Rationally, she clearly knew that the eldest grandson she raised was worthy of the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Rites of her maternal family. However, in reality, the uncertain and uneducated Jia Xie was not worthy of the beautiful, intelligent, and virtuous Zhang Yining.
It was just that Zhang Xu had once received a great favor from Rongguo Province.
Back then, Zhang Xu was framed for embezzling military funds and was imprisoned. If it weren't for the old Duke Rongguo, Jia Yuan, who saved him..,
The Zhang family would have been extinct long ago.
Therefore, even if they didn't care about the relationship with the Chang Clan, just based on Jia Yuan's life-saving grace, the Zhang family had to marry their daughter over.
It didn't matter if she was taking advantage of her seniority this time or taking advantage of her seniority. She was old, and She'er had such a mother..,
She had to leave him some preparations.
Her youngest grandson, Jia Lian, and her niece, Zhang Yining, were the same.
Since they already had an intention with the Zhang family, in a few days..,
The Chang Clan began to make arrangements for their eldest grandson.
From ancient times until now..,
When ordinary people wanted to get married, they had to go through the "Three Books and Six Rites" before they could do it.
The "Three Books" referred to the documents used in the process of the "Six Rites",
Including the letter of appointment, the letter of etiquette, and the letter of welcome.
The "Six Rites" referred to the six rites, namely, accepting, asking, Naji, accepting, inviting, and welcoming.
Although everyone secretly had a consensus, they still had to put on an act on the surface.
The Chang Clan sent someone to invite an official matchmaker to formally propose marriage to the Zhang family,
They also asked the Jia Xie to bring a live wild goose (which was shot down by Jia Daishan's personal guards out of the city) as a gift.
After a round of asking, Naji,
After the two sides exchanged the marriage invitations,
The Chang Clan sent the betrothal gifts that had long been prepared to the Zhang family.
Among the betrothal gifts, there were hehuan, jiahe, donkey-hide gelatin, jiu zi pu, zhu wei, shuang shi, cotton wool, longevity thread, dry paint, and so on,
They all had the meaning of wishing the couple's love everlasting.
Other than that..,
There were thirty thousand taels of silver, six boxes of gems, six boxes of head ornaments, six bolts of crimson, six bolts of silk, and six bolts of silk.
The old Duke Rongguo, Jia Yan, was the founding hero of the country.
There were countless treasures bestowed by the late Emperor, and he himself had obtained countless treasures from his expeditions in the past. Among them, there were many rare treasures.
After his death, more than half of his private property went to the Chang Clan. The Chang Clan loved their eldest grandson the most. It was not hard to imagine how many treasures were in Jia Xie's betrothal gifts.
The Shi Clan originally wanted to say that they were ill and refuse to be in charge of Jia Xie's wedding. However, when they saw that Jia Xie's betrothal gift was no less than a hundred thousand taels, they immediately became jealous.
She was just the daughter of a poor family. Why would she need so many betrothal gifts? Why didn't she see if she was worthy of such good fortune?
That old woman only cared about her eldest son. She didn't care about her Zheng'er and Min'er at all. These good things should belong to her children.
Thus, the Shi Clan became greedy and wanted to take over the betrothal gifts on the pretext that they didn't want the old woman to work hard. They wanted to take advantage of the situation and fill their own pockets with shoddy goods.
However, the Chang Clan didn't beat around the bush and directly refused.
The Chang Clan never let anyone else handle the Jia Xie's wedding. They personally arranged everything for their eldest grandson and didn't leave a single gap for the Shi Clan to intervene. This caused the Shi Clan to feel resentful and secretly made a lot of small moves.
The Jia Lian, who left early and returned late every day, didn't have time to "play" with them. In addition to learning the "Three Character Classic" and the "Thousand Character Classic" from Uncle Wang in the morning, he also had to learn the horse stance, bow drawing, eyesight, and other basic skills from the trusted experts arranged by Emperor Wen Of Zhou. In the evening, he had to soak in a medicinal bath made from a secret recipe and listen to Wang Yi talk about the art of war, military strategy, and all kinds of battle stories. He was extremely busy.
As for his big brother's wedding date, he only found out after listening to the Jia Xie's incessant chatter before he went to bed. However, he soon fell asleep due to exhaustion.
Even when he was sleeping, the Jia Lian put the Huolong Lequan on the bed and hugged it like a sloth.
