Song female man
Chapter 72
Mrs. Ma later explained that Mrs. Zhao approached her a few days ago and asked her to help, and said that she would give her the same money as a reward for helping.
Always money is not a small amount for Mrs. Ma, because her husband and son both earn money by doing odd jobs. If they are lucky, the father and son can earn two to three hundred Wen a day, but if they are unlucky, several If there is no work to do every day, you have to live on your own money, and the family lives in extreme poverty.Therefore, as soon as Mrs. Zhao said that she would give her a consistent amount of money as a reward for her help, she was tempted.Then she asked Mrs. Zhao what kind of help she needed, and Mrs. Zhao said, let her son go to her shop one day to eat a plate of seeds, and then eat a pack when he returns home. Although his stomach hurts, nothing will happen. The powder will do.Then the next day she came to Wenjia Foot Store and waited, and when the person who delivered the seeds came, she grabbed him and told him that her son was poisoned yesterday after eating the seeds he gave him, and asked him to pay for it. And Mrs. Zhao will also call a few people to help her, so that the man who sent the seed cannot escape...
Mrs. Ma understood that Mrs. Zhao wanted to blackmail the person who sent the seed, and this kind of thing is not uncommon among businessmen in Bianliang City.Especially those in the catering business, there are many rascals who use this method to extort money.Mrs. Zhao also said that if the person who sent the seedlings lost money, they would split the accounts with Mrs. Ma. After hearing this, Mrs. Ma settled the account. Five-five split accounts, plus the consistent money that Mrs. Zhao gave first, add up to five or six per cent. Of course, this kind of business can be done, so I agreed to Mrs. Zhao.
But what I didn't expect later was that after the person who sent the seed was caught, he didn't want to be private anymore, and clamored to go to the Kaifeng government office for justice, and the people around him were also booing and adding fuel to the flames. I was afraid that the matter of making people lose money was going to fail, so I bit the bullet and went.
After all, she was lucky in her heart, and felt that the adults who wanted to be judges might not be able to find out any flaws. Unexpectedly, when she met the Kaifeng government office, she met Bao Qingtian, who was like a god of solving cases. The clumsy trick was revealed.
After Mrs. Ma confessed, Bao Zheng immediately sent someone to arrest Mrs. Zhao and bring him to justice.
Mrs. Zhao was escorted to the court by the yamen of Kaifeng Mansion. After seeing Mrs. Ma and hearing Mrs. Ma's confession, she also recruited.
She said that she also went back to her mother's house during the Chinese New Year and listened to her parents' complaints, so she felt revenge on Kijiro who sent the seeds.It happened that Xi Erlang recently promoted his seedlings, and when she came to Wenjia Xiaojiao, she agreed to deliver the goods to Xi Erlang, and then came up with this idea, wanting to blackmail Xi Erlang a sum of money to vent his anger on his parents, so she asked Ma Shi helped...
This Mrs. Zhao was also slick. She confessed in the court and took everything on herself, and she never confessed to her brother Zhao Sanlang.
Speaking of which, it wasn't that Zhao Sanlang found her some time ago, took out three pennies of money, and asked her, the sister, to help punish Xi Erlang, so as to cut off Xi Erlang's money.How to cut Kijiro's money is also the way her brother said.Before this, although the Zhao family had complained about Xi Erlang because of his parents, and was also angry at Xi Erlang for embarrassing the Zhao family and losing money, he never had the idea of revenge.It wasn't until Zhao Sanlang brought the three guan money and said how to get revenge on Xi Erlang that she was moved.
When she received the money, she also asked Zhao Sanlang where the money came from, because she knew that his brother could never have money. Zhao Sanlang said that it was his money from another person who also hated Xi Erlang. Who is it, Zhao Sanlang didn't say.It is estimated that Zhao Sanlang didn't want his sister to know that Liang Sanlang had actually given him five guans of money, but he picked up two guans and only gave three guans of money to his sister.
Mrs. Zhao accepted the three guan money, but did not tell her husband Wen Dalang about it, just because her husband is a timid person, if he knew, he would definitely not agree to do this.Later, she found a few idlers who often came to her shop to eat, treated them to a meal, and asked them to help Ma Shi stop Xi Erlang the next day, and smashed his ox cart. , she will treat them to another meal.
