"Child Liu Yu, I wish my father a year and a year, and a long life!" Liu Yu was dressed in a silk brocade robe, knelt under the hall, bowed to Liu Qing, who was sitting in front of him in a red longevity dress, and then offered a birthday wine.
"Okay! My son is filial, and the old man is very pleased!" Liu Qing took the wine glass that his child had raised, drank it all, and said with a smile on his face.

Before Liu Yu went down the mountain, he deliberately ran to the apricot forest, and spent a full 200,000 low-grade spirit stones to buy two "Heyuan Dan", and took them home to take to the second elder.
"Okay!" Liu Qing accepted with relief.
Next, some descendants of Liufu, nieces, nieces, nieces-in-law, grandnephews, nephews-in-law, etc., came forward to pay their respects in turn, and at the same time, the birthday banquet also began to be served.
"The old man celebrates his birthday today, all the distinguished guests can come with a face, Liu is grateful, Liu will take a cup first!" After the descendants bowed to celebrate their birthdays, Liu Qing got up and stood up, raised his glass and thanked the guests in the courtyard.
"Good!"
"I wish the old man a long life!"
"I wish Master Liu, good health and prosperity!"
The guests in the courtyard all raised their glasses and stood up, congratulating the birthday star.
"Liu Mou thank you Daoist Du for coming to celebrate his birthday!" Soon after the birthday banquet, Liu Qing took Liu Yu and began to toast to each table, first of all, Du Daochang, the head of the Mayuan Taoist Temple, Yu Laodaochang, the head of the Yu family, and the prefect of Pingyang, Chen Zhifu and other high-ranking officials sat at the wine table in the main hall.
"Master Liu is polite! Poor Dao and Ling Gongzi are the same door, Master Liu celebrates his 60th birthday, and Poor Dao naturally wants to come to ask for a glass of wine. Du Daochang got up and said with a smile in return.
"Chun'er, do you still like it?" When Liu Yu was toasting the guests at the table with his father, the old lady Ai Shi looked at it with a smile in her eyes, beckoned her personal maid Huan Chun'er, and whispered.
"Hmm!" Chun'er is Mrs. Ai's personal maid, eighteen years old, bright eyes and bright teeth, graceful, and extremely delicate, glanced at the eldest son, his pretty face was slightly red, and nodded silently.
The banquet starts from noon to the end of the unitary hour, during which the planning is staggered, very lively, after the unitary hour, the guests begin to disperse, Liu Yu on behalf of the father in front of the door to personally send each other, the people in the house also began to clean up the banquet, clean the courtyard, and have been busy until the night, the house slowly returned to calm.
"Hmm!" After greeting for a day, Liu Yu was a little tired, and after greeting the second elder, he walked back to his bedroom, but after pushing the door and entering, he found that there was a woman with a red satin phoenix embroidery hijab sitting on the edge of the bed, this scene was a little familiar, Liu Yu couldn't help frowning.
"Childe, you're back!" said the woman who sat on the edge of the bed, timidly.
"What's your name?" Liu Yu came to the long table in the middle of the bedroom and sat down, poured himself a cup of sobering herbal tea, and asked calmly.
"The slave's name is Chun'er!" The woman's voice was as crisp as a yellow warbler, and she knew that she was still young when she heard it. From the trembling voice, it can be heard that the woman is very nervous.
"Who asked you to come to the room!" Liu Yu took a sip of herbal tea and asked.
"It was the lady who asked the slave maid to come and sleep for the son. The woman replied softly.
"Let's go out!" Liu Yuchai was also arranged by his mother, these days his mother brought several young ladies from the county to meet him, and wanted to arrange a family affair for Liu Yu, but Liu Yu refused.
"Chun'er, don't be famous, if you can add a son and a half daughter to the house, it will be Chun'er's blessing!" the woman said in a trembling voice.
"No need, you better go back!" Liu Yu sternly refused.
"Childe, Madame let..."