It was clearly a lethal weapon among lethal weapons. The Fire Dragon Dripping Spring provoked the timid Jia She into only daring to lightly poke his younger brother with his finger. However, in the next moment, he was as silent as a cicada in winter. This was all because when Jia Lian turned over in displeasure, the Fire Dragon Dripping Spring in his embrace flipped over as well. The flame-like dragon-tongued spearhead carried a berserk intent as it pointed at his fragile throat.
QAQ Grandmother!
It's very dangerous here. Quickly come and save Sha 'er!!!
When the Jia Xie first saw that the Jia Lian was "unconscious," she thought that her good little brother was sick. She was startled and asked the Chang Clan to invite a doctor to the mansion.
The Chang Clan, who didn't know what was going on, really did invite a doctor. After the doctor took the Jia Lian's pulse, he knew that the Jia Lian was fine. He was just too tired and would be fine after a good sleep.
With the words of a professional, the Chang Clan, Jia Daishan, and even the Jia Xie looked at the Jia Lian with pity.
When the Jia Daishan saw that his little brother was so hardworking, he felt very gratified and even a little proud. Look!
This is my, the Jia Daishan's, son!
He didn't tell his wife to go to the Shi Clan. Instead, he specifically told the kitchen to prepare more beneficial soup for the Jia Lian to drink when he returned home. It could be seen that the Chang Clan had left a shadow in his heart.
The "bastard" Jia Xie, on the other hand, pitied and rejoiced. She pitied her little brother for being so pitiful and rejoiced that he didn't have to work so hard.
The Jia Xie's wedding date was set to be in the middle of March next year, the day when the purple flowers bloomed.
The most important thing in martial arts was talent, followed by the foundation.
The Jia Lian hadn't even laid the foundation yet. If he wanted to learn internal energy and spear techniques in half a year, it was impossible for him not to work hard.
Because he was still short, Wang Yi specifically asked the Imperial Household Department's Martial Preparation Department to make him a "short spear" that was also short, but made of stainless steel, so that he could practice spear techniques.
The spear was the king of all weapons.
Spear techniques were generally based on blocking, grabbing, and stabbing.
There was a saying: "A month with a stick, a year with a saber, a lifetime with a spear."
It could be seen that spear techniques were also relatively difficult to learn and master.
Spear techniques were still okay. One had to practice the basics first, so there was no need to quickly choose which spear technique to learn. However, internal energy had to be quickly learned.
At noon, Wang Yi was on duty in the Cabinet. Emperor Wen Of Zhou asked him to stay for lunch. He wanted to ask the Jia Lian about his recent progress. He had already sent someone back to say that he wouldn't return home at noon.
Uncle Wang saw that the Jia Lian's recent performance was quite good, so he rewarded him with a break and went to deal with the affairs of the mansion.
Proud Blood Fighting Spirit, Iron Prison Law.
The Jia Lian compared these two techniques. He held his small face and his eyes wandered.
Attack, defend.
Advance courageously, be impregnable.
After a while, "Hehe!
Hehe! "
The Jia Lian smiled and stretched out his small hand to open the page that recorded Proud Blood Fighting Spirit.
If the missing Li Chengen knew about the Jia Lian's choice, he would probably rub his forehead in annoyance. His dignified sword-like eyebrows furrowed as he helplessly said, "Why don't these wolf cubs have the slightest bit of sacrificial spirit? No one is willing to peacefully practice the Iron Prison Law!"
He didn't care that he had also practiced Proud Blood Fighting Spirit before he practiced Iron Prison Law.
"Proud Blood Fighting Spirit is one of the two major internal energy techniques of Tian Ce.
Under the circulation of internal energy, it can make the blood vessels of the whole body unobstructed. Under the eruption of true Qi, the internal energy will surge, making one invincible and unstoppable … "Next was the internal energy circulation diagram of Proud Blood Fighting Spirit.
The Jia Lian imitated the little figure in the diagram. He sat cross-legged and formed a spell with his hands. His mind was clear and his soul was clear as he silently recited the chant.
Because the Jia Lian was extremely talented and had stepped into the state of empathy and resonated with the soldiers of Tian Ce, his comprehension of Tian Ce martial arts had increased by four. In less than a quarter of an hour, he had refined a trace of true Qi.
The Jia Lian was delighted and hurriedly guided the true Qi to circulate along his meridians. Every time his internal energy circulated, his internal energy would increase by a little.
The true Qi started from the Twelve Major Meridians, progressing in the order of Shaoyang, Shaoyin, Yangming, Jueyin, Taiyang, and Taiyin. Then it flowed to the Yang Wei, Yin Wei, Yang Wei, and Yin Wei of the Eight Extraordinary Meridians.
