The labor class in the afternoon was untouchable. After all, Lin Wanwan did not want Linjiazhuang to become a parasitic aristocracy, so she could not be separated from the working people.
There are five new lambs raised in the school, and the on-duty students need to pick up goat grass. The ducks also need to go to the beach to feed them.
In addition to the children who are on duty, other children need to clean the village roads, feed the old scalpers that the family paid with donkey money, weed and water the family fields, go to the beach to pick up seafood, go to the mountains to find wild fruits, etc.
Anyway, there are all kinds of activities every day.
In the evening, Lin Wanwan was teaching Xiao Qingyu how to read in the main room. Suddenly there was a noise outside, which instantly sucked away Xiao Qingyu's soul.
"Mom, why is it so busy outside? Can I go take a look?" Xiao Qingyu raised her head and asked.
Lin Wanwan raised her head and looked at Huanong: "Go and ask Sun Cheyao to find out what happened outside?"
"Here!"
After a while, Sun Cheyao, who had gone out to watch the excitement, brought back the news: "Madam, it was Lin Mengxing who got the feedback from the girl's family whom we met last time and agreed to the marriage proposal. We agreed to go to Nacai in three days. Everyone went to him.
The family is enjoying the fun."
After planting cotton and sweet potatoes this month, we still have to plant rice and corn. People who don’t have so much land have to go to the sea to fish, which is really very busy.
Being able to find time for a blind date in your busy schedule shows how eager the people in Linjiazhuang are to get a wife. A wife and children are a hot bed, which is the lifelong pursuit of the common people.
Let’s just say that Lin Mengxing is twenty-three years old this year and is still a bachelor.
In the early Tang Dynasty, the law stipulated that men could get married at the age of twenty and women at the age of fifteen. After the Anshi Rebellion, for the sake of population, the age limit was reduced to fifteen for men and thirteen for women.
This legal age of marriage actually only applies to urban residents. In the countryside, regardless of dynasty or generation, men and women get married at the age of fifteen or sixteen.
And Lin Mengxing is already twenty-three and still single, so you can imagine how poor their family's conditions are.
His father, Lin Guotai, is Lin Mengbo's uncle, and his wife is Yin. They have two sons and one daughter. The eldest son is Lin Mengxing, the younger son is 18-year-old Lin Mengzhou, and they have a married 20-year-old daughter, Lin Juhua.
.
The betrothal gifts for his daughter's wedding were all used to pay for Lin Guotai's decoction and medicine for his serious illness, so the marriage of his two sons became a big problem.
This time, because I used to live behind Lin Wanwan's house, it was my turn to be demolished. Not only did I live in a spacious brick house based on the area of the population, but I also received additional "demolition compensation."
Now that we have a house and food at home, if we don’t marry a wife now, then when will we wait? Why don’t we arrange a blind date and marry a wife immediately?
"Well, the clan finally has a happy event to welcome a bride. The clan leader will definitely be happy." Lin Wanwan said with a smile.
Indeed, Patriarch Lin was very happy when he learned about this! With new brides coming into the family, there are fewer singles, which shows that everyone's life is getting better and better.
Nowadays, there are a lot of unmarried men of the right age in the clan, all waiting for their parents to find wives for them.
Lin Wanwan was also very happy. She couldn't help with other things, but as the man was the first person to hold a wedding event after she came to the clan, she decided to go to modern times to buy some more wedding candies to support the occasion for the man.
Three days later, when she went out to collect food, Lin Wanwan indeed gave Lin Meng an expert a package of unpacked Alpine hard candies.
Lin Wanwan bought it for 20 yuan per catty in modern times. It was not expensive, but it was tiring to unpack it by herself. When she gave the Tang Dynasty to Master Lin Meng, their family was so grateful that they almost knelt down to say thank you.
Later, he also gave Lin Wanwan a piece of gold fish glue originally prepared for the bride (now the one given to the mother-in-law's family was replaced by Lin Wanwan's candies).
Golden anchovy maw is yellow-lip isinglass, the Hermès of isinglasses, the Rolls-Royce of isinglasses, and the king of isinglasses. It is known as "as expensive as gold" in modern times - no, it is actually more expensive than gold.
Expensive, thousands of dollars per gram!
It has special effects on nourishing the liver and kidneys, is very good at stopping bleeding, and is effective in curing maternal postpartum hemorrhage. Therefore, fishermen often dry it and save it for their sons to marry.
None of the obvious ones on the modern market are sold now, because the yellow-lipped fish has become a national first-class protected animal.
Nowadays, this kind of isinglass is a historical stock, only available in the collection world, and its collection value even exceeds its nutritional value (which means you can’t buy it even if you have money).
Lin Wanwan looked at the gold anchovy maw, which was at least one pound, sent by expert Lin Meng. She also said that she only had this little stuff at home, and she really couldn't come up with any other good products to repay Lin Wanwan, so she hoped she wouldn't dislike it.
Similar to Yunyun.
Lin Wanwan raised her eyes and looked at the sky. Oh, what a sin. She exchanged twenty-one kilograms of hard candies for fish glue worth thousands of gold. She was unwilling to accept it at all.
Such a golden anchovy maw is estimated to be worth nearly two million in the modern collection market! Lin Wanwan has sold other isinglasses several times before (also given by her tribe), so she knows it well.
The price difference of the time and space dealer is so huge that I can’t bear to make it.
It wasn’t until she learned that Lin Meng’s expert had prepared more than just one fish maw, that Lin Wanwan accepted the other party’s wishes and decided to give them a modern custom-made fresh cream multi-layered cake in return on their wedding day in addition to sugar (
Pretend you made it yourself).
At around nine o'clock that night, Lin Wanwan returned to modern times. Modern time was around one o'clock in the morning, so she simply set the alarm clock in her bedroom and slept.
At seven o'clock in the morning, the alarm clock rang. Lin Wanwan stretched out her hand from the bed and snuffed out the alarm, and shouted to the smart video speaker: "Classmate Xiaodu, open the curtains."
"Okay, Master, the curtains are about to open."
Linking curtains, air conditioners, TVs and other electronic devices with smart speakers is the only change Lin Wanwan has made in the villa, and it suits her very well.
The curtains slowly opened, and the soft morning sunlight filtered in. Lin Wanwan gradually woke up, got up, and went to the built-in bathroom to wash up.
After that, he went downstairs and found the frozen Huanong dumplings from the refrigerator, and cooked breakfast for himself.
The dining table at home was made by Grandpa Lin by a carpenter in the village. It is an authentic old-fashioned Eight Immortals table.
Lin Wanwan hasn't sat here to eat for a long time since her grandfather left.
After finishing eating and cleaning up, at 7:30, Lin Wanwan went out to pick up the courier. It was the courier sent by the Vehicle Administration, and inside it was Lin Wanwan's freshly issued C driver's license.
Lin Wanwan took the driver's license and looked it over and over, then put on a mask and went out to buy a car!
There will be a spring auto show recently at the International Convention and Exhibition Center. Lin Wanwan just checked it online, so she can go and pick it up.
It takes about half an hour to take a taxi from Lin Wanwan's neighborhood to the International Convention and Exhibition Center. It was exactly eight o'clock when we got there, the time when the exhibition opened, so there was no time wasted at all.
In the past few days, Lin Wanwan has not bothered to deal with the bad things about Haicheng's house. Anyway, they have been handed over to Lawyer Tan to handle them all.
The Gong family members sent word that they wanted to negotiate, but she was too lazy to pay attention. This chapter has been completed!
