Chapter 72 Marriage is hard to come by
Because there are too many tigers and wolves around, Mrs. Zhang wants to stay and see her home. Gui Bu Hui Huan specially invited several managers from nearby Sishui to help take care of her. Since Liu Xi and Sun Xiaochuan suffered a great loss last time, they have set up caravans in various shops. With Sishui to support her, no one dares to come easily to find the right and wrong of the Qian family.
Although she did not go there in person, Mrs. Zhang still made full preparations for her daughter's trip. Just the food, clothing, housing and transportation along the way, she prepared five large carts. This was not the twelve maids and mothers sent to serve Niu'er. If it weren't for Wu Mian along the way, Mrs. Zhang could have prepared a guard team of one or two hundred people.
That night, Mrs. Zhang didn't close her eyes. While tossing and turning, she prepared all the things that "Sword Lang" used. While changing into women's clothing for the first time, the little boy, who was originally like a pink doll, turned into a little girl with a bit of heroism overnight. Seeing Mrs. Zhang's eyes turned red. Thinking of the bitter past over the past few years, tears couldn't help but fall.
He repeatedly told his daughter what to do on the journey along the way (Mrs. Zhang hadn't gone out a few times), and after he talked about it, the sky was already dark. Thinking that his daughter, who was only seven or eight years old, was about to travel far, the woman regretted it at this time. However, for the sake of Jianlang's future life, he could only endure it secretly. I think that with Wu Mian and Gui Bugui's company, Jianlang's child could not bear any grievances.
During breakfast, Mrs. Zhang changed her habits for many years and rarely walked out of the back house and came to the front hall. She brought Jianlang, who had already changed into women's clothing, to greet everyone. Then she asked her daughter to face Wu Mian, Gui Bugui and two monsters, and thanked them for their upcoming company and guards.
When he was snatching his head to the point of asking for nothing, Erlang laughed and reached out to grab the clothes on Niuer's back and lifted the eight or nine-year-old girl up. After she asked her to stand up, she said, "Don't worry, follow us, you can't suffer any loss. Listen to what the old guy said, are you going to see your parents-in-law this time? If they dare to bully you, Niuer, tell me. No matter what the Duke of Tang Guo or Duke of Yan Guo, I twisted their heads off and hung them on the door to be the door knocker."
Seeing Bai Wuqiu's thick hands and feet, Mrs. Zhang's face changed. However, Niu'er was very bold when she was treated as a boy since she was a child. Not only was she not afraid, she laughed "giggle..." and pestered Bai Wuqiu and wanted to do it again like she did just now.
Seeing his daughter and Bai Wuqiu fussed, Mrs. Zhang hurriedly found a different topic: "Sword Lang should stop making trouble, it should be prepared. I will go to the ancestral hall later and beg your father, grandpa and grandpa to bless the safe journey..."
"Wait a minute, do you call Niuer Jianlang?" At this time, Xiao Rensan jumped to Niuer and looked at Mrs. Zhang and said, "If we remember correctly in ginseng, Niuer will follow us to meet her parents-in-law. Whose daughter will be named Jianlang? When the betrothal gift is given, the wedding invitation will be written on Li Xuanba and Qian Jianlang. Tell me yourself, who can tell us which ginseng is a man?"
At this time, Mrs. Zhang realized that she had been busy all night last night and forgot to change her name for her daughter. Jianlang was given the name Niu'er's grandfather in this life. Mrs. Zhang asked her daughter's grandfather to give her a female name.
"The name Jianlang is really strange when used in every girl's family." After Gui Bugui smiled, he thought of a suitable name: "How about changing Jianlang to Gladiola? The name was given by the deceased ancestors. Let's change it to one word, which can be considered as the ranking provided in the ancestral hall."
"Jianlang, Jianlan... Qian Jianlan is a good name." Mrs. Zhang once again asked her daughter Qian Jianlan, who was already a little impatient, to pay tribute to Guigui. Thank you for your kindness of Grandpa's name.
Before the girl could kneel down, Gui Bugui had already helped the little girl up and said, "It's just one word, not that much kindness. Get up. If we don't set out, we'll be afraid that we will miss Hotou tonight. We have nothing to do with it. You little baby, you can't sleep outside in the wind and open..."
After hearing Gui Bugui say this, Mrs. Zhang could only order the convoy to prepare for driving. Thinking of being about to part with her daughter, the mother and daughter were both in pain. After crying enough, Mrs. Zhang wiped her tears and sent Qian Jianlan to the carriage with mercy, and then watched the convoy drive further and further in front of her...
The convoy drove by a town shop at noon, but followed a mother from Niu'er out to take a look at the only restaurant in the town. Then she returned to Niu'er's car with disgust and said respectfully to the young master in the carriage: "Girl, mama, I went to see the food here. It was dirty and messy inside, which was really not a place for people to eat. Fortunately, when we went out, grandma prepared a lot of things. The mama asked the girl, would we cook the first meal by ourselves?"
Niu'er Qian Jianlan kicked the door of the carriage with a "bang!" and when she showed her head from inside, she had already changed into men's clothes again. She glanced at Wu Mian on another carriage. After Gui Bugui and them, she said to her mother-in-law: "It's better to cook the meat you are good at, and cook more for my grandfather and the others to send it. Has my mother prepared wine for her? Take a jar of ginseng and prepare some vegetarian dishes for the little monk. My mother wants the girl to marry him, but this monk looks dry and thin. Who knows if he has any tuberculosis?"
Niu'er has been raised as a man since she was a child, because she was worried that Mrs. Zhang would not ask her husband to teach her. It was just that she taught Niu'er to read when she was fine. Now Miss Qian Jianlan changed into men's clothes and was even more different from a man. Although she was only eight or nine years old, she spoke and did things so generously.
At this time, Wu Mian, Gui Bugui and the others took the bald Li Xuanba and got off the carriage. After hearing Niu'er's words, Bai Wuqiu clapped his hands and laughed. Then the two fools came to the chef who was accompanying the car and instructed the chef to do this and that.
"Gilan, you girl, are generous. It seems like a girl I met in a Hushi Shop in Chang'an City, grandpa." Gui Bugui walked to Niu'er with a smile, then turned around and said to Li Xuanba who was a little shy, "Little monk, come here too. Your master told you to return to secular life and you no longer avoid meat. You can taste the meat from your wife's house later. It's no harm to eat some meat."
"Who is his wife? Grandpa, if you see him well, you can marry him. Don't involve me..." When Gui Bugui teased herself, Niu'er raised her sword eyebrows and continued, "I don't know why my mother was blind. I chose a monk as her husband for the girl. Little monk, let's agree, girl, I won't bother you and worship Buddha, and you don't want to be foolish about the girl..."
After saying a few words, Gui Bugui laughed silently. When he was about to say a few words of advice, he never thought that the little monk Li Xuanba had folded his hands together and chanted the Buddha's name. After chanting the Buddha's name, he said to Qian Jianlan: "It's so great. The little monk does not disturb the girl's marriage, and the girl doesn't have to pay attention to the little monk worshiping Buddha and meditation. Amitabha Buddha is very good..."
Qian Jianlan was so happy that she said to the chef who was picking the leaves: "Cook more dishes for the monk, so that he could eat enough to chant scriptures for the Buddha and Bodhisattva... Little ginseng, come here and have a good meal for you..."
Qian Jianlan looked at the same size as a ginseng doll that was not a few thousand years old. She immediately waved to Xiao Rensan with a pretext, and said with a giggle: "Come here quickly, sister has prepared lees for you. The smell of alcohol candy, and you will get drunk if you eat two pieces..."
