Generals take care of their children: The master mother leads the system to farm

People loved to join in the fun, and many people who had come out from all the streets and alleys gathered on both sides of the road to congratulate the groom to the guard of honor.

Li Changle had never seen the wedding scene of the ancients in person, so driven by curiosity, he lifted the curtain to watch.

"The groom is so handsome, I wonder where he comes from..." the old lady gossiped.

"You don't know? This man is not from our Li County, but from the neighboring county. It is said that he is marrying the daughter of a family in Liuzhuang, south of the city." The second aunt had obviously heard this gossip.

The other aunt was not to be outdone and revealed even more hard-core news, "You all don't know, let me tell you something, my cousin's daughter-in-law's cousin's aunt's nephew works in the county town of Danggui County next door, and the groom is a rich young man in that city, and he passed the imperial examination at a young age. This marriage has been full of twists and turns, and it's a miracle that it finally came together."

Don’t worry about whether what this aunt said is strange or not. Just the long chain of relatives such as cousins ​​is enough for the gossipy aunts around to talk about for a while.

The guard of honor passed by, leaving only the joy lingering in the ears from near and far.

Li Changle was not satisfied with what she heard, so she leaned out of the carriage and said, "Aunt, what kind of twists and turns are these? Can you elaborate on them?"

"Wow! Whose girl is this? She's so quiet, it's really scary."

The aunts who had gathered together were so busy gossiping that they didn't notice the carriage parked quietly beside them. They were really startled.

As soon as he took a closer look, he couldn't help laughing at the strong desire for knowledge on the face of this pretty girl.

The aunt who claimed to know some inside information whispered a short story to a few people on the side of the road.

"...How could the young master of the Yuan family obey? He only left a letter to his parents, saying: "It is difficult to obey the order of a blind marriage."

I was away from home for three years.

His parents were so angry that they just left him alone and let him wander around outside.

In the fourth year, Young Master Yuan finally returned home.

He admitted his fault, knocked his head in front of his parents until it was swollen, and knelt in the ancestral hall for three days and three nights.

"……and after?"

The plot development was really bloody, but Li Changle listened with great interest, holding his cheek and asking eagerly what would happen next.

This is actually a true story, not a fiction.

That is, the plot is somewhat familiar...

Leng Yiwei turned sideways, glanced at the women, and resigned himself to his fate as he continued to sit stiffly beside the shaft of the cart.

He tried his best not to let out his cold air and scare away the group of ladies, which would spoil the fun of the eldest young lady by preventing her from hearing the story of the talented scholar and the beautiful lady.

"Later? This young master is really stubborn. Although he returned home, his soul was left outside."

"Hey? Could it be that the young master has gone insane?" Li Changle couldn't help but interrupt.

"No, my dear, what nonsense are you talking about? If you were to go insane, how could the groom still ride his horse to welcome the bride today?"

“Hahahaha…” Three or five middle-aged ladies nearby pushed and shoved and started laughing.

Li Changle laughed dryly and urged her, "Then Auntie, please continue."

"His parents said that since he has come back to fulfill his filial duty, he should fulfill the previous engagement first."

"When the young master heard this, his heart and liver were broken..."

Li Changle burst out laughing. This aunt imitated it vividly, as if she was watching the whole process live.

"Hey, little lady, don't laugh first..."

"The young master told his parents everything. In the third year after he left home, he met a woman by the Leshui River, and they fell in love and cherished each other..."

Okay, the story is the same...

"...He said that he would never marry anyone except that girl in this life. He just stayed with his parents."

"Hey, as a parent, even though we are upset, how can we be stronger than our children?

Just say that you will find a time to go to the girl's family and have a good talk with them, and you must get their understanding.

After all, if they were forced to get married, they would most likely end up as a pair of resentful lovers.

But breaking off the engagement didn’t mean that the two elders agreed to let him marry that woman from Leshui. They ordered their son to break off the engagement and wait until he passed the imperial examination before discussing marriage with him next time.

Although the plot is old-fashioned, it is a real story with flesh and blood, and it feels more real when you listen to it than when you read a storybook.

Li Changle sighed:

"So what happened next was that the young master studied very hard and finally passed the exam to become a scholar. His parents fulfilled his wish and he immediately went to the bank of Leshui to propose to the girl, right?"

Li Changle deeply felt that the story routines of ancient talented scholars and beautiful women, on the road to "two people living happily together", mostly hit the same iron wall - parents' opposition; and used the same promise - I will marry you when I pass the imperial examination.

In the end, it is nothing more than the parents breaking up the couple, or they finally compromise.

It's nothing more than a man who passed the imperial examination but was caught by someone who was not on the list and became an unfaithful man, abandoning his wife.

In this model, the man is actually quite competitive.

Li Changle thought the story ended there, and planned to part ways with the ladies and go to the west of the city.

But it seemed that the situation was not as she said. Her aunt grabbed her sleeve and said, "Young lady, why are you so impatient? I haven't finished talking yet. Today, the groom is marrying the bride to fulfill the marriage contract made by our parents."

Li Changle widened his eyes and said in disbelief:

"No, the scholar is a scumbag, right? Did he meet the girl he was engaged to later and was attracted by her beauty? Or did he want to work less for 20 years because the girl's family background was very powerful, so he betrayed the girl by the Leshui River? Isn't this a fence-sitter?"

Li Changle suddenly recalled a line from Huanzhu: Your Majesty, do you still remember Xia Yuhe by the Daming Lake?
