The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 248 Chapter 230

Another two days later, Duan Wuji was practicing martial arts in the yard this morning. Tieniu rode a horse and came over again. Tie Niu tied the horse to a tree, then watched Duan Wuji practice martial arts for a while, and then said to Duan Wuji: "Brother , Stop practicing, take a break, brother, let me tell you something."

Duan Wuji smiled wickedly.

"Brother Tieniu, you don't need to tell me what's going on."

"Oh? So you have become the fortune teller, so tell me, why did I come here today?"

"Why did you come here? Didn't you come here for Hou Yinping? Did brother Tie Niu want to marry a bride? What's so embarrassing? Just say so."

"I said brother, now that you have really become a fortune-teller, how can you guess right?

If you want me to say, why don't you just set up a Guatan in our Duanjiaji, I think you will definitely make a fortune doing this!

When the time comes, I'll help you out. Let's sit together at the fair. It's great to eat and drink! "

Duan Wuji smiled.

"Brother Tieniu, stop talking nonsense, let's talk about something serious. Come, come, let's sit in my west wing for a while.

Let's talk slowly. "

Saying that, the two brothers got into the west wing room.

Well, these two people, when they entered the house, they lay down on the kang.

Duan Wuji looked at Tieniu and said: "Brother Tieniu, before you meet the bride, don't you have to tidy up the house first? Is there anything I can do for you?

Let me clean it up for you tomorrow. "

Tie Niu shook his head with a smile.

"Brother, thank you for your kindness, to be honest, my father and mother and I have already cleaned up the house during this time.

Brother, we are a small family, and our family is far less rich than yours, brother. I don't advocate doing this marriage too extravagantly, after all, there is still some money left for daily life.

This marriage is wasted, and when the money is short, wouldn't it be over? "

Duan Wuji smiled when he heard this: "Brother Tieniu, do you think in the long term?"

Tie Niu laughed when he heard this.

"Does it need to be said? Brother, I was starved when I was young, and the feeling was really uncomfortable. Now that the days have finally slowed down, how dare you think I wasted it?

Besides, selling horses is not a long-term job. What if you quit in the future?
Of course, your family is now a fat chicken and a duck. It’s okay if you don’t get a penny for ten or twenty years, but my family can’t do it!

Brother, I don't know how to run a business. If you spend such two money all day long, it won't take a few years!Brother, do you think that what I said, brother, is so reasonable? "

"Well, what you said really makes sense. Brother Tieniu, why don't you have to buy two carts of porcelain?"

Tie Niu laughed when he heard this.

"Brother, to tell you the truth, I bought the porcelain three days ago, and now I have set it up at home, furniture, bed, etc. I also prepared it a few days ago, and now everything is ready. It's just a matter of picking up the bride."

"Brother Tie Niu, who do you plan to pick up the bride? It's hundreds of miles away, and it's not realistic to go to the sedan chair to carry it."

Tie Niu thought for a while and said: "Well, I also know this, and marrying a foreign bride is just a little troublesome, alas, who told us to do it, no one can do it.

Brother Wuji, I plan to go tomorrow. Didn't we say we will get married in May and June?

The day after tomorrow it will be May, we two brothers will bring some silver, we two brothers will go on a trip to the mountains and rivers, and when we get there, we will give them a bride price of 1000 taels of silver, won’t that be the end of it.

When we come back, we'll hire a car from the local area, and when we get back, we'll find a way to have a happy event.

If there is enough time, we two brothers will look outside to see if there is any profitable work. If there is, we will find a way to earn him a fortune.

How nice do you think this is? "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Brother Tieniu, are you going to marry a happy wife? Or go out to earn money?"

"Well, I think about it, I want to marry a bride, and I also want to earn two money to spend, why? Is this not possible?"

"Brother Tieniu, you think so beautifully. This man is married to a married woman and earns money. Why do you only think about good things?"

"Hey, who doesn't want good things? If you don't want good things, can good things come by themselves? Brother, what do you think?"

"I said? What did I say? Brother, won't it be over if I listen to you? Hey, Brother Tieniu, don't you plan to take Brother Changqing and the two of them there?"

"Take them there? What are you taking them there for? Hey, don't mention the ugly words Changhong's mother said a while ago.

Of course, we are separated by a village, so these words won’t reach your ears at all, and your lungs will explode after hearing it.

Brother, I won’t learn from you today. The third grandpa called our two families over a few days ago, just to silence our two families.

I'm afraid you know this too.

