I tried my best to help Zulong, and finally got my wife

Zhang Han has always wanted to serve under Zhang He, but he has never had the chance. Last time he helped Lord Hou capture Han Yu and Jade Tiger, the fourth son of South Korea. Although they did not see Lord Hou, they got benefits.

"The last general has met Lord Hou. Congratulations to Lord Hou on his triumphant return."

Zhang He glanced at the captain in front of him, but he didn't recognize the man in front of him.

"you are?"

Zhang Han bowed and saluted, and said with a smile: "The last general, Zhang Han, is the captain of Xianyang City."

When Zhang He heard that this person turned out to be Zhang Han, a playful smile appeared on his face.

This kid is also a good character.

Historically, Qin II was able to last for two more years because of this famous general at the end of Qin.

It's a pity that this kid was born at the wrong time. He met the Iron Triangle of the Great Qin Empire (Hu Hai, Zhao Gao, Li Si), and also met a group of monster-like enemies, such as Xiang Yu, Liu Bang, Han Xin and so on.

Now I finally found you. I have been inquiring and looking for this kid before, but I didn't expect to become a captain.

The young man is doing well!

"So it's Captain Zhang Han!"

Zhang Han hurriedly laughed and said, "The last general was once a subordinate of Lord Hou!"

Oh?

But Zhang He recalled for a long time that the captain who was able to guard Xianyang City should also be a figure with great military exploits.

This kid has worked with him before, but he doesn't have any impression?

"Two years ago, Lord Hou conquered the Xiongnu in the north. The last general was still a small centurion at that time. Later, when he conquered Zhao, the last general failed to follow Lord Hou to destroy Zhao. He was guarding the mouth of the tiger at that time. It is really a pity in life. "

Zhang He nodded, so it was so strange that he had to recognize him.

The centurion in the army couldn't see himself at all, and he couldn't see the centurion either!

"The end general was transferred from Yanmen County to Xianyang last year for the funeral. After the funeral, he was going to follow Lord Hou to go to the west to conquer the Yue clan. However, his mother was seriously ill, so he had to be a captain guarding the city gate in Xianyang City."

"This time, the last general was going to follow Lord Hou to the state of Chu, but my father was seriously ill, and he missed a good opportunity to serve the country..."

Zhang Han said with a look of regret.

Zhang He said with a smile: "No matter what position you are in, you are working hard to build a better Daqin. This is nothing to regret. There will be more opportunities to go out in the future."

"As the saying goes, filial piety comes first in everything! You should spend more time with your parents."

Zhang He suddenly remembered that Xianyang City was under martial law again, so he asked, "By the way, why is Xianyang City under martial law?"

Zhang Han was suddenly filled with righteous indignation, and he clenched his fists and said, "The damn remnants of Zhao's rebellious party have started to stir up trouble in Xianyang City again. Just two days ago, they assassinated Prime Minister Wang Wan and set fire to South Street, killing and injuring more than [-] people. .”

"However, fortunately, the prime minister was out of danger. Although he was stabbed, his life was saved."

"It's just that the more than [-] people who were killed or injured were all the female relatives of Daqin nobles and officials. They also burned down a street in South Street, and even the Daqin Restaurant and Perfume Shop disappeared..."

"What, the perfume workshop was burned down?"

"How about the purple girl?"

Zhang He's heart skipped a beat, his expression changed suddenly, he grabbed Zhang Han's collar and roared immediately.

If Zi Nu is killed, I will slaughter Mrs. Zhao!

Zhang Han was taken aback by Zhang He's sharp eyes, and quickly said: "The perfume shop was burned, but some maids died, and the owner of the perfume shop is fine!"

Zhang He slowly let go of the frightened Zhang Han, his face was as cold as frost, and his heart was filled with anger.

"Get on your horses and follow this general into the city!"

Zhang He got on the horse, and the others got on the horse at the same time, rushed into the city, and headed home.

