After the rebirth, the cold prince clings to me every day

Chapter 397 Miao Jiang
More than half a month later, Shen Mingjiao and his party came to Wenshan City in Yunnan Province in disguise. Almost half of the people living here were Miao people.

The carriage drove through the pass and entered the town, and Shen Mingjiao and the others were amazed by the unearthly craftsmanship in front of them.

Haitang pointed to the elegant three-story building in front of her: "This...is all made of wood!"

There are many mountains here, even if it is a market, it is only in a relatively flat mountain.

Wutai doctor introduced: "This is a Diaojiaolou. It is a unique building of our Miao nationality."

Shen Mingjiao looked at the roof with sloping corners and upturned eaves, and couldn't help but marvel: "Your ancestors were really wise!"

The witch doctor straightened his back proudly: "Although our Miao people live in the mountains, our cultural heritage is no less than that of your Han people!"

Today seems to be a market day here, and the streets are very lively.From time to time, various shouts came from my ears.

A girl in a gorgeous dress beside them greeted warmly:
"Ma'am, pretty Fabre, buy one and take it home!"

Shen Mingjiao turned her head and saw a girl wearing silver jewelry standing in front of the stall. The girl was not very beautiful, but she had a clean feeling that Shen Mingjiao couldn't describe, especially when she smiled, as if she was An uncut jade in the rough,
Shen Mingjiao gave the girl a friendly smile: "The hair accessories on the girl's head are so beautiful!"

There is no woman who does not like to be praised. The girl smiled brightly: "You are merchants who come here to buy wood! Madam, you can call me Xiuxiu. I made all these clothes myself."

Shen Mingjiao pointed to the few ready-made clothes hanging on the rack: "I want this one?" After speaking, he glanced at the people behind him: "Wrap up the rest too."

Next, I should stay here for a while, always going to do as the Romans do.

When the big business came, the smile on Xiuxiu's face became even brighter, and she started to pack quickly with her hands: "If the size is not suitable, just come to my house and ask me to change it. I'm from Wu's village, just opposite the mountain."

Yun Shu stepped forward to take it, "How much?"

Xiuxiu counted with her fingers for a long time, and said tentatively, "Give me a tael of silver!"

Seeing the astonished expressions of the people in front of her, she scratched her head.He hesitated and said: "Is it too much? You...you can also counter the price. But at least [-] Wen, no less..."

Following her movements, the silver ornaments on her head jingled.

Shen Mingjiao couldn't help laughing: "Girl, this is your first time selling something!"

Xiuxiu shook her head honestly: "No! It's just... I have never met a customer who bought so many clothes."

Shen Mingjiao took out an ingot of five taels of silver from her purse, and before the other party refused, she said with a smile: "There are so many of us, these few clothes are not enough, this is a deposit, if you need other clothes, let someone go to the girl Please ask the girl to help."

Xiuxiu took it in a daze.At this time, there was a sound of drums, as if some ceremony was about to be held.

So Shen Mingjiao and the others watched in surprise as the men and women who were setting up stalls left their stalls and ran towards a hill in unison.

"What are they going to do?"

The witch doctor glanced at the ribbons floating in the distance, and explained: "It's a coincidence that we came here. Today is March [-]rd, which is the annual Flower God Festival in the clan. Oh, it is equivalent to the Qixi Festival of Shangyuan for you Han people. On this day, unmarried young men and women will put on costumes and come to the mountains and waters in groups. The men and women will fall in love with each other, and if they see each other, they will invite them to leave, indicating that they are in love."

Shen Mingjiao exclaimed in amazement: "It's unimaginable for men to sing too!" After all, Han men are relatively reserved, and they don't know how to sing or dance even in private.

The witch doctor smiled: "What's the matter, there are no Miao people who can't sing, not only during festivals, but also during farming and herding cattle."

Shen Mingjiao asked Haitang to put away her clothes, and said, "Since we've caught up, let's join in the fun too!"

Haitang pointed to a row of stalls in the market, and murmured in disbelief, "These people have really big hearts, and they're not afraid of people stealing them!"

This was heard by a guy passing by in a hurry, and the other party replied naturally: "What's the matter, no one will steal it!"

"Okay, let's go!"

A group of people followed the team to one of the hills tied with colorful cloth strips, and saw girls in colorful clothes dancing enthusiastically and singing songs with national characteristics.

