Chapter 1007 The Ownership of a Cabbage (II)

Zhao Xing was not in a hurry, Cheng Tong was very anxious, seeing Zhao Xing shaking his head, he didn't care about continuing to pretend to be an old fox, and said in a snort: "Master, my Cheng family is from the Cheng family, and I have been living away from the clan for many years. The greatest wish of our clan is to return to our hometown to worship our ancestors, so that the people of Jiangxia Changzhi know that Cheng Jiaao has not dishonored the name of Jiangxia Cheng.

Two Jiazi, earlier, the ancestors of my family did their best for the prosperity of Cheng Jiaao, and only when they were old did they take care of the inheritance, the successive patriarchs have kept in mind the family motto, and the four generations in a row have been married to the old people, for what - it is not easy to live in the mountains.

Since the master came, God opened his eyes, and my Cheng Jiaao has been rich for three consecutive years, which can be regarded as 'sufficient food and clothing'. If there is another tribute, even if it is only one tribute, we can become naturalized and no longer become a foreigner. At that time, Cheng Jiaao, surnamed Cheng, swaggered to Jiangxia...... Master, you are the great hero of my Cheng Jiaao, and my Cheng Jiaao will remember your great kindness for generations!

Master, I know that you are talented, and you are full of knowledge and have not yet used half of it, so reach out to help my Cheng clan! What do you want, my Cheng clan promises you! ”

Zhao Xing pondered for a moment and replied, "Okay!" ”

Zhao Xing made up his mind: I don't believe it, "modern professional corrosives" can't get a small county order in the Song Dynasty?

"When you go to the exam, the most urgent need is to buy books", Zhao Xing only has a thousand-character text, a three-character scripture, and a hundred family names on hand. For those who are examined, "Yi Guanyi", "Book of Songs", "Book of Books", "Zhou Li", and "Book of Rites" are called the Great Classics, and "Analects" and "Mencius" are called the Sutras, which are required reading for the examiners.

These books could be bought nearby, but Zhao Xing also needed a dictionary, and he didn't know if there were any in the Song Dynasty. So you need to go to the big city and look it up.

"These books, it is estimated that Huangzhou can't buy them, so I have to go to Yangzhou, or Quanzhou...... Just Quanzhou", why Quanzhou, because Zhao Xing was not naturalized, but he inquired, the port cities of this era are Quanzhou, Guangzhou, and Mingzhou, and only similar cities with dense foreign populations, such as Zhao Xing, who are particularly different, can ZìYóu breathe without being conspicuous.

"Listen to the master", Cheng Tong replied without hesitation.

The next step is to confirm the student status.

Generally speaking, the number of tributes is 80 to 1 of the ratio of candidates, and the number of tributes in Huangzhou is more, but it is easy to do tricks.

"Huangzhou, okay, my Cheng Jiaao was not registered originally, this time it is cheaper in Huangzhou", Cheng Tong immediately made a decision, and then said: "We will be naturalized in Huangzhou Fucheng, and this place will be regarded as a mountain residence (a mountain farm belonging to the gentry)."

The master took the river boat to Huangzhou Mansion - the master said: This boat has no sails, and it is extremely inconvenient to travel against the current, but this boat is extremely stable, and it is just right to use it for ferrying in Huangzhou. I plan to sell the boat in Huangzhou, and add some money to the clan to buy two big ships. After that, the master traveled back and forth to Huangzhou, and there was no need to take mountain roads. ”

As he was talking, Cheng Xia led several classmates in with a smile, and they carried Cheng Azhu's cage box, which contained her dowry. Those classmates seemed to be smiling, standing at the door and not knowing how to take the next step, Zhao Xing's expression was indifferent, and he sat on the stool and ate tea leisurely. Cheng Azhu was making soup at his feet, his ears were as red as cherries, and he didn't even dare to lift his eyelids.

Seeing this scene, Cheng Tong coughed dryly: "Master, Azhu's matter is so decided?" …… I don't know when the master plans to get married, so let the clan prepare? ”

Zhao Xing didn't know if the Song Dynasty had such a rule - men and women could live together if they were engaged. Perhaps, this is just Cheng Tong's illegal cāo. He lifted his eyelids and said unconsciously, "Too small!" …… It's better to wait a few years! ”

Cheng Tong asked tentatively: "How is Ming Chun?" Ah Zhu originally planned to get married next spring, but I think that if the master and son get married next spring, they will be able to catch up with the spring festival. ”

Zhao Xing means: At such a young age, if Azhu gets married in a hurry, it will be dangerous when giving birth. In ancient times, the reason why the dystocia rate was so high and the survival rate of young children was low had a lot to do with the young age at which women got married. …… However, this truth is not clear to the Song people.

Cheng Tong means that it is best for Zhao Xing to marry Azhu before the Spring Festival next year, so that he can participate in Jiangxia to worship his ancestors as the son-in-law of the Cheng family...... Of course, all this is on the premise that Zhao Xing will complete the state exam this fall.

"Okay, then before Zhengdan rì...... 20 rì of the lunar month", Zhao Xing flipped through the book casually and replied lightly.

"So...... The gentlemen, when they came in, they saw the Zhuru people (in the Song Dynasty, the wives of low-level officials were called widows, and the people also used them as honorific titles). In the future, Ah Zhu will be the teacher's Hun family (wife), don't be ** seniority", Cheng Tong greeted the group of children.