What she wanted was not only to blackmail Xi Erlang's money, but also to ruin his reputation, smash his ox cart, and spread the poisonous words that Xi Erlang sent, so that other foot shops would never dare to take it again. The seed he sent.How could she know that the black-faced man accompanying Xi Erlang was very fierce, and the helpers she hired couldn't get close to her, and finally watched the black-faced man drive the ox cart away.Not only that, the one and a half older children who followed Na Xierlang were also very cunning, convincing the surrounding people to push Ma Shi and Na Xierlang to the Kaifeng government office.
As soon as they went to the Kaifeng government office, Mrs. Zhao's heart was pounding, thinking that something might happen, the yamen servant from Kaifeng government office came later, asked her for questioning, and went to Mrs. Ma's house.Later, several yamen servants came and escorted her to the Kaifeng government office unceremoniously.When her official, Wen Dalang, saw these servants, he hid aside in fright, and did not dare to say anything when he saw her being taken away.Mrs. Zhao thought, if this happened, maybe that timid official of hers would still want to divorce his wife. She regretted accepting the money from her younger brother Zhao Sanlang at this moment, and after listening to his bewitching, she made a deed. this stupidity...
Bao Zheng tried the case and pronounced the verdict in court. Zhao and Ma conspired to blackmail Xi Erlang's money. Compensation to Kijiro.
Shunniang heard the verdict from below, of course she praised Bao Zheng in various ways, saying that he is a parent official who wholeheartedly serves the people, he is the master of Qingtian, Bao Qingtian's title is very suitable and so on.
The yamen servants in the hall immediately dragged Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Ma down and beat them with [-] sticks, which made the two women cry out in pain, and another yamen servant went to enforce the fine.
Not long after, officials from the Zhao family and the Ma family came, paid the fine, and carried the two women who had been beaten so hard that they could no longer walk. Bao Zheng asked the Yacha to hand over the money to Shun Mother, then declare the case closed.
Shunniang took the money, thanked the famous Bao Qingtian in the hall, and then withdrew.
When they arrived at Kaifeng Mansion Yamen, Shitou, Xie Yi and others rushed over and surrounded her, all of them had joyful expressions on their faces.
In order to thank Heiwa and Shitou for their help today, Shunniang gave them the usual money as a reward. As for her father-in-law and the others, she said that she would hold a good banquet tomorrow, with good wine and good food. Please thank Yi and others People eat wine.
Everyone was happy. On the way back to Yangliu Town, Shunniang told Xie Yi and the others that even if Bao Qingtian couldn't make a clear decision on the case today, she still had a way to clear her name.
Everyone was curious, so they asked Shunniang what she could do to clear her name.
Shunniang said that as early as more than ten days ago, she had numbered the foot shops she sent bean sprouts to, and recorded how many catties of bean sprouts she sent to these numbered foot shops. After helping her, she always weighed the bean sprouts according to the number and bundled them up early in the morning. When weighing the bean sprouts, she would deliberately leave a dozen to put aside, so that the bean sprouts she sent to each store according to the number , There are a dozen or so roots corresponding to the bottom at home.If someone made a fuss about the bean sprouts she sent, she would take out the remaining bean sprouts to prove her innocence.
Having said this, Hei Wa also suddenly realized, and said that no wonder every morning when he went to deliver bean sprouts, he would see another basket of bean sprouts tied with thin wires and hung with a small wooden sign with numbers written on them.It turned out that this was left by Shunniang.Basically, these bean sprouts left at the bottom will be kept for about five days, and will not be thrown away until they rot.For these bean sprouts that were thrown away, many Liu said that Shunniang was a waste, and Hei Wa was also puzzled, why Shunniang did this.Now that he understood, he couldn't help giving Shunniang a thumbs up.
Xie Yi asked Shunniang why she didn't just show her own evidence when she was in court just now, instead she had to wait for Bao Zheng to send a government officer to investigate.
Shunniang smiled: "Of course it is to fulfill Master Bao's reputation. He is Bao Qingtian. This kind of small case will definitely not trouble him. Why should I show my ability? Look, is there no Master Bao behind?" ?"
This time, even Xie Yi gave Shunniang a thumbs up, saying that she is delicate in thought and understands the world and people. Be careful to make the ten-thousand-year ship, and you must be extra careful when selling these things that you eat in your stomach.Compared to Shun Niang, he is much more careless, and it seems that he will have to spend more time selling meat in the future.
