Chapter 1 Child Brides
"God, there's no such thing as you."
Although it was only a September day, the weather was like this Daqian Dynasty that was about to be in chaos, and it was abnormally violent, and there were already snowflakes fluttering.
Central Qizhou.
Quanzi Village deep in the mountains.
In a dilapidated thatched hut on the edge of the village.
Li Yuanjing leaned against the door and looked at the snow, and had to accept the reality with a wry smile.
He really crossed the ......
is no longer Mr. Li, who everyone in the future will be flattered to see, and the fast son-in-law of the president of a 10 billion listed company, but ...... became this Daqian Dynasty, a lowly and lowly craftsman son......
Li Yuanjing rubbed his temples and sorted out his thoughts with a headache.
The body he crossed was also called Li Yuanjing, as a child of a lowly artisan family, the Li family was not allowed to own land at all, and could only make a living by helping others do work.
Fortunately, Li Yuanjing's father, Li Laoshi, although he is taciturn, his mason work is quite good, and he has a good reputation in the ten miles and eight towns near Quanzi Village.
Although the life of a family of four is still hard, it can always be maintained.
Maybe it's enough to suffer from the lowly status.
Since Li Yuanjing was very young, Li Laoshi sent Li Yuanjing to the county school to study, hoping that Li Yuanjing would one day gain fame, get rid of his lowly status, and get ahead.
Pity.
Li Yuanjing's predecessor was really an elm pimple, he had been reading books for more than ten years, and he was about to reach the age of the crown, but he didn't even get into the show, which was really wrong with Li Laoshi's painstaking training.
What's even more terrifying is ......
The hemp rope is broken in detail, and the fate is hard-working......
Just seven days ago, Li Laoshi and his wife, who went to work in a nearby county town, met robbers on the way back.
Not only was the salary for two months of hard work gone, but his life was not saved......
In the end, although the government sent back the bodies of the poor couple, the family also used up all their savings in order to bury them.
Even.
He also owed the town's big landlord 'Xue Dashanren' four taels of silver.
And Li Yuanjing's predecessor was an unenlightened person, when Zhao Laoshi and his wife were buried the day before yesterday, he had a quarrel with the people sent by Xue Dashan for a trivial matter of a few pennies.
Outcome......
Directly from behind......
This gave Li Yuanjing the opportunity to occupy the magpie's nest at this time.
"Jade Niang~~~."
"My aunt told you all the way, why don't you open your mind? If you are so determined to follow Li Yuanjing's waste disease, how can you live in the future. ”
Just as Hu was thinking about it, there was a sudden sound of someone talking outside, especially mentioning his name, which made Li Yuanjing a clever man.
Seeing that there was a lot of dry firewood at the root of the wall next to him, Li Yuanjing was busy stepping on these dry firewood, his eyes slightly exposed to the wall, and checked the situation outside.
I see—
A middle-aged woman wearing a striking red cotton jacket and a face that seems to be coated with grease powder is pestering a fair little lady with a large pile of dry firewood on her back.
And that fair little lady is not her own child daughter-in-law, which one is it?
"Jade Lady ~~~~"
"Auntie can still hurt you?"
"Think for yourself."
"Originally, Li Yuanjing's sick seedling, it was just a matter of failing the exam, and there was always his father and mother to help him, and he could still live."
"But now, his father and mother are dead, and the autumn tax will be paid soon, and you owe Xue Dashan four taels of money, and the Leng Shan Ma Da is in charge, and he will soon buy the road money."
"Do you think your family can afford to pay at least a dozen taels of silver?"
"Jade Lady ~~~~"
"My aunt is from here, you can listen to my aunt's advice. Now that you have sold yourself and exchanged it for silver, you are the sick man who really loves your family! ”
Seeing that Yu Niang had been unmoved, the woman in the red cotton jacket was busy trotting after Yu Niang and continued to increase the offensive.
Li Yuanjing's face couldn't help but be gloomy.
He had already recognized the identity of the woman in the red cotton jacket, who was Wang Cuihua, the matchmaker of their Quanzi Village!
What do you mean?
He's just woken up, this. The matchmaker of love is going to come over and pry his corner?
This made Li Yuanjing quickly wake up, and his mind was much clearer.
In memory.
The Daqian Dynasty has gone through nearly 300 years, just like an old man whose teeth are about to fall out, he is already dying and dying.
In the middle of the court, traitorous ministers are in charge, and there is a miasma.
Outside, the alien races in the northeast of Liaodong are becoming more and more powerful, and the troubles are continuous, and the grassland aliens in the northwest are also harassing every day.
