Today is the day when Wu Zhi and Hu Sanniang set off, but they didn't go to Hujiazhuang, but Qingzhou!

It is not a detour to go to Qingzhou first and then to Hujiazhuang, Wu Zhi and Hu Sanniang have already discussed, and they will go back to Hujiazhuang together to propose their relatives after they have finished their work.

This is the first time Hu Sanniang has gone out with Wu Zhi alone, and it is also Wu Zhi's first time going out in the Song Dynasty, and both of them are very excited!

With Wu Songyun's brother Jiang Jing and other trusted henchmen in Yanggu County, Wu Zhi was also very relieved about the safety of Xue'er and Jin Lian's safety and the business of the proud building, and repeatedly told Wu Song to take care of the two sisters-in-law, before dawn, Wu Zhi and Hu Sanniang took Xiao Rang and other entourage guards and some heavy belongings out of Yanggu County.

For Wu Song, Wu Zhi just told him to help him find a military position, and did not elaborate on the doorway, Wu Zhi hoped that Wu Song would just be frank and be himself, and in the future, those dark, shady, and even bloody things would be handed over to Wu Zhi!

There are two carriages in Wu Zhi's team, and Hu Sanniang and Wu Zhi are sitting in one soft collapse, this time Wu Zhi went to Qingzhou with three thousand taels of silver, which is not a small amount, of course, he and Hu Sanniang have to take care of it every inch.

The carriage behind was loaded with golden wine and good soybean oil, and Wu Zhi also considered it, in case the Qingzhou prefect was a mediocre, but he liked a high official, then Wu Zhi would only send gold wine and soybean oil and not silver, if not, then give it all to him!

The most taboo thing about gift-giving is dragging mud and water, reluctant to let the child catch the wolf, compared to Wu Song's future, these things are nothing.

Xiao Rang and the guards rode six horses in the carriage or so, the Song Dynasty horses were very scarce and precious, if someone rode a horse on the street, it would be the same as the effect of driving a luxury sports car on the street in later generations, at this time Wu Zhi's six horses and two carriages of the battle was also extremely luxurious.

Xiao Rang and others went to Qingzhou to prepare for the opening of the Proud Building, and the recent expansion of the Proud Building has been rapid, and Brother Yun himself is too busy, so Xiao Rang also temporarily joined the operation department...... A few days ago, Wu Zhi sent someone to Qingzhou to prepare a restaurant and oil mill, and when Wu Zhi went, it was just in time for the opening of Qingzhou Proud Building, and Wu Zhi also took advantage of this reason to ask for a meeting with the prefect.

With the reputation and reputation of Deyilou in Shandong today, it is much easier for Wu Zhi to meet the prefect.

……

Out of Yanggu County, Wu Zhi and the others walked straight east along the official road, and when the sun rose and dawned, they were already far away from Yanggu County for more than ten miles.

Since the first emperor of China overhauled the Chi Road, from the Qin Dynasty to the down, every dynasty has attached great importance to the construction of official roads. The wealthy Song Dynasty naturally did not let the previous dynasty focus on beauty, and the Song Dynasty began to invest in the construction of official roads regardless of the cost since the beginning of the country...... After more than 100 years of construction, the east, west, north and south of the empire have built well-drained and well-leveled official roads that are not afraid of accumulation, connecting the counties vertically and horizontally.

According to the regulations of the Great Song Dynasty, the roadside must be willow sandwich road, pine and cypress, in the north to shelter the wind and sand, in the south is to fix the roadbed, every five miles beside the road, set up a stone tablet of 'scale', engraved on the traffic regulations such as 'cheap to avoid expensive, less to avoid long, light to avoid heavy, to avoid coming', and there is a number in the eye-catching place.

Look at the number to know how far you have gone, and you can see it at a glance.

In addition, at the state and county borders, there are 'boundary dirt' that clearly indicate where you are located, where you are in the state and county, and where you are in the east, west, north and south, and even ask for directions.

And every twenty miles of the official road must be placed in a horse shop, there is a horse pavilion: every sixty miles, there must be a post station, there are official camps, there are also citizens to buy down to operate, all provide a full set of food and accommodation. Scholars often live in post stations, stay in the evening, be safe and worry-free, and can be described as considerate and thoughtful.

It is said that the people of the Song Dynasty liked to travel, and with such good transportation conditions, as long as the family has money, who doesn't want to go out for a walk?

It's just that you can't go to the poor mountains and rivers that are too remote when you travel, otherwise you will encounter the black shop of the dominatrix Sun Erniang, and I am afraid that it will inevitably become a human meat bun......

The sky outside the carriage was already bright, and Wu Zhi naturally couldn't help but lift the window to enjoy the scenery outside, this is the scenery of the Northern Song Dynasty!

