The main hall of the courtyard of "Liuyun Escort Bureau" was full of guests, and the spacious front and rear yards were also filled with banquet tables. The main hall was set up as a longevity hall. In front of it was a huge "Thousands of Life Pictures", which offered blessings and blessings.
Lu, longevity three immortals.
On the birthday table are goldware, porcelain, birthday candles and other offerings, as well as birthday gifts such as longevity wine, fish, cakes and peaches.
There is a red carpet under the hall, with longevity screens on both sides, and longevity couplets spread horizontally. There are immortal patterns on the longevity screens, and longevity couplets are written with congratulatory messages such as "Life is higher than Nanshan Mountain, and happiness is as big as the East China Sea." There is a Taishi chair under the hall.
There are large chairs arranged on both sides, all covered with red chair covers and red chair cushions. The birthday boy, Mr. Liu, sits on the Taishi chair in the main hall.
"My little child, Liu Yu, I wish my father that you will have this day every year and this day every year!" Liu Yu, dressed in silk and brocade, knelt down the hall, kowtowed to Liu Qing, who was sitting in front of him and was wearing a red birthday suit, and then offered birthday wine.<

"Okay! My son is filial, I am very pleased!" Liu Qing took the wine glass offered by his child, drank it down, and said with a smile on his face.
"This is a gift prepared by the child for his father, two pills of "Crane Longevity"." Liu Yu took out two small antique wooden boxes and handed them to Liu Qing respectfully.
This "Crane Longevity Pill" is very famous. It is a special fourth-grade elixir that is refined from the essence and blood of the "Thousand-year-old Crane" and hundreds of years of snow ginseng and other spiritual materials. It can strengthen the body and stimulate the human body's potential.
, in order to achieve the effect of increasing the longevity of the user, not only the cultivators can take it, this elixir is mild and effective for secular mortals.
Before Liu Yu went down the mountain, he made a special trip to Bai Xinglin and spent a full 200,000 low-level spiritual stones to buy two "Crane Longevity Pills". He took them home and gave them to his two elders to take.
The lifespan of the two elders is not long, only about ten years. The most important thing for the two elders is to be able to get rid of their illnesses and get in good health so that they can spend their old age peacefully.
"Okay!" Liu Qing accepted it happily.
Next, some descendants of the Liu family, nieces, nieces-in-law, nephews-grandnephews, nieces-in-law, etc. came forward to pay their birthdays. At the same time, the birthday banquet also began, with delicacies from all over the world, steaming delicacies, and jars of fine wine.
Groups of maidservants were admitted to the hospital, and the Eight Immortals longevity tables in the hospital were filled.
"I am celebrating my birthday today, and I would like to express my gratitude to all of you distinguished guests for coming here. I would like to propose a toast to you first!" After all the descendants paid their respects, Liu Qing stood up and raised his glass to express his thanks to the guests in the courtyard.
.
"Okay!"
"I wish the old man a long life and long life!"
"I wish Mr. Liu good health and success!"
All the guests in the courtyard raised their glasses and stood up, congratulating the birthday boy one after another.
"Liu, thank you, Taoist priest Du, for coming to celebrate your birthday!" Not long after the birthday banquet, Liu Qing and Liu Yu began to toast to each table. First of all, Taoist priest Du of Asahara Taoist Temple, Taoist priest Yu Lao, the head of the Yu family, and
Zhengyang Magistrate Chen Magistrate and other high-ranking officials were seated at the table in the main hall.
"Master Liu, you're welcome! Pindao and Mr. Ling are from the same sect. Master Liu is celebrating his sixtieth birthday, so Pindao will naturally come to ask for a drink." Daochang Du stood up and returned the greeting with a smile.
"Chun'er! Do you still like it?" When Liu Yu and his father were toasting to the guests table by table, the old lady Ai looked at it with a smile in her eyes, called her personal maid Chun'er, and said in a low voice.
"Yes!" Chun'er is Mrs. Ai's personal maid. She is eighteen years old, with bright eyes and white teeth, and a cute little face. She glances at the majestic young master, her pretty face turns red, and she nods silently.
.
The banquet started at noon and ended at You time. During this period, there was a lot of people drinking and drinking, and it was very lively. After You time, the guests began to leave. Liu Yu saw them off in person at the door on behalf of his father. The servants in the mansion also started to pack up the table and clean the courtyard. They were busy until midnight at night.
Shangcai slowly returned to calm.
"Well!" After a day of greeting all the guests, Liu Yu was a little tired. After saying hello to his two elders, he walked back to his bedroom. However, after pushing the door open and entering, he found a man with a red satin and phoenix embroidered hijab sitting on the edge of the bed.
Woman, this scene seemed a bit familiar, and Liu Yu couldn't help but frown.
"Master! You are back!" The woman sitting on the edge of the bed said timidly.
"What's your name?" Liu Yu came to sit down at the wooden table in the middle of the bedroom, poured herself a cup of sobering herbal tea, and asked calmly.
