Mu Tianming is not short of silver, not to mention the precious salt and white sugar he brought back from the real world. Just talking about the 6,000 tons of grain purchased from the granary of the barbarian army for zero yuan some time ago, it is worth a lot.

According to the current rice market, one tael of silver can buy one stone, that is, one hundred catties. And one ton is two thousand catties, that is, twenty taels.

The 6,000 tons of grain can be sold for 120,000 taels of silver. Moreover, it is not all rice noodles, there are also 500 tons of milk gnocchi and 500 tons of air-dried beef, which are much more expensive than rice noodles. Moreover, the 5,000 tons were not all rice flour, but miscellaneous cakes and other military rations, and the price was more expensive than rice flour.

Mu Tianming exchanged twenty gold ingots from the bank, ten taels each, which was two hundred taels of gold.

The matchmaker took twenty gold ingots as a dowry and went to Zhang's house again.

On the way back, Mu Tianming passed by the "Jinji Tofu Workshop" and went in and sat down.

This tofu shop was opened by a mother and daughter he bought some time ago.

On the second floor.

Mu Tianming took out the eight characters of his birthday and let the woman Jin Zhang watch it.

Jin Zhang's family is known as the ancestral divination technique, looked at the eight characters and muttered: "Official, the old slave pinched his fingers, you want to take a concubine this Miss Zhang, it is a blessing and a curse, but the blessing is greater than the disaster." ”

"How?" Mu Tianming asked.

Jin Zhang said: "This Miss Zhang is naturally charming and has strong desires, if she doesn't have a good body, I'm afraid she won't be able to control it." In the long run, it will damage the qi and blood. This is woe. But when I look at you, you are full of blood and smoke like wolf smoke, and in this regard, you will not be sucked clean by her. You can use the method of poison to fight poison, simply put, if you let go and let her suck, she will be full and lose, and then she will make up for you, and what you lose will be taken back several times. ”

"You talk a little bit more." Mu Tianming said, "What let her go?" ”

Jin Zhang said: "Then I will simply say that after you get married, you can't have sex with Miss Zhang no less than three times a day, so that the number of full moons will be of great benefit to the officials." The premise is that you are in good health, can bear it, and can endure it. ”

"You're hurting me." Mu Tianming said.

"The old slave didn't dare. The official is my mother and daughter's life-saving benefactor, how dare he do harm, and listening to the old slave's words, he will definitely benefit. Jin Zhang said, "Official, let's make it as good as you like." I have a secret technique in the room, you come with your ears, and the old slave will teach you a trick. ”

Kim Chang Shinto said.

Mu Tianming will believe in the doubts.

Jin Zhang bit his ear and whispered that method.

That night, the matchmaker brought back the letter.

The matchmaker said: "The Zhang family didn't agree to this family affair at first, because they didn't want their daughter to marry and be a third concubine. However, the Miss Zhang family came out in person and said that she was willing. said that as long as you treat each other sincerely, it doesn't hurt to be a concubine. I said a lot of good things about the officials, saying that your family is rich and good, and the Zhang family reluctantly agreed. But because they are going to move their families, they want to get married as soon as possible, and the three books and six ceremonies will be waived. ”

Mu Tianming said: "Then tomorrow." ”

When Qiu Fu and Shangguan Rou heard this, they congratulated in unison: "Congratulations to the husband, and the newcomer." ”

Qiu Fu smiled and asked, "Whose young lady won the mercy of her husband?" ”

Shangguan Rou asked: "Is it beautiful or ugly, how old is it?" ”

The matchmaker on the side smiled and said: "It's the young lady of Zhang Xiucai's family in the south of the city, the Zhang family is a scholarly family, the young lady of the Zhang family is well-read, and the appearance talent is the first class, and the two ladies are like fairies." The shepherd's officials enjoy three beautiful concubines, and they are really envious of others. Congratulations. ”

Mu Tianming gave the matchmaker some silver.

The three books and six rites refer to the letter of appointment, the letter of ceremony and the letter of welcome, as well as the six steps of acceptance, asking for names, najib, recruitment, invitation and personal welcome.

But the Zhang family is in a hurry to relocate, and it is just right to be exempted from the number of courtesies.

Mu Tianming himself is in line with the principle of keeping a low profile, so he has no intention of making a big deal.

