Chapter 117: What is Throwing a Hydrangea?
After Li Gengyun and He Jin left Xianyang Pass, Song Qing and they also began to retreat to the Pingyang Mountains under the arrangement of Zhuge Zhang, and unconsciously Xianyang Pass became an empty city, and all the baggage in the city was emptied by Song Qing, according to Song Qing's theory, not a single mouse poop was kept for the Northern Yuan people.
After three days of travel, Li Gengyun and He Jin arrived in Yangcheng smoothly, with the previous experience of entering Pingyang Pass, Li Gengyun talked to He Jin well before entering Yangcheng, and at the same time went a few taels of silver from the other party's package as a toll.
After He Jin's troublemaking this time, the two quickly entered Yangcheng.
"Brother Yun, why don't we go eat something delicious first. After walking for three days, my beak faded out of the smell of birds. ”
He Jin was also a little depressed, he was on the road for three days in a row, and basically spent his time eating dry food, so he finally entered Yangcheng, and naturally wanted to eat a good meal.
"Hmmm! Also! ”
Li Gengyun had the same idea in his heart, he had eaten dry bread for three days, and he hadn't even drunk a mouthful of broth, so he really had to eat some meat to replenish his body when he arrived in Yangcheng.
"Hurry, hurry! The daughter outside the forester is going to throw a hydrangea! Hurry up! ”
"Outside the forester, are you talking about the forester outside Yangcheng Mizhuang?"
"Who else but him!"
Li Gengyun and the others had just entered the city, and they were planning to find a restaurant to eat something delicious, and many young and middle-aged men on the way ran towards the inner city. When He Jin heard what they said, he was very curious about what this hydrangea throwing was, so he asked Li Gengyun, "Brother Yun, what is a hydrangea toss?" ”
"Well, this hydrangea throwing is that in order to choose a husband for their daughter, a large family will set up a meeting on a high platform somewhere in the city, as long as the man who participates in the meeting can catch the hydrangea thrown by the woman, he can be the woman's husband."
Li Gengyun has read a lot of books, of course, there are a lot of hydrangea throwing scenes on TV, even if you haven't experienced it personally, you know what kind of situation it is.
"Then let's go check it out?"
He Jin knew in Menglin Village that this way of marriage was the words of the matchmaker of his parents, and the first time he heard that there was a person who chose a husband by throwing a hydrangea, which was indeed very novel, and he also wanted to see this novelty in his heart.
"What's so nice about throwing hydrangeas, you look at these people, look at their clothes, you know that they are not big families, listen to what they say, this forester is the boss of Yangcheng Rice Village. They didn't go for other people's daughters, but for the Lin family's property. This Miss Lin shouldn't look very good. ”
Li Gengyun saw those men running past them, all of them were dressed very ordinary, these people should be ordinary people. If Miss Lin is as beautiful as a flower, it is impossible to attract only these ordinary people to grab hydrangeas, and the sons and daughters of those big families must also set off in full gear and go all out.
"If you don't look beautiful, just ask if you don't know! Hey! He Jin smiled, then grabbed the man who ran past him, and asked the other party viciously, "Hey! What does this Miss Lin family look like? ”
"Ouch, scare me! You are so rude, this son ......" Although the man's clothes were also very ordinary, it could be seen that the other party was a scholar, because he still held a copy of "Public Opinion" in his other hand.
But before he could finish speaking, He Jin shouted loudly: "Grandma Shaote's bragging, my Brother Yun has said it, you are all ordinary people, return your son, say it quickly!" ”
The man was glared at by He Jin with fierce eyes, and immediately trembled with fright: "Okay, the hero spares his life!" This Miss Lin is the first beauty in Yangcheng......"
"Go!"
After He Jin heard this sentence "Miss Lin is the first beauty in Yangcheng", he kicked on the scholar's buttocks, then turned his head and said to Li Gengyun with a smile: "Brother Yun, that person said that Miss Lin is the first beauty in Yangcheng." Let's go and join in the fun! ”
"Eh, Ah Jin, you're too rude like this. When you ask someone to ask, you have to be humble! Are you alright, sir! ”
Li Gengyun was a little angry, he saw that the scholar was kicked down by He Jin, and he also stepped forward to help the other party up, but he didn't expect the other party to glare at him viciously, and said: "You wait for me, wait for me to marry Miss Lin, see how I clean you up!" ”
"Good intentions are not rewarded?" After Li Gengyun heard the other party's words, he immediately felt that there was something wrong with this person's worldview, and he apologized to him, but the other party not only did not accept it, but said that he would clean them up. But the most important thing is that this person is also so confident, he is so confident that he can snatch Miss Lin's hydrangea from so many people?
"What the hell are you talking about! Believe it or not, I'll tear your mouth apart! ”
After being told by Li Gengyun, He Jin was also a little restrained, if it was placed in normal times, it would definitely be fists and feet, but now he can only scold his mother very politely.
"Let's go, then let's go see the excitement."
"Okay!"
When He Jin heard that Li Gengyun agreed, a smile appeared on his face, and he dragged him and the crowd towards the inner city.
"Ah Jin, I have to warn you, this time we are passing through Yangcheng, you must not cause me any trouble. We'll just take a look outside when we grab the hydrangea later, don't go in. According to my plan, I will arrive in Xiangzhou before the winter, and after the winter, ......"
Before Li Gengyun finished speaking, He Jin was already laughing impatiently, and kept urging: "I know, I know!" Brother Yun, I promise you, I will never snatch hydrangeas this time! Even if I grab it, I don't want it! ”
"Ah Jin, you!"
Li Gengyun was completely speechless, this He Jin obviously didn't just want to join in the fun, he also wanted to grab the hydrangea, but the last sentence was true, He Jin wouldn't really grab the hydrangea to marry Miss Nalin. Because in his mind, being a general is far more important than marrying a wife, so even if he grabs it in the end, he will definitely throw it out.
The two slowly walked towards the inner city, and at this time, more and more men passed by them, not only young and middle-aged, but even many middle-aged and elderly men also joined the team. At the same time, several groups of troops appeared in the ranks in an orderly manner. The dress of these groups of people is obviously different from the others, and each group of people is uniformly dressed, and among them is a high-spirited son-in-law, who arrogantly drives away the people in front of them all the way.
"Get out of the way!"
"Zhao Gongzi of Qianzhuang!"
"The prince of the Wang family in the south of the city is also here!"
"Wow, isn't this Qiu Gongzi of the Yiyun Chamber of Commerce! Even he's here! ”
