Yu Qingze was born to like men, and when he heard Chang Hao say 'marry a man', he thought that the folk customs of this dynasty were open and masculine style prevailed. He hadn't found out that the world was different.
In Yu Qingze's opinion, Chang Le is still so young and handsome, even if he wants to get married, he will not marry an old widower in his fifties or sixties. But looking at Chang Hao's reaction, there must be a lot of secrets that are not enough for outsiders.
"Hey, what do you know, little kid, don't block me, go away, don't get involved with the adult's affairs! Brother Le, come out quickly, I know you're at home..." The middle-aged man taught Chang Hao a few words , and then shouted with his throat pulled.
This kind of thing, this kind of scene, Yu Qingze, an outsider, can't continue to watch. He stood up and was about to move back to the room, but over there, Chang Hao, like a little leopard who was irritated, had already stretched out his hand and pushed the middle-aged man out, his expression as if he was about to open his mouth and bite someone in the next moment.
The middle-aged man was unprepared, he was pushed back two steps, he became irritable, and reached out and grabbed Chang Hao's small arm.
Yu Qingze was stunned, Chang Hao's reaction was too intense. Afraid that something might happen, he stopped, thinking that he could do me a favor then.
Chang Le heard the movement and hurried forward to pull his brother away.
Chang Hao still wanted to step forward to chase people, but was pushed behind by Chang Le with one hand. He couldn't move. He could only show a pair of angry round eyes and stared at the middle-aged man fiercely.
"Oh, this boy Chang Hao is really getting bigger and skinnier, and he's getting more and more outrageous! Brother Le, you too, you have to take care of him and teach him well. It's so rude, how can you go on like this!" The middle-aged man said. Pulling off his clothes, he scoffed at the two brothers.
Chang Le was unhappy when his beloved younger brother was scolded, his face sank, and he frowned at the middle-aged man. Even if you don't ask, he knows what he's here for.
The middle-aged man saw that Chang Le's face was not very happy, so he hit haha, his expression changed immediately, and asked softly, "Brother Le, the one from Majia Village has asked someone to ask again, what do you think about it? Well, what do you mean?"
Chang Le shook his head numbly and waved his hand to indicate refusal.
When the middle-aged man saw it, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, and then he covered his impatience again, and said with a sincere 'hard heart': "Brother Le, it's not me talking about you, you also know your situation, you can't say it with your mouth. Now, it's broken, and the color of the pregnant mole is so dull, how can a young man's family agree? Which man doesn't like to find a beautiful and able-bodied brother! Besides, you are twenty-two now, and you will soon be twenty-three. Getting older every year, it's not easy to find a man to ask for you. Do you think the right man is easy to find?"
When these rude words were spoken, there was a moment of silence on the scene.
Chang Le looked down at the ground and didn't speak, but Chang Hao couldn't help but reddened his eyes.
Although those words were true, he couldn't hear anyone saying that his brother was not good at all. In his heart, no one's brother was as good as his brother!
He jumped out from behind Chang Le, gritted his teeth and roared, "My brother is the best! Don't worry about it! Go, go! Get out!"
"Hey, little bastard, don't pull my clothes, I just finished it a few days ago! Don't be ignorant, the man from Majia Village is a little older, but he has no children, and the family conditions are good, and he lives in a tile. Fang, you can still give ten taels of silver as a betrothal gift! To put it badly, he can live for a few more years. When he goes, isn't it all yours? You are stupid, where can you find these conditions? …”
"You go! Go!"
"… "
There began to pull and pull again, but Yu Qingze was a little stunned.
The man's speech was too ugly, and his thoughts were quite incomprehensible. Exposing people's scars directly in front of others and poking people's sore spots, not to mention that he is an outsider next to them, it really makes people feel bad.
In Yu Qingze's view, although being unable to speak may be a little inconvenient, it is not impossible to live; as for breaking the stage? It's not a big deal, a man, so if you care about what you look like, ability and character are more important. What's more, although Chang Le's skin was a little tanned, he was very handsome and didn't... After a pause, he looked at Chang Le's heavy bangs...
Yu Qingze glanced at Chang Le's bangs, and was a little puzzled in his heart, but his focus soon shifted to the other two strange places in the middle-aged man's words.
