Liu Taigong's real name has been no longer used when he left Jinan Mansion when he was eighteen years old, and the name Taigong was given by friends in the rivers and lakes. Last year, when he was walking darts in Yungui, he contracted the wind cold and lay down for three months, after all, he was in his forties, and he had slept in the open for half his life, and his body and bones could not stand it. As soon as people are old, they are homesick, he rode a donkey, carried a sword, walked for half a year, and finally arrived in Shandong.

It was late, go into the city to rest and rest, Xuzhou Mansion is the first big city in Lunan, teahouses, wine shops, tobacco houses, brothels are lined up on both sides of the avenue, Liu Taigong walked to a restaurant, got off the donkey with his legs, and walked in with a blanket and a sword. The door of the restaurant is not big, there are more than a dozen greasy tables, a spicy smell of frying and frying, and several big men sit in it and shout five and six to drink, looking like a practicing family. Mrs. Liu didn't want to do much, so she found a seat by the door and sat down, ordered a pot of wine, a plate of fried tofu, and took two steamed buns from the bag that had been put for three days, and ate them with taste. The shopkeeper asked him if he wanted to stay in the store, and he said no, just go back and find a City God Temple to rest.

Li Wu is the second young master of the Li family, he has practiced martial arts since he was a child, in the twenty-fourth year of Guangxu, his father spent five hundred taels of silver to donate a martial arts fame to him, he and the head of the three classes and six rooms of Xuzhou Mansion, the pipe belt of the patrol battalion have a relationship, and the city practices Baguazhang, Xingyi boxing, and they get together to drink and brag about nothing. Today, there is a martial arts player from other places, it is said that Chaquan has a good game, Li Wu invited a few friends to pick him up, and by the way, he learned two tricks.

The man's surname was Ma, he was in his thirties, and he had tendons and flesh all over his body, and he could fight by looking at it, but Li Wu didn't take him seriously. In the past few years, Li Wu has searched for famous teachers, and he has never served anyone with the things on his fists and feet, guns and sticks. He said to the man surnamed Ma, "If you win against me, you will give me a hundred eagles." The surname Ma was not ambiguous, and he accepted the offer without even saying a word of resignation.

The master made a move, but in fact, it didn't take long, and within ten moves, Li Wu clicked three times on the chest of the guest surnamed Ma. The surnamed Ma was so ashamed that his face was red, and he clenched his fists and admitted defeat. Li Wu laughed and said that you are tired of traveling, I can't win the martial arts, let's go to the shower after drinking, stay at my house at night, and practice again after resting enough.

The surname Ma was convinced, and everyone sat down and continued to drink. Li Wu was in a good mood, drank a few more glasses, and when he went to the thatched house outside the door, he passed by Mrs. Liu's table, and at a glance he caught a glimpse of the long sword with a green shark skin sheath.

"Friend, this sword is yours?" Li Wu burped and reached out to touch the hilt of the sword wrapped in the leather strip. Mrs. Liu didn't turn his head, holding the wine glass in his left hand, holding the hilt of the sword in his right hand, Li Wu's hand was not slow, he grabbed the scabbard and pulled it back, the sword was out of the sheath, and a cold cold air came to his face, this sword must have seen blood, Li Wu's wine strength woke up five points on the spot, and praised: "Good sword!" Mrs. Liu glanced at him and said a good sword. Li Wu asked, do you want to sell it? Mrs. Liu shook his head and didn't sell it. Li Wu looked at him, then at the sword, and went to the counter to ask the man to add a plate of braised beef to the guests at the door.

After Mrs. Liu finished eating, she went to Li Wu's side to thank her, and Li Wu said, my name is Li Wu, and if you have anything to do in Xuzhou Mansion, just report my name.

This is the first time Liu Taigong and Li Wu met, the second time they met was already three months later, Liu Taigong came to Xuzhou Mansion again from his hometown in Jinan, this time he was not alone, but brought a young woman, it was raining heavily that day, the road was muddy and difficult to walk, Liu Taigong wore a hat and led a donkey into the city to avoid the rain, and met Li Wu in this restaurant, one was born, two times ripe, this time Li Wu invited him to sit together, and talked about it, only to know that Liu Taigong had walked the dart on the southwest road, and fought the French devil in Zhennanguan, Li Wu and others were in awe, Asked Mrs. Liu to spend a few more days in Xuzhou Mansion, Mrs. Liu was afraid that the woman would suffer, so he said that it was better to be respectful than to obey his fate.

