Smoke curls, dogs bark and chickens crow; The sun is setting in the west, and the sky is full of red clouds.

The dusk in Xiahe Village gives people a warm and comfortable feeling, and you won't get tired of watching it no matter how many times you watch it.

Zhu Ping'an returned to Xiahe Village from the house of the rich man Li in the setting sun, and before he arrived at the door of his house, he heard a burst of noise and noise, and from a distance, there were many people in the village surrounding his door.

What's wrong?

Zhu Ping'an walked over with doubts, and the villagers who were watching the excitement at the door of their homes saw Zhu Ping'an coming, and they greeted him one after another and made way for Zhu Ping'an. Zhu Ping'an also responded one by one, and walked in from the way the villagers got out of the way.

Then I saw my grandfather, grandmother and uncle's family in front of my house, and my mother Chen and Zhu's father were also there, and my mother Chen's face was not very good.

The uncle's family is noisy, but it's not with his own family.

After Zhu Ping'an said hello to his grandfather and grandmother, he walked to his parents, looked at the noisy uncle's family, and then looked at the villagers who were full of boos and jokes, and then walked to the noisy uncle's family to persuade them.

"Uncle, aunt, and Brother Jun, what are you doing standing at the door, go into the house, let's sit and drink a cup of tea and talk slowly."

The so-called family ugliness cannot be publicized, even if the family is separated, but it can't write a single Zhu character in one stroke.

The eldest aunt was educating Zhu Pingjun to be energetic, and he didn't want to go into the house, but the uncle listened to Zhu Ping'an's persuasion and nodded very elegantly, and the grandmother said a word to the eldest aunt, and then the eldest aunt took Zhu Pingjun's arm and followed the grandmother into Zhu Ping'an's house.

As the uncle's family entered Zhu Ping'an's house, the onlookers also said hello to Chen and the others and went home.

Zhu Ping'an followed his parents into the house last, and when he walked to the house, he found that the uncle's family was still arguing with themselves in the house, and no one could stop it.

From the quarrel of the uncle's family, Zhu Ping'an generally understood what was going on, mainly around the intra-family disputes caused by telling Zhu Pingjun about his relatives, a few days ago, a matchmaker found the eldest aunt and wanted to tell Zhu Pingjun a family matter. It is said that the woman's family is not bad, the woman's father is still a showman, and there is a lot of good land in the family. He was also very rich. The aunt was happy when she heard it, but she didn't agree on the spot, and when she found the uncle, the uncle heard that the woman's father was Xiucai. Naturally, I am also very happy, I have a talented family, and I will be very beneficial in the future.

In addition, these days, the uncle and aunt are overwhelmed by the happy events of Zhu Ping'an's family, and their own family finally has great things. Look at it, the old man Xiucai took the initiative to marry his own family, how face-saving, this belongs to Gao Pan. The uncle and aunt were both very satisfied, and the grandfather and grandmother also agreed, but when they thought that Zhu Pingjun's tendon was wrong, they just didn't agree.

In ancient times, it was important to pay attention to the words of the matchmaker and the order of the parents, and the uncle and the aunt agreed to this family affair in the name of their parents, even if the order of the parents also needed Zhu Pingjun's cooperation. However, this product did not cooperate, and he did not agree, so it led to this noisy scene.

"Jun'er, just listen to your mother's advice, and obediently follow the king's matchmaker." The eldest aunt persuaded bitterly.

"Don't go to Nacai, don't go!"

Zhu Pingjun's head was raised, his arms were hugged, his feet were on the ground, and the whole person swayed.

Nacai is almost the same as today's blind date. In ancient times. Chinese women are often "born in the depths of the boudoir and no one knows whether they are Yan or their mothers". After the matchmaker agrees, the man goes to the woman's house for the first time under the matchmaker's sideline, which is called "visiting relatives". It is also known as "blind date". Kissing is a key part of whether a marriage can be successful. Especially the man, he should be cautious and important, behave well, and strive to impress the hearts of the woman's parents and win the favor of the woman. After that, the man prepares a gift and goes to the woman's house to propose. Complete Nacai.

Zhu Pingjun is so resolute not to accept it, the marriage will naturally not be successful, the uncle and the aunt are looking forward to this marriage to increase the face of the long house, so they will naturally treat Zhu Pingjun with both soft and hard.

"Jun'er, how could my mother harm you. The woman's family is good, her father is a talented man, and there are dozens of acres of fertile land at home, if you marry this girl, you will not have to worry about food and clothing in the future. My mother has criticized the hexagram, you are a Wenqu star, maybe you should be here, your father-in-law is a talented man, and he can also tutor you in your studies, and you can take the top exam in the future. The eldest aunt persuaded Zhu Pingjun bitterly.

