Chapter 170 Proposing marriage, asking for the name, and matching horoscopes

Su Kun's expression relaxed a lot after listening to Yang Zhengshan's words.

"In that case, we agree to your marriage. But I hope you can give us a few months for the wedding date!"

Yang Zhengshan asked: "So when do you think the wedding date is appropriate?"

"You can decide the specific wedding date. After all, Qingyi is the head of our Tianqing Sword Sect. Before she gets married, we need to choose a suitable new head." Su Kun said.

Yang Zhengshan felt that this request was not excessive. It would take some time for handover after leaving the job, not to mention the change of the head.

However, Yu Qingyi, who was sitting in the first seat, frowned.

She was thinking about who was suitable to take over the position of the head.

This position of the head is not so easy to do.

Both the strength and ability must be able to convince the public.

In fact, among the disciples of her generation, Luo Feiyu is the most suitable, but Luo Feiyu wants to be an official, so he cannot be the head.

Except Luo Feiyu, Yu Qingyi couldn't think of a suitable person for a while.

Either she is not strong enough or she is not old enough.

If she is given a few years, she will definitely be able to train a qualified leader.

But a few years!

Yu Qingyi frowned even deeper.

She wanted to get married earlier. In a few years, she would be an old woman.

Thinking of the old woman, Yu Qingyi's eyes lit up and her eyes fell on Hua Jinqiu.

"Uncle Hua can be the leader!"

The words in her heart blurted out.

"..."

Everyone in the hall looked up in astonishment.

There is nothing wrong with this, but it is a bit wrong to put it here and say it from Yu Qingyi's mouth.

They just said that Yu Qingyi could only get married after the new leader was selected, but Yu Qingyi selected the new leader.

Girl, how anxious are you!

Yang Zhengshan couldn't hold back his smile.

My wife still likes me very much.

Su Kun looked at Yu Qingyi helplessly, with a kind of resentment in his eyes.

Hey, where is your usual calmness and coolness?

Can't a grown-up girl be more reserved?

"Puchi!"

Hua Jinqiu couldn't help laughing.

"Haha, it seems Qingyi is anxious. If so, I will be the head for a few years. Do you have any objections?"

As a woman, she can be most considerate of women.

Hua Jinqiu thinks it is a good thing for Yu Qingyi to get married, so that she won't have to live alone for the rest of her life.

In this case, she is naturally willing to help Yu Qingyi.

Isn't it just being the head for a few years?

She is not so old that she can't move, nor is she as lazy as Su Kun, the old man.

Yu Qingyi also reacted at this time, and couldn't help but blush again.

What else can Su Kun say, he can only say: "If so, you decide the rest."

The rest is simple. As long as Su Kun has no objection, others will not have much objection.

The matter has been finalized. Yang Zhengshan sat in the Tianqing Sword Sect for a while and then got up to say goodbye.

When he left, Su Kun and others personally sent him down the mountain.

After Yang Zhengshan left, Hua Jinqiu and Yu Qingyi returned to the house where Yu Qingyi lived.

Looking at the extremely simple boudoir, Hua Jinqiu couldn't help but sigh softly in his heart.

Which daughter doesn't love red dresses?

But how can the children of Jianghu focus their energy and thoughts on red dresses?

However, thinking that Yu Qingyi is going to get married, Hua Jinqiu's mood has improved a lot.

"Uncle, I'm sorry!" Yu Qingyi said a little unkindly.

"What's there to be sorry about? It's the Tianqing Sword Sect that delayed you, not you who are sorry for the Tianqing Sword Sect!" Hua Jinqiu said casually.

She can only be trapped in the Tianqing Sword Sect for her whole life, and now she can't leave even if she wants to.

But Yu Qingyi is different. Yu Qingyi is still young and can still get married.

"If it were an ordinary family, I'm afraid you would have had a group of children long ago!" Hua Jinqiu said with some heartache.

The Tianqing Sword Sect raised Yu Qingyi, but it also made Yu Qingyi suffer a lot.

The marriage was arranged in a hurry, but it still didn't happen.

