Different from the princes who have their own thoughts, the whole Qin family village is plunged into a sea of joy, with soaring fireworks and festive songs, which makes people excited, enthusiastic and satisfied.
"I'm coming."
"The two princesses are here."
Someone shouted excitedly, and the crowd moved aside, only to see some people slowly coming over. The leaders were He'er and Li Xueyan, followed by the Guards Battalion, carrying a large basket with coins in it.
The music was paused, and everyone gathered around to watch the excitement. The mature and steady man shouted loudly: "Don't squeeze, stay back. If anyone dares to collide with the two ladies, I will skin him."
"Yes, don't crowd, don't hurt the two ladies." Many people agreed, and the scene gradually became calm.
In the hearts of everyone in Qinjiazhuang, Qin Huaidao is the sky, and Qin Huaidao's two wives are the earth. No one can bully them, even if they touch them.
He'er said with a smile: "Dear young and old men of Qinjiazhuang, I am He'er. Thank you all for your support and trust in the young master this year. This time I am here to give you red envelopes. Red envelope is a word invented by the young master, similar to
The meaning of "happy money" and "reward", simply put, is to give money to celebrate the occasion and have fun together, but we have agreed first that the adults will not give it, only the children. This is also the rule set by the young master."
"Hahaha!"
"This is a good rule, young master is wise!"
Everyone laughed loudly, they were all honest people, no one would be greedy, not to mention everyone made a lot of money this year.
When the children heard that they were being given money, they immediately went crazy with joy and gathered around them one after another.
"Get in line, get in line for me."
"Whoever rushes, runs around, and bumps into the two ladies again, I will beat him to death."
“Hurry up and get in line!”
Someone immediately jumped out to maintain order and catch the naughty children running around.
The scene gradually became orderly, and a group of children lined up in two lines.
He'er and Li Xueyan distributed money to everyone, five copper coins per person. It didn't seem like much, just to celebrate, but for a child it was a huge sum of money. I had never seen it before, and the hands holding it were shaking.
An adult shouted worriedly: "Son, you are still young, please leave it to your father for safekeeping."
"That's right, Mom will keep it for you so that you can get a wife in the future."
"Bring it quickly, don't lose it."
The younger children did not dare to resist, but the older children said dissatisfiedly: "No, this is given to me by the madam. I keep it myself. Don't even think about taking it away."
"I gave it to you, will you give it back to me?"
"Hahaha!"
Everyone heard it interesting and laughed one after another.
The scene was extremely harmonious and joyful.
He'er also laughed and said: "The young master said, let the children decide on their own when giving red envelopes. It only happens once a year. Children who are exposed to money early will help improve their financial intelligence. They will know how to make money and how to spend money in the future.
I don’t understand what financial intelligence is, but what the young master said is definitely not wrong.”
"Since the young master said so, just take it yourself."
"Young Master is a great talent, what he said is definitely correct!"
"That's right, we listen to the young master."
"Hahaha!"
Everyone was very happy. To others, five copper coins could buy a bucket of fine rice and noodles and live for a month, but to Qinjiazhuang, it was just a small sum. It didn't matter. What the young master said was more important.
It took a while for the red envelopes to be distributed. He'er and Li Xueyan went to the stage to give out red envelopes to today's singers. No one had twenty red envelopes, and they were saying thank you. Everyone in the orchestra saw that the two ladies were so friendly, so He'er gave it up.
After all, Li Xueyan was the head of the county, his status was unattainable, and yet he was so kind. Everyone was overjoyed and thanked him one after another.
Qin Huaidao also laughed when he saw this scene not far away.
The purpose of letting the two ladies come forward is of course to improve their status in Qinjiazhuang, especially Li Xueyan, who is not familiar with Qinjiazhuang. After this incident, her reputation will definitely increase.
After a night of carnival, everyone in Qinjiazhuang was sleepless.
Early the next morning, Qin Huaidao stayed up all night according to the rules. After eating something, he lay down and was about to take a nap for a while. The guards came to report that Yuchi Baoqi had come.
Qin Huaidao was a little surprised when he heard the news. According to the rules, the junior should visit the elder's house, and he should go to Yuchi Gong's house. This Yuchi Baoqi is a brother of the same generation. Why did he come here so early in the morning? Could something have happened?
After a flash of thought, Qin Huaidao hurried out to greet him, led him to the living room and asked: "Brother, what are you doing?"
"Come here on my father's orders." Yuchi Baoqi tucked it away without hiding it, and explained Yuchi Gong's intention.
"Marriage Li Derjian?"
Qin Huaidao looked at Yuchi Baoqi in surprise and asked: "Little sister Ling'er really likes Li Derjian? She is not a martial artist, so she should choose a military general."