The weather in the past few years has been extremely abnormal, and the cold is terrible.
The northern part of the Great Qian Dynasty was in great drought for many years, but the south was flooded for many years, and the imperial court continued to increase all kinds of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes in order to pacify the foreign races.
Even the bandits in the nearby mountains have to collect protection money from the common people.
This heavy exploitation and oppression, the world has been full of smoke, and there are faint signs of the end of the world.
In Quanzi Village, it is even more optimistic, and many people have even begun to sell their children and daughters to make ends meet.
"Aunt Wang!"
"Thank you for your kindness, but slaves don't need to."
Li Yuanjing's face was cloudy, but Yu Niang, who was carrying dry firewood that was at least two or three times her size, suddenly stopped.
She said to Wang Cuihua with a tight little face and very seriously:
"Aunt Wang, the slave was raised by his father and mother since he was a child, he was born as a brother, and he was a ghost of his brother when he died! Please go back, the slave and his brother's foreign debts, the slave will find a way to solve it! ”
Saying that, Yu Niang ignored Wang Cuihua and walked towards the door with firm steps.
When she arrived at the door, Yu Niang suddenly pinched the black jade bead that had been hanging on her chest since she was born.
Muttered but firmly:
"Brother, the slave promised his father and mother that he would take care of you. Even if the slave sells this bead, he will definitely pay off those debts! ”
"Hey!"
"You little who doesn't know what to do!"
Wang Cuihua still wanted to chase Yu Niang, but when she saw that Yu Niang had already entered the courtyard, she could only give up.
But then she showed a sneer, and said in a dark voice:
"Little sao hoof, Xue Dashanren's errand for the old lady, can the old lady still let you run? You wait for the old lady! ”
After saying that, she was sassy. Twisting her plump waist affectionately. buttocks, walk briskly down the mountain.
…
"Yikes."
"Brother, you are not well yet, why did you come out on such a cold day?"
In the yard.
Yu Niang couldn't help but be startled when she saw that Li Yuanjing was only wearing a torn sheepskin jacket in a daze.
Hurriedly put the firewood aside, and quickly supported Li Yuanjing:
"Brother, you go to the house to rest first, and then the slave goes to pick up firewood, and I will cook for you immediately......"
Li Yuanjingqiang squeezed out a smile to himself, and was about to speak, but he was suddenly stunned......
Because......
Only then did he really see Yu Niang's little face......
Rao is Li Yuanjing has long been accustomed to seeing beautiful women in later generations, but he is still a little amazed by the little girl Yu Niang.
Yu Niang is only fourteen years old this year, but her small body is already quite beautiful, and her appearance is not picky.
On the round goose egg face, the eyes are like autumn water, the nose is upturned, the ruddy little mouth is almost as delicate as jelly, and the skin is even more white and delicate Frost Race Snow.
There is no roughness like that of an ordinary peasant girl.
This is obviously not the maintenance of various precious cosmetics in later generations, this is a real natural and powerful gene that.
Even if Yu Niang hasn't fully grown up now, I'm afraid it will be enough to kill 99% of the female stars in the future.
Li Yuanjing never thought that his child daughter-in-law would be so beautiful, why didn't there be too much impression in the memory of the original owner?
"Smack."
After a while, Li Yuanjing slapped his head hard, and finally figured out the cause and effect.
Guy Li Yuanjing's predecessor was a critic.
In the years of county schooling, he didn't learn much, and those who read were poor and sour. Love has learned ninety out of nine.
Originally......
This guy has always fantasized about showing talents, lifting people, and then the title of the gold list, and then marrying a famous lady as his wife, and he has never looked at Yu Niang at all......
"Brother, what's wrong with you, but are you not feeling well?"
Seeing Li Yuanjing make such a move, Yu Niang was frightened, she bit her red lips and struggled for a moment, and then said firmly:
"Brother, you wait a while, the slave will go to the town immediately to invite you to Langzhong......"
Seeing that Yu Niang turned around and was about to go to the town more than ten miles away to invite Lang Zhong, Li Yuanjing reacted at this time, and hurriedly grabbed Yu Niang, and said in a somewhat hoarse voice:
"Yu Niang, my brother is fine. What are you running around on such a cold day? What should I do if I freeze my body? ”
Seeing Li Yuanjing's somewhat serious appearance, Yu Niang was a little stunned and looked at Li Yuanjing in surprise.
Brother......
Is this caring for yourself?
Doesn't he hate himself so much?
