Quick travel: I am bound by the longevity system

Lu Rui knew what Lin Jiu was determined to do and would not change it no matter what he said, so he finally agreed with Lin Jiu to return to Jianing and let his eldest son, the prince Lu Yi, escort him.

Less than two months after Lin Jiu returned to Jianing, Lu Jin threw the tiger talisman in front of Lu Rui on the grounds that he was too old to lead troops, and rode a fast horse directly to Jianing, fearing that he would be late. After taking one step forward, Lu Rui left him in the capital.

As soon as Lin Jiu arrived in Jianing, Lu Jing chased after her. He knew clearly that she was not the original owner and had not talked about getting a wife in these years. Lin Jiu didn't know what he was obsessed with.

"I have met the Queen Mother." Lu Zhen was respectful and polite to Lin Jiu.

"Why bother!" Lin Jiu sighed slightly.

Lu Jin didn't speak, just looked at Lin Jiu quietly, but Lin Jiu knew that Lu Jin's eyes were not looking at her.

Seeing this, Lin Jiu knew that Lu Zhen had a sense of propriety, so she went with him.

Back in Jianing, Lin Jiu offered incense to Aunt Lin and Lu Qi, and then settled in the Lu family's old house. The Lu family and Lin family who stayed in Jianing heard that Lin Jiu had returned to the Lu family's old house, and they all Lin Jiu came to visit, and after meeting a few people at first, he became very annoyed. Originally, he wanted to go back to Jianing to be clean, but it turned out to be even more complicated than in the capital.

"Grandma, don't you want to retire in Jianing? Why do you want to go back to Beijing again?"

Lu Yi looked at Lin Jiu puzzled.

"I took it for granted before, thinking about retiring in Jianing, but I never thought about the burden it would cause to the local people. Look at Mr. Liu, he is frightened all day long, but in January, he has a few more white hairs. If you wait a little longer, you won't be completely white again." Lin Jiu said half-jokingly.

"But Yi'er, we won't go back to the capital this time. Grandma will take you around. While you are still young, you can see more of the world outside the imperial city. Otherwise, you won't have time to go there even if you want to. Saw it."

Lin Jiu asked the person who was serving on the surface to continue returning to Beijing, while she took Lu Yi to disguise herself and go around to observe the public sentiment. Lin Jiu did not throw away the secret guards, and these secret guards would not appear as long as their master was not in danger.

"Grandma, why have you prepared the road guide?"

"Since we are going out, we naturally need road signs. I asked your Uncle Lu to find Xiao Liu to drive these road signs when I left Jianing."

"Come on, the girls from Shen Dafu's family are going to throw hydrangeas at the Marriage Building to choose a husband! Everyone, go and have a look."

"This old man, I just heard what you said about throwing hydrangeas to choose a son-in-law. What's going on?" Lu Yi curiously pulled an old man running forward.

"You are from out of town!"

"Xiao Ke is from Sichuan. He is about to go to Beijing to study with his grandmother. He is passing through your land here. I asked my old man to help Xiao Ke clarify his doubts." Lu Yi smiled and bowed to the old man.

"You have a good life, the old lady is so lucky."

"No, no, the child has no other merits but filial piety. His parents are not around me. When the child heard that I wanted to travel around, he took me, an old man, to travel around and learn more."

"Not to mention anything else, filial piety alone is a great advantage." The old man said cheerfully, "In our local area, there is a custom called heaven-hitting marriage."

"Marriage in heaven?"

"Yes, a marriage in heaven. It is said that many years ago, there were two wealthy families here. The ancestors of these two wealthy families were originally a pair of senior brothers. Later, I don't know why they became enemies. I don't know how many years later, these two families became enemies. A pair of young children looked at each other, but their families refused to agree to the marriage no matter what.

The youngest son and daughter were lovesick, and both children were about to become terminally ill. However, one side had the ancestral precepts, and the other side had the fate of the children. In the end, both parties told the two of them that a good match has been destined since ancient times. Is there anything between you two? Marriage depends on whether God is willing to fulfill it.

So the two families built such a marriage building and let the girls throw hydrangeas upstairs. As long as the man could catch the hydrangeas thrown by the girl downstairs, it would prove that the two were destined to be married, and then they would go home and change the relationship. This is the ancestral precept that two families should not intermarry with each other. "

"Did that young man catch the hydrangea?"

"Of course I took it. Not only that, these two people were filial to their parents-in-law after marriage and loved each other. Even the hatred between the two families was resolved. From then on, if our girl's chosen husband is not approved by her parents, she will be married. Throw the hydrangeas on the floor and let God decide. I won't tell you anymore, I'm going to watch the fun."

"Grandma, how about we go and watch too?" Lu Yi obviously also wanted to watch the fun.

"Go to the restaurant and find a private room. We'll watch it upstairs. Even though you're not married, you can't just join in the fun."

"Grandson understands."

As expected, many people gathered in front of the Marriage Building. When the hour was approaching, they saw the girl from the Shen family standing upstairs wearing red clothes and holding a red hydrangea. The girl from the Shen family looked downstairs and seemed to see the person she was waiting for. Then throw the hydrangea directly towards the person.

However, at this moment, something unexpected happened. A beggar suddenly rushed in and caught the hydrangea.

"The hydrangeas don't count this time." A slightly wealthy middle-aged man snatched the hydrangea from the beggar's hand.

"Sit tight and watch carefully." Lin Jiu saw Lu Yi looking at Shen Dafu dissatisfied and turning around to go downstairs, so she pushed him down on the chair.

"Mr. Shen, why do you deny this marriage?" A woman rushed out from the crowd.

"Why? Just because he violated the rules of the Marriage Building." Shen Dafu sneered, "Besides, the Chinese household law stipulates that the poor and the lowly cannot marry, and the common people cannot marry. Why, Mr. Liu is trying to break the law."

"Shen Dafu, don't bully young people into poverty. Brother Liu will become a prosperous person one day."

"Since Madam Xie thinks that Mr. Liu will become a successful man, why don't you marry him yourself? Mr. Liu will surely be rich and honorable, so don't forget us." Shen Dafu sneered, turned around and walked into the marriage building with the hydrangea in his arms.

"Grandma, my grandson doesn't understand. Isn't this going back on his word?" Lu Yi didn't know why Lin Jiu wanted to stop him from coming forward.

"Would you let your sister or daughter marry a beggar?"

"Grandma, your grandson is not married yet? Where can I find a daughter? But if I have a daughter, I will naturally choose the best husband for her."

"Then let me ask you another question. You and I have traveled to several cities. Have you seen such young beggars along the way?"

"No." Lu Yi shook his head.

"Think again, if Shen Dafu did something wrong today, why didn't anyone below blame him? You must know that throwing embroidery balls to hit the sky is a local custom, and customs are difficult to break. Since these people didn't blame Shen Dafu today, Dafu, that means that the man named Liu violated the local regulations on grabbing hydrangeas, and they approved of Shen Dafu's behavior."
