Chapter 90: The Pearl of the Palm
"It's a shame!" Zhao Xiucai shook his head and asked Liu Yuanshan with some puzzlement: "Why does San Lang have such a hobby?" ”
Liu Yuanshan smiled slightly, thought for a while and said, "What I love is natural beauty!" ”
originally wanted to criticize the bad habit of foot binding in the Ming Dynasty, but Liu Yuanshan saw that he did not have the power to resist the whole society, so he did not say anything. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoEven the barbaric and powerful Qing Empire in later generations, after the initial relaxation, was forced to obey after less than twenty years, what is his ability now?
But there is one good thing in the Ming Dynasty, that is, foot binding has not yet spread to the lower classes, and it is only popular in the upper classes, and even women in the upper classes are not everyone who binds their feet. There were no mandatory rules for women's foot binding, which was basically a free act in this era.
"It's a pity, it's a pity!" Liu Yuanshan's refusal is not leaky, and Zhao Xiucai has nothing to do, even if he wants to marry his sister-in-law to someone else, he can't force him to buy and sell.
It's a pity that Zhao Xiucai is not alone, many people also shook their heads after listening to Liu Yuanshan's request.
Ye Yunhe was secretly proud, and finally found an excuse, so he ignored the others and fired at Liu Yuanshan, and said magnificently: "Liu Shentong's hobby is really different from the ordinary, he doesn't love little feet and big feet, hahaha, hahaha......"
He ridiculed to his heart's content, completely ignoring the surprised eyes of the people around him, and naturally he didn't see the cannibalistic gaze in the eyes of the little county lord.
Liu Yuanshan smiled calmly, did not forcibly refute or insult, but asked calmly: "What's wrong with this?" ”
"Of course it's not right, it's a big mistake!" Zhao Xiucai said: "If you dare to marry a big-footed girl, you are guaranteed to attract ridicule, it is simply insulting!" ”
"Humph! And insult Sven, you think too much! Liu Yuanshan shook his head and asked slowly: "Since the Qin and Han dynasties, the Sui and Tang dynasties, and even the five dynasties and two Song dynasties, there has been no custom of women binding their feet, is it possible that the scholars in the Qin, Han, Tang and Song dynasties have insulted Sven?" ”
Ye Yunhe was speechless, and Liu Yuanshan made up again: "Your father's ancestors never married a small-footed woman in ancient times, is it also insulting!" ”
"You, you ......" Ye Yunhe said: "Time has changed, you are the advantage of your tongue!" ”
"Well said!" The little lord's face changed, and he applauded at the top.
Xiangwang Zhu Yiming smiled, today's mood is exceptionally good, looked at Liu Yuanshan and waved his hand and said, "Liu Yuanshan, you sit back." ”
Liu Yuanshan sat back in his seat, Zhu Yiming groped out a pair of bright and slightly yellowish beads from his arms and put them in the palm of his hand, held them up a foot high from the small table, and said: "Liu Gongzi opened the eyes of the old man today, only to know that there are strange people in the world, and he has added another pillar to my Ming Dynasty, and this pair of Nanzhu will be given to you!" ”
It is generally difficult to exceed one centimeter in diameter of ordinary southern pearls, but the two southern pearls in the hands of King Xiang are not only superior in color and luster, but also large enough in size, in Liu Yuanshan's words, the diameter is almost three centimeters in size, and what is even more rare is that the two southern pearls are almost identical.
"This ......" Liu Yuanshan looked at Zhu Yiming with some flattery, and said with a wry smile: "This gift is really a bit heavy, and the kid is useless." ”
"Take it, give it to the elders, don't say goodbye!" Zhu Yiming looked at Liu Yuanshan and smiled gently.
Liu Yuanshan had no choice but to bite the bullet and take this pair of pearls next, with mixed feelings in his heart.
The people in the room couldn't help but be surprised, King Xiang didn't send gold and silver or money, but came up and gave them a pair of precious and abnormal pearls, which couldn't help but make them cranky.
This pearl, the pearl in the palm, the palm of the palm......
Ye Yunhe's face turned black in an instant.
Liu Yuanshan didn't think about it so much, just took the pearl and stuffed it into his sleeve very casually, and thanked Zhu Yiming, the king of Xiang, again.
The little county lord on the side had a red face, as if he was drunk, bright and attractive.
King Xiang waved his hand and said, "Don't be polite!" In the future, study hard, he will win the field every day, and this king will give you a priceless pearl! As he spoke, his eyes glanced at his daughter beside him.
Liu Yuanshan was so shocked that cold sweat flowed down, King Xiang almost said I want to marry my daughter to you, even if he reacts slowly at this moment, he knows what the old guy means.
The little county lord's face was flushed, and he had no idea about his father's family business.
If you want to talk about Liu Yuanshan, it doesn't seem to be so annoying, sometimes it's quite fun to play with him, and this guy is very smart, and he looks okay. It's just that the door is a little low.
The little lord couldn't say whether he liked it or not, and he didn't know whether he should remind his father not to be anxious. At this moment, she stood up with a flushed face and said, "Father, I'm a little unwell, go to the warm pavilion to rest for a while!" ”
The sound is like a mosquito, almost inaudible.
"Go ahead!" King Xiang waved his hand, as if nothing had happened, and as if what he had just said had no other meaning at all.
This is the old fox, no matter whether he will give his daughter to Liu Yuanshan in the future, there is room for what he says, and all his retreats have been planned in three sentences, but Liu Yuanshan is roasted on the fire.
The eyes of everyone present looking at Liu Yuanshan at this moment were slightly different from the surprise and appreciation that had just been revealed, and there was a trace of awe and envy in it.
Zhao Xiucai let out a long sigh, Wang Xiucai had a smile on his face, and Ye Yunhe looked at Liu Yuanshan through gritted teeth, not hiding the hatred in his eyes at all.
The next poetry meeting has no charm, the biggest winner has been determined, and everyone is just coping.
After a while, the meeting dispersed and the people left.
Outside, the north wind was still blowing, but the snow was lighter.
Liu Yuanshan walked behind Wang Xiucai, Wang Xiucai suddenly turned his head and asked with a smile: "What good thing do you think about with your head down?" ”
Liu Yuanshan was startled, frowned at the sky, and said, "The disciple is thinking that the snow is a lot lighter now, should we go back, I miss my sister and my mother." ”
"You can see it!" Wang Xiucai smiled, he thought that Liu Yuanshan was still lowering his head and thinking about the matter of King Xiang and the little county lord just now, but he didn't expect this thing to be so heartless, as if he didn't take this matter to heart at all.
"Don't you like the little princess?" Wang Xiucai asked.
"It's fine!"
Liu Yuanshan looked at the sky for a long time, suddenly smiled, and said heartily: "But so what? The disciple chooses a wife in principle! ”
Wang Xun suddenly thought of what he said about Tianzu before, and was stunned for no reason, and asked: "You kid is really serious, in case the daughter of the prince's family is a little foot, you really won't marry?" ”
Liu Yuanshan didn't answer, just shook his head firmly.
