Quick travel: I am bound by the longevity system
Chapter 249 Leading the tribe to survive in troubled times 12
"Mom, I'm back." Lin Jiu walked in carrying a rabbit. Seeing a lot of cloth and cakes placed on the table, I was a little surprised, "Mom, who sent these things?"
"It was sent by General Qi and the Sixth Young Master in person. General Qi revealed that he wants to marry you on behalf of the Sixth Young Master. If you are willing, then you two will get engaged as soon as possible. If not, then come in front of your family friends. Let's socialize." Mother Lin said while packing her things.
"Mom, I'm only ten years old now. I'm still young. I don't want to get married so early." Lin Jiu said while taking care of the rabbit.
"It's not like we're getting married now, we're just making a decision first. You also said that you are ten years old now, so it's time for us to see each other? Originally, I was thinking about what kind of in-laws I should find for you because you are so independent, but Today, Mingjing's child promised me that after you get married to him, he will support you in doing what you want to do, and will not use etiquette to restrict you. I also think it would be good for you and Mingjing to get married. "
"Mom likes him very much?"
"Well, this child is good-looking, don't you like it?" Mother Lin knew that her daughter was also good-looking.
"I like it." Lin Jiu nodded.
"If you agree, I will tell the clan leader tomorrow to formalize your affairs. Then you should not go into the mountains anymore. It is important to learn needlework from me."
"Mom, there's no need for needlework! Look, my hands are not needlework hands." Lin Jiu raised his hand and laughed at himself.
Lin Jiu's needlework was okay, but she couldn't stand up to the original owner's hand.
"You don't know how to study. When you get married in the future, even if you can buy outerwear, you and your husband-in-law's intimate clothes can't be left to others to make!" Mother Lin glanced at Lin Jiu.
"Okay, okay, I'll learn. Isn't it okay if I learn?"
Seeing that Lin Jiu agreed, Mother Lin asked the clan leader to tell Qi Mingjing. When Qi Mingjing found out, she ran directly to Linjia Village.
"Ajiu." Qi Mingjing directly hugged Lin Jiu into her arms, "You are willing to marry me."
"It's just an engagement first. I'm only ten years old now. How many years will it take to get married?"
"Then I have to occupy my title first, so as not to be coveted by others." Qi Mingjing smiled, "Five years, we can get married in five years."
After the winter solstice, the two families chose an auspicious day to get engaged, and the two parties exchanged tokens.
"Ajiu, this bracelet was left to me by my aunt. Now I will put it on your hand." Qi Mingjing put a silver bracelet on Lin Jiu's hand.
"I will keep it well." Lin Jiu took out another jade pendant and hung it on Qi Mingjing's body. I carved this jade pendant myself. You must wear it well.
Qi Mingjing rubbed the jade pendant with her fingers, her eyes full of smiles.
After the two got engaged, they began to interact normally.
The imperial court's rewards for the Qi family's army were also officially announced. Qi Xiuwen was promoted to Marshal of Dingbei and Qi Xiuwu to General Weiyuan. The other officers and soldiers were also promoted to official positions and were rewarded with some silk ornaments of little use.
In addition to official positions, the people who announced the decree also brought many women over, saying that the soldiers were working hard at the border. These were the officials who cared about everyone and gave them to the soldiers to serve them.
Qi Xiuwen kept two for himself and distributed the others to other soldiers.
During this period, the angel naturally mentioned Qi Mingjing's marriage, but Qi Xiuwen said that the eminent monk had given Qi Mingjing instructions, saying that Qi Mingjing's marriage was destined by fate, and that forcibly marrying another person would be harmful to both parties, and in serious cases, Bring harm to both families.
Emperor Jiayou naturally didn't believe Qi Xiuwen's words. After thinking about it, he thought of telling Qi Mingjing about Lin Xiang's little daughter.
Unexpectedly, Emperor Jiayou had just invited Lin Xiang into the palace to talk about this matter, and Lin Xiang's little daughter fell into the water and almost died.
Emperor Jiayou recruited several officials who had girls of the same age in their families and mentioned that they would marry Liu Lang of the Qi family. However, without exception, these girls were fine and suddenly had accidents.
At this time, rumors about Qi Mingjing's destined marriage were spreading, and the capital was trying to avoid it. Only then did Emperor Jiayou send word that he would marry Qi Mingjing.
Qi Xiuwen breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that Emperor Jiayou no longer mentioned granting a marriage to Qi Mingjing. Now that the seven states of Yan had just been taken back, there were still many things waiting for him to arrange, and he really didn't have that much energy to follow. The court battled wits and courage.
After the beginning of spring, everything revives, and Linjia Village begins to be busy with spring plowing.
Zhending Mansion is located in the North China Plain, where winter wheat is grown. After the ice and snow melted, part of the snow water flowed into the pond built years ago, and the rest seeped into the ground.
In the past, the Hu people cleared away a lot of ownerless fields in the valley. In addition, Linjia Village was now classified as a military household, so the fields they cultivated were several times larger than before.
Lin Boda looked at the extra fields with joy and sadness, "Hey! I used to always want to have more fields, more fields, but now there is more land, but we can't plant it. Seeing that this good land is wasted here. , I feel uncomfortable."
"Grandpa, it's better to cut out the isolation zone first and burn the weeds! If we weed by hand, we may not be able to get rid of all the weeds by summer."
"Okay, let's cut the isolation zone first. You and these boys can chop some bamboo and tie up some fire tools, and then we can burn the wasteland at night."
The land that Lin Jiu and the others now occupy was originally occupied by the Liao people and was only taken back at the end of last year. Since the Liao people did not plant crops, the land was covered with weeds.
At night, the whole village came out to burn the wasteland. Everyone had a handy fire-making tool in their hands. When the fire started to get hot, they used the tools in their hands to make the fire smaller.
Lin Jiu and his village were allocated a total of 3,000 acres of land based on headcount. The entire village set out to burn these 3,000 acres of land, which lasted for nearly ten days.
At this time, the curved shaft plow that Lin Jiu asked the blacksmith to help with was also ready. Together with the two retired horses found from Qi Mingjing, Lin Jiu and the others finally reclaimed their mission land.
"Grandpa, do you know what this is? I found it in the mountains today." Lin Jiu found Lin Boda with a basket of corn.
"I have lived for most of my life and have never seen this thing. How did you discover it?" Lin Boda weighed the corn in his hand. It was heavy, weighing at least half a catty each.
"When I went to bed last night, I dreamed of the ancestor who called me capable! He told me to go directly into the mountain after waking up this morning. If I see two golden roosters with golden hair, don't disturb them and just follow the roosters. They will lead me to find good things. In the morning, I followed the direction my ancestor said and found two golden roosters. Then they walked to a mountain col and disappeared. However, I found this in the mountain col. Grandpa, what do you think? Is this the good thing our ancestors said?"
