President's Legendary Master
Chapter 177 Records in Unofficial History
It didn't take long to realize that something wasn't quite right.
Especially the Hou family, they had few people. Without newborns, several old people died of old age, and several young people died suddenly.
In the end, there was no other way. The then patriarch of the Hou family used the means of his ancestors to figure out that someone in their Hou family was unwilling to die and was acting like a demon.
So much so that the entire Hou family was cursed.
Although some bad things happened to the Yang family, but after the Yang family came to their senses, like the Hou family, they used the means of their ancestors to keep their family from having any bad things happen.
There are no more troubles in Yangjiabao, but not in Houjiacun.
In the end, the Hou family didn't know what they were thinking, and even sent a matchmaker to Yangjiabao, saying that they wanted to bring up the marriage again.
But it's all divorced, so why mention it again?
Grandpa Hou's eldest son and grandson are dead!
It's been a hundred days since everyone was buried, and it seems like half a year has passed.
What about marriage?
The marriage fell through long ago, okay?
It turned out that the matchmaker was talking about a ghost marriage.
The Yang family castle exploded immediately, how could my daughter marry a dead man and become a widow upon entering the house?
Although it is said that it was a feudal society in the past, but the feudal society is a society ruled by people, and it pays attention to human relationships. Similarly, such things as ghost marriages are very contemptible behaviors in some sensible scholars.
That's what fools and fools do.
They are all scholars, following the way of Confucius and Mencius.
The child is silent and strange!
But the old man of the Hou family who became an official official was like crazy. He insisted on marrying a wife for his eldest son and grandson, because his eldest son and grandson died violently. dead.
They are single again. According to the ancient concept of "a lonely yin does not grow, and a single yang does not grow", it is impossible for a young man who died like this to enter the ancestral grave. He can only find another auspicious place for burial.
And in order not to let the "child" be lonely, a poor and rich family will find a girl who also died young, and hold a ghost marriage. .
But those are things that only some ignorant people would do. Whether it is Yangjiabao or Houjiacun, they are all farming and studying heirs, and they all have children who are officials, and many of them have fame.
Everyone is a sensible person, so of course they will not agree to this ghost marriage.
What's more, once the girl agrees, she will be a widow when she marries, and she will spend her whole life in a deep house compound, guarding a memorial tablet.
Who is willing?
The ancient people's clan concept was very strong, not to mention, once this matter is settled for a girl who is married in the dark, how will the other girls in the clan get married?
There is a sister who is married to a dead person, so how awkward would their husband-in-law's family be?
I am afraid that girls who married like this will not have a good life.
Of course Yang Jiabao disagreed with this dark marriage.
So I rejected this "marriage" very directly.
However, in Yangjiabao only three or five disciples from the clan became officials, and they still served as officials in other places, because the ancient rule was to "be an official in a different place" to prevent the local clan from becoming bigger.
Although they also benefited from it, it was just that no one bullied them, and the local county magistrate was also polite to them, and life was like this.
But the old man of the Hou family is a high-ranking official with a serious history, and he still has some connections in the court. The old man of the Hou family used his connections to put pressure on the Yang family. The people of the Yang family also have backbone. All the clansmen gritted their teeth and stiffened, but they didn't hold back!
After Miss Yang found out about this, she went to her parents and agreed to this ghost marriage.
The little celestial master saw this, and said in surprise: "Is she stupid? You agreed to this dark marriage?"
Needless to say, that Miss Yang is a ghost in a wedding dress.
"Look down." Dugu Haoyan brought him a cup of hot milk.
The little celestial master drank milk and continued to look down. Although it was an unofficial history, he remembered a lot of things.
Although the Yang family in Yangjiabao strongly opposed it, but the pressure from the outside world was getting bigger and bigger. Miss Yang said that her marriage is now a big problem, unless there is someone who is much more powerful than the old lady waiting to marry her. Miss Yang, otherwise, the Yang family will have to bow their heads if they don't.
But the odds of that happening are slim.
Because although Ms. Yang is considered a lady of the family, she is only a lady of the local family. The family is a rich family in the local area, but in the eyes of some high-ranking officials, it is still not enough. It is impossible to be a wife.
Although Miss Yang's grandfather was a fifth-rank official, he died when she was ten years old.
My father was just a juren, and he still lived at home. He didn't pass the Jinshi exam, let alone become an official.
Yangjiabao and Houjiacun are not at the same level now.
The old master of the Hou family also said that as long as they pass through the door, they will be treated like their own grandson and daughter-in-law. They are just widows and don’t have to worry about eating and drinking. The sincerity of the Hou family.
Finally, the people of Yangjiabao agreed to the marriage of Houjiacun.
And the Hou family is indeed very sincere, and the dowry is really generous, but the members of the Yang family did not leave a tael of silver, and all of them went back as dowries. Miss Yang will only be able to live alone in this life, so the dowry is generous. Carrying the dowry eight times was a sensation at the time. If it was a living marriage, it would be nothing, but a ghost marriage would be too much.
But no one dared to say one or two things, because although the old master Hou has retired, he is still alive, so there is still a little relationship. In this way, Miss Yang married into the door of the Hou family.
Worship with the big rooster, hold the memorial tablet, and sit alone until dawn in the wedding night in the bridal chamber.
But when it was time to return home, someone from the Hou family came to report the funeral, saying that the eldest mistress, Miss Yang, hanged herself on the wedding night and followed her deceased husband to the underground reunion.
The Yang family doesn't believe it at all, okay?
Although Ms. Yang did think about becoming a nun after her fiancé died, she definitely didn't want to die in the past.
How many daughters who are in their youth can't think of committing suicide at a meeting?