"My name is Chun'er!" The woman's voice was as clear and clear as an oriole, and one could tell she was still young. From the slight trembling in her voice, it could be heard that the woman was very nervous.
"Who asked you to come to the room!" Liu Yu took a sip of herbal tea and then asked.
"The lady asked her servant to sleep with the young master." The woman replied softly.
"Get out!" Liu Yu guessed that it was also arranged by his mother. These days, his mother brought several ladies from the county to see him and wanted to arrange a marriage for Liu Yu, but Liu Yu rejected them all.
"Chun'er doesn't need status. If you can add a son and a half to your family, it will be Chun'er's blessing!" the woman said in a trembling voice.
"No, you'd better go back!" Liu Yu sternly refused.
"Sir, madam, please..."
"Hey!" Liu Yu sighed and didn't listen to Chun'er's words. He stood up and walked out of the room. He could understand his mother's thoughts. He was the only male in the third room. He was a Taoist and never married. His mother must be anxious and afraid of the third room.
The room has lost its incense.
"Young Master!" When she heard Liu Yu walking out of the room, the little girl hurriedly shouted to beg her to stay. After a while, there was no movement in the room. The little girl took off the red hijab on her head and shed tears in grievance. The Young Master looked down on her.
She sat quietly for a while, then the little girl got up and left the room, going to report back to the woman.
"Confused!" Not long after, the master Liu Qing learned of the matter and said to his wife with complaint.
"Yu'er, he has been practicing Taoism in the Immortal Sect for many years. He is already old and refuses to marry. The slave family has no choice but to do this." Mrs. Ai sat at the table and said wiping her tears.
"Hey! Now that Yu'er has entered the immortal sect, he cannot look at matters of marriage in a secular manner. Yu'er is dedicated to seeking the truth. We must not delay his cultivation because of these worldly trivial matters!" Liu Qing sighed and worked hard.
Persuaded.
"If Yu'er never marries you, Master, how will you face the ancestors of the Liu family after your death?" Mrs. Ai said with tears.
"Madam! How could you have such an idea? Hao'er and the others are not all descendants of the Liu family, so they will continue the Liu family's legacy." Liu Qing stepped forward, patted his wife, and said comfortingly.
"Both the big house and the second house have children, but our third house has Yu'er entering the immortal gate. What should we do?" Mrs. Ai still couldn't untie her knot, so she cried to Liu Qing.
"Both the first and second bedrooms are the same to the Liu family. Madam, you are worrying too much. Besides, there are Yinger and Haoyu." Liu Qing said with a slight frown.
"How can it be the same!" Mrs. Ai is just an ordinary woman, carrying on the family line and dividing the family. These worldly bad habits have long been ingrained in her heart. As she enters her senior years, she becomes more and more anxious.
"Yu'er, you have already embarked on the path of seeking immortality. You have achieved success in the immortal sect. You are already a glorious ancestor. If one day you achieve greatness, our Liu family will be famous for eternity. How can our ancestors blame you?"
You, madam! It’s you who are worrying too much!" Liu Qing tried hard to enlighten her. Her daughter, Yu'er, is already among the best, so there is no need to take the matter of continuing her incestuous relationship too seriously.
"Besides, if Madam still can't figure it out, Ying'er is still young. Let them have another child and adopt her into the house." Seeing that his Madam was still crying, Liu Qing expressed the idea that he had been thinking about for a long time. "Then I will talk to Ying'er tomorrow!" When Mrs. Ai heard this, she was stunned for a moment. After thinking about it carefully, she thought it was feasible, then wiped away her tears and said.
"Yes!" Liu Qing nodded and acquiesced to the matter. Yu'er devoted himself to seeking the truth. This secular marriage delayed his practice, so he will not mention it in the future.
On Qian Burial Slope outside Jiuzheng County, Liu Yuzheng was kneeling in front of a stone tomb made of blue adobe bricks. In front of the tomb stood a huge ink-colored stone tablet, on which was engraved:
Tomb of 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 understands my mother's thoughts, but my grandson is unfilial. As he embarks on this long journey of life, he can only temporarily abandon these worldly things. I hope you can always understand!" Liu Yu placed the incense stick in her hand in front of the grave.
, bowed his head and said.
"Then the Xuan family still has descendants, and the incense has not been cut off. Your grandson has also helped you pay off the debts of the Xuan family. You can rest in peace!" Liu Yu kowtowed and continued.
"My grandson has lived up to your expectations. He has laid the foundation for the road and opened up the Purple Mansion. No matter how twists and turns the road to immortality may be in the future, you can rest assured that my grandson will continue to move forward and live up to your hard work, grandpa.
Liu Yu kowtowed again and said.
Liu Yu knelt in front of the grave without moving until the sky turned white. Then he got up and removed the weeds around the grave. After burning paper money for a while, he returned to Liu's house. The next time he came to pay homage was unknown how many years later.