In ancient times, it was common for people to get married. Yu Qingze knew that, but what about moles and childbirth? Also, why is it a man and a brother for a while? According to the words of middle-aged men, Chang Le can still have children? Because that pregnant mole is dark in color, so it is not easy to give birth
Can a man still have children
In Yu Qingze's circle, he deeply felt that there might be one very important thing in this world that he didn't understand.
The middle-aged man walked away swearing, and he could still be heard complaining about the lack of vision and ignorance of the Chang Le brothers from afar.
The brothers stood silent for a while. Afterwards, Chang Le patted Chang Hao on the shoulder and gave him a gesture, as if to comfort his younger brother.
Chang Hao looked up at his brother and hesitated, but the next moment he lowered his head and muttered: "Brother, I'm fine, I'm going to harvest the millet." After speaking, he took a few steps to pick up the sun rake and harvest the millet.
The middle-aged man is the husband of two brothers and uncles, named Wenli. Since Chang Le was fifteen years old, he has been keen to introduce people to Chang Le, but every time the people he introduced are crooked melons and cracked dates, either old widowers or people with bad conduct or physical defects. Really not a good match.
Changle refused every time. On the one hand, his younger brother is still young; on the other hand, his grandfather's health is not very good when he is old, and he is really worried. Moreover, his physical condition is indeed a big obstacle. Chang Le knew in his heart that after a few years, he hadn't thought about his own marriage, and just wanted to take good care of his grandfather and younger brother, so that the family could live a good life.
He thought so, but Wen Li didn't understand it, and still searched for those crooked melons and jujubes one after another.
At first, he thought that Wenli was for his own good, and he was very grateful to him. Later, when he and his younger brother overheard Wenli's conversation with his uncle, he realized that Wenli had another purpose.
Chang Le looked at his younger brother, sighed lightly and prepared to go back to the kitchen to continue cooking, but turned his head and met Yu Qingze's gaze.
Chang Le: …
Yu Qingze: …
This is really embarrassing, but no one wants to let others see their embarrassing things.
Chang Le was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly lowered his head and turned to the kitchen. Yu Qingze also touched his nose and quickly looked away.
At this moment, the yard door was opened with a hurrah, and an old man rushed in with a basket on his back, and asked, "Did Wenli come again?!"
Hearing the old man's voice, Chang Le stopped and turned around.
As soon as Chang Hao saw the old man, the tears he had been holding back all flowed down, he wiped his eyes fiercely, rushed over and hugged the old man's waist to complain: "Grandpa, uncle just said that the old widower from Majia Village. , said that his family is rich and rich, and he can even give ten taels of silver as a betrothal gift. That man is so old, he is so good, why didn't his uncle let his brother Yue marry him! I heard that he can't see his eyes Now, just to find someone to take care of him and be his servant!"
When the old man heard this, he was very angry, but Wen Li was gone and couldn't hear him. He didn't want his two grandchildren to be sad again, so he hugged his grandson and comforted him: "Don't pay attention to him! Don't worry, Xiaole. , With Grandpa here, he doesn't even think about it!"
Chang Le smiled when he heard the words, nodded, and went into the kitchen.
The young boy Chang Hao heard his grandfather's promise, and he acted coquettishly and complained. His emotions gradually calmed down, and he secretly wiped away tears on his grandfather's clothes. Then he let go of his grandfather embarrassedly, and ran over to continue collecting the millet.
After comforting the two grandsons, the old man looked at Yu Qingze who was standing at the door, and when he saw that he was awake, he immediately greeted: "Hey, boy, are you awake? How is your health?"
Yu Qingze felt a little embarrassed after seeing it like that, but seeing the calm attitude of the old man, he smiled and said, "Grandpa, I'm fine, thank you for making you worry."
The old man took off the back basket, put it under the eaves, and waved his hands cheerfully: "No thanks, who can go out without encountering a little difficulty."
The life-saving grace was downplayed by the old man as a small difficulty when going out. Yu Qingze admired it a lot, but he couldn't think so too, so he still expressed his gratitude very solemnly.
The old man waved his hand, and then bent down to look at Yu Qingze's left foot. After seeing a lot better, he said casually: "Speaking of which, it is also your fate. We usually don't go into the mountains when it rains heavily, and the road is slippery. It happened that Xiaole didn't know that that day. Why did you want to go up the mountain to pick up mushrooms, and then I found you."
