Chapter 61: Cloth porridge

Views:

Ting Yu has been a little absent-minded today, and when buttoning Jiang Tangzhou, she even fastened it in the wrong position. Yan Qing saw it with sharp eyes, and teased her: "Where did sister Ting Yu's heart go?"

Ting Yu blushed, took a step back awkwardly, and said, "Don't make fun of me."

Jiang Tangzhou also laughed: "She was just teasing you normally, why did you react so strongly?"

"I don't think Grandpa doesn't like me anymore, I'm standing on Yanqing's side in everything!" Ting Yu said, curling her lips, "Ting Yu is no longer the little girl that Grandpa values most in his heart."

"You." Jiang Tangzhou shook his head, took a plum candy from Tingyu and put it in his mouth. Probably because he was going to go shopping with Yin Wenzheng today, he was in a particularly good mood, so he offered to mention something. , "I saw that Xie Yi came to look for you in the past few days, but you turned him away every time. Why, are you two at odds?"

Ting Yu hesitated a few times coyly, before finally making up her mind, she suddenly knelt down.

Yan Qing wanted to help her, but Jiang Tangzhou stopped her, sat down beside her, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"The day before yesterday, Xie Yi came to my room to look for me, saying yes... saying yes..." Ting Yu really made up his mind so hard that he said, "He said he wanted to marry me."

She finished speaking quickly, if it wasn't for Jiang Tangzhou's good hearing, she might not be able to hear clearly.

Jiang Tangzhou had expected this day a long time ago, so he wasn't too surprised. What's more, he had been thinking about when to organize the wedding banquet for Ting Yu, and felt that Xie Yi's stupid temperament would definitely not take the initiative to mention it. Unexpectedly, he also made a mistake. If he likes someone, he will be enlightened.

No, didn't Xie Yi propose to Ting Yu on his own initiative

"I heard your tone, it seems a little unhappy," Jiang Tangzhou teased, "Are you happy or not?"

"Master, don't make fun of me!" Ting Yu felt awkward at first, and then felt a little sad, "I don't know. I don't know if I should be with him or not. According to Daqin's rules, servants are not allowed to marry Otherwise, the servants in the mansion would leave the master's house to go to the husband's house, but Ting Yu didn't want to leave the master, Ting Yu... wanted to be with Xie Yi, but if he was with Xie Yi, he would leave the master, Listening to Yu would rather not be with him."

The place in Jiang Tangzhou's heart softened. He stretched out his hand and touched Tingyu's head, and said softly, "When did I treat you as a servant? You have always been my sister, and the rules of Qinguo are in your hands. I don't count on me."

Ting Yu sniffed and looked up at Jiang Tangzhou.

"Even if you are married to Xie Yi, you can come to me anytime you want. It's just that you can't do some jobs, so don't worry. Didn't Yan Qing be taught by you?" Jiang Tangzhou smiled, "Just tell me, Do you like him, are you willing to marry him?"

Ting Yu felt shy, he hesitated for a while before nodding his head and said: "Ting Yu, Ting Yu... yes."

"Then it's over." Jiang Tangzhou half-closed his eyes, chuckled a few times, and said, "In the barracks, I definitely can't give you too much, and when it's stable in the future, I'll give you another ten-mile red makeup, okay? "

Ting Yu nodded again and again: "I'm not in a hurry, I can do it later."

Ting Yu is not in a hurry, but Jiang Tangzhou is in a hurry. After all, he can probably guess what kind of ups and downs life will be for him in the future, and he is afraid that Ting Yu will be involved. It is better to solve her lifelong affairs first. Generally speaking, he felt more at ease when someone was protecting her and accompanying her.

"Yanqing," Jiang Tangzhou instructed, "you go to see the auspicious day later. It just so happens that we are going to go to the market today, so we will buy some things for getting married and settle this matter as soon as possible."

"yes."

...

All the dowry gifts that Xie Yi had prepared for Ting Yu's marriage were brought into Jiang Tangzhou's room. Two pairs of wild geese, all kinds of jade ornaments and gold, and one thousand taels of silver at the bottom of the box. Put it in the betrothal gift and gave it to Tingyu, not afraid that Tingyu would turn his back on him and make him poor and useless.

Although Jiang Tangzhou felt that Xie Yi was not good enough for his sister, he was a little moved by the sincerity of the other party.

The New Year's Eve was an auspicious day, and Jiang Tangzhou did not hesitate too much, so he directly set the time on this day. Coincidentally, Chinese New Year and drinking together were considered a great joyous event in the army.

As a result, Jiang Tangzhou and Yin Wenzheng needed to purchase more things.

The first thing was to prepare a dowry for Ting Yu, and pulled ten bolts of cloth and satin, all of which were of high-quality materials. To avoid suspicion, Ting Yu didn't come with her, and they were all styles that Yan Qing thought she would like.