The woman's surname is Qi, a native of Yiyang, Hunan, with her father in Jinan Mansion to do business, her father died of illness, and the orphan girl sold herself to bury her father, but she did not want to be a slave to be small, only as a house, no one wanted to marry a foreigner with no roots, she knelt on the street in front of the house for three days and no one cared about it, it happened that Mrs. Liu passed by from here, admired her ambition and filial piety, put down five taels of silver and left, did not think that this woman would follow all the way, and had to marry Mrs. Liu.

Mrs. Liu is the son of a big family in Jinan, because he was bullied, he ran away from home at the age of eighteen, and returned to his hometown in his forties.

Since then, Mrs. Liu has settled in Xuzhou Mansion, all day long with Li Wu to drink and play cards, talk about literature and martial arts, Li Jiazu has been a term of Taiwan, the family is big, enough for children and grandchildren to spoil, Li Wu likes to meet friends with martial arts, no matter whether he wins or loses, he invites people to take a bath and drink, and then sends a hundred and ten pieces of coils, known as Xuzhou Mansion Xiao Meng, but he has a regret, that is, he has never dealt with Mrs. Liu.

Mrs. Liu was reluctant to do anything with people, firstly, he knew that his body was not as good as it was back then, and secondly, his fists and feet were eyeless, and it was not good to hurt anyone, but this time he really couldn't refuse, because Li Wu said, let's compete in martial arts, if you can win against me, build a house for you, Mrs. Liu said that this is unfair, I have no long things, nothing to bet on, Li Wu said Don't you have a sword.

This was originally a joke, but the news got out, and it was taken seriously. During the competition, all the Lian family members from the four towns and eight counties came, the Li family's mansion was crowded, Li Wu was short with arrow sleeves, and first hit all the way Taizu Long Fist to move his muscles and bones, winning the applause of the audience, Liu Taigong did not change his clothes, or the gray cloth coat, and he put the hem into his waist and went down.

The rules of the competition are two wins in three games, the first game of Wenbi, to see who can lift the stone lion of the town house at the gate of the Li Mansion, Li Wu raised it first, he tightened the belt around his waist, sank into the dantian, hugged the stone lion and roared: "Get up!" The thousand-pound stone lion trembled slightly off the ground, and when Liu Taigong saw the moss under the stone lion and the tide insects crawling all over the ground, he knew how strong Li Wu was, and he chose to give up.

In the first game, Liu Taigong admitted to lose, and the second game was more than his fists and feet, as the saying goes, boxing is afraid of being less strong, Li Wu is the age of blood and energy, boxing with the wind, and he didn't leave his hands at all, but Liu Taigong was spinning around like a loach, and he couldn't get close to him at all, and the spectators were noisy for a while, thinking that Liu Taigong couldn't do his job, in fact, it wasn't that Liu Taigong didn't do his best, but that he didn't understand Li Wu's path and didn't dare to touch hard.

After making Li Wu impetuous, Liu Taigong made a move, and the two fought back and forth with their fists and feet, and after dozens of rounds, Li Wu twisted his body and came out of the game, saying: "I lost." Looking at him again, he was kicked by Mrs. Liu like a sika deer, and his whole body was full of footprints. When Mrs. Liu hugged his fists and said that he would concede, his throat and eyes were fishy and sweet, and he was hit by Li Wu's two punches, and his chest ached faintly.

The third game is a stick, there is no suspense for Liu Taigong to win this game, he has practiced the big gun for more than ten years, that is the king of the soldiers who are three feet long, this four-foot-long eyebrow stick is simply a child's thing, and Li Wu was poked to the ground with only one stab.

Li Wu was convinced, saying that there is a vacant land in the west of my house, just to give you a house, and it will be better to ask for advice sooner or later in the future, Mrs. Liu said that it is better to play, don't take it seriously, Li Wu said that it is difficult to chase after a horse, and said that if you build a house, then you have to build a house.

