General Jiang didn't care about this painting at all. In fact, he usually only appreciated the paintings on the wall, which were mainly of horses, and he could understand that.
"It's a good thing you didn't see it." Xiao Cunyu laughed.
"What do you mean?" General Jiang was puzzled.
"Since it's yours, I have to make it clear to you. This thing is not very good, and the painting is not very clean. You are old and weak. If you stare at it for a long time, something will happen sooner or later." Xiao Cunyu said as he rolled up the painting.
She was able to control these things and not be distracted by the paintings.
It’s hard to say about others.
General Jiang was unconvinced: "Isn't it just a painting?"
"If you believe me, ask your descendants about the origin of this painting tonight. Tomorrow I will take you out to play. We will eat and drink and then meet the person who painted this painting. You will understand." Xiao Cunyu made arrangements directly.
General Jiang was quite unhappy.
A little brat invites an old man out to play?
How ridiculous it would be if you told others about it?
"Don't want to go?" Xiao Cunyu raised his eyebrows. "Old man, I'm just boring. If you don't want to go, forget it. But I'll help you get rid of the bad luck in this painting. You have to give me one hundred taels of silver. If you don't want to see it with your own eyes, then I'll give you the silver in advance."
"..." Old Master Jiang was so angry that he was fuming. "What did you do to deserve money? How could the Xiao family produce such a disrespectful person like you? Even if your grandfather was here, he wouldn't ask me for money so easily!"
"You still don't believe me." Xiao Cunyu smacked his lips, then squinted his eyes and thought about it.
He looked at the old man's face and counted on his fingers.
After a moment, he said seriously, "Is there a woman in your family about to give birth? According to my calculations, there will be good news tonight at midnight. Your three yang meridians are blue, so you should have a granddaughter. However, there is a stagnant color in the tip of your umbilical cord, so this pregnancy may be dangerous. It's best to prepare early."
General Jiang's expression became more complicated.
This kid is talking more and more nonsense.
His eldest son's concubine... is indeed pregnant. It is not clear how many months she is pregnant, but it should not be time for her to give birth yet.
"You'll know after watching tonight. If I'm right, remember to come to me with two hundred taels of silver when your grandson comes to apologize tomorrow morning." After Xiao Cunyu finished speaking, he walked out of the warehouse holding the painting.
"How come it became two hundred taels again!?" General Jiang was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Old Xiao's grandson is so greedy for money!
"It will cost one hundred taels to deal with this painting, and it will also cost one hundred taels to calculate your granddaughter's birthday." Xiao Cunyu turned around and gave him the answer.
After saying that, he left without looking back.
General Jiang felt that this kid was a little smart, but he was also a little surprised and curious why this kid was so arrogant.
Xiao Cunyu left happily.
General Jiang returned to the yard, looked at his grandson, and then thought about other people's... He felt a pain in his liver.
"Get up, you useless thing." The old general was full of resentment. "Do you know where you went wrong?"
Jiang Hanyi stood up sullenly and thought for a moment: "People from the Xiao family cannot be beaten."
"Bullshit! Who said you can't fight?!" General Jiang wanted to slap him again, but he knew that he was stupid to begin with, so beating him would be useless, so he said: "Even if you hit him, you should find a reason to convince the others! You are so good, you failed to steal someone's things and then resorted to violence. He shouted it out to the whole capital, and if this matter spread to the army, what will happen to you? The Xiao family has a lot of connections in the army, and you will be the one who suffers!"
