Shuidong Street, in front of a residential building.
There were two girls, one was arrogant with her head tilted and her arms crossed, the other was well-behaved with her head lowered.
The well-behaved Suo'er looked up at the low wall, turned his head to look at Xianjin, and then turned his head to look at the circle of dead leaves and vines climbing on the low wall.
"...Aren't we going to worship the God of Wealth?"
Suo'er swallowed his saliva.
There are only two words on this door plaque, and there are three words on "Temple of the God of Wealth".
She can't read, but she knows how to count!
“Is this the Temple of the God of Wealth?”
Suo'er asked blankly.
Xianjin crossed his arms and smiled, saying, "To us, he is the great God of Wealth."
Xianjin said this as he walked forward and knocked on the door bolt.
The little doorman poked his head out and asked, "Who are you?"
Xianjin smiled and said, "I'm from the shop, come to wish Master Liu a happy new year."
As he spoke, he took out something wrapped in red velvet from his bosom with one hand, and took out ten coins from his sleeve pocket with the other hand and handed them to the doorman, "You know, it's New Year's Day, we have to be sensible, right?"
The young gatekeeper looked at Xianjin twice, closed the door and ran back. After a while, the door opened with a creak. The young gatekeeper took Xianjin in, and Suoer followed behind awkwardly.
Before entering the house, Xianjin stopped, turned around, gently squeezed Suo'er's palm, leaned in and whispered, "Wait a moment, if you see the situation is not right, retreat immediately."
She hadn't originally intended to bring this girl along, but Aunt Zhang had insisted. She couldn't explain and couldn't stand the puppy eyes of the little girl.
Then take it with you.
Considering that this little girl dared to fight for her own life in front of those two beasts in her family, she must be a coward.
Suo'er was stunned and exclaimed "Ah", but before he could react, he followed into the main house.
Suo'er had to hold back her exclamation for a long time before she could stop herself from exclaiming in amazement. She had never seen such a bright and luxurious hall before. It was built with blue bricks everywhere. The tables and stools looked so heavy that they would kill you. There was also a big, white windshield. What was stuck on it? It was shiny and colorful...
Xianjin's eyes swept across the decorations in the main hall, and then fell on the gloomy face of Master Chen Liu.
Xianjin bowed awkwardly, smiling, "Happy New Year, old man!"
Good, good ass!
If you don't bother me, I'll enjoy everything I eat and feel healthy!
Master Chen Liu's face almost dropped to his chest, "Don't worry Miss He, on the fifth day of the first lunar month to welcome the God of Wealth, the old house must mobilize a large number of people to pray for good weather and good harvests in the coming year. Miss He, as the head of the Jingxian workshop, has the final say, why don't you stir up trouble in the old house and come to my humble abode just to give a New Year gift?"
Xianjin dragged a chair for himself, and Suoer also brought a small stool. He greeted them in a familiar manner, "Suoer, sit down."
He ordered the old servant with a mustache standing behind Master Chen Liu, "Please bring a pot of hot tea and two baskets of cakes." He smiled at Master Chen Liu and said, "I had an almond candy and a plate of melon seeds at noon. I'm very hungry."
Master Chen Liu was so angry that he almost died.
This little rascal came to order food from him? !
"Bang—" Master Chen Liu slammed his hands on the table, his ears red with anger, "If you have something to say, say it! If not... get out!"
Chen Liu had a thin face, a dark forehead, a long middle face, yellowish cheeks, and purple lips. He was a doctor who had been ill for a long time. One look at him showed that he probably had problems with his heart, liver, and kidneys. His eyes were cloudy, with soybean-sized particles in the corners of his eyes. His blood pressure, blood sugar, and blood lipids were probably all "high".
Are you suffering from high blood pressure, high blood sugar and irritability and are you worried that the devil won’t take you away fast enough?
Xianjin's smile deepened, he leaned back, and put his hands on the back of the armchair, "Don't hit a smiling person. I came to give a gift to the Sixth Master. It's not a good way for you to drive away guests."
Xianjin stretched out his arms and said with a smile, "I really don't know how you have been doing business all these years with your personality?"
Master Chen Liu was so angry that his throat was smoking.
This bitch not only came here to order food, but also came here to do something shameless! ?
Master Chen Liu took a deep breath, raised his hand, and was about to say something harsh, but he saw this bastard took out something that was tightly wrapped in red cloth and looked like a gift from his arms and threw it in front of him.
"I know I have offended you badly, so I brought gifts today to make amends." Xianjin stopped smiling and motioned the old servant with a mustache to open it, "Take a look, do you like it?"
The old servant with a moustache glanced at Master Chen Liu, who squinted his eyes and nodded.
It is a thick stack of booklets.
The old servant with a moustache flipped through a few pages and was shocked. "Master...Master, it's the account book! It's the account book left by Manager Zhu!"
Master Chen Liu felt a foul air rising from his chest, with a smell of iron in it. He propped himself up and snatched the booklet from the old servant with a mustache. He read it quickly. The more he read, the heavier the air rising from his chest to his throat became, and the more obvious the smell of iron in his air became!
Month after month...indeed...every single stroke matches.
In addition to reselling Bazhangxuan's account to Anyang Prefecture...
He sold it for 300 taels, but Old Zhu only knew about 100 taels, and he pocketed 200 taels from it...
This account book is real...
Master Chen Liu's hands were shaking. He looked up and saw Xian Jin waiting for him with a smile. He suddenly became malicious and said in a hoarse voice, "Lock the door...Send five strong servants over...Quick!"
Suo'er's face changed.
The look in this old man's eyes was exactly the same as the look in her elder and second brothers' eyes when they were about to hit her!
Suo'er subconsciously stood in front of Xianjin, with his fists clenched tightly in his sleeves. Although he was small, his eyes were like a hungry wolf, staring at Master Chen Liu!
Xianjin stood up slowly, first pulled down the lock, then sneered softly, saying sarcastically, "Are you getting old and confused?"
