Good Life in Qin Dynasty
Chapter 164
"Then you can't be bullied!" Li Jiyang was very angry. Although his own people had just received under the wings, but because of this, they couldn't be bullied. Can't deal with a civilian?
"They're going to give that girl another family tomorrow, and then it really has nothing to do with us." Yang Feiying smiled wryly: "It's such a mess. If I had known their family was like that, I wouldn't have thought about it at all." Will agree!"
It turned out that the family had eight older brothers and one daughter who were extremely precious. They were all adults, and after each family and career, they immediately separated. The family had only one adult labor force, so they couldn't serve in the military.
Most of the men in the Qin State joined the army and fought hard on the battlefield. Of course, some people like to join the army and fight with their lives, while others are farming at home. In this family, all eight sons are farming at home. After the son became an adult and separated, there were eight families, including his own family, nine families. Their family name was Wang, so it was called Wangjia Village.
It is also in the outskirts of Xianyang, but it is much closer to Xianyang city than Lijiazhuang. It is behind a hill outside the north gate.
Since the girl was 13 years old, they used this method to help many people, and the life of the family became more and more prosperous. This thing comes with fast money and a lot of good things.
Everyone in that area knows, so the girls are all eighteen, and they haven't married yet. In the Qin Dynasty, menarche usually occurs at the age of 13, and they can marry at the age of 15. Two or three years later, when Ji Ji got married, "Then we'll go and bring back the bride price tomorrow!" Li Jiyang snorted angrily.
"My lord, tomorrow you will order..." Butler Li Fu reminded him.
"If you want to talk about it, it's too late..." Li Da had a bitter face, and after a lot of effort, he praised the two money, but in the end, he also met a fraudulent marriage-Qin Law has strict regulations on marriage, the same surname does not marry, People of the same clan do not marry, and people of the same origin do not marry.
And if a woman cheats after marriage, even the neighbors can report it, and the adulterer will be beaten to death!
But this is all on the condition of marriage, if you are not married, if you have not registered a family with the Yamen, they are not yours!
A dowry gift?
You are willing to give!
This is the brilliance of this family. Usually, when the betrothal gift is celebrated, it is registered in the yamen, but their family does not. Several times they say that it is not a coincidence. Then they find things to dissolve the engagement.
The marriage contract was only a verbal agreement, and poor Li Ya gave him a token of love, which was the trophy of the two of them.
Li Jiyang became even angrier when he heard this: "Let everyone give me a good rest tonight. Tomorrow Pingdan, prepare meals in the kitchen and set off after sunrise, and follow me to get the bride price back."
Yang Feiying saw that he had made up his mind, so he didn't insist anymore. He was a literati and an aide, not as good as Li Jiyang, a doctor.
Because it was too late, everyone didn't tell Gan Jing that although he looked healthy, he was just recovering from a serious illness, so everyone tried not to let him worry.
So the next day, when the sky was getting dark, Li Jiyang was ready to go. Gan Jing thought he was going to Dianmao, so she didn't ask any more questions. As a result, Li Jiyang took people and went to the north gate in a mighty way.
At half a quarter of sunrise, all four gates of Xianyang City opened, and Li Jiyang rushed out first with his people.
Wangjia Village is a newly built village, less than a year old.
Because half of the 68 families in the village are surnamed Wang, and the Wang family was the first to settle here, so the village was named after "Wang's family".
Early in the morning, the Wang family got up to cook. This year, they got a lot of betrothal gifts because they told their sister about their marriage, and they had a big man as their backer. The whole family was very happy.
Although the family has been separated, the nine families still get together for dinner from time to time. Now the father and mother are still alive, and the younger sister is a family. The eldest son to the eighth son are all separated, but they all surround their own father and mother. The house built by the ancestral house is for the nearby care.
As a result, this morning, someone broke the peace.
A group of people walked for an hour in the morning light, and arrived at Wangjia Village. It happened to be a time when everyone had nothing to do and gathered together to plan the spring plowing.
The members of the Wang family were sitting in the house with a large family, and Li Jiyang led people to kill them at the door of their house.
"Young Master?" The other party is a commoner, and the fence used is not very high, and the gate is a wooden fence gate.
"Kick down the gate for me, remember, you have to be imposing!" Li Jiyang came with them on legs, one was not far away, and the other was because he didn't want them to be prepared.
If they came on horseback, they would immediately know that the person who came was not good!
Because in the state of Qin, people with horses must be nobles!
Li Jiyang has a horse, but he doesn't know how to ride... Nonsense, in the Qin Dynasty, there wasn't even a horse porch, so riding on a horse is a pain in the ass!
The architecture of the Wang family is very interesting. One son has one house, but there are ten houses in total. It is a very good family, and because of the large population, it seems to be prosperous.
No wonder Li Ya fell in love with her at a glance. They are the only two children left in their family. The family is prosperous. Maybe this girl can inherit her mother's good luck and have seven or eight children!
"Who is it?" A woman came out, she looked ordinary, and she was wearing a new dress.
"That fabric was from our dowry!" Li Da complained to Li Jiyang from the side: "There were ten pieces of cloth in the dowry at that time, and one of them was of this color, which was specially arranged by the housekeeper from the warehouse. Everyone in the house shared a horse, it is said that it is a good thing from the palace, and we are all very rare."
Li Jiyang has seen that red color before. To be precise, it is not red, but carmine, with a bit of luster. It is said that it is mixed with some silk, so it is shiny, soft and transparent.
