Now that I am arrogant, I can listen to other people's songs leisurely, but others can only accommodate them. Isn't this a bit bullying?

Dad is a kind-hearted person.

Xu Jiaojiao said: "Of course it was voluntary. The money spent during the Chinese New Year has doubled! Dad, they can also choose to rest, but they choose to make money or rest. You don't have to feel uncomfortable.

, I feel sorry for it, I think we are bullying them with money, but on the contrary, we are helping them."

Xu Youde was surprised, "Help them? Where did you start?"

Xu Jiaojiao: "They want to make money and make double money. We will help him. Wouldn't we help? Isn't it that they are afraid that they want to make money but no one invites them. That's what they don't want to see, right?

They need to exchange this money through labor. Does Dad want to give them a sum of money for free?"

"Of course not!" Xu Youde said decisively without thinking.

"Okay, okay, it's better for us Jiaojiao!" Xu Zhang waved, "You old man, if you deserve happiness, you can enjoy it. What are you thinking about when you make a cabinet with black paint and lacquer paste?"

Xu Jiaojiao smiled, "Dad, when the stage is set up, you can just go and see it. This is the greatest support for them! Also, if you feel sorry for it, you can give them a reward."

Xu Youde sniffed, "That won't work. If that happens, I will become a master? That's not suitable..."

At the same time, the gate of the capital was also very lively.

There are also many opera troupes like Qingyu Ban. After all, there are many wealthy families in the capital, so there are only many invited teams.

At this time, a team was waiting to enter the city.

Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. The inspection at the city gate is very strict and you need to queue up to enter.

The city gate guard looked at the group of people and found that they were all covered in dust, as if they had been rushing a long way.

"Where are you from? What are you doing when you go into the city?"

A man immediately smiled and said, "Jiang Ye, we are just people from the suburbs. We have joined forces to build a opera troupe, so we want to go to the city to see if there is any business."

The guard said, "The opera troupe? You see some face-to-face. Whose family invited you? Or who are you planning to go to?"

The man said: "We know Yan..."

Before he finished speaking, he was pulled down by a man in blue shirt behind him and said, "What do we know? We have been traveling around for many years, so we have a little bit of a face. Isn't it the New Year now, we want to make money in the city.

I have more opportunities for money, so I want to go in and take a look. Please give me some convenience."

The guard said with some suspicion, "Did he just want to say, who do you know?"

The man in the blue shirt smiled and said, "He overestimated his abilities. We used to know two masters, but we haven't seen each other for many years. Who still remembers us? So this time we went to the city, we just tried our luck."

The guard ordered the soldiers to search.

The bags were opened one by one, and they were indeed just props and daily necessities for opera.

The man in blue shirt stepped forward, approached the guard, secretly handed out a piece of silver, and said:

"It's all the guys who make a living, Mr. Jiang, this little thing, please have a little tea. Our team hasn't made a name for themselves outside. This time, I finally caught up with the Chinese New Year, so I thought about getting close.

Look for an employer and make a living, please be kind to me.”

The guard held the silver in his hand and squeezed it, touching about one or two taels.

One tael of silver is not much for a group of people, but the opera troupe does not make much money most of the time, which is already quite generous.

The guards looked at the soldiers and did not find any suspicious things. In addition, there were many people waiting to enter the city, so they took a paper such as a pass, stamped on it, and gave it to the man in the blue shirt.

, waved their hand and let them enter the city.

The troupe went far away and turned two more turns. The previous man said:

"Hey, boss, do we need to be troublesome like this? Wouldn't it be enough to turn it in from the city wall at night?"

The man in the blue shirt said: "Come in, and then? Look for clues and targets secretly? It's different now, we have this."

He raised the pass in his hand, "With it, we can appear everywhere! Wouldn't it be much more convenient?"

The people behind him also praised him, thinking that this was better.

The man was a little angry, but he couldn't refute, "What should we do now?"

The man in the blue shirt said: "Let's find an inn, stay in first, and then ask slowly. We are not afraid of any investigation now, so why are we in a hurry?"

Paused and said,

"Last brother, I don't want to talk to you. You almost made a big mistake just now, do you know?"

The man called the third brother said, "I know, but even if I say who it is, it's no big deal, right? Maybe we already know where we are now, so wouldn't that be a good thing?"

The man in the blue shirt said: "You think too well, will others tell you this easily? Besides, aren't you afraid of arousing others' suspicion when you say this?"

Man: "What do you doubt? We are just performing operas. Haven't they checked it? The target is very famous. Isn't it normal for us to go there to make money?"

"You are called being smart!"

The man in blue shirt snorted coldly, "It is precisely because of this that I cannot mention it! If the guard is a enthusiastic person and wants to send someone to take us over directly, I ask you, what should you do?"

The man was stunned.

After a while, he murmured, "He probably won't do this, right?"

The man in the blue shirt: "Hmph, you just said that the goal is very famous. Now it's the Chinese New Year again. How do you know that he will not do this in order to sell well or to ask for a reward?

To put it, it’s just a matter of talking, and we’re going to have big trouble!”

As soon as these words came out, the man had to lower his head in defiance.

...

It was noon that Liao Qing didn't come back.

Worship is always tedious, so Xu Jiaojiao doesn't want to go.

Also here with Du Zhengyan.

The rules of Daxiang Country are that the first day of the New Year is mainly to greet each other. Of course, when you meet acquaintances outside, you will also tell each other that the New Year is good. However, serious visits to relatives and friends must start from the second day of the New Year.

However, it is not too strange that close relatives come to visit the door on the first day of the New Year.

Du Zhengyan may also think that it would not be annoying to come to the door today, so he came here together.

I had a meal in the mansion, sat down and watched a show before I went back.

After thinking about it, Xu Jiaojiao simply took Liao Qing and her parents to visit Du Mansion to pay New Year's greetings. The two families lived so close, and it felt embarrassed not to get close to each other.

There are also opera troupes in the Du family, but there are fewer people. Most of the people who watch the opera are guards and old mothers.

Apart from Lao Du and the old lady, there is only Du Yufang, one son and two concubines, who are lonely.
