I was exiled after wearing a book

Chapter 95
Although Jiang Xin is 22 years old, she is still an unmarried girl who can't put all her hair up. She needs to keep some of her hair. Today, Cui Cui gave Jiang Xin a half round haircut, and then she tied her hair. Walking around, The wobble is very interesting, and then there are two half-finger-long slanted hairpins on the side. There is a row of small rubies on the hairpin, which is the same appearance as the bird's eyes on the swing. It is a set at first glance. .

The earrings with ruby ​​and bird-like earrings are also the same set, which Jiang Xin bought in Liaodong Prefecture, simple and elegant.

Compared with Liaodong Zhizhou, Shaanxi Zhizhou has more jewelry styles, more exquisite workmanship, and more styles.

Jiang Xin chose six sets of ruby ​​heads, including bougainvillea and plum blossoms. A set of bougainvillea has 32 small pieces, and a set of plum blossoms has 28 small pieces. A set of bougainvillea costs 480 taels of silver. The price is 240 taels of silver, which is much lower. The main reason is that the gemstones of plum blossoms are smaller, and the quality is indeed the same. They are blood red and bright, and there are very few impurities when viewed with a magnifying glass.

Two sets of sea pearls are the size of rice grains, two sets the size of soybeans, and two sets the size of peas. The total cost is 700 taels of silver.

There are six sets of heads and faces inlaid with gold and jade, in various shapes, lotus, chrysanthemum, peony, and Guanyin. Jiang Xin thinks the ones are beautiful and of good quality, so he simply took them all.

Then there are jadeite bracelets, I ordered twelve pairs directly, all made of ice, and there was a pair of ice made with flowers. The store saw that Jiang Xin’s purchase was scary, so he gritted his teeth and took out a box of bracelets that had been put away. , a pair of glass ones, a pair of purple jadeites, a pair of yellow jadeites, and a pair of red jadeites, all of which are so dazzling that they almost blind people's eyes.

Jiang Xin pursed her lips. Qin Lang, who was on the side, watched her eyelids jump, and saw Jiang Xin wave her hand, asking for everything.

After buying these, Jiang Xin bought a few daggers inlaid with gemstones, and a few inkstones that she didn't understand very well.

Next is the second floor. Jiang Xin directly bought forty bolts of silk and satin in various colors, and some fine xiangyun yarn can be used as tents. Although the color is not particularly bright, the fabric is very soft and breathable. Jiang Xin really liked it, so she bought two. It wasn't that she didn't want to buy more, but the store only wanted to sell two to Jiang Xin. It was because Jiang Xin had reached the total amount of shopping on the first floor, so she was willing to share some more for her. Yes, the craftsmanship of Xiangyun yarn is very strict, especially this kind of top-quality Xiangyun yarn, which is soft and cloud-like. Take it out, so as not to touch it and anger the customers.

For this shopping trip, Jiang Xin paid 6 taels of silver when she went out. The store owner didn’t know where this was from a wealthy customer. She was extremely polite. Hearing that Jiang Xin said she was going to leave through the back door, she arranged to pack her things and escort her People left through the back door.

Qin Lang said with a speechless expression: "I don't see you shopping like this in Liaodong. Why, the things in this store are so good?"

Jiang Xin glanced at Qin Lang. He was already wearing a red jadeite glass jade bracelet on his wrist. Looking carefully at the light shining through the curtain of the carriage, his love was vividly expressed.

After looking at it for a long time, Jiang Xin put down his wrist and said, "I also do shopping in Liaodong, but you didn't notice it." Liaodong is rich in ginseng, deer antler, some medicinal materials, and all kinds of fur.

She can buy the most cost-effective furs locally. She has stocked up a lot of top-quality mink furs bought by local traders from Beiyi, but not everyone can wear mink furs.

According to the regulations of the Great Zhou Dynasty, civil officials of the third rank or above, and military officers of the second rank or above are eligible to wear mink fur, but there are exceptions, that is, editors below the fifth rank, military aircraft Zhangjing, and Hanlin are also allowed.

I said before that those who can enter the Imperial Academy must get the top three in the palace examination, because they have the privilege of wearing ermine because of their knowledge.

The editor is the editor of the History Museum, which belongs to a department of the Hanlin Academy. The military aircraft Zhang Jing's position in the military aircraft department is often on night duty, so mink fur is allowed.

Ordinary people who don't care about official positions, or the family members of officials, can wear lynx fur and fox fur, but they can't wear fur facing outward. They must sew a coverall on the outside and wear the fur inside.

Jiang Xin does not have imperial orders. The so-called imperial orders refer to obeying husbands or sons. When they are in certain official positions, they can ask for imperial orders for their wives or mother-in-law.

The same official position, the imperial order is the same.

For example, Qin Hua is currently a seventh-rank military clerk, and after he takes office, he can submit a booklet to Fan Chunhua to ask for an imperial order.The so-called "Mrs. Gaoming" is awarded to the direct female relatives and wives of officials of the first and second ranks. lady.When Fan Chunhua's imperial order is approved, he will be a child of the seventh rank.