Shunniang said modestly that Erniang Xie inspired her, and if she wanted to praise her, she should praise Erniang Xie more.
Xie Yi was even happier when he heard that, he patted Shun Niang on the shoulder and said that he is a daughter and is virtuous, Shun Niang has found a good wife.
When everyone arrived in Yangliu Town, it was completely dark, and when the ox cart drove into the backyard of Xie's house, Erniang Xie ran over first.Mrs. Wu took her son, Mrs. Qi hugged Huier, Mrs. Liu led Kecheng, and they all surrounded her.
Shunniang just jumped off the bullock cart, and two people came to hug her, one was her mother, the other was Xie Erniang, both of them were crying.
Mrs. Liu said that she was really worried about Shunniang getting a lawsuit and going to jail, while Xie Erniang said that it would be good if Shunniang came back, otherwise he would go to the city to see her tomorrow.
"Okay, I'm fine, you can see that I haven't lost a hair." Shun Niang said, patting the two of them on the back.
Wu Shi asked from the side how this matter was resolved this time.
Xie Yi said: "Eat first, let's talk while eating."
Wu Shi: "The dishes for the dinner at noon are still reserved. I'll heat them up right away, and everyone can eat them."
Xie Yi called everyone present to sit down and eat in Xie's house, and the daughter's wedding banquet was changed to evening.
Surrounded by the three women around her, Shunniang went to sit down in the hall of Xie's house. Xie Yi had already begun to speak harshly about how Bao Zheng tried the case involving Shunniang in the Kaifeng government office today.Mrs. Liu and others listened, only Shunniang saw Xie Erniang's beautiful big eyes on her all the time, when their eyes met, she pursed her lips and smiled sweetly.
The next day after Xie Erniang's Jiji banquet, Shunniang used the remaining two compensation funds to hold a banquet. Besides Xie's and Lu's, she also invited her neighbors, including Liang's.
All the Liang family came to the banquet except Liang Sanlang.
After Liang Erniang went back, she talked to her younger brother, and she said: "This time, others don't know the details of Xi Erlang's being framed and planned, but I know. You must have given five pennies to Zhao Sanlang, and Zhao Sanlang again With this money, he went to the city to find his sister and brother-in-law who opened a foot shop, and asked them to help with the seedlings sent by Xi Erlang, hoping to blackmail people and cut off their wealth. Fortunately, Zhao Sanlang's Eldest sister Zhao Auntie did not confess to Zhao Sanlang, so you escaped a catastrophe. Otherwise, you would have been arrested and taken to the Kaifeng government office to be fined with a cane, and then our Liang family will have an enmity with the Xi family and Xie family. Our tofu The workshop can no longer be opened in Yangliu Town..."
Liang Sanlang secretly rejoiced all afternoon after learning about Shunniang's accident yesterday, and he didn't sleep well all night after he learned that Shunniang had returned to Yangliu Town safely, and he didn't dare to go to Xi's house for a treat the next day.At this moment, he was relieved to hear his sister talk about how Bao Zheng tried the case and what the result was.
However, when his sister guessed the ins and outs of the whole thing and said it out, he also lowered his head and admitted his mistake to his sister, saying that he would never do such a foolish thing again.
Seeing him like this, Liang Erniang couldn't help but shook her head and sighed, "Hey, you'd better let go of that Xie Erniang, don't do stupid things anymore, there are many girls in Yangliu Town who like you, you pick one you like In short, my sister is going to hire you, Xie Erniang is going to get married in May, and you, if you can get married this year, sister can rest assured, no one will pity you..."
When she said the word "poor", Liang Sanlang's self-esteem was hurt. He gritted his teeth and said to her sister: "Then I will marry a daughter-in-law before Xie Erniang gets married, and let her not underestimate me, thinking that nothing but No one will marry me."
Liang Erniang didn't expect her younger brother to make up his mind so quickly to get married before Xie Erniang and Xi Erlang got married, so as not to make people feel sorry for him, but she didn't approve of her younger brother's hasty decision on marriage, and said immediately: "Marry if you say so. This is too fast, from March to May, only two months, even if the dowry can be prepared in half a month, but what about this person, can the little lady who is willing to marry you be settled in half a month?"
Liang Sanlang said without thinking, "Xinghua, the daughter of Mrs. Hu's family, will be willing if you tell me."
