Chapter 253: Mother and Son Have Their Own Favors
Therefore, Liu Wan moved the idea of inviting herself to the archway of chastity, and also took a ride on Wang Xiao's report on the deeds of fighting tigers.
I didn't expect the emperor Lao'er to take it seriously and really grant her request.
But anyway, she had to stick to her own ideas, and be determined to be a widow with freedom and human rights entirely to herself at this time.
So it's also a good thing to have this protective color.
Liu Wan calmed down a little, seeing that Wang Lizheng was excited, and almost didn't offer her up, Liu Wan said solemnly:
"Understood. Is there anything I need to pay attention to if I receive the order tomorrow? ”
Liu Wan thought to herself that she didn't know how to bow down yet, I heard that there were many sets of procedures, of course, she had gained experience from watching film and television dramas before, and the history books in the school only talked about major events, not about these red tape.
It's okay, we countrymen don't pay so much attention, you just need to change into clean clothes, clean your hands, burn incense, and receive orders.
I'll help you with some of the things to do. “
Wang Li is right.
Wang Lizheng understands this, and there should be a servant who sent him a message, otherwise how could Wang Lizheng know this?
In his life, he didn't even see the documents of the county magistrate, let alone the emperor's holy decree, so it's no wonder that his blood is boiling.
Cai, who came with Wang Lizheng, saw that Liu Wan was not shocked, but felt that Aunt Liu was a little pity.
Although she gave birth to 5 children, she is white and beautiful, with a melon seed face, clear eyebrows and eyes, and her waist and chest are as tight as a girl's house.
But now that there is a chastity archway, it is impossible for her to marry again in this life, which is a pity.
Fortunately, Aunt Liu seems to have been prepared, and there is no embarrassment between her eyebrows.
Cai could only sigh in his heart.
Only women understand women.
Liu Wan saw Cai's sympathetic gaze, but grinned at Cai's.
At this time, Wang Lizheng said again:
"In addition to this, there is another happy event."
"What?" Liu Wanleng paused, and didn't react for a while.
"Didn't Wang Xiao capture a tiger alive? When the emperor heard about this, Long Yan was overjoyed and gave him the title of 'Tiger Fighting Hero'. ”
Liu Wan didn't expect that this emperor was really interesting, and he actually gave their mother and son their own "favors".
All in all, it must be a good thing to be rewarded by the emperor and have the ministers come down to read the holy decree.
With these two golden signboards, the value of their mother and son has risen sharply, and they no longer have to be afraid of being bullied by rural ruffians.
Liu Wanden was happy.
Wang Xiao listened to it on the side, and he was also stunned, he intuitively felt that the title of the tiger hero should not be given to him, it should be given to Xie Tietou, Wang Jing, or Wang Li who lured the tiger with his body is the right reason.
However, he was about to say something, Liu Wan seemed to catch a glimpse of his thoughts, and secretly stepped on his foot, as if hinting to him not to speak.
Wang Xiao had no choice but to shut up.
Liu Wan thanked Wang Lizheng for her kind words.
Wang Lizheng just did a favor, and accepted it happily, and then said that time waits for no one, he will now call a group of clan relatives to help Liu Wan arrange it here, so that the Lord Qincha has arrived, and the reception is not good.
Liu Wan naturally would not refuse.
Tomorrow the Qin Cha will come to announce the decree, and if you don't prepare now, it will be too late tomorrow morning.
Wang Li was going to call someone, and Cai stayed behind to talk to her.
Liu Wan took the opportunity to ask the Cai family to help Wang Jing be a matchmaker.
Cai smiled: "Your father told me a few days ago, and I promised him at that time.
This is a good thing, it is not easy for you to support this family as a woman. ”
"Yes, we want to hurry up and propose marriage, settle this matter, and then get married, and we can do family affairs within 100 days." Liu Wan said.
Wang Dazhi died, not more than 100 days, according to the rules of the dynasty, after the death of the closest relatives, you have to keep filial piety for three years, and you can't do happy events. But if it can be completed within 100 days, happy events are still allowed.
Therefore, many people will hurry up to handle the relatives of the juniors within 100 days of the death of the elders.
Liu Wan also learned about this rule recently, so of course she wanted to hurry up and handle Wang Jing's family affairs.
When she first arrived, she did not approve of early marriage, but after living here for a while, she understood why people now marry early.
Nowadays, due to backward medical care and poor living conditions, the average survival age of people here is about 55 years old.
Therefore, many people are called uncles when they are forty, and they are old people when they are fifty, and even many people pass away before the age of 50.
Therefore, Liu Wan now feels that it is not too early to get married at the age of 17, and she is not so resistant to Wang Jing's marriage.
So, Liu Wan made an appointment with Cai's and went to propose marriage to Xie Tietou the morning after tomorrow.
Liu Wan was very happy, she found that she had more and more friends in this world, although it was not necessarily a deep friendship, but at least someone was willing to help her, which made her feel the kindness of this world.
This incident disrupted Liu Wan's rhythm of life, and she didn't have time to teach the children tonight and let them review by themselves, so she had to prepare the incense case she needed tomorrow and the silver for red envelopes.
Although it is a small farmer, the Chincha Lady came in person, and it must have been indispensable for the transportation and horse expenses.
Liu Wan watched the previous palace fighting dramas, and always felt that the people from the palace were very troublesome if they didn't give some real money.
She asked Wang Xiao to prepare a few silver tickets of 20 taels of silver, as well as a number of silver tickets of 10 taels of silver.
This amount of money, the officials from the capital must not be able to see it, but whether they give it or not represents a heart, and it feels different.
When Wang Xiao heard that it would cost money, he was quite entangled and said:
"Mother, people are big officials, can you afford this money?"
Liu Wan said with a smile: "People are dusty, they are tired from the capital, and they are working hard for our business, don't we need to express it to others?" It doesn't matter how much, it's etiquette. ”
Hearing Liu Wan say this, Wang Xiao understood, and didn't say anything more.
Liu Wan can only teach little by little, no way, the children have never seen the world, and they don't know the world, but fortunately she is an "old" person in the workplace, and it is not a problem to deal with these people.
Wang Lizheng suddenly called out more than 20 people, all of whom were relatives of the Wang family, and Wang Laohan naturally brought a few children and grandchildren to help.
This kind of major event, if Wang Laohan's family does not come, it will not be easy to gain a foothold in the village. What's more, Liu Wan still has to keep a festival for his son.
For a while, these people began to build pergolas, move tables and chairs, set incense tables, and arrange venues, but Liu Wan had nothing to do.
Liu Wan simply made some snacks and prepared to entertain Lord Qincha and his party tomorrow.
Qin Cha sounds quite scary, but after all, he is a person, and he has to eat it, Liu Wan doesn't believe that he doesn't like delicious food.
