In Xianyang City, where the lights fall at night, the song and swallow dance of the song and the garden theater of the restaurant, soon began to spread the details of the blind date conference held by the Marquis of Qinghe, especially for the five colleges are even more exciting and lively, many students who participated in the blind date are surrounded by the good seniors in the dormitory and playground, and inquire in detail about the process of the blind date, and then whether it is the folk or the five colleges, there are all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred.

In this era, men and women are married, few have heard of free love, of course, there are, such as Chen Xu and Shui Qingrou, Yu Wuya and Xia Zijin, etc., the poorer the commoners, the more free they are to get married, many of them have the feelings of childhood sweethearts, or they have been neighbors or relatives since childhood, and the richer and more powerful the family, the more basically there is no freedom of choice for marriage.

The life of the parents, the words of the matchmaker.

The elders arranged the marriage in a word.

In the future, the people who will accompany you to eat and sleep will not be able to choose by yourself, and it is okay if you like the personality and appearance, if you don't like it, you can only endure it for a lifetime.

Of course, it's not that you can't choose at all, but your final choice is still in line with the interests of the family, the right family, and the identity and status of the family.

For example, the emperor's daughter, she doesn't have the right to choose at all when she marries, even if Ying Shiyan likes Chen Xu, it's just because she is just the right age and just fits the arrangement of the first emperor, as for Meng Wan, it is purely an additive, even his father has no right to choose, and it was arranged by the emperor.

But they were very happy after they got married.

Therefore, in ancient times, marriages were not unsatisfactory, in fact, many families were very happy and happy, and husbands and wives respected and loved each other and grew old together, but in the era of free love in later generations, there were many family contradictions, and divorce was as embarrassing as a commonplace.

Under the personal control of Chen Xu and the personal leadership of the three ladies, more than 100 maids and maids in the Qinghe Marquis Mansion all found their favorite men in this blind date activity, and also gave their own carefully made sachets and folding fans and other common items for men to go out as gifts.

Everyone knows that this opportunity is not easy to come by, and once you are too picky and misses, you may end up being married by the three ladies to a servant or a fiefdom in a housekeeper, which will definitely be regretted for a lifetime.

What's more, the students of the five colleges are all students who have undergone strict assessments, even if they don't like their appearance very much, they are not as kind and handsome as Hou Ye, or their personality and temper are not familiar, they are not as gentle and considerate as Hou Ye, or they have some messy bad habits, such as not paying attention to hygiene, like to visit Quyuan to drink and play with little ladies, it is better for Hou Ye to take a bath with soap every day, and return home on time every day, take turns to pamper his wife and concubine, etc.

But in any case, from today onwards, their lives will be very different.

In the next few days, not only did the Daqin Metropolis Daily publish the detailed process of the Qinghe Marquis Mansion holding this unique blind date conference with eye-catching headlines, which quickly became a hot topic that Xianyang household names talked about, and at the same time, the Qinghe Marquis Mansion also made a large-scale purchase of dowry, preparing to marry the successful maids and maids of the blind date as soon as possible, and at the same time of marrying the daughters, the Qinghe Marquis Mansion was also everywhere to collect and buy a new batch of small maids to train and hand over the daily work of the Hou Mansion.

Chen Xu attaches great importance to marrying this time, after all, these maids and maids are nominally his women, Chen Xu sent a warrant to the household department, and soon the household registration of these maids has changed from slaves to commoners, and everyone has obtained a new household registration book and identity card, with these things, they can marry justifiably in the future.

In the following time, every day, matchmakers hired by the parents of students from the five major colleges came to the Qinghe Marquis Mansion to propose marriage, and Chen Xu asked the housekeeper to handle the reception and operation of the three books and six ceremonies.

As the housekeeper of the Qinghe Marquis Mansion personally arranged by the First Emperor, Zhao Lun's identity and status are self-evident, he has royal blood, and letting a royal family come to watch the family of the Qinghe Marquis is both a kind of respect and an attitude.

Of course, Zhao Lun has also arranged the affairs of the Hou Mansion in an orderly manner over the years, although Chen Xu earns money like a big river, but he is still very careful and cautious in terms of income and expenditure, and he saves Chen Xu a lot of money by careful budgeting, and there are large carts and carts of gifts all year round, so the Qinghe Hou Mansion and the Qinghe Courtyard have already piled up more than ten warehouses have already been piled up, how many treasures are in them Chen Xu's eyes are completely black, but the old housekeeper is clear, how many silks, how many brocades, how many pearls, How many catties of gold, how many boxes of jade treasures, how many leather ivory, rhino horn, ginseng, etc., as for ordinary cloth and porcelain, it can only be described by a car, and cannot be counted.

Most of the young students of the five colleges come from ordinary civilian families, have read some books and know a lot of words, because no one can only be an ordinary scribe or helper, or follow some of the disciples of the hundred families to eat and drink, many are still outsiders, parents and elders are not in Xianyang, and some although the family is in Xianyang, but there are also parents who are dead and the family is surrounded by four walls, anyway, the situation is very complicated, and it can even be said that there are many poor people who can't afford to marry a wife.

But in view of these backbones of the future construction of Daqin, Chen Xu instructed the wedding to be simple, and the three books and six ceremonies should be prepared.

Poverty is not terrible, and almost all of these people will become prominent people in the future.

