Seeing that she had been discovered, Daiyu hurriedly returned to her original position and said with a smile: "Old lady, the fourth sister wants to listen to Brother Cong's story, and I want to find him when to come over." ”

Xichun rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "Old lady, the story told by the third brother is very good, I don't believe you can ask the second brother Bao." ”

Mother Jia looked puzzled, this Brother Cong still tells stories? Seeing that the two sisters didn't seem to be fake, they turned their heads to look at Baoyu.

Seeing this, Baoyu hurriedly replied: "Old lady, what the fourth sister said is true, and I have also heard the story of the third brother Cong, which is indeed very good." ”

When my mother heard this, she smiled and said, "Isn't this easy to do, Mandarin Duck went to call Brother Cong in, and asked him to tell all of us about it, so that the old woman can also listen to it, and be happy." ”

"Knowing the old lady, I'll go and call the third master in."

The mandarin duck agreed, got up and walked out, came outside, and saw Jia Yu, Jia Zheng and others were there, but Jia Cong was missing, and thought: 'Where did this kid run again, how long has it been since he came out.' ’

came to Jia Lian's side and asked, "Second Master Lian, where did Third Master Cong go?" The old lady told him to go inside. ”

Jia Lian was stunned, and he didn't know if the old lady was looking for Jia Cong, was it a good thing or a bad thing? Brother Cong is so smart, he should be fine.

"Brother Cong, go back to his yard, I guess I'll come back later, or I'll have someone call him over?"

The mandarin duck didn't expect the kid to go home, so he shook his head and said, "No need for the second master, I'll go find him myself." ”

With that, the mandarin duck turned around and walked out.

······

It is said that Jia Cong left Jia's mother's room, came to the hall outside, and saw that the banquet could not start for a while, so he quietly said to Jia Lian and ran home.

Since you live here, the god of the stove must be worshipped.

When I returned home, I saw that everything was clean and neat, and I was in a good mood.

"The third master is back, Miss Ping is ready, and when the third master comes back, she will start sacrificing to the god of the stove."

Zhang Fu saw Jia Cong coming back and hurriedly greeted him.

"Well, I know, today Xiaonian, let everyone have a good meal, I will go back later, you are responsible for greeting this front yard."

"Don't worry, Miss Ping, it's all arranged, and when the third master finishes worshipping the god of the stove, we will have a banquet here."

Jia Cong nodded and returned to the backyard.

Ping'er saw that Jia Cong was back, and said with a smile: "The third master came back just in time, let's go to the god of the stove first, it's all arranged." ”

Jia Cong said: "Sister Ping'er has worked hard, let's go over." ”

The group came to the large kitchen, where the incense table had been prepared and all the offerings were complete.

Jia Cong stepped forward to offer incense, toasted tea, toasted, read out the text, thanked him for a year's protection, asked for forgiveness for his unintentional mistakes, and begged for the next year's wealth.

Then put Shuwen into the incense burner and light it, and then burn the paper money.

After three incense sticks, Jia Cong respectfully kowtowed three times, thanking the god of the stove for his protection, hoping to continue to bless himself in the coming year, prosperous financial luck, and prosperous martial arts.

After praying, Jia Cong stood up, and the ceremony of sacrificing to the god of the stove ended.

When I returned to the backyard, I saw the mandarin duck sitting in the lobby waiting for me.

"Third master, your legs are too fast, your front foot comes out, and I can't find anyone when I come out with my back foot, as soon as I ask Second Master Lian, I know that you ran home, what's the matter? Miss your little lover after not seeing her for a while? ”

After speaking, he inadvertently glanced at Ping'er, with a provocative face.

Ping'er was not annoyed, since she followed Jia Cong, she was his person sooner or later, and she stepped forward with a smile and pulled the mandarin duck.

"What does the third master want me to do? It's not like some people chased after me, what? Missing a man? Why don't you stay tonight and send you to the third master's house, so that you can spend candles in the cave room? I remember that the third master said that he wanted to snatch you back as the lady of the village, and it would be more convenient for you to send it to the door yourself today. ”

The mandarin duck's face turned red when he heard this, and he scolded with a smile: "Phew, you little hoof, after following the third master, your mouth is getting more and more powerful, and you are becoming more and more unforgiving." ”

Jia Cong stretched out his thumb at Ping'er and said with a smile: "Sister Ping'er's idea is good, then we will have a banquet now, and when Sister Mandarin Duck gets drunk, carry me to the house, and spend candles in the cave room tonight." ”

"Phew, you husband and mother, your mouth is getting worse and worse, you two bullied me one, third master, you are not a good person."

Jia Cong said with a smile: "Sister Mandarin Duck, good people have no good reward, good people don't have daughters-in-law, I don't want to be a good person, just be a bad person, if I like you, I will carry you home, how can others love you." ”

"Hey, listen, this is going to rob the people's daughter, I said Ping'er, you don't care about your master, now you are still so young, just eat the bowl and look at the pot, and when you grow up, you will have it."

Ping'er said with a smile: "The third master's house is very big, come and live in a few more, don't worry, there is your place." ”

These two are the most powerful girls in the house, they are of the same age, and they have a good relationship, and they have no scruples when they laugh.

A few people laughed and laughed, and the dishes were all laid out, and since today was a small year, the dishes were even more sumptuous.

"Third master, the banquet is ready, it's time to sit down."

The mandarin duck said: "Third master, you really set up a banquet, don't you go to the mansion over there?" The old lady is still waiting for you to tell a story? ”

Jia Cong knew in his heart that the mandarin duck was coming, it must be summoned by the old lady, could it be that the old lady also likes to listen to children's stories?

"Sister Mandarin Duck, it's better to come early than to come at a good time, let's sit down and have a drink together, and we'll go to see the old lady after drinking."

The mandarin duck hesitated: "Third master, let's hurry over, it's been a long time since I came out, don't let the old lady wait." ”

Jia Cong smiled: "Don't worry, drink a glass of wine, it won't take much time." ”

Ping'er pulled the mandarin ducks to sit down together, Jia Cong picked up the wine glass, glanced at everyone, and said: "Today is the New Year, I should have celebrated well, but I still have to go to the mansion over there for a banquet, I will accompany you to have a drink, you can eat, drink and have fun by yourself." ”

After having a drink with everyone and eating a few bites of food, he returned to Rongguo Mansion with Mandarin Ducks.

"Third master, your food standard is not worse than the old lady's, you can really enjoy it."

The mandarin duck looked at the table just now, and was also a little surprised, it was too extravagant.

Jia Cong thought for a while and said: "Sister Mandarin Duck, I now use all the old people in Laifu, and I haven't deliberately instructed me to eat food, I will eat whatever they do, these are probably the same as the previous rules." ”

"Third master, aren't you afraid of being poor in this way of eating? Ping'er, this girl is your housekeeper, don't you care? ”

Regarding this point, Jia Cong is really not afraid, the money earned from soap alone is already inexhaustible, and when the soap completely opens up the market, and then the soap is released, the profit will be greater.

Besides, he is also going to set up a caravan and do some business with the grassland people, and there will be no shortage of money.

"Sister Mandarin Duck, don't worry, our family can't eat poorly, the third master, I can be regarded as a good way to make money, and when you pass the door, you will only be richer than now."

"Phew, third master, your skin is getting thicker and thicker now, and your mouth is getting more and more slippery."

Jia Cong laughed and said: "Sage Yun: 'Eat enough with thick skin, but you can't eat with thin skin.'" ’”

The mandarin duck covered his mouth and smiled: "Third master, this must be said by the saint of your family, but I have never heard of it." ”
