Not to mention Yang Zongbao, even Huang Dalang himself didn't expect that the marriage would be decided like this, although Uncle Sun Qi said that he was looking down on who was who, but Yang Zongbao dared to look down on any of them?

Don't look at Yang Zongbao, he can be regarded as murderous, but it is the first time that he has encountered this kind of Lalang match, and he has also made a big red face. However, he finally collected the settling-in fee, and I don't know if he was going to use it as a dowry or for other purposes.

After everyone has collected the gold, Huang Dalang asked Fushou to put the banquet on the table, and took the wine and started eating, perhaps because he was drunk at noon, everyone ate and drank a lot, and Yang Zongbao also got his wish and made three small bowls of wine with everyone.

It's just that Huang Dalang saw that there were not many people who were really happy, Lei Bao and Lu Er were worried, and the flowers became a gourd, but Hu Ren was restless, his eyes were always sweeping towards the door, as if he was looking forward to someone.

This wine is enough to eat until the third watch, the second day Huang Dalang got up to practice martial arts as usual and then went to school in the school, and when he came back from school in the afternoon, he heard Sun Li say that Uncle Sun took Yang Zongbao to Sun's house early this morning, and he had not come back at this time. As for Huatong, he greeted Lei Bao and Sun Li at noon, saying that he was going out to run errands and was going to go to his hometown in Qingzhou, and he would turn back in three months at most.

This night, the drunk Yang Zongbao was carried back by Uncle Sun Jiu, looking at Uncle Sun Jiu's red face, he didn't have to guess that good things were coming.

After that, everyone rested in the Huang family for a few days, until the first set on the third day of the first month of October, Sun Qishu led Sun Xin, Zhang He, Zhu Gao, Hu Ren and Lu Er out of Huangzhou with 10,000 yuan of money, and went straight to Qichun.

On the ninth day of October in the second year of Zhenghe, on the shore of Taihu Lake in Wu County, Suzhou, hundreds of people were pulling ropes and dragging two barges slowly northward. The barge is connected with a rope, carrying a huge Taihu Lake stone, which looks like it has just come out of the water.

This Taihu Lake stone, also known as hole stone, rockery stone, is a garden stone commonly used in classical Chinese gardens, one of the famous four famous stones and strange stones in ancient China, because it is abundant in the Taihu Lake area and famous in ancient and modern times, it is a kind of exquisite and transparent ornamental stone.

Taihu Lake stone is native to the water of Taihu Lake in Dongting Mountain, Suzhou, and is divided into two types: water stone and dry stone. Water stones are slowly formed in rivers and lakes after being washed by water waves and eroded over time; Dry stone is formed by the erosion of acidic red soil by limestone in geological time. Taihu Lake stone has different shapes, thousands of postures, psychic and clear, its color is more than white stone, there are few blue and black stones, yellow stones, yellow is the rarest, fully embodies the beauty of "wrinkles, leaks, thinness, penetration", due to the impact of water waves for many years, Taihu Lake stone produces many nest holes, perforations, road holes, the shape is peculiar and complete, it is favored by gardeners since ancient times, can be placed separately, or stacked as rockeries, has a high ornamental value.

It can be said that the main composition of this flower stone class is this Taihu Lake stone.

In the dragging team, several ragged people were dragging hard, but they were secretly discussing something in the local dialect of Suzhou and Hangzhou.

I saw one of them, a man who was more than six feet tall and had tangled muscles in his shoulders and back, and said in a local dialect: "Grass carp roe, you heard the news seriously, if there is really a good man who destroyed the flower and stone gang?" ”

A young man in his early twenties struggled to pull the rope and said in a low voice: "Brother Yin, this matter is serious, and now it has spread all over Suzhou City!" It is also said that those heroes who call themselves the Heavenly Dao Alliance have also robbed 100,000 pieces of money, but they have spread all over Gwangju, more than ten times from poor families, and five or seven times from poor households. ”

Brother Na Yin sneered and said: "Not to mention the case that was only done on the fifteenth day of last month, it has not been a full month now, and it is a heel to have news to come, but as you said, it is for the Heavenly Dao card, how can it be done?" Besides, you have been eating and living with us in the past few days, how did you get the news of Suzhou again? ”

The grass carp roe's face turned red when he heard this, and he argued: "Brother Yin, don't believe it, after work, you can go to the county to eat a bowl of tea and listen." ”

When he was talking, there was a snap, and the clothes on the back of the grass carp roe were instantly torn, and a bloodstained whip mark immediately appeared, and the grass carp roe was pumped and fell to the ground with a bang, and everyone in Lasso looked back and glared, but they didn't dare to make a sound, so they could only move forward.

The official who whipped the grass carp roe glared at the grass carp roe lying on his stomach and shouted, "You can't get up yet, you want to eat it again?" ”

Grass carp roe gritted his teeth and endured the hot pain on his back, hurriedly got up and followed, pulled the rope and continued to move forward, and after walking another hundred and ten steps, he saw that the official who was watching had gone to a distance, so he asked in a low voice: "Brother Yin, how is it?" ”

Brother Yin turned his head to look at him, and said in a low voice: "Go back and talk about it!" ”

On this day, the people took the barge and traveled north for nearly 40 miles, until a port did not stop to rest, the official sent money for the people to buy rice and grain, and rented pots and bowls and firewood and grass, and made food by the lake, and cut down firewood and grass to build a grass nest, and the people went into the grass nest to rest.

These people were originally recruited by Wu County to repair the city, and they borrowed the official errand of the Ying Feng Bureau to transport the flower stone gang halfway, but Brother Na Yin was a stonemason in the countryside of Shezhou (Huizhou), in addition to this, he also had an identity in private, which was a small commander of the Ming Sect.

Mingjiao, or Manichaeism, was introduced from Persia during the Tang Dynasty and extended to the present day, when it was founded in the 3rd century AD, roughly equivalent to the Wei and Jin dynasties in China. In the Song Dynasty, Manichaeism was paraphrased as "Mingjiao", and the teachings were concisely summarized as "pure, bright, vigorous, and wise".

Among the congregations are peasants, talents, officials, soldiers, heroes of the green forest, Jiangyang thieves, and martial arts Junyan. The believers are white-clothed and black-hatted, secretly form a society, and jointly worship the Ming envoy as the god of the church. At that time, because it was in a state of secret association, in order to avoid people's eyes and ears and avoid being banned by the government, the name of the religion also had a variety of aliases - in addition to Zhejiang called Manichaeism, Fujian called Mingjiao, according to Lu You's "Weinan Anthology" volume 5 "Article Pair", Huainan called "Erjunizi", Jiangdong called "Siguo", Jiangxi called "King Kong Chan", Fujian also called "Jiedi Zhai" and so on.

Mingjiao in the Song and Yuan dynasties further combined with China's local culture, became a form of struggle between the lower class people and the people of the rivers and lakes against the imperial court, because the Mingjiao was suppressed by the imperial court for a long time, acted extremely secretively, and sometimes was also misunderstood by the "white way" of the rivers and lakes, compared with the ordinary people in the rivers and lakes, the Mingjiao people faced greater pressure, so the resistance to the imperial court was also more resolute, and it set off a big wave several times in history.

It is only said that this night, Brother Yin'er's grass nest is quite lively, people come in and out from time to time, and the people who come out all look at the barge moored on the lake and the officials who eat wine and roast on the boat, and their eyes are fierce.
