The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 62 Chapter 62
It was late that day, Duan Wuji practiced martial arts late, and he didn't go back to his parents' yard. Time was running out, so Duan Changsheng ran over.

"Dad, you didn't say you were going home for dinner, and the whole family was waiting for you. Hey, Er Dan, don't you remember what day it is today?"

Duan Wuji shook his head.

"Brother, I really don't know what day it is today, brother, what day is it today?"

Duan Changsheng laughed and said, "Brother, you've had a good time these days, you don't even remember what day it is.

Today is New Year's Eve!Tomorrow morning is New Year's Day.Let's go, Erdan, let's go watch the New Year as a family. "

Duan Wuji stood up immediately after hearing this.

"Brother, let's go."

The two brothers walked over from the yard of the cowshed as they spoke.

Entering the main room, Duan Wuji said with a smile: "I'm busy this year, that is, I didn't participate in buying new year's goods, and I didn't buy new clothes.

Mother!Take out my old clothes and change into a clean one. How can I say it's Chinese New Year? "

Liucaihua laughed and said, "Damn, see what you said? If you don't bother to buy new clothes, will we have no new clothes to wear?
Mother has already prepared for you.

How can we say that our income this year is higher than in previous years? If we can't even make out new clothes, it's too wrong. "

Liu Caihua took out some new clothes and put them on the kang.

Liu Caihua took out a blue satin and silk dress and handed it to Duan Yanqing first.

"Head of the family, this is your official uniform. It must look good in it. Master of the family, you are also a person of status from now on."

Duan Yanqing smiled wryly after hearing this: "What status do I have? Aren't I still a poor, miserable farmer? Our family has been farming and studying for many years. It hasn't changed for many years."

Duan Wuji laughed and said, "Heirloom of farming and reading? Can this make a fortune? Besides, it has nothing to do with farming and studying for us to make a fortune in these few years."

Duan Yanqing laughed and said: "Wuji, you are a different species in our family. You don't count."

Duan Wuji rolled his eyes.

"I don't count? Then our family is probably not as rich as it is today."

Liu Caihua took out a sky blue silky dress and handed it to Duan Changsheng.

"Changsheng, this dress is yours, take it and put it on, you are almost an adult, put on this new dress and make yourself a beautiful wife next year, don't let the bastard leave you behind."

Duan Wuji laughed and said, "Mother, what's the matter with me? Don't meddle with me, okay?"

Liu Caihua handed Duan Wuji a khaki silk dress.

"Damn, you practice martial arts every day, and this clothes is obviously dirty. If you practice martial arts in it, you will definitely not need to wash your clothes for a few days."

Liucaihua took out a khaki silk dress and handed it to Wang Shiping.

"Dear family, this is your first visit to my house, isn't it? It's just in time for the Chinese New Year. I also bought you some clothes. I wonder if you like it?"

Wang Shiping took the clothes and looked at them and said, "Mother-in-law, my old Wang is a farmer, and he didn't even wear such good clothes when he married a married woman! Thank you so much."

Liu Caihua laughed and said, "Dear family, you're welcome, are we all a family?"

In the end, Liu Caihua handed over a pair of pink underwear to Wang Jinhua.

"Jinhua, these are your new clothes, you can change into them later, they must look good."

Wang Jinhua took a look at the new clothes and said, "Mother, this fabric is really good, it will cost a lot of money, right?"

Liu Caihua said happily after hearing this: "Does that matter? Girl, you can just wear it, it will definitely look stylish when you wear it out."

The family ate dumplings, chatting and watching the new year.

Wang Jinhua looked at Duan Wuji and said: "Wuji, you will be 13 years old in a while, I wish you success in your business next year, and try to earn him 1 taels of silver next year."

Duan Wuji rolled his eyelids after hearing this.

"I said Sister Jinhua, does earning 1 taels of silver mean that business is going well? It shouldn't be called."

Duan Yanqing laughed and said: "Wuji, how much money does the business need to earn?"

Duan Wuji thought for a while and said: "If the business is going smoothly, you should earn one hundred and eighty thousand taels a year."

Liucaihua laughed and said, "You son of a bitch, you are so arrogant, but please don't have that dream. Does our family have such a big blessing?"

Duan Changsheng laughed and said: "Mother, don't underestimate the bastard, my brother is not small, otherwise, can the Chai official take a fancy to him?

Erdan, you are developed, don't forget about me, brother. "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "That's needless to say? You are my brother, you can spend the money I earn, brother, if I frown, then I am not your brother."

Wang Shiping raised his thumbs up.

"Look, how promising is this kid? If our family doesn't develop well in the future, it's really unreasonable."

