Chapter 277: Talking about the medium
Yang Huairen finished worshipping his father in this era, changed out of coarse linen clothes, changed into a brocade arrow-neck shirt prepared for him by his mother, put on a fur coat, straddled a jujube red horse, and entered the village majestically. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
He is of medium stature, and he is not very tall and mighty, but he relies on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, and he changes this outfit, showing the noble and domineering temperament of the whole person.
In the eyes of the villagers, these are a burst of fanciful praise, and the aunts and aunts in the village have moved their minds again, their own in-laws or mother-in-laws, there are always some nieces and nieces who are in the prime of life, if they can climb up to Yang Huairen's family, they will be looked down upon in the eyes of the patriarch in the future.
Someone kept approaching Yang's mother's carriage and passed the news to the inside loudly through the carriage, which roughly meant to ask Yang Huairen, the marquis, if he had any plans to take a concubine.
The first time Yang's mother was so sought after, she was naturally overjoyed, but she was quite open-minded about whether her son would take a concubine or not, and only said that as long as her son and the bride He Zhiyun agreed, there would be no problem.
So these aunts and aunts ran around He Zhiyun's carriage again, and recommended their relatives in various fancy ways, and said that those girls were in heaven and on earth, and even a big beauty like He Zhiyun was ashamed to hear it.
But after all, she is a daughter-in-law, no matter how angry she is, she can't show these elders a look, so she has to throw this hot yam to Yang Huairen with a smiling face.
Yang Huairen was walking happily in front of the high-headed horse, and suddenly heard a group of middle-aged women rushing over behind him, and when he turned his head to look, He Zhiyun's car curtain was also opened, and two sharp eyes shot on his back, as if a line of big characters was engraved on his back: Do you take one and let me see?
Yang Huairen had to deal with those matchmakers with a bitter face, and he was also very distressed that he was handsome and rich, and he should have been happy if people wanted to be a concubine for you, but his brother was so innocent and single-minded, how could he take a concubine casually?
It was the patriarch's cousin who relieved him of the siege and drove away the women who were beaten like chickens.
Yang Huairen was just about to say thank you, his mouth opened halfway, but he heard the patriarch and the elder say: "Alas, these female dependents in the family are becoming more and more disagreeable, and Huairen's grandson is returning to his hometown today, and it is the right thing to go to the ancestral hall to worship his ancestors."
Besides, the little ladies they said are too exaggerated, and when they finish worshipping the ancestral spiritual position, the cousin will tell you a good one, that is the old granddaughter, that is the real lady......"
I'll go, you're really my grandfather, they're not reliable, and you're not singing at all, your granddaughter, isn't that my cousin, do you understand that close relatives are not allowed to marry?
Later, I pondered that this was an ancient rule, only the immediate family did not intermarry, but there was no rule that collateral relatives did not intermarry, and even the old people, especially the old stubborns with a strong sense of family, in order to maintain the purity of the family bloodline, were more willing to match young men and women in this kind of cousin relationship.
The ball was kicked to He Zhiyun by his mother, and He Zhiyun passed it to him, but when it comes to him, who is he going to pass it to? Looking at Tianba's younger brother and Xiao Qi, who had been following him on the side, Yang Huairen asked, "Which of you wants to marry a daughter-in-law?" ”
Tianba's younger brother can be said to be proud of the crowd in stature, but he is actually only fifteen years old in age, and he is also in love for the first time, but this kid is only thinking about eating now, and he doesn't pay much attention to the affairs of men and women.
Hearing that Yang Huairen was going to introduce his daughter-in-law to him, Tianba's younger brother said stupidly: "Hehe, thank you brother for your kindness, the younger brother is still young, it is better to talk about it when the younger brother is sixteen years old during the New Year." ”
Damn, Yang Huairen glared at him, and thought in his heart how tall your kid is, looking like an honest child, he had a plan in his heart, he even thought about when to find a partner, he is really not good-looking, and the amount of food cannot be used in a pot.
Yang Huairen turned his head to look at Xiao Qi again, Xiao Qi, who likes to sleep on the beam in the middle of the night, was frightened by this gaze, and hurriedly excused himself: "I'm still a ......."
Yang Huairen was angry, grabbed the words and scolded: "You little fart, you are older than me, it's time to find a daughter-in-law, what are you doing in the bedroom, you are not a mouse." ”
Without waiting for Xiao Qi to answer, the patriarch and the old man were already scared away, and muttered: "My granddaughter doesn't want to be a child daughter-in-law......
Xiao Qi had a black line, but Yang Huairen and Tianba's younger brother were laughing back and forth. Xuanshen didn't know when he dared to come to the front from the back of the line, and asked with a smile, "What were you talking about just now?" It sounds like the Hou Ye is going to introduce his daughter-in-law to whom? ”
"Damn, you old pervert, you were still eight feet away just now, you haven't heard anything else we say, when it comes to introducing your daughter-in-law, you're going to be happy, aren't you?"
"Where, where," Xuan Shen retorted: "Actually, I came here with good intentions, Master Hou just removed the splint, and I came over to see if you have any discomfort." ”
"Why did you find this reason, when were you so flamboyant?"
Yang Huairen finished joking, and looked at Xuan Shen again, "But then again, except for a few internal guards in our Jin Ju Hall, except for a few who came out of the palace, the others are all normal men, everyone is in their twenties, why haven't they married?" ”
Under the question, Xiao Qi and Xuan Shen's faces were gloomy together. Xiao Qi explained: "Don't dare to deceive Lord Hou, those who were eunuchs in the early years were ridiculed as 'rootless people', in fact, we people, although we are men, are also rootless people." ”
Xuan Shen continued: "Yes, we were all lowly slaves who were sold as cattle by other traffickers without father and mother, and we were bought home by Gonggong Ye when we were very young, and then trained as internal guards.
When I was a child, I was trying my best to cater to Father-in-law Ye, and later became an internal guard, doing some secret things, in order not to leak the news and not expose my identity, I can't get married.
Because of this, we, like those eunuchs, cannot get married, so we cannot have a home, and if we have no home, we will have no offspring, what is the difference between us and those who have no roots? ”
After saying these heartfelt words, the two of them invariably lowered their heads and mourned silently for their tragic fate.
However, this reminds Yang Huairen that others live for their own different purposes, and these internal guards, the purpose of their lives is simply to live.
The power of one person is too small, the organization of the internal guard is huge, and the power is huge, even if these rules are inhumane, but not a single person can resist.
If he can build a family for these internal guards and let them feel the affection and warmth of the world, will he be able to make these internal guards become real people?