Yu Qingyi tied her hair into a bun since then. In the following years, her master wanted to find another marriage for her, but she refused.

Hua Jinqiu felt sorry for Yu Qingyi at that time.

But they didn't expect that Yu Qingyi would find a marriage this time, and the object was a third-rank commander.

Now Hua Jinqiu was happy for Yu Qingyi, but also worried about her future.

She was happy that Yu Qingyi was going to get married, but she was worried that there were always many things in the official family, and she was afraid that Yu Qingyi couldn't handle it.

The two sat together and talked about some topics about women's families.

Although Hua Jinqiu had never married, she had never eaten pork, but she had seen pigs run.

She had heard a lot about the secrets of many official families, and she felt it necessary to tell Yu Qingyi about these things.

However, Yu Qingyi knew the situation of the Yang family very well, and those secrets in the back house would never happen in the Yang family.

The family rule set by Yang Zhengshan that a concubine can only be taken if the man is 30 and has no children prevented most of the shitty things in the back house.

In addition, no one in the Yang family had any bad intentions, so the Yang family was very harmonious and there were no major conflicts.

Listening to Yu Qingyi talking about the situation of the Yang family, Hua Jinqiu's worries disappeared.

...

The next morning, the sound of blowing and beating sounded at the gate of the Tianqing Sword Sect, and the matchmaker came to propose marriage with the gift of selection.

The matter has been decided by both parties, and the marriage proposal is just a process.

Soon, the matchmaker left with Yu Qingyi's birthday and horoscope.

The next step was to ask for names and Najib. To ask for names was to take the woman's birth date and place it in front of the ancestor's shrine to see if there was anything unusual. This matter was handled by Yang Mingcheng, who quickly returned to Anning County with a few followers.

As for Najib, who is also a horoscope, this matter was handled by Wang and the matchmaker together.

Yang Zhengshan cannot stay in Yuanhe County for too long. After all, there are still many official matters waiting for him to handle in Anyuan City.

On the second day of the marriage proposal, Yang Zhengshan came to the Tianqing Sword Sect again. This time he came to discuss not the marriage, but the matter of borrowing someone and letting Luo Feiyu become an official.

Su Kun naturally agreed to this, because Yu Qingyi had already told him.

In addition to Yu Qingyi's mother-in-law and maidservants as dowry, the Tianqing Sword Sect will also give Yang Zhengshan ten disciples to serve as the Yang family's bodyguards.

This is actually an employment relationship. The Yang family pays monthly payments to these disciples, and these disciples follow the Yang family's arrangements and are responsible for guarding the Yang family.

Asking the Azure Sword Sect, which only has a few dozen disciples, to take out ten disciples at once, it seems that this will have a great impact on the Azure Sword Sect, but in fact it is not the case.

The Tianqing Sword Sect is not a sect that once you get started, you cannot leave it for the rest of your life.

The Azure Sword Sect accepts disciples based on their qualifications, and after the disciples grow up, they also look at their cultivation and potential to decide whether to stay in the sect.

If the cultivation level does not improve after several years, then they will let the disciple leave the sect.

The reason why this is the case is because there are not enough resources.

Everyone in the Yang family relied on spiritual spring water for their cultivation, while the disciples of the Azure Sword Sect needed a large amount of herbal medicine to practice, the body training realm required medicinal baths, and the acquired warriors needed some specially made elixirs.

Most of the Azure Sword Sect's income is spent on purchasing herbs and elixirs.

With limited resources, they can only focus on cultivating some disciples with outstanding qualifications, while those with mediocre qualifications will be discarded.

This is not only true for the Tianqing Sword Sect, but also for most Jianghu sects.

The disciples who went to work as guards for the Yang family were all disciples with relatively mediocre qualifications. Yang Zhengshan's recruitment of these disciples was equivalent to solving the employment problem of the disciples for the Tianqing Sword Sect.

Such a stable and well-paid job is still very good for those mediocre disciples.

"In a few days, I will ask Luo Feiyu to take them to Anyuan City. You can make arrangements then!"

In the main room, Su Kun said to Yang Zhengshan.