People from the Yang family went to the Hou family to make trouble, and the people from the Hou family are not easy to provoke. After the Yang family had been making trouble for more than a month, the old man of the Hou family died suddenly, and the Hou family quit, saying that they were forced to death by the Yang family. Waiting for the old lady.
The members of the Yang family refused to admit it, so the grievance was settled like this. From then on, the two families felt uncomfortable seeing each other for no reason.
After all, the Yang family failed to see the remains of their aunt.
Until later, the Yang family came out with a high-ranking official, who finally suppressed the arrogance of the Hou family. In addition, the Yang family also learned some ancestral craftsmanship, and finally solved this puzzle.
It turned out that the eldest son and grandson of the Hou family who died at that time were the Yin people of their generation.
Because when he was born, Mrs. Hou was still a fifth-rank official. Naturally, he was treated like an official. The life of a wealthy family is of course better. In addition, as soon as he was born, Mrs. Hou was promoted and made a fortune. Mrs. Hou thinks he is the eldest son The blessing brought by the grandson of the young master Hou, for this reason, the young master Hou is favored after many generations.
Not to mention rich clothes and good food since he was a child, he was still a dandy, and with his special abilities, this Young Master Hou is simply a bully. After getting tired of living in the world, he wanted to try his skills, so he led others to learn from him. He lost the craftsmanship of his ancestors and ran to rob graves.
It was okay at the beginning, he tried a little trick and found some ancient objects, and he gave those treasures to his grandfather, that is, the old man waiting, and the old man waited, took these treasures, cleaned them up, and then gave them to himself Shangguan.
I have to say here that both the Hou family and the Yang family are from the grassroots, ordinary people, not wealthy, that is, they don’t have much talent. The money to buy these Jinshi a good official position depends on their own management in the officialdom.
At that time, it was very difficult to climb up without a backer.
The old lady Hou used these things to pave the way for himself, so he climbed up to the position of the fourth rank, and later became an official with the title of the fourth rank. When he returned to his hometown, he also brought back a rich family property. The ordinary blue-brick large tile-roofed house was transformed into a mansion with four entrances and eight courtyards.
In the local area, even the magistrate would come to Hou's mansion from time to time to greet the old man.
But if you walk too much at night, you will always encounter ghosts!
No, just after getting engaged, Young Master Hou secretly went to see Miss Yang, and fell in love with her immediately. Although her family background was not satisfactory, she was pretty!
The young master Hou thought about getting something good.
What good can he get?
Young Master Hou's father and mother were county magistrates in the south, while he lived with his grandfather. Even the marriage was given by his grandfather. He is a scholar, but these years, his mind has been focused on robbing tombs, so there is no Go up for the Juren examination, but he is still young, so there is no need to rush.
Halfway through the sixth ceremony, he took people to a large tomb. Maybe it was because newborn calves were not afraid of tigers, or maybe it was because they were young and didn't know the depth, so they just went on like this.
As a result, among the eighteen people who went down, he was the only one who was caught, and the rest of Chang Sui and the book boy who followed him, that is, the tomb robbery team he organized, were wiped out.
Relying on a little craftsmanship from his ancestors, he barely held his breath, and when he returned home, before he could speak, he died when he saw his grandfather for the last time!
The Hou family was in chaos at the time, but the reason for the robbery and death cannot be said, it can only be said that it was a violent death.
As for the cause of death?
At that time, the Hou family ruled the sky with one hand in the local area. If their family didn't talk about it, who would dare to speculate?
In addition, the Hou family dealt with this matter very quickly, and did not give everyone time to react. If there was no trouble later, they must not know so much secret.
Why did I find out later?
Because several of the tombs stolen by the young master Hou belonged to descendants. They worshiped their ancestors once a year, but one family had a champion. When they returned home to worship their ancestors, they went to pay homage to their own ancestral tombs. It was found that the ancestral grave had been moved by people.
The ancestors of the number one scholar can be regarded as wealthy, otherwise it would not have been a few generations to give up a number one scholar.
They also have ethnography, which is a written record of the rise and fall of a family. It is similar to Shiji, except that Shiji records major events in the world, and the ethnography only records some things about the family. When the famous Confucianist was buried, he was buried with rich funeral objects, including a few special funeral objects, which were very precious.
The number one scholar later became an official, so he asked someone to look for it. The burial objects in the stolen tomb were all precious things, which was very conspicuous.
Whoever owns such a thing is a grave robber, or a descendant.
The one from the Yang family happened to be in the same discipline as Zhuangyuanlang, but at that time he was the No.1 Zhuangyuanlang, and he was the No.4 biography.
Jinshi of the same subject, and an official of the same dynasty, occasionally drank a little wine, got together and chatted, and then learned about it from the mouth of the number one scholar, and then thought that there was a treasure in the Hou family, who was with the number one scholar. Lang said exactly the same!
It was a pair of gold and jade unicorns.
It is a reward from the palace received by the ancestor of Zhuangyuan Lang, and it is not considered an imperial gift, because it is impossible to take the imperial gift to be buried with him, unless it is designated to be buried with someone.
Otherwise, it must be stored properly, and some people will even offer it up.
Later, the man from the Yang family became a high official and went back to his hometown to worship his ancestors, so he told the patriarch about it.
In the Yang family at that time, one stone caused a thousand waves!
Especially the Hou family, they had few people. Without newborns, several old people died of old age, and several young people died suddenly.
In the end, there was no other way. The then patriarch of the Hou family used the means of his ancestors to figure out that someone in their Hou family was unwilling to die and was acting like a demon.
So much so that the entire Hou family was cursed.
Although some bad things happened to the Yang family, but after the Yang family came to their senses, like the Hou family, they used the means of their ancestors to keep their family from having any bad things happen.
There are no more troubles in Yangjiabao, but not in Houjiacun.
