Chapter 0295: Strange Woman
Eight crane-haired old mothers tugged at Kou Ji, holding something like a ring ruler, and constantly measured Kou Ji's body.
Koji is like a puppet in human form, at their mercy.
After getting the news, Liu Heng and Cao Tong, who hurried to Koufu to congratulate them, sat on the stools in the house and looked at them with a smile.
Liu Heng took the initiative to ask: "Fourth brother, if you get married in three days, how about I be your concubine?" ”
Cao Tong nodded and said, "Count me in ......"
Liu Heng pursed his lips and asked Cao Tong sideways, "The two of us are concubines, are we a little too thin?" ”
Cao Tong muttered: "In the courtyard of the two mansions, only the two of us are the prime ministers, which is indeed a bit thin...... Or, I'll go find Pan Shu, Li Weixian, and Zhao Yunchu? ”
Liu Heng commented: "Pan Shu is okay...... Li Weixian is quite alive...... Zhao Yunchu forget it, right? He was too young to be beaten. ”
Kou Ji, who had just finished measuring the size of his arm, asked with a little confusion: "Why don't you be beaten?" ”
Liu Heng smiled and did not speak.
Cao Tong explained with a smile: "Let's get married in Bianjing City, and the woman will not embarrass the groom's official, but the bridegroom will inevitably be beaten." Especially when going into the boudoir to pick up the bride, the bride's sisters and sisters-in-law will beat them with sticks. ”
After explaining, Cao Tong smiled at Liu Heng again: "Although Zhao Yunchu has not been beaten, his identity is there." With him in front to help us with, we can also be beaten less. ”
Liu Heng's eyes lit up, patted his thigh and said, "Reasonable, reasonable...... I'll send for the three of them. ”
"Wait......"
Kou Ji shook off the eight old ladies and rushed forward to stop them.
Liu Heng asked: "Fourth brother thinks there are too few people?" ”
Kou Ji said sincerely: "You two are my best brothers, and it is enough to have you two." ”
Liu Heng looked dazed.
Cao Tong laughed out loud.
Liu Heng asked suspiciously, "What are you laughing at?" ”
Cao Tong pointed at Kou Ji and laughed loudly: "He's scared." He is afraid that you will invite too many people, and when we invite him to be a concubine, he will be beaten. ”
Kou Ji returned to his original position, and let the old ladies continue to measure his body.
He stared at Cao Yan, rolled his eyes and said, "The Xiang family is a scholarly family, and most of the female dependents in the family are powerless people. You have rough skin and thick meat, and if you are beaten by them, it will hurt for two days at most.
Your martial arts court is different, there are many female women among the female dependents, and the martial arts in their hands are not lost to men.
When you get married, I will be a maid and not be beaten to death by them? ”
When Cao Tong heard this, he was a little unhappy, and he defended: "Most of the ladies of my Cao Mansion are well-read and reasonable. ”
The corners of Kou Ji's mouth twitched, and he said angrily: "Not long ago, the female hero who demolished the gate of the Cao family with his bare hands, injured thirteen old soldiers of the Cao Mansion, and clamored to go to Baozhou to find Di Qing, isn't it from your Cao Mansion?" ”
When Cao Tong heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched: "It's not that you are blamed...... The news of Di Qing's presence in Baozhou, my father and my uncle have been hiding it from several sisters in the house.
You instigated Di Qing to ask my uncle to ask for the old man in the house, and when a few sisters found out, they would go to Baozhou to find Di Qing. ”
Kou Ji held back a smile and asked, "That female hero of Cao Mansion, is it your sister?" Such a fierce heroine among women, I really want to see it. ”
Cao Tong said disdainfully: "I don't believe you don't know ......"
Without waiting for Kou Ji to speak, Liu Heng, who was also curious, shook his head and said, "We really don't know...... At that time, my fourth brother and I were busy dealing with government affairs and didn't have time to pay attention to this matter, and when you wanted to pay attention, your Cao Mansion sent someone to extinguish the rumors.
My fourth brother and I didn't deliberately pay attention to this matter anymore.
If the fourth brother hadn't mentioned it again, I would have almost forgotten that there was such a thing. ”
Cao Yan's face was dark, and after his eyes circled Kou Ji and Liu Heng, he said dejectedly: "My second sister ......"
Kou Jiwan refused the old lady's proposal to let him take a roll of bewitching red cloth as a wedding dress, and stared at Cao Tong with a surprised expression: "The second girl of the Cao family? ”
Liu Heng said with a look of astonishment: "Second girl? ”
"I've seen the second girl, how can a soft and weak young lady be so powerful?"
Kou Ji said in disbelief.
Cao Yan's face was a little ugly, he didn't want to mention the ugly things in Cao Mansion, but Kou Ji and Liu Heng both asked, so he couldn't continue to hide it.
