When Liu Jin heard this, he was slightly startled. The inertia of thinking from later generations also made him quickly say: "I am only eighteen years old and still a child. How can I get married?"
"You are considered a man at the age of sixteen. You are already eighteen years old now. Why can't you get married? Hu Tiedan, who is the same age as you in the village, already has three children."
"In the past, our family didn't have many conditions, and no good people looked up to us, but it's different now. Jin'er, you are now famous all over the capital. In addition, you have earned such a big business, and you still have fame.
, Taking off is just around the corner, and there are many famous families who are willing to marry our family."
Wang looked at Liu Jin, smiled and said, this period of time is also the happiest time in these years, because matchmakers come here every now and then to spread the word.
Today, landlord Li's family in the county has asked a matchmaker to tell them that they have a daughter who is 28 years old, beautiful, dignified, virtuous and virtuous...
Tomorrow, a local prominent family, the Zhang family, will ask a matchmaker to tell them that the young master is known all over the world for his virtuous talents and talents. When the day comes, he will be a farmhouse minister in the morning and ascend to the emperor's palace in the evening...
This made Ms. Wang happy, but she also kept thinking about Liu Jin's life events. After all, men should marry when they are young, and women should marry when they are young. There is also the saying of starting a family and starting a career. After starting a family, start a career. After starting a family, Liu Jin can concentrate on his career.
Take the imperial examination, go to high school next year, and be named on the gold medal list the year after that, and be on the lintel of the gate.
"Mom, didn't I tell you? Let's talk about it after I'm in high school next year."
"I'm very busy right now. I'm very busy here in Xishan, the capital. After spring, I have to be busy building a fleet to go to Huanghuangzhou. I have to arrange the snow salt business here at home."
"I have to attend Qiuwei next year, so how can I have time to get married?"
"What's more, I haven't met anyone I like until now. No, no~ I'll talk about it later."
Liu Jin pouted. He really didn't want to get married now. He was indeed busy. Besides, Liu Jin had not met anyone he liked until now.
As for the blind date in ancient times that relied on matchmakers to spread word, Liu Jin felt that it was more deceptive than the blind dates in later generations. At least in later blind dates, you can still meet the woman, and you can still see how she looks to some extent.
In this ancient blind date, you can't even see the other person. It all depends on the matchmaker's mouth. This matchmaker relies on this mouth to make a living. It can be said that it is dead and alive. There is no such thing.
How much credibility.
Of course, given Liu Jin's current popularity, he shouldn't be willing to marry a crooked man. However, Liu Jin would never accept this method of getting married. He didn't know him at all and was not familiar with him.
When strangers are together, Liu Jin probably won't even be able to say a few words.
"No matter how busy you are, this life-long event is also important. No matter how busy you are, you can still find time for it."
"As for if you haven't met someone you like, just don't worry, Jin'er, I will help you check it. The people who come to our house now to spread the word are all local famous families, and they are all ladies, so I will keep them all safe.
She is beautiful and virtuous, and you will definitely like her as your wife."
Seeing Liu Jin's impatient look, Mrs. Wang said patiently that she had already learned about several of them in advance, and they were all very good. As long as Liu Jin nodded, she could immediately find a matchmaker to propose marriage to the other party's family.
You can get married in the next year and have a grandson in the second half of next year.
"Let's wait until I finish my work next year~ Qiu Wei is the big deal. When I get into high school and get a spot on the gold medal list, will I still be afraid that I won't be able to marry a lady?"
There was no other way, Liu Jin resorted to dragging the word Jue again, and brought up the matter of the Qiu Wei imperial examination. Liu Jin knew that as long as he talked about his imperial examination, Wang would never force himself.
"Okay, Jin'er, what you said makes sense, but after the Chinese New Year, you also have to visit the local famous families. It's considered polite and we can't be accused of being disrespectful."
Wang nodded helplessly, and then gave instructions to Liu Jin.
"Don't worry, I will definitely visit them one by one when the time comes."
"I'm going to find Erhu~"
Liu Jin quickly ran away after saying a word. Now he really feels like an older unmarried man is afraid of going home to celebrate the New Year. Think about the jokes that will be circulated on the Internet in future generations.
How old is the young man this year?
Are you married?
In which unit do you work?
How much is the salary?
Faced with such four consecutive attacks, any older unmarried young man would definitely run away. This is how Liu Jin feels now.
"I'm just a child~"
Thinking that he was an older unmarried young man at the age of eighteen, Liu Jin couldn't help but shake his head.
After leaving home, Liu Jin also walked towards Xiahetun, preparing to visit Zhao Erhu's house.
Zhao Erhu's family is also in great shape now. They have become rich since they cooperated with Liu Jin in the snow salt industry. The old mud house that was originally a dilapidated mud house has now been transformed into a large courtyard with two entrances, so much so that Liu Jin almost couldn't find it.
Arrived at his home.
"Brother Jin~"
Regarding Liu Jin's arrival, the Zhao family naturally did not dare to neglect them, and they quickly welcomed Liu Jin into the living room and served good tea. Zhao Heishan even let Liu Jin sit directly on the main seat, while he sat in the guest room.
above.
When did Zhao Heishan, an honest farmer, have such a good time? He built this second-level house, and everyone in his family was well-clothed and well-fed. All of this was thanks to Liu Jin, and Liu Jin was theirs.
benefactor.
"Uncle Heishan~ There are so many people in your family, why don't you build a house with three entrances?"
Liu Jin looked at Zhao Heishan's new house carefully, thought about it and asked.
"The second-level house is enough to live in. Our family is just a farmer's house and we don't dare to build a third-level house. When our grandchildren are capable, they can just divide it out by themselves."
Zhao Heishan also grinned when he talked about this second-class house. After being an honest farmer all his life, he never dreamed that he could build such a big house. Naturally, he is quite proud now.
"That's true~"
"By the way, where is Erhu? He has been missing since he came back, and I don't know where he went."
Liu Jin thought for a while and nodded. In this era, only ordinary families can build a large house with three entrances. Although Zhao Heishan now has the money to build a house with three entrances, he has always been timid.
I dare to build a big house with three entrances because I don’t have the confidence.
There are neither scholars nor landlords and gentry in the family. Building a house that is too good can easily attract attention and cause trouble. To be honest, Zhao Heishan was worried about building this two-level house.
