raised his head and stared at his bloodshot eyes.

"You are a rebel, how did the old man teach you, you actually did things like stealing chickens and touching dogs, see if I don't break your legs today!"

After that, the shopkeeper of the tea shop picked up the broom on the side and knocked it the leg of the thin young man, who gritted his teeth and held the couplet, but he didn't say anything, while the chubby young man in the vermilion jacket showed contempt on his face, leaned on the edge of the counter, and played with the jade plate hanging on the belt.

"Childe ......"

Wu Shuang'er pulled Liu Xi's sleeve, and the big eyes of the ripples of the autumn water were full of unbearable color.

Liu Xi didn't want to take care of such family affairs, but seeing that the thin young man's indifferent face was full of stubbornness, he couldn't help but stop the steps he stepped out, and Ma Xiu also stopped, the smile on the corner of his mouth gradually faded, and the folding fan shaking in his hand closed unconsciously.

"Husband, be merciful to your subordinates, Quan'er is young and ignorant, so you can spare him!"

A woman who was also thin, dressed in a white linen dress with starched shampoo, rushed out and stood in front of the thin young man, pleading bitterly. When she appeared, the broom that the shopkeeper had raised stopped, and there was a look of struggle in his eyes, and after a while, he sighed, and was about to drop the broom, when he heard the voice of another woman.

"What can you call the word husband?"

As she spoke, a woman with a bloated complexion and a dark complexion wrapped in a bright red velvet jacket walked out, snorted coldly, the horizontal flesh on her face trembled, and the inferior gouache fell off a layer and fell to the ground like a white mist of rice flour.

"Mother, Zhang Xiaoquan stole the silver in the store."

The chubby young man said happily, as if he had done something amazing, and he glanced at the thin mother and son gloatingly, and continued to play with the jade plate on his waist with a sneer.

"Okay, I said why I have to throw some silver every few days, two days ago, my gold bracelet was gone, it must have been stolen by you little rabbit!"

The fat woman in the red jacket stepped forward angrily, snatched the shopkeeper's finger broom, and struck the thin woman with a snap, who could not bear such pain, and immediately fell to her knees, but still begging for mercy.

"Don't hurt my mother!"

The thin young man who had not spoken suddenly stepped forward and pushed the fat woman in the red jacket, who fell to the ground with a scream, this is terrible, the fat woman in the red jacket actually played a trick, spread on the ground and did not want to get up, and even scolded the shopkeeper and others around to take down the thin young man and report to the official.

"Koizumi, don't kneel down and kowtow to Madame yet."

Seeing this, the woman in the sackcloth skirt hurriedly pulled the thin young man and asked him to kneel down and plead guilty, but the young man stood still, forcibly helped the woman in the sackcloth skirt up, and stared coldly at the chubby young man and the family who surrounded him, "Enough, mother, what have they done to you all these years?" You are Zhang Yu's wife, but you have become their subordinate, and you are yelled and scolded by them all day long, I Zhang Xiaoquan have had enough of such days. Today, I'm going to take you away and cut them off from now on! ”

It seemed that he didn't expect the young man to become so resolute, and for a while, the tea shop was so quiet that it was panicking, and the shopkeeper opened his mouth, but swallowed the words again. It's just that the fat woman in the red jacket jumped up from the ground and rushed towards the young man, "You, you have eaten the old lady all these years, and stole the old lady's silver, and now you want to leave?" There are no doors! I'll take you to the official and let you live happily in prison!" ”

Between the pulls, only a crisp sound of clanging was heard, and a silver bracelet fell.

The fat woman in the red jacket quickly picked up the bracelet, and the young man wanted to snatch it back, but was caught by the two little guys, and could only stare at her viciously, "Give it to me!" ”

"And you said you didn't steal the money? How can you have the money to buy this couplet without stealing silver! ”

The fat woman in the red jacket stepped on the couplet sprinkled on the ground, and then raised the silver bracelet in her hand, her blood-red mouth cracked into a shocking smile, and a mouthful of yellow teeth also jumped out, "If you didn't steal the silver, how could you have this silver bracelet?" Shouldn't I take the old lady's gold bracelet as a pawn, buy this Ansheng that can be hidden! Now the evidence is conclusive, see what else you have to quibble, the old lady will let you go to prison! ”

Hearing her words, the woman in the burlap skirt knelt down again and again, kowtowing again and again and begging for mercy. The young man's face flushed, his fists clenched and gurgling, "Don't spray people with blood, this money is earned by selling couplet red rice paper, it is all clear and clean silver money, how could I, Zhang Xiaoquan, do that dirty thing, where did your family's silver go, ask your eldest son Zhang, he has been living comfortably in 'Yuexianglou' recently!" ”

Hearing this, a flash of brightness flashed in Liu Xi's eyes, this situation is nothing more than a wicked woman who is jealous of the virtuous, and it belongs to someone else's housework, even if he admires the arrogance of the thin young man, it is inconvenient for him to make a move. But now, he has a plan to recruit the boy as his command, just because the boy has a keen insight into business opportunities.

Walking in the world, even if you have the ability to do things, you also need to adapt to the worldly way of doing things, without silver, it is difficult to move an inch.

Liu Xi needs silver, and the world is light on business, and business is the end. For thousands of years, there are even descendants of businessmen who are not allowed to talk about it, so he needs someone to do business, and the young man in front of him should be a good choice.

Thinking of this, he strode forward, and he couldn't hold Xiao Wu from following closely, and threw aside the two little guys who were holding the young man, and smiled and hugged his arms, looking at everyone, and when he saw the trembling appearance of the fat woman in the red jacket, Xiao Wu shrugged his shoulders, "Don't look at me, my son-in-law is there." ”

Ignoring the frightened gaze of the fat woman in the red jacket, Liu Xi stepped forward and said to the thin young man, "You want to leave here?" ”

The boy was stunned for a moment and nodded.

"Do you like business?"

After another moment's pause, the boy nodded again.

"Okay, come with me, I'll make your dreams come true."

When the words fell, I saw a piece of silver thrown on the counter, "This is ten taels of silver, no matter who he was before, he will have nothing to do with you in the future!" ”