Our brothers took them out to earn some money with good intentions, but we didn't hear a good word from them. I was really mad at me. "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Brother Tieniu, don't be angry about that matter, he said in a long way: the prodigal son will not change his money when he returns, why should we be angry about such a trivial matter?

Besides, there is a common saying: Don’t look at the monk’s face and look at the Buddha’s face, we don’t look at their face, so we have to look at the face of our third grandfather, right?Besides, what about the face of our second grandfather?
What is the use of our common knowledge with them?Our brothers and sisters are all descendants of an old man, so we should be united. It can be said that our three families are all damaged, and all of us are prosperous!

Brother Tieniu, what do you think? "

"Who says no! But no matter what, let's go, I think we two brothers get along best.

Let's get together, temperament and temperament.Besides, it's useless to go to so many people, brother, what do you think? "

"Well, all right then.

Hey, brother Tieniu, since we have other ideas, when we go tomorrow, we'd better take all our weapons and snakeskin armor on, so we can deal with anything . "

"I know, I know.

Brother, look at this time, how many taels should I bring with me? "

Duan Wuji thought for a while and said: "Brother Tieniu, why don't you bring three thousand two hundred taels of silver with you when you go this time?

We use 3000 taels to get married, and 200 taels of silver as pocket money. "

"Okay, okay, brother, what do you say, brother, I don't listen to anyone, brother, I will listen to you.

Brother, you are busy, brother, I will go back and get ready, and I will come to you tomorrow morning. "

After speaking, the Tie Niu got up from the kang, walked out of the west wing and went home.

Duan Wuji also came out of his own room, and then walked straight to the main room.

When I entered the main room, I saw that my parents were all there, and my elder brother and his sister-in-law were also chatting with them in the room.

Wang Jinhua was also sitting next to her sister-in-law, putting her hands on her body and chatting casually.

When everyone saw Duan Wuji coming in, they stopped chatting one after another.

Duan Yanqing looked at Duan Wuji and asked: "Wuji, I saw Tieniu coming just now, why did this kid leave without entering the house?

What's the matter with him? "

Duan Wuji smiled and said, "Yes, why are you all right? Father, prepare 200 taels of silver for me, I have to go out tomorrow."

"Ah? Stay at home well, what are you doing when you go out?"

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Tomorrow I will follow my brother Tieniu to pick up the bride. Do you think it's okay to go out without bringing two coins?"

Liu Caihua laughed and said: "He married a bride, and you need to spend money to pick up the bride?"

"No, this time we're going out, we're just going on a trip, and we're looking for any profitable deals, so we can make some money from him."

"Yo, are you connecting the bride's belt to find business? Can this work?"

"Hey, it's just a blind touch. If you succeed, you will fail. Who dares to say that!"

Duan Yanqing laughed and said: "Wuji, is this 200 taels enough? Not enough, can you bring some more?"

"Well, that's fine, or you can give me 300 taels of silver."

Liucaihua laughed and said, "Yo, you brat, you have a good brain, why did it rise in a short while?"

Duan Wuji laughed when he heard this.

"Going out? As the saying goes: Tropical clothes and dry food. It doesn't hurt to bring a few extra money on the way. At worst, you can bring it back if you don't spend it all."

Niu Ahua saw it and said with a smile: "Our brothers are really good at it, I can't stay at home for a few days, I'm going out soon!"

Duan Changsheng laughed and said, "Our brother has this character, otherwise how could he manage such a big family business at such a young age?"

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Sister-in-law, if it's convenient, I'll bring you some good cloth when you come back from the trip.

Let each of you make some beautiful clothes. "

After hearing this, Niu Ahua smiled and said: "Okay, then sister-in-law, thank you first, brother, you can't just lie to me!"

Duan Wuji said with a smile after hearing this: "It depends on the chance, I'm not going to purchase, this matter is really uncertain."

"Hey! Brother, you are so funny! Didn't what you just said just now draw cakes to satisfy your hunger?"

Duan Changsheng tugged at his wife.

"Okay, okay, let's not say a few words. Don't embarrass our brother, I know best what kind of person my brother is.

Hey, Ah Hua, you and my mother will make him a delicious meal later, after all, our brothers are going out tomorrow. "

Wang Jinhua stepped forward.

"Wuji, take off your dirty clothes, I'll wash them for you later, how do you go out in dirty clothes?"

"Okay, okay, I'll go back to the west wing and take it off right away."

With that said, Duan Wuji stepped out.

After a short time, Duan Wuji brought in the dirty clothes he had taken off.

Ho!Now the family is back to work.The whole family is busy making arrangements for Duan Wuji to go out tomorrow.
