Tian Changgong of Luoyu Village really respected Huang Zhiting very much. There were about a thousand people in the whole village, all crowded by the roadside to welcome her.
Huang Zhiting's expression was as usual, even a little indifferent. Only when facing Tian Zhangong, her attitude was barely friendly, and the Yao people were not surprised.
Gao Pangshi has always been in embarrassment. Although there are only about a thousand people in Luoyu Village, but at this moment he is only wearing a pair of obscene pants and being watched by so many people. Even with his thick skin, he can't help but feel a little embarrassed. Embarrassed.
In particular, these Yao girls and daughters-in-law are very different from Han women. Not only are they not shy because of their pragmatic appearance, they will also gather in groups to comment on him, snicker, and even worse Will sing to him.
Although the lyrics they sang included both the Yao people's dialect and a small amount of Chinese, it didn't matter even if Gao Pragmatic didn't understand the lyrics. It could be seen from their expressions that most of them were love songs expressing love.
Huang Zhiting's face was also stinky, and even getting uglier. When she was approaching Tian Changgong's residence, she suddenly turned her head with a cold face and said to Gao Pragmatic: "There are many young widows from the Yao family who have invited you to spend the night at their house. It seems that you have found a place to stay tonight, and you may be very busy."
Gao pragmatic was shocked: "Is it so powerful?"
Huang Zhiting sneered: "Then it depends on whether you are worthy of your name."
Live up to the name? Gao Pragmatic was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that what Huang Zhiting said was probably the word he had made up: it was true.
He coughed dryly and said shamelessly: "This is definitely worthy of the name..."
Then he paused for a moment, and in Huang Zhiting's murderous eyes, he raised his head and chest, with an unyielding and righteous look, and said seriously: "But how can I be such a well-dressed beast?"
Huang Zhiting's eyes softened a little, but her tone was still stiff, and she snorted coldly: "I think you want to be dressed like a beast now, but you can't get it - you don't even have clothes."
Uh, if you don't want the pot, don't open it, okay?
Gao pragmatic touched his nose in embarrassment and said, "Why don't you, girl, help me ask Tian Changgong if you can find some clothes for me to put on first?"
Before Huang Zhiting could reply, Tian Changgong, who was leading the way, suddenly turned his head and smiled: "Don't be anxious, little one. Ah Li has already gone to help you find clothes."
Gao Pingshi didn't expect that Grand Duke Tian could speak Chinese, and he didn't expect that he looked to be at least in his seventies and had such good hearing. He couldn't help but be surprised and said hurriedly: "Thank you, Grand Duke Tian." But he thought to himself: A Li ? This name seems a bit familiar, but I wonder if it could be a poisonous one?
The Grand Duke of Luoyu Village has a kind face and kind eyes, and his eyebrows are two inches long. If he puts on a set of Han Taoist robes and goes out to pretend to be a Taoist master, I'm afraid not many people will believe him.
Tian Changgong said with a smile: "Young man, you don't have to be polite. You are a very lucky person. Helping you is helping ourselves."
Gao Jingshi was stunned for a moment, and said to himself: Is this a polite greeting unique to the Yao people? Or did he see some flaw?
Huang Zhiting fell into thinking after hearing the word "Ah Li" just now. At this time, she asked: "The Ah Li Tian Changgong mentioned, is it Shen Li who was valued by the Grass Ghost Grandma ten years ago and accepted as his successor?"
Tian Changgong still smiled, but there was some emotion in his tone, and nodded: "Yes, little Ali has grown up. He came back to break off the engagement last year, but then the Han army arrived... There was no need to break off the engagement, but the schedule was delayed. Came down and is still in the village."
Huang Zhiting said in surprise: "She is engaged, how could she be chosen by the idiot old lady?"
Tian Changgong shook his head and said: "The grandma selected ten girls from hundreds of Yao villages as candidates. At that time, she had not yet decided who to pass on to, so as long as there are no girls who have lost their virginity, it will be fine. It’s just that you can’t get married again after being selected, so Ah Li has to come back to break off the engagement.”
Gao Jingshi didn't know what the two of them were talking about, but it sounded like this grass ghost lady had a very high status among the Yao people. She could actually choose a descendant from hundreds of Yao villages, and some of her descendants couldn't get married. The restrictions seem a bit similar to those of certain tribal priests and witches in legends.
