Lou Xiaoyi changed his technique again and struck more intensively. Few housewives in this era were willing to exercise. Without this awareness, he still couldn't make his mother listen to his advice, but he could relax in time.
Promoting blood circulation is still good.
"Practice is just a hobby, not everything. To me, there are many more important things than this, such as supporting the elders, maintaining the livelihood of the Lou family, and obtaining documents..."
Wenzhuang, a title similar to the scholar in his previous life in ancient times, is a kind of recognition for scholars, who can obtain a certain social status. Of course, if you want to be an official, you have to take the college entrance examination; Lou Yao didn't want him to follow the example of her husband.
He followed in his footsteps, so he never asked for it in this regard, but Lou Xiaoyi knew that a title of Wenzhuang was still what his mother wanted to see.
Lou Xiaoyi was a bit stubborn before, knowing what his mother wanted and unwilling to take the exam for that false reputation, but now his soul has been baptized by countless certificates in his previous life, and he has no psychological pressure on it.
Mrs. Lou Yao was deeply affected by what she heard, and her eyes curled up with a smile. Her son was now becoming more and more fluent in speech, and she automatically stopped talking to explore the root cause of this change.
There is a kind of lie in this world that is always true, and that is a son who has other thoughts and a mother who loves and dotes on him.
"Okay! I'm relieved that Xiao Yi can put his practice in the correct position. But among the major things ranked before practice, you seem to have forgotten one very important thing?"
Lou Xiaoyi was stunned, "What did you forget? Is there anything more important?"
The old lady turned around and tapped his forehead with her finger, "I'm pretending to be confused? There are three ways to be unfilial, and the first is to be unmarried! Xiao Yi will be eighteen in the Chinese New Year. At this age, many young men even have children.
Now, you dare to say you don’t know?”
Lou Xiaoyi was very embarrassed, "Mom, I'm still young! Is it too early to talk about this?"
The old lady scolded: "What's so small? Let's just talk about your friends from far away. Does the second eldest son of the Qi family have children? Wang Tiezhu and Fatty Qian have been married for more than a year, and the others have already made arrangements to get married.
, you are the only one who is stupid and hangs out with other people, but you don’t know that the others are all people with families!”
Aunt Cai interjected from the side, "My dear husband, I don't know, but the second child of the Qi family already has two children, and the fat man's wife from the Qian family is also pregnant. How much older can they be than my dear husband? They are only one year old!"
Lou Xiaoyi could not withstand the attacks of the two elders in turn, so he resorted to the ultimate move - the Silence Technique.
But in the eyes of the two old women who gave birth to him and raised him, this trick was not enough.
Aunt Caihuan said slowly, "Your mother and I have been making arrangements for you for a long time, and now we finally have some clues.
The Lin family in the east of the city has been a scholar for generations. Although his father is only a small county magistrate, our Lou Mansion is no better than before. The youngest daughter of the Lin family's direct wife, named Jiayin, is fifteen years old and in the prime of life, which is perfect for you. She also plays the piano.
He is excellent at chess, calligraphy and painting, has a gentle temperament, and has an unparalleled appearance. Wouldn't it be beautiful if he could come through and be harmonious with your poetry and calligraphy?"
Lou Xiaoyi couldn't help it anymore, "Fifteen years old? I'm afraid you're still underage, right? How is this okay?"
Lou Yao made the final decision, "Why can't it be done? According to the law of the night, a woman can marry and follow her husband when she is fifteen years old. If you think she is too young, you can make a decision this year and get married next year!
There are very few poets and calligraphers in Pucheng. It is not easy to find such an outstanding one. Countless pairs of eyes are watching. If we don’t start early and wait until we are a little older, we don’t know which family to marry as a young lady, and where to marry. Is it your turn?
Xiao Yi, my Lou family is not as powerful as before, so we can no longer be willful!
This matter is settled like this. Don’t think that the woman is just eager to marry you. There are many suitors, many of whom are wealthy and powerful families in Pucheng. You have no advantage at all among them. They all point to you. The little fame your father had when he was still alive supports you.
Three days later, there will be a spring party at Xiaoye Lake. Countless talents and beauties from Pucheng will participate, including Miss Lin Jiayin. This is also a test. If you perform well at the spring party, can you Leave a good impression on the Lin family's young lady, and it will be much more convenient for your Aunt Caihuan and I to have someone come to propose to you in the future, otherwise, I'm afraid we will lose the Lou family's face!"
You all asked for it, why did you lose face to me? Think about it in your heart, but you don’t dare to say it with your mouth, so you just promise and leave in anger.
Before he returned to his courtyard, he had completely forgotten about the blind date. It was not that he was big-hearted, but that he had very rich practical experience. Wasn't it just a blind date? In his previous life, he had a lot of experience in this area and was successful. No experience, countless failures.
He doesn't refuse to find someone to warm his bed, but he very much refuses to be tied up by someone. He hasn't had enough time under the free sky, and he hasn't even been to a dirty hotel, so why should he label himself so early?
Lou Xiaoyi has been very busy recently. The main thing he is busy with is collecting various books about spiritual practice, legends, anecdotes, mountains and rivers geography, people and rivers... These cannot help him truly understand spiritual practice, but they can help him understand the world. .
Since it is a scholarly family, Lou's collection of books is unusually large. Considering Lou Sima's status at the time, it is hard to say how much wealth he has accumulated, but the breadth and breadth of the books are not only in Pucheng, but in the whole States and territories can all be counted.
For these books, Lou Xiaoyi was originally only interested in poetry, poetry, literature, and historical records, and did not dabble in other miscellaneous books. But now that he has changed his soul, he has just turned around. Instead, he likes these books, which are completely different from the perspective of serious scholars. It's something for leisure books.
There are two big library in Lou Mansion, one is the Yaku that the original soul likes, which are all things that the so-called noble literati like, and the other is the Ye library, which is filled with countless unofficial biographies. What he is doing now is to I sorted out these things in the Yeku by categories, and then used my super reading ability that I had developed at a certain point in my previous life to go through them and find what I needed.
No matter where he goes, no matter what he will face, knowledge will always be the most useful foundation. Although he was unsatisfied in his previous life, it was more about his character than his ability.
He also has a plan for his life. Cultivation is an important direction. It is not to save the world, but to live a few more years. After a year and a half, he can exercise to a certain level and interact with the veterans every day. His acting has made some progress, and after passing the Wenzhuang examination, he plans to leave Pucheng and see more of the world.
But the prerequisite is that you have a Wen-Zhuang name. This is not only to comfort your mother, but also a very effective talisman when you go out. In this world, ordinary people still have countless troubles when traveling.
After coming to this world for three or four months, the effect of physical exercise is remarkable. After all, a seventeen-year-old body has a strong recovery ability, and his nutrition is no problem. It is just that he is a little weak due to sitting for a long time and not moving enough.
Now his body is no different from that of a normal teenager, and with the guidance of several veteran soldiers, he thinks that in another year, he will have the ability to protect himself in the face of little predators.
The only trouble is how to persuade his mother to let him travel far away. There is no way to plan this kind of thing, so we can only take it one step at a time and hope for a better chance.
