Volume III Chapter 18 Marriage Proposal
When Luo Changfeng returned home, Qingmu and Ah Qing hurriedly stepped forward to ask how things were.
Luo Changfeng said that King Yue should be rewarded one by one, Qing's mother was overjoyed, but Ah Qing counted it with her fingers there, "I remember, a pound of gold is worth 1,500 yuan, a hundred catties, that's ......"
Ah Qing gasped and said, "150,000 yuan, oh my God, how much grain and cloth can you buy!"
Looking at Ah Qing's startled and cute appearance, Luo Changfeng's heart was hot, and he suddenly said to Qing's mother: "Madam, Doctor Fan told me something today. β
Seeing Luo Changfeng's solemn expression, Qingmu hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?"
Luo Changfeng glanced at Ah Qing, who was looking at him curiously, and said, "Doctor Fan said that I have a law that men must marry at twenty and women at seventeen, otherwise their parents will be guilty and will be arrested for hard labor." β
"I'm just nineteen this year, so it's okay, but A-Qing ...... She only had three months left to turn seventeen, so ......"
When Luo Changfeng said this, he took a step back with his right leg, knelt on one knee, and said with a fist: "Please ask Mrs. to marry A-Qing to me." β
"Ah......h
Even if she is simple, she also understands what Luo Changfeng means by this move, although she is willing in her heart, but the girl is thin after all, how can she stand this scene of asking for marriage in person?
Qing's mother looked at Luo Changfeng with a smile and said, "You, you have lived in my house for more than half a year, and the neighbors have already recognized that you are Ah Qing's fiancΓ©, Ah Qing is not allowed to marry you, who can you be married to?"
Luo Changfeng was overjoyed when he heard this, and finally knelt down on his other leg, and bowed: "Thank you, Mrs. for your success." β
"Huh, still called Madame?"
Luo Changfeng instantly understood, and said happily: "My son-in-law meets my mother-in-law." β
......
With the approval of Qing's mother, Luo Changfeng and A Qing's marriage was decided, but getting married in the Spring and Autumn Period was not so simple, unlike later generations, calling all relatives and friends together and holding a banquet was completed.
Spring and Autumn fashion follows the Zhou rites, and the process is cumbersome and the procedures are complicated, which simply makes Luo Changfeng one head and two big.
Fortunately, at present, he and Ah Qing have only made a marriage contract, and the date of marriage is three months later, the day of Ah Qing's seventeenth birthday, there is enough time to do it.
As for the wedding, Luo Changfeng, who didn't know anything about it, had to entrust it to Fan Li, and this matter basically only needs Fan Li and Qingmu to communicate.
Luo Changfeng's general's mansion has a ready-made house, you only need to add a set of utensils to move in, the location is not far from the Yue Palace, very close to the camp of the Yue swordsman.
And Luo Changfeng's official seals, official uniforms, regular clothes, swords and other items were all prepared within three days, and the servants and maids of the general's mansion, Fan Li, were also all arranged.
Three days later, Luo Changfeng officially moved into the General's Mansion, but Ah Qing and Qingmu did not move over for the time being, because after Luo Changfeng and Ah Qing got married, Qing's mother would move to the General's Mansion and live with Luo Changfeng and Aqing.
However, with a large amount of money given by Luo Changfeng, the mother and daughter have no worries about their lives, and after the grain in the field is recovered, the mother and daughter will no longer farm, and the green mother will no longer sew clothes for others.
Luo Changfeng went to the swordsman camp to show his face, naturally, it is also essential to show off his muscles, and after revealing a little swordsmanship, Luo Changfeng easily convinced more than 5,000 swordsmen of the Yue Kingdom.
Immediately, Luo Changfeng selected fifty swordsmen, passed them on by him, and when these fifty swordsmen learned the swordsmanship of the ape, they taught all the swordsmanship.