"Remnants of the Zhao Kingdom, you have offended Lao Tzu..."

Although his fiancée is fine, the perfume shop is gone.

All Zhang He's belongings were handed over to his fiancée Zi Nu, but Zi Nu put all his belongings into the perfume workshop.

Now a big fire, all gone!

Now he can't even get married.

Damn the remnants, I have worked hard for three years, just waiting for this day, you shattered my dream.

If I burn my money, I will make you die.

Zhang He and others beat their horses and ran wildly all the way. There was a lot of jumping on the road, and passers-by were cursing, but the patrolling army saw that it was Zhang He and quickly hid aside, pretending not to see it.

This guy came here with merit, whoever stops it will be unlucky!If you don't do it well, you will break your leg.

After Zhang He came to the house, Zi Nu was already waiting at home.

Seeing that Zhang He was already standing in front of her, Zi Nu didn't speak for a long time, but her eyes were slightly red, and tears were rolling in her eyes.

In the end, it finally exploded, and he threw himself into Zhang He's arms aggrieved. There was a burst of pear blossoms and rain, and he cried so much!

She felt that the only way to make her feel better was to cry now!

"I'm useless, I'm useless, I didn't even keep my home..."

"The perfume shop was burned down by the remnants of the rebellious party, and they even poured dirty water on you..."

"Our money is all invested in the perfume workshop! Zhang He, it's all my fault..."

"Don't cry, I know all these things, the remnants of evil caused chaos, even the prime minister was assassinated, you are lucky to be alive, those things outside of your body are nothing to worry about, if you burn them, you will burn them..."

Zhang He hugged his fragrant fiancée tightly, but he didn't feel angry at all. Instead, he hugged him even tighter as if enjoying himself.

He gently patted his fiancée Zi Nu on the back, smiled and comforted him: "As long as you are safe and sound, this is a great thing. Even if Xianyang City is burned down, I can rebuild it."

Purple Girl: "..."

"Don't cry! Look, your face is full of tears."

"The perfume shop is gone, let's start over."

"Lao Tzu once said that misfortune is the source of good fortune, and misfortune is the source of good fortune. The perfume shop is gone, and our money is gone. It's not a problem. As long as the people and craftsmanship are there, we can make money back."

"Isn't this loss a good thing?"

"You have to know that we have too much money, which is not a good thing. If we are so rich, people will be jealous. I think this time the burning is good, the burning is wonderful, and we will be screaming..."

puff!

Zi Nu couldn't hold back, she burst into tears suddenly burst out laughing.

But she just felt distressed, it was [-] gold, and Zhang He paid for it with his life, and half of her life savings were burned away.

In fact, Zhang He also felt distressed in his heart!

Who the hell doesn't love money, if you have money, you are a master, if you don't have money, you can't move an inch.

This is always the truth.

"Zhang He, but my dowry is gone, so I can't marry you, woo woo woo..."

When Zi Nu thought of the dowry, she felt both resentful and sad, and then she cried again.

"dowry?"

This can't help evoking Zhang He's memories of his marriage concept in his previous life.

In Zhang He's memory, dowry and betrothal gifts are unavoidable customs for young people to get married, since ancient times.

But in later generations, the concept of equality seems to have disappeared, and the bride price is getting higher and higher. When meeting a conscientious woman's parents, they even marry some as dowries. After young people get married, their lives are better.

When encountering a greedy woman's parents, the dowry can be ignored.

Especially in some poor places, it is called sky-high price gifts, which can easily cost 10,000+, hundreds of thousands, or even millions, everywhere.

Dowry is not a big deal, buying a house in the city (and a house in the school district), buying a car, buying three gold pieces, one silver piece, and a diamond ring, that would kill the man's family.

After young people get married, they become slaves to pay their debts. It is better not to marry.

Some married people have become DINKs and dare not have children, because after they are born, they have to live the same life as them, so it is better not to have children.

