Thinking of the special meaning of the strange fishing word made me tremble, and Chen Bamiao sighed helplessly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

In this regard, I thought back to the judgment in my mind and the vicissitudes of life, and opened my mouth to ask Chen Bamiao: "It seems that ...... Is this true? Your Chen family and Xiao Yuge are from the 'Jiangzhou prostitutes' among the 'nine fishermen' on the Fuchun River?!"

Chen Bamiao nodded, embarrassed.

At this point, I confirmed my judgment.

Nine fishermen, this is what I know, the most miserable kind of fishermen since ancient times, these fishermen have a total of "Chen, Qian, Lin, Li, Yuan, Sun, Ye, He, Xu" nine surnames, passed down from generation to generation.

Since the Yuan and Ming dynasties, they have been appointed as lifelong "untouchables" by the imperial court, and they cannot be buried in the earth, they can not go out of the boat, they cannot go ashore to build houses, they cannot enter the mountains and land, and they cannot intermarry with the people on the shore.

In short, they do not have any right to survive on land, or even to beg.

There are many explanations for why the fishermen with the surname Nine are denounced as such lowly pariahs, and there are two kinds of generally credible ones, one is that these people were formed at the end of the Song Dynasty, after the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty, some scholars and doctors who did not forget their homeland lived in seclusion in the Fuchun River, and wandered all their lives to imitate the allusions of Boyi and Shuqi, in order to express that they would not practice the Yuan land and swear not to surrender.

The other is that these people were formed in the Ming Dynasty and were the remnants of Chen Youliang's old department at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, because Chen Youliang was loyal to his old master after the defeat of Zhu Yuanzhang, so he was not allowed to go ashore for life, in order to show that he would never give in and would not be a minister of the Ming Dynasty.

But no matter which way it is explained, in short, 90% of their lives are spent on the boat, except for the boat, they are adrift, and they are even called "water vagabonds".

In fact, I know in my heart that in the old society, comparing them with the homeless was really lifting, because the homeless and beggars still have the right to walk on the land, and the nine fishermen are ...... No!

Locked on the water, and with all kinds of oppression in the imperial court society, the survival of the nine fishermen can be imagined. It is difficult to feed the descendants of the nine surnames only by relying on the gift of Fuchun River water, so in the following years, the nine surnames who have been fishing for a living have gradually become two factions.

One group still fishes for a living, and is called "fisherman", and the other type gradually starts a water business according to the benefits of the boat, and becomes a chicken woman's family, known as "Jiangzhou prostitute".

And how can customers in need distinguish between a fisherman who does serious business and a "prostitute on the river" who does business in Fengyue? It is said that this trick lies on the door plaque of the boat.

In ancient times, fishermen had three points of water in the word for fishing, because fishing boats had three uses, first, to live people, second, to fish, and third, to carry goods. But because "Jiangshang prostitutes" have a fourth "trick ||". prostitution", so it was added a little more water by those prostitutes.

In this way, the fishing word of the fishing boat has become "four points of water".

And this is the true meaning of the plaque of the laughing fisherman.

Because of that plaque, I could see that the Chen sisters were from Fuchunjiang, and because of that plaque, I guessed that Chen Bamiao was born from a fisherman with the surname of Jiu.

In modern society, the discrimination against fishermen with the surname Nine has long disappeared, but I can see that the Chen sisters still retain the deep memories of that time. For those of us who are "on land", there is an instinctive wariness.

This may be the reason why they recruit sons-in-law and have to get rich.

Besides, I have also heard that in ancient times, if you wanted to marry a woman from a fisherman family with nine surnames, it was impossible unless you became rich and gave up your rights on land.

...... Knowing this, I also have a little understanding and ...... of Rui Mujun's behavior Sympathize.

So, I nodded and said, "I understand! Nine fishermen, there are only three women in charge, you sisters, it's really not easy." ”

After listening to my confidant's words, Chen Bamiao nodded gratefully and said, "Mr. Huo, you are a good person and a smart person, so you must know how many talented and willing men are there in a family like us?"

"So......" I said helplessly, "your head of the family has taken a fancy to me?"

"My sister said, you are a phoenix, but you haven't flown yet, and what we fancy is ......" Chen Bamiao stretched out her slender hand, pointed at my spirit rhino and said, "Your future future and ability of Boss Huo." ”

I...... What the future holds?!

"......" I didn't know what to reply to at all, and then I decided to use the "Dafa of Changing the Subject" to change the atmosphere.

"That's right!" I said suddenly: "I remember that your Chen family is the third sister, right? Why did I only see your eldest sister and you, that little Jiu'er of your family?!

As soon as Chen Bamiao heard me mention the name "Xiao Jiu'er", her body shook violently, and even her face turned pale.

Then, she hurriedly shook her hand and said, "This ...... My sister is dead, dead...... It's been two years. ”

I was speechless, knowing that I had said the wrong thing.

In my muttering silence, Chen Bamiao was very generous, she waved her hand and said it didn't matter, she was not as taboo and didn't want to say it as her eldest sister, and she saw that I didn't want to, but she would still wait for me for three years as agreed, and she also said that after three years...... Maybe I'll rush to beg her to slam the door.

When it was over, the little woman paused, and finally spoke: "Boss Huo, in fact, I am very grateful to you, I thank you for saving the ...... for me Rui Mujun's face. ”

Rui Mujun's three words, it seems that they take them very seriously.

The Chen sisters value me so much, it stands to reason that we should be happy, but what I think of is Meizi, my ill-fated girl.

In the chaos, I followed Chen Bamiao's steps and returned to the room where Hui Siqi and Zhao Haipeng were waiting step by step.

When I entered the house, I saw the two of them sitting around the tray of three 12 treasures, chatting and eating tea.

The three lamps and twelve treasures are the abbreviated situation of "four candied fruits, four fruit plates, and four dim sums" in the four or four seats of Ludi, and it will not be too bad to eat, but I looked at Hui Siqi and Zhao Haipeng, but found that their expressions were with a trace of forbearance and nervousness.

I understand that it is not so much that they are eating, but that they are waiting, waiting for my news, and that it is a bitter wait.

Seeing that Chen Bamiao came back with me, the two of them stood up with a "Teng", and then asked me in unison, "How is it?!"

Looking at these two, I felt a sense of joy when I saw the PLA, and the sweat on my head was completely released, and I felt even more relieved.

I nodded, and then said to the second girl, "Ship Master Chen has agreed to our request!"

Of course, in fact, I still want to say: I also sold myself by the way. (To be continued.) )
