Chapter Eighty-Three: The Marquis's Guard of Honor (Second Watch)
After Xu Erniang's explanation, Chen Ying finally understood that the so-called pawn wife is to pawn the daughter-in-law to others, and after giving birth to a child, the wife will be returned.
What makes Chen Ying even more incredible is that the pawn's wife is actually legal.
This situation is similar to surrogacy in later generations. As long as you are willing, there is nothing wrong with it. Of course, this price is much cheaper than taking a serious wife. Throughout the ages, getting married has been a very large expense. In the future, when marrying a wife, a house is a must-have, and it is very difficult to get married without a house. In this era, housing is not a must-have, but field is the first condition. Without a field, it is difficult to get married. However, those who have land and rich people can have wives and concubines, and poor people can only fight singles.
As the saying goes, there is always a place where the sun doesn't shine. In dark places, there is always sin, in fact, although the pawn wife is unacceptable, but compared to the pawn wife, there is a more disgusting companion wife. The so-called companion wife is that several partners spend money together to marry a wife and share it. Although this is contrary to human morality, China has always been particular about the people, and the people do not sue the officials and do not hold them accountable.
Hearing this, Chen Ying was only surprised at first, but gradually turned into anger.
Yu Zhengyang stretched out his hand and grabbed Zhang Yanyu's collar and said: "Your mother-in-law looks okay, but there is no meat, I have already found a good buyer, if you nod, we will be cleared......"
Zhang Yanyu's face was pale, and he looked indignant: "Return the lady...... Give me back my mother! ”
"Give back your mother's shit!" Yu Zhengyang picked up his fist and hit Zhang Yanyu in the face.
The two idlers on the left and right were holding Zhang Yanyu, and Zhang Yanyu couldn't move. If Yu Zhengyang's punch is smashed, Zhang Yanyu's face will definitely bloom.
Chen Ying yelled, "Stop! ”
The idler standing on the left with Zhang Yanyu scolded: "Who the hell has a rotten crotch of his pants, revealing you as a bird?" Dare to take care of our Yu Ye's gossip ......"
"It's me!" Chen Ying pushed away the crowd and squeezed in front.
When the idler saw Chen Ying, his face changed greatly.
Although Chen Ying is thin, but the clothes on his body are extraordinary, although the Tang Dynasty does not restrict merchants from wearing silk like the Ming Dynasty, but like Chen Ying, he wears Xuanxi court boots on his feet, which can only be worn by officials or nobles above the fifth grade. Otherwise, it is a crime for ordinary people to wear court boots.
Yu Zhengyang turned around and looked at it and found that it was Chen Ying. The originally indignant face was immediately filled with smiles: "Little one to meet the martial arts marquis, Hou Ye Wan'an!" ”
Chen Ying ignored Yu Zhengyang, but set his eyes on Zhang Yanyu. Last year, he had already met Zhang Yanyu who was forced to pay a debt by Yu Zhengyang, and he came forward to repay it for Zhang Yanyu at that time, and clearly warned Zhang Yanyu not to borrow usury from Yu Zhengyang, but Zhang Yanyu did not listen.
From the perspective of a bystander, Zhang Yanyu is indeed pitiful, and the so-called poor people must have something to hate. Chen Ying didn't know what to say about Zhang Yanyu.
"Five dollars!" Chen Yingchong Yu Zhengyang said: "The Martial Arts Marquis Mansion knows, right?" Send someone to withdraw money from Benhou! ”
Chen Ying didn't even have the interest to look at Zhang Yanyu. Because Zhang Yanyu is not bad in nature, but he has a reliable Lao Tzu.
After speaking, Chen Ying turned around and left the Xu Family Inn and walked towards the Martial Arts Marquis's Mansion.
When Chen Ying left the Xu Ji Inn, he didn't think that he still had an account. Walking out of the Xu Ji Inn, Chen Ying remembered that the account had not yet been settled, and was about to turn back, but when he saw Xu Erniang coming in a hurry, Chen Ying said a little embarrassed: "Shopkeeper Xu, I'm very sorry, Chen Mou ......"
"It's okay!" Xu Erniang said cautiously: "Can Chen Langjun help the slave family?" ”
"I don't know what difficulties the shopkeeper has?"
Xu Erniang sighed and said, "It's the slave's brother!" ”
"You mean Xu Jingzong?" Chen Ying asked in surprise: "Didn't he drive in Lianzhou?" Why did he go back to Chang'an? ”
"Chen Langjun doesn't know!" Xu Erniang said: "Brother Lianzhou's is just a fictitious position, there is no real shortage, he has been looking for a way around for the past six months, and he has been illegal, if the whole thing borrows alcohol to kill his sorrows, the whole person is about to be wasted!" ”
Hearing this, Chen Ying was secretly happy in his heart. Chen Ying was most distressed that he didn't have a useful strategist to take advantage of him for long-term planning. Although Xu Jingzong has a bad reputation, it is undeniable that Xu Jingzong is very talented, and Wu Zetian can ascend to the throne, in addition to his own wisdom and talent, it is also inseparable from Xu Jingzong's strong support.
I didn't expect Xu Jingzong to be so down-and-out, if he was kind to Xu Jingzong at this time, it would be easy to get Xu Jingzong's help, at least something big could be expected.
Chen Ying thought for a while, and said without hesitation: "Shopkeeper Xu, please wait a while, and then go to see Brother Ling when Chen is a little ready!" ”
Chen Ying did not immediately go to Xu Jingzong's residence, but prepared to set up the honor guard of the Marquis of Wugong.
Since Chen Ying was promoted from the Bo of Xiuwu County to the Marquis of Wugong County, in addition to rewarding the goldfish bag, Chen Ying also rewarded a set of marquis dependents, but Chen Ying never used it.
As a sixth-class founding county marquis, Chen Ying, who relied on the team, was not raised in the mansion. However, there is money to rent, Chen Ying waited for Mo for half an hour at the Xu Ji Inn, and a mighty guard of honor came blowing.
Walking in the front, is the six lines of honor guard leader, a total of eighteen people, including two gold and copper leaf section, four spears, four leopard tail guns, two red door flags, two black door flags, the center is surrounded by a blue background red characters Da Xuan, on which is written in the official script of Dou Da: "Wugong County Hou Chen" five big characters.
Da Shen waved in the wind, showing to Li Shu, the people of Chang'an City who were watching on the side of the road, that he had Chen Ying's noble status. At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, there were many nobles and nobles, Chang'an was the imperial capital of the Tang Dynasty, and the people were quite knowledgeable, and a sixth-class founding county marquis was a great man for the people. But for the princes of Chang'an who are as many as dogs, and the princes are everywhere, it is really nothing.
However, Chen Ying's martial arts marquis has been accumulated bit by bit based on his military exploits, and those hereditary nobles are different, which represents Chen Ying's martial arts.
The surrounding people discussed: "This is the Chen Wugong who defeated the Turks four times in a row?" ”
"Not bad!"
"That's him!"
"Alas, who is the pretty lady next to him? Is it his wife? ”
", Widow Xu doesn't know each other anymore?"
