Sitting with Xiaofuzi on a few crooked benches behind his baking stall, the kid moved away from Xiaofuzi, and then farther away, I know that most people are a little afraid of Xiaofuzi, so they didn't stop him, but said kindly: "Uncle, if you move your butt again, you will sit on the ground." ”

Xiao Lao'er glanced at Xiao Fuzi, but now that he closed his eyes slightly, he ignored him, and he didn't move anymore, and said, "Aren't I afraid of squeezing this little brother?" ”

I smiled and said, "Aren't you going to tell me about your surprise, sir?" ”

The little old man got up embarrassed and said: "It's not an unexpected joy, it may not be worth mentioning for you, it's a matter of a hundred taels of silver......."

Look at him proudly, he got a hundred taels of silver, and said that it was not a joy of the intention, I stared at him in surprise, looked at him left and right, and made sure that there was no eavesdropping, and then said: "Uncle a hundred taels of silver, the average person can use it for ten years, you still say that it is not an unexpected joy, so that it is enough to marry a few more concubines......"

As soon as I looked at the little old man looking at the slightly beautiful woman on the street, I knew that what he was thinking about was the common disease of men, and it was important to marry ten or eight of his little wives.

When the little old man heard this, he had a sense of knowing, and laughed so much that the thief's eyebrows almost flew to the top of his head, and he just finished it, but sighed and said: "Little old man, I don't have such extravagant hopes, the most important thing is that my son, he is Xiucai, if he gets a half-official position in the imperial examination high school this year, and then marries a daughter-in-law with three surnames and five hopes, I will burn high incense on my ancestors......"

Three surnames and five wangs, I have heard many people mention that it refers to the three extremely prestigious big families of Daqi, the five clans, among which the mother's surname is the most famous, and all the queens of Daqi are almost all born from their mother's surname, which is really the mother's surname, and the other two are slightly worse than the Mingyue clan and the Bo clan, and the three brothers of Mingyuejiang are not from the Mingyue clan, but they are sidelined, and their reputation is not as good as that of the real Mingyue clan, how can Yuejiang be the concubine of the Emperor of Western Chu? How could the people of Daqi let the fertilizer water flow into the fields of outsiders? The five clans are Qi Zhuang Zhu Zu Zhuge These three surnames and five wang are all centuries of the world, and everyone is intertwined in the power of Daqi, so to speak, if you don't have a good relationship with them, you don't even know whether you can sit on the throne or not, so the popularity of the women of several of their families is directly comparable to the champion and runner-up produced during the Miss Hong Kong campaign......

Speaking of which, as the king of a country, the surname Qi is not as famous as the three surnames, and the reputation is high in the hearts of the people, if the general people with official positions can marry a woman within the three surnames as a wife, it is willing to give no matter how much dowry is given, commonly known as the indemnity ceremony, because marrying such a woman means that your family is recognized by these three families and has become a high-class person, otherwise, no matter how big an official you are, if the wife you marry is a woman with a small surname, then basically you don't dare to tell others that you have already married a wife......

I heard these gossips from the hugqin of Qunfang Pavilion, for them, these women with three surnames and five wangs are inviolable goddesses, compared with them, they are different from the mud, I think when I was knocking melon seeds, while listening to them talk about the women with three surnames and five wangs of Daqi with fanatical and envious words, that situation is simply that I would rather be a fire girl under the women of the three surnames and five wangs, rather than be held in the palm of the hands by all men in the Qunfang Pavilion, I said disapprerovitically: "Those women with surnames are really so amazing? They all looked at me with blank eyes, and they forgot that I was their boss, hugging the qin, and foaming at the mouth, regardless of the image, and said sharply: "Of course they are amazing......" was so frightened that I swallowed all the melon seeds and belt meat I was eating, and she looked at me after speaking, as if she suddenly remembered that I was her boss, and said: "Isn't the luckiest thing for a woman to be born in a family of three surnames and five hopes?" ”

Unexpectedly, as soon as I came to Daqi, I was still at the door of Daqi, and I heard someone talking about the children of the family with three surnames and five hopes, or an old man who sold baked cakes?