Cao Tong said frankly: "The second sister is naturally stronger than others, and she is a tyrant in Bianjing City. How many princes and grandsons were beaten by her and looked for teeth all over the ground. also mixed the nickname of the rouge overlord in Bianjing City.
In the end, no one in Bianjing City dared to marry her.
When she was eighteen years old, no one dared to go to Caofu to propose marriage.
My eldest uncle did not hesitate to lower his family, took advantage of the family's wealth, and finally found a person who was willing to marry her.
But she rushed to someone's house, stunned to pull someone to learn martial arts, and almost didn't kill anyone.
Do people dare to marry her?
My eldest uncle was depressed by her anger.
After my eldest uncle died, my father and several of my uncles were ruthless and locked her in the house.
That's eight years.
She hasn't been wandering around Bianjing City for eight years, and of course you don't know her reputation.
She looks soft and weak now, and that's because she has been locked up for eight years, which has smoothed out her temperament. ”
After a pause, Cao Tong stared at Kou Ji and complained, "But since you sent Di Qing to the mansion, she has sprouted in a solid state again. The reason why my uncle let Di Qing study with him for half a year and threw Di Qing out to experience was not to let Di Qing hide from the other sisters in the house, but to let Di Qing avoid my second sister. ”
Kou Jiba clicked his mouth, muttered for a long time, and sighed: "What a strange woman." ”
Liu Heng nodded violently on the side.
Liu Heng said: "If it weren't for the fact that your Cao Mansion didn't look down on my Liu family, it would be just right to marry your second sister to my brother." With her in charge of my brother, my brother will not dare to mess around outside. ”
Cao Tong snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "Even if my second sister dares to marry, does your brother dare to marry?" Your brother Liu Congmei was in trouble in Bianjing City, and was bumped into by my second sister, and he hit three times a day, and Liu Congde, who was fighting behind your brother Liu Congmei, was scared and peed his pants. ”
Liu Heng was stunned.
He didn't expect that his two brothers would have such an unbearable past.
Kou Ji groaned: "Such a strange woman, she is a perfect match for Di Qing. ”
Kou Ji stared at Cao Tong and asked, "Since your second sister has taken a fancy to Di Qing, why doesn't your uncle make the decision to marry your second sister to Di Qing?" Could it be that your Cao Mansion dislikes Di Qing's origin? ”
Cao Tong nodded.
After thinking about it, he shook his head again.
"My father and several other uncles think that Di Qing is not from a good background and is not worthy of my second sister. My uncle didn't think so, but he felt that Di Qing's future was limitless, and my second sister was not worthy of Di Qing. ”
Kou Ji looked suspicious, "Di Qing doesn't like your second sister?" ”
Cao Tong smiled bitterly: "My second sister is twenty-six years old this year......
Kou Ji was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized.
The age gap between the second girl of the Cao family and Di Qing is too great.
It's eleven years old.
Naturally inappropriate.
Kou Ji sighed with emotion: "If Di Qing is older, it will be a strange fate. ”
The second girl of the Cao family, Kou Ji has also seen it.
With Di Qing, that's more than enough.
Although Di Qing is handsome, he has no strengths other than being handsome.
The second girl of the Cao family, whether it is her family background or her knowledge, can throw Di Qing off several streets.
The second girl of the Cao family is also beautiful.
Although she is not a stunning beauty, she is also a beauty.
According to the combat effectiveness shown by the second girl of the Cao family before, the martial arts of the people are still higher than Di Qing.
Cao Tong stopped at Kou Ji's words and said with a wry smile: "Whether it's a strange fate, I don't know." But I know it must be a bad fate. ”
Kou Ji and Liu Heng both looked at Cao Tong with puzzled expressions.
Under the gaze of the two of them, Cao Tong said helplessly: "My second sister has not stopped since she knew that Di Qing was in Baozhou. She demolished the gate of the house that day, was captured by my uncle, and locked up in the firewood room.
He was locked up in the firewood room for a few days, and when he came out, he stopped for a few days.
The people in the house thought she wouldn't make any more trouble.
Who knew that she secretly knocked out the door and escaped from the house a month ago. ”
After a pause, Cao Tong sighed and said, "It is estimated that I have arrived in Baozhou now......
Kou Ji and Liu Heng stared at each other in astonishment.
Kou Ji didn't say a word, shook off the old lady who was measuring him, and rushed out of the room.
I ran all the way to the study.
Kou Ji quickly studied the ink, and when the ink ingot had just melted, he couldn't wait to pick up the pen, quickly waved, and wrote down two big words.
Then he put it in an envelope, sealed it with fire paint, rushed out of the courtyard gate, found Kou Zhong, and ordered: "Hurry up and send this letter to Di Qing in Baozhou." ”
Seeing that Kou Ji looked so anxious, Kou Zhong didn't ask too much, took the letter and went to the post station, mobilizing eight hundred miles to expedite.