Liang Erniang was slightly startled, and asked him with wide eyes: "Did you hate Xinghua the most in the past? I remember that you ignored her several times. This marriage is not a child's play. It's whoever you click on."
Liang Sanlang thought to himself, except Xie Erniang, marrying anyone is not marrying, but marrying into the family to have children and live a life. He didn't want Xi Erlang and Xie Erniang to feel sorry for him, and he had to get married before the two of them got married. Take a look, I'm not a poor guy.
"Sister, what exactly do you want me to do? If I don't get married, you are afraid that I will entangle Xie Erniang and do something inappropriate. I want to marry Xinghua, and you say I am kidding. Okay, don't worry about my affairs from now on." Now, whether I am good or bad has nothing to do with you." Liang Sanlang said impatiently.
Liang Erniang looked at the younger brother who was frowning together, and after a moment of silence, she finally said, "Okay, let me ask you again, do you really want to marry Xinghua in May?"
Liang Sanlang nodded.
Liang Erniang asked him again if he made this decision on impulse, and she hoped he would be careful.
Liang Sanlang said that he might marry Xinghua, so he would never miss Xie Erniang again, and would never do anything impulsive to Xie Erniang and Xi Erlang.
This time the younger brother was lucky that he was not found out by the government to harm Xi Erlang. Erniang Liang was already a little scared. After listening to what the younger brother said at this time, she probably understood him. The best way to forget someone is to find a replacement. Find a new love.If you don't agree to him at this time, when he sees that Xi Erlang really married Xie Erniang and enters the door, the two are in love with each other, he will definitely be stimulated again, if he does something illegal again, he may not have such good luck next time up.
After thinking about it, Liang Erniang finally nodded and said that she would find a matchmaker tomorrow and ask her to go to Hu's house to propose marriage to Xinghua for him. Before getting married, Liang Sanlang said: "Three days before the day they get married."
"In this way, I really have to get busy. However, Sanlang, I, as a sister, want to remind you that once you marry Xinghua, you must be nice to them, and don't just use them for appearance. Disharmony, she is not the only one who suffers, you, even me, and mother will follow suit."
"I'm sensible, sister, don't worry."
Liang Erniang was relieved after hearing her brother's words. After traveling to this era, she also understood that marriage in this era is different from the era before she wore it.The vast majority of couples are unlikely to hold hands and fall in love before marriage. At most, they meet once during a blind date, followed by the orders of their parents and the words of a matchmaker, and finally get married and live together for a lifetime.Therefore, my younger brother, Liang Sanlang and Xinghua, who were born and bred in the Song Dynasty, met the conditions for ordinary men and women to get married.If the two of them want to become husband and wife, they don't need to fall in love. They just need to find a matchmaker to propose marriage. The Hu family agrees, and the two parties can follow the procedure of getting married.
Besides, Xinghua's appearance is also worthy of her brother, and she really likes him. If she marries him, she will definitely treat him well. As an older sister, she can let go and let another woman take care of him up.
Thinking about it this way, Liang Erniang went to find a matchmaker for her younger brother, and after two days the matchmaker asked the Hu family to propose marriage.
The wife of the Hu family met the matchmaker with other officials, and quickly replied to the post, agreeing to the Liang family's marriage proposal. After all, this Liang Sanlang was not only liked by Xinghua, but even the wife of the Hu family had long wanted to recruit him as her son-in-law.
The Liang family then hired, and the Hu family discussed with the Liang family and set the auspicious day on May 21st, three days before Shunniang and Erniang Xie got married.
There is another family in Yangliu Town who wants to have a wedding in May, and that is the Zhao family, the former neighbor of the Xi family.
The lady of the Zhao family went to the city to visit her daughter after she received the cane, and she found out from her that it was her son Zhao Sanlang who instigated her to do something stupid. After returning, she called Zhao Sanlang and scolded him. He said that it was fortunate that his sister blocked the disaster for him this time, otherwise he would have such a notorious reputation, and there would be no family in Yangliu Town willing to marry their daughter to him.
After thinking about it, the wife of the Zhao family decided to marry her son a daughter-in-law as soon as possible to let her son take care of him and stop wandering outside, so as not to cause trouble again.
She asked someone to go to the nearby countryside to find a poor family who was willing to accept a small dowry to marry a daughter. After searching for more than a month, she finally found a family named Huang. This family had many children and was willing to accept three dowries. Daughter, Mrs. Zhao raised money to hire this Huang Siniang, a daughter of the Huang family, for her son Zhao Sanlang, and she was scheduled to marry on May 26.
