In fact, everyone's eyes were mostly fixed on the merit box, but they didn't pay much attention to Xia Xiaodong, the destined person.
No matter who you are, it's not me anyway.
However, with such an example of getting a big package by putting in small money, and hoping that they would also be lucky, many people increased the number and amount of coins they put in, so much so that Elder Xuanyuan Dao was inspired to put in the merit box.
If such a mechanism is actually installed, that's a story for another day.
"What is it?"
After getting on the Lu family's carriage, Lu Yunzhi snatched the package, touched and pinched it, and felt it was soft and slippery.
For a moment, he couldn't guess what it was, and the package was sealed very tightly.
There were no knives, scissors, etc. in the car, so I couldn't open it.
Lu Yunzhi returned it to Xia Xiaodong angrily: "Forget it, I won't read it anymore.
I guess some passionate seed found some way to give it to you, so just keep it."
Unexpectedly, Lu Yunzhi got it right right away.
When she returned to the Lu family mansion, Qiujuan took action and spent a long time to open the package outside.
Xia Xiaodong took a look and saw that there was actually a quilt inside.
Leopard skin quilt.
Judging from the size, the quilt should be made of the entire middle part of two leopard skins.
What is rare is that the patterns on it are so natural that it is almost impossible to tell that they are two pieces.
Looking more closely, the original leopard skin limbs were sewn into a thick muff and rolled up inside the quilt.
Who gave this to me?
Several maids gathered around the quilt to study it.
Xia Xiaodong took the muff and put his hands in it to try it out.
This muff was actually made of leopard skin both inside and outside.
After a while, I felt very warm and comfortable.
Xia Xiaodong moved his hands inside, and suddenly felt that there was a place that was a little bit painful.
After groping for it, he found that it was a buckle pin.
Of course the pin is fastened properly, otherwise I wouldn't have pricked my hand.
Xia Xiaodong held the button in his hand and hid it secretly.
I don't want the maids to see it.
After taking a quick look, the corners of Xia Xiaodong's mouth suddenly turned up.
The style of the buckle pin is very simple, with only a tiger soul the size of the belly of your little finger embedded in one end.
It has the same color as the strange flower tiger soul from before.

Hurry up and take our Xiaodong back.
In front of Gu Si, there is also a muff sewn by his wife, and he is slowly walking home with his hands swaying.
Home, that is, the backyard of Muzhaotang.
Gusi's family lives in Muzhaotang.
There is a shop in the front and a living space in the back, with the yard in the middle being used for work.
This is the pattern in this area.
After walking a few steps, he looked back.
The man in the short coat behind him had a coarse cloth on his shoulders, carrying half a piece of pork, and a large bag of mushrooms, fungus, vermicelli, peanuts, maltose, etc. in his hand.
He was walking huffing and puffing, and he looked around. , hurriedly caught up two steps, and greeted Gu Si with a smile: "I saw your boss wandering under the bridge half a while ago, do you still want to hire a day laborer?
My junior can now work, and I can try it out after the new year."
Try it or not" Under the bridge actually refers to the two ends of a stone arch bridge not far away.
Because part-time workers often gather here and wait for people to come to hire them, it can be regarded as a natural labor market in the Tianbei Street area.
Most of the day laborers who were still hanging around under the bridge on the 29th of the year would be willing to come early to start work after the new year, so Gu Si asked his eldest son to go over and have a look, find a good person first, and start working on the third day of junior high, so as not to be blinded by then.

"Your little four" Gu Si is quite sensitive to Si, and asked: "How old is he this year?"
"It's eleven."
Feeling that there might be a way, the man took two more steps forward: "If you think you are too young to be a part-time worker, I can be your apprentice."
Most of those who work part-time are young and strong.
Work for a day, pay for a day.
Moreover, wages are based on market conditions and are basically fixed.
Therefore, the owners are not willing to pay the same price for those who are too young or too old, and the jobs they can do are different.
Being an apprentice is very different.
Apprentices are generally teenagers aged ten to twelve years old.
They are responsible for food and housing but do not need to pay wages.
Not only do they not need to pay wages, sometimes the apprentice's family also pays for the apprenticeship in return.
People in this area naturally know Gusi’s craftsmanship, but firstly, Gusi has a son, and secondly, Muzhaotang’s business is deteriorating, which makes people inevitably worry that their children will be sent there, and they don’t know what the future will be like, so they are keen on There are very few people who serve as apprentices to Gu Si.
But things are different now.
Ever since Mu Zhaotang changed its owner, the business has become more and more prosperous in the blink of an eye.
This man has the idea of sending his fourth son here.
There's nothing I can do about it, I'm a poor man living in poverty.
He is at the age where he can eat.
Instead of sending him out to be an apprentice, let him stay at home and chew on the youngest.
Gu Si thought about it for a while, and probably thought that the fourth boy from that family was okay, so he nodded and said: "I've been very busy recently, and work will start on the third grade of junior high school.
You ask him to come over at that time and help out first.
If he is really a dexterous person, Yes, come back to Li Zheng to sign the deed after the first month.”
It means a trial period of one month.
The man was immediately overjoyed and his feet felt a little lighter.
When the things were delivered, he refused to accept the money from Gu Sijiao, and ran home to tell his wife the good news.
Gu Si looked at the pile of New Year's goods piled at the back door and almost didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
It doesn't matter whether you take the money or not, but help me take it in.
Everything else is easy to say.
This half of pork can't be dragged away at all.
With his hands full, he took in the small New Year's goods.
Seeing that his son hadn't come back yet, Gu Si had to ask his wife to help.
Gu Si's daughter-in-law works as a cook in a wealthy family's house, and only comes back once every ten days and a half.
Today, the host family generously gave her a day off, and she will go back to cook New Year's Eve dinner tomorrow on New Year's Eve.
Hearing Gu Si shouting outside, he quickly came out.
Hearing that they were moving pork, he picked up a boning knife.
"Just tear it apart if you can't handle it."
Gu Si's daughter-in-law neatly divided the half of the pork into two large pieces, while scolding: "Why don't you think about anything without the wood?
Is it possible that every time you take the wood, you Did you carry it back whole?
Why did you replace the wood with pork?
You are stupid."
Gu Si just laughed, picked up a large piece of pork that his wife had divided, and walked inside.
The wife is always right, and any man who talks back to his wife is a fool.
Gu Si's wife was also used to talking quickly.
Seeing that Gu Si had run away, she smiled from behind and continued to divide the rest into two pieces.
However, there are only a few steps in total.
Why did this guy go in and not come out for a long time?

Gu Si's wife angrily picked up a quarter of a half slice of pork in one hand, still holding the boning knife in the other hand, ready to go in and teach Gu Si a lesson.
However, the yard was quiet.
The pork that Gu Si brought in was placed on the wooden shelf, but no one was there.
In the front shop, the sound of voices could be heard faintly
