In the courtyard, the team to welcome relatives has been prepared, and the aunts and daughters-in-law who live in the neighborhood have also rushed to join in the fun and help manage the marriage.

The groom's official Zhu Chuanwen was dressed in a robe made of black fabric, with a big red flower on his chest, and a melon skin hat covering his bald head in front of his forehead, but the hair on the back of his head was still messy.

Or that men don't know how to dress up!

In the new century, this kind of man still wants to get married and dream!

This is also Yuan Pengfei's eyes only have others, not himself. If he's lucky enough to look at himself in a mirror, he'll know he's not much better.

Even this tattered clothes are not as good as Zhu Chuanwen.

Wen Ta Niang saw Yuan Peng flying out, and said with a smile: "It's just right, everyone is here, hurry up and go on the road to welcome the new daughter-in-law!" ”

Zhu Chuanwen thought that the new daughter-in-law hadn't slept all night, and he couldn't wait for a long time now, so he got his mother's instructions and said to the welcoming team: "Hey, okay, the joy is blowing, welcome the new daughter-in-law!" ”

The three brothers of the Zhu family took the lead in stepping out of the courtyard door and walked in the front, and there was a helper pulling a donkey carrying a bag of stone millet in the back, walking in the back of the greeting band, gongs and drums sounded, suona blowing, and this joyful atmosphere was created by banging and beating.

Yuan Pengfei is Zhu Kaishan's righteous son, of course, he has to follow the three brothers of the Zhu family and follow him to greet his relatives.

But it's not a smooth road.

As soon as he walked out of the two miles, more than a dozen bandits popped out of the mountain road, holding large blades in their hands to rob the road.

The years are different, and the bandits' equipment is not the same. At this time, guns were not yet rampant, and the bandits were armed with large blades. In the chaotic years of the warlords of the Republic of China, if there were not more than a dozen rifles, they would dare to rob the road?

The bandits who were eliminated after the end of the Anti-Japanese War were armed with semi-automatic rifles and submachine guns, which is even more incomparable.

When he encountered this kind of rudimentary bandit, Yuan Pengfei, who had a kitchen knife in his waist, had to be happy!

Zhu Chuanwen is an honest farmer, he doesn't have two taels of ink in his stomach, and he doesn't know how to deal with it. Zhu Chuanwu is just stunned, and he has no experience if he is reckless.

The other people who came to greet their relatives were all helpers from the village, and it was okay to let them help make a living, and they didn't have the courage to fight against the bandits with big blades!

And the first words of the bandits eliminated all their worries, everyone: "Don't resist indifferently, we don't harm people's lives!" ”

Everyone sweeps the snow in front of the door, and doesn't care about the frost on the tiles of others, so there is no reason for others to resist.

let the bandits rob it, and Yuan Pengfei can't agree to it!

He took two steps forward and observed the expressions of the group, "Heroes, we were wronged in the past?" ”

"No injustice."

The leading man hung a short knife on his chest and replied expressionlessly.

"We've had a feud lately?"

"There's no hatred either."

"That's for the money?"

"Not for money."

"And what are you doing it for?

"To live!"

"That's for food!" Yuan Pengfei said firmly.

The man pulled out the short knife on his chest, nodded and said, "Little brother is a person who understands, there is no life without food in these years, we only want to live, not anything else." ”

Seeing that the leading bandits had set up their knives, Zhu Chuanwen was a little stunned, it was about his marriage today, and he didn't even dare to say a word.

Zhu Chuanwu was very tough, glaring at these bandits with angry eyes, and his fists were clenched and ready to pounce.

Zhu Chuanjie is still a little child, but he is very clever, so he ran back and reported to his mother.

As for the others, they were more than ten meters away from them one by one, for fear that they would be injured by the bandits.

Yuan Pengfei somewhat understood why such a bandit could rob people of food.

Because although the opponent is very vegetable, at most it is bronze. But their gang is worse than their opponents, and they belong to scrap metal that can't even be ranked in bronze. It's normal to be crushed.

It's Yuan Pengfei's turn to be a little master who has reached the golden rank in martial arts.

Without giving the man a chance to react, Yuan Pengfei's left-hand kitchen knife resisted his short knife, punched his nose, smashed his neck with an elbow, and dried his stomach with one knee.

The man fell to the ground in an instant, clutching his stomach and nosebleed, and his mouth was still humming and screaming in pain.

