Liu Qingshu came back happily, this is the most right thing he thinks he has done, although it is a little abrupt and a little out of etiquette, but for Liu Qingshu, this is the biggest thing he can do for Liu Fan at present, what if he loses this old face, as long as his children can be happy.

Now that the charter has been decided, Liu Fan will not be able to see Li Jinxi again from now on, and Li Jinxi will obediently stay in the Li Mansion and will not meet again until they get married.

There is such a sentence in "Today's Timely Edict on Urging Marriage and Employment" to urge people of the right age in the Tang Dynasty to get married and have children, "Men are twenty years old, women are more than fifteen years old, and after the wife is mourned, the widow has been removed, and there is no need to apply for matchmaking, and he is destined to be a good match!" ”

But there is a more important sentence in it, "The county order of the assassin has been issued to the officials, if the marriage can be made in time, the widow (guan) is less widowed, and the number of household registrations is increased, so as to enter the examination." If it persuades the multiplier, it loses to the spouse, and the quasi-household is reduced, and the temple is lost. ”

The previous paragraph is to encourage marriage and have children, and the next paragraph is to tell all officials directly and straightforwardly that if marriage is not good under the rule, it will have a direct impact on your personal political career.

After reading this sentence, Li Yifu looked at Liu Fan and said: "Now that I am getting richer, I will find a major problem after I get rich, that is, those old people and children in the original village have begun to reject the scene of marriage leave, even if they want to get married, they can delay it, and they are not willing to settle any longer, which is not a good thing, it will directly affect your future and mine, so please also ask the county man to get married quickly, because your non-marriage has indeed affected many people in the village."

Liu Fan said with a headache: "In other words, my current marriage has become a political task?" ”

Li Yifu and the others nodded in unison, and Liu Renliang scratched his head with a smile and said, "I guess I'm going to get married too!" ”

Everyone asked who it was, but Liu Renliang didn't say it, everyone must be from the village, but now there are really a lot of people in the village who are getting married, and it is difficult to find out.

After all, the Zheng family had an idea, and hurriedly invited a well-known matchmaker from Chang'an City, surnamed Qin Zhaodi, but this Aunt Qin is also a senior person who has been in the industry for many years, and when she heard that Liu Fan, who was a new lord and had countless wealth, was going to get married, she immediately took over the matter happily.

Wanting to get married was an extremely cumbersome thing in the Tang Dynasty, and even Liu Fan listened to one head and two big, and then simply ignored it and left it all to his father to deal with.

This marriage needs to go through five steps, the first step is to take a pick, this is not a bride price, but the matchmaker for the first time to bring four gifts, with the consent of the woman to proceed to the next step, the next step is to ask the name, this is not to ask the name, but to ask the family how the situation is, all have to answer truthfully, and then Najib, that is, the current engagement, you need to invite the ancestral tablet out, to tell the ancestral family that someone in the family is going to marry a daughter-in-law, please the ancestors to bless and witness.

After Najib's marriage, even if it is decided, it cannot be changed easily, so he began to levy, that is, to give a dowry, which is a real gift, and the marriage certificate will also be sent with it.

Liu Fan is writing a marriage book, but Li Yifu wrote it on his behalf, Liu Fan's words are too ugly, so Li Yifu started to write, "Liu Fan is the first man in the Liu family, and he has been established in the year and has not been married." The first daughter of Chengxian, now Shu is heard, has both four virtues, and is willing to marry high reinforcements. I would like to work with the matchmaker Qin, dare to ask for courtesy, if you don't leave it behind, listen to Jia's life. Liu Fanbai. ”

Li Yifu waited until the handwriting was dry, and put it neatly into a small wooden letter, which was to be sent along with the dowry gift, and it must not be lost.

The entire Liufu has been busy with this matter recently, and everyone was so busy that they breathed a sigh of relief after giving the dowry gift.

Zheng is doing the final inspection, the cloth in the bride price is hundreds of forging, and the new cotton quilt is enough to have ten beds, and now the Tang Dynasty, especially Chang'an City, no one knows that this cotton is comparable to gold, and the emperor and empress and many famous generals only have one or two pieces, which is still the clothes that Linjiacun specially took out the inventory to make out.

Li Baiyao, as Liu Fan's future grandfather, naturally also got one, but look at the cotton jacket he was reluctant to wear and the quilt he gave as a dowry now, the number of cotton shares is obviously two levels, and he can only be regarded as a single coat, and this quilt is really enough for the winter, if he takes it out and sells it, he can sell it for hundreds of times, and he will be scolded as a loser.

Pork is no longer the lowest meat in the Tang Dynasty, since Liu Fan invented braised pork, fried meat, small crispy meat, etc., the price of this pork is the same every day, and it has already become the staple part of the meat of the Tang Dynasty today, Liu Qingshu nodded, and directly sent ten pigs, fifty ducks, and one hundred chickens.

This kind of row is also a heavy gift for Datang, a city that has just become rich, not to mention that there are countless gold, silver and jewelry given to Liu Fan by businessmen, all of which were sent by Liu Qingshu.

This made the originally somewhat poor Li Fu directly unable to accept it, and Li Anqi looked at the dowry piled up in a yard and couldn't cry or laugh, "This son-in-law seems to have a little money!" ”

Li Jinxi is ashamed and annoyed, this Liu Fan is very arrogant in doing things, and the family population is already small when he sends so many things, how to put them? I can't eat it in this season, so I have no choice but to sell part of the meat, and marinate or smoke the other meat, which is not the most troublesome, the trouble is those gold, silver and jewelry, Li Anqi is roughly estimated to be worth tens of thousands of yuan, and this kind of major gift money even makes Li Anqi not know how to return the gift.

Li Baiyao still understands that he directly asked Li Anqi to donate all the money to Linjia Village for infrastructure construction, and this money will no longer be private, but an important measure for Li Fu to invest in Linjia Village.

The simple marriage directly alarmed Li Shimin, so after Liu An finished the dowry, Li Shimin ordered the Zhongshu Province to directly introduce the upper limit of the dowry in the future, and it can no longer be so extravagant, if everyone is proud of luxury, then the suffering is ultimately the suffering people of the Tang Dynasty, who will not be able to marry their nephews and brides in the future because of the dowry.

Liu Fan also wrote a letter to ask for guilt, and took out 5,000 yuan to help the orphans in Chang'an City, and took these orphans to Linjia Village for formal training.

Li Shimin naturally agreed, that is, during the period when Liu Fan was busy with his marriage, he began to face up to how much money his family had for the first time, when Zheng opened the family's treasury, Liu Fan's whole eyes widened, and the specific amount of money was not counted, anyway, after giving the dowry and taking out 5,000 yuan, there is still half of the family's money left, according to Zheng's summary, when the cotton can be supplied more next year, the current money will at least be several times higher.