"Well, don't worry, uncle, my Yang family will not treat them badly!" Yang Zhengshan said.

Although these disciples are considered mediocre in the Tianqing Sword Sect, they are all warriors, and there are even two Houtian warriors among them, who are definitely qualified to serve as guards for the Yang family.

After leaving the Tianqing Sword Sect again, Yang Zhengshan set off back to Yuanhe City.

At this time, spring plowing had already begun, and Yang Zhengshan devoted himself to spring plowing as soon as he came back. Although he did not need to go to the fields to plow the land himself, he had to do a good job of supervision to prevent anyone from acting arrogantly and affecting the spring plowing of military households.

This kind of thing is not unheard of. Although Yang Zhengshan has cleaned up all the forts before, don't forget that there are many fire road piers and beacons under the jurisdiction of the Defense Office.

There are generally only five to ten military households in these Huolu piers and beacons, with Xiaoqi as the chief officer. Although it looks very inconspicuous, if the Xiaoqi officer as the chief officer comes in randomly, it will make it impossible for several military households to carry out normal operations. Spring plowing.

Now Yang Zhengshan's main focus is on these fire piers and beacons. He goes to three to five fire piers or beacons every day to check.

He found many problems in some fire piers and beacons, but most of the problems were left over from the past, such as insufficient equipment, insufficient personnel, severely broken buildings, etc.

Of course, he also discovered some greedy bastards. When the general households were using them as livestock, they obviously had cattle for farming, but deliberately did not give them to the military households. Even though the camp above had distributed farm tools, they sold them.

He even found a small flag official selling grain seeds, and he was so angry that he beheaded the bastard on the spot.

For more than ten days in a row, Yang Zhengshan inspected the Huolu piers and beacons. He did not end until he inspected all the Huolu piers and beacons.

In more than ten days, a lot of things happened in Anyuan City.

First, Luo Shang sent two shopkeepers and a dozen clerks over. They took over a shop and a large yard in Anyuan City and prepared to open Jinxiu Fang.

Yang Zhengshan met the two shopkeepers in person, and Luo Shang had obviously told them in advance to start the Xiu Niang School first.

The large courtyard they rented will be the future embroidery school.

The two shopkeepers did a good job in this matter. Yang Zhengshan just asked and let them handle it themselves.

Next, Luo Feiyu brought the disciples of Tianqing Sword Sect to Anyuan City.

Yang Zhengshan directly handed over the ten disciples to Ding Qiu. Ding Qiu was the guard leader of the Yang family. These ten disciples would be his subordinates from now on.

There are also those young men bought by the Yang family before, who are also Ding Qiu's subordinates.

From now on, if everyone in the Yang family goes out, they will bring several guards with them to protect them.

With these disciples of the Azure Sword Sect here, what happened to Yang Yunxue before would probably not happen again.

Finally, the people involved in the smuggling case have been examined, and the Zhizhou Yamen and Bingbei Road have reopened for official business.

The Chongshan Town Press Secretary arranged for a new minister to take charge of the Anyuan Prefecture Bingbei Road Yamen, but there was no new magistrate at the Zhizhou Yamen yet.

This is normal. The assistant censor of the Anchasi is a fifth-rank official with an irregular quota. He usually patrols in different routes. The military preparations, education, sea patrols, Qing army, post stations, etc. of each province.

In short, serving as the military preparations of Anyuan Prefecture is just an internal division of labor of the Anchasi, and does not involve the appointment and transfer of officials, so the Anchasi can make its own arrangements.

But the prefect is different. The appointment and removal of the prefect needs to be assigned by the Ministry of Personnel. From the time Lin Xuan was imprisoned, to the Ministry of Personnel receiving the news, to the Ministry of Personnel selecting suitable officials, and then to the new official taking office in Anyuan Prefecture, it will take at least two or three months.

Originally, Yang Zhengshan thought that these things had nothing to do with him, so he just learned about them and put them behind his mind.

But he didn't expect that the new assistant censor of the military preparations would come to his door the day after arriving in Anyuan City.
