Qi An couldn't stop begging, but no one else stopped him, Qi Jiang was extremely embarrassed.

But looking at Qi An's pitiful appearance crying like pear blossoms and rain, and thinking of Qi An's kind mother, Qi Jiang pursed his lips, and finally said hello.

Qi Jiang agreed? !

Qi An couldn't believe it for a moment: "Really!"

Qi Jiang nodded sadly: "Well...you take good care of your mother, I... Anyway, my mother is long gone, I don't care."

Qi An hugged Qi Jiang and kept saying thank you.

The patriarch and the others sighed, but they didn't stop them after all.

After deciding on the candidate, everyone left the ancestral hall one after another.Before going out, Qi Wu glanced at Qi Jiang who was still sitting in the corner, and shook his head helplessly.

Qi Jiang is not a bad person.

But Qi Wu was too busy to take care of himself, and didn't have the heart to help Qi Jiang escape the plot line of entering the palace.And...Qi Jiang has the aura of the protagonist, Qi Wu feels that as a villain cannon fodder, he should not care about whether the bowl in front of others is hot without cooling his porridge. Is it good or bad for others?

Although Qi Wu firmly felt that entering the palace was not a good thing.Not for him as cannon fodder, and not necessarily for the protagonist Shou Qi Jiang... After all, the protagonist Gong Shou followed the path of deep sadomasochistic love.

But that's the emotional line of the protagonist after all, so it's better not to worry about it.

Qi Wu thought to himself, it's better not to get too involved with the main plot line.

After the Qi clan prepared their dowry and the envoy of Da Zhou came to pick them up and leave, he found an opportunity to run away on the road, and no one would use him as cannon fodder from now on.

……

Back at Yuanshen's residence, Qi Wu took a basin to the well outside the house to fetch water for washing.

Drilling well water was a bit laborious. Although Qi Wu had the memory of the original body, he didn't have the muscle memory of the original body. It took him several attempts to successfully fetch half a bucket of water.

The bucket bumped into the wall of the well as it went up, and sporadic dust particles fell into the bucket as the water spilled out, so the water that was pumped up didn't look very clean.

Qi Wu who was going to fetch water to wash the tub first, and then to wash with water: "..."

too difficult.

This day is not human.

He rolled up his sleeves, poured out the water with impurities in the basin, and was about to recharge his energy to fetch water again, when Qi Chi who lived in the room next to him came over with a basin.

Seeing Qi Wu's trembling movement of fetching water, Qi Chi sighed, and stretched out his hand to take the rope pulling the bucket: "Let me do it."

Although the original body is reticent, he still knows how to fetch water for daily needs.However, Qi Chi didn't have any doubts about Qi Wu's unfamiliar movements.The fact that Qi Wu and Qi Jiang were selected to be sent to the palace has spread widely in a short period of time. After all, everyone is very concerned about this matter.

So Qi Chi only thought that Qi Wu was absent-minded because of this matter, and while fetching water, he comforted him: "Since it's already decided, let's think about the good, after all, it's in the palace, and your face is in our clan." They are all top-notch and good-looking, and they will only attract more attention if they go out... The emperor suddenly wanted to have a baby with our Qi clan, and it was probably because he was interested in our characteristics. There is always some advantage."

Qi Chi's tone was good, and he helped fetch water again, so Qi Wu's attitude was also very gentle: "Yes, I know. Thank you."

Although others helped to fetch the water, Qi Wu still rinsed the wooden basin first, and then poured out the first water.Seeing this, Qi Chi didn't say much, and poured clear and dry well water into his basin again.

So Qi Wu thanked him again.

Holding a wooden basin of water, Qi Wu returned to the house.

Qi Chi looked at his thin back and sighed sympathetically.

In fact, Qi Wu is still a few months away.Qi Chi thought to himself, if Qi Wu is full and goes through a hot period, he will not meet the requirements of the emperor of the Great Zhou this time, and he will not be sent to the palace.Unfortunately, only a few months away.

According to the characteristics of the Qi people who have a fever period and the tacit rules of the family, after the full period, the Qi people can go outside to find ordinary men to relieve the problem of fever. They can go out for a few days during the fever period every month, or they can go out. After going out, she was pregnant with a child and then came back.

Anyway, after being pregnant once, the man from the Qi clan won't have such a severe fever again, and can easily survive his daily activities without looking for another man.

Of course, even people from the Qi clan can't go out and come back at will from the land of the Qi clan.You can come back when you are pregnant with a child, but you cannot come back if the child is already born, regardless of whether the child born is from the Qi tribe or not.To put it bluntly, children must be born in the land of the Qi clan to live in the land of the Qi clan.

If the child born is an ordinary boy or girl, the Qi people who gave birth to the child must send the child back to the biological father, otherwise the Qi people can no longer stay in the clan land and can only leave with the child.

……

Poured some water from the wooden basin into another small basin, rinsed the small basin briefly, at least to comfort the cleanliness, Qi Wu poured some more water, without using a cloth towel, just scooped up a handful Water splashed in the face.

The problem of washing the face can be dealt with, but brushing teeth is not easy.

The "toothbrush" commonly used in the fields of the Qi people is made of willow branches, and there is no special "toothpaste", so green salt is used.Although there is a new toothbrush, Qi Wu is not used to it, and the taste of green salt is also very strange.

Qi Wu, who was spoiled and spoiled, just brushed his teeth, and felt despair for the first time... He found that he didn't feel any despair when he was wearing a book!

After brushing his teeth firmly, Qi Wu felt that he was sweating all over.