After Kou Ji delivered the letter, he let out a long breath and grinned brightly.
Cao Tong and Liu Heng just chased after him at this time, and saw Kou Ji with a smile on his face.
Liu Heng asked suspiciously, "Fourth brother, what did you do when you ran out of the room in a hurry just now?" ”
Kou Ji smiled indifferently and said, "It's nothing ......."
didn't wait for Cao Tong and Liu Heng to continue to ask.
Kou Ji continued: "Haven't you two gone back to the house to prepare, and go back with me to pick up your relatives?" ”
Cao Tong and Liu Heng were stunned for a moment, and then nodded violently.
……
Three days later.
In the sound of cheerful firecrackers, Kou Ji stepped on a docile high-headed horse, and walked out of Kou's mansion with a hard body.
He was dressed in a bright red wedding dress, wearing a gauze hat with a big red flower tied to the gauze hat, and he looked very festive.
Liu Heng and Cao Tong were also dressed in bright red clothes, straddled horses, and stood on both sides not far in front of Kou Ji.
On each of their horses hung a red pocket full of copper coins.
Behind the three of them, eighty-eight servants of the Kou Mansion staggered after carrying boxes of various colors sealed with red paper.
Amid the singing of the officials sent by the Ministry of Rites, Kou Ji straddled his horse and slowly rushed to Xiangfu with a team to welcome his relatives.
The procession did not follow the nearest road to Xiangfu.
Instead, he made a big circle in Bianjing City.
Along the way, whenever they met someone who came forward to congratulate or ask for a reward, Liu Heng and Cao Tong would grab a handful of copper coins from the pocket on the horse's neck and spill it.
When they arrived at the lively place, Liu Heng and Cao Tong even carried red pockets and poured copper coins out.
The copper coins tumbled to the ground.
caused the people to loot.
After the people finished robbing, Liu Heng shouted and asked them, "Don't you say two auspicious words?" ”
When the people took the money, their mouths naturally became sweeter, and all kinds of auspicious words were shouted.
Kou Ji on horseback even heard something like 'blessing is like the East China Sea, Shoubi Nanshan'.
I don't know if this guy is uneducated, or if it's deliberate.
Kou Ji felt that Liu Heng and Cao Tong's practice of throwing money was a bit extravagant.
wanted to talk to Liu Heng, but was blocked by Liu Heng's words.
"Everyone else does this when they get married, if you don't do it, the people will poke you in the back and scold you for being stingy......"
The greeting procession arrived at the state bridge.
Zhang Cheng led the Vientiane pawnshop, the shopkeeper, the steward, and the man of the Vientiane Building, and lined up in two long rows.
Behind them were two rows of grain wagons, as well as several carts of copper coins.
They bowed in unison and congratulated the queen of Kouji.
began to throw money and decimeters to the people near the state bridge.
Anyone who can climb to the front of the greeting team and say an auspicious word can get ten big money and three catties of rice.
The people went crazy in an instant.
forcibly blocked Kou Ji's welcoming team in front of the state bridge for two hours.
Kou Ji asked Liu Heng with a smile and a smile, "You arranged it?" ”
Liu Heng grinned and said, "I arranged it with Zhang Cheng." He pays for the food, and I pay for it. Fourth brother, you get married, and in general, the people in Bianjing City are happy. ”
After saying this, Liu Heng came to Kou Ji again and whispered: "This is during the great funeral of the first emperor, and it is not allowed to do a big job." Otherwise, I will also learn from that Shi Chong, and let people use silk cloth to surround Bianjing City and celebrate you. ”
"You, you......"
Kou Ji pointed at Liu Heng and said, "You have to understand the truth that wealth is not exposed...... Although we have made some money, we should not be so high-profile and easy to be remembered. ”
Liu Heng said nonchalantly: "What is this?" When the Shi family married a daughter before, they asked the people in the house to take the money and grain to distribute money and rice to the people in Bianjing City, and go door to door, both young and old.
Even the beggars outside the city gave thirty dollars and a pound of wine and meat. ”
Kou Ji shook his head and didn't say much.
The welcoming team went around in Bianjing City and finally arrived at the gate of Xiangfu.
Xiang Fu is also very proud.
Very hoof.
From the entrance of Xiang's mansion to the mouth of the alley, it was full of Xiang Yan's dowry.
There are many valuable things among them.
How long is the alley at the entrance of Xiangfu?
Three hundred zhang!
Three hundred feet!
When Liu Heng sent someone to scatter money in Zhouqiao, he was still a little proud, but after seeing Xiang Fu's handwriting, his jaw didn't drop in shock.
"Can't you tell the old man? I've seen a lot of imperial stuff in it, and that's amazing! ”