Jiang Xin and his sisters didn't have any orders. They could wear some furs, but they had to be worn inside, and the outside had to be a face-saving thing. It didn't matter if some fur collars were exposed.

Hearing what Jiang Xin said, Qin Lang thought that Jiang Xin had indeed stored a lot of furs in Liaodong before, so he put on the steel rings for archery and said softly: "Marry me, then you can wear mink fur !"

After speaking, he looked at Jiang Xin eagerly.

Jiang Xin turned her head away, raised her hand and continued to look at the bracelet. Qin Lang continued helplessly, "I paid the monthly salary, this time I rioted, and I paid back some treasures, all of which can be given to you."

Jiang Xin stopped looking at the bracelet, turned to look at Qin Lang, glared at him and said, "Am I short of money?"

Qin Lang groaned: "That's not lacking. But marrying me has many benefits for you, for example, you will have greater freedom. I won't let you go out. You are in charge of the whole family, and you are in charge of everything. After all, you can walk around without being criticized. I can also bring you glory and seal you up. Of course, if you want a child, I can also help you." At the end , the sound is very small.

Jiang Xin rolled her eyes and rubbed the bracelet on her wrist with her hands, but she was thinking about the feasibility of Qin Lang saying this. She is 22 this year. According to the previous life, the real youth, but In the Great Zhou Dynasty, she was really an old leftover woman who had already started to pay the unmarried poll tax.

According to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, if a woman reaches the age of 22 and does not marry, she must pay a high poll tax until she is married.

It's not that Jiang Xin can't afford the little money, it's that everyone she knows around her is urging her, asking why she doesn't get married, but every individual will ask such a question, and not getting married for a while is really a problem.

It's just that she never wanted to get married, and starting a family was too much trouble. Her father, brother, and aunt didn't urge her to think clearly, even if she left the woman's household, or in other words, The family is not married and has been raised at home, and the family does not mind.

But Jiang Xin didn't want to do this, and let everyone stare at her, thinking that she was the wonderful flower of the whole family and attracted much attention.

So Qin Lang is a good candidate for marriage. First of all, I really don't know what is going on with this guy, but one thing is that he and himself should be of the same kind, an indescribable kind of person.

So although Jiang Xin didn't reply, he didn't object. When Qin Lang got out of the carriage, he was a little happy. After Jiang Xin visited four furniture stores, ordered twenty sets of furniture, and got on the carriage again, he asked carefully. Said: "How about I find someone to propose marriage to my uncle?"

Jiang Xin snorted: "Yeah." Then she looked out of the window and said nothing, her face expressionless.

Qin Lang didn't feel uneasy or unhappy at all, and even hummed happily. He didn't know what he was singing, but he was very happy anyway.

For dinner, the two had dinner at the inn.After eating, Qin Lang took his things back to the barracks.

In the next few days, Jiang Xin inspected the progress of the renovation and construction of the house. When the weather got warmer in mid-March, he had a meal with his father, brother, Qin Lang and Uncle Qin, and then left for Liaodong Prefecture. .

On the way back, Jiang Xin brought four guards, and Qin Lang sent six of his own guards from the army to set off together.

Jiang Xin is no stranger to Qin Lang's six guards. When he went to suppress the bandits before, Zhu Zi and Wang Meng were there. The other four are called A Niu. He is a strong man with a height of 260 meters and [-] catties. , looked particularly vicious, but Jiang Xin wasn't afraid at all.

The pillar is like a scout, responsible for scouting the road ahead to check if there is any abnormality, while Wang Meng is responsible for riding beside Jiang Xin's carriage, responsible for safety, and everyone else follows him back and forth.

In the evening after walking for four days, the group stayed overnight at Jiang Xin's seventh inn.This inn is still near the official road, entered by a small road, covering an area of ​​more than 4000 square meters, and a large yard is enclosed at the back, where goods and carriages can be stored. It is the largest of all inns.

At night, Jiang Xin placed herself in the suite of the Tianzi Shop. Inside was a large bed measuring two meters by two meters, with sand tents, thick mattresses covered with white sheets, and a faint fragrance of flowers could be smelled when lying on it.

As for the hygiene in the inn, Jiang Xin specially recruited a group of people to train them. There are strict requirements on washing and changing, especially in the rooms of Tianzi size. The guests who stayed in Tianzihao's room were very satisfied. The servants and maids who manage Tianzihao are often rewarded, and they are all full of enthusiasm.

After eating and drinking, Jiang Xin went upstairs to check the ledger and some purchase records.As soon as it got dark, the maid beside her brought Jiang Xin a bowl of bird's nest from the back kitchen. Jiang Xin pointed to a corner of the table without raising her head. Jiang Xin was alone in the room.

Suddenly, Jiang Xin stopped looking at the ledger, and stared at the covered bowl.
