Chapter Thirty-Three (Red Ticket)

At dawn, Lu Qi got up early and went to the military camp training ground. When he left home in the morning, he told his mother that he would take time to go to Wangjiangbao today and suggested that his mother did not have to invite matchmakers in the city. It would be better to go to Wangjiangbao in person to invite Zhou Yueer's mother as a matchmaker. After becoming a member of Mr. Zhou's house, he could give Mr. Zhou a more grateful matchmaker gift. After hearing this, his mother was very willing and waited for Lu Qi to pick her up at home.

Lu Qi arrived at the training ground of the military camp. The hour of Mao was about to end. He announced that the military training program of the day was still the training rack of yesterday. It was only changed from thirty hits to fifty hits qualified. He also announced in public that the ten commanders had the right to be in wartime teams. He could lead and control the designated soldiers and brave soldiers at any time at any time under his order. After the announcement, he immediately ordered the ten commanders to be responsible for the training of nine soldiers. He left the military camp in the name of returning to the city to report his duties.

When he left the military camp, he took off his official clothes and returned to the city to hire a car to pick up his mother and Ning'er. He was alone in the car and left the city. The driver didn't dare to take on the business. The reason was naturally because there were bandits outside the city, and only a large number of people dared to leave the city. Lu Qiliang dared to refuse to follow the official position.

It was not far from the county town to Wangjiang Fort. The coachman was afraid of being a bandit and was rushing to drive. The more he was afraid of meeting ghosts, he would hit ghosts. When the car was seven or eight miles away, more than a dozen men appeared in front of him and blocked the way. Lu Qi saw that the people blocking the road were messy and holding messy weapons in his hands. The only thing that was the same was that everyone was wrapped in a green scarf on his head.

"It's a blue head." The coachman whispered in horror, but did not dare to stop or turn around, and saw him coming forward.

Lu Qi was stunned. The last time he went back and forth was very safe, but today he met a bandit. He glanced coldly and had a clear idea in his heart. These bandits were obviously a mob. Judging from the weapons they took, you would know that they were not stronger than ordinary soldiers. Then go.

Lu Qi drove his horse forward with his legs, and pulled his long sword in his hand, rushing against the bandits with a brave momentum. The bandits were stunned when they saw Lu Qi rushed closer and exclaimed in a hurry. It was probably the first time he had met a brave cavalry general. When the sword flashed, a bandit screamed and hugged his head and fell down.

Lu Qi rushed over the bandit group and quickly pulled his horse back, with a long sword in his hand majestic and shouted: "The person who blocks his master will die, please dodge."

The bandit who screamed and fell to the ground was helped up by his companions. He saw that he was not injured, but his head was flat and bare, and Lu Qi's hair was peeled off by his scalp. When the bandits looked at each other, they knew they had encountered a hard time. The men showed mercy and cut a knife to warn him first. If they were not tactful, the next knife must be the neck. The bandits' leader made a quick decision and waved his hand to lead the crowd away.

As soon as the bandit left, the driver said pale face and kept saying God's blessing, then drove forward and quickly. Lu Qi and the horse turned around and continued to support the car, and safely arrived at Wangjiang Fort.

The car arrived at Mr. Zhou's house, and Mr. Zhou, his wife and daughter came out together. When Lu Qi saw his sister-in-law Ping'an, he felt relieved. The coachman also returned to normal and parked the car next to the door of Zhou's house to wait for it.

Zhou Yue'er helped Lu's mother into the Zhou family. Ning'er followed Lu Qi. After seeing the ceremony, she came into the hall and sat down. Lu's mother explained her purpose and asked Zhou's mother to be a matchmaker. Zhou's mother agreed happily and immediately asked Zhou Yue'er to go to the elder Zhou's mansion to invite Aunt Xin.

After Zhou Yue'er left, Lu's mother talked about family matters and mentioned the incident of encountering bandits. Lu's mother told Zhou's mother not to let Zhou Yue'er leave Wangjiang Castle. If you want to go back to the city, you must wait for Lu Qi to pick her up. If the Zhou family needs to go out of the fort, they should try to wait for Lu Qi to escort them. In the future, Lu Qi will come to the pharmacy in Wangjiang Castle in three or two days to see it.

Zhou's mother was repeatedly agreed by the police, and suddenly asked Lu Qi that the guards of the Guardian Army were the county lieutenant. It turned out that a soldier from Wangjiang Fort yesterday afternoon came to investigate and collect evidence to verify whether Lu Qi was the real county lieutenant of the government office. Mr. Zhou and his wife did not know the truth. Zhou Yue'er happened to ask at home. Zhou Yue'er knew about Lu Qi's appointment as the county lieutenant of the guardian Army. Although Lu's mother told him not to expose the information, the official family could not hide it. After the guards of the guards of the Warriors, they said nothing was wrong, but they were afraid that the bandits would pretend to affect the peace of Wangjiang Fort.

After hearing this, Lu's mother quickly explained that Lu Qi was appointed as the county lieutenant, but she was only a temporary guardian county lieutenant appointed by the government office, and was only responsible for escorting grain taxes. She said that Lu Qi had no roots in the officialdom, and this guardian county lieutenant was probably not responsible for a long time, so she did not want to cause trouble for the sake of the sacred sensation.