So in May, first the Liang family held a wedding in Yangliu Town, the Xi family was also invited to the wedding banquet, Shun Niang was also invited, the Xie family also received the invitation, and Er Niang Xie also went.For Liang Sanlang to marry Xinghua so quickly, not only Shunniang and Xie Erniang, but also many people in the town were quite surprised.
For this reason, Mrs. Qi went to ask Liang Erniang specifically, and asked when Liang Sanlang and Xinghua met each other. It was hard to believe that it was suddenly reported that the two were engaged.
Liang Erniang said that she only recently heard from her younger brother that he wanted to marry Xinghua, and as her older sister, she must be helping her younger brother achieve his wish.
Mrs. Qi went back and told Mrs. Liu and Shunniang that Mrs. Liu immediately said that Xinghua was not good enough for Liang Sanlang. It is set before the auspicious day when Shunniang and Xie Erniang get married.
Later, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Wu talked about this matter, and the two agreed that Liang Sanlang married Xinghua. His daughters are all short-sighted, and they are not optimistic about this marriage.
When Shunniang talked about this with Xie Erniang, she said that Liang Sanlang was acting in a fit of anger. He just wanted to show himself and Xie Erniang that he was not wanted by anyone, and that it was a matter of minutes to marry a wife.However, this kind of marriage with impure motives will inevitably lead to problems and unhappy marriages in the future.
Xie Erniang said: "But I thought he was married and stopped thinking about me. This is a good thing. As for how well they live, it depends on how they get along after they get married. After all, it turned out that being a relative is not so loving."
Shun Niang answered: "I also think this is a good thing, my wife will not be missed, I will sleep better."
On the day Liang Sanlang and Xinghua got married, more than a dozen tables were set up in the backyard of the Liang family, and everyone on the street who could talk to the Liang family was invited, and it was really lively.
When the groom came to toast the guests, Shunniang looked at Liang Sanlang, whose smile seemed to be forced, and he didn't seem to be thinking about getting a bridal chamber like other married men, and would not let go of drinking.He would drink all the toasts from the guests. In this way, after drinking seven or eight tables of the male guests, he was already drunk. Later, it was Lu Zhan, Shunniang and others who helped him down.As for Xie Erniang and others who went to see the bride, Xinghua, they found that Xinghua's chin was raised very high this day, and her smile was particularly bright. Whenever they mentioned Liang Sanlang, they said that he was the most handsome man in Yangliu Town. Jun is now her official.
She said this to Xie Erniang deliberately, as if she was demonstrating.
Xie Erniang didn't want to tear up with her again on Xinghua's big day, so she just said lightly: "Congratulations."
Then he retreated first, leaving a few other girls in the room joking with Xinghua.
Xie Erniang walked outside, curled her lips, and muttered softly: "You can be handsome as food or as clothes, and it's not the same when you're old..."
Always money is not a small amount for Mrs. Ma, because her husband and son both earn money by doing odd jobs. If they are lucky, the father and son can earn two to three hundred Wen a day, but if they are unlucky, several If there is no work to do every day, you have to live on your own money, and the family lives in extreme poverty.Therefore, as soon as Mrs. Zhao said that she would give her a consistent amount of money as a reward for her help, she was tempted.Then she asked Mrs. Zhao what kind of help she needed, and Mrs. Zhao said, let her son go to her shop one day to eat a plate of seeds, and then eat a pack when he returns home. Although his stomach hurts, nothing will happen. The powder will do.Then the next day she came to Wenjia Foot Store and waited, and when the person who delivered the seeds came, she grabbed him and told him that her son was poisoned yesterday after eating the seeds he gave him, and asked him to pay for it. And Mrs. Zhao will also call a few people to help her, so that the man who sent the seed cannot escape...
Mrs. Ma understood that Mrs. Zhao wanted to blackmail the person who sent the seed, and this kind of thing is not uncommon among businessmen in Bianliang City.Especially those in the catering business, there are many rascals who use this method to extort money.Mrs. Zhao also said that if the person who sent the seedlings lost money, they would split the accounts with Mrs. Ma. After hearing this, Mrs. Ma settled the account. Five-five split accounts, plus the consistent money that Mrs. Zhao gave first, add up to five or six per cent. Of course, this kind of business can be done, so I agreed to Mrs. Zhao.
