After Su Qingluan returned home, the group of people who said they were here to help had already gone back.
According to Su Guangfu, although there were quite a lot of people coming, few of them were of use - after all, fishermen, hunters, and even barbers came over to see if there was any work that could make some money, and they were truly "professional counterparts." There are no more than two or three masons and carpenters.
Su Qingluan said hurriedly: "I have reposted the recruitment notice. I think someone will come tomorrow."
Yang looked at Su Qingluan's face and asked softly: "Da Ya, are you feeling unwell? Your face doesn't look good."
Su Qingluan twitched the corners of her mouth and tried to make a smile: "Actually, I'm a little tired today. Mom, I want to go and rest early."
Yang thought for a moment and thought that her eldest daughter had indeed been busy running around today. She had just gone to a friend's house again. She was probably very tired. She quickly waved her hand: "Go and have a rest. Your father and I are here now." The two of us can also take care of the stall, and you don’t have to go to the county tomorrow.”
Su Qingluan nodded and returned to his place without saying anything else.
When she returned to the house, she seemed to have lost all her strength. She collapsed on the bed without even having time to change her clothes.
Before seeing Que'er today, she had never had any intuitive impression of "marriage life" in this era.
But today, the way Que'er pretended to be strong and prepared her wedding dress, and the way Que'er's father outside the door looked at Que'er as if he were a prisoner, made her realize very clearly: the so-called "marriage" in this era, It was completely different from the familiar appearance in her consciousness.
In this era, marriage is no longer a matter between "a man and a woman". It is not simply a social issue, but is supported by relevant laws.
When Su Qingluan, Tian Xing'er and the others were returning, they used the excuse of "amnesia" to ask many questions about the wedding customs of this era.
But as the doubts in his heart were answered little by little, Su Qingluan's heart sank little by little.
Before today, Su Qingluan did not expect to meet any "like-minded" people in this strange era of feudal rule. This kind of thing is rare in modern times. It spans time and space, and the difficulty will definitely increase at a hellish level. .
But at least she once had a series of naive ideas of "at worst, I'll dress up as a man", or "at worst, I'll set up my own female household".
However, at this moment, Su Qingluan understood that, let alone the household registration and corvee issues involved in women disguising themselves as men, the "relatively feasible" matter of a female household would have to wait until there were no men in the family - that is to say At least not until her father and that naughty little brother are both dead.
... Su Qingluan thought that she was not so crazy that she would let her father and younger brother go to the west just to establish a female household.
So the biggest possibility is that if Su Guangfu and Yang really proposed a marriage for her, she would have to accept it completely unless she had a cheat.
However, although this blind marriage system is terrible, Su Qingluan is still very confident that her parents are relatively reliable - at least they love their children and will not do anything. The father of the son sells his daughter.
But the reason why it is "relatively reliable" is that there are differences in concepts on many things - such as how to adjust the morning and dusk, and serving uncles. Although Su Qingluan thinks it is "feudal dross", it is probably in the hearts of his parents. , that's natural.
It seems that I still need to pay more attention to the so-called "marriage" - at least talk to my parents about some of my conditions that can be made public, so as not to be too deceived.
As for the things that cannot be stated verbally - does it count if I hope that the other person is a character from Tiansha Lone Star or a fellow who has traveled through time?
Su Qingluan thought nonsensically.
The thoughts in his mind were in a mess, and Su Qingluan fell asleep unconsciously.
It was already bright when I woke up the next day. Su Qingluan lowered his head and looked: Well, he didn't even change out of his clothes last night! Of course, the quilt on the side was naturally not covered.
It's July now, and the weather is hot during the day. Even if the temperature drops at night, it doesn't make people shiver like in autumn and winter. Otherwise, I would probably have a headache and fever the next day if I slept without a quilt for one night.
Ever since Su Qingluan went out to the morning stall with her parents, except for those days when the weather was bad, she hadn't slept like this for a long time.
Qidao has always heard people say in his previous life, "If you are in a bad mood, just take a nap and it will be over." After Su Qingluan had a good sleep, her body and mind felt much lighter as if she had been suppressed by some invisible mountain yesterday.
Her parents had left long ago. Su Qingluan came out after changing into clean clothes and found her brother and sister eating breakfast in the yard.
Seeing Su Qingluan come out, Su Xuanhe pointed in the direction of the kitchen: "Sister, there is still porridge in the pot, as well as the wild vegetables mixed by grandma and the leftover fried chicken bones from yesterday."
Su Qingluan nodded, turned around, brought breakfast, and sat at the small wooden table in the yard to eat with her younger brothers and sisters.
At this time, Su Qingluan felt a soft little hand on her forehead - it was the little girl Su Xueyan.
Su Qingluan saw her looking like a little adult and touched her forehead seriously. She smiled and turned around and asked her: "Did you find anything, little doctor?"
The little girl didn't notice—or, in other words, the three or four-year-old children didn't notice at all—the teasing tone in Sister's tone, and she very carefully touched Su Qingluan's smooth forehead several times before nodding. Head: "Sister, she doesn't have a fever and doesn't need to take medicine."
Su Qingluan was so cute by her sister's thoughtful and cute actions that she hugged her on her knees and kissed her twice: "Xue Yan misses me so much, so I won't get sick!"
Su Xuanhe on the opposite side made a very disgusting "cut" sound, indicating that he didn't see it.
Although her parents said it would be okay not to go to the town today, Su Qingluan was still a little reluctant after thinking about her experience in the blacksmith shop yesterday. She wanted to see if she could get a few more handy tools at a cheaper price, so she went to After asking Sun Guixiang from the Li family across the street to look after his younger brother and sister, he went to the town.
The blacksmith still looked like he couldn't get enough oil and salt. In the final analysis, the technology was still too backward, resulting in too high labor costs. Su Qingluan himself had no research on steel smelting, although he knew about books like "Tiangong Kaiwu" There must be a feasible solution, but I only know a rough idea and it is useless to say it.
The negotiation was fruitless, so Su Qingluan went to her stall. Unexpectedly, as soon as she got there, Ms. Yang told her that shopkeeper Liang had just sent someone to ask her where she was, saying that she had something to look for.
Su Qingluan raised his eyebrows, took three steps at a time and chased in the direction of Hongfu Tower, and sure enough he caught up with the boy.
When they arrived at Hongfu Building, Shopkeeper Liang had a very troubled look on his face: "Niece Xian, you asked the helper to check if there were any suddenly idle shops. There is news, but..."
He glanced at Su Qingluan and hesitated to speak.