True Qi was integrated into the body's Qi and blood. To use true Qi, one not only had to control it, but also had to rely on the circulation of Qi and blood in the body to continuously transport true Qi.
It should be said that the Jia Lian was lucky. If a martial artist wanted to cultivate internal energy, especially a beginner, they would either cultivate in a remote and quiet place or have an elder to protect them.
Because the body's Qi and blood were affected by the true Qi during cultivation, if the mind was disturbed, the true Qi would go astray and change the Qi and blood route that should not be changed. This would damage or even severely damage the meridians and become a cripple.
He was not greedy. After circulating the true Qi around his body, he slowly guided it into his dantian and stored it.
[Ding!
It has been detected that the host's body has produced the Proud Blood Fighting Spirit's true Qi. However, the amount of true Qi has not reached the first level of the Proud Blood Fighting Spirit's internal energy. It is not enough to trigger the effects of Military Arrival or Drum Hearing. Please continue to work hard!
Work hard to grow taller!]
[Ding!]
Military Arrival, Drum Hearing?
When did it come?
By the ignorant and incompetent little Jia Lian.
He flipped open the internal energy circulation diagram of the Proud Blood Fighting Spirit and saw that there was a page at the back that recorded the various effects of the Proud Blood Fighting Spirit.
[Ding!]
The System could not stand it and directly explained, "First level of the Proud Blood Fighting Spirit's internal energy: Can trigger the Military Arrival or Drum Hearing effect.
[Ding!]
[Military Arrival: Increase the maximum value of strength by 10%. Increase the maximum value of blood qi by 10%. Increase the maximum value of internal energy by 10%. Increase the attack power of external energy by 10%. Increase the hit rate of external energy by 10%.
[Ding!]
[Drum Hearing: When using the Piercing Cloud of the Feather Forest Spear Technique, there is a chance to cripple the enemy. When using close-range external energy attacks, there is a chance to trigger the Enemy Subduing effect. When using close-range external energy attacks, there is a 100% chance of triggering the Enemy Subduing effect.
In non-combat situations, the effect of recovering internal energy is doubled.
[Ding!]
"Hmm …" The Jia Lian seriously listened to the explanation and asked, "I roughly understand the maximum value of strength, crippling and so on. But, what is the Enemy Subduing effect?"
[Ding!]
[Ding!]
The System was very pleased, "The Enemy Subduing effect ignores the enemy's evasion and restrains the enemy."
If it was not to trample the enemy underfoot, it was to raise the enemy to the sky.
"Oh!"
The Jia Lian suddenly understood.
That sounds very interesting!
The Jia Lian did not know what to think. He beamed with joy and continued to circulate his true Qi, hoping to reach the first level of the Proud Blood Fighting Spirit's internal energy as soon as possible.
"What did Grandmother teach you?
You are a real man. Don't hesitate to speak! "
The Chang Clan frowned. She had never seen her frank and straightforward little grandson like this.
The little boy asked in one breath, "Grandmother, what is the Unborn Child?
"
This time, it was the Chang Clan's turn to be stunned.
After regaining her senses, the Chang Clan waved the servants away, leaving only her confidant Qi Mama at the door to wait on her.
"Who told you these words?"
She asked angrily. Who dared to say these words in her courtyard!?
"It's … it's Madam. I inadvertently heard Madam say it."
The little boy's bright little eyes flashed, and he said half-truthfully.
The Chang Clan was suddenly enlightened.
That's right!
Other than her good daughter-in-law, who else would dare to say these words!?
Staring at the little boy's puzzled face, the Chang Clan felt a burst of pity in her heart. She reached out and hugged him.
"There is a paragraph in 'Zheng Boke Duan Yuyan' in 'The Zuo Clan of the Spring and Autumn Annals'. It is written like this: in the beginning, Zheng Wugong married Yu Shen, called Wu Jiang, and gave birth to Zhuang Gong and Gong Shu Duan.
Zhuang Gong gave birth to Wu Jiang, so he was called Unborn Child.
At this point, Madam Zhang paused for a moment, hardened her heart, and continued, "The matter recorded in the 'Records of the Grand Historian · Zheng Family' … Wu Jiang gave birth to the crown prince, Du Sheng.
The Chang Clan was born in a scholarly family. She clearly remembered the famous' Zheng Boke Duan Yuyan '.
Hearing this, the little boy was confused.
With an imperceptible sigh, the Chang Clan gently stroked the back of the little boy's head, and said, "That is to say, Zheng Wugong married a wife called Wu Jiang, and gave birth to Zhuang Gong and Gong Shu Duan.