But what I didn't expect later was that after the person who sent the seed was caught, he didn't want to be private anymore, and clamored to go to the Kaifeng government office for justice, and the people around him were also booing and adding fuel to the flames. I was afraid that the matter of making people lose money was going to fail, so I bit the bullet and went.
After all, she was lucky in her heart, and felt that the adults who wanted to be judges might not be able to find out any flaws. Unexpectedly, when she met the Kaifeng government office, she met Bao Qingtian, who was like a god of solving cases. The clumsy trick was revealed.
After Mrs. Ma confessed, Bao Zheng immediately sent someone to arrest Mrs. Zhao and bring him to justice.
Mrs. Zhao was escorted to the court by the yamen of Kaifeng Mansion. After seeing Mrs. Ma and hearing Mrs. Ma's confession, she also recruited.
She said that she also went back to her mother's house during the Chinese New Year and listened to her parents' complaints, so she felt revenge on Kijiro who sent the seeds.It happened that Xi Erlang recently promoted his seedlings, and when she came to Wenjia Xiaojiao, she agreed to deliver the goods to Xi Erlang, and then came up with this idea, wanting to blackmail Xi Erlang a sum of money to vent his anger on his parents, so she asked Ma Shi helped...

As soon as they went to the Kaifeng government office, Mrs. Zhao's heart was pounding, thinking that something might happen, the yamen servant from Kaifeng government office came later, asked her for questioning, and went to Mrs. Ma's house.Later, several yamen servants came and escorted her to the Kaifeng government office unceremoniously.When her official, Wen Dalang, saw these servants, he hid aside in fright, and did not dare to say anything when he saw her being taken away.Mrs. Zhao thought, if this happened, maybe that timid official of hers would still want to divorce his wife.

Shunniang just jumped off the bullock cart, and two people came to hug her, one was her mother, the other was Xie Erniang, both of them were crying.
Mrs. Liu said that she was really worried about Shunniang getting a lawsuit and going to jail, while Xie Erniang said that it would be good if Shunniang came back, otherwise he would go to the city to see her tomorrow.
"Okay, I'm fine, you can see that I haven't lost a hair." Shun Niang said, patting the two of them on the back.
Wu Shi asked from the side how this matter was resolved this time.
Xie Yi said: "Eat first, let's talk while eating."
Wu Shi: "The dishes for the dinner at noon are still reserved. I'll heat them up right away, and everyone can eat them."
Xie Yi called everyone present to sit down and eat in Xie's house, and the daughter's wedding banquet was changed to evening.
Surrounded by the three women around her, Shunniang went to sit down in the hall of Xie's house. Xie Yi had already begun to speak harshly about how Bao Zheng tried the case involving Shunniang in the Kaifeng government office today.Mrs. Liu and others listened, only Shunniang saw Xie Erniang's beautiful big eyes on her all the time, when their eyes met, she pursed her lips and smiled sweetly.
The next day after Xie Erniang's Jiji banquet, Shunniang used the remaining two compensation funds to hold a banquet. Besides Xie's and Lu's, she also invited her neighbors, including Liang's.
All the Liang family came to the banquet except Liang Sanlang.
After Liang Erniang went back, she talked to her younger brother, and she said: "This time, others don't know the details of Xi Erlang's being framed and planned, but I know. You must have given five pennies to Zhao Sanlang, and Zhao Sanlang again With this money, he went to the city to find his sister and brother-in-law who opened a foot shop, and asked them to help with the seedlings sent by Xi Erlang, hoping to blackmail people and cut off their wealth. Fortunately, Zhao Sanlang's Eldest sister Zhao Auntie did not confess to Zhao Sanlang, so you escaped a catastrophe. Otherwise, you would have been arrested and taken to the Kaifeng government office to be fined with a cane, and then our Liang family will have an enmity with the Xi family and Xie family. Our tofu The workshop can no longer be opened in Yangliu Town..."
Liang Sanlang secretly rejoiced all afternoon after learning about Shunniang's accident yesterday, and he didn't sleep well all night after he learned that Shunniang had returned to Yangliu Town safely, and he didn't dare to go to Xi's house for a treat the next day.At this moment, he was relieved to hear his sister talk about how Bao Zheng tried the case and what the result was.