According to the law of the Dali Dynasty, ordinary men can accept one wife and one concubine, and if there is an official in the body, a total of three wives and concubines can be accepted. A small official like Mu Tianming can accept three people, and the concubines of each rank of officials are different.

According to the provisions of the "Six Classics" of the Dali Dynasty, the number of concubines of the prince was sixteen, the county king and fourteen first-rank officials, twelve second-rank officials, ten third-rank officials, eight fourth-rank officials, six fifth-rank officials, and so on. These concubines are all recognized by the state, and they all have certain names and privileges.

In this regard, the rules of the barbarians are different from those of the dynasty, as long as the man is an adult, there is no limit to the number of wives and concubines on the barbarian side, and it is all up to personal will. This is why many barbarian soldiers fought bravely, because once they conquered the territory, they could be divided into many slaves, and the men could be sent to work in the mines or farms, and the women would be taken as female slaves if they were young.

Based on this, the soldiers of the dynasty also had a stronger will to defend their families and the country, because no one wanted their relatives to fall into that kind of fate.

That night, Qiu Fu and Shangguan Rou carefully decorated the home, especially the new house.

In terms of household goods, Mu Tianming was not stingy, and took out 800 taels of silver to buy some new screens, couplets, paintings, antiques, bonsai, carpets, tapestries, door curtains, curtains, quilts, mattresses and other decorative fabrics. I also bought eight Persian wool carpets at a good price. In this way, it is spread on the ground, and there is an ancient floor heating such as a fire wall underground, so it will not be cold even if you roll from the bed to the ground in winter.

Qiu Fu said in a good mood: "Rou'er, I finally came to be younger than you and let you bully." ”

Shangguan Ju said: "Our family doesn't like to bully people." If you want to bully people, only Daddy himself can bully people. ”

Qiu Fu said: "The husband is dignified, where will he bully people." ”

Mu Tianming said: "Qiu Fu, Dao Sanctimony is not used like this, you should read more." ”

Shangguan Ju said: "Daddy, I went to pick up Sister Fu, you go and bully her." ”

Mu Tianming stretched: "You two make trouble, let's go to the study to read." ”

didn't wait for Mu Tianming to walk out of the room, but was stopped by Qiu Fu and pulled back.

I only heard her sneer: "Read and read, count the nine cold days and cold winter nights, what books to read?" ”

Shangguan Rou said helpfully: "That's it, isn't Sister Fu's quilt warm." ”

Mu Tianming said coldly in his heart This is a pill, these two people are eating marrow and knowing the taste and starting to play Laipi together, and it is not the shy little cat at the beginning.

Outside the window, the north wind is howling, and the wind and snow are intertwined.

The candle flame in the house is warm and warm. The bed board is shaking.

Day 2.

It is the ninth day of the third month of the seventeenth year of the first year of the Great Departure Dynasty, and it is suitable for marriage and planting.

On this day, Mu Tianming sowed the seed of a tree in the courtyard, which he bought from a blind Taoist in the market. I don't know what kind of tree it is, but it is said that it can bring good luck to people and make the family prosperous.

Qiu Fu and Shangguan both changed into new clothes, and the two looked more excited than the groom.

At dusk, two palanquin bearers in green clothes and small hats carried the bride with a small palanquin, accompanied by several loads of dowry.

According to the laws of the dynasty, concubines do not need to worship heaven and earth and other ceremonies, just set up a banquet.

Qiu Fu saw the bride coming alone in a sedan chair, so she asked, "This sister, are you here by yourself?" What about your mother's family? ”

The bride wore a pink dress, covered her head, and replied softly: "Parents don't want Wan'er to marry as a concubine, and they won't be angry with Wan'er." ”

Qiu Fu said: "It doesn't matter, we will all be my sister's family in the future." ”

"Yes." Shangguan Rou also said, "We have prepared the wine and food, it is very rich." Hey, where's Daddy? ”

The other side.

Mu Tianming was in the study, opened a few dowries placed here, and saw two blue and white porcelain ancient vases at a glance.

So he picked it up and leaned in, and found an old yellow book in an ancient bottle.

I saw that the seal script of the ancient times was written on it, and the two majestic words "Guanhu" were written.
