solved the problem of going to school in winter, and the next day, Xu Xingxia took the time to go home and tell his family the good news. As a result, when I returned home, I found that something was wrong. The originally lively house seemed quiet, and there was no one. Looking closely, there is really no one. There are still uneaten sweet potatoes on the table, and there is a lot of red paper next to them, but there is no one.

Xu Xingxia couldn't help but be taken aback, where did the whole family go? It can't be kidnapped, right? Then he pinched his face and smiled dumbly. Just kidding, in his own land, his family was kidnapped, is it really when he and the white army do not exist? They must not know what the collective is doing. Looking at those red papers, it seems that there is a happy event?

Picking up an arm-sized sweet potato, Xu Xingxia looked for it while eating it at home to see if there was anyone else. As a result, after going around the house, he finally found his father. Xu Fuqing is also funny, and he is practicing Qin dialect in the back garden. Since there was no time to clean up, the back garden of the Xu family was overgrown with weeds, and it looked like a mass grave, no wonder Niuniu said that there was a ghost cry when she slept at night. It is estimated that it is the sound of the night cat's spring.

Xu Fuqing's legs have not healed yet, he can't do heavy work, he can't move around, he stays at home all day, and it's quite boring, so he asked someone to teach him to sing the Qin dialect. Qin Yan is a thing that is more rough and bold, and it is also more exercised, so you only need to open your throat and shout. The military households in Ningxia Town can come to both hands. Xu Fuqing is also addicted these days, and if he has nothing to do, he just stays in the mass grave and exercises, and it does not affect other people, but it is also comfortable.

Xu Xingxia asked in wonder, "Dad, where have they gone?" ”

Xu Fuqing was practicing energetically, and he was disturbed by his son, so he couldn't help but feel a little regretful, he couldn't lift it in one breath, and his Qin tone was broken halfway through the singing. He sat down on the stone pier next to him and said casually, "Everyone went to the City God Temple to worship the gods." ”

Xu Xingxia oh for a moment, no wonder they were all gone, it turned out that he went to worship God. At that time, worshipping the gods, unlike later, women were not allowed to enter, and only men were eligible. The military families were poor, and when they worshipped the gods, they couldn't bring decent sacrifices, and they felt very faceless, for fear that the gods and goddesses would blame them, so they called the women to go and hid at home.

The women in the families of the military families do not have so many rules. Since the men were too shy to go, they fought for it. Anyway, if you have meat, you can put a piece of meat, and if you don't have meat, you can prepare a little rice ball rice ball. If you don't have rice balls, you can put a few pieces of sweet potatoes in them. All kinds of immortals also want to change their tastes. Therefore, at that time, most of the worshippers were women, and it gradually became a habit.

Around the City God Temple, there are many traditional places for juggling craftsmen, such as clay figures, sugar people, rock sugar gourds, Fushou paste (not opium), maltose, halp sugar, mille-feuille cakes, egg cakes, blind cakes and other snacks, which are also dazzling, and are the most popular among children. For the sake of the faces of the gods and goddesses, if their children are coquettish, most of them will buy a little. A little girl like Niu Niu is very active every time she worships God. They don't understand whether they are gods or not, they only know that when they worship God, they will have good things to eat.

The place of Weizhen Fort is small, and there are not too many places to get temples and the like, the city god temple is a hodgepodge, city god, three Qing, Buddha, Bodhisattva, Arhat, Guanyin...... It seems to have both. The gods from all walks of life sit in a row and eat fruits. You can worship one of them, you can choose a few, or you can worship all of them. In the past, there were still people who worshiped the emperor here, but it was later banned. Worship the emperor in the City God Temple, what is this called? It's just a mess!

Xu Xingxia checked his father's legs and found that the wound was slowly improving, and if there was no accident, it should be fine. He sat down opposite his father and said with a cautious face, "Dad, tomorrow, I'm going to send Dongzi to school." In the evening, my mother came back and asked her to help Dongzi pack up, and I will come back tomorrow morning to pick up Dongzi and go out. ”

Xu Fuqing said a little strangely: "No...... Can't get on? ”

Xu Xingxia said slowly: "It's not Wei Xue, it's the school that went to Shangqing Wangfu, the Xiguo Zijian." Yesterday, I got in touch with the people in Qingwangfu, and Dongzi can go directly to the school in Qingwangfu, and there is no need to go to Weixue. ”

Xu Fuqing was suddenly startled, and said in disbelief: "What? Guozijian? ”

Even if he can't read, he has heard of the name of the country's eunuch. For scholars, Taixue and Guozijian are the strongest existences. It's like the Governor's Office of the Five Armies in the minds of these military households, and it is the highest-level institution. In the understanding of ordinary people, the scholars who came out of Guozi Jian are all going to be big officials! Although there is an extra word "West" in front of Guozijian, it is Guozijian after all!

It's just that the origin of Guozijian is too big. Xu Fuqing couldn't believe that his youngest son could actually go to Xixi Guozi to study. If Xu Xingxia hadn't told him, he would have thought it was a dream. He muttered to himself, "Xiguo Zijian ...... Xia'er, what the hell is going on? King Qing's Mansion ...... with you"

Xu Xingxia said briefly that someone from Qingwangfu came to Qingwangfu yesterday.