The hustle and bustle of the county town where the carriages and horses have long been far away, at this time are driving on the official road in the countryside, it is winter, the large fields on both sides of the official road are endless wheat, and the tender green wheat seedlings are still covered with large areas of unmelted ice and snow, the ice and snow are shining in the sun, the gusts of wind are skipping, and the wheat seedlings are also rolling green waves.

The green and white colors contrast with each other, the breath of ice and snow mixed with the fragrance of wheat seedlings and soil is blowing towards Wu Zhi, taking a deep breath, it suddenly makes people feel like an empowering, and the whole body is transparent; Take another sip and it will immediately refresh and refresh!

Now Wu Zhi finally understands why some people in later generations sell air as a commodity, if it is really this kind of air full of "natural aura", it is worth buying and smelling it, but I am afraid that future generations will never find such air again.

Hu Sanniang sat quietly in the carriage, the scenery outside the window was nothing special for her, an "aborigine", Wu Zhi stretched out his head like a child, and Hu Sanniang looked at Wu Zhi intently like a little girl.

The more she looked at Wu Zhi, the harder her heart beats, and the harder her heart beats, the more happy she is!

Because what Hu Sanniang thought was that she was about to officially marry the man in front of her!

The scenery outside the window is rustic, walking ten miles is snow and wheat fields, walking twenty miles is still the same, occasionally there will be a small village, three or two leisurely and laughing peasant children. What makes Wu Zhi's eyes shine is that every time he passes through a village, he will always see patches of grain fields that can no longer be seen in the countryside in later generations.

The grain field is the place where the farmers harvest the crops and use them to thresh the grass, and after the farmers separate the seeds and straw of the cereals, wheat and other crops in the grain field, they will pile the straw into a stack of straw piles of different shapes, some are square and some are round, some are pointed and some are cornices.

These piles of straw stand like miniature palaces on the grain fields of various villages, looking very pleasing to the eye, even if Wu Zhi does not have many artistic cells, he can't help but admire these interesting and ingenious straw piles.

But no matter how good the scenery is, you will get tired of seeing too much, in addition to the fact that the carriage where Wu Zhi is sitting is a hardwood wheel, even if the official road is smooth, it is also bumpy Wu Zhi is very uncomfortable, after putting down the window, after seeing Hu Sanniang looking at himself with a stupid face, Wu Zhi smiled evilly and approached Hu Sanniang, and then lay down on Hu Sanniang's slender and elastic thighs, Wu Zhi planned to rest for a while.

"Hehe, Sanniang, I'll squint for a while, don't you move!"

Hu Sanniang was shocked by Wu Zhi's actions, Wu Zhi pillowed on her thighs like this, Hu Sanniang only felt that her legs were extremely numb, but she couldn't move, fortunately, Wu Zhi really squinted her eyes after speaking, Hu Sanniang had to grit her teeth and insist, but the more she gritted her teeth and insisted, the more intense the itching and numbness came from her thighs......

By the time Wu Zhi opened his eyes, he already felt much better, this kind of carriage with hardwood wheels was really extremely bumpy, and the slightest unevenness or small pebbles would shake.

However, Wu Zhi was not awakened by the carriage, he was awakened by Hu Sanniang's trembling thighs from time to time...... After getting up, Wu Zhi looked at Hu Sanniang, who was bowing his head beside him, who seemed to have just experienced a fierce battle, and was taking a deep breath, "The inside of the carriage is sealed very well, it's not cold at all, why is Sanniang shivering......"

"Sanniang, what's wrong with you?"

After listening to Wu Zhi's question, Hu Sanniang took another deep breath, and then raised her head, and said with some embarrassment on her blushing face: "No... It's nothing... A cold wind blew in just now......"

"Oh, come on, wrap your cloak tightly." The carriage was a little dim, and Wu Zhi didn't think about it, he thoughtfully straightened out the cloak on Hu Sanniang's body, and naturally hugged Hu Sanniang in his arms.

With their current relationship, it's normal to hug and hug like this.

"Sanniang, you said that when you get to Hujiazhuang, I will go to propose marriage empty-handed, will your father agree?" Wu Zhi asked Hu Sanniang in his arms.

Hu Sanniang already knew that Wu Zhi went to Qingzhou this time mainly to help Wu Song, and the silver and wine on these two carriages were not the dowry prepared by Wu Zhi.

"What?" After listening to Wu Zhi's words, Hu Sanniang couldn't help but reach out and twist it on Wu Zhi's stomach, and said with some resentment: "It turns out that you really don't plan to prepare a dowry!" ”

"Ouch!"

