The voice sounded familiar. Xuan Bao and the others looked up and saw Young Master Pianpian dressed in green on the second floor slowly walking down the stairs while shaking the golden abacus in his hand.
"Third uncle!" Xuan Bao shouted loudly.
The person who came downstairs was Li Shen, the third master of Yongchang Palace. When he saw Xuan Bao running towards the stairs with his short legs, he quickened his pace and went downstairs.
Just at the entrance of the stairs on the first floor, Li Shen hugged Xuan Bao, who was rushing towards him: "Hey, dear, don't run away, be careful not to fall."
Xiao Kexiao was dumbfounded. He had been in and out of the Yongchang Palace since he was a child. No matter whether he was an elder brother or a younger brother, he had never seen anyone so close to his uncles.
The shopkeeper, shop assistants, and waiters in Juwei Building were all dumbfounded. The little girl was so extraordinary that the boss actually threw the golden abacus on the ground, which was always in his hand, just so he could hold her with both hands.
Xuan Bao put his arms around Li Shen's neck, and he picked her up with one hand while picking up the golden abacus and giving it to her to play with.
"Wow, the golden light is so beautiful, but it's a bit heavy." Xuan Bao played with the golden abacus a few times with a hint of disgust in his tone.
"I've met Third Uncle." Xiao Kexiao saluted and took over, "This golden abacus is made of pure gold. It is unique in the entire capital. It is Third Uncle's symbol. You still dislike it."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter." Li Shen held Xuan Bao and watched her playing with the golden abacus with a doting look on his face, "Uncle, the big abacus is bigger. Later I will make a smaller one that won't be as heavy, so it's easier for you to play with."
."
Xuan Bao cheered and nodded repeatedly: "Okay."
"Little darling, how did you know that third uncle is here?" Li Shen asked casually.
"I don't know, I'm here to eat." After saying this, Xuan Bao's belly made a growling sound.
Li Shen glared at Xiao Kexiao and then ordered him repeatedly. Everyone who was standing there began to get busy.
Carrying Xuan Bao to the private room on the third floor, he put the baby on the chair. The shopkeeper who came in immediately brought milk, pre-meal snacks and fruits for them to fill their stomachs.
Li Shen turned around and got angry at Xiao Kexiao. He was so smooth-talking and his curse words were not heavy enough.
Dong Xue and Xia Yu were waiting on the left and right, and Xuan Bao was busy taking time to defend Xiao Kexiao: "Third uncle, I don't blame the second brother."
"You don't have to speak for him." Li Shen scolded and waved his hand happily, "I've known for a long time that you bunch of Xiao family bastards are all unreliable."
Xiao Kexiao had a complex expression and was speechless. His third uncle knocked down a boatload of people with a bamboo pole. He died unjustly but had no choice but to admit it.
Li Shen vented the frustration that was stuck in his heart. After all, Xiao Kexiao was his nephew, so he couldn't punish him.
Li Shen turned around and saw Xuan Bao sitting in front of the table with her mouth full. The little baby was chewing quickly like a squirrel with its cheeks bulging and her bright starry eyes sparkling with joy.
The smile is so cute and makes people feel happy just looking at it.
He walked over and sat down next to Xuan Bao. Li Shen touched the little baby's head and said, "Xuan Bao, don't do it to yourself. Just come to Juweilou to eat whatever you want. If you don't want to go out, let someone pass the message to you directly."
Send it to the yard."
"Third uncle, second brother said this is a famous restaurant in the capital. Isn't it very expensive?"
"Is it expensive? I don't know. Anyway, Juweilou is my third uncle. It's not natural for an uncle to treat you to dinner."
Any store in the capital with the word "Ju" in front of its name belongs to Third Uncle." As he spoke, Li Shen took out a small jade sign from his arms and handed it over, "With this, you can get whatever you want."
"No." Xuan Bao refused decisively.
Hearing this, Xiao Kexiao recovered from the shock. Did Xuan Bao know what he was rejecting? The third uncle is worthy of being the God of Wealth. The industries in the capital are spread across all walks of life, not to mention most of them are in the industry. Chu Qiao, that little jade card is quite
In the gold mine!
Li Shen showed a hurt look, and saw Xuan Bao preaching seriously: "Third uncle, I know you love me, but you can't give such important things to others easily, especially to such a little baby like me. If you lose it,
What should I do?"
"You don't mind it?"
"How dare I dislike you? I can't accept it. Don't worry, I won't be polite to you. The money won't go to others. Anyway, you gave me a lot of money."
"Oh, my little darling is so sensible." Li Shen smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into slits.
While they were talking, the dishes were served one after another. Xuan Bao and the others had a hearty meal, with Li Shen accompanying them.
After eating and drinking enough, Xuan Bao finally felt energetic. The little baby wiped his mouth and stood up, patting his round belly, feeling very satisfied.
"Third uncle." Xuan Bao fumbled in his arms and stuffed it into Li Shen's Taoist Talisman, "This is for you."
"What talisman?" Li Shen lowered his voice. What Xuan Bao gave must be something good.
"Lucky Talisman."
"To attract wealth, I have enough money." Li Shen blurted out.
Xuan Bao's little hand took back the magic talisman: "That's right."
"Hey, the more money, the better." Li Shen quickly took away the magic talisman from Xuan Bao's hand.
Seeing Li Shen's unabashed money-obsessed look, Xuan Bao covered his mouth and chuckled. The third uncle was really different.
Seeing the disdain flashing across Xiao Kexiao's face, Li Shen said: "Don't underestimate money. A penny can stump a hero. Without money, nothing can be done."
"That's not necessarily the case." Xiao Kexiao couldn't help but retort, "My uncle, my second uncle, they have also accomplished great things as usual."
Li Shen's face darkened and he was about to speak, but Xuan Bao jumped in and said, "Second brother grew up in the Hou Mansion. He is never short of money and knows nothing."
Look, the little niece is still sensible, Li Shen's expression softened.
"How much can you get with that salary alone? According to me, the palace is grateful to have three uncles, not to mention the eldest uncle and second uncle. I'm afraid even my grandfather relies on him and gets money from him..."
Before Xuan Bao finished speaking, Li Shen covered his mouth: "Oh, dear, you are too smart. You just know this kind of thing and can't say it out loud."
Xiao Kexiao was completely stunned. No matter how stupid he was, he could still tell that what Xuan Bao said was the truth, so the third uncle stopped her.
It turns out that only someone with literary talent and military skills who can mix official positions and become a general can be relied upon by the family. Xiao Kexiao is not strong enough to practice martial arts, and his aptitude for literary studies is not as good as that of his third and fifth brothers. He is very confused and always feels that he is useless.
Xuan Bao and Li Shen never expected that they would give Xiao Kexiao the direction of life with just a few casual words.
"Third uncle, the word 'gather' does suit you, but it is too strong. You are amassing wealth and losing it at the same time." Xuan Bao said again in a surprising way.
Li Shen nodded repeatedly: "You're right, you're right, I earn a lot, but I don't actually have much saved on hand."