Duan Wuji laughed loudly after hearing this: "Old man, I really love what you say. Just relying on the few words you just said, I would rather support you for the rest of my life."

Duan Yanqing laughed and said, "Hey, when did Wuji become a smooth donkey? Everything goes smoothly when you touch it!"

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Father, see what you said? As the saying goes, you only see muddy feet when you get out of the water. You will know next year."

Duan Yanqing laughed and said: "Okay, Dad is waiting for you, let's see how much money you will earn next year."

Before long, firecrackers sounded outside the house, Duan Wuji laughed and said: "This new year is finally here.

Hey, brother, have our family bought firecrackers yet? "

"I bought it. Small families like them all buy firecrackers. Tell me, can our family not buy them?"

"Since you bought it, let's put it away quickly. I wish our family a prosperous life."

Duan Changsheng stood up, and immediately took out a box of firecrackers from the back room and ran out. Before long, crackling firecrackers sounded in the yard.

After setting off the firecrackers, Duan Wuji stood up and took his new clothes, and said to everyone with a smile: "Father, mother, elder brother, old man, please rest, I'm going back to the yard of the cowshed."

After finishing speaking, Duan Wuji walked out from the yard.

Duan Wuji went back to the courtyard of the cowshed, first practiced fisting and kicking a few times, then danced with a big stick a few times, and then practiced swordsmanship a few times, then went into the house to practice internal strength.

In the morning of the next day, Duan Wuji put on new clothes, entered the house to pay New Year greetings to his parents, and then the family gathered around the table to eat dumplings.

After breakfast, Duan Yanqing led the family straight to Duanjiaji to pay New Year's greetings from house to house. After the New Year's greetings were over, Duan Yanqing led the family back to Third Grandpa's house.

The third grandfather looked at Duan Wuji and said with a smile: "Wuji, you will go out to do business in a few days, I wish you success in business.

Wuji, you are the main one going out this time, you have to take good care of your three brothers, although they are a little older than you, but none of them have traveled far, I am more or less worried . "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Don't worry, Grandpa Sanzu, as long as the elder brothers are willing to listen to me, I will guarantee that they will not make mistakes."

The third grandfather listened and nodded.

"Well, Wuji, I feel relieved with your words.

Wuji, when I come back from business this time, I will treat you first. "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Grandpa Sanzu, you're talking the wrong way. When you come back from business this time, it's only right for Wuji to ask you to be old."

The third grandpa laughed when he heard this.

"Well, Wuji, the third grandpa is waiting to drink your celebration wine, don't let the third grandpa down!"

"How could it be? Grandpa Sanzu, why don't you just look at me."

Everyone chatted for a while, and Duan Yanqing led the family to leave and go home.

Not long after returning home, Duan Changhao, Duan Changhong, and Duan Changqing came to pay New Year's greetings.

Several people paid New Year greetings to Duan Yanqing and his wife, and then sat at the table drinking tea.

Duan Yanqing looked at the three children and said with a smile: "You three don't leave, let's have lunch here today.

Maybe the iron bull will come over in a while. "

The three laughed and said, "That's right, uncle, we brothers are not welcome, uncle, your family's living conditions are really good! Every meal has meat, which is much better than ours." .”

Sure enough, the time was not too long, and the iron bull rode over.

Tieniu rolled off his horse, and when he saw Duan Changhao and the three of them were there.I knew immediately that I was late.

Tieniu immediately knelt down to pay New Year's greetings to Duan Yanqing and his wife.Tie Niu laughed and said, "Uncle, why didn't you see Wuji? Where is my brother?"

"Where can he be? Isn't he practicing martial arts in the yard of the cowshed?"

Tieniu heard this and stood up.

"Brothers, since Wuji is in that yard, let's go find him."

After hearing this, several people stood up immediately, and several young brothers walked straight to the yard of the cowshed.

After entering the yard, Tie Niu shouted loudly: "Brother, are you still practicing? It's Chinese New Year, and you don't want to take a break?"

A few people looked at it, and saw that the yard was quiet and there was no movement at all. Tieniu waved his hand when he saw it, and led the three little brothers to the house where they lived before.

When I entered the room, I saw that Duan Wuji was meditating and practicing, and that Duan Wuji was sitting on the kang and didn't know what kind of kung fu he was practicing.

When everyone looked at it, they saw that Duan Wuji's head had a layer of white mist half a foot thick.

Duan Wuji had a half-smile smile on his face, as if he had entered a state of epiphany.

After a long time, that Duan Wuji exhaled a foul breath.

Duan Wuji opened his eyes, looked at everyone and said: "Brothers, you have come here long ago!

Let's go, let's go to eat, after dinner, let's practice martial arts.

Everyone laughed.

"Okay, let's make a deal like this, let's go, let's go eat."