"Hey!" Liu Yu sighed, didn't listen to Chun'er, got up and walked out of the room, he could understand his mother's thoughts, he was such a man in the third room, he had never married in his own cultivation, and his mother must be in a hurry, afraid that the third room would break the incense.
"Childe!" Hearing Liu Yu walk out of the room, the little girl hurriedly said, after a while, there was no movement in the room, the little girl took off the red hijab on her head, and her eyes were red aggrievedly.
"Confused!" Not long after, the old man Liu Qing learned about the incident and couldn't help but complain to his wife.
"Yu'er, he has been cultivating in Xianmen for many years, and he is not too young, and he has always refused to marry, so the slave family can only do this. Mrs. Ai sat at the table and said with tears in her eyes.
"Hey, since Yu'er has entered the immortal gate, he can't look at it in a worldly state, Yu'er is bent on seeking the Tao, we must not delay his cultivation because of these worldly trivialities!" Liu Qing sighed and said bitterly.
"If Yu'er doesn't marry in his life, my lord, after you break off, how will the slave family face the ancestors of the Liu family after they die?" said Mrs. Ai with tears in her eyes.
"Madam, how could you have such an idea, Hao'er and they are not all after the Liu family, and they will continue the incense of the Liu family. Liu Qing stepped forward and patted his wife and said comfortingly.
"The big room and the second room have children, but we have the third room, Yu'er enters the fairy gate, how is this good?" Mrs. Ai still did not untie the knot, and cried to Liu Qing.
"The big room and the second room are the same for the Liu family, Mrs. is too worried, not to mention that there are still Ying'er and Haoyu. Liu Qing said with a slight frown.
"How can that be the same. "Mrs. Ai is just an ordinary woman, passing on the family lineage and dividing the door, these worldly bad habits have long been ingrained in her heart, and as she enters the curtain year, her heart is becoming more and more anxious.
"Yu'er, has embarked on the road of seeking immortals and asking the Tao, has become a small success in the immortal gate, has long been the glory of the ancestors, if one day, the achievement of the avenue, our Liu family will be regarded as a name for the ages, how can the ancestors blame you, madam! You are too worried!" Liu Qing painstakingly enlightened, his own Yu'er is already a dragon and phoenix among people, this continuation of the incense, do not need to look too seriously.
"Besides, if Mrs. still can't figure it out, Ying'er is still young, let them have another husband and wife, and then go to the house. Liu Qing saw that his wife was still crying, so he expressed the thoughts that he had been thinking about for a long time.
"The slave family will talk to Ying'er tomorrow!" When Mrs. Ai heard this, she was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it carefully, she thought it was feasible, so she wiped away her tears and said.
"Hmm!" Liu Qing nodded, acquiescing in the matter, Yu'er was bent on begging, this secular marriage delayed his practice, and he would not mention it in the future.
In the Qianfu Slope outside Jiuzheng County, Liu Yuzheng knelt in front of a cyan adobe brick stone grave, and a huge ink-colored stone tablet was erected in front of the tomb, which was engraved:
The tomb of his loving father Liu Li
Sons Liu Xiao, Liu Jie, Liu Qingli
It is the tomb of Liu Yu's late grandfather, Liu Li.
"Grandpa, my grandson knows my mother's thoughts, but my grandson is not filial, and when he embarks on this long road of life, he can only temporarily abandon these worldly things, I hope you can always understand!" Liu Yu put the long incense in his hand in front of the grave, bowed his head and said.
"The Xuan family still has descendants, and the incense has not been cut off, and your grandson has also helped you repay the debts of the Xuan family, so you can rest in peace!" Liu Yu bowed his head and bowed, and then said.
"Your grandson has built a foundation and opened up the Purple Mansion, you can be comforted. No matter how tortuous and dangerous this road to immortality is, you can rest assured that your grandson will continue to move forward and will live up to your grandfather's hard work. Liu Yu bowed again and said.
Liu Yu knelt in front of the grave motionless, until the sky was white, then got up to remove the weeds around the grave, and burned paper money for a while before leaving to return to Liu's mansion and come to worship again, and I don't know how many years later.
