The stars of eternity gathered into a river of light and gradually moved westward. When the dawn rose in the east, the young men and women had already completed what they should do.
In this era, the age at which concubines passed away was considered very late. It was a standard practice of late marriage and late childbearing. After all, generally speaking, some women would be taken away by men from some tribes when they reached adulthood at the age of thirteen, and so would boys. You can start a family with a young girl when you are around fifteen.
However, in this era, precisely because everything was very crude, there was no agreed-upon standard for this. It was not until the Zhou Dynasty that strict regulations were generally made, requiring everyone in the world to abide by them, and written into etiquette. If someone doesn't comply, they will be shunned.
Confucius said that the age of marriage for women is between fifteen and twenty years old, and for men between twenty and twenty-three years old. Within these two ranges, they are in line with the standards of the Zhou Dynasty. Because women get their haircut at the age of fifteen, and men get their haircut at the age of twenty. This is determined by the time when the bodies of men and women undergo special changes.
The young men and women woke up from their hazy dreams without much tenderness, because there were still many things that should be done.
Ehuang combed her hair like a woman, and placed bronze mirrors in the room. For Yuzai, this was indeed a wonderful night. Of course, if Chisongzi hadn't found Yuzai halfway through coughing, and said something about Qi refining Regarding the question of a scholar’s wife.
The young men and women walked out of the house, welcoming the light of Ji Chun.
Chisongzi told Yuzai that although you and Erhuang are now tangled up, there is one thing that Yuzai should know, that is, it is not easy for Qi practitioners to give birth to children.
This is also easy to understand, that is, the Qi Refiner himself refines essence into Qi and understands everything.
It's a new day, and the work ahead is very busy. Di Fangxun is squeezing A Hong in the factory, but he encounters fierce resistance from A Hong.
"I told you that you don't understand. This can't be created immediately. You ask questions here and there. But you don't believe me when I tell you. You can ask Yijun. He can prove me. Everything you say is correct.”
Danzhu was quibbling, because Di Fangxun read some of his manuscripts, which contained the rifling structure drawn by Su Zai, and marked words to improve accuracy. Di Fangxun asked Danzhu to make it, and Danzhu jumped on the spot. .
I don’t have this ability for the time being! However, my father refused to listen and even beat him.
Just when the worker Ahong was resisting his father, he saw Yuzai coming. Di Fangxun also saw it. He was a little surprised and a little unhappy. He told Yuzai that today is the first day after dusk. Don't you? Why do you come to the factory when you are at home with your wife?
Di Fangxun: "The factory is very dusty and full of fire. It's easy to get angry. Don't come here. Go back and make people as soon as possible."
Ruanzai was speechless, but still told Di Fangxun that although the morning was very important, he could not put down his work. There were still many things to deal with, such as your order.
Dayu passed through the house three times to control the floods without entering. It is said that Concubine Zai casually made nonsense and took Confucius out. Then he pinned the matter of Dayu on Confucius' head, saying that when Confucius was doing great things, he I passed by my house three times without ever entering. I wanted to learn from the ancient sages.
Yu Zai: "When I want to do something big, I hope my teammates won't always give me question marks."
Di Fangxun: "?"
Chisongzi: "?"
Danzhu: "?"
Danzhu poked his head over, but was frightened back by Di Fangxun's glare. The steel pipe in the old man's hand made a clanging sound, and it was clear that he could no longer resist the urge to hit someone.
Di Fangxun: "What are you looking at? These are such joyful days, shouldn't you make me something good to celebrate?"
Danzhu: "That was Emperor E Chenghun, not you and Lu."
[The sound of the pole being danced——]
This father and son have always been like this, but Danzhu felt that after his father returned home this time, he probably wouldn't have much time to come back. He would avoid the limelight in the south and take his wife and children over, which is not nice to say. , the next time I return to the Central Plains I will probably attend the funeral for my father.
In fact, Danzhu also felt a little sad in his heart. Seeing his old father with gray hair and having to worry about many things in the world, he always felt a little guilty. It was like this every time. Of course, this kind of sadness and guilt, Everything would disappear the moment his old father suddenly picked up the steel pipe and walked towards him.
Ruanzai gave Danzhu some unfinished designs that he had drawn before, and told Danzhu that this time your father asked you to make them by name, even without Yijun's help. You know, artillery was first used by Yijun. After all, you only produce equipment for people's livelihood, and he is the arms leader. Now that your father has given you this job, he hopes that you can really give him a good job.
Yuzai helped Danzhu resolve the issue of the father-son relationship. Danzhu also thought about it and felt that this was the case.
It’s rare that my father thinks highly of me
Yu Zai also explained to Di Fangxun, saying that some things cannot be made now. Due to technical limitations, they need to wait a little longer.
"Probably at the end of this summer, when the autumn wind comes, we can return to the Central Plains with the joy of harvest, and return to Taotang when winter comes."

The footsteps of spring are getting further and further away, and Taihao's green color begins to fade away.
Summer is coming.
According to legend, the god in charge of midsummer is Zhu Rong, but who is this Zhu Rong? According to the myth and subsequent changes, the Zhu Rong on duty now should be the fire master Wu Hui.
Among the many emperors in ancient times, among the ancient monarchs such as Zhu Xiang, Ti Ting, and Zhong Zhong, there was an ancient Zhu Rong. He was born in the wilderness of the west. He took fire as his emperor's name and was listed among the people of later generations. The ancient human emperor echelon, this is also the earliest ancient person who called himself "Zhurong" that can be traced back.
According to the direction, he is in the west.
Later, in the early years of the Five Emperors, Emperor Zhuanxu ordered the south to support the sky, and the fire to support the earth. The "heavy" supporting the sky is Jumang, and the "li" pressing on the earth is heavy. Li.
Beizhurong Chongli, this is the most well-known Zhurong in the world. Zhuanxu granted Hengshan to him, so everyone said that the great Sima Rongguang of the Yellow Emperor, a descendant of Emperor Yan, Nanzhurong Jige left Hengshan, and Beizhurong took over. Here, his myth is inherited.
But later, Chongli attacked the Gonggong clan and the Bainan tribe, and the emperor was furious. There are two versions in the myth, one was to kill him, and the other was to exile him. So, Yi was the vanguard and ordered Chongli to His younger brother Wu Hui took over the position of Zhurong, and because Wu Hui's fiefdom was in the hills of the east, near the land of Wuyue, it was named Dongzhurong.
The edge of the swamp.
Chong Li looked far away here and waited until his younger brother came with his back to the rising sun, riding on the water waves and attracting fire clouds.
The god is heroic, tall and majestic, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, and he is furious.
As for Wu Hui, the distant scenery of Hongzhou, which Kunwu and Chuanyuzi had always praised, finally entered his eyes.
