The end of natural disasters: the daily life of child brides in ancient times

She thought Cui's makeup was done wrong.

Unexpectedly, all the women watching nearby praised it for being beautiful.

Well, maybe there is a Mariana Trench between her aesthetic and that of ancient people.

After Bai Xing'er finished putting on her makeup, the women from each family began to give her gifts.

After everyone had sent their gifts and left, Lu Qingqing took out a small box.

After Bai Xing'er opened it, she saw a pair of white pearl earrings inside and screamed in surprise.

"Daya, this is too valuable, I can't accept it!"

As he said this, he pushed the small box back.

Seeing that she was resisting so strongly, Lu Qingqing simply took out the earrings and put them on her.

She had finally picked this out from the pile of jewelry in the space. It was jewelry that Bai Xing'er could wear.

This pair of pearl earrings were embedded in silver jewelry, which saved them from being taken away by space.

Lu Qingqing looked at the earrings on Bai Xing'er's ears, and they were indeed beautiful.

Although this was the end of the Ming Dynasty, there were still requirements for the jewelry worn by ordinary people.

The wives of ordinary people were allowed to wear silver jewelry and plate it with gold.

You can wear gold earrings and pearls, but you must wear silver bracelets.

Lu Qingqing learned all this from Cui and Lu Yuanfang.

Bai Xing'er touched the pearl earrings on her ears. Although she didn't know how much they were worth, she thought they must be very valuable.

She felt that she couldn't take such a big advantage, but at the moment, she had nothing comparable in her hands.

After thinking about it, Bai Xing'er decided to give the gold particles in her hand to Lu Qingqing.

She stood up and took out a small cloth bag from the corner of her packed bag and handed it to Lu Qingqing.

"Daya, please keep these gold particles for me."

Then, seeing Lu Qingqing's puzzled expression, he explained:

"Just like the food, consider it as you saving it for me."

Only after she said that did Lu Qingqing accept it.

This time, she didn't put it in the space, but put it in the cloth bag in her chest.

Although, according to the nature of the space, you have to accumulate a certain amount of gold before it will be taken away.

But this thing is not his after all. If it goes crazy and takes it away, he won’t be able to produce gold particles to return to Bai Xing’er.

Soon, the laughter of men could be heard outside the courtyard gate.

Lu Qingqing looked out through the door and saw Yang Shulin and several men who came to welcome the bride.

Li Rui and several other young men were blocking the door, and there was a lot of noise outside.

Lu Qingqing hurriedly brought over a bowl of hot noodles and told Bai Xing'er to eat quickly.

According to Tian Funiang, the bride could not eat from the moment she left the house until the evening.

Soon, it was time for Bai Xing'er and Yang Shulin to serve tea to the woman's elders.

The ones acting as Bai Xing'er's elders today are Lu Tianming and Cui.

After they took the tea, they said a few words about mutual respect and love, and about growing old together.

Then, everyone watched Bai Xing'er get on the carriage.

All the villagers in Linshan Village gathered around to watch the fun, and a group of children were chattering and shouting that they wanted to see the bride.

As the carriage drove away, most of the villagers who were watching also left.

In the yard, in addition to the people in the team, Lu Tianming also invited Yang's father and several elders from Linshan Village with whom he had dealt.

At this moment, they were drinking tea in Lu Tianming's room.

As noon approaches, the wives and children of these people will also come over.

After seeing Bai Xing'er off, the women from each family gathered together, worrying about what to cook for lunch.

Normally, at a happy event in the village, it would be good if there were four dishes on the banquet table.

These four dishes also have their own particularities. Wealthier families will serve a dish of meat.

This doesn't mean that the whole dish should be filled with meat, but placing a few slices of meat on top of the plate would be considered respectable in the village.

The other two dishes are stir-fried. If they are stir-fried with a little oil, they are considered rare and delicious.

The last plate contains dry food, mostly multi-grain steamed bread or multi-grain steamed buns.

Wealthier families would add more white flour to the steamed buns.

Nowadays, people lack oil in their stomachs, so adding a little oil to the dishes will make them taste delicious.

Usually, when children hear that their parents are going out for a banquet, they will cry and make a fuss to follow.

Of course, most families will bring their children with them.

After all, the food at the banquet is definitely better than what you eat at home, so it can be considered as a tonic for the children.

After discussing for a while, they decided that each family would prepare three dishes together.

The most popular dish among all the shops is blood tofu made from pig blood after slaughtering the pig.

Lu Tianming distributed some of the pig blood that was made to each family.

Nowadays, stewing cabbage with blood tofu can be considered a meat dish.

In addition, each family would serve a vegetarian dish and a plate of multi-grain steamed buns, and that would be about it.

Lu Qingqing didn't serve blood tofu, which Qin Lang loved. He had already eaten half of the one he was given.

Lu Qingqing didn't plan to contribute the rest.

On the contrary, there are still several buckets of bone soup stewed before. When the time comes, I can fill a large bowl with more bones in it and it will be a good meat dish.

After the arrangement was made, the stoves in each household began to work, and soon the aroma came from the kitchen.

Soon, the women and children from each family in Linshan Village also came over.

The women and children had their hands full.

In addition to bringing copper coins as a gift, the woman also brought a table over.

The children held stools, bowls and chopsticks in their hands.

When Cui saw this, she was very happy. After they arrived at the mountain village, they ate at the simple kang table.

There are no proper tables, chairs or benches to entertain guests, but I didn’t expect they all thought of it.

Cui hurriedly welcomed Yang's mother and several other women into another room.

As for the children they brought with them, they played together with the children in Lu Tianming's team.

Each restaurant only makes two dishes, so it’s quite quick.

Soon, the meals for each family were ready and kept warm in the pot.

When the time was almost up, Cui began to direct each family to serve their dishes.

As the dishes came up one by one, the adults were still reserved, but the children could not help themselves and kept drooling at the meat dishes.

Especially when Lu Qingqing's big bone came up, the children sitting there all took a deep breath, wishing they could smell it more.

Lu Qingqing directly brought out a basin of this big bone.

The women thought it would be better if every table could have some, so they found a few more bowls and divided the food into small bowls.

At this time, there is a pot on each table.

When the hosts at each table started to eat, the guests also started to pick up their chopsticks.

The bone soup was the first thing to be distributed among the tables.

Everyone drank a bowl of hot bone soup as soon as they came up, and the atmosphere afterwards was also very good.

Later in the meal, the men at the table started to call each other brothers.

"Brother Lu, you are really generous. Compared to before, you are also wealthy masters. It is an honor for me to be able to make friends with you!"

"Yes, yes. If you have any problems in the future, feel free to come to me. I have five uncles and they are influential in Linshan Village."

After this banquet, Lu Tianming's team quickly became familiar with the families in Linshan Village.
