Crossing town house man and wife

But it's not easy for a little girl like Tortoise to handle the matter of stalking.

That night, when Yan Heng came to "sleep", Wu Ming told him about the matter again and asked him to find someone to check the shop selling sweet cakes.

"If you really find out the problem, don't be polite, you can clean it up as you want." Wu Ming said, "But before you find out anything, don't use torture indiscriminately, just kill people casually."

Yan Heng laughed, touched Wu Ming's disheveled black hair, and coaxed him: "Don't worry, everyone's whereabouts in the Sheriff's Mansion are being watched. If there is something wrong with your maid, Yao Zhong and the others would have reported it to me a long time ago." Here it is."

"Is everyone watching?" Wu Ming immediately raised his eyebrows, "Does that mean I'm also being watched?"

Yan Heng's smile froze, "Madam..."

"It's okay." Wu Ming waved his hand generously, "Just stare at it, just don't let me find out."

"Ma'am!" Why are you so attractive!

Yan Heng let out a low laugh, then turned over, put Wu Ming under him, and fought again.

At the end of World War II, Yan Heng hugged Wu Ming and was reluctant to leave, but Wu Ming remembered that there were still two concubines left unsaid, and hurriedly said: "By the way, do you still remember the two concubines who came here as a dowry?"

"Concubine?" Yan Heng was stunned for a moment before he remembered that there were indeed such two people, and immediately asked in a deep voice, "What's wrong with them again?"

"Not really, I came here because of my relationship." Wu Ming told him what they wanted to meet with him, plus his own answer, and then said, "If they want to go out of the house and be a good lady, you Just find someone to pick out two good-natured people—er, by the way, you didn’t consummate the house with them, did you?”

"How is it possible, I haven't even seen them face to face!" Yan Heng hurriedly dismissed, "Don't wait for them to make a decision, just drive them all out and get married."

"What's the point of forcing a marriage?" Wu Ming rolled his eyes, "When you first marry, you will follow your relatives, and when you remarry, you must always ask them about their own wishes. If they are reluctant to part with the fine clothes and food of the county guard's mansion, then they will stay as rice The worm is fine. Anyway, there are many idlers in your prefect's mansion, and two more are nothing."

"Nonsense, there are no idlers in the Sheriff's Mansion!" Yan Heng couldn't laugh or cry.

"Which one in your Xikua courtyard is free?" Wu Ming asked, "Why didn't you send them all out to marry?"

"They..." Yan Heng was at a loss for words.

"They have extraordinary backgrounds, you can't just marry them if you want to." Wu Ming explained the reason for him.

The two dowries of the Ruan family were probably written by Ruan Cheng's mother, and they were probably hired to help Gu Chong give birth to a child.What's more, concubines are always selected from concubines and side branches. Even if the real surname is Ruan, they are from a small family of low class. Even if they die in the county guard's mansion, their family members dare not come to question.

Yan Heng sighed, acquiescing to Wu Ming's sarcasm.

Today, unlike later generations, under the multiple oppressions of clan interests, feudal ethics, and social environment, women can't stand up if they want to be independent.Wu Ming also saw that both of them were still perfect, so he had the idea of ​​sending them out to remarry.If Ruji and others have already been adopted by Yan Heng, then forcing them to remarry is tantamount to forcing them to die, and it would be better to just send a rope to them.

"Let them choose for themselves. If they really have the backbone to be poor rather than concubines of the rich, I don't mind giving them a little more dowry and helping them as much as I can." Wu Ming continued, "If you don't Come here, I'd rather be a concubine of a hero than a concubine, then let them eat and die in the yard of a great hero like you, anyway, you can't afford to support them."

Has a beggar ever had a second wife?If they couldn't afford it, there wouldn't be so many women in this mansion.

But then, Wu Ming changed his voice, "Also, I just told you to keep them, but I didn't tell you to sleep in their house. If you can't control your three legs in the future, just admit that you are widowed It's fine if you have a disease, don't talk nonsense about what I asked you to do with them."

"I thought Madam was really virtuous and generous." Yan Heng laughed immediately, hugged Wu Ming into his arms and kissed him hard, "Madam, don't worry, I will never go to Xikuayuan again—— —Of course, you are not allowed to go there either!"

"Who cares!" Wu Ming rolled his eyes, but he didn't mention any unpleasant topics like whether there will be newcomers entering the mansion in the future.

The human heart is the most difficult thing to measure, and it may change due to some coincidence at any time.What's more, he didn't plan to stay by Yan Heng's side for the rest of his life. It's very likely that Yan Heng's enthusiasm hasn't subsided yet, and he's going to slap his ass and leave first.

Do unto others, do not impose on others.

He couldn't even give Yan Heng anything, so naturally he wouldn't ask Yan Heng for it.

On the day when he decided to accept Yan Heng's courtship, Wu Ming had already defined the relationship between the two of them, but it was just that they were drunk today, and happy every day counted.

Two days later, that is, the last day of the year, which is often called New Year's Eve in later generations, one of the two concubines sent a letter to Wu Ming, saying that he was willing to leave the house to get married, and he just wanted to ask Wu Ming to marry him. It is best to choose a family with a simple relationship and no father or mother. If Wu Mingzhen is willing to subsidize the dowry, the family status almost doesn't matter.

There are a lot of requirements, but because of this, it seems to be more sincere.

But it was the New Year, and it took time to pick someone, so Wu Ming asked Jin Jiao to send a message back, asking the concubine to wait patiently for a while, and then called Yao Chong over to let him find time responsible for this.

After listening, Yao Zhong was speechless for a while.

He rushed over in his busy schedule, thinking that there was something important, but he never thought that he was looking for a woman's husband's house.