There are countless such things that happened around Zhang He in his previous life, and there are many people who even died because of the bride price.

In the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods, there was also the custom of dowry and dowry, but the dowry and dowry were equal. The dowry from the husband's family and the dowry from the woman's family were even more than the dowry from the husband's family.

This is the etiquette of this era, a deep-rooted concept, and a social rule.

(A long-winded sentence: There are two main purposes of dowry in ancient times.)

(One is as a gift in return for the dowry. After the husband’s family makes the engagement, the woman’s family must return a dowry that is equal to or even higher than the dowry in order to show that they and the husband’s family are of equal strength and that they are not selling their daughter.

The second is dowry as the woman's personal property. The woman's family hopes that her daughter will have a secure life in the future. The amount of dowry also symbolizes the woman's status in her husband's family.

The things for dowry are even more varied.

Especially nobles, when they dowry, they have to dowry personal maids and servants, followed by gold and silver jewelry, furniture, daily necessities, and some even dowry shops, houses, land, etc. )

Zhang He feels that the customs of this era are better.

After all, two people get married to live a life.

All the money was given to the woman's family, and then I lived a life of shit, either scolding every day, or on the way of scolding, coming and going, and another divorce case going to court.

Chapter 427 Zhang He: Your Majesty, I'm Here to Give You a Gift

Zhang He looked at his fiancee, Zi Nu, and said with a smile, "Why do you want a dowry? Could it be that if you come to my house, I can still starve you?"

"I am the Marquis of the Great Qin Dynasty. Even a year's salary is enough for us to live for several years. What's more, your husband and I are so good at doing business, why can't I get money?"

Zi Nu gave Zhang He a blank look, and said aggrievedly: "Your salary has been withheld until ten years later!"

Zhang He: "..."

"If your dowry is gone, it will be gone... Mr. Yuezhang has been an official for so many years, he must have saved up a dowry for you, and he still expects us to provide for the elderly. Can he not give us money?"

Zi Nu's eyes suddenly lit up.

That's right, her father must have saved enough dowry for herself, and when her father returned from Chu State, she would go to ask him about it.

When other people marry their daughters, their parents pay the dowry. How can anyone accumulate the dowry by themselves?

Parents prepare a dowry, isn't this a matter of course!

Zi Nu looked at Zhang He, sighed again, and said, "But I don't even have your betrothal gift, so what are you going to offer to my family?"

Zhang He: "..."

"Don't worry, I'm the Marquis of Daqin, and I've made great achievements in battle. It's not easy to borrow money? The king wants to give the marriage in person. Could it be that he doesn't pay, and the betrothal gift is less, so he can live off his face?"

Zhang He suddenly remembered that he still has a small treasure house!

"I forgot to tell you, I still have some good things hidden in the study, so I'll take you to see them..."

Zhang He took the hand of his fiancée Zi Nu, and the two went all the way to the study, and pushed open a bookshelf, behind which was an iron door.

After opening the iron door, Zhang He lit a candle, and the room was as bright as day in an instant.

The room is not big, about fifty square meters, surrounded by bookshelves, but the bookshelves are not books, but full of strange things that do not exist in this world.

"What is this, that it is packed in such exquisitely crafted glass? And this tall cup is actually colored glass?"

"My God, there is a set of luminous cups here?"

"Such a big night pearl?"

"Pepper? And cinnamon, so much spice that you're still dusting here?"

"What is this? A bowl? It doesn't seem like a bowl, it's so delicate, it's not something that mortals should have..."

"Zhang He, such a big pair of beautiful jade..."

……

Zi Nu looked at the items on the shelf, just like Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden, yelling non-stop.

Zhang He grabbed a bottle of [-] Lafite, opened it, found a goblet, poured out the scarlet red wine, and said with a smile, "Let's have a glass first."

Zi Nu was completely stunned, as if he had entered another world.

These things are sky-high prices.

She too had seen the world, but never seen these things.
