The young man's ancestral home is in Sangshan, which is a small remote place, and they settled here in their early years to do some business.

I never thought that in the summer, the torrential rain and floods raged, and I was robbed and killed by the Great Dragon Gang when I suffered this catastrophe.

Now that his parents are dead and his property is ruined, he knows that he can't support his sister on his own, so he begs Gu Anxia to send them back to his grandfather.

Gu Tianxing shook his head at her fourth uncle, she can't take care of this idle matter, how can she go on the road with a baby?

The young man was stubborn, as if his life was worthless, and followed him to the inn and knelt at the door, kneeling and fainting.

After all, the uncle and nephew were not hard-hearted, so they had to reluctantly agree. Gu Anxia also thoughtfully bought a mule for the young man, after all, he carried a little girl and followed behind, which was really miserable.

The warm breeze was slightly drunk, and the mule's hooves "clicked" and knocked on the ground, adding a bit of leisure.

Gu Tianxing turned his head and found that her fourth uncle took out a booklet and a brush from his arms, and he didn't know when the ink was dry.

"Fourth uncle, what are you writing?"

"I told you about the "Records of Experiences and Experiences" a few days ago," he answered, but he didn't raise his head, and his expression was quite focused.

Gu Tianxing was a little curious, he had made a lot of effort along the way, and he didn't know how the fourth uncle would describe himself.

With some exploration and expectation, I quietly came up.

[In the spring of the forty-ninth year of Changlong, Yu Xing arrived at ...... Suddenly, I saw a young man in Xuanyi holding the 'Bai Yujing' order falling from the sky, the so-called Lianhua Rongzi, Lanzhi Yushu Ying, his son is beautiful, and it is expected that it should be like this......

The bandits, one hundred and eight, were besieged and killed here, and the young man showed mercy on his face, and the canopy between his hands was destroyed. ……

Evil? Immortals? 】

Gu Tianxing: ......

This girl has never seen such a brazen person in her life! Are you writing a real record? This is obviously boasting!

"The son of Piqi is beautiful", this is a naked saying that his own beauty has no limit and cannot be spoken!

Vomit! Look, I want to vomit!

Hum! The point is that my aunt and grandmother have never appeared from beginning to end, so you are ruthless! Broken book!

The uncle and nephew were bickering all the way, and they looked like they were wandering, but they were anxious for the young man who followed them.

The little girl had already woken up, and because she was still too young to eat hard food, she needed to set up a pot to boil porridge every day. Outside is in ruins, there is nothing good, and the young man is worried that his sister will not be dragged down by his body when he recovers from a serious illness.

Fortunately, after continuous inquiry and inquiry, and after walking for more than ten days, I finally found Sangshan.

Fortunately, many people know about the Hua family, and an uncle personally took them to the village to find someone.

The village happened to be doing a happy event, and the old village chief saw that the two of them looked extraordinary, and sent back the orphans for the second room of the Hua family, so he warmly invited the two to go to eat and drink.

The banquet was set up in the open air, and there were as many as seven or eight tables in the rough filter.

In a burst of blowing and firecrackers, a small red sedan chair was carried by two men to the front of the house.

As soon as the bride got off the sedan chair, the eight strong women who followed behind quickly stepped forward, and there was a faint posture of protecting each other.

What makes people feel strange is that as soon as the last sentence of the singer "sent into the cave room" fell, these eight mothers-in-law actually followed the bride away.

"This bride seems to have a lot of wealth, and there are as many as eight mothers-in-law who accompany her to marry! Blessed is the Lord's house. Gu Anxia couldn't help but sigh with the people at the banquet.

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the people at the table changed. There was even an elderly man who said, "Bang! With a bang, he placed the wine cup heavily on the table.

The eldest grandson of the old village chief is also at this table, almost in his early thirties.

He is a scholar, and seeing that Gu Anxia is also wearing a Confucian shirt that can only be worn by a scholar, he secretly wonders that he doesn't know that the other party has a reputation.

I wanted to find a topic to make friends with before, but now that they are being put on the faces of the people in the same village, they are naturally kind to ease up.

"Listening to the two accents, they must not be locals, don't blame those who don't know, second uncle, don't complain about this brother."

After that, he whispered to Gu Anxia and them:

"Brother Tai doesn't know, but there are some different customs in our Sangshan, such as the eight aunts you saw, they are not ...... to marry."

Gu Tianxing listened to it for a long time before he understood, it turned out that there was a kind of woman in this Sangshan, who was called a self-combing girl if she didn't want to marry all her life.