But Yao Zhong did not shirk his refusal.

There are a lot of bachelors in the barracks, maybe not many without father and mother, but there are many people who come from other counties and don't plan to go home or can't go home for the rest of their lives.Anyway, no matter which of the two concubines is very good-looking, and the body has never been touched by the county guard, it is not difficult to find a general to marry.

Yao Zhong immediately responded to the matter, only emphasizing that it would take a few days before he could choose Wu Ming.

Wu Ming is not in a hurry, just let him not forget.

After sending Yao Chong away, Aunt Lao entered the house with gold horns and silver horns, and urged Wu Ming to wash and change clothes.

There is a family banquet tonight, although the participants are only Yan Heng and a group of women in the sheriff's mansion, but as the wife of the sheriff, Wu Ming still has to dress carefully and dress up to attend.

Wu Ming sighed, stood up, and stretched out his hands to be at the mercy of Aunt Lao.

Cleansing the face, combing hair, dressing, wearing a crown... After a series of processes, Wu Ming has lost his appetite.

Aunt Lao wanted to explain to him the rules of the family banquet, but Wu Ming finally couldn't hold back and interrupted, "There are no outsiders today, so don't talk too much, and we'll talk about it tomorrow when we go to participate in the Laoshizi sacrifice."

"No." Aunt Lao smiled slightly and said no more.

As soon as his side was ready, Yan Heng came to pick him up.

After the wedding, it was the first time Yan Heng saw Wu Ming dressed up in fancy clothes. When he first entered the door, he was stunned for a few seconds before he dared to recognize him.

It's no wonder that Yan Heng, it's because Wu Ming is too casual on weekdays, he often comes around however he feels comfortable, whether he's sitting or not, standing or not, only one face is acceptable.Today, restrained by the fine clothes and the wide belt, the back is straightened, the airs are raised unconsciously, the eyebrows and eyes are also specially modified by Aunt Lao, and then set off with gold and precious jade, immediately transformed from a killer to a nobleman , It's a different person from usual.

"Madam." Yan Heng stepped forward quickly, took Wu Ming's hands in his hands, and sighed, "No wonder the saying goes: A man depends on his clothes and a horse depends on his saddle. Madam dressed like this is like walking out of a painting. .”

"Are you praising me or hurting me?" Wu Ming rolled his eyes and pulled his hand back, "There is no need to answer, hurry up, go back early, so I can take off this armor-like thing and catch my breath! "

The real Qin and Han ancient costumes are not like the self-righteous Hanfu of later generations, which are only wrapped in a thin layer of curtains. As the saying goes, "clothes are dressed in brocade clothes, and brocade clothes are worn". The printing and dyeing technology is not developed these days, so it can only be displayed by layers. Aesthetics, from bottoms worn close to the body to gauze gowns worn outside, even in summer, three or five layers are required to be considered formal.

Japan's Twelve Unlined Clothes were passed down from China, but at that time, Japan's textile technology was too poor to produce light and thin fabrics such as "plain gauze gowns". The nobles only knew that the higher the status, the more they wore. But she didn't know that the clothes were not the other clothes, so she directly wrapped twelve layers of cloth that didn't even have a difference in thickness, making a joke out of delicate and elegant clothes.

But no matter how light and thin it is, it is not easy to wear so many layers of clothes. The feeling after wearing it is comparable to the whalebone corset that was once popular in Europe.Why did the portraits and statues before the Qin Dynasty all hold their chests up and their bodies high?It is because I wear too many clothes and shape my body too much, it is impossible to slouch my shoulders.

Yan Heng was used to wearing such clothes, so he didn't think much of it, but at tonight's family banquet, Mrs. Ying will also be present, so it would be disrespectful to be late.

Of course, if possible, Ying Shi would prefer that the two of them would not block her eyes.

But the problem is that it's impossible.

"Madam, please." Yan Heng smiled slightly and led Wu Ming out.

The family banquet was held in a flower hall specially used for banquets in the backyard. When Yan Heng and Wu Ming entered, Ying Shi was already sitting, and the five concubines including Ya Ji and Ru Ji had already taken their positions.

Seeing Yan Heng and Wu Ming coming in, the five concubines hurriedly got up to greet them.

Although Ying didn't need to salute, he had to stand up.

Ru Ji's stomach is not yet obvious, but her clothes have been changed into looser styles, and her face is no longer covered in makeup. With the other four concubines competing for beauty, she looks like an ugly duckling mixed with a flock of swans.

The two concubines who followed "Ruan Cheng" as a dowry did not get the chance to attend the family banquet, but a young girl with an unmarried girl's hair bun sat next to Ying's, and she could be seen as a lady from everyone by her sitting posture. , and the appearance can also be called charming.

Seems a little familiar?

Wu Ming looked at the girl suspiciously, and quickly looked down at the girl.

When she lowered her head like this, Wu Ming remembered the reason for the familiarity.

On the day he went to Ying's courtyard to start a killing spree, this woman had appeared outside the courtyard, and it was probably Yan Heng's other cousin, He Qianqian.

In the past two days, Aunt Lao had intentionally or unintentionally whispered in front of him that Ying had been very dependent on He Qianqian since her serious illness, and that she would invite her to accompany her every day.Inevitably, there were more gossips in the Sheriff's Mansion, and many people felt that the young lady of the He family was going to "grow up" in the Sheriff's Mansion.

But the Ying family can't marry a wife and have children for Yan Heng. It's useless for her to like a woman Yan Heng doesn't like.

Wu Ming didn't take He Qianqian seriously either, and after a few glances, he followed Yan Heng to the seat.
