Chapter 78 What does this mean?

Hearing this, Tang Que, nodded, stepped to the west wing room. In the room, Li Yingwan was dressed up by Lan Jie'er. When she saw him come in, she gave him a bright smile in the mirror.

This woman is beautiful, and she looks so beautiful when she dresses up. Fortunately, with the experience of the previous time, Tang Que was not too surprised. "You should discuss with me for such a big deal about Han Li first."

Upon hearing this, Li Yingwan, who was smiling, was slightly stunned, and then said with a dark look: "To this day, Acheng, do you still think I am an outsider?"

Her question made Tang Que difficult to say anything. The woman was silent for a moment and said softly: "I understand your feelings, but you have to think about it for me too? There are couples there who have to share money? Could it be that you think that my money is not clean and afraid it will be dirty..." As she said that, Li Yingwan, who was still smiling just now, had a look of pain on her face.

Today is a great day, and Tang Queshi doesn't want her to do this. Thinking about her experience over the past year, her persistence now seems hypocritical. It's okay to be in the village last year. Since he arrived in the city after the New Year, what he eats, uses, and even lives in is not a cost of the woman's money. Although there is a saying that he will pay back the money before, how can a woman get his penny these days?

On the one hand, it costs money to study, and on the other hand, I am really not rich now. Tang Que despised his hypocrisy in his heart, slowly stepped to the woman's side, reached out to pick up the ebony pearl hairpin on the dressing table and put it on for Li Yingwan.

"Since I entered the county school, I have not used your money for food and accommodation!" Tang Que adjusted the position of the hairpin in his hand, "I didn't mean to share the money with you, I just wanted to know that the reason I married you was just because of your people, not this family fortune."

"I know." After hearing this, Li Yingwan, who was suffering from it, leaned against Tang Que's back and forth softly. She looked at the two people standing and snuggling tightly in the mirror in front of her. She smiled heavily and said in a soft voice: "I understand, I really understand!"

The woman was happy again, but Tang Que was not happy. This was not anger or anger, but he felt like something was blocked in his heart. Although the husband and wife were not concerned about the belonging of money, she was a man after all, but was trapped by money like this. No matter what, it was a worry.

"Well, I'll go change my clothes when I go out." Tang Que patted the woman's face and walked out. While walking, he was thinking about how to find a way to make some money and spend it. He didn't think about himself, but also had to think about his parents. If Tang Zhang pointed to his daughter-in-law and raised her, he would inevitably be unable to speak in front of the woman over time.

But you can't make money by hurrying, so you have to meet a good opportunity. When Tang Que changed his clothes and came out of the house, he happened to see the doorman Lao Gao at the entrance of the second yard and reported that a young man named Zhang was visiting.

Tang Que knew that Zhang Xiangwen was here. He had sent him once before, but today he came along the old road. "Yeah, just bring him in."

After hearing Tang Que's instructions, Lao Gao was slightly stunned. After all, male foreign visitors in this era usually do not enter the inner house. Those who can enter the inner house have friendship with the master. However, have you never seen Mr. Zhang come?

Old Gao waited for a while, and saw that Tang Que didn't say anything more, then turned around and went to the death. After a while, he led Zhang Xiangwen, who was dressed in a newly-dressed manner, and walked in.

Seeing that the disciple led a strange little husband in, except for the Gao family, it was better that the other three girls, including the Gao family's daughter, were trying to avoid it. Seeing this, Tang Que waved his hand and said, "Just be busy with you, this is my brother, not an outsider."

Zhang Xiangwen is a typical familiar person. He is crazy and does not have the reserve that he should have when he is inside the house. After hearing Tang Que's words, he smiled from afar and said, "Yes, your master is my eldest brother. Speaking of which, you should call me the second master."

Tang Que walked towards Zhang Xiangwen, and before he could get close, he smelled a strong fragrance, "What's the smell on you?"

"Incense!" Zhang Xiangwen showed off and walked around the place, "This incense was bought in a Persian Hu shop in Xiangzhou. How about it? It smells good, right?"

Tang Que was speechless. The wealthy and noble families in the Tang Dynasty had the custom of incense for clothes and used it as a fashion. He had heard from Lan Jie'er about this, but he had only seen it for the first time today.

