Looking at my strange red face in front of the bronze mirror, I almost wanted to hit the wall and die.

Such a grotesque custom, but the wealthy families of the Southern Dynasty can rush to it.

For a long time, the world was feminine and feminine, how could it resist the tiger and wolf division of the Qiangqi Hu tribe in the north!

Chang'an and Wuwei are thin, their faces are as white as jade, and they have a bewitching and innocent beauty after a little powder.

And people like me and Qin Chong, Liu Zhen'er, and Sha Mihan have already sunburned their skin to wheat, and those with strong bodies have become devils after applying fat powder!

"Festive! Color! Big Draw! Ha ha! ”

After playing tricks on myself in front of the bronze mirror, I finally couldn't help but not wash the makeup off my face.

"Big brother! Hurry up! Hello! At this time, Brother Chang shouted happily to me not far away.

I am happy for the second brother's new marriage, but I think that the reason why the third brother of Chang'an is now more anxious than the groom's official Wuwei is mainly because among the female relatives sent by Liufu, he can see his favorite ninth sister Cai'er and tenth sister Lian'er again.

Chang'an, Qin Chong and others, as the man's concubines, led by the old Uncle Che, surrounded behind Wuwei's horse, burned incense and wine on the long pavilion on the side of the official road under Zhongshan Mountain, and greeted the team of Liu's family to send off relatives.

The Liu Mansion family carrying the dowry was on the official road for more than half a mile, and the people who stood on the side of the road to watch the lively township party all praised the generosity and wealth outside the courtyard of the Liu Mansion.

We, the northerners from the Western Regions, were even more dumbfounded, this is marrying a girl, and it is clear that the merchant is moving!

Gongs and drums are noisy, colorful flags are displayed, and the eight-person sedan chair in which the bride is riding slowly passes by us.

With the help of the matchmaker's maid, a piece of red silk was pulled out of the sedan chair and handed over to the groom's official Wuwei, which meant tying the knot.

Wu Wei rode a red and green Dawan Wuqing, and walked with a radiant escort and a sedan chair.

I suddenly had a feeling of wanting to cry, the purple-clothed child in Qingfengze's home has grown up, how happy my mother would be if she could see her beloved son's wedding here!

It's a pity that the end of the world is far apart, and even the news of Wu Weidi's marriage is still unknown to his mother.

And the infatuated cousin Langol, who is really providential!

Behind the sedan chair is the carriage of the Liu Mansion for the wedding, and the six married sisters and the two youngest sisters of the Liu family are all accompanied.

All of them are really the assets of the national color and natural fragrance, the appearance of the shy flowers in the closed moon, and the reputation of the ten thousand golden beauties of Jiangbei Liufu is really worthy of its reputation!

The ninth sister and the tenth sister laughed when they saw the elder brother Chang'an in the welcoming team.

And I am eagerly looking for the figure of the seventh sister Liu Nan'er, but unfortunately I am not among them.

The widowed sister didn't come with her for fear of bringing bad luck to her newlywed sister? Or she has persuaded Mrs. Liu that she is now on her way north to Hexi.

On the third day after Wuwei's wedding, we packed up, put on the reins of the saddle, and embarked on the way home.

Wuwei Taixue has been completed, and he has also said hello to the head of the household department and returned to his hometown, and he will go to Xiapi to take up his post half a year later.

The Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Southern Dynasties are still continuing the tradition of the Han and Jin dynasties in the former Han and Jin dynasties, and the news that Cheng Yi Wuwei of Xiapi County went thousands of miles to the Western Regions to serve his mother in Khotan Province has also become a beautiful conversation between the government and the opposition for a while.

And the saddest thing must be my brother-in-law Liu Keer, who has just been married to Yan'er, and her husband will not be able to return until she has been away for half a year.

When Wu Wei told her about this decision, the newcomer hugged her husband and broke down and cried, and decided to go west with us.

But Liu Keer is also a reasonable woman, and her husband Jun Wuwei has not returned home for seven years since he left Khotan at the age of ten to study in Middle-earth.

If you don't go back to do your filial piety for a few days by the side of your mother, who thinks about it day and night, you may not have the opportunity to return home after becoming an official in the future.

And she didn't know that her mother asked Wuwei to return to her hometown this time for the marriage of him and Lancer's cousin.

Only Brother Wu Wei settled this matter by himself, and no one could help him.

Grandpa assured Liu Ke'er that he would send someone to send Wu Weidi back to the Western Regions eight hundred miles quickly, and his husband would be able to return safely within three months.

During this time, Liu Ke's younger brother and daughter-in-law could cross the river with the caravan and go back to her mother's house in Jiangbei to live for a while.

Grandpa's words are true, and there is no possibility of change. Even though Liu Keer was reluctant, she could only accept this decision.

In fact, if the road is close, the new daughter-in-law who has just passed the door returns to her hometown to meet her in-laws, which is the old rule of our Han family throughout the ages.