Wu Hu Sanniang twisted it and felt painful, and then he stroked Hu Sanniang's back and said leisurely: "After I go to Qingzhou to finish the dots, even if there is any silver left, it is too little, rather than taking that little bit of silver to make your family say that I am stingy, it is better to simply go empty-handed!" Hey! ”

In fact, Wu Zhi is just teasing Hu Sanniang, the Song people have the most important number of gifts, and ordinary women have to be married with three ceremonies and six appointments, not to mention Bai Fumei at the goddess level like Hu Sanniang?

So Wu Zhi is ready for a big gift that no one will refuse!

Hu Sanniang knew that Wu Zhi would bring so many belongings when he went out, and after all the belongings were done, there was basically nothing left...... She glanced at Wu Zhi, and said a little helplessly: "When the matter in Qingzhou is finished, you will use the remaining silver to buy some gifts, as for the silver money, when the time comes, I will give you all my private money when I return to Hujiazhuang, so as not to let you lose face too much." ”

"Sanniang, how much money do you have?" Wu Zhi continued to tease.

"It's about a thousand taels, less is less, but who made me identify you, and my father won't say much when the time comes."

Speaking of this, Hu Sanniang, who was in Wu Zhi's arms, couldn't help but show a smile.

In fact, Hu Sanniang doesn't care much about the dowry, but for a woman, marriage is the most important event in life, she doesn't want to be hasty and doesn't want to have any regrets, although she understands that Wu Zhi does not have much money, but in the eyes of people, the amount of the dowry determines the man's face and the importance of the woman.

Therefore, she didn't want Wu Zhi to really go empty-handed......

"Good boy! The private house has a thousand taels...... Sure enough, it's Bai Fumei! While sighing in his heart, Wu Zhi was also very moved by Hu Sanniang's willingness to take out his private money for his own use, he hugged Hu Sanniang tightly, and said with a frank smile: "How can I use Sanniang's private money?" Rest assured! I'm ready for the dowry! And it's a big gift, I promise you won't be disappointed, you don't have to worry about it! ”

I don't know why, after listening to Wu Zhi's words, Hu Sanniang actually felt very down-to-earth, she didn't understand why she was like this, obviously Wu Zhi brought so many belongings, where could he give any big gifts?

However, Hu Sanniang didn't ask, because she trusted Wu Zhi.

"That's right!" Suddenly, Hu Sanniang suddenly broke up from Wu Zhi's arms, and said to Wu Zhi with two watery eyes: "It's easy to say the dowry, but I'm afraid of ...... I'm afraid that with my father's temperament, he won't agree to me marrying you! After speaking, Hu Sanniang's face was full of worry.

"Why? Are you already married? ”

After Hu Sanniang finished speaking, Wu Zhi immediately thought of Zhu Biao, who was married to Hu Sanniang in the Water Margin, but it shouldn't be so fast.

"Marriage?" Hu Sanniang shook her head strangely and said, "No, where did I marry someone?" ”

"What's the reason for that?" Wu Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm just afraid...... I'm afraid that my father won't let me marry you...... Make a small ...... Concubine..."In the end, Hu Sanniang's voice was already as thin as a mosquito.

"Hey! So that's it! After hearing this, Wu Zhi waved his hand and said confidently: "Sanniang, don't worry, your father...... My father-in-law, will definitely agree! ”

Wu Zhi also understands this, a goddess like Hu Sanniang, the people of Hujiazhuang will naturally feel that she is wronged by marrying someone as a concubine, not to mention that she is still the third in line...... But Wu Zhi is different from others, Hu Sanniang married Wu Zhi will definitely not let her suffer the slightest grievance.

And the reason why Wu Zhi is so confident is also because his "sincerity" will definitely make the people of Hujiazhuang believe that Hu Sanniang will not be wronged after marrying!

Seeing Hu Sanniang looking up at herself in surprise, Wu Zhi patted Hu Sanniang twice, and continued to comfort: "We have a clear conscience, I believe that my future father-in-law will definitely be ...... by my sincerity."

Before Wu Zhi finished speaking, he saw Hu Sanniang suddenly blushing and turned his head to the side, his neck, which was originally as white as jade, was also red to the earlobe, Wu Zhi didn't know why, and when he looked down, he found that his hand was unconsciously placed on Hu Sanniang's thigh just now.

Wu Zhi's hands were trembling, just because Hu Sanniang's long legs under Hu Sanniang's red skirt were trembling......

Wu Zhi quickly retracted his hand like an electric shock, he didn't want to be kicked out of the carriage after offending Hu Sanniang.

But at this time, Wu Zhi's heart suddenly moved, and he now seemed to understand why Hu Sanniang was so trembling, prostrating, and out of shape when he woke up just now......
