Zhao Feng was stunned.
Give me the money and hurry up. Why?
Gu Zhengchen is not a fool. The Ming Dynasty's "Laws and Orders" clearly stipulate:
If you promise to marry a girl, and you have signed a marriage certificate and made a private contract, but regret it frequently, you will be flogged fifty times.
If the husband's family regrets, the sin will be the same.
In other words, after writing the marriage contract, whichever party reneges first and breaks the contract will be flogged fifty times.
The Ming Dynasty followed the legal system of the Tang and Song Dynasties and set up five punishments, namely whipping, cane, punishment, exile, and death. Flogging is the lightest punishment, and wattle sticks, bamboo boards, and bamboo sticks are often used.
The Tang Dynasty was relatively free, and those who were spanked could choose to be spanked on the legs, back, or butt. The Song Dynasty allowed the cane to be broken with a cane on the buttocks. Instead of fifty small sticks, only ten large sticks would be enough.
But Daming, he can only spank...
Gu Zhengchen is weak and doesn't want to suffer fifty vitex sticks. Since the Song family is so anxious to regret it, I'll give you the money and hurry up.
Zhao Feng was confused by Gu Zhengchen's actions.
Gu Zhengchen, who used to be submissive in the past, has become so tough, with a hard edge in his bones!
After Gu Zhengchen finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards his mother and sister, heading towards the door.
"Gu Zhengchen, stop!"
A shout came out.
Gu Zhengchen stopped and turned around, only to see a pretty girl staring at him angrily, with her gentle lips slightly open and her face a little pale.
"Ya'er, go back."
Zhao Feng hurriedly scolded him, saying how could he come out of his daughter's house casually.
Zhao Yaer did not listen to her father's words, but looked at Gu Zhengchen: "Don't you just dislike the small amount of money your father gave you, so you don't want to regret the marriage? Tell me, how much money do you need before you agree? Eight dollars, ten dollars, fifteen dollars?"
Gu Zhengchen shook his head, looked at his "fiancée", and said coldly: "This is not a matter of money. When you shut my mother out and refused to help, weren't you just planning to take this opportunity to torture her?" Forcing the Gu family to break off the engagement? Perhaps you have already started looking for another family, right? Now that you have made it this far, why should you care about your reputation? "
The expressions of Zhao Feng and Zhao Yaer changed.
Zhao Yaer said quickly: "Don't talk nonsense, as long as you are willing to take the initiative to annul the marriage contract, I can ask dad to give you ten dollars!"
Gu Zhengchen looked at Gu and Gu Qingqing: "Let's go home."
Seeing that Gu Zhengchen was neglecting her, Zhao Yaer shouted anxiously: "Gu Zhengchen, the imperial examination has been cancelled. You are just a poor candidate who will never succeed. Why should you be worthy of me? Isn't it right to take the initiative to regret your marriage?"
Gu Zhengchen stared at her and asked Mrs. Gu, "Mother, give me the marriage certificate."
Mrs. Gu took out the marriage certificate from her arms: "Brother Zhengchen, you have to think clearly..."
Gu Zhengchen took the marriage certificate, opened it and took a look, only to see that it read:
With his feet on his back, he can pass through the gate of virtue and march across the city for as many as 100 people. To describe the celebration of IKEA, I dare to pay tribute to the book of rulers. With the help of the matchmaker Zhang, Zhao Yaer was arranged to marry Gu Zhengchen, and they enjoyed the joy of Qin and Jin, and they were happy for ever...
This is the result of two wishes, no words can be said. Now that I want to have proof, I have made a marriage certificate and kept it.
Gu Zhengchen sneered, looked at Zhao Ya'er, stabbed, tore the marriage certificate in his hand, and threw it at Zhao Ya'er: "You remember, it's not that your Song family regrets the marriage, but that I, Gu Zhengchen, don't want you anymore, and I would rather suffer five floggings." Ten, I don’t want you either!”
"you!"
Zhao Yaer's face turned red with anger and tears were about to fall.
"Is the Zhao family leader satisfied with this result?"
Gu Zhengchen looked back at Zhao Feng, said coldly, and strode away from the Song family with Gu and Gu Qingqing.
