He is from the end of the world

"What do you mean?" Lin Chi was startled by him.

Lu Ciyu was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that there seems to be no such thing as a relationship here?

In ancient times, it was almost always the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker.The relatives and elders of the two families agreed with each other and directly settled the marriage. How many people entered the bridal chamber and took off their heads before seeing each other for the first time.There has been no cultural change/revolution in this dynasty, such as private communication and cultivating feelings, so Lin Chi naturally doesn't understand.

Lu Ciyu struggled for a while: "That's... we can try it... If both parties are satisfied, we can get married..."

Ahhhhhh the Chinese language is so broad and profound that there is no word that can express his mood at the moment!

Ah, ah, why did he blurt out in a flash of his brain just now! !

Lin Chi froze in place, lowered his head, remained silent for a long time before replying in a low voice: "Yes."

He also knew how shocking Lu Ciyu's words were.Once an outsider finds out, even if Lu Ciyu does marry him in the future, he will not be able to take off this hat of unruly and immoral.But for some reason, Lin Chi just couldn't bear to refuse.

It's good to spend more time together.

If anyone finds out... he'll throw himself into the river.

It must not affect the reputation of the village and Lu Ciyu.This dynasty attached great importance to morality. Once something was reported, every single married and unmarried woman in the village would be affected. His selfishness had no reason to make others pay for it.

Lu Ciyu didn't know that the matter would be so serious, so he suppressed his joy and looked at Lin Chi, never expecting that the other party had a smile on his face, but his eyes were full of worry and uneasiness.

It was as if Lu Ciyu had been poured with cold water in an instant, and he had traveled from a warm spring day to a bitter winter in an instant—is it so unwilling to associate with him?Is it because there is something hidden that you are forced to agree?

The old doctor outside the house saw that someone entered the house and did not come out for a long time, he was a little anxious to wait, and called his name several times.Lu Ciyu hurriedly answered, explained something to Lin Chi, and walked out of the room restlessly holding the scissors.

Lizheng and the old doctor were sitting in front of the stone table in the house, and tied up a large pile of herbs on the table. In a few days, it would be the day of the big market in the town, and the old doctor would take these herbs to the medicine shop in the town to sell.

Seeing Lu Ciyu coming over, he said casually, "Boy Lu, don't give us gifts these few days, hunt more prey and stock up, and then we will go to the town to sell them together."

Lu Ciyu nodded and said yes, his mind was still on Lin Chi's place, and he hadn't recovered yet.

"Also, someone visited my house yesterday. He happened to see the pheasant you shot and asked me who caught it. Yuan Liehu in the village broke his leg on the mountain last year. No one in Yangning Village went hunting on the mountain. The villagers only You can go up the mountain to find it yourself or ask hunters from other villages."

"He wanted to buy some prey from you, so I suddenly thought about it."

"Boy Lu can hunt prey and sell it in the village, and he can also use this opportunity to recognize more people in the village and help the village."

When he asked him to help the village, Lu Ciyu understood Li Zheng's intentions in his heart, and Li Zheng was clearly helping him.

Firstly, it will allow him to earn more money and save it as a spare; secondly, it will allow him to take this opportunity to get acquainted with the villagers so that he can better integrate into the village; thirdly... this is Lu Ciyu's own little idea .

A person's personality is reflected in all aspects. It may seem like a trivial matter of selling wild things, but in fact, everyone's character can be clearly explored.

Who is greedy for petty gains, who cares about every detail, who is short-sighted, and who is frank and honest... These will all be clearly displayed in front of him.Write it down now, and you will know it when you need to find someone to help you do business in the future.

This is a deal that will not lose money no matter what, so Lu Ciyu will naturally not refuse.

"Ciyu thanked Uncle Lizheng. But Ciyu won't be hunting for too long, and will do some business after she settles down."

Li Zheng nodded: "Going up the mountain to hunt is not a long-term solution. Others will forget it. Your physique is really worrying. It's better to settle down sooner."

"However, to do business, you must become a citizen of the city. Scholars, farmers, businessmen, and merchants are the cheapest. Boy Lu thinks about it."

Lu Ciyu frowned: "To tell you the truth, Uncle Lizheng, I'm also hesitating about this question."

In the five books of ancient times, noble and good merchants and slaves were cheap.You can't escape the four words of rank and rank, even if you are a merchant on the wealthy side, according to the law, you will be inferior to the most insignificant officials.Of course, this is just a rule. In fact, it is not a lie that money can turn ghosts around. If you have money in your hand, you are an uncle.

However, the imperial court imposed great restrictions on city registration, and various regulations and laws made people breathless.Moreover, unlike other nationalities, it is difficult to get out of the municipality.In ancient times, some dynasties even stipulated that the descendants of merchants could only be merchants for generations like their parents, and some dynasties stipulated that the descendants of merchants were not allowed to take imperial examinations and so on.

Lu Ciyu didn't know the specific regulations of this dynasty, so he couldn't ask Li Zheng such a common-sense question, and he was afraid that he would regret it in the future if he decided on a household registration rashly.

