Fang Tianyou pouted and said: "Ben Shao is afraid of him, it's just that the two future brothers-in-law of the Fei family have to give face." ”

The servant slapped his forehead and said with a smile: "The little one forgot this, last time the lady had asked the matchmaker to bring a goose to the Fei family, and today she came to ask for her name in person, and it is estimated that she has already received the Geng post of the third girl of the Fei family." ”

In ancient times, marriage generally had to go through three books and six ceremonies, especially for large families, and every step was essential. The so-called six rites are: Nacai, asking for names, Najib, Nazheng, inviting dates, and greetings.

Nacai is the first step of marriage, that is, the man sends a matchmaker to the woman's house with all kinds of gifts, and after the woman agrees, the man will bring a goose to the door, which is the gift of Nacai.

Asking for a name is the second step of marriage, after the ceremony, the woman will give the matchmaker the name of the daughter and the birth date to the matchmaker to bring back to the man, so that the fortune teller can calculate whether the eight characters of the man and the woman are a good match.

Fang Tianyou said proudly: "Now the three girls of the Fei family have no father and no mother, and the family is all in charge of the stepmother Zhao family, and the Zhao family is a master who sees money, so it is certain to get Geng Ti." Hey, the dowry of 10,000 taels of silver, it is estimated that our family can take it out without blinking in this Leadshan County. ”

A slave next to him smiled and patted his ass and said, "Congratulations to the young master, congratulations to the young master, I will be able to hug the beauty soon." Tsk, I heard that the three girls of the Fei family were born with flowers and moons, and they were overwhelmed by the country and the city, and even the prince of Ning Wang was fascinated. For the sake of this daughter, the prince of Ning Wang even fought with that Xu Jin on the streets of Shangrao County, and was finally expelled from Shangrao County by Governor Sun and repatriated to the fiefdom of Nanchang. ”

Another servant slammed his tongue and said: "I said why is Xu Jin so arrogant, he still dares to rob women with the prince of King Ning, dare to have Governor Sun support him, and he is the protégé of Fei Ge Lao, even his mother-in-law is the righteous daughter of King Xing, and I am even a talent of Lianzhong Sanyuan, amazing!" ”

Fang Tianyou suddenly said unhappily when he heard this: "Otherwise, you think that Ben Shao would apologize so easily?" ”

The slave immediately laughed dryly and said, "Young Master, no matter how powerful Xu Jin is, the three girls of the Fei family who are charming are not the young master's women in the end." ”

Fang Tianyou suddenly showed excitement when he heard this, he had seen the three girls of the Fei family, strictly speaking, he had peeked at it, it was Fei Ruyi's stepmother Zhao who took him to the back house, and peeked a few times from a distance, it was indeed a charming beauty.

Thinking of this woman who even the prince of Ning and the talented Xu Jin had competed for, she would be included in her private house in the future, and Fang Dashao couldn't help but be complacent. It's a pity that Fei Ruyi is still keeping filial piety for his father, even if the marriage is decided, he will have to wait two years to get married, otherwise he will be able to marry this beauty home before the Chinese New Year this year.

At this time, the slave who was thrown by Erniu said very blindly: "Young master, I heard that the third girl of the Fei family secretly promised that Xu Jinfang that in order to prevent the prince of King Ning from killing Xu Jin, she actually lay on Xu Jin to protect him. Tsk, will the three girls of the Fei family already have a leg with Xu Jin? ”

Fang Tianyou's face suddenly darkened, and with a slap he slapped the slave to the ground, and scolded: "Shut your stinky mouth!" ”

The slave couldn't bear to slap himself a few times, and said with a smile: "The little mouth stinks, it should be beaten, the Fei family is a scholarly family, and the third lady of the Fei family knows books and etiquette, how can she do such an ugly thing." ”

Fang Tianyou snorted coldly with a calm face, this thing was still secretly happy that he was about to marry the third girl of the Fei family just now, but at this time, he was nervous, feeling that there was a danger of dyeing green on the top of his head, but at this time, Xu Jin appeared in Leadshan County again, and it seemed that he was going to visit the Fei family.

"No, there are many dreams at night, we have to settle things as soon as possible!" Fang Tianyou secretly thought in his heart.

Na Cai and ask the name are the first two steps of the six rites, so far the marriage contract is not really concluded, only after Najib and Na Zheng will complete the engagement, the so-called Na Zheng is commonly known as the excessive gift, the man will send the dowry and the letter of appointment to the woman's home, the woman will return a letter of marriage, which is equivalent to the completion of the engagement, recognized and protected by the law.