After a pause, the old man asked again, "It's raining so hard, why did you run up the mountain?"
Yu Qingze knew that the old man was asking him about his origin, and naturally he couldn't tell his true origin, so he said what he had thought up before.
The general idea is that he is alone. His home was originally in the north, and it was not easy to live in the harsh environment of the north. Hearing the merchants say that the south is prosperous, he followed to the south and wanted to settle down in the south. As soon as he arrived here, his luggage was stolen, and he was penniless, so he wanted to go up the mountain to hunt some game and sell it for some silver money. Who knew that he was trapped on the mountain by the rainstorm and was accidentally buried.
When Grandpa Chang heard it, he sighed, knowing that he had nowhere to go now, and said enthusiastically: "You can rest assured here to recover from the injury, and then plan well after the injury is healed. You are still young, and the days to come are still long."
Yu Qingze nodded again and again and said yes.
When Grandpa Chang and Chang Hao collected the millet, dinner was ready.
Chang Hao seemed very excited. After washing his hands, he couldn't wait to pull Yu Qingze to sit on the stool, then took the empty bowl on the table and ran to serve the meal.
What about new rice!
delicious!
"This skin boy, I've been looking forward to this day for a long time. I've been thinking about this day since the millet first matured!" Grandpa Chang said to Yu Qingze with a smile while looking at his grandson.
Yu Qingze also smiled and said, "I understand."
Have roasted eggplant and fish for dinner. When Chang Le put the dishes on the table, Chang Hao had quickly filled four bowls of rice, the crystal full rice grains, the fragrance wafted out of the whole room, Chang Hao sniffed and swallowed.
But I can't eat it yet.
Yu Qingze was still a little puzzled, so he saw that Chang Le took another set of tableware and chopsticks, put a bowl of rice on it, put vegetables on it, put it on the offering table, and poured some wine into a small cup. Chang Hao went to the kitchen and lit three sticks of incense. After worshipping his parents, he inserted it into the incense burner.
The brothers finished the incense in a tacit agreement, and then returned to the dinner table.
Chang Hao looked at his grandfather with bright eyes.
Grandpa Chang smiled and announced, "It's time for dinner." He picked up his chopsticks and put a big chopstick of fish meat for Yu Qingze, and then put fish meat for Chang Le and Chang Hao, and then he ate it by himself.
When Grandpa Chang moved his chopsticks, Chang Le and Chang Hao picked up their bowls and started to eat.
Each of the four of them sat on a stool, tasted the new rice of the year in a very pleasant atmosphere, and enjoyed the joy of harvesting.
Yu Qingze ate his first meal in another world.
The rice is very fragrant, but the taste of the dishes... Well, it can only be said that it is very general, not to mention the eggplant, it is just boiled in water. The fishy smell of the dish was not removed. With Yu Qingze's professional chef level, he knew for sure that there were no seasonings to remove the fishy smell.
It seems that they can take good care of their taste buds and stomach when they are recovering here? Yu Qingze secretly thought about the first thing he could repay the Changle family.
After dinner in the evening, Yu Qingze chatted with Grandpa Chang and Chang Hao, and he finally figured out his previous doubts.
In this world, there are no women, only men. Men are divided into men and brothers, with the red mole between the eyebrows as the main distinguishing sign. Men are usually tall and burly, and although my brother is also a man, he is weaker than men in terms of body size and strength, but he has a special ability to give birth to children!
Chang Hao is a little guy, and his brother Chang Le is a brother.
Yu Qingze also finally understood what the middle-aged man meant when he said Chang Le was getting older. If the role of a brother is equivalent to a woman on earth, according to the normal marriage age of an ancient woman between 14 and 18 years old, Chang Le is 22 years old, which is really an older brother.
However, in Yu Qingze's view, 22 years old is just the age of graduating from college, so she is young.
He felt the wonder of this world. Especially for a gay, this is really a friendly and beautiful world.
The author has something to say: Yu Qingze: Those who want to catch him must first grab his stomach! Hunter plan, start!
Chang Hao: Come on, come on, spread the flowers~~