However, when his sister guessed the ins and outs of the whole thing and said it out, he also lowered his head and admitted his mistake to his sister, saying that he would never do such a foolish thing again.
Seeing him like this, Liang Erniang couldn't help but shook her head and sighed, "Hey, you'd better let go of that Xie Erniang, don't do stupid things anymore, there are many girls in Yangliu Town who like you, you pick one you like In short, my sister is going to hire you, Xie Erniang is going to get married in May, and you, if you can get married this year, sister can rest assured, no one will pity you..."
When she said the word "poor", Liang Sanlang's self-esteem was hurt. He gritted his teeth and said to her sister: "Then I will marry a daughter-in-law before Xie Erniang gets married, and let her not underestimate me, thinking that nothing but No one will marry me."
Liang Erniang didn't expect her younger brother to make up his mind so quickly to get married before Xie Erniang and Xi Erlang got married, so as not to make people feel sorry for him, but she didn't approve of her younger brother's hasty decision on marriage, and said immediately: "Marry if you say so. This is too fast, from March to May, only two months, even if the dowry can be prepared in half a month, but what about this person, can the little lady who is willing to marry you be settled in half a month?"
Liang Sanlang said without thinking, "Xinghua, the daughter of Mrs. Hu's family, will be willing if you tell me."
Liang Erniang was slightly startled, and asked him with wide eyes: "Did you hate Xinghua the most in the past? I remember that you ignored her several times. This marriage is not a child's play. It's whoever you click on."
Liang Sanlang thought to himself, except Xie Erniang, marrying anyone is not marrying, but marrying into the family to have children and live a life. He didn't want Xi Erlang and Xie Erniang to feel sorry for him, and he had to get married before the two of them got married. Take a look, I'm not a poor guy.
"Sister, what exactly do you want me to do? If I don't get married, you are afraid that I will entangle Xie Erniang and do something inappropriate. I want to marry Xinghua, and you say I am kidding. Okay, don't worry about my affairs from now on." Now, whether I am good or bad has nothing to do with you." Liang Sanlang said impatiently.
Liang Erniang looked at the younger brother who was frowning together, and after a moment of silence, she finally said, "Okay, let me ask you again, do you really want to marry Xinghua in May?"
Liang Sanlang nodded.
Liang Erniang asked him again if he made this decision on impulse, and she hoped he would be careful.
Liang Sanlang said that he might marry Xinghua, so he would never miss Xie Erniang again, and would never do anything impulsive to Xie Erniang and Xi Erlang.
This time the younger brother was lucky that he was not found out by the government to harm Xi Erlang. Erniang Liang was already a little scared. After listening to what the younger brother said at this time, she probably understood him. The best way to forget someone is to find a replacement. Find a new love.If you don't agree to him at this time, when he sees that Xi Erlang really married Xie Erniang and enters the door, the two are in love with each other, he will definitely be stimulated again, if he does something illegal again, he may not have such good luck next time up.
After thinking about it, Liang Erniang finally nodded and said that she would find a matchmaker tomorrow and ask her to go to Hu's house to propose marriage to Xinghua for him. Before getting married, Liang Sanlang said: "Three days before the day they get married."
"In this way, I really have to get busy. However, Sanlang, I, as a sister, want to remind you that once you marry Xinghua, you must be nice to them, and don't just use them for appearance. Disharmony, she is not the only one who suffers, you, even me, and mother will follow suit."
"I'm sensible, sister, don't worry."
Liang Erniang was relieved after hearing her brother's words. After traveling to this era, she also understood that marriage in this era is different from the era before she wore it.The vast majority of couples are unlikely to hold hands and fall in love before marriage. At most, they meet once during a blind date, followed by the orders of their parents and the words of a matchmaker, and finally get married and live together for a lifetime.Therefore, my younger brother, Liang Sanlang and Xinghua, who were born and bred in the Song Dynasty, met the conditions for ordinary men and women to get married.If the two of them want to become husband and wife, they don't need to fall in love. They just need to find a matchmaker to propose marriage. The Hu family agrees, and the two parties can follow the procedure of getting married.
Besides, Xinghua's appearance is also worthy of her brother, and she really likes him. If she marries him, she will definitely treat him well. As an older sister, she can let go and let another woman take care of him up.