As the first batch of students who grew up after his reform of Daqin, Chen Xu had high hopes for them, so he was also very generous in terms of dowry, requiring each maid to marry 10,000 yuan in addition to money, but also to buy auspicious clothes, bedding, wooden boxes, tableware, porcelain, cloth, jewelry, winter clothes, summer clothes, rice noodles, salted meat and other dowries, worth more than 5,000 yuan, and finally in order to express joy, Chen Xu also asked the enamel factory to quickly produce a batch of enamel basins, just like the kind of enamel basins painted with flowers, birds, insects and fish and big red characters in later generations, Prepare some soap and a piece of silk with a big red hijab.

In order to make these seemingly simple wedding preparations more lively, Chen Xu also asked the five colleges to organize a special welcoming team, led by the school's teachers and officials, to make this large-scale collective wedding lively, not only to make the poor students who marry feel embarrassed, but also not to let their maids and maids look shabby.

Since the beginning of April, the whole Xianyang has suddenly become lively again.

On the road leading to the Qinghe Villa at the west gate of the city, every day at about the hour, you can see a long team of people riding horses and cars, sometimes two or three, sometimes seven or eight, each of them is blowing and playing lively, and constantly throwing some candy and biscuits along the way, causing passers-by and countless children to compete and laugh.

And such a collective marriage of the peculiar scenery has also aroused the widespread interest of the people of Xianyang, many people are full of food and drink all day and night to wait near the West Gate to see the lively, every carriage from the Qinghe Courtyard to welcome the family, through the window can see a bride wearing a red auspicious dress covered with a red hijab, and also wearing a young student wearing a red silk flower on the chest of the auspicious dress, all of them are smiling brightly riding in front of the carriage, waving on all sides to express their excitement, the silk bamboo bell chime in the greeting team melodious and pleasant, Most of the people who cheered and cheered along the way were also seniors from their respective colleges.

This kind of novel and inexplicable collective wedding is not only interested in ordinary people, but also in the disciples of hundreds of families, wealthy businessmen and princes and princes, so after the procession of welcoming relatives into the city, you can see that the second floor of the Quyuan Miscellaneous House on both sides of the street is full of all kinds of men wearing gorgeous costumes and brocade robes, and there are many noble ladies and girls with thousands of manners standing in the crowd on both sides of the street, all pointing to watch and discuss this unique and lively wedding held by the Marquis of Qinghe.

"What a beautiful bride!"

"This auspicious costume is said to be designed by the eldest lady of Qinghe Hou, Shui, and customized by the Nishang Garment Factory......"

"I saw that the enamel basin on the carriage was not, I heard that it was specially made by the Marquis of Qinghe for these married maids, and one cost more than five hundred yuan!"

"Not only that, but I heard that there are also soap accessories, and there are several sets of clothes and bedding in summer and winter!"

"Mother, I also have to wear this kind of auspicious dress and cover my red hijab when I get married~" A young girl in the crowd grabbed the arm of a woman next to her and begged.

"Okay~" Madame touched the girl's hair lovingly and nodded.

"Tsk, a slave girl can get married so lively!"

"It's just lively, the dowry alone can make me feel ashamed!"

"Yes, I heard that there are 10,000 coins alone, and 5,000 dollars of clothes and bedding......"

"So much money, enough for a small family to live in peace for several years!"

"Of course, woohoo lament, a certain was born a few years early, otherwise a few years younger, maybe he could be admitted to the five colleges, not only to hold the beauty, but also to get this large amount of money out of thin air!"

"Yes, the old man was born thirty years early, otherwise there would be a chance to the maid of the Marquis of Qinghe, it must be a very beautiful thing!"

A group of young scribes in their twenties and thirties gathered on the side of the road to watch and give instructions, and next to them, a sloppy and obscene-looking half-drawn old man also pulled his sparse beard and echoed it.

"Hey, you old pervert, be careful of the Qinghe Hou who uses the Taiyi Divine Thunder to kill you with nonsense!" A young scribe next to him rolled his eyes in disdain.

", God Thunder is here, stay away from this old thing!" With an exclamation, the onlookers instantly scattered with a swing and hula, and the old man was left alone in the center.

"Bang~~"

Almost at the same time as the people dispersed, suddenly a divine thunder fireworks at the city gate exploded dozens of feet in the air, although there were no fireworks, but the explosion like thunder only shook everyone's ears buzzing.

It's a must-have program for every day.

After the welcoming procession enters the city, the steward of the Qinghe Marquis Mansion will set off two divine thunder fireworks outside the city gate, so as to ward off disasters and blessings for the bride and groom.

But at the moment when the divine thunder fireworks that were to be set off every day exploded, the old man who had just spoken screamed in fright and sat on the ground, got up and fled with a frightened and distorted face, and where he passed, not only did the onlookers smell a chatter, but also saw some traces of liquid spilling.

"Hold the grass, I'm scared to pee!"

"Hmph, this person's image is sloppy and obscene, his words are disrespectful to Qinghe Hou, and he has a bad heart, Qinghe Hou must use magic to shock his mind and break his liver and soul......"

"It's extreme, it's extreme, how can Qinghe Marquis slander it, this person deserves it!"

"The next time I see it, I'll beat him!"

The onlookers all covered their mouths and noses and looked at the old man who had gone away, and after pointing and reprimanding him, he turned his head and continued to watch the endless stream of greeting relatives passing by.