Another eighteen pairs of earrings were ordered, with gold, silver and jade in equal numbers. After finalizing the style with the boss, Jiang Tangzhou realized that Yin Wenzheng, who had been standing by his side, had disappeared.

The next moment, Yin Wenzheng held a piece of fabric and gestured at Jiang Tangzhou's body, saying, "This color will definitely look good on you."

"what colour?"

Yin Wenzheng was still gesticulating seriously, and the boss beside him said with a smile: "Goose yellow. This young man's skin is fair, but it can also be matched."

"What kind of lining is it? In our family, people line clothes, not clothes line people."

"Yes, yes, the young master is right." The boss bowed again and again, "It's too small to talk too much."

"It's good-looking to make a pair of wide sleeves," Yin Wenzheng said, "Boss, how long will it take to make such a thing?"

"Three days."

Yin Wenzheng frowned, and took out three golden beans from his pocket: "Hurry up to work, can you get out in a day?"

"Three days is three days," Jiang Tangzhou is not a profligate prince, after all he is also very poor in Qin Kingdom, "Why waste that money to rush to work."

"I want to see you put it on earlier." Yin Wenzheng didn't listen to Jiang Tangzhou on this matter, and said directly, "Three days, okay?"

"Young master, don't worry, even if you leave our store alone, you will definitely drive this one out." The boss quickly stretched out his hand and took the three golden beans into his arms, smiling broadly. mouthed.

How did Yin Wenzheng think that the goose yellow color was good-looking, although it was a bit brighter, but Jiang Tangzhou's complexion was fair and pleasant, making people want to lean forward and take a bite.

Jiang Tangzhou didn't know that he was being targeted by Yin Wenzheng. After all, he couldn't see how tender and fresh the color was. He only thought that it might be a little brighter than the black, white and gray he usually wears.

After the three of them went to the place where incense candles were sold, they bought a few pairs of red candles, a few window grilles, and bought all the things that should be prepared for the wedding. Let the store find someone to send over at that time.

Although he was a bit tired after walking around for a day, Jiang Tangzhou was extremely satisfied in his heart. Ting Yu, who had been with him for so many years, wanted to marry as a woman. He said that it was impossible for him not to part with it at all, but more, it was for her feel happy.

Jiang Tangzhou had planned it long ago, and Ting Yu would marry her off as her own sister, so no one would dare to look down on her in the future.

Even though that Xie Yi didn't seem like a master who would have three wives and four concubines, Jiang Tangzhou still planned to find some time to beat him up and ask him to think about where the rain came from before doing anything.

Even Yin Wenzheng couldn't help laughing at him: "Why are you more verbose than an old woman? Are you not tired after thinking about so many things?"

"Of course I'm tired," Jiang Tangzhou said, "but I'm really happy in my heart."

"I'm so busy getting married, I don't want to experience it a second time in my life, but you seem like you've been beaten to death." Yin Wenzheng shook his head as he said.

"What do you mean, did you ever think about having a second experience?" Jiang Tangzhou glanced over without any intimidation, but Yin Wenzheng trembled, and subconsciously put down the things in his hands.

"I don't, I'm not," Yin Wenzheng directly denied three consecutive times, "I only remember Atang in my heart, how could I go to experience the second time?"

Jiang Tangzhou snorted twice, left him alone, and went to continue writing the word "囍" on the red paper.

In the next few days, Jiang Tangzhou was very busy.

It's been a long time since he's been so busy, but that kind of busyness doesn't mean that he can't do what he wants. Instead, he is filled with happiness and anticipation in his heart, so it is extraordinarily exciting.

He set up the auditorium for listening to the rain, and prepared everything, even the things for Yin Wenzheng to serve porridge. , led a dozen or so young soldiers from the barracks, and a group of people went to the porridge point in a mighty way.

The cloth porridge point is not far from the relief point. When you get closer, a very strong stench hits your face—it’s hard to describe the stench in words, like the rotten smell from the bodies of the living and the dead Jiang Tangzhou frowned calmly at the intertwined smell, and his heart sank a little.

Several soldiers shouted in front: "General cloth porridge, if you need it, please queue up to get it."

A group of people swarmed over and surrounded the small shed in an instant.

Yin Wenzheng fixed the small stool for Jiang Tangzhou, and said, "Just sit here and watch."

Jiang Tangzhou didn't speak. Hearing the noise outside and smelling the unpleasant smell, he didn't move for a long time.

The world seems to be divided into two parts, one part is reunited when the New Year's Eve is approaching, the whole family is happy, drinking wine and chatting, very happy. One piece is a world of ice and snow, sleeping in the open air, unable to eat a full meal, and has to watch relatives and loved ones around him starve to death one after another.

There is a long gully between the two blocks, and it seems that no matter how hard you step, you can't get through it.

Jiang Tangzhou found shamefully that he seemed to be living on the happy side.

But what is he capable of

Jiang Tangzhou still didn't care what Yin Wenzheng had said to him before he came, he stood up regardless, took the spoon from one of the soldiers, and said, "Let me do it."
