Volume III Customs

But soon, Mingxuan realized that she had made a big mistake! Qiu Qian'er didn't know anything about Zhongzhou at all! It was completely like a blank sheet of paper! Except for being able to speak Zhongzhou dialect and know Zhongzhou characters, she didn't know anything else, she didn't know how to buy and sell with people, she didn't know how to deal with people, and she didn't even know how to wear Zhongzhou clothes! It was far worse than when Mingxuan first came out of Huoyun Mountain.

But there is no way, since Ming Xuan agreed to her, she can only be a good person to the end.

"In Zhongzhou, money is used by everyone to measure the value of buying and selling things, the value of things is directly reflected in the amount of money, and selling things to get money; buy things to spend money, as for money, it is also divided into many kinds, those in your cloth bag are called copper plates, is the smallest denomination of money, are counted one by one, one is a penny; if a thousand of them are strung together with a rope, it becomes a hanging money, and a hanging money can be worth a tael of silver, and ten taels of silver can be worth a tael of gold, because if the money is too inconvenient, you can go to the money bank to exchange for silver tickets, all kinds of denominations are not equal, can also be used as money, so do you understand? Ming Xuan patiently explained to her, and as he spoke, he put the money on the table for her to compare.

"Oh, it turns out that money still has so much knowledge!" Qiu Qian'er seemed to understand a little.

"Well, it's nothing if you understand, now you should know the value of your cloth bag money!" Mingxuan asked herself how she could understand after she spoke so carefully.

"Well, I still don't understand!" Qiu Qian'er shook her head after thinking about it, and returned to a blank face.

"I ......" Mingxuan was speechless.

......

"This one is called a comb, which is used to comb hair, this one is called a mirror, which is used to take care of it, and this one is ......" No way, Mingxuan gave up the stupid idea of achieving it overnight, and had to start teaching from the most basic, so he simply started teaching from the things commonly used around him, if she understood it, then jump over, if she didn't understand, explain it to her in detail, and it could only be done step by step.

Although Ming Xuan taught very carefully and in detail, Qiu Qian'er was obviously not a good student, and she was still very curious about what she didn't understand at the beginning, but after a long time, she didn't have much interest, and even began to yawn and get up all the time, seeing that Ming Xuan's face was full of black lines, and if this continued, he doubted whether he could complete the task in his lifetime.

"Why don't we rest for a while! Qiu Qian'er stretched and said.

"You can't bear it for how long you've been taught, so when do I have to teach you?" Ming Xuan was speechless, his plan to walk the rivers and lakes couldn't let her be delayed like this.

"I'm not from Zhongzhou, and I didn't grow up in Zhongzhou, where do I remember so much at once!" Qiu Qian'er shouted unconvinced.

"Okay, count me unlucky, you better follow me, I'll teach you as I go!" Ming Xuan had to say helplessly, now he could only wait to think of a suitable way to place her.

Although there was more Qiu Qian'er, Mingxuan's plan remained unchanged, he prepared gifts to visit Liang Dayi, and began to go to Liang Dayi's house.

......

"Oh! It's Mingxuan! Why are you free to come here today, come on, come on! Come in and sit! Xiu'er! Xiu'er! Mingxuan is here!" It was Liang Dayi's mother who opened the door, and when she saw that it was Mingxuan, she immediately smiled from ear to ear, Mingxuan has come to Liang Dayi's house for the New Year in the past few years, and he is also very familiar with his family.

Because Mingxuan not only helped their family win the competition and recruit relatives, so that the lovers could eventually become dependents, but also took out a large handful of silver tickets to Liang Dayi's business capital, which gave them a prosperous rì, so they have always been grateful to Mingxuan.

"Mingxuan is here!Come in and sit!" Xiu'er walked out with a big belly on her waist, and she was very happy to see that it was Mingxuan.

"Hello sister-in-law, you are pregnant, sit down, where is the senior brother?" Mingxuan hurriedly entered the room and asked Xiu'er to sit down.

"Dayi is doing business outside now, and he is a little too busy, and even his younger brothers and sisters have gone to help, how can he have time to accompany me! This is ......" Wang Xiu'er said with a smile, seeing Qiu Qian'er with a curious face.

"Oh, this is a friend I met on the road named Qiu Qian'er, sister-in-law, aren't you going to give birth soon? Senior brother has to take the time to come back and accompany you well! The next time I see him, I have to talk about him!" Ming Xuan put down the gift in his hand and said dissatisfiedly, no matter how important business is, no family is as important as family.

"He's doing business in Yucheng now, it's thousands of miles away from here, and it's not easy to come back! I still have two months to give birth, and he'll be back next month, but you won't see him this time." Xiu'er said with some regret, Ming Xuan naturally came to find Liang Dayi.