I nodded admiringly to the old man and said, "I didn't expect you to be so far-sighted, that one hundred taels of silver was originally used as a dowry for my son to marry his daughter-in-law, although it was a small move, but it was also this year's exam, but unfortunately the family was poor, otherwise it would ......."

The little old man listened to me more

"Mr. has not yet married and wants to climb the daughter of the three surnames?" ”

I nodded a little embarrassed: "It's just that I can't get a dowry ......."

The little old man said: "The two of us are so close to each other, seeing that you are a Sven man who reads, and shows you a clear way, do you know how I got this hundred taels of silver?" ”

I shook my head and looked at him with grateful eyes, he felt more comfortable, and he said, "Our prefect's youngest son, Jiang Rongsheng, is it worth being happy to marry his mother's family?" ”

I nodded again and again, the expression on my face only hated myself for not being Jiang Rongsheng, why did he walk like that, shit and good luck?

The little old man looked at my expression and became even more interested in talking: "The prefect is very happy, and he has a big banquet in the mansion, and all the squires and elders with heads and faces have been invited, and the gifts are piled up......"

I asked him in confusion, "Is this what the prefect rewarded you?" ”

The little old man said impatiently, "Young man, be patient and don't interrupt me......"

I guess I'm still impatient? Listen to you ram a lot of nonsense and get to the point?

I hurriedly arched my hand to him and said, "Please say ...... please"

The little old man said: "Although Jiang Rongsheng is married to Miss Jiayi, who is surnamed Fangzhi, this dowry is ......."

I couldn't help but interject again: "It turned out that it was just a side branch of my mother's surname......"

The little old man's face changed, and he said: "What's wrong with the side branches, even the maids who came out of their mansion don't know how many sons are waiting to marry home, besides, the young ladies of the lineage are all queens, concubines, princesses, where will it be the turn of the officials outside......"

I think it's no wonder that the group of women in Qunfang Pavilion would rather be the fire-burning girl ring in the house, and the number of places in this girl ring is limited, and they can't squeeze in?

I hurriedly said: "Isn't it true that I just want to marry a maid from the family with my mother's surname?" But people just don't look down on me, let alone the young lady with my mother's surname......"

The little old man's face turned from gloomy to sunny at this time, and he said with a smile: "It turns out that Mr. and I generally think that the maid with the mother's surname is stronger than the average small family, I don't have the same big ambition as Mr., Bawang can get a mother's surname, as long as it is three surnames and five wangs, I am very happy......

Looking at his appearance, the use of this hundred taels of silver is the most proud thing in his life, and he can't close his eyes if he doesn't talk about it for three days and two nights, so I hurriedly laughed and said: "No, I'm not missing some silver?" I hope you will give me a clear way......"

The little old man patted his head and said: "Look, I'm so happy that I forgot about it, the prefect's youngest son is preparing a dowry to marry his mother, Miss Jiayi, and the other dowries are easy to do, but one of them can stump the prefect." ”

I looked at him with inquisitive eyes and asked, "What is it that is so hard?" Exotic medicinal herbs with precious jewelry? ”

The little old man shook his head and said, "It's not that Miss Mu Jiayi likes to read ancient books and rare books, and her dowry has no other requirements, that is, to ask Governor Jiang to send her a carload of ancient books from her predecessors......"

I thought to myself, this dowry also said that there is nothing else to ask for, a cart of ancient books from predecessors is worth a lot of money.

Hearing this, my itchy little Fuzi suddenly opened his eyes and glanced at me, I understood what he meant, he told me not to have nothing to do, isn't it just a car of broken books? Don't expect me to steal it for you......

I ignored him and asked the little old man with great interest: "So has the prefect made it up?" ”

The little old man said proudly: "Of course, if you get my family, didn't you sell it to the government for a hundred taels of silver?" ”

I asked him curiously, "What book is worth so much money?" ”

The little old man said: "I used to press the sauerkraut jar for a long time, I listened to the call of the government, I thought about it, I tried to take it out, I didn't think of it, and I changed it to a hundred taels of silver all of a sudden, and the book on the cover seems to be written with the words 'ancient rhyme of the piano'......"
