Chapter 802: Poor King Ning
Li Hao heard the words of his mother and Gu Ye, and hurriedly called: "Mother, am I your son, or Li'er is your daughter? Don't bring such a trick on your own son. And Xiao Ye, you are afraid that the world will not be in chaos. Isn't it? When you get married, do you want to hold your man's purse too?"
Li Haoniang was afraid that her son would be ignorant and annoyed the little girl Ye'er, so she hurriedly scolded: "Stinky boy! Can you speak? If you can't speak, just keep your mouth shut and eat your meal! Ye'er, you Don't follow the boy's general knowledge, he is just a stinky mouth, and he has no bad intentions!"
Gu Ye smiled at her and said, "It's okay! My brother and I grew up together with Haozi since childhood. Can I know what kind of person he is?"
Then, she raised her voice and said to Li Hao: "My brother Chen is more conscious than you. He has already said that after getting married, his everything is mine, and mine is still mine! My brother Chen also said that marrying Having a daughter-in-law is for pain. If you can’t even take care of your own daughter-in-law, then you are the man who fails the most. Haozi, you have to learn more!”
Ninth Uncle took a sip of wine, and when he heard the words, he worried: "Mingzi, who is Brother Chen in Ye'er's mouth? I haven't heard that she is engaged!"
The others also raised their ears, waiting for Gu Ming's answer. Gu Ye holds a special place in the hearts of the people of Qingshan Village. Some treat her as a relative, some treat her as a benefactor, and some are envious... Many people are silently paying attention to her important life events.
Gu Ming, like Brother Chu Mushan, is not interested in creatures like "brother-in-law". He simply said: "He is King Ning of the Yan Kingdom, the god of war in the army! When I came to watch the Great Medicine Fair last year, I fell in love with my sister at first sight..."
"Wang... wangye, the king of the Yan Kingdom?" The old village chief and the patriarch of the Gu clan couldn't help but open their mouths wide and stunned.
In their opinion, Duke Zhenguo of Dongling is already a very important person. Xiao Ye'er is the daughter of their family, and her future husband's family must be the right one. However, they didn't expect that a big country like the Yan Kingdom, their prince, would actually take a fancy to their girl Ye'er.
At the same time of shock, I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in my heart. After all, Ye Er girl grew up in their Qingshan Village, she can become more and more prosperous, and capture the prince of the big country, which shows that the water and soil of their Qingshan Village support people!
"God of War? I heard the story of the God of War of the Yan Kingdom in the storyteller!" When Gu Lier was in Yancheng, Dashuang and Xiaoshuang went to see her a few times. These two brothers, when they have nothing to do, like to get together next to the teahouse, so that they can read and hear books outside the window.
Xiaoshuang danced excitedly: "The soldiers and horses under the God of War are like the gods of the sky coming to the world. They are invincible and invincible. The God of War uses his soldiers like a god. There is no battle that he cannot win. Failed!"
A half-eldest boy his age admires heroes the most. After he occasionally heard the news of the God of War, the God of War instantly became the idol in Xiaoshuang's heart, and he admired it so much! He rushed to Gu Ming with glowing eyes, grabbed his hand and asked, "Ye'er is going to marry the God of War? Is this true?"
Gu Ming was holding a piece of roast duck skin on his chopsticks, when he interrupted him like this, the duck, which was about to reach its mouth, just... fell to the ground. He put down his chopsticks and said unpleasantly, "He once wanted to propose to Duke Zhen Guo, but he was blasted out by Duke Zhen Guo. That guy is almost a year older than his sister, and the old cow still wants to eat tender grass! Hmph! , it's not that easy!"
ah? The prince of the state of Yan was like this, and Duke Zhen Guo looked down on him. Could it be that...he wants to marry his daughter to the prince? Maybe, didn't Li Er's letter say that Ye Er almost died in order to save the prince? Could it be that they are about to fly out of a golden phoenix from Qingshan Village?
Gu Ye shrugged, thinking in his heart: Brother Chen, how unwelcome you are from your brothers. You know what, you've become an old cow.
Think about it, not to mention this life, brother Chen is ten years older than her. Let's talk about the last life, when she met him, she was fifteen, and what about him? But it's already twenty-three. She's eight years older than her, and she really looks like an old cow eating tender grass! Being said to be an old cow, he did not wrong him!
Man, what does it matter if you are older? Older men know that they hurt their wives! This is the os in Gu Ye's heart. However, she won't say it stupidly, her brothers will say that her daughter is not in the middle, and her elbows are turned out!
well! Having more brothers is not always a good thing. In particular, there are six or seven elder brothers controlled by sisters, and a father controlled by a daughter. Ling Juechen children's shoes, the revolution has not yet succeeded, comrades still need to work hard! Come on, come on, come on!
Aunt Ninth still considers Ye'er from a woman's position: "It doesn't matter if the man is older, as long as he can treat Ye'er wholeheartedly. I'm afraid... This prince is so old, there is no way that there is no concubine in the family. Yes. We Ye'er are too young to marry those goblins!"
"That's not it!" Gu Ming was very satisfied with Ling Juechen, "When my sister went to the Yan Kingdom to treat the emperor and the fourth prince, we stayed in Prince Ning's mansion. Not to mention the concubine and the concubine. , there are almost no younger maids in the family."
