Not only did his eyeballs fall into the pot, but Zhu Ping'an's whole body almost fell into the pot.
What Zhu Pingan thought of was a little scary, that is, the arrogant, sinister and willful Li Shu was actually the Li family chef who had been cooking delicious food for him for several years...
When did this girl start making food for herself?
Then, Zhu Ping'an remembered the clues from the past. When he borrowed books from the Li family in Shanghe Village, he once talked about the story of the Yitian Slaughter. Li Shu had someone bring him a plate of snacks, which seemed to be some kind of braised meat. It looked very ugly.
, well, it tastes like a dark cuisine, so unpalatable that I have no friends. I still remember that I asked Li Shu and the others if the Li family had changed their chefs, and then in the spirit of being responsible for the Li family, I also ordered the new chef in the Li Shu family.
After a lot of trouble with the cook I hired, I finally came to the conclusion: This cook knows nothing about cooking and has no intelligence. For your safety, it’s better to find another one...
Now, Zhu Ping'an understood why Li Shu lost his temper inexplicably after listening to his words, threw the plate, and made a bad face. It was said that Li Shu didn't mix a bottle of rat poison for himself at that time, so it was a minor incident.
At that time, it was probably the first time this girl made food for herself.
Then more clues emerged from the bottom of Zhu Pingan's heart. Zhu Pingan remembered that when he was reading at Li's house, one time Li Shu said she was going out to change clothes and refused to let the maid follow her. When she came back, Zhu Pingan discovered
There seemed to be a dark spot on the tip of the pink Li Shu's nose. At that time, I thought it was because she accidentally dropped the eyebrow pencil on the tip of her nose while putting on makeup.
Now that I think about it, it must have been the ashes from the vegetation that fell on the tip of this girl's nose while she was cooking.
Then, Zhu Ping'an understood why this girl Li Shu got so arrogant when she praised the chef of the Li family.
Then, I remembered that I like to get up early to study every day, but the sky is only about five o'clock in the morning, the rooster has not yet crowed, and the breakfast carefully prepared by the Li family chef has arrived; Li Mo checked the post, and he went to work in advance, and he had to go out before midnight. But
Every time I have had breakfast cooked by the chef of the Li family; how early does this girl get up...
…
Even if Zhu Pingan is slow to react, he can still understand the hidden meaning of an arrogant noble lady lowering her body to cook for herself...
However, Li Shu, who had slim legs when she was a child and looked like a stupid toad when she grew up, actually...
Deep thought and fear
This fact is like a herd of grass and mud horses, suddenly appearing unexpectedly, and then roaring and running unreasonably in Zhu Pingan's mind...
When Zhu Ping'an fell into a strange state, Xiahe Village had become a lively sea, with the continuous sound of firecrackers, the suona blowing to the sky and the earth, and the opera troupe set up two stages in Xiahe Village and sang happily,
The village was crowded with people, and the roofs and trees at the end of the village were crowded with people.
A large house at the west end of Xiahe Village hung up red lanterns and pasted red couplets. Dozens of tables of water banquets were set up on the road outside the house, where pots were set up, pigs and sheep were slaughtered, chickens and ducks were cooked.
They were cutting fish, picking vegetables, and moving the table. The villagers and neighbors all joined in, and the scene was very lively.
Many people came from Qiliba Village and crowded Xiahe Village.
What day is it today? Is Xiahe Village so lively?
To this question, the people who crowd the front streets and back alleys of Xiahe Village can tell you the answer. Today is the big day in Xiahe Village and today’s Ming Dynasty’s number one scholar, Zhu Ping’an, and the daughter of the wealthy Li family in Shanghe Village. No one will miss this.
The place was lively.
Everyone knows that Zhu Ping'an is the number one scholar in the Ming Dynasty, and everyone also knows how rich Mr. Li's family in Shanghe Village is. Everyone has also heard how handsome Miss Li is, how good she is at home, how virtuous, and how filial.
On an island thousands of miles away, the wedding that Li Shu was worried about without a bride and groom took place on time in Shanghe Village to her surprise!
As early as early in the morning, Xiahe Village was already bustling with activity.
People from Qiliba Village occupied the space early, eating the peanuts, melon seeds and candies generously distributed by the Zhu family, and joining in the fun with relish. People who did not occupy a good space also showed their creativity, climbing a tree and sitting in the tree.
Climb on a branch, climb a wall, or build a house. One by one, they become like Spider-Man, almost flying to the sky. The crazy naughty boy takes the wedding money and candy he grabbed, and runs through the crowd screaming. He runs away from the reins.
Like a small foal, the mother chased after her, shouting worriedly and angrily, "Slow down, slow down, don't fall."
"Here it comes, here it comes, the bride-to-be is back"
The crowd in front suddenly exploded like cold water dripping into a pan of oil. For a moment, people stretched their necks and looked forward.
Then there was a uniform sound of cold air, which was so shocking.
The scene in front of them simply exceeded their imagination. Generally, a daughter's family will give a dowry to a girl when she marries. The dowry given by her mother's family is the woman's private house, but when a married girl throws water, people give dowry only for the sake of it.
Meaning, if you feel sorry for the girl, give more so that the woman can have confidence in her husband's family. Sixty-four dowries for a woman is an integer, which is called a full dowry. If the dowry is less than this number, thirty-two dowries are given, which is called a half dowry.
Of course, this is only calculated for large families, and it basically doesn’t count for small families because they can’t afford it. As far as Xiahe Village is concerned, the dowry is only seven or eight dollars, and at most a dozen or so will be enough.
But the scene in front of them really almost made their eyes pop out, and they almost doubted their own eyes.
This dowry from the Li Shu family simply suffocated them.
Shili Hongzhuang.
It’s really the Ten Miles of Hongzhuang. There are 128 dowry bearers in front of them. People dressed neatly in red clothes carry the dowry. It stretches from Shanghe Village to Xiahe Village. I heard that the tail of the team ends at Shanghe Village and then goes on.
of a village.
What makes people gasp the most is that the dowry bearers deliberately open the dowry boxes and cupboards to carry them. This is also to show off the dowry of the bride’s family to people. Did you see that our dowries are all real?
There is no fraud at all, both quantity and quality.
The dowry box that was carried at the front was open. It was not filled with gold, silver, pearls, jade, or banknotes and gems, but blocks of adobe. Each block was very thick and large. The adobe bricks were engraved with map patterns. People counted them.
, there are twenty such adobe bricks in total.
Just raising it made people's eyes pop out.
This adobe brick is not an ordinary adobe brick. This adobe brick represents land. This is a custom in the dowry of the Ming Dynasty. There is a land deed under each adobe brick. The size of the brick corresponds to the size of the land. This is the dowry of the Li family.
I'm afraid each brick represents ten hectares of fertile land. Twenty yuan equals two hundred hectares of fertile land. In the Ming Dynasty, fifty acres were converted into one hectare. This dowry was equivalent to 10,000 acres of fertile land.
According to convention, "the famous land of a powerful family is limited to a thousand acres." If a family can own a thousand acres of land, it is already an amazing "powerful family." But as soon as the Li family reaches out, it is a dowry of ten thousand acres of fertile land.
ah.
Not to mention there is a dowry of more than 100 kilograms later.
This old Li family is marrying a girl, almost like marrying a princess. Even princesses don't have such a dowry.
I've long heard that Lao Li's family is not simple, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful.
In fact, the dowry bearers of the Li family were very disdainful when they heard the words of people on both sides of the road. One brick is ten hectares? Let’s say a hundred hectares! (To be continued.)
