Things went surprisingly smoothly. Perhaps due to the influence of the recent war, the girls on Qiufeng Ridge became more generous and generous, and were full of respect for the soldiers of Huairou Camp. After Hua Yuxi passed on the news, there were more than a hundred people that day.

The girl signed up and was willing to choose soldiers from the Huairou Camp to get engaged the next day.

Zhang Yuting carefully wrote down the information of each girl, and counted a total of 121 girls who wanted to get married, so she wrote 121 notes with numbers on them, from one to one hundred and twenty-one.

Put it into a wooden box with only a small opening exposed.

The girls grabbed the notes from them one by one. The one who caught the number at the front was naturally happy, and the one who caught the number at the back also cheered up, thinking that maybe there was a leftover leftover from the person in front.

They held the notes and couldn't help but fantasize about their future lives. Many of them didn't even sleep well all night, looking forward to the next day.

As for the Huairou camp at the foot of the mountain, Lan Qiao also cooperated with Hua Yuxi to select 121 of the best warriors who wanted to get married, preparing to participate in the "selection and engagement" the next day.

That night, Hua Yuxi and Lan Qiao did not stay together, but spent time in the camps on the mountain and at the foot of the mountain respectively. Lan Qiao and Li Bin talked a lot about military formations for marching and fighting, and found that although this man was unknown before, he actually had a lot of ambition.

Guogui has his own unique insights into many formations and tactics, which makes Lan Qiao very happy, and finally found a close friend in the art of war and military affairs.

Hua Yuxi also talked with her "deputy general" Zhang Yuting at night, and talked about many details in the Red Sleeve Camp. Zhang Yuting was quick to learn, and she understood many questions at once and explained them easily. She often drew inferences from one instance and made many suggestions that Hua Yuxi had originally

I haven't thought through the question thoroughly.

"Sister Zhang is so smart that I admire her." Hua Yuxi finally sighed, "If I were still working for the Erqi Society, Sister Zhang would be someone I would have to get rid of if I couldn't win over her."

"I just thought you were complimenting me." Zhang Yuting said with a sweet smile, "Isn't Lan Qiao also the person you wanted to get rid of? What happened? Instead of getting rid of him, he ended up getting rid of you."

Hua Yuxi blushed and said, "Sister Zhang is laughing at me."

The next morning, Lan Qiao and Hua Yuxi led the men and women from each camp to line up in the open space at the foot of Qiufeng Ridge. Zeng Jing, a round-faced girl from the girls' camp holding a note with the word "one", was the first to choose.

One hundred and twenty-one soldiers from the Huairou Battalion stood in a row, all with straight military uniforms and full of heroic spirit. Under the sunlight, they looked like a row of nails piercing the ground. It also made the hearts of other girls watching accelerate and they couldn't help but whisper.

.

Zeng Jing seemed to have the answer already. When she saw Tieniu's honest face appeared in the crowd, she opened her arms and said loudly: "Brother Tieniu, just join the slave family."

Her voice was extremely loud, and her voice could be heard far away. The other girls did not expect her to be so bold. They laughed heartily at first, and then became excited, thinking about how they would choose these men when it was their turn.

The soldiers on the other side also suppressed their laughter. Only Tieniu came out with a silly smile. Since Lan Qiao had already stated that "no matter who is chosen, I can't refuse", he walked straight to Zeng Jing and said: "Good girl, I love you."

you."

The second girl selected was named Wu Guli. She was not as bold as Zeng Jing. She walked up to Da Fengxian in the team a little shyly, bowed first, and then said in a sweet voice with a blushing face: "Mr. Da Feng

, are you willing to marry into the slave family?"

Seeing that Wu Guli was more beautiful than Zeng Jing just now, Da Feng smiled so hard that he said, "I'm so happy." Then he directly picked up Wu Guli and spun her around twice, only to make the latter feel ashamed.

After constantly patting his back, he finally landed smoothly.

As expected, the next two girls chose Gongsun Bao and Fan Niang. So far, except for Jue Ming, who was unwilling to participate, all the four officers-level figures that Lan Qiao most admired in Huairou camp were "famous and had their own rights."

The follow-up process is much faster. Due to the limited communication between the male and female battalions, except for the twenty or thirty elites who have been told stories by Hua Yuxi, the remaining nearly a hundred soldiers are not even known by the girls. When the elites

The warriors were picked by the girls at the top of the rankings, and the remaining girls basically relied on their eyes. Usually they would just point their hand at one of the warriors, and the warrior would consciously walk to the girl and join her.

Registered at Zhang Yuting.

Hua Yuxi looked at the grand scene of hundreds of people getting engaged in front of her, smiled and said to Lan Qiao: "Fortunately, I took the lead and locked up you big stupid fish."

She then coughed lightly and said like Zeng Jing just now: "Brother Lanqiao, just join the slave family."

Lan Qiao remembered that Zhu Qingxiao called him "Brother Lan Qiao" every time, and also remembered that if he calculated carefully, he and Li Jingshu were also distant cousins. He smiled and said: "Sister Jing'er, what did you say?

"

When all the girls had chosen their husbands and it was already noon, Zhang Yuting asked them to sit down on the ground on the hillside and dine with their chosen husbands. Then she discussed with Hua Yuxi the next matchmaking work: "This matter

Since the matter is decided by the officials, they must be responsible to the end. I can send out the servants in the palace to talk to each other and pay for the betrothal gifts as a sign of sincerity, or let each of them pay for it themselves, and if they can't afford it, I can advance them to the next one.

Month’s military pay.”

Hua Yuxi nodded and said: "This arrangement is perfect. I was worried that I would break my legs if I had to go door to door to talk to matchmakers. But this matter happened because of me, and I will always do my part.

I have paid for all the dowries for the girls, and I can still afford to give each of them a gold hairpin."

"It's a waste of time for you, beautiful girl." Zhang Yuting glanced at Lan Qiao thoughtfully and said, "Even if a hairpin is only worth ten guan, these more than 100 people will have to spend thousands of guan. You have hidden so much private property.

Should you give the money to your husband in the future, or keep it for yourself?"

Hua Yuxi didn't want to tell Zhang Yuting that she and Lan Qiao already owned a jewelry store. When the hairpin came out of the jewelry store, they would only calculate the cost price. She rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "Let's see if he can pamper me and make me happy."

"I hope he won't disappoint you." Zhang Yuting chuckled, "Now that the matter of hiring a matchmaker has been settled, it's time for the engagement period and the wedding."

Hua Yuxi thought for a while and said: "Today is the sixth day of the lunar month. Including the time for hiring a matchmaker, I think it's almost enough on the twelfth day of the first lunar month. There is also the wedding dress to buy. Sister Zhang, look at the money..."

Zhang Yuting pondered and said: "I'm afraid it's inappropriate to deduct it from their military pay, and it's not suitable to use it from military expenses. Well, I'll send someone to the city to ask if any cloth shop or clothing store is willing to donate this money.

How about we allow them to embroider their own brand name on the wedding clothes? This is also a kind of publicity for them. I remember that they just opened a new one in the past two days. What is it called 'Shuxianghao'?

'of."