Yuan Pengfei was unforgiving, and knocked down one of his subordinates who was holding a ring-headed broadsword beside him twice, picked up the broadsword and rushed left and right, cutting down three or four in one go.

His blood-red eyes glanced at the other bandits, but none of the bandits dared to step forward again, but moved back cautiously one by one, for fear of being targeted by Yuan Pengfei.

"Humph!" He took half of the clothes he had torn off in the fight just now, wiped the blood stains on the ring knife, and said in a deep voice: "Today is my brother's big day, and I don't see any sword soldiers, so this knife and war horse will be handed over to me for preservation, do you have any opinions?" ”

Who dares to have an opinion, isn't that impatient life?

A group of bandits put down their weapons, carefully supported the few guys who were defeated, and fled in disgrace under Yuan Pengfei's impatient urging.

Five war horses, a dozen weapons, this is worth more than that stone of millet. However, in this year of famine, even gold is not as important as food, and if you starve to death, there is nothing.

Zhu Chuanwu didn't expect Yuan Pengfei, who had always been inconspicuous, to be so powerful, and directly drove the bandits away.

He came up to him and said excitedly, "Brother Pengfei, your martial arts are really powerful, I want to learn martial arts from you, okay?" ”

Yuan Pengfei smiled and was about to agree, but Zhu Chuanwen frowned and said: "Woe to you, provoked these bandits, will we have a good life in the future?" ”

Obviously, he was worried that the bandits would retaliate in the future, but why did this sound so unpleasant! It seems that this matter was provoked by him Yuan Pengfei.

Wen Ta Niang also arrived at this time, and heard the words of his son, if it weren't for this happy day, she would have to go up to teach him a lesson.

"Quickly apologize to your brother Pengfei, without him, your daughter-in-law today wouldn't want to marry." Wen Ta Niang reprimanded.

Zhu Chuanwen apologized to Yuan Pengfei and asked his mother: "Mother, what should I do next, do you still marry?" ”

"I have to marry! This bride is still waiting for you at home! Wen Ta Niang looked at Yuan Pengfei and said a little embarrassed, "Pengfei, I have to work hard for you to protect them to welcome their relatives, don't be killed by these bandits." ”

Yuan Pengfei is a righteous son after all, and sometimes it will make people think too much when he talks heavily, and it hurts his heart. It doesn't matter if Chuanwu Chuanjie is ignorant, she always has to take care of her as a mother.

"Godmother, don't worry, with me, the robbers won't dare to come back."

Even if he looks at Zhu Kaishan's face, he will not really be angry with Zhu Chuanwen.

This time, the team to welcome the relatives is a shotgun for a cannon, and the groom official has ridden on a horse, although the posture is not very good, and he has to pass the martial arts to lead the horse, but how to say that it is also a bit of the groom's official style.

In Tanjia Village, Tan Xian'er's father is talking to some of his relatives and friends, discussing this family business.

A relative of the Tan family sighed: "Xian'er and Chuanwen are also a good match, the marriage was done early in the morning, and the daughter is at home, and she gets a lot of food a year!" ”

The water spilled by the married daughter can be regarded as speaking to Daddy Tan's heart.

"Who said no, I've urged this several times, to tell you the truth, I didn't ask their family for any dowry, I just wanted a stone of millet, isn't it too much?"

Everyone did not respond, a stone of millet, it depends on when, it is nothing in ordinary years, but if it is placed in this famine year, it is the life of several families.

It is not uncommon for young strong laborers to go to the mountains to become bandits for their lives, for the old and weak to sell their fields and borrow debts for their lives, and even more miserable to sell their sons and daughters.

This stone millet, which one of the present can easily take it out?

In the years of famine, this is quite a lot.

Daddy Tan himself knew that this was too much to ask, but he couldn't help it, because he also had his own difficulties.

He explained: "You may not know that my noble son and the daughter of the spoon head Sun Dashou are married, and they don't ask for any bride price, they just want that stone of millet."

No, Xian'er and his mother combined, you see, if there is such a stone of millet, the marriage of these two children will be completed, right.

So, if you don't have this stone millet, you won't be able to get through it from me! ”

Daddy Tan's idea is what the vast majority of people think at this time, even in the new century, how many fathers-in-law and mothers-in-law also have this idea.

A daughter can marry, but the bride price cannot be less. Without the bride price that meets your heart, no matter how happy you are, sweet and sweet, beating mandarin ducks is definitely something they can make.