Compared with the Shangyuan Festival in Beijing, those Han women who are either tweaking or trying to maintain elegance and good looks, they dance so casually, they don't care about image etiquette, but they give people a pure and simple feeling.

Shen Mingjiao said with emotion: "It turns out that the rumored Miao Jiang is like this!"

The doctor Wu continued: "In Madam's heart, everyone in the Miao people knows how to raise Gu and deal with snakes, insects, rats and ants all day long!"

Shen Mingjiao admitted her mistake honestly: "I am narrow-minded!"

Indeed, as the witch doctor said, because of the sudden appearance of Gu worms, and some things Cui Lingling said about the God Wu Village, she subconsciously had a bad impression of the Miao people, so she was wary along the way.

But after coming here for only a few hours, she really saw a real and simple nation.

Yes, simple.

Just like the girl named Xiuxiu I met just now,
As soon as she thought of this, she saw Xiuxiu walking in front of them with cheerful steps, and then she sang an unknown tune towards the opposite side of the mountain,
Her voice is clear, and her singing may not be organized, but here, no one will pay attention to those.

At the same time as her voice fell, a high-pitched male voice immediately came to mind on the other side of the hill,

Shen Mingjiao followed the voice and saw that it was a young man with a strong figure and a simple and honest face. The young man was holding a cow in his hand, and there were several companions laughing and joking with him.

Seeing that there was no response from the other side, the young man became a little anxious. Amidst the booing of his companions, Mai Se's face turned red and he sang even harder.

Xiuxiu chuckled, and the little sister beside her smiled and poked her arm, indicating that it was almost enough.

Xiuxiu didn't hold back, she raised her voice, and answered the sentence openly to the opposite side.

The eyes of the young man on the opposite side lit up, and he led the cow down the gentle slope. Xiuxiu also walked in the direction of the young man amidst the laughter of the little sisters.

Shen Mingjiao: "The two of you are done?"

"Well, but the two families will not be hired immediately, and the two need to get along for a while. The woman can live in the man's house for a period of time. Only when she feels that all aspects are suitable, will she consider getting married."

Yun Shu sighed: "It turns out that the customs of different places can vary so much, but this is much better than a blind marriage?"

The group watched the excitement for a while, and Fu Guang followed the movements of these girls and danced for a while. Because of her eyes, many young people on the other side of the mountain sang high-pitched songs at her. The little girl saw this Rarely a little overwhelmed.

Shen Mingjiao hurriedly smiled and dragged people down the mountain, when she returned to the previous market, she happened to meet Xiuxiu and her two.

The other party greeted warmly, then pointed to the simple and honest young man beside him, and introduced him like a treasure: "This is brother A Niu, my lover."

Everyone glanced at the big ox who was following them, yes.What an apt name!
Shen Mingjiao praised her face very much: "You two are a perfect match when you stand together!"

Xiuxiu smiled with crooked eyebrows, and said without humility: "Well, I think so too." On the contrary, the young man with the cow beside him blushed embarrassingly.

"Are you here to buy wood, do you need our help?"

Shen Mingjiao waved her hand: "There's no rush, do you have an inn here? It's just...a place for passers-by to stay?"

Xiuxiu shook her head: "Except for merchants who collect medicinal materials and wood, few outsiders come here. But it happens that there are many empty houses in A Niu's house. If you don't mind, you can go to his house to borrow."

A Niu also warmly invited them after hearing the words.Shen Mingjiao did not refuse.Follow the two of them towards the mountains.

A group of people chatted while walking, Shen Mingjiao was good at communication, Xiuxiu was also enthusiastic and lively, and the two became acquainted with each other after a while.

"Are you all from the Wu Family Village?"

"Yes, several hills here belong to the Wu Family Village."

Shen Mingjiao looked up at the rolling mountain peaks and rows of closely connected stilted buildings in front of her, and once again sighed at the wisdom of the Miao people.

But... there must be at least tens of thousands of people in such a large area!It really is a big family.

She tentatively asked: "Then have you heard of the God Witch Village?"

Xiuxiu thought for a while and then shook her head: "I know all the villages in Wenshan, but I've never heard of this name. I'll ask my grandma when I go back."

Shen Mingjiao could see that the girl was not lying, she frowned, according to what Cui Lingling said, the Shenwu Village should not be unknown, why didn't the local Xiuxiu know of it?
