Chapter 2 Wouldn't it, so unlucky?
After dinner, the unlucky Ji Que sat in the house with Erlang's legs crossed, enjoying a rare peace.
After that, he rummaged through the cabinet and pulled out an unpretentious gray package.
The package was carefully opened, and inside was half a moldy biscuit, and a letter.
The letter paper is plastered with red clay and is a standard marriage contract letter.
This is where Ji Que feels the most troublesome.
Ji Que's late grandfather was a seller of baked cakes when he was alive, and there was a famine that year, and one person was about to starve to death, so he gave the other party a baked cake.
The man survived by this, and later became prosperous, so he gave Old Man Ji half a piece of baked cake and made a marriage contract.
That is, when Ji Que is seventeen years old, he will go to the Bai Mansion in Tianren City to complete the agreement with Miss Bai of the Bai family.
And this year, Ji Que is just seventeen years old.
In this dynasty, which is similar to the ancient Tang Dynasty and is called the "Sheng Dynasty", the marriage contract is quite important.
Inexplicably, Ji Que has an extra fiancée.
Don't have a car or a house, don't look at the level of occupation, don't even need a bride price, just rely on half a moldy baked cake and a letter, you can get a wife who should be everyone's best friend.
For this kind of thing, except for the initial freshness and a little excitement, the rest of the single dogs in the two lives are all confused.
It stands to reason that the white girl in the marriage contract should be a lady, but he doesn't know what the other party is tall, short, fat and thin, with big breasts, not long legs, and temperament, and people like him are destined not to get married so early.
It is said that Tianren City is very prosperous, and it is the most prosperous city in the north.
That is the same, it also represents more shit, flying bricks, pickpockets, strongmen, gang people, officials who are darker than gangs, and so on.
If he really marries the white girl, the white girl will face a husband who often steps on dog shit, throws money, is robbed, killed, hit by horses, and chased by tigers.
I'm afraid the white girl will go crazy, right?
Therefore, for the happiness of himself and Miss Bai Jia, the kind-hearted Ji Que probably wanted to quit this marriage that was not in the right household.
The marriage was decided without even meeting each other, and the ancient people were really reckless.
But even if you go to get out of the marriage, it's a troublesome thing.
Sangshui County is thousands of miles away from Tianren City, even if it is not delayed, it will take ten days and a half months.
The key is entanglement.
If it weren't for the bounties he earned in the next few months, Ji Que would still be worried about entanglement.
In the last life, Ji Que's biggest dream was to be able to travel and live around after wealth and freedom.
His favorite travel is not to go to the attractions to check in, but to stay in a favorite place for a few years, stay bored, and then go to another place to see another scenery.
At that time, the ideal was very plump, but the reality was very skinny.
Not to mention wealth freedom, he had just emptied his wallet and took out a mortgage, but he encountered a financial crisis and unemployment, regained his illness, and almost became depressed.
Later, he was unfortunately involved in a car accident.
At the moment when the truck hit him, Ji Que only felt that the past was flowing through his mind like water, and one of them was particularly clear.
That's when he found out that he had never come close to the life of his dreams.
So when he was trucked into this world, he always remembered this dream.
If you have money, you can travel everywhere, go to a place to see the scenery of a place, eat the food of a place, live the life of a place, and then leave and go to the next stop.
And Tianren City happened to be the next stop in his plan.
His plan is to find a place to live in Tianren City after he divorces and see what kind of fireworks are in this prosperous city in the north.
However, it is said that everything in Tianren City is expensive, and his little savings are probably not enough.
So in general, the lack of season is the lack of silver.
Ji Que summed up that during the time when his understanding first began to accumulate, he only stepped on often, and this stage can be called the "stepping on stage".
And after the "-stepping stage", he will step on while inexplicably throwing silver, and the silver he carries on his body will fall from time to time, and the silver hidden at home will also be stolen.
He once buried ten taels of silver more than a meter under the green bricks of the house, but the silver was still lost, because there was a huge mouse hole next to it.
Others are picking up silver for nothing to listen to music, and he is inexplicably throwing silver.
This made Ji Que very depressed.
Fortunately, at this stage, pickpockets and thieves fall into his hands from time to time, and he can gain a little from them to break even.
Ji Que called this stage "the stage of dedication to protecting money", because as long as he works hard to squeeze thieves and pickpockets, his assets will always tend to break even.
After this stage, dangerous incidents will continue to appear, such as robbery, murder, horseback killing, and encountering tigers.
At this time, Ji Que's life is in danger, but it is also the most profitable.
Most of the robbers who robbed him and killed him were bandits, who already had silver on them, plus the bounty in the yamen, and he also made some money from it.
At this stage, Ji Que called it "the stage of making money with his life".
Now the season shortage is at this stage.
He summed it up, today he first stepped on dog poop four times in a row, and after paying careful attention to his feet, he was hit by bird poop twice, and narrowly avoided flying objects such as bamboo poles and bricks falling from above three times, and just stepped on shit in the afternoon, he encountered someone beating him again......
Compared with the previous days, the frequency of this bad luck is significantly higher.
It can't be helped, this is the price of accumulating understanding and earning money.
Ji Que felt that he could still bear it, after all, the more entanglements the better, and then he could live comfortably in Tianren City.
After that, he began his day's workout.
He did a hundred push-ups on his stomach, then a hundred push-ups, and then a hundred squats......
On the surface, Ji Que is a scholar who looks like a Sven, but in fact, his body is full of strong muscles.
This is one of the reasons why he has been able to carry the bad luck blow for so long.
Of course, bad luck is not endless, judging by Ji Quan's experience, he has poured so many times during the day, and he will generally be at peace at night.
At this moment, a gust of wind blew the carved window open.
The candle flame on the table swayed from side to side, reflecting the shadows of the trees on the ground like hideous ghosts.
Ji Que hurriedly walked over to close the window, but was suddenly stunned.
A small sound came from the water tank outside the house, like a big fish swimming inside.
But he never kept fish.
Ji Que, who is in bad luck, naturally doesn't think that it is a snail girl who repays her kindness.
"Wouldn't it, so unlucky?"
Ji Que quietly put the scissors, hammers, bricks, red ropes and other tools on the table back to their places, held the hammer, and quietly leaned over.
