When Li Tai and Yu Shinan left the Duke Lai's Mansion with the song "I'll Write a Wind Song", they got on the carriage.
Yu Shinan looked at the piece of paper with disgust and said, "Your Highness, it's better to throw this thing away. If you want to give Du He face, you don't need to do it now. He doesn't know anyway."
From the bottom of his heart, Yu Shinan despised this poem.
Of course, it’s hard to say whether it can be called poetry.
In his mind, this is just a piece of junk.
Li Tai smiled and said: "Sir, you don't have to be like this. Although this poem is weird, it still has some momentum. It's better to keep it. Regardless of Du He's intention or not, I am becoming more and more interested in this person."
"Oh?" Yu Shinan looked at Li Tai in surprise.
Li Tai said calmly: "They say Du He is extremely lecherous, but today the King of Japan gave him the jade carving from Japan. When he saw it for the first time, he didn't react at all. Doesn't this explain the problem? Legend has it that
That's wrong. In other words, he is just pretending to be lustful. This can be seen from the fact that he later pretended to be interested in jade carvings. This Du He is really an interesting person."
It turns out that Li Tai gave Du He the jade carving** not because he was crazy, but because he wanted to test Du He.
The result made him very satisfied.
Yu Shinan thought for a while and asked, "Then how can we explain this broken poem?"
Li Tai smiled and said: "Isn't this simple? Du He doesn't like me, and even hates me a little. He wants to reject my kindness in this way. If it were my eldest brother, I would have hated him long ago. It's a pity.
, how can I give up such a talent just because of this trivial matter?"
Yu Shinan looked at Li Tai's confident look and suddenly smiled: "Your Highness, you have finally matured."
Li Tai turned his head, looked at Yu Shinan, and said, "Sir, haven't you been testing me?"
The two looked at each other and smiled.

Today, Wang Erniu felt that he had never been so happy.
He has been working at Datang Furniture Factory for a full month. He spends every day in the printing room. During the busiest times, he doesn't even have time to eat. Sometimes he has to work until midnight before he can rest.
However, he and several craftsmen had no complaints.
Because you are paid for overtime work.
The normal wage is 10 cents per day, but if you work overtime, you can sometimes even get 30 cents, which is much more cost-effective than working during the day.
Early in the morning, someone came to tell him that his wife and children were visiting the furniture factory.
Wang Erniu told the housekeeper, Mr. Fu, and took leave in the afternoon to rest, and wandered around the furniture factory with his wife Zhou and their children.
He cannot leave the furniture factory before the two-month deadline is up.
When he arrived in the room, Wang Erniu looked at the door and saw that no one was there, then unbuttoned his pants and took out a black bag from his crotch.
Zhou asked hurriedly: "Er Niu, what are you going to do?"
Wang Erniu put the bag on the table and said with a smile: "Madam, this is my salary for this month, which is a full five hundred yuan. Hehe, I am afraid of being stolen, so I even carry it with me when I sleep. You
Take them all back and buy new clothes for you and the children, and buy whatever you want to eat. From now on, our family will have money."
Wang Erniu said, with a happy smile on his face.
Thinking about the time when I fled to Chang'an from the northwest, I thought I could seek refuge with my relatives to find a way out. Little did I know that the world had changed, and people's hearts had also changed. Wang Erniu's family had to live a life of dependence on others. Although Wang Erniu was young and powerful, he could only carve.
His craftsmanship can only feed one person in Chang'an City, but it is impossible to feed a family.
Now, he can earn 500 yuan a month. Not only can he feed and clothe his family, he can even send his two children to a private school.
Wang Erniu was very satisfied.
Zhou stroked Wang Erniu's face and said distressedly: "Erniu, you have lost weight."
Wang Erniu shook his head: "It's okay. It's much better than starving on the street before. In fact, I'm not busy a lot of the time. I also learned from the craftsman who built the revolving wooden chair. Now, I have also learned a lot of carpentry skills.
In the future, even if you no longer have the printing skills, you can still do carpentry, hehe..."
At this time, Du He walked in, saw this scene, and suddenly laughed: "Oh, my young master came at the wrong time!"
Mrs. Zhou hurriedly let go of her hand and looked away, her face full of shyness.
Wang Erniu hurriedly stepped forward and said enthusiastically: "Master, this is my wife and a pair of children. Madam, come and see the young master. If it weren't for the young master, our family would not know how to live now."
Mrs. Zhou hurriedly stepped forward: "I have met the second young master!"
Wang Erniu called his children over again to greet Du He.
However, both children were a little shy and just stared at Du He with wide eyes without speaking.
Especially the little girl, with her round face and some baby fat, she looks extremely cute.
Although the little boy has dark skin, he is very excited and his eyes are full of aura.
Du He said: "Er Niu, you are so lucky. You have both children and no worries about food and clothing."
Wang Erniu said hurriedly: "It's a drag on young master's luck. If you hadn't asked me to work in the printing room, young master, I wouldn't be so lucky."
As he spoke, he rubbed his hands excitedly.
Du He looked at the little girl and boy and said, "Call me brother!"
The little girl hesitated for a moment, then suddenly shouted happily: "Brother!"
Not to be outdone, the little boy hurriedly shouted: "Brother!"
Du He was in a good mood. He took out a heavy money bag and handed it to the little girl: "You're so good. My brother gave it to you. Take it to buy some snacks."
When Wang Erniu saw the bulging money bag, he was shocked and said: "Master, I can't use it. This money is too much. I can't take it."
That money bag contains at least several hundred coins.
As he was about to grab the money bag, Du He raised his hand to stop him: "Don't worry, this money is for my child. You can't touch it. At the same time, I suggest you that now that you have good conditions, you can
Find a private school teacher to teach your children. Even if you don’t study and become an official in the future, it is always good to be able to read and write."
Wang Erniu said movedly: "Thank you, Second Young Master, for your concern. I will definitely work hard to repay your kindness."
Du He smiled and said: "You don't owe me anything for doing things with money. So, I won't disturb you anymore. When you're done, come to the printing room. I have something to tell you."
After Du He left, Mrs. Zhou came over and asked curiously: "Is this Du He, the second son of Lai Guogong?"
Wang Erniu nodded.
Zhou asked doubtfully: "Other people say that Master Du He is a great harm to Chang'an and does all kinds of evil. But when I saw him today, he still looks like a child, and he is so kind-hearted. Erniu, you must follow the master and do good things in the future."
, please don’t cheat, otherwise I won’t be the first to spare you.”
Wang Erniu hurriedly promised: "Madam, don't worry, I want to make a lot of money with the young master."