Zhou's mother nodded to express her understanding, but Zhou's father watched Lu Qi and said, "My nephew, the position of Guardian County Captain was appointed by the Governor of the Court's special junta, and it is also an orthodox court-ordered official. It is not a county that can be temporarily appointed. Nowadays, all counties have the position of Guardian County Captain, and some major counties have appointed as three. The responsibilities of Guardian County Captain are mainly to escort officials, food taxes and suppress bandits. Now bandit troubles are rampant, and the nephew is responsible for heavy responsibilities. When encountering problems, you must think more and not act impulsively."

Zhou's father's love words made Lu Qi feel warm and said in a harmonious voice: "I will remember my uncle's teachings, and I will be more cautious in my actions in the future and follow the strategy of not seeking merit but seeking nothing."

Zhou's father nodded and said, "It is correct for a nephew to act like this. Nowadays, there are many reasons for the rampant bandits. The county's military power cannot be wiped out at all. The nephew's focus should be on escorts. As long as the escort is not lost, it will not be guilty."

Zhou's father's words came to an eye and were very objective. Lu Qi nodded and said, "Tianfeng understood that the source of rampant bandit troubles was caused by the poor thalassin of civilians. Most bandits were forced to survive and entered the bandits. Lu Qi could not be wiped out at all, and he was unwilling to kill cruelly. He would only focus on escorting them in the future."

Zhou's father nodded with his beard, meaning that children can teach. He was a scholar and a juren who could see through the source of bandits and persuade Lu Qi to be an alien among the literati of the Tang Dynasty. In serious terms, he was considered a traitor who was a traitor.

During the family conversation, Zhou Yue'er came back and invited the happy Aunt Xin. Lu's mother and Lu Qi were able to come to Wangjiangbao to propose marriage in person. Aunt Xin realized that what she expected had a result and was 90% sure that Xin Yun'er could become Lu Qi's wife.

Aunt Xin came, and Xin Yun'er followed her, staggeringly behind her. Her head was slightly lowered and there was a bright flush on her cheeks. She thought she was very shy.

After entering the hall, Aunt Xin first greeted Mr. Zhou and his wife. Because she was a concubine, she had to bow her head when she saw the male protagonist and wife of the Zhou family. She also greeted Mr. Zhou and his wife, and then asked Xin Yun'er to greet Mr. Zhou and his wife. Then she asked Xin Yun'er to greet Mr. Zhou and his wife. Xin Yun'er first knelt down to Mr. Zhou and his wife, then got up and bowed slightly to Lu's mother.

When Xin Yun'er came in, Lu Qi immediately looked at him nervously and saw that Xin Yun'er was wearing a light orchid-colored grenade dress, with a tall body, skin color as white jade, curved eyebrows and almond eyes, peach cheeks and cherry mouth. Her appearance was somewhat similar to Aunt Xin, but her temperament was beautiful and dignified, which was very different from Aunt Xin's gorgeous appearance.

After seeing each other, Lu Qi felt relieved and had a good first impression of Xin Yun'er. After Xin Yun'er saw the gift, he respectfully gave Aunt Xin a gift at the instructions of his mother. Aunt Xin received the gift with a smile.

After the reception, Aunt Xin left the guest seat and opposed Lu's mother. Xin Yun'er stood shyly on the head of the aunt. Zhou's mother smiled straight to the point. She first asked Lu's mother about her proposal, and then asked whether her husband was willing to get married. After they agreed in person, Zhou's mother asked about Aunt Xin's begging gifts. Aunt Xin generously asked the Lu family to decide. Lu's mother paid a thousand taels of betrothal gifts as required by Aunt Xin. The heavy betrothal gift surprised the Zhou family, thinking that Lu's mother really cared about marrying Xin Yun'er.

After the matchmaker made the ceremony, Mr. Zhou wrote two wedding books with a big pen, which was signed by Zhou's mother, Lu's mother and Xin's wife pressed their fingerprints to take effect. After each of them, Lu Qi first stood up to pay homage to Aunt Xin and called her aunt. Then Xin Yun'er knelt dignifiedly in front of Lu's mother and said to her mother-in-law. Lu'er smiled and asked Xin Yun'er to get up. Xin Yun'er stood up and then paid homage to her elder sister-in-law Zhou Yue'er. After paying Zhou Yue'er, Lu'er called Ning'er to kneel to see Xin Yun'er. When Ning'er knelt down and called her mistress, Xin Yun'er dignifiedly received the ceremony. He called Ning'er's name softly and made her stand up.

With the marriage letter as evidence, Xin Yuner has been the legal wife of the Lu family. In the future, it is just a ceremony to marry and have a wedding ceremony. If it is a concubine, in most cases, after writing the wedding letter on the same day, if the woman's family is very poor or refuses to buy a dowry, the man's family can take someone home directly. Taking a concubine is equivalent to buying a woman home, and tends to buy and sell slaves. In the future, the male protagonist dies, and the concubine's family must pay a reward to get the debt before they can get it back. The concubine's family does not return the gold medal. The man's family has the right to sell the person seven days after the deceased master is buried.