Zhuang Gong was born Unborn Child, which made Wu Jiang unhappy. "
Although she is aware of the pain her little grandson is going to suffer, but for the sake of her eldest grandson, she can only tell the truth.
"Then, Grandmother, where did Unborn Child come from?"
The little boy reluctantly pulled the Chang Clan's sleeve and asked. He has a hunch that after hearing his grandmother's answer, his future life will change dramatically. But he wants to know, wants to know why his mother hates him so much.
"Unborn Child refers to dystocia.
Because dystocia can make a mother very painful when giving birth to children, Wu Jiang doesn't like Zhuang Gong. "
The Chang Clan tried to explain the word Unborn Child in a way that the little boy can understand.
The little boy was silent. It turns out that he made his mother very, very painful. No wonder his mother doesn't like him, and only likes his second brother and sister.
But …
The little boy hung his head. His heart is also very, very painful.
His eyes suddenly blurred, and tears struggled to gush out of his eyes.
He tried his best to stop. After all, he was a real man.
But the little boy couldn't help but choke with sobs, and tears flowed down uncontrollably.
He doesn't like his mother anymore, and he doesn't love his second brother and sister anymore.
The Chang Clan's heart softened. Although she loves her eldest grandson the most, this little grandson was raised by her since he was born. In the whole residence, her love for him is only ranked after her eldest grandson and son.
Seeing the always optimistic and honest child suddenly crying, the Chang Clan can't help but secretly scold her daughter-in-law. She is such a good child, but she has to say these words to make him sad. How can a mother do this!?
She also feels guilty. In order to make her little grandson and her daughter-in-law separate, and to be closer to her and her eldest grandson, she didn't care about the cruel fact that he is only four years old.
"Grandmother!
Grandmother!!
The adults of the Zhang family always ask me some questions that I don't understand. They are all those annoying things about the Four Books and Five Classics. I … "Before the Chang Clan can comfort her little grandson and take the opportunity to firmly pull him to the side of her and her eldest grandson, there is a burst of shouting outside the door.
The young man is wearing a fox armpit sleeves and a black fox leg coat. He has a jade belt around his waist and an ivory folding fan in his hand. His face is angry. Without waiting for Nanny Qi to open the curtain, he strode in from outside the door.
Seeing that their most beloved eldest grandson has returned, the Chang Clan's hands, which are holding the little boy, can't help but loosen a little.
The little boy is sensitive to this, and he feels more and more wronged and sad in his heart.
He pushed away the Chang Clan's arms, jumped off the couch, avoided the young man and Nanny Qi, lifted the curtain, and ran out.
"Lian'er!
Lian'er!!
Someone stop him!!! "
The Chang Clan's arms are empty, and they can only see the little boy's back striding away. They hurriedly shouted.
"Grandmother, what happened?"
Jia She dutifully supported his agitated grandmother, completely at a loss and confused.
The Chang Clan pushed the Jia Xie towards the door and said anxiously, "Go!
Go and get your brother back!
"
The Jia Xie was pushed out of the door. Although she didn't know what had happened, looking at the expressions of her grandmother and brother, she still had to find her brother as soon as possible.
After the little boy rushed out of his grandmother's courtyard, he couldn't help but hesitate. However, he soon found his target and trotted all the way to his destination.
"Whoosh!
Whoosh! "
The little boy is only four years old this year. He squats in his mother's courtyard for more than an hour, runs through his grandmother's courtyard, and runs through the hall, the small garden, the Yi Gate, and the outer door with the anger in his heart.
When he finally reached the study in the outer courtyard, he suddenly felt that it was difficult to breathe. He panted heavily, his chest was strangely stuffy, and his legs were so heavy that he could no longer lift them.
"Little Young Master, are you looking for Master?"
The manservant waiting in the outer courtyard's study saw the old lady's darling and hurriedly went forward, fawningly saying, "This is really unfortunate. Just now, Miss Zhenzhu from Madam's courtyard said that the Fourth Young Miss embroidered a pouch and wrote an article for Master and Second Young Master. She is waiting for Master to read and invite Master over.
"
The little boy was originally so tired that he couldn't breathe evenly, but when he heard the manservant's words, his breathing stopped for a moment.
That's right!
Father, Mother, Second Brother, and Elder Sister are a family. Grandmother and Big Brother are also a family. They are all a family. Only he is not. He is not a family.
Thinking of this, the little boy dejectedly lowered his head and walked out.
Out of habit, he found a tall tree in the outer courtyard and climbed up. He sat there quietly, letting his two feet dangle in the air.
They are all a family … a family …
The little boy sadly buried his head in his knees.