After going out, Mrs. Gu looked at Gu Zhengchen, who had a determined look on his face, sighed, and stopped blaming her.
Gu Zhengchen looked relaxed, the Zhao family was not a good family, and Zhao Yaer was even more heartless and brainless. It would be better if the marriage was resolved as soon as possible. If it is delayed for a few days, the marriage will be burdened by the time the Gu family turns over.
There is no time for them to waste, so if they keep cutting off, they will suffer chaos instead!
Returning to his home in Dayan Village, Gu Zhengchen entered his room, sat behind the desk, played with the copper coins in his hands, and thought about a way out.
The Gu family is now in a desperate situation.
If this continues, I will probably have to go to Huangjue Temple to beg for food.
In the past, Gu Zhengchen had no ability to survive. He believed in the scholar's philosophy that "gentlemen are always poor, and villains are poor." In addition to reading and writing, he never even touched a hoe.
Poor?
Poor your sister!
I don’t want to be poor, I want money!
Gu Zhengchen put away the copper coins, picked up the brush, unfolded the paper, and wrote down the dozen or so wealthy families in Teng County, marked his preferences, and thought about and calculated each one.
The Sun family is in the medicine shop business, so they have old medicinal materials, but they can't handle this.
The Liu family has 300 acres of land and is a womanizer. I can't handle this.
The widow of the Wang family is rich and a womanizer, this...
I bother!
It can't be done, it can't be done.
Evil Gu Zhengchen, please don’t dirty my soul. I am very pure and I still want to work hard...
Liang family, great show.
Are you a seasoned drama addict?
Gu Zhengchen smiled.
Although we can't sing, we still listen to "The Legend of White Snake" a lot. I think we can gain some benefits by using "The Legend of White Snake", right?
etc!
In February of this year, Lao Zhu issued an edict from the Ministry of Rites to ban the teachings of teachers and musicians from all over the world. They were not allowed to use ancient sages, emperors, loyal ministers and righteous men as their top performers. Anyone who violated this would be punished.
What does Lao Zhu think? It stands to reason that "ancient sages, emperors, loyal ministers and righteous men" belongs to the main theme and should not be banned, but should be sung loudly. Why is it banned?
The main theme of the ban is just that, and it also includes the sentence "Those who pretend to be immortals, and those who are righteous husbands and chaste wives, filial sons and grandchildren, and those who encourage people to do good are not subject to the ban." Among the ancient sages, emperors, loyal ministers and righteous men.
It’s good that there are no political risks, so as not to lose your head because of a drama...
Who is a drama addict who doesn't love "The Legend of White Snake"?
"Ask where Lang Jun's family lives. I'll come to visit you some other day and say thank you."
"The Han family lives outside Qingbo Gate, west of the small bridge next to King Qian's Temple. Why bother with such trivial matters? How dare you visit Han Wei?"
Gu Zhengchen hummed, looking for a feeling, and began to write the lyrics of the drama "The Legend of White Snake". He didn't stop writing until Gu Qingqing called for dinner.
Two yellow nests, a bowl of refreshing clear soup, and black sauce, salty.
Seeing the worry on his mother's brows, Gu Zhengchen smiled and said, "Mom, just leave the family affairs to me. Don't go out these days."
Mrs. Gu smiled bitterly: "Brother Zhengchen, eat more."
Gu Zhengchen swallowed the cornucopia that cut his throat and asked, "Mom, I heard that Rich Man Sun in the city is addicted to sweets. Is it true?"
Mrs. Gu nodded: "That's true. Why do you ask this?"
Gu Zhengchen took a sip of the soup and calmed down: "It's easy to handle if it's true. There's no sugar at this time, right?"
"What is sugar?"
Gu Qingqing looked at Gu Zhengchen doubtfully.
Gu shook his head. Wherever there was white sugar, there was always brown sugar.
Gu Zhengchen had some calculations in his mind.
Although the term white sugar existed in the Tang Dynasty, the white sugar at that time was not pure white or snow-white, but white with a yellowish tint.
Before Jiajing, there was no sugar.
White sugar is good.
One of the hugely profitable trades that later Dutch colonists carried out in East Asian waters was the sugar trade. There was no way this thing would not be profitable...