"Don't go, mother, you all say that I am Wenqu Xing, why should I rely on them, haven't you heard of it, the mountains will fall, the water will flow, and you have to rely on yourself."

Zhu Pingjun shook his legs, his face was confident, and his face was full of energy.

Wenqu star descends to earth?

Looking at Zhu Pingjun, who was swaying his legs, full of energy, and confident that he could ride a tiger into the water and catch a dragon when he went up the mountain, Zhu Ping'an felt that a group of grass and mud horses were whizzing above his head. It is said that the last time he went to visit Mr. Sun, Mr. Sun was still lamenting that Zhu Pingjun's rotten wood could not be carved, and the village's reputation for Zhu Pingjun was quite negative

Listening to Zhu Pingjun say in a hurry: The mountains will fall, the water will flow, and you have to rely on yourself.

In Zhu Ping'an's heart, he inexplicably wanted to correct him: the mountains will fall, the water will run, and he has no fart ability on his own, how good is this!! Of course, Zhu Ping'an will not say it.

"On your own? You're waiting to drink the northwest wind. Uncle was angry, but he told the truth.

"Heh, why can't I rely on myself, isn't it because of my family's intention to marry our family this time. My mother said it just now, and the matchmaker said it herself, saying that the girl took a fancy to me at a glance! ”

Zhu Pingjun raised his head with a proud face.

"Then why don't you go?" Uncle looked angry.

"What a big husband can't do without a wife! I haven't gone on a blind date yet, but the daughter of the Xiucai family fell in love with me at a glance. When I go to the examination room next year, I will be a talented girl like a showman, a girl from a showman's family."

Zhu Pingjun said, his face full of disdain.

Uh, this is to be carried away by the sudden surprise, Zhu Ping'an was a little speechless, Brother Jun took the imperial examination too easily, and said that the imperial examination seemed to be held by his own family.

Moreover, Zhu Ping'an is still very puzzled about the matchmaker that Wang matchmaker told Zhu Pingjun. It's not that I look down on Brother Jun, but simply analyze the facts, Brother Jun has achieved nothing now, his reputation in the village is not good, and the uncle has not been admitted to Xiucai in the annual examination; The woman is a Xiucai family, and there are dozens of acres of fertile land at home, you can find a better one, how could you take a fancy to Brother Jun at a glance, love at first sight or something, it's all nonsense in the novel, especially in the feudal Ming Dynasty, women are raised in the deep boudoir, especially the Xiucai family, etiquette is definitely stricter, then there will be a chance to take a fancy to Brother Jun outside, unless

Thinking of this, Zhu Ping'an asked the eldest aunt without a trace, "Auntie, is it the matchmaker Wang who said that the girl took a fancy to Brother Jun at a glance?" ”

When the eldest aunt heard this, her face was proud, "That's not good, the princess swore to the sky that the girl took a fancy to your handsome brother at a glance, and she also swore that if there was a lie, she would find me ten taels of silver." ”

"Auntie, well, let's inquire about this girl privately before you should leave this family. If it's good, I'm sure Brother Jun will go. Hearing this, Zhu Ping'an had a strange look on his face, and he stopped talking.

The matchmaker is completely trying to cover up.

Zhu Ping'an vaguely guessed that the girl from the Xiucai family should have a physical problem, if she guessed correctly, maybe she was blind in one eye. Otherwise, you should be able to find a better one. Of course, you can't say this at will, in Daming, a woman's reputation is simply heavier than life, and she can't say unfounded things irresponsibly at will.

If the uncle's family responds in a hurry, and when they marry home and find that the new daughter-in-law is really blind in one eye, and then find a matchmaker theory, it is estimated that there will be the following dialogue.

Auntie: "Lao Wang, the daughter-in-law you introduced to my Jun'er is blind in one eye!" You pay me money, and give me ten taels more. When you said a lie, you asked me for ten taels of silver! ”

Mrs. Wang: "There is one eye blind. ”

Auntie: "You lied to us, why didn't you tell us at the beginning, give money." ”

Mrs. Wang: "Why didn't I tell you!" At that time, I said, that girl took a fancy to your handsome family at a glance! ”

After Zhu Ping'an kindly reminded the eldest aunt, the eldest aunt looked at Zhu Ping'an with a strange gaze, feeling that Zhu Ping'an might be jealous that his handsome son had found a good family.

"Hmm."

So the eldest aunt just prevaricated, and didn't pay attention to Zhu Ping'an's words at all. (To be continued.) )