Ninth Aunt was even more worried: "Don't need maids to serve? That prince, won't he have any special hobbies?"
Hearing this, Gu Ye almost spit out a mouthful of soup. Haha, Brother Chen, another one who suspects that you have special hobbies. Alas... When a man is old, he is not married, and it is inevitable that people will have some associations. Poor Brother Chen, sympathize with you!
The men, women and children of Qingshan Village ate the richest and most delicious meal in their life in the canteen of the pharmaceutical factory. In the afternoon, most of the villagers in Qingshan Village gather their luggage in their own yards. With the help of several wives, Aunt Jiu made a list of her daughter's dowry.
The person who recorded it was Li Xiuer, who was arrested as a strong man. Not many people in Qingshan Village can read, and even fewer girls. Li Xiuer also began to learn to read after working in a pharmaceutical factory.
Half of the teenagers followed Chu Mushan and Gu Ming to the nearby grove. Chu Mushan asked his servant to return to the Duke's Mansion to bring him and his brothers the bows and arrows that he and his brothers first practiced archery. Ying Nuo gave it to Brother Gu Qingsong, as well as Da Shuang and Xiao Shuang of Ninth Aunt's family.
He had inquired about it, and when his sister was in Qingshan Village, the Aunt Jiu's family took special care of her. If it wasn't for the ninth aunt who lives next door, I'm afraid that my sister would have long ago... Chu Mushan gritted her teeth and cast her unkind eyes on Gu Qiao. If he didn't care that he was Gu Ming's biological father, he would have beaten him up long ago!
Several half-sized boys, holding bows and arrows excitedly, rubbed them cherishly. Such a beautiful bow and arrow, even more exquisite than the one Zhang Orion gave to his son. Xiaoshuang eagerly pulled the bowstring, but found it difficult to pull it off.
He lucked out silently, and with all his strength, he pulled the string quiveringly, his face flushed red from the force. However, after pulling it apart, he somehow let go and fell into a stalemate. Gu Ming was afraid that he would hurt himself, so he hurried up to help.
With the help of Gu Ming, Xiao Shuang loosened the bowstring. He was a little embarrassed to help himself and said: "Chu Liu has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and his arm strength must be stronger than mine. After I exercise for a while, I should be able to pull it off easily."
Gu Ming couldn't help but said, "This bow was used by the brothers of the Chu family when they were seven or eight years old."
ah? A few guys tried it quietly, but almost none of them could be pulled away smoothly. They are almost fifteen or sixteen years old, but they can't even draw the bows and arrows when they were seven or eight years old. What a shame!
Chu Mushan smiled and said, "We were born in a family of military generals. We started training horses when we were three years old, and when we were fifteen or sixteen years old, we went to the military to practice. We naturally have to practice hard on weekdays! It's not that you can't draw the bow and arrow, but that you don't have the methods and skills."
While demonstrating, Chu Mushan explained the skills of drawing a bow and archery. Xiaoshuang has a more flexible mind and learns quickly. He tried to pull the bow and arrow in his hand again, and it was much easier than before. He found a hare passing quickly, and hurriedly opened his bow to shoot. The archery he just learned was obviously not enough to get home, so the arrow shot out and stuck in the ground.
Chu Mushan introduced the tricks of shooting moving objects again, and then let them practice. There are no large beasts in the woods. There are few natural enemies of hares and pheasants in the woods, but there are quite a lot of them. By the evening, everyone has a harvest.
The boys happily sent them to the small canteen, and asked Muxi to help with the processing. Too many hares were hunted, and some of them were sent to the dining hall. The old employees in the factory are willing to spend dozens of dollars to improve their meals when they hear that there is game to eat.
The new employees have only received one month's wages, and although they have two taels of silver, they are all girls and boys from poor families, silently clutching their purses, not willing to eat a meal of meat and vegetables.
Now is the time when the green and yellow are not connected, and many people in the suburbs of Beijing are even looking forward to filling their stomachs. In their home, they are still waiting for the wages to buy rice and cook it! He (she) are all filial and filial children. They can't do themselves in the factory and eat a lot of meat, while the family is still tightening their belts and starving...
Gu Ye, who was observing the "people's sentiments" in the cafeteria, saw this scene and couldn't help sighing. In this era, productivity is lagging behind, and food production is terrifyingly low. It is good to catch up with good weather and good weather. After paying the taxes collected by the court, most of the people can barely make ends meet.
If the banker failed to harvest any year and the family had no surplus food, many people sold their sons and daughters at the turn of spring and summer in order to survive. When recruiting workers in Gu Ye's pharmaceutical factory, priority was given to those with poor backgrounds, good character, and diligent hands and feet. But after all, the number of workers recruited by the pharmaceutical factory is limited, and there are too few people who can help...
Chu Mushan, who was following her, thought that she sympathized with the employees who were reluctant to buy meat and vegetables, and said, "Today, I took them to hunt and found that there were too many hares in the woods under the mountain near the pharmaceutical factory. The grass was gnawed in a mess, and even the roots and bark of many small trees were used as food."