"Boy Lu has studied, don't you plan to go this way again?"

Lu Ciyu shook his head: "I know what I am capable of. I can read and read well, but it's really difficult for me to really learn. But if there is a chance, it would be good to be a scholar."

Li Zheng nodded, in his heart he still hoped that Lu Ciyu could continue to take the exam, but it was still the same sentence, he didn't want to, no matter how others persuaded him, it was useless.

He didn't know why, he hadn't even seen Lu Ciyu's knowledge before, and he had an inexplicable belief in his heart that Lu Ciyu would pass the exam, and he didn't know where the confidence came from.

Lu Ciyu's plan to obtain fame was planned early in the morning.Scholars in this dynasty had a very high status, and there was an exclusive channel to enter the city with tax reductions and exemptions. Leaving aside various benefits such as subsidies issued by the imperial court during the New Year and holidays, what Lu Ciyu valued most was the fact that he would not kneel when he saw an official because of his fame.

Young Master Lu has been cool and domineering all his life, even in the chaotic environment of the end of the world, he still lives like a grandpa. There is no reason to travel to ancient times with such thick gold fingers, but to kneel down and pretend to be a grandson.

The development of history has similarities and inevitability, and this dynasty is no exception.As long as you can grasp the main points of the law, there is no reason why a scholar can't pass the exam.Of course, I also want to thank that there is no stereotyped essay in this dynasty, and reciting poems and prose is not a problem that will be involved in the fame of a scholar.

It's not difficult to be a scholar based on young master Lu's educational level, but it will be troublesome if you go up to take the provincial examination.It's not that he can't pass the exam, Lu Ciyu has no plans to become an official in the court at all.Rather than being a minister who is always worried about being beheaded by the emperor, he wants to be an ordinary landlord.

The person he had followed to secretly learn scholar etiquette was an official from the county school.While he was sleeping, Lu Ciyu secretly flipped through the previous test papers. Some of them looked like major questions about history, politics and geography in the college entrance examination.

It was nothing to him to contrive such a thing.Lu Ciyu, a master of science, took this elective course for one semester when he was in college. He understood more or less, so he wouldn't be at a loss and didn't know where to start, but it was a bit difficult for liberal arts.

But there are several x-year college entrance examination x-year simulations in his space, these should be enough...

When I was fleeing, I thought that books are the carrier of human knowledge, so I took one after another when I saw it, and I didn’t have time to carefully read what was written.As a result, when sorting out, I found that there are all kinds of miscellaneous...

But thanks to these books, the things recorded in them are the biggest reliance for his development in this world.

Settle down and buy land, test your fame, start a business and buy a house, and then get married.

Lin Chi's attitude made him puzzled.

Everyone in the last days is a movie king, and children as young as they are are no exception.Similarly, everyone has developed a pair of piercing eyes.

Eyes can't hide anything, Lin Chi likes him a little bit, but why is he so disturbed?

Seeing him absent-minded, Li Zheng knocked a green onion on his head: "What's wrong with Lu boy today?"

Lu Ciyu hesitated for a moment, then asked in a low voice: "Uncle, what kind of person is Brother Chi?"

Li Zheng was silent for a while: "Very strong, but also able to endure hardships, he is a person who is very considerate of others."

Lu Ciyu nodded, pondered for a while, then changed the topic.

"An ordinary brother or girl, should you find your husband's family on the [-]th or [-]th?"

Lizheng sighed: "Isn't it."

"It's not like there were no matchmakers in the past. Brother Chi found a matchmaker and came to propose marriage, but his second aunt rejected every one of them. Those who come and go have been delayed until now, and the child is gone."

Lu Ciyu continued to nod. , Eighteen is an adult.If Lu Ciyu were to marry a child of the [-]th or [-]th year, his own conscience would not let it go.

If Lin Chi fails to marry again this year, he will be assigned by the government.

Rizheng's lips twitched a few times, but he still couldn't get the words out.

Saying this in front of people, isn't it forcing Lu Ciyu to marry Lin Chi...but Lin Chi...he can't just watch this child fall into the fire pit...

The typical male-female ratio in this era is unbalanced. If a girl or a brother wants not to marry, the government will be the first to come to her door and force her name card to be placed on the sedan chair. Not marrying is a violation of court regulations.

The court has no choice.In the early years, he fought many battles with the frontier tribes, and the number of recruits dropped sharply year after year. In some villages, even all the men died on the battlefield. Only old men and young children remained in the village.

In order to increase the number of newborns, the government has promulgated many regulations, and official matching is one of them.However, the official match is usually not allocated to any good family, usually a widower or a prisoner with a criminal record. After all, how can a good man fail to marry a wife and let the government worry about it.

Li Zheng and Aunt Hui had been worrying about Lu Ciyu and Lin Chi all day long, and they had several blisters in their mouths.Lu Ciyu didn't know this, so he took a fruit picked from the mountain, washed it, and handed it to Li Zheng.

Li was thinking about something in his heart, and didn't care what he gave, so he took a bite.

His mouth was sour and gritty, he grinned his teeth in pain and couldn't speak.

It's such a rough day.