So he found a clean cloth towel again, wiped his body with water, and finally washed his feet... Usually, washing is used to relax the muscles and bones, but this time washing before going to bed makes people even more tired.

Qi Wu lay down on the bed exhausted, and then managed to lose sleep all night.Young Master Qi Wu, who is used to sleeping on high-grade mattresses and soft and light quilts, is not used to sleeping in this room where the wind blows, the bed board is so hard, and the quilt feels astringent.

In the early morning, he turned over and sat up with the rooster crowing, and Qi Wu watched the sun slowly rise sadly.

"Sure enough, I'm more suitable to be the eldest young master who doesn't need to use hands and brains." Qi Wu said with deep emotion.

Although this is the gathering place where Qi clansmen live together, there are not many people in the clan land, the old and the young add up to only a hundred people, and the clansmen have three meals a day, and then they go from house to house. distributed by the number of people.

The person who came to Qi Wu's house to deliver breakfast today happened to be the same Qi Jiu who came to ask him to go to the ancestral hall last night.Qi Jiu put down a breakfast, and brought another sentence to Qi Wu by the way: "The patriarch said, let you go to the ancestral hall after eating too early, and discuss about preparing... dowry for you and Qi Jiang."

Qi Wu gave a "hmm" and replied calmly, "Thank you."

Qi Jiu glanced at Qi Wu's dark eyes again, shook his head and left.

Breakfast is porridge and steamed buns. The porridge is very thick with a little sugar added, which is sweet, and the white flour steamed buns are also very strong.Although it wasn't a very rich breakfast, it wasn't bad, it just didn't suit Qi Wu's liking.But he still finished eating seriously.

Qi Wu regretted his life, thinking that he suffered from insomnia all night, if he didn't sleep well, he should at least eat well, otherwise what would he do if he died suddenly? Those who didn't know thought he died on a hunger strike to avoid entering the palace. .

What a shame.

After breakfast, Qi Wu put the food box outside the door, and Qi Jiu will come to take it back later.

Then Qi Wu went to the ancestral hall to discuss his dowry.

Although the living conditions of the Qi people are very average, this is mainly affected by the location of the clan land, and most of the Qi people who are willing to stay in the clan land honestly have no pursuit of a good life, just eat enough and wear warm clothes. .So at first glance they seem to be very poor, but in fact the Qi people are not poor, they can even be considered very rich.

The Qi people in the ethnic group do not worry about their daily livelihood. They eat delicious big pot meals day after day. Except for the work of purchasing, cooking and delivering meals in shifts, they are actually in a panic.

In the final analysis, it was because of his obedience to Da Zhou.

Although the Qi clan is only a small clan, after being brought under the jurisdiction of the Great Zhou, the Qi clan would also offer a small gift to the emperor every year on the emperor's birthday and during the Chinese New Year—it is really thin, that is, the Qi clan members themselves are idle in their daily lives. It's just some gadgets that I made up by hand when I have nothing to do and chat.

Anyway, people outside look down on the Qi clan, and they all know that the Qi clan lives in a small remote place with a bad environment. When the clan really presents something good once, it attracts attention and at the same time it is afraid of causing jealousy, and it will take more and more energy to prepare the gift later, so these years the clan leader has become more and more broken, and randomly collects things from the clansmen. Putting it together is a gift.

In this regard, the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty was indeed never angry. Not only was he not angry, but he would reward a lot of valuable things every time.And those things, except for a little gold and silver used in the purchase, were basically untouched, and they were all accumulated in the warehouse.Over the past few decades, the Qi family even opened several more houses as warehouses in order to store the rewards of the Great Zhou, and the things in them were filled to the brim.

All in all—the Qi family is very rich, and Qi Wu is very jealous.

When Qi Wu arrived at the ancestral hall, Qi Jiang had already arrived.

The slender Qi Jiang sat inside, surrounded by seven or eight patriarchs and elders, which made Qi Jiang even more pitiful.

Qi Wu coughed lightly, walked in and called people to say hello.

The patriarch nodded: "Come on, sit down."

Qi Wu went to the seat next to Qi Jiang and sat down, and then the patriarch took out two pieces of red paper of the same size, length and width and handed them to them: "Although the envoy didn't ask for it, you are going to marry into the palace after all. To compensate you, or to show respect to the Great Zhou Emperor, your dowry is indispensable."

"Although your dowry itself was given to the clan before the Great Zhou Dynasty, our clan has no source of money to make a living, and it's not that the reward from the Great Zhou Dynasty was presented as a tribute, but it was just brought back to the palace as your dowry for you. It’s just about the body, I think the emperor of Zhou Dynasty will not be dissatisfied, so you can relax.”

Qi Wu looked down at the dowry list in his hand... I have to say, the patriarch is quite generous.Perhaps because of his special cooperation this time, the patriarch and the others felt even more sorry. The dowry list in their hands was even a little richer than in the original book.

The patriarch said slowly: "The clan treats you equally, and the dowry list is the same. In addition to this list, you can also go to the warehouse to pick two things you like and add them to the dowry. What else do you want to say? You can say anything."

Qi Jiang shook his head honestly: "I have nothing to say."

The patriarch nodded, then looked at Qi Wu.

Qi Wu showed a cute and docile smile: "Grandpa patriarch, I don't have any opinion on the dowry list, but I want to have a small discussion, I don't know if it is possible..."

Old people are always more patient with obedient juniors, not to mention Qi Wu is the one who is going to enter the palace now.So the patriarch nodded: "Go ahead."