The base camp of this self-combing girl is the "aunt's house", and if the self-combing woman is forcibly arranged by her parents, she will ask for help from the "aunt's house" before she gets married.

The "self-combing girls" who came to the rescue would stay by the edge of the marriage room all night, and as long as their little sisters used force, they would work together to break down the door to rescue her.

In this way, as long as you stay up until the three dynasties return to the door, whether you go back to your parents' house or go to the "aunt's house", you will be considered a complete success in the struggle, and you will officially become a 'self-combing girl'.

It's not ugly, and it's certainly not honorable! The girls are desperate not to marry the young man of this family, and the groom's family and relatives will naturally not be much happy.

Gu Anxia understood what was going on, quickly stood up, and apologized to the old man:

"Hundreds of miles are different, thousands of miles are different. It's the kid who is lonely and unheard, and his knowledge is shallow, and I hope the old man and you will forgive me. ”

The old village chief already had a good impression of the two, and when he saw that his grandson was interested in helping each other, he also took advantage of the situation to make peace, and everyone ate and drank again.

Gu Tianxing was puzzled, he didn't expect that there was a women's alliance in ancient times! This is definitely the germ of a feminist idea!

Is it only different here, or is it also in the south?

In this feudal and backward era, most girls who do not marry will be disliked by their parents, so what do these "self-combing girls" rely on to survive?

She's not one to put up with, but it's clearly not a good time to ask questions. I could only wait until more than half of the banquet was full, and began to brag and nag each other, and then whispered to my fourth uncle to ask.

"Don't complain about Brother Tai's question, the situation in Sangshan is indeed quite different.

About a dozen villages around Sangshan have been living by raising silkworms and weaving silk for hundreds of years, and these jobs are light and easy for women to do. ”

What he didn't say was that women were good at this work, and they often earned much more than men.

Gu Tianxing suddenly, no wonder women here are so bold and independent, it turns out that it is caused by productivity, who has high ability and can make money, who has the right to speak!

"So, if there is only money, what will happen after a hundred years? Wouldn't you even be able to find a place to go?! ”

After all, Gu Anxia is an authentic ancient, although he often says that he is silent and strange, but he highly respects the theory of returning to the roots.

"Brother Gu doesn't know, there is still a saying of 'buying door' here.

It is to the effect that the 'self-combing women' will use silver money to buy the identity of a deceased wife from a man who has died young, and then hide it in the man's ancestral grave after death. ”

The young man paused and continued:

"In the countryside, children are already prone to death. Ordinary people get a lot of money for nothing, and they are considered to be married to their children, and they are all happy. ”

Gu Anxia listened carefully, and when he needed the material for his "Records of Experiences and Experiences", he entrusted the young man to take him to visit Xiasang Mountain and the place where silkworms were raised.

He didn't think about it that much, after all, it was not a secret, and he heard that there were many people who went south to raise silkworms and silk.

The young people are a little embarrassed, Sangshan is located in a remote area, and it can be relatively rich, all relying on the work of raising silkworms and making tough silk.

The silk threads they make are soft and tough, which is quite different from the outside, how can it be easily shown to outsiders!

But as soon as he heard that Gu Anxia was already a child, and this trip was to travel and write books, he was a little loose, and only said that he would try to see if he could convince the villagers.

This person's attitude towards Gu Anxia was also a little respectful, and he warmly invited the two to stay at his house, and took out a dusty village chronicle with his father to show them.

The young scholar looked at Gu Anxia, who was carefully looking through the village chronicles, and secretly thought in his heart:

This person is a child at a young age, and if it weren't for the cancellation of Qiuqiu, he wouldn't have gone further, so he should have a good fate.

Moreover, after his future travel is completed and the book is completed, there will definitely be a section of Sangshan, and his name will not be missed!

Outside the house, the old village chief was smoking a dry cigarette and his heart suddenly stopped, isn't this person here for our livelihood? How can you go around and ask about silkworm raising and silk production?

He shook his head secretly, and saw that the clothes they wore were all made of fine silk, not to mention the rich, and by no means a family that lacked money.

That's it, as long as you cover the layer of silk making, it is not a big deal to see silkworm raising, after all, there are many silkworms and silkworms in the south.

Can people still put their fame and fame away and steal the work of our little people!

Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, and walked towards the flower family in the village who was an expert in silkworm making.

The Hua family is the ancestral home of the brother and sister sent back by the uncle and nephew, and his family has done the best work of raising silkworms and making silk, and is quite prestigious in the village.

If his family agreed to let Gu Anxia take a look, the rest of the village would naturally not have any opinions.