How can the township pass be too far away, in order to meet the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, let a weak woman cross the devil-ravaged Huanglong Sand Sea and the Gobi twice within half a year, and the risks are needless to say.

It can be seen that Mrs. Liu did not tell Liu Ke'er the news that the seventh sister Liu Nan'er went north.

Otherwise, it would not be a good thing for the two sisters to go to the Western Regions together.

Under the care of Mrs. Liu's clan, the third brother Chang'an replaced the vacancy left by Wu Wei in Tai Academy, and since then he has become the only Tai student among the scholars of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

I don't know if three years later, this little baby will still be able to stick to his heart of returning to his hometown after completing his studies today and opening a museum to teach.

Maybe by then, the grass grows and the warbler flies in the soft Jiangnan, as well as the beautiful and lovely Cai and Lian daughters of Liu Fu, have already messed up his original mind.

In this way, the Western Regions are in the homeland of Khotan, and only my eldest son is holding on, how lonely it is!

On the same day, the caravan crossed the mighty river and came to the inn where we were stocked in Xiapi County.

The sheepskin bags that can shelter from the sun and water are full of ten carriages, and the men who stayed behind have been eating and sleeping in the carriages for the past few days, waiting carefully, not daring to slack off for a moment.

All the money for the whole team to support their families in the next two years is on these cloths.

In the past year, I have a very good understanding of the style of this caravan led by my grandfather and grandfather.

Grandpa never treated any fellow unkindly, and when there was no goods with him on the way, the whole caravan was like a foreign mission from the Western Regions to the East.

All the way to the mountains and rivers, eat, drink and have fun, excellent travel.

But now the silk goods have been loaded, the wheels have been put on horseback, and all the men are like sharp blades unsheathed, solemn and methodical.

Quiet as a virgin, moving like a rabbit, there are a lot of swordsmen in the goods.

Such a relaxed management, in addition to the combination of grace and power, according to Uncle Su, is to lure it to profit.

On this return, the grandfather allowed each of the men to carry ten horses of silk cloth with the annual salary as the principal.

And once these ten silk horses are safely transported to the Western Regions, whether they are in Loulan or Qiuci or the cloth market of the rest country, they can be exchanged for thirty thousand catties of dairy cows, which is equivalent to their income for several years.

Therefore, the business of this caravan is not only the business of our Qingfeng Ze Yi clan, but also the business of each fellow's own family.

With such a bundle of interests, there is no need for any assignment during the whole journey home, and every guy will do his best to protect every bag on the carriage.

The way of doing business is ever-changing, and it seems to be under Uncle Su's control, no wonder grandpa values him so much.

After spending the night at the Xiapi Inn, the caravan hurried on its way.

Mrs. Liu, the in-law of Jiangbei Liu's house, has already received the news from Wuwei's daughter-in-law who returned home first that my family's caravan has returned to Jiangxi.

I led more than a dozen family members early to prepare fat sheep sake for my family's caravan to practice on the edge of the official road pavilion where Xiapi and Dunqiu intersect.

Looking at Brother Wu Wei and his new wife Liu Keer's sour appearance, I hate to pull down the rainbow in the sky.

Let the moat become a thoroughfare, let the road from Jiangnan to the Western Regions start and fall, and the world will not have to bear the pain of such a parting.

"Brother Linfeng! I didn't expect you and I to be in-laws in this life! Ha ha! , you are still a generation older than me! ”

Mrs. Liu didn't use fat powder today, although her hair was white, she finally showed a face full of vicissitudes and open-mindedness, which was not as absurd as when she first saw it.

"Huh! Who's to say it's not! Creation makes people too! ”

Grandpa picked up the wine bowl and drank it with a lot of emotion with his old man in Longxi.

"Grandpa, Wuwei has relied on your care along the way! Hard work! Mrs. Liu also respects her justice.

"Haha! Liu Yuanwai is polite! Wu Wei, my own nephew, will take care of me on the way! ”

Grandpa smiled heroically, thinking that one bowl of sake was too little, he picked up the wine jar and poured two bowls of Gu Dong Gu Dong to eat it.

The carriage of the caravan was too slow, and after discussing with Grandpa, Grandpa, Uncle Su and others, it was decided that Grandpa and a senior brother would accompany Wuwei to ride a fast horse north.

In this way, without any fetters, the fast horse can reach Khotan in the Western Regions in a month.

"Oops! If you are a few years younger, the old man really wants to let go of everything in front of him and dominate the world with you, and live a happy life! It's a pity that it's old, haha! ”

Old lady Liu laughed heartily again, then put down the wine bowl, and seemed to ask casually: "Jincheng baby!" How young is this year? ”

"Qiyu Taigong, eighteen years old!" I bowed a little weakly.

"Oh! My little girl Nan'er is also eighteen years old, and you two are the same year! This girl, hey! Jincheng baby, treat her well! ”

The old lady first said the sound of thunder, but the last two sentences were in my ear.

I instantly understood what Mrs. Liu meant, he was "asking me to be alone"!