These fifty swordsmen lived in Luo Changfeng's General's Mansion, which was not only convenient for him to take them out of the city for practice on weekdays, but also served as a guard for the General's Mansion.
Of course, there is a team of guards in the General's Mansion itself, and the main task of these fifty swordsmen is to learn swords from Luo Changfeng.
On the sixth day of staying in the General's Mansion, Luo Changfeng's teaching officially began, and as soon as the sky was bright, Luo Changfeng gathered fifty swordsmen and took them to run to the western suburbs outside the city.
There are four or five miles of land from here to where A-Qing usually grazes sheep, just enough for the swordsmen to warm up.
When I arrived in the western suburbs, I saw that in a relatively flat place, a field had been enclosed with cloth, and a large tent was set up in the field, which was used as a place for Luo Changfeng to rest on weekdays.
Outside the venue, there is another tent area, which is the resting place of the Yue soldiers who guard the site.
Gou Jian attached great importance to Luo Changfeng's sword transmission, and it was also to avoid being spied on, so he sent a thousand armor soldiers to guard this place, and his own fire army was responsible for the daily meals.
"General Luo. β
The two armor soldiers at the entrance of the sword training ground saluted Luo Changfeng respectfully, Luo Changfeng nodded to them, and then entered the sword training ground with fifty swordsmen.
To Luo Changfeng's surprise, Fan Li was also present, he was practicing his sword, Xu heard the greeting of the armorer, he put away his sword and got up, and looked at Luo Changfeng with a smile.
Luo Changfeng said in surprise: "Doctor Fan, you have a lot of opportunities, how can you have time to come here?"
Fan Li said with a smile: "Recently, everything has been sorted out, the top priority of the Yue country is to train the army, as long as I have the art of the sword, halberd, bow and arrow, all of which are excellent, and the day of breaking Wu can be expected." β
Luo Changfeng nodded slightly, and said, "It's a pity that the last general is only good at swordsmanship, and he can't master the art of bows and arrows." β
Fan Li said with a smile: "Changfeng doesn't need to worry, I have found a good shooter, named Chen Yin, originally from the Chu country, because of killing people to avoid revenge in Yue, hidden as a hunter." β
Now the king has hired him as an archer, teaching crossbowmen in the northern suburbs, and he has also contributed the method of repeating crossbows, which can shoot three arrows in a row. β
Luo Changfeng said happily when he heard this: "This is exactly God bless me to cross the country." β
Fan Li said yes again and again, and then said: "Changfeng, there has been nothing to do recently, so I will also practice with you, how about it?"
"Why not? Doctor Fan can look at my swordsmanship, which is Changfeng's honor. After Luo Changfeng and Fan Li exchanged a few polite words, they ordered the swordsmen to disperse in a way that was spaced one foot apart from the front and back, left and right.
Fan Li stood in front of the swordsmen by himself, Luo Changfeng pulled out his sword and walked onto the two-foot-high platform, he stood taller, and the swordsmen could see more clearly.
After glancing from left to right, Luo Changfeng said in a deep voice: "My sword technique, called 'Ape Gong Sword Technique', needs to be memorized. β
Everyone pricked up their ears and listened attentively, only to hear Luo Changfeng say slowly: "Ape Gong swordsmanship, inner spirit, external comfort, see it like a good woman, take it like a tiger." β
"The cloth is waiting for the air, going with the gods, like a spirit ape, chasing the form and shadow, vertical and horizontal, out of sight, those who have my way, one person can be a hundred, and a hundred people can be ten thousand. β
"Even if you can't get a full glimpse of my path, as long as you practice diligently, within two or three years, you can become ten of them. β
When the swordsmen heard Luo Changfeng's words, they were all excited and excited, and Luo Changfeng didn't talk nonsense, and after saying the core tips, he began to demonstrate the first style.
"The first type, the name of the heart ape is the horse, there are two ways of virtual and real, each with three moves, optimistic about the ......"
