How did I, a mere son-in-law lying down, become a "Fenglang Juxu" (a legendary martial art

Li Wanqing left in anger, and Liu Shanxin's fourth point, which he had been thinking about, was also shelved.

It wasn't that Li Wanqing was heartless, but rather that she was also poor. Li Polu only gave her twenty taels of silver a month to spend, so naturally she couldn't share any more with Liu Shan.

Seeing her master leave in anger, Amber was also a little annoyed, but she was just a little maid after all, and dared not show any displeasure or say anything harsh to Liu Shan. She could only pout and call out, "Young Master."

Amber is young and innocent; she's clearly a lovable girl.

Liu Shan gently pinched Amber's round little face and said, half-complaining and half-jokingly, "Your young lady really needs to change her temperament."

Amber broke free from the clutches and snorted coldly, "Miss has the best temperament, there's no need to change it."

Liu Shan's eyes widened as she pointed at the weapons on the wedding bed. "She's so kind? She won't let her husband into the bed on their wedding night, and she even keeps her waist knife under her body while sleeping. Is that how you protect your husband? Or is it that I'm just a beast in her eyes?"

Amber blushed deeply, not knowing how to answer, and could only whisper, "Aunt...Master, I'll take you to serve tea."

Liu Shan never engages in mental strife; he simply goes crazy when something's wrong. But he also knows that saying these things to Amber is pointless.

He stood up, casually flicked his sleeves twice, and said in a light tone, "Come on, let's go serve tea, maybe we can get a tip!"

Seeing this, Amber finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Master likes the son-in-law, so he will definitely give him more money."

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!" Liu Shan immediately perked up.

The moment he pushed open the door, Liu Shan was stunned. He had never imagined that he would be able to experience such a rustic garden landscape.

Above is the azure sky, below is the earthly spirit; the wondrous scene before my eyes defies description.

The clouds parted, the sun shone brightly, and golden light filled the sky; the wind carried the fragrance of flowers, and birds sang sweetly.

He instinctively closed his eyes, opened his arms, and tried to feel this new world with his heart, to savor this new era with his breath, and to hear the insults coming from outside the Li residence.

"Liu Shan, you beast!"

"Liu Shan, come out and face your death!"

"Let go of Li Wanqing, let me handle this!"

"Bullshit! Wanqing is mine!"

"I heard from my brother-in-law's second aunt's granddaughter-in-law's old flame that Wanqing's marriage was a sham; they didn't consummate the marriage, and she's living like a widow!"

The shouting outside the mansion puzzled Liu Shan. He looked at Amber and asked, "Didn't we have a commotion last night? Why is there still someone making a scene now?"

"Last night, it was all the sons of military officers who were causing trouble, and they were all chased away by Miss. Now, those causing trouble outside the mansion are all famous scholars, and Miss is helpless as well," Amber muttered helplessly.

Liu Shan pulled Amber back into the room, wrote a line, handed the paper to the maid, and said, "Tell those talented men outside the mansion that this is Wanqing's first couplet. They can only see the question if they pay two taels of silver. Those who can match it can continue, and those who can't, get out of here."

Amber glanced at the paper and saw seven characters scrawled on it.

Despite her young age and status as a maid, she had been by Li Wanqing's side all along and had learned quite a few characters from her mistress through constant exposure.

She happened to recognize the line Liu Shan wrote: “Mice, regardless of size, are all called old.”

After thinking for a moment, Liu Shan wrote down another line: "This is the second couplet. The talented scholar who can match the first couplet shall pay three taels of silver to see the question. If he can match it, continue; if he can't, get lost."

Amber frowned, trying hard to recognize it, and finally said slowly, "The lotus bud in the pond is clenching its red fist, which one is it hitting?"

Immediately afterwards, Liu Shan wrote the third line: "If Heaven had feelings, it too would grow old."

Before Liu Shan could continue, Amber excitedly interjected, "This is the third couplet. Whoever can match the first two, pay five taels of silver to see the question? If you can match it, you can see the young lady; if you can't, get lost!"

However, Liu Shan shook his head, "The talented scholar who can match this third couplet may enter the mansion, while the talented scholar who cannot match it may leave with ten taels of silver."

Amber paused for a moment, then asked, "Young Master, doesn't this mean we'll earn far less money?"

Liu Shan shook his head and smiled, "Those who can match the first two couplets are truly talented people. I don't make money off such people."

Amber didn't understand why her son-in-law would do this; she was just a little worried, "What if someone really manages to come up with three matching couplets...?"

Liu Shan was completely amused by the little girl's naiveté. These were absolute questions that had stumped scholars and writers for hundreds of years; how could they be so easily answered?!

Moreover, those shouting and cursing outside the mansion are just a bunch of immature kids. If they can even come up with a couplet, it's a miracle that their ancestors' graves are emitting auspicious smoke.

Can you match all three couplets perfectly? Are you prepared for your ancestral graves to turn to ashes?

……

In the warm spring of March, all things revive and flourish with vitality.

A gentle spring breeze, carrying a touch of coolness and moisture, shines through the tender green treetops, casting dappled shadows that resemble a golden veil covering the ground, dazzling and captivating.

After the tea ceremony, it was free time.

Full of anger, Li Wanqing went straight to the training ground and selected several female soldiers to compete in archery.

The female soldiers' archery skills were naturally excellent; although not every arrow hit the bullseye, they consistently scored above eight rings.

However, to appease the young lady, the female soldiers deliberately shot slightly off-center.

Li Wanqing has practiced martial arts since childhood. Although she has never been tempered on the battlefield, her basic skills are still very solid. If she doesn't make a mistake, every arrow will be above the seventh ring.

Three arrows make up a round, three rounds make up a game, and the best-of-three format is used.

After two rounds, the female soldiers knelt on one knee and said, "Miss is mighty, we are completely defeated."

Li Wan tidied her slightly messy hair and smiled, "I know you guys held back, otherwise I wouldn't have won so easily."

After winning the match, Li Wanqing felt much better.

When she was in a better mood, her appetite returned, and she suddenly remembered that she had gotten up in a hurry that morning and hadn't eaten yet.

After instructing the female soldiers to practice archery diligently, Li Wanqing strode towards the exit of the training ground.

To her surprise, she ran into Liu Shan.

At this moment, Liu Shan was staring intently at the tender leaves above his head.

He slowly wiggled his joints, trying to keep his breathing steady, his gaze firm as he looked straight up, muttering to himself, "Liu Shan, if you can touch that leaf, you'll be amazing."

Li Wanqing was surprised. Why did she have to go through so much foreplay when it was just touching a leaf?

Moreover, the leaves are so short that they are easy to reach.

Suddenly, Liu Shan took a running start, jumped, and waved his hand...

I didn't touch it!

Liu Shan: "囧_囧!"

He adjusted his breathing, took a running start, and jumped with all his might... He was so close!

Li Wanqing watched helplessly as Liu Shan roared and jumped around like a monkey, speechless for a moment.

At this moment, Liu Shan noticed Li Wanqing standing not far away.

After staring at each other for a while, he realized that Li Wanqing had seen everything that had just happened.

Liu Shan was extremely embarrassed and almost dug out a three-bedroom apartment on the spot.
