Chapter 57 Dip the pig cage

"That's how it's happening, nothing really happened."

In the hall of the Wang family, Zhang Chao stood there like a suspect and presented a confession. At this time, the seven or eight women also combed their hair and tidied their clothes, and sat aside honestly, as if they were witnesses appearing in court.

Mr. Wang and his wife, as well as his brother, Wang Wu and his wife, were also there. In addition, Ke Wu, the son-in-law of the Wang family, was naturally there, and the rest of Ke Shan and others did not participate outside.

Do not bring out family scandals.

In this matter today, Mr. Wang felt that all his face had been lost to his two daughters.

Originally, he thought that Zhang Chao was drunk and got crazy and took the initiative to provoke his daughter. Who knew that the truth was so terrible. It was his two daughters who took the initiative and even fought because of this.

It's embarrassing, the faces of ancestors were completely discarded.

At this moment, Mr. Wang wanted to put his two daughters in a pig cage and throw them into the river to death.

All seven and eight women confessed their crimes one after another.

"I'll beat you two shameless people to death." Old Man Wang picked up a rolling pin, and Zhang Chao hurried forward to block it.

"Uncle Wang, this matter is actually nothing. If you explain it clearly, it will be fine. It is all the monkey wine from the fifth uncle's family. The wine is too powerful. The seventh and eighth sisters are unable to drink, so they made a little mess for a while."

In Zhang Chao's opinion, nothing happened after all. At most it would be a joke after being drunk and just use it as a joke afterwards.

"The Wang family's face has made these two lose all of them."

Uncle Wang was angry and shy, and the matter was revealed, but the result was worse than expected. If Zhang Chao was drunk and inappropriate, this matter was not good, but easy to solve. But now his daughter took the initiative and took advantage of the drunkenness. This was about to spread. Not only did the Wang family lose its reputation, but the two daughters also had to bear the reputation. In the future, who would marry such a bad reputation?

"I'll beat you to death!" Wang Bo became more and more angry as he thought about it. This time he was really angry. Zhang Chao couldn't stop him at all, so he quickly said to the seven women and eight women, "You guys go back to the house to avoid it first."

Ke Wu also hurried over to dissuade his father-in-law.

Aunt Wang was also crying while crying.

"I will never tell you what happened today. Please come back and ask the villagers who know that this matter is not spreading it randomly. It's okay, and there's no need to fight and kill. Who hasn't made a mistake yet, let alone the two sisters are just drunk and lost their composure."

"There is no airtight wall in the world, so how can this matter be hidden? Instead of waiting for them to be despised and pointed at them in the future, it is better to kill them now."

"Brother Wang, please calm down first."

Finally, Uncle Wang calmed down his anger and sat down again.

But the atmosphere in the hall was still very heavy.

Zhang Chao also felt very embarrassed. He had indeed ignored the importance of fame in this era. It would be fine if outsiders knew about this matter today, but now at least dozens of villagers have witnessed today's farce. If one of them didn't stop talking, then the reputation of seven women and eight women would be over.

Aunt Wang suddenly walked to Zhang Chao and was about to kneel down. Zhang Chao was so panicked that he quickly moved away.

"Sanlang, I know that my family is not worthy of you, but now can you save them? Just treat it as doing good and take them away. This family really can't tolerate them."

"Take them away?" Zhang Chao was stunned. Where did he take him?

Old Mr. Wang was panting there, and he was also a little moved when he heard his wife's words.

"Sanlang, take them away, I will pretend that there are no these two daughters."

"I..."

No matter how you look at it, it seems like a routine. Take them away by yourself. What is this? You have no name or share. Will you be even more unspeakable in the future? To be honest, the seven or eight women are just average, some are malnourished and often work, so their skin is a little dark and their hands and feet are a little rough.

The most important thing is that these two girls are pure country girls from the Tang Dynasty. They don’t know one of them, and they don’t have any knowledge. It’s scary to think about it.

And even if I agree, I can only marry one person. The Tang Dynasty law said that good people are not allowed to marry bad people, and there is another provision that common people are not allowed to be bigamy.

Common people are not allowed to bigamy, they are not allowed to take concubines.

If there is no official lord, it is illegal for ordinary people to take concubines. According to the law, princes can take twelve concubines, princes and first-rank officials can take ten concubines, second-rank eight concubines, third-rank six concubines, fourth-rank four concubines, fifth-rank three concubines...

If only common people who are without officials, titles and honors can only be monogamous, this is also called a common man and wife. Only when they are forty years old and have no children, will the court allow common people to take a concubine. This will only be done with the consent of their parents and their wives. Moreover, taking concubines is prohibited from taking concubines as concubines. Those slaves, musical philosophers, criminals, etc. are prohibited from taking concubines, otherwise they will have to be reborn or even labor reform.

Although Zhang Chao is a master of his son and a good citizen now, his father is a ninth rank official and his seventh rank honor, but his father is able to take a concubine, but Zhang Chao is still not qualified.

With seven or eight women, he can only marry one at most, and the other cannot even take it as a concubine.

Besides, Zhang Chao doesn't want to marry them at all.

It is really hard to accept that the Tang Dynasty girl who has only known each other for two days.

