Foot to the red lotus, red clothes and hands, the fiery red golden phoenix wedding dress mopping the ground, the lotus under the feet step by step, the waist and limbs between walking, today's big fish looks particularly graceful.

Under the brocade cover, there were ripples and tears, mixed with fat powder and falling into the bowl. The old loach had hazy teary eyes, holding a bowl in one hand and a spoon in the other, tremblingly sent it to the brocade cover, and the women of the family were also wiping their tears on the side.

Chang Mao stood next to the sedan chair with a smug smile on his face, and the fox friends around him made fun of him. As for Ma Du, he stood under the porch with a blank face, in fact, he wanted to laugh, but the family was crying, so he had to put on this expression.

A married daughter is like water spilled out, and he understands the truth but it is difficult to understand. Even when he was not married, the time that Da Yuer lived in Chang's house added up to two months a year, and it was three days to play with Meirong, which was really so difficult to give up?

Ma Du touched his conscience, could it be that I don't love the big fish enough? Look at the babbling little Dongmei in Xu Xiaopei's arms, if she gets married one day, will she cry like her second grandfather?

Song Shuang poked Ma Du, who looked wooden with red eyes, and said to everyone: "Seeing that he is sad in his heart, he is almost stupid, the hour is not early, and he should not hurry up and carry the big fish on his back to the sedan chair." ”

Ma Du came back to his senses and said to Da Yu'er: "If you have time, you will often go home to see, if anyone dares to bully you in your mother-in-law's house, just go home and say that your brother will stand out for you......"

He was only halfway through his words, but was rudely interrupted by the old loach, "Don't listen to your brother, when you go to your in-law's house, you must be diligent with your hands and feet, serve your husband well and be filial to your in-laws, if you have grievances, remember to be patient......"

This is the difference between ancient and modern, Ma Du can understand the second grandfather's mood a little, he carried the big fish on his back and sent her straight into the sedan chair, and was about to withdraw the big fish but grabbed his hand, "Brother, don't worry, the sister will be fine!" ”

Ma Du patted her little hand, put down the sedan curtain, turned to Chang Mao beside her, and said, "Treat my sister well." ”

Chang Mao patted his chest and was rare and serious, "Big brother, don't worry, how can my own mother-in-law not feel distressed." ”

"Get up!" I don't know who shouted, the firecrackers and drums sounded in unison, Chang Mao rode on the horse and walked in front proudly, and the team of greeting relatives left slowly, followed by the dowry that was lifted one by one.

Until the last dowry left the house, the old loach's sad expression dissipated, and he changed into a smiling face to greet the guests to the table. Seeing Ma Du coming over, the old loach said: "Those are your students, it's not your turn to toast them, just let me and the little turtle go." The second grandfather has more important things to hand over to you. ”

The old loach took out a stack of gift lists from his arms, "These are all gift lists handed over by the guests, hurry up to the warehouse to check today's gifts, don't be less!" ”

"Second grandfather, rest assured, the account room at home is not so bold."

The old loach whispered, "I mean to let you see if those congratulatory gifts are the same as those on the gift list." ”

Ma Du thought it was funny, "You are too worried, you are also noble, so you won't do such a shameless thing." ”

"Naturally, they don't at home, but you haven't counted these students in your heart? If the things are in their hands again, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not be short of catties or two. While they are still eating the banquet, if there is a shortage, let them make up for it, and after today, our family will have to suffer a loss. ”

The old loach is not called for nothing, it is smooth enough, and I have to say that his concerns are very reasonable. If it's really less, Madu doesn't care, but he can take the opportunity to clean them up. Especially if Zhou Ji hadn't known everything about the Spring Palace, he wouldn't have been besieged by Zhu Sheng and others.

There are people who give gold and silver, and there are people who give gifts, and among the beautiful brocade boxes, the crude wooden box looks so eye-catching, is there really someone who fills the number with tattered and indiscriminate pieces?

He frowned and slowly opened it, but he almost didn't throw it out with a scream, and only when he saw it carefully did he let out a long breath.

A grenade, a large grenade, but it is carved out of wood, the technique is extremely clumsy, the carving is crooked, not to mention, even the most basic polishing and polishing has not been done, if it is not for the silver paint on the upper part and the black paint on the lower part, it is really difficult to recognize.

For a while, all kinds of distracting thoughts surged in my heart, whose intimidation did this come from, Yang Xian's old party department? Zhu Liangzu's revenge? Even the White Lotus Sect!

He really thought too much, and now the culprit took advantage of the opportunity to hold a banquet to eat Haisai, Zhang Wuliu squatted at the kitchen door holding a big bowl, swallowed a piece of pork into his stomach, and muttered: "Well, there is one less thing to worry about, and my appetite is much better, and I can stand by Hou Ye's side with a clear conscience in the future." ”

As the so-called light is dark, Ma Du is destined to not find out the truth, and he has no time to investigate, and before the big fish returns to the door, he will start working for the thousands of generations of the Zhu Dynasty with an edict.

Lao Zhu promised to recruit 200,000 people at the beginning, but now that the city wall is built with concrete, there is no need for so many city bricks. Half of it was cut off with a single knife, and there were only 40,000 people who could be dispatched to Yingtian for Ma Du, saying that it was for the sake of cultivation and recuperation, which was really hypocritical.

Seeing the 40,000 people, Ma Du was immediately dumbfounded, his ragged appearance looked like a homeless person, and after thinking about it, it was impossible, the homeless people were not forced to serve.

Seeing that their complexions are not bad, most of them are quite strong, not like they are so poor that they have no clothes to wear, and when I ask, I know that they are dressed like this on purpose, because they are afraid that they will damage their clothes when they are working.

This is normal, and when you do rough work in the future life, you have to pick up shabby clothes to wear. It's just that the clothes of these people are too shabby, and it is inconvenient for them to move, let alone work.

Fortunately, Ma Du had already prepared, and had already asked Shen Wansan to buy a large number of old linen cloth and make it into labor protection supplies, and Shen Wansan also complained that it didn't cost much to buy linen, but the manual cost was a lot.

When the people arrived, the first thing was not to start working, but to solve the problem of eating, drinking, and sleeping for 40,000 people. The place where you need to spend money also follows, take food as an example, Lao Zhu only gave food, even if he didn't eat meat and vegetables, but salt always had to be eaten, according to the price of a few hundred wen a pound of salt in the early Ming Dynasty, 40,000 people eating salt could eat Ma Du bankrupt.

Fortunately, salt has been controlled by the imperial court from ancient times to the present, and Ma Du went to Zhongshu Province to find Li Shanchang, and transferred a batch of them from Zhang Shicheng's salt farm where he used to make a living to solve his urgent needs.

There are no brick houses, but adobe thatched houses can be built, and it is comfortable to spread wheat straw mats, and half a month has passed since these are done.