When Zhang Xiangwen was showing off, she saw Li Yingwan who had finished dressing up and left the west wing room. She and Lancao knew that Tang Que had such a sworn brother who was going to send a marriage letter together today. Moreover, the conversation between the two was also heard through the window. Therefore, there was no need to introduce Tang Que to introduce her. She approached her and said with a little bliss, "Is this probably the second uncle of the Zhang family?"

Because the woman was wearing soft-soled satin shoes, Zhang Xiangwen, who was showing off to Tang Quecho, did not hear anyone coming on his back. He turned around and saw a glorious woman in front of him as a polite gift to him. He was stunned at the moment. Tang Que couldn't see him coughing lightly, and the guy suddenly woke up.

After Zhang Xiangwen woke up, he turned his head and shook his eyebrows at Tang Que and made a face. Then he turned around and bowed, "I've seen my sister-in-law Zhang Xiangwen."

Although Zhang Xiangwen pretended to behave well, he was stunned and even winked at Tang Que and was seen by Sister Lan, who was following the woman. The more he pretended to behave, the more she made Sister Lan couldn't help but sneer.

Don't expect him to get up seriously this kid! Tang Que knew Zhang Xiangwen's tone and waved his hand to signal the woman not to let the tea anymore, and said straight: "Are you ready? It's getting late. If you are ready, go."

Zhang Xiangwen took the gift letter handed over by Tang Que and held it in his arms. While following him, he whispered: "Hey! I didn't expect that my little sister-in-law is so beautiful! Brother, I know why you insisted on marrying her."

"Okay, shut up, you." Tang Que did not discuss his wife's habits with others, and he did not take on Zhang Xiangwen's words at all.

After leaving the gate, the woman got on the carriage brought by Zhang Xiangwen and walked in front. Tang Que and the others got on the carriage containing the gifts in the back. The two carriages followed her towards Laoxi Street, the county town.

The woman's mother's home is a courtyard house in Laobei Street, Yunxi County. Just look at the mottled green moss marks on the base of the outer wall of the house and know that this should be an old house passed down from ancestors.

The carriage stopped in front of the woman's house. Zhang Xiangwen, who was active, opened the window curtain and looked out, then said "Huh": "No, giving intermarriage letters is a great gift. Not to mention that the neighbors are all coming to support them, and the family members should come out to greet each other. Why is it so deserted?"

Hearing this, Tang Que turned around and took a look. It was true that although the door of the old house was open, there was not even a single person to greet him outside. Seeing such a scene of being ignored, he couldn't help feeling a little unhappy.

However, this is related to Li Yingwan's face, and Tang Que didn't have much to say, "Marriage is a big deal. There are many things in it, and you may not know it?" Through the curtain, he saw that the woman in front had gotten out of the car and entered the door, and Tang Que also got off the car. It was just a pity that he only saw the woman's back just now, so it was difficult to guess the meaning of the Li family's arrangement from the expression on her face.

After Zhang Xiangwen got off the car, he put on his clothes seriously and walked into the gate with his flat hands holding the gift letter three times in one step.

According to the Tang custom, when sending intermarriage letters, you should choose talented and beautiful among the male relatives. It is best for young people with official positions to serve as letter envoys. Before, Tang Que had no relatives in the city, so the adaptation method was to send it to him in person. However, since Zhang Xiangwen was coming yesterday, the position of the letter envoy naturally fell on him. After all, the two were sworn brothers, and although they were reluctant, they were considered to be a relative. Besides, this kid looked good and dressed in a wealthy family. With him as a letter envoy, it looked better on both women and Tang Que’s face.

Zhang Xiangwen was ahead, Tang Que was half a step behind him, and behind him was the carriage containing the gifts. The two of them walked inward along the wide open door.

There was no one at the door, but as soon as they walked around the archway wall in the door, Tang Que saw that the old and young people stood in the corridor outside the main hall of the yard. When they came in, the eyes of these people naturally stared at them.

"No!" At this point, Tang Que could not understand the marriage customs of the Tang Dynasty, and he could see that it was wrong. It was a festive day, but Li Yingwan and his relatives had no joy on their faces, and even looked at him with a little indifference that was blocked from others thousands of miles away. "What does this... mean?"
