While the adults were talking, the little ones on the other end of the table were also connecting with each other. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info is just a lot more ridiculous and naïve in comparison.

For example, Liu Yong's fifth uncle's starling brother and sixth uncle's tenth brother were betting on who saw the "long worm" longer, but neither of them could convince each other, so they started the "don't have a wrist" game, from two wins in three games to three wins in five games, and later it became five wins in seven games...... And the bet is a box of cold yuanzi.

For another example, the two Liu Yong can't say which uncle's little girl is eating more than anyone with an open belly. Liu Yong looked at the two little teases speechlessly, and the lady who sold cooking cakes outside the West Gate at least 200 catties came to mind, and silently blessed the two little sisters in her heart - at least, if you eat so fat, no one dares to bully easily.

And Liu Yong has been talking nonsense with the seventh sister, and the audience also has a little brother with a single name and a Xun character.

"Brother Jiu'er, you said that Liu Yongci is so powerful, why doesn't the official family let him become a jinshi?"

The seventh sister listened to Liu Yong's story about Liu Yong, and said that Liu Yong participated in the imperial examination again in the early years of Renzong, and was already on the list, but when he was deposed by Emperor Renzong, her eyes flashed with tears and she couldn't help asking.

Liu Yong secretly rolled his eyes, thinking that this is what the story in the tile says, how do I know the reason? However, he rolled his eyes, paused slightly, and continued.

"Maybe the official thinks that Liu Yongci is too good, if he is admitted to the Jinshi and becomes an official, he will have to spend a lot of time on official business, and he will have no time to fill in the words. There will be a lot of quatrains in this world, so I told Liu Yong, 'Let's go and sing in a low voice, why do you want to be famous'...... Also, don't call me Brother Jiu'er, it always reminds me of Qu Yuan's old man who didn't know from which pimple corner he found a character like a drawing symbol, and he didn't know the ghost, let alone write it! My name is Liu Yong, and I will be called Brother Yong in the future, understand? ”

"Brother Yong... Liu Yong... Liu yong? ”

Brother Xun muttered for a while, opened his eyes and suddenly asked, "That Liu Yong can't be you, right, you made up the stories?" ”

"How is that possible? These are all taught by the gentleman. Haven't read the book... Are you literate? I'm still literate, I've been able to read since I was literate? What a crooked truth... Call me Brother Yong, remember? ”

Liu Yong glared back and said with a serious look.

"Remember, nine... Brother Yong. ”

Halfway down the sun, Liu Yong was found by his father through a gate in a canal near the field, and when he was found, he was fishing for snails in the canal with several brothers of about the same age, holding in his hand a porcelain bottle for vinegar filling that was used to fill vinegar in his hand, which was used to hold half an afternoon's results—three "small fish" more than an inch long, more than 20 fry that were not much thicker than a hair, and a half jar of snails that looked dirty.

Climbing ashore from the canal, the neatly ironed shirt was covered with mud after only half a day's work, and the wide sleeves were rolled up high and fastened under the armpit with a belt. The ankle-length robe was lifted from one side and tucked into the waist, and the newly purchased cloth shoes were found in a haystack after a long search.

After being reprimanded by his father, Liu Yong followed him back to the courtyard of the old mansion.

When I got into the carriage, in addition to Liu Yong and his mother Mu, there was another person in the carriage, a boy named Liu Xun. He is the youngest son of Liu Yong's third uncle, a few years younger than Liu Yong.

There was a smell of water in the carriage, and the originally spacious carriage was a little crowded because of the extra person and the uncomfortable fishy smell. After returning to Kaifeng City, the sky has just been dark, and Kaifeng, which has been hot for a day, is much cooler, and most of the people in Kaifeng City have walked out of their homes and walked in the streets and alleys to enjoy the coolness.

Liu Yong, who had been crazy for a day, wanted to fall asleep as soon as he returned home, but he was dragged up by Mu again, reluctantly got up from the bed, and ran out of the alley with a few copper coins given by his mother. After a while, Liu Yong returned, followed by a wheelbarrow pushed by a strong man, with a large bucket large enough for a pig, filled with hot water.

"Two hundred catties of hot water, the old rule, the bucket will be collected tomorrow morning."

The strong man and Liu Qingzhi worked together to unload the hot water bucket next to the cubicle next to the kitchen room, wiped the sweat with his sleeve and said.

"I know, I know, it's hard work - go slowly!"

After a while, a wooden bucket for bathing was set up in the cubicle outside the kitchen that was used as a bathhouse, and after mixing it with warm water, Liu Yong was stripped naked and thrown in.

The bath bucket is not an ordinary wooden barrel, but a special one made by the Cao family bath bucket shop outside the East Water Gate. There are many scales on the inside of the barrel, and each height represents a different amount of water. There is a drainage hole under the barrel, which is plugged with a plug made of wood wrapped in cloth when bathing, and when the water needs to be released, the water will flow out of the drainage hole, and flow down the drainage ditch with a cover plate specially dug in the bathing room, and the drainage ditch next to the kitchen and the well will meet under the cover plate and drain into the drainage ditch outside the yard.

After washing the mud stains all over his body, Liu Yong changed into a clean caftan brown, and suddenly felt refreshed and sleepy. He moved a small Maza, sat in front of the main hall, and watched his father drain and clean the bathtub, and then fill it with hot water, in a daze. He was not happy, because just now his father told him that in the next few days from today, Brother Xun would have to sleep with him in a bed.

Liu Yong's sleeping position is not very good. A five-foot-wide bed could barely fit him. Sure enough, when Mu pushed open the door the next day and asked the two children to get up, he saw Liu Yong lying in the middle of the bed with the word "big", his legs still up. The quilt was completely kicked to the ground, and Liu Xun was half of his body pitifully suspended in the air, showing signs of following in the footsteps of the quilt at any time.

As a last resort, Liu Qingzhi and his wife had to pick out a small bed that had been abandoned for a long time from the storage pile, and after spending a lot of effort cleaning it, they moved to Liu Yong's room and laid out a mattress. For the next few days, Liu Xun slept in this bed.

An autumn rain and a cold. After the beginning of autumn, there were a few rains, but the time was not long, but the weather in the morning and evening was obviously not as hot and humid as the previous days, and it was slightly cool.

Liu Qingzhi did not completely quit his job in the accounting office, and returned to the Wang family's shop after processing all the goods, but because the Wang Dongjia was still in Xijing and did not come back, most of the business also fell, and Liu Qingzhi was very idle every day.

Two days later, it was Tanabata, and there were obviously more people on the street. The young unmarried girls also have permission from their families for these two days, and they no longer want to be female celebrities at home all day, and they come on vacation, and they are in groups of three or five to buy some holiday gadgets in the market.

For example, in front of the Pan Building, there is a special "Qiqiao Market" that specializes in buying and selling Qixi begging things, from the beginning of July is the car and horse are disgusted, and at this time, the car and horse can not pass, and the pedestrians are shoulder to shoulder, and will not disperse until late at night.

Mu bought a lot of lotus bones, attached them to make a few "double-headed lotus" for the children to play with, and the others were inserted in a vase with clear water and placed on the table in the main hall.

In the days when he was not yet off, Liu Yong still had to go to school on Tongyu Street every day. And Liu Xun stayed at home during the day, and after eating at night, Liu Yong took the generation in the south of the city to play, but the time was not long, and the Mu family only approved it for an hour.

Mr. Meng's attention to Liu Yong was obviously relaxed, but Liu Yong still did not dare to relax, and asked for money from his mother to buy two stickers and a thick stack of practice paper, and practiced a few sheets "diligently" every day, but he did not see the slightest effect in a short time.