After listening, Xu Fuqing seemed quite happy, and said a few good words in a row. The guards of King Qing's Mansion are much stronger than a small hundred households. Not to mention anything else, just fifty taels of silver per month will envy other people. Combined with the silver reward at the end of the year, there are nearly 1,000 taels of silver in a year. That's a lot of money.

In Ningxia Town, even if it is a deputy thousand households and the like, they may not have an income of thousands of taels of silver a year. Besides, there are a number of other. This article is the biggest. With the power and financial resources of the Qingwang Mansion, Xu Xingxia will benefit immensely if a little leakage comes out from the fingers. In Xu Fuqing's opinion, this is completely a golden strip!

After being happy, Xu Fuqing had forgotten what his eldest son had said before, and he said with great interest: "When will you leave?" When will you take office in Qingwangfu? ”

Xu Xingxia said: "I'll leave tomorrow!" I just went to Qingwangfu to report for duty! ”

Xu Fuqing suddenly remembered something, and said hesitantly: "Can you wait a few more days?" ”

Xu Xingxia asked a little puzzled, "Why wait a few more days?" ”

Xu Fuqing looked at him stunned, as if he felt that his eldest son's question was so strange. As a result, he saw his eldest son looking at him blankly. It was not easy for him to come to his senses. slapped his thigh hard, and subconsciously said, "Hey! Look at the father! I almost forgot about the big things! ”

Xu Xingxia said suspiciously: "Dad, what's wrong?" ”

Xu Fuqing said excitedly: "Da Chun is going to get married!" I forgot to tell you! ”

Xu Xingxia was speechless. You don't tell me about such a big thing as Tsubaki's marriage!

Xu Fuqing was in a good mood, and said with a happy smile: "It's all the rules you set!" No one is allowed to enter the barracks without your approval! Xiao Chun was going to look for you that day and tell you that Da Chun was going to get married, but as a result, when he saw the sentries outside your barracks, one by one they were more fierce than the other, and he didn't dare to go in when he saw the hair in his heart. ”

Xu Xingxia was secretly funny in his heart, is Dad complaining about my military camp? Those fierce sentinels were deliberately arranged by me. The barracks were originally a quiet place, idle people, etc., were not allowed to approach, and the sentinels were still ferocious. It's just that I didn't expect that Xiao Chun's courage was also a little smaller, and he was so frightened by the sentry that he didn't dare to approach. This guy is still a craftsman, it's really not good to go to the battlefield. He said casually: "When is the wedding scheduled?" ”

Xu Fuqing remembered this very clearly, and said affirmatively: "At the end of the month, May 28!" They are going to worship God today, just to inform the Bodhisattva of this auspicious saying, and pray for the Bodhisattva's blessing, good fortune, and smooth success. You don't know, your aunt was so sincere, she was busy for two days, got a pig's head, a sheep's head, and killed a big rooster, a duck, and a goose. In the evening you stayed for dinner, and it was hearty! ”

Xu Xingxia did the math and found that there were still several days to go, but he was not very anxious. However, after the wedding is tossed, there is probably no time for three or two days. The wedding of the Liu family is basically equivalent to the wedding of the Xu family, and the Xu family, when the time comes, most of them will be turned on their backs. It is estimated that Fuyuko is not available either. Among the people who are busy before and after, he is probably indispensable. He said, "Then I will only send Dongzi to school in June." ”

Xu Fuqing said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay to enroll in June." Ten years of cold windows, I said that I grew very long, and I didn't care about these days. If Dongzi really wants to be able to study, if he goes a few days late, he can become a talent after all. ”

Xu Xingxia nodded and didn't say anything more. According to his estimates, Fuyuko must also want to join in the fun. The relationship between the Xu family and the Liu family is really good, basically equivalent to a family. In the past, even Xu Fuqing was worried about Da Chun's marriage and when it would be resolved. Now, it's finally settled. It's really not good to forcibly take Fuyuko away at this time.

Of course, for children, the main reason for being reluctant to leave early is because of this wedding, all kinds of food are prepared more abundantly, and during this time, their children are really happy. Not to mention that it is good to eat three meals a day, even in normal times, it is also a constant snack. Who wants to walk away like this?

Since the craftsman's workshop started at night, Liu Guangliang and his two sons' wages were relatively generous. The father and son worked together to prepare enough for the wedding. The Xu family will naturally give a good gift. In addition, the two sisters, Chunlan and Qiulan, received a full 1,000 taels of silver from Zhu Yuzhi, so they naturally will not be stingy.

When Da Chun got married, each of them gave a gift of thirty taels of silver. The sum of the two is sixty taels of silver. This money alone is enough for the Liu family to have a beautiful scenery and a luxurious wedding. It just so happens that there is such a big mansion as the Xu family, and there is no problem with the layout of the new house. No wonder the Liu family wants to make a big deal.