"That's okay, in fact, I don't have anything to do, it's just that I'm going to leave Qingyangmen to go to the rivers and lakes to practice, and it may take a long time to come back, so I want to say goodbye to the senior brother. Ming Xuan didn't think there was anything, they knew, and Liang Dayi naturally knew.

"Ah, I see! Why don't I write a letter and ask them to send it over, so that Dayi can rush back! Let you brothers and sisters get together. As soon as she heard that Mingxuan was going to travel far away, it might be three years and five years, and Xiu'er was also a little anxious.

"This is not necessary, it's a big deal that I'll go to Yucheng to see Senior Brother, anyway, I don't have a plan to go! "Mingxuan doesn't care, but he doesn't let Xiu'er worry too much.

"That's okay, you see that you bring so many things every time you come, and you help us so much, I don't know how to repay you. Xiu'er said apologetically, every time the couple talked about it, they felt that they owed Mingxuan a lot of kindness.

"I'm like a brother and sister, what are these worth? Sister-in-law, don't care too much!" Ming Xuan said with a smile, not caring at all.

"Then why don't you stay here for a night and have a good meal!" Xiu'er said enthusiastically, not allowing Mingxuan to push back any longer.

......

Since Liang Dayi is not at home, there is no need to stay any longer, not to mention that if he is still here, seeing them so polite, they are not used to it, and he is not used to it, so early the next morning, Mingxuan insisted on leaving with Qiu Qian'er.

"Do you have a good relationship with that person named Liang Dayi?" Since entering Liang Dayi's house, Qiu Qian'er has been silent, but a little unlike her xìng, which makes Xiu'er think that she is like this, but let her go.

"I studied art with him in Qingyangmen, and we have a good relationship with each other!" Ming Xuan said with a smile, and when he fell to Rì Peak, Liang Dayi also helped him.

"Oh. Qiu Qian'er replied sullenly, and there was no follow-up.

"Why do you suddenly ask that?" Ming Xuan was a little puzzled.

"No, I just think it's strange, because in my clan, only the strong will be respected by others, if there is a strong person in the family, then everyone will be respectful to you, but if the weak person comes, then most of the people will not pay attention to you. So there is only respect and adoration between us, and there is not so much messy relationship. Qiu Qian'er said silently.

"Isn't that impersonal at all, and too boring? Ming Xuan said with some surprise.

"If there is no tradition of respecting the strong, how can we inspire the clansmen to keep moving forward, so all of us in Mangshan are striving to be the first and strive to be stronger! So all of them must be stronger than you Zhongzhou people!" Seeing that Mingxuan was a little dissatisfied with the customs of Mangshan, Qiu Qian'er said a little angrily.

"If the people of a group only get along with each other, and have no feelings at all, then what's the difference between them and beasts?" Ming Xuan said-for-tat, the relationship established in this way was too cruel.

"This is our custom in Mangshan, and you can't control it!" Qiu Qian'er yelled, not thinking there was anything wrong with it.

"Okay, okay, it's me who is nosy. "After all, this is a local custom, and Mingxuan really doesn't have the qualifications to blame it.

"Although there are strong and weak outsiders, they are still very kind to their families! It depends on the situation! We are also human beings, not beasts!" Qiu Qian'er was still angry.

"Actually, I can understand, after all, the environment in each place is different, and the customs and habits formed will naturally be different, so the fittest can survive. Ming Xuan didn't want to impose his ideas on others.

"That's pretty much ......it! Actually, I envy you, when you walked into Liang Dayi's house, everyone expressed joy from the bottom of their hearts, a happy look, and it looked very warm. Qiu Qian'er changed her words, and you talked about her feelings, compared to the cold relationship between the clansmen, the people of Zhongzhou are indeed much warmer.

"This is called human touch, the people of Zhongzhou are very simple, and they are very warm, if you are good to him, he will be doubly good to you, you will slowly feel it, and you will fall in love with this feeling when the time comes. Ming Xuan said with a faint smile, although he is also a quiet person, but occasionally such a lively and warm person, he also enjoys it very much.

"As far as what you said is so good, then why do those people still cheat me out of my money!" Qiu Qian'er said unconvinced, and immediately found Ming Xuan's death hole.

"This ...... This forest is big, there are all kinds of birds!There will always be some bad people, don't you have cowardly people in Mangshan?" Ming Xuan almost didn't know how to answer.

"Okay, even if you're reasonable, where should we go next?" Qiu Qian'er didn't have the heart to continue the discussion on this topic, and turned around and asked.

"Let's go to Yucheng and meet Senior Brother, after all, I don't know when we will be able to meet each other, and he may have the answer to your problem." Ming Xuan smiled and said.

"Oh, yes, what should I do!" Qiu Qian'er suddenly became elated, this was a big stone pressing on her heart.

"You'll know when you get there. Ming Xuan pretended to smile mysteriously and began to ride his horse.