As long as you have the marriage certificate in hand, you can agree on a date to get married at any time!

……

Xu Jin and the others walked around the county town of Leadshan County, and after purchasing gifts, they went out of the city from the south gate and went straight to Chaijiabu, where the Fei family's house was located.

About half an hour later, the group came to the outside of the Fei family's manor, and Steward Zhou, who had already received the news, had already taken more than a dozen servants to greet him outside the village.

"Congratulations to the two young masters, congratulations to Gongzi Xu for winning the first place in the hospital trial, even the three yuan of small and medium-sized schools!"

As soon as the Fei brothers and Xu Jin and others got off the carriage, Steward Zhou hurriedly greeted them and saluted respectfully, and the servants of the Fei family also saluted and greeted each other, showing a good family education.

Xu Jin smiled and said one by one!

Steward Zhou instructed his subordinates to carry the luggage in the car, and welcomed Xu Jin and others into the village warmly.

The Fei family's manor covers an extremely wide area, the houses stretch over the entire mountain, the eldest Fei Dian's house is in the east, the second Fei Hong's house is in the middle, and the west is the third Fei Cai's house.

Xu Jin and Xie Xiaowan followed the Fei brothers into the middle house, and the luggage they carried was naturally sent to the residence.

Everyone sat down in the living room, and the servants served fragrant tea, and Fei Maoxian asked, "Steward Zhou, is my father at home?" ”

Zhou Heng shook his head and said, "The master is not here at the moment, I just sent the governor away not long ago, and I am afraid it will take an hour to return." ”

Xu Jin and the Fei brothers looked at each other in amazement, and Steward Zhou hurriedly explained: "It's Lord Wang Shouren, the governor of Southern Jiangxi!" ”

"What, Wang Shouren!" Xu Jin couldn't help but blurt out.

Fei Maoxian and Fei Maozhong glanced at Xu Jin strangely, not understanding why Xu Jin was so excited, and calling Governor Wang's name was really rude.

Xu Jin said embarrassedly: "I have admired Mr. Yangming for a long time, but unfortunately I missed it this time and couldn't meet him." ”

Fei Maoxian and Fei Maozhong couldn't help but be stunned, the former smiled: "I didn't expect Ziqian to be an admirer of Mr. Yangming!" My second brother and I had the privilege of listening to Mr. Yang Yang's lectures before, but unfortunately our qualifications were dull and we did not have a thorough understanding of Mr. Yang Ming's psychology. ”

Xu Jin is indeed an admirer of Wang Shouren, but what he admires is not Wang Shouren's academics, but Wang Shouren as a person.

The name Wang Shouren can be described as a big name, like thunder, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the crown of the Ming generation. The ancients regarded morality, meritorious service, and words as the three immortals, and Wang Shouren did all of them, and he is the only one who combines the three immortals in one, and is highly respected by the world.

When Xu Jin read history books in his previous life, he admired Wang Shouren very much, and felt that this guy was simply a god and an open-minded existence.

Take military talent as an example, Wang Shouren's fighting style is strange, he never confronts the enemy head-on, he always fights the east and the west, you go south, he goes to the north, and often makes the enemy dizzy.

And no matter how many times the enemy army outnumbered him, Wang Shouren dared to send troops, and he was also good at using tricks, digging pits, falsifying, and bluffing, and in the end, many people were scared away by his deception.

What is even more strange is that even if he has the advantage and surrounds the opponent, Wang Shouren never attacks easily, but traps the enemy inside, starves half to death, and then induces the enemy to break through and burrow into the ambush circle before launching a general attack. Basically, after these few moves, the gods can't resist it.

It is said that King Ning's rebellion was put down by this Wang Shouren, and it took less than two months before and after.

In addition to his military achievements, Wang Shouren's academic achievements are also dazzling, he broke through Zhu Xi's science and founded the "Xinxue", which still exerts its influence today.

Of course, as a materialist, Xu Jin is not interested in Wang Shouren's idealistic theory of "opening his eyes and closing his eyes".

Fei Maozhong said: "Didn't Mr. Yang Ming supervise the military affairs in Nangan to suppress bandits?" Why do you come to visit us at this time? ”

Steward Zhou said with a smile: "The bandits on the border of Southern Jiangxi have long been exterminated by Governor Wang, the previous month Governor Wang returned to Beijing to report on his work, and returned the flag of transfer to the Ministry of War. ”

Fei Maoxian said regretfully when he heard this: "We came back late!" ”

Steward Zhou said politely to Xu Jin: "The guest room is ready, Xu Gongzi and his wife have been traveling all the way, why don't you go to the residence to settle down and freshen up first?" ”