Thinking about it this way, Liang Erniang went to find a matchmaker for her younger brother, and after two days the matchmaker asked the Hu family to propose marriage.
The wife of the Hu family met the matchmaker with other officials, and quickly replied to the post, agreeing to the Liang family's marriage proposal. After all, this Liang Sanlang was not only liked by Xinghua, but even the wife of the Hu family had long wanted to recruit him as her son-in-law.
The Liang family then hired, and the Hu family discussed with the Liang family and set the auspicious day on May 21st, three days before Shunniang and Erniang Xie got married.
There is another family in Yangliu Town who wants to have a wedding in May, and that is the Zhao family, the former neighbor of the Xi family.
The lady of the Zhao family went to the city to visit her daughter after she received the cane, and she found out from her that it was her son Zhao Sanlang who instigated her to do something stupid. After returning, she called Zhao Sanlang and scolded him. He said that it was fortunate that his sister blocked the disaster for him this time, otherwise he would have such a notorious reputation, and there would be no family in Yangliu Town willing to marry their daughter to him.
After thinking about it, the wife of the Zhao family decided to marry her son a daughter-in-law as soon as possible to let her son take care of him and stop wandering outside, so as not to cause trouble again.
She asked someone to go to the nearby countryside to find a poor family who was willing to accept a small dowry to marry a daughter. After searching for more than a month, she finally found a family named Huang. This family had many children and was willing to accept three dowries. Daughter, Mrs. Zhao raised money to hire this Huang Siniang, a daughter of the Huang family, for her son Zhao Sanlang, and she was scheduled to marry on May 26.
So in May, first the Liang family held a wedding in Yangliu Town, the Xi family was also invited to the wedding banquet, Shun Niang was also invited, the Xie family also received the invitation, and Er Niang Xie also went.For Liang Sanlang to marry Xinghua so quickly, not only Shunniang and Xie Erniang, but also many people in the town were quite surprised.
For this reason, Mrs. Qi went to ask Liang Erniang specifically, and asked when Liang Sanlang and Xinghua met each other. It was hard to believe that it was suddenly reported that the two were engaged.
Liang Erniang said that she only recently heard from her younger brother that he wanted to marry Xinghua, and as her older sister, she must be helping her younger brother achieve his wish.
Mrs. Qi went back and told Mrs. Liu and Shunniang that Mrs. Liu immediately said that Xinghua was not good enough for Liang Sanlang. It is set before the auspicious day when Shunniang and Xie Erniang get married.
Later, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Wu talked about this matter, and the two agreed that Liang Sanlang married Xinghua. His daughters are all short-sighted, and they are not optimistic about this marriage.
When Shunniang talked about this with Xie Erniang, she said that Liang Sanlang was acting in a fit of anger. He just wanted to show himself and Xie Erniang that he was not wanted by anyone, and that it was a matter of minutes to marry a wife.However, this kind of marriage with impure motives will inevitably lead to problems and unhappy marriages in the future.
Xie Erniang said: "But I thought he was married and stopped thinking about me. This is a good thing. As for how well they live, it depends on how they get along after they get married. After all, it turned out that being a relative is not so loving."
Shun Niang answered: "I also think this is a good thing, my wife will not be missed, I will sleep better."
On the day Liang Sanlang and Xinghua got married, more than a dozen tables were set up in the backyard of the Liang family, and everyone on the street who could talk to the Liang family was invited, and it was really lively.
When the groom came to toast the guests, Shunniang looked at Liang Sanlang, whose smile seemed to be forced, and he didn't seem to be thinking about getting a bridal chamber like other married men, and would not let go of drinking.He would drink all the toasts from the guests. In this way, after drinking seven or eight tables of the male guests, he was already drunk. Later, it was Lu Zhan, Shunniang and others who helped him down.As for Xie Erniang and others who went to see the bride, Xinghua, they found that Xinghua's chin was raised very high this day, and her smile was particularly bright. Whenever they mentioned Liang Sanlang, they said that he was the most handsome man in Yangliu Town. Jun is now her official.
She said this to Xie Erniang deliberately, as if she was demonstrating.
Xie Erniang didn't want to tear up with her again on Xinghua's big day, so she just said lightly: "Congratulations."
Then he retreated first, leaving a few other girls in the room joking with Xinghua.
Xie Erniang walked outside, curled her lips, and muttered softly: "You can be handsome as food or as clothes, and it's not the same when you're old..."