It's a pity that Huang Zhiting only asked these two questions, then nodded and asked no more questions, and Tian Zhanggong didn't say anything more. After the guests and hosts sat down, they began to talk.
Tian Changgong did not ask Huang Zhiting to produce any physical evidence to prove her identity. Originally, Gao pragmatic thought that it might be because Tian Changgong was illiterate, and even if he was shown the seal, he would not be able to understand it.
Tong Ren Tusi usually spoke Chinese. Since Tian Changgong could also speak Chinese, he and Huang Zhiting naturally talked in Chinese. From the conversation, Gao Pragmatic learned that what Tian Changgong used to judge Huang Zhiting's daughter's identity was her jewelry.
Although Huang Zhiting was dressed in Han family clothes, her earrings and necklace were typical of the Tong family. Needless to say about the earrings, the collar was originally worn close to her body. It was not until she met the people from Luoyu Village that Huang Zhiting quietly pulled it out. Show yourself to others.
Gao Pragmatic didn't pay attention to this detail at first, but now she suddenly realized that the shapes of the two things on her body could only be used by the direct descendants of the Tusi family. No wonder Tian Changgong didn't doubt her identity as a clan daughter, and just chatted with her about Zhongzhou scenery. It seemed that Tian Changgong was very old, but he was not confused at all.
However, I'm afraid Tian Changgong is still miscalculating. Zhongzhou was originally transferred from Siming Prefecture to Nanning Prefecture less than thirty years ago. The Huang family of Siming Prefecture has always been worried about this, all the time. Not wanting to get back the ancestral property, wouldn’t Huang Zhiting’s understanding of Zhongzhou be the same as her understanding of her own back garden? How could Tian Changgong hear the flaw?
In the conversation between Huang Zhiting and Tian Changgong, Gao Pragmatic, a "noble servant", naturally couldn't get in the middle of the conversation. It wasn't until the arrival of a woman that Gao Pragmatic, who was extremely bored, was relieved.
The person who came was none other than "Ah Li" in Tian Zhang Gong's mouth and Shen Li in Huang Zhiting's mouth.
The Yao people originally had no surnames. Later, they gradually had surnames due to the influence of Han culture. But so far, there are only twelve surnames in total, namely Pan, Shen, Bao, Huang, Li, Deng, Zhou, Zhao, Hu, Lei, Tang, Feng.
Gao Pingshi originally heard that Shen Li returned to Yuzhai to break off the engagement at the end of last year, so he estimated that she was only in her teens. Unexpectedly, she was actually a girl in her early twenties, with ordinary facial features and fair skin. Wearing a hat with a tall stand, covered with black cloth and drooping red tassels.
But the most unforgettable thing about her is that her pupils have a faint cinnabar color.
Cinnabar refers to cinnabar and cinnabar, which are red in color. The "Zhu Pi" that Gao pragmatic has seen countless times is of this color.
However, the pupils were red, which was unheard of and unseen, so he stared at Shen Li's eyes, feeling a little dazed for a moment.
"Cough!" Huang Zhiting coughed, but with a sweet smile on her face, she winked at Shen Li and said, "Sister Ah Li, I haven't seen you in eight years, how are you doing recently?"
As soon as Huang Zhiting said these words, the others were fine. However, Gao Pingzhi heard a panic and his face turned pale with fright - you know this girl named A Li, doesn't that mean that others know your origin? Since she knows, doesn’t Tianchang Gong also know?
I am the one who is destined to die, this is about to end!
what to do? what to do? what to do?
Gao Pragmatic never shed tears before seeing the coffin. Although Huang Zhiting's words were equivalent to pulling him to jump off a cliff, he still tried to find a way to save him immediately. Although cold sweat broke out on his forehead, his eyes kept rolling. He was obviously thinking nervously about how to deal with it.
Ah Li, who was on the other side, also smiled slightly and nodded towards Huang Zhiting: "Sister Zhiting." Then she turned to Gao Pragmatic with a strange expression and said to Huang Zhiting doubtfully: "This friend of yours seems to be very... Afraid of me, why?"
