Chapter 19 Blind Date
Ang Lee sighed, he was wondering why Zhou Xiang hadn't come to him yet, because according to Zhou Xiang's condition yesterday, he should have come to ask Ang Lee early on how to make bows and arrows?
But now Ang Lee has eaten, and he has not seen the shadow of the tenth uncle yet.
Just when Ang Lee was confused, Aunt Xue on the side laughed and said, "Young Master...you can't wait for Xiao Shi today...!"
"Ah...Why..." Ang Lee was a little surprised.
"Because Xiao Shi is going to have a blind date today, not only Xiao Shi, Lao Ba, Lao Jiu... but also Lao Fourth... and Lao Fourth will have a blind date... Four girls will come to our Zhangjia Village later."
After Aunt Hu finished speaking, Ang Lee instantly became interested and said, "Is it true or false?"
"It's true... the third wife has been running around this matter. Should you wait and see the new wife?" Aunt Xue said with a smile.
"Of course I'm going... This is a big event in the village. Should we treat the girls well today?" Ang Lee asked in a spirit.
"That's certain. Our Zhangjia Village is not like before now. We are ready for today's meat, so we will definitely let the new wife eat full...!"
Aunt Hu and Aunt Xue told Ang Lee for a time and then left in a hurry because there were a lot of things to do today.
....................................
In this way, it was soon ten o'clock in the morning, and it was about nine o'clock. Zhang Hu, Xue Ding, Meng Ke and Zhao Qing who were going up the mountain came back at the junction. What was delightful was that they actually hunted a deer.
If you hadn't seen a crossbow before, you would shoot a deer with one arrow, even if you hit it, because the power was too small, the deer would not only not die, but would also leave quickly because of pain.
Now it’s very different. Now, with an arrow passing through the deer’s neck, the deer can’t die anymore.
"Little Deer Deer..." Ang Lee looked at the sika deer in front of him with some regret.
However, Zhang Hu, Xue Ding and Meng Ke were happily busy sawing the antler on the deer head. While sawing it, Zhang Hu looked at Li An happily and said: "Young Master's body is always colder than others. The doctor said that this is too weak. Today I caught this wild mountain deer. This antler is a big tonic. I will be soaked in water for the young master to make soup...!"
"Haha..." Ang Lee didn't say anything, Meng Ke smiled and said, "Brother, don't worry. As long as we have such a crossbow in our hands, there will be more deer antlers in the future, and the young master will be in a hot body."
After saying that, Meng Ke laughed, smiling while looking at Qing'er not far away.
But before he could laugh a few more times, Zhang Hu slapped her in the face and said, "What nonsense... hurry up and saw it for me..."
After the deer antler was sawed, Zhang Hu couldn't wait to ask his wife to make soup for Ang Lee. To be honest, Zhang Hu and others are really good to Ang Lee than their son.
It was about 11 o'clock, and the blind date meeting in Zhangjia Village began. At this time, Ang Lee, Qing'er, Zhang Lin, Zhang Sen and others... were all laughing and standing in the distance to see the situation here.
At the door of Zhang Hu's house in Zhangjia Village, Zhao Qing, Lao Ba Le Jinnan, Lao Jiu Li Shaoyang, Lao Ten Zhou Xiang all wore the best down jackets and stood honestly at Zhang Hu's door waiting for the girl who was about to come for a blind date.
At first, Ang Lee was a little unbelievable about the word blind date appeared in ancient times. After all, the etiquette and law of women in ancient times were very harsh. However, Ang Lee did not expect that this was the Tang Dynasty, which was the most tolerant era, and the Qinling Mountains were relatively remote, so women were more free.
It was about 11:30, Ang Lee saw a group of people coming from the entrance of Zhangjia Village, about ten, including men and women. He entered Zhangjia Village under the leadership of a relatively strong woman.
Seeing the strong woman, Aunt Hu and Zhang Hu immediately smiled and greeted her.
Following Xue Ding, he also gave Zhao Qing and others a kick to each of them, which made these people more energetic. What scared Ang Lee was that the women who came here were too young.
Ang Lee looked carefully and saw that there were some women who came here for blind dates. Almost all of them were girls, and they were basically around 14 to 16 years old. You should know that the tenth old Zhou Xiang in Zhangjia Village is almost thirty years old.
However, only Ang Lee was surprised, while Zhang Hu and others thought it was normal. You should know that this is an ancient and modern society, especially in first-tier cities like Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, there are many young men and girls who are not married in their thirties.
In rural areas, they are no longer as before. They are about twenty years old, and they will be urged to get married by their parents.
During the Tang Dynasty, when Wu Zetian was in charge of the world, as a woman, she naturally had a certain role model for women at that time, and her status was naturally improved compared to others.
But even if it improves, women get married at the age of 14, and women are always taking care of their husbands and children at home, and there are also many people who serve their parents-in-law.
According to our current situation, 14 years old is exactly the same age as a flower. Now, she is in junior high school, but girls at that time had to get married early.
As we all know, 14 years old is a turning point in education. As long as they are educated properly, they will not go astray after they become adults.
In ancient times, people grasped this point and were good at education that allowed them to get married at the age of 14. If they were a few years later, once girls had their own ideas, it would be difficult for them to change.
In ancient times, every household had at least three or four children, and it was a good family to be able to eat enough. At that time, there were wars or turmoils at all times, and they married their daughter early. On the one hand, they could save food for the family, and on the other hand, if they encountered turmoil or bandits entered the village, they would save the bandits from ruining their daughter.
In addition, the medical measures in ancient times were a thousand miles apart from the present. At that time, a small fever might have killed someone. Married as a woman at the age of 14, she would have a lot of money for her husband's family and do her duty.
At that time, the court also advocated that women marry early. The younger the age, the more likely they are to get pregnant, the more opportunities they will have for having children. Once there are more children, the population will increase. As the saying goes, more people will have more power.
Of course, although Ang Lee was a little surprised, he was not so stupid that he rushed over to stop this blind date. The same thing is said, this is ancient times, Ang Lee would not use modern requirements to demand ancient times, and Ang Lee would only enjoy seeing it.
Unlike other time travelers, Ang Lee believes that existence is reasonable. On the contrary... if you use modern requirements to solve this era, it is actually an unreasonable one.
The blind date started... It was just said that it was a blind date, but it was not a blind date at all. Although it was possible to meet, neither the man nor the woman spoke, especially these girls, who followed their parents and their families throughout the whole process.
Zhao Qing and others didn't say anything, all lowered their heads very low, showing a shy expression. They used to say that people who were not married were children, and that was really the case, so those who spoke were Zhang Hu, Aunt Hu and others... Of course, it would be best if they didn't say anything, so when everyone arrived, Zhang Hu directly ordered the banquet.
On the table of meat, vegetables and rice, Li Ang said that he also cooked about ten kilograms of venison.
This table directly shocked the family of the girl who came to date today. Finally, after eating the table, each of them gave him ten kilograms of millet, saying that it would not matter if he didn't like it. When he came today, he was all guests.
Also, if you like it, Zhangjia Village doesn’t want a penny of dowry from the woman’s family, but instead gives the other party a ten-ton gift.
Zhangjiacun's strength is almost certain to win this blind date, but Ang Lee did not expect that this blind date caused a storm.