"How can this be false? I don't understand anything about men and women, but my little sister has this intention. You also know how much my father loves my little sister." Yuchi Baoqi also looked helpless.
Qin Huaidao really knew Yuchi Gong's love for Ling'er. He was so scared that he could not bear to be wronged at all. He said with a smile: "I understand what Uncle Yuchi means. This is a good thing. Of course.
Support, I will ask Uncle Li and Li Derjian what they mean later."
"What about my father's side?" Yuchi Baoqi asked.
Yu Chigong has a special status. It will definitely not work if he suddenly disappears or comes directly. Qin Huaidao thought for a moment and said: "We can't act rashly now. If Uncle Li and Li Derjian both agree to this marriage, when I leave Chang'an, I will take Ling'er to Hanzhou to get married."
, your family quietly left Chang'an to find your eldest brother. Your eldest brother's manpower has increased by two thousand, and there are three hundred more ships. We are in need of help from our own people."
"This is a good arrangement!" When Yuchi Baoqi heard that he could go to his elder brother, which meant there was going to be a battle, he was immediately excited and agreed.
After chatting for a few words, Yuchi Baoqi was anxious to go back and left in a hurry.
Qin Huaidao sent the man out of the house and watched him riding away. His heart was full of gratitude and a heavy sense of responsibility. The Yuchi family had tied their wealth and lives to themselves. At this time, He'er's voice came from behind: "Young Master
Lord, I heard that Young Master Yuchi has left, why don’t you eat?"
"It's okay, prepare a big gift and accompany me out in the afternoon."
"Okay!" He'er agreed without asking any more questions.
At this time, Li Xueyan hurriedly walked out and whispered: "Mr. Lang, I just received a message from Fei Ge. Tubo is gathering troops and intends to march eastward to Tuyuhun. It is expected to send troops in ten days."
"Can't wait?" Qin Huaidao looked at the western sky, his eyes instantly stern.
"Why are they so eager to send troops? Isn't Tuyuhun under our control? I remember there are imperial troops stationed there. Do they want to attack by surprise?" Li Xueyan asked curiously.
"I don't know. Maybe I want to provoke internal strife in the Tang Dynasty, maybe I want to bring internal conflicts to the outside, or maybe I want to frame me. It will be clear in ten days. Tubo is going to fight. Where to fight? Send the order and let people watch closely. The key point
Collect topographic maps of Tibet, the more detailed the better, they will be of great use in the future."
"Okay, I'll go deliver the order." Li Xueyan agreed and headed towards the backyard.
He'er asked worriedly: "War costs the most money, do you want to prepare some? There are still many in the village."
"The banker secretly used half of his money to buy grain in Hanzhong, arranged a caravan to be sent to Hanzhou, and stocked up for use in preparation for the upcoming war. He also purchased a batch of oil, eggs, mutton oil and noodles. I will make them when I have free time.
The fried noodles should be used as dry food. We will need it when we leave Chang'an. The matter is important and must not be leaked," Qin Huaidao warned.
"Understood, I will keep an eye on it personally." He'er quickly agreed.
"Tibet?"
"Lu Dongzan?"
Qin Huaidao said coldly, with a stern look. Since he was looking for death, he didn't mind killing him again. When he saw Jia Youcai coming from outside with a fat sheep in his hand, he hurried up to meet him and said, "Uncle Jia, I have something for the people below to do."
It’s just that you have a stronger body.”
"Thank you for your concern, young master. My bones are fine and I can still draw my sword." Jia Youcai smiled happily when he saw Qin Huaidao caring about him so much.
"I know you are powerful, but you still have to be careful. If something goes wrong, my father's spirit in heaven will blame you. Give it to me." Qin Huaidao said and went to get it.
Jia Youcai sidestepped and said quickly: "Young master, you can't lose your rules. You are the master of the house, how can you do such a vulgar thing? Ma Laosan knows that the young master is good at mutton hot pot, and he went into the mountains to hunt yesterday.
It arrived not long ago and it’s still fresh.”
"The mountain is closed due to heavy snow. It's too dangerous. We can't let him go again. I'll send him a jar of white wine to warm his body." Qin Huaidao warned, how could two generations of people not understand the principle of reciprocity.
"A jar of white wine is more valuable than this sheep's gold. The young master is benevolent and righteous." Jia Youcai said with emotion.
"People are kind, but we can't be unreasonable. Let's stew it for a while. Let's have a few drinks as a family to celebrate the beginning of the new year." Qin Huaidao deftly took the sheep and threw it to Luo Wu who was standing next to him, and warned: "
Find someone to wash it off and come over to drink together later, leaving half for the brothers to drink."
"Thank you, uncle." Luo Wu agreed.
"Thank you, we are all our own people!" Qin Huaidao pretended to be unhappy and said with a smile.
"hey-hey!"
The guards surrounding him all smiled and felt cordial.