It was originally a bride price, but now it is worn on this woman!
"We are the Li family, we are here to ask for a bride price!" Li Jiyang replied loudly, but unfortunately, he is too tender!
"Hahaha!" The woman sneered for a while: "You are a little bastard who has no hair yet, and you want to return the Li family? Is there no one in the Li family?"
However, she also saw so many people, and while talking, she shouted into the room: "Come out quickly! Someone from the Li family is asking for a gift!"
When the insiders heard this, they couldn't sit still. The bride price this time was enough for them for half a year, how could they return it?
All of a sudden, all eight brothers ran out!
Li Jiyang didn't wear an official uniform, but he looked like he was not an ordinary person. All the old soldiers came. They came out this time with crossbows.No one is more comfortable with the crossbow than Qin Jun.
Xin Sheng also followed, but he didn't bring a guard, but came to support him as a junior of the old soldiers. When he saw people coming out, he immediately commanded them: "Surround!"
How fast are the veterans?
As soon as the other party went out, their people dispersed. There were about 20 people, except 20 people outside the village as backup, and [-] people were guarding on the way into the village. The remaining [-] people were surrounded completely fine!
Maybe it's because they have had a lot of experience in cheating on betrothal gifts, and they have seen this kind of battle before. The Wang family is not afraid, especially they have noble people to help them.
"What are you doing?" A middle-aged man rushed out with a stern look on his face: "Is there any law?"
The other brothers also worked together. Four of them blocked the access to each house, two of them stood on the wall condescendingly, and one followed the middle-aged man who was the first to come out. Obviously, the first to come out The middle-aged man is the eldest brother.
"Come today, what I'm talking about is not Wang Fa, but the bride price." Li Da finally became stronger, because many old brothers came to help him, if he is more doughty, it would be too embarrassing.
"Uncle Li, the matter is over. Our younger sister is indeed not suitable for your second younger brother. Didn't the bride price be returned to you?" The other party obviously raised his head and talked to Li Da through his nostrils.
"You just give us two bolts of plain cloth to send the beggars?" Li Da said loudly: "Our Li family gave you the bride price of the Wang family. The money alone is two gold and ten bolts of cloth, and now they are all worn by your mother-in-law. You still don’t admit it? The betrothal gift you returned to us is not right at all!”
At this time, because their movement was not small, many people had already come out to watch the fun. Seeing the huge crowd, Li Jiyang couldn't help sighing: People in the Central Plains have liked to join in the fun since ancient times!
After hearing that the daughter of the Wang family had another successful blind date and received another large gift, these people looked at the Wang family in the wrong way—from the beginning of a hundred knives, to the later hundreds of knives, the money was not mentioned Yes, the key is things, pig meat, cattle and sheep, cloth, grain, which one did not come?
This time it went too far, even asking for gold from others!
Where do commoners get gold?It's obvious that they are honest and easy to bully, but no, they have come to your door!
Is it amazing to have a girl?
If this continues, the Wang family will soon become rich!
It's so easy to make money, why are they working so hard?
"My little sister also said a few words to you and even held hands with you. Her reputation has been tarnished, so of course I have to make up for it!" Why? You are a cunning outsider when you get married like this, my sister is so well raised at home, how can I be worthy of a vulgar person like you?"
"That's right, look at the scars on your face, my sister has nightmares at night!"
There are actually two scars on Li Ya's face, but they are not big, and they can't be seen if you don't get close.
"Also, your family doesn't even have a place to live. Why did you ask my sister to go to Lijiazhuang with you? Who knows where it is? If you sell my sister, we don't even know!"
The location of Lijiazhuang is indeed very remote, let alone a little girl, even if it is a small official who is going to inform the matter, it is impossible to find anyone who is not an acquaintance.
"That's not what you said at the time!" Li yelled loudly: "At that time, you even asked the girl to come out to meet our father and son, and then you started asking for gifts, gold, knives, pig meat, cattle and sheep, If you want cloth, we gave it all, and even our father and son’s private collections were given in the name of bride price, but they said it was inappropriate? Why didn’t you say it was inappropriate when you asked for bride price? "
Those are all excuses, this family just doesn't want to return the bride price, so many things, how can they spit out after eating them?
It hurts just thinking about it!
"Don't talk nonsense with them!" Li Jiyang had heard enough of it. The family was indeed suspected of cheating, and they might have divided up all the things. Otherwise, the boss's wife wouldn't have come out to open the door for them in such nice clothes.
Naturally, the materials used in the palace are not comparable to those used by ordinary people. Otherwise, who wants to weave cotton cloth with silk?
"What do you want?" It seems that the other party will not accept soft and hard, the middle-aged man thought to himself, do you want to do something?
Although I don't have many brothers on my side, there are quite a few of their clan relatives among the people who came to see the excitement outside. It's a big deal. Let's go together and scare people away first.
It's not that this kind of thing has never happened before, but there are many people on my side, so I'm not afraid of making trouble.
At most, the betrothal gift will be divided among them a little bit, which is almost the same.
As everyone knows, in the eyes of his clan, his family is already good enough to eliminate the clan!
"What do I want?" Li Jiyang smiled: "I want to return the betrothal gift. From now on, we will go our separate ways. If we don't return the betrothal gift, don't blame us for doing it ourselves!"
"They're going to give that girl another family tomorrow, and then it really has nothing to do with us." Yang Feiying smiled wryly: "It's such a mess. If I had known their family was like that, I wouldn't have thought about it at all." Will agree!"