When Mr. Wang saw Zhang Chao's appearance, he felt a secret and understood Zhang Chao's attitude. Yes, Zhang Chao was also the son of a military officer. He still had more than 500 acres of land in his family, and he had the ability to make money like breakfast and kang repairs. He made thousands of dollars a day. He also had an adopted father who was a Duke. How could he be willing to marry his daughter?

It’s not right for the family.

It was my own luxury.

Mr. Wang sighed and said a little lonely, "Don't worry, Sanlang, we know the duty. If you are kind, you will bring seven or eight women to the Zhang family. From now on, they will be the servants and servants of the Zhang family."

"If you feel embarrassed, we won't force it. Anyway, this family can't tolerate them anymore. I'll beat them to death and bury them when I turn around."

You are forcing me, Zhang Chao said helplessly.

This matter is really unfair. It was nothing, but now it was a big deal. If you don't agree, then Mr. Wang probably would have been able to kill seven or eight women. Although it was not the one who beat him to death, he would be unable to accept the responsibility of letting the two girls die because of himself.

But if I agree, I feel forced.

Zhang Chao thought about it and felt that he had no choice.

"Uncle Wang, this is also a blaming me. If I don't come, I won't let everyone come to eat and drink today. If I don't get drunk, I will have nothing to do. This matter...Uncle Wang, why not do this? I will take my two sisters to Zhangjiagou first. They haven't seen each other for a long time with my third sister. I will stay there for a few days and be a guest."

"There is no reason to always be a guest at the three girls' house."

Zhang Chao knew that he must not make any promises or make any promises at this time, otherwise he would really be unable to escape this matter.

After thinking about it, Zhang Chao said, "Brother Wang, you know that my family is selling pastry now. It is pretty good and needs a lot of help. I think it's better to invite two sisters to my help. They can include food and accommodation, and give six dou of millet every month. What do you think?"

"this......"

Uncle Wang did not expect that Zhang Chao had such a solution. Although this actually failed to solve the problem, the two daughters would still face the problem of getting married in the future.

But after thinking about it carefully, this is a bad idea. Let these two daughters leave Wangjiazhuang and go to Zhangjiagou first. As for the future, let’s talk about it later.

Zhang Chao asked Aunt Wang to ask the Seventh and Eighth Lady to see if they were willing.

The two girls woke up all drunk at this time, and they were so scared that they were trembling. They were really afraid that their father would beat them to death. I heard from my mother that Zhang Chao was willing to take them to Zhangjiagou. Although they were just arranged something for them and not marry into the Zhang family, they were still pretty good results.

The matter was decided, and Zhang Chao breathed a sigh of relief.

However, although seven or eight women were exempted from death, they could not escape the crime of living. Uncle Wang used family rules to attack his two daughters, and each of them beat twenty shots. If Zhang Chao and Ke Wu and others had not persuaded him, they would have beaten more and more severely. Even so, the two of them would not have been beaten well.

Mr. Wang and his wife went from house to door to visit their neighbors, and sent wild boar meat as gifts, asking everyone not to spread it randomly.

After such a mess, Zhang Chao couldn't continue to stay in Wangjiazhuang.

I borrowed a ox cart from Uncle Wang and took seven women and eight women and nine women away. I originally thought that only seven women and eight women would go, but nine women would go too. Uncle Wang thought that if the nine women went there, it would be very good if they could earn six dou of millet in a month.

Uncle Wang agreed, but Zhang Chao could not refuse, so he had to bring the three sisters of the Wang family together.

Wang Bo and his wife sent it to the entrance of the village and brought Zhang Chao with the hind legs of the two wild boars and twenty kilograms of wild boar sausages that had been marinated yesterday.

When riding on the old white horse, Zhang Chao was a little listless.

When I came to Lantian, I originally thought I was avoiding Li Shiji and hunting for a few days. Who knew that something happened in just two days. Now Uncle Wang has handed over all three daughters to him, and the pressure is so great.

After rushing for a long time, I finally returned to Zhangjiagou in the evening.

As soon as I entered the village, I saw that my father had already waited for him at the entrance of the village after hearing the news.

"You still know to come back?"

Zhang Chao had to smile with a shy face and said to his father, "Dad, don't be angry, I know I'm wrong this time. Uncle Li and you are both for my own good, but I really don't want to go to Hebei. The battlefield is full of chaos. I haven't even practiced my martial arts well yet, and I can't even ride a horse well. If something happens, no one will be able to take care of you and see you off."

My father was so slapping at him. After Zhang Chao said so hipsterly, he couldn't scold him if he was ready. Thinking about it, since Zhang Chao was unwilling to go to war, he wouldn't go.

"Dad, I will definitely follow your wishes in the future and follow your arrangements. If you say one thing, I won't say two things, I will never go west. As long as I don't let me go to war!"

"Really?" asked the father.

"absolute."

Dad nodded, "That's good, this is what you said. Tomorrow morning, go to Chang'an with me."

"What are you doing in Chang'an?"

"Your adoptive father found a good marriage with you. I think the other party is also very good. I have agreed and will take you to visit someone tomorrow!"

"What! Engagement?" Zhang Chao couldn't help but exclaimed. It was really a wave that had not yet settled, and it was again and again!