Mrs. Liu returned to the lower part and said to Liu Qi's family: "Now we also have a home. ”

It took two years for this house to be built, not because Li Wu was in charge, but because the Li family was sitting on empty mountains and the money was getting tighter and tighter, if it weren't for the fact that Li Mansion was repairing the yard at home, Li Wu deducted a lot of bricks and stones from it to build a house for Mrs. Liu, and I am afraid that this house would not be able to be built in another two years. The house is located on the west side of Li Mansion, surrounded by water on three sides, the north is a river, the west and south are a pond, there is a row of willow trees planted by the pond, there are ten rooms upstairs and downstairs in the north house, there are five rooms in the southeast and west, the square yard, blue bricks and gray tiles, it is not good in Xuzhou Mansion, and it is definitely not bad.

Later, when Li Wu celebrated his thirtieth birthday, Liu Taigong took the Longquan sword with a green shark skin sheath as a birthday gift, Li Wu was ecstatic, and reciprocated Li to help Liu Taigong find an envoy, and in the history of the Xuzhou Mansion, the two became friends.

The official position of the classic history is not big, the steward is not small, Liu Taigong has walked the rivers and lakes for many years, not to mention the exquisiteness of all sides, but also left and right, Liu Qi's family is a good family, virtuous and generous, and slowly maintains this family, but the two have no heirs, and they have not kept a few of them pregnant one after another.

At the beginning of the spring of the first year of Xuantong, Liu Qi's family was pregnant with a child, and he recuperated at home every day to protect the fetus, Liu Taigong went to the yamen to order Mao as usual, and when he came out of the house, he walked a mile on the frozen dirt road, and came to the door of the government to eat an egg steamed bun, went in to light it first, and then went to the prison temple to burn incense, and finally came to his own history office to sit down, brewed a pot of tea to pass the time, suddenly heard the noise in the front yard, went out to see, only to see a few guys in the fast shift lock a red-faced man in, full of blood and hideous faces, asked, Said that it was a chicken thief, and he would punch and kick twice, and it took a lot of effort to take him, and he also injured a few brothers, Liu Taigong said that he was waiting for a good life, turned around and went back to the Dianshi Office, and after a while, he felt that something was wrong, and came to the prison room to interrogate the chicken thief, and asked him what his name was, where he was from, and what kind of boxing he practiced. The man said that my name is Chen San, a local, and I practice Dahong boxing. Taigong asked who your master was, Chen San said that it was so-and-so, and Taigong said that it was still the apprentice of the old man, how did you get into this step? Chen San said that I was also confused for a while, my daughter-in-law was about to give birth, and there was no overnight food at home, so I did something stupid. Mrs. Liu said that you steal chickens is a small matter, and if you beat an official, you will have to be locked up for three years and five years. Chen San wept silently and stopped talking.

When Mrs. Liu went home for dinner at noon, he told Liu Qishi about this, and Liu Qishi said that this person was too pitiful, if he went to prison, what would happen to his daughter-in-law and unborn child, why don't we help him, saving people's lives is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter. Mrs. Liu said that the woman Taoist family knows something, this person injured the official, and the movement was too big, and it was difficult for me to open this mouth when I first arrived. Liu Qishi said that he just did it with all his heart, God was watching from the sky, it was his life if he couldn't help it, and it was his creation if he could help it.

Mrs. Liu took it to heart, took a lot of pains to make a point, and asked the master to make an article on the card, and finally exempted Chen San from his prison sentence and only played 20 boards.

The next day, Chen San took his daughter-in-law to thank him, saying that he was willing to be a cow and a horse for Mrs. Liu, but Mrs. Liu was still hesitating, and Liu Qi, who also had a big belly, said that there was an empty house at home, and you should live.

Chen San and his wife have lived in Mrs. Liu's mansion since then, and they have not set up a paperwork, but they are all doing the work of subordinates, and adding a strong labor force to the family has saved a lot of worry. Within a month, Chen San's daughter-in-law Dafeng gave birth to a son, seven catties and six taels, and the two asked Mrs. Liu to give her a name.

Maybe it's the naïve eyes, it's the autumn of this year, Liu Qi also gave birth to a son to Mrs. Liu, five catties and four taels, this year Mrs. Liu is fifty years old, old and has a son, a great joy in life, he set up a flowing water mat for three days, and gave the child a long-lived golden lock to hang around his neck.
