Matrilocal Marriage - Chapter 188
Yun An looked at the pile of things in his hand and was speechless for a long time.
Where is the recipe for giving birth to children? It was clearly a wad of silver bills and… a piece that seemed to be a land deed.
Lin Buxian leaned over when Yun An was silent, holding the silk kerchief on his eyes.
“this is……?”
“Silver ticket, also…what is it? It’s like a land deed but it’s different. Look at it.”
Lin Buxian took a stack of things and turned them over one by one. It was a stack of silver bills with a denomination of ten thousand taels. It was more than twenty. There was also a tarpaulin paper of quite a few years. The handwriting on it was a little blurry. Without affecting reading, the days when Lin Buxian swept through the first paragraph were actually older than her age. Looking at the words on the deed book, Lin Buxian couldn’t help exclaiming: “This is my mother’s… dowry! ”
“What?!” Yun’an was taken aback, recognizing the contents of the deed, as if it was a land deed of one hundred acres in a place called Ezhou? ?
“Mother, why did you leave such a valuable thing to me?”
Lin Buxian pursed her mouth, and murmured the answer. She took the wooden box and searched it carefully, and she found a mezzanine in it. Pulling it apart, she took out a letterhead that was so big and folded in half.
It was written in the letter paper: Don’t worry about it. These banknotes are my mother’s personal money over the years and have not gone through the accounts of the mansion. For your home. The blue note is written in the name of An’er. If there is an opportunity to return business to agriculture, it is a safe retreat. There is a private stamping mold in Yuzhu. Whenever the correspondence is mentioned, if the selfless stamp is insincere, don’t be credulous. My son cherishes.
After reading Mrs. Lin’s letter, Lin Buxian, who managed to stop her tears, covered her mouth, and the tears broke again.
Yun’an also had mixed feelings. Lin Buxian took care of it and comforted him, and the words “worry for a mother who walked a thousand miles” flashed in his mind, and he couldn’t help but miss his family far away in Blue Star.
“Don’t cry, check on us soon. In case the officers and soldiers cheat the prefects, they may be horrified. We will not see our mothers. If Aunt Liu gives birth to a daughter, we will be reunited soon.”
Lin Buxian sniffed, put the silver and blue tickets back into the wooden box, pushed them in front of Yunan, and said, “This is given to you by your mother. You put them in the space and put them away.”
Yun’an is also welcome, anyway, hers belongs to Yixi, and her own space is the safest. She put the wooden box in her arms first. Yun’an asked Lin Buxian, “What is the blue ticket?”
“It’s an anonymous land deed. This land deed is older than mine. It should be the’retreat’ that my grandfather left to my mother. Now my mother has passed it on to you.”
“Retreat? I don’t quite understand…”
Lin Buxian lightly explained: “According to the Dayan Law, merchants are not allowed to hold land deeds for cultivated land except for ancestral homes, ancestral graves, and ancestral halls. The blue ticket is a kind of unregistered land deed. If the government is short of money, it will be marked out. A piece of unowned land, nailed to a blue pile, looped with a specially processed oilweed rope, measured the size of the land, marked the location on the map, and sold it as a blue ticket. To be more specific, the blue ticket is just a contract , The blue ticket holders’ yamen need to be replaced with land deeds before they can be used. Many merchants have blue tickets in their hands, but they are restricted by the law that merchants cannot hold arable land. Most of these blue tickets are commodities for sale, just like mothers. This blue ticket with such a large number of acres is very rare.”
“Can’t the land of Yan State be bought and sold?”
“Yes, farmers’ land can be hereditary, but private sales are not allowed. The number of acres of each farmer’s family is claimed by the head. If you want to own more farmland than your family’s, you have to buy blue tickets.” The people of the two tiers of’and’ business’ do not even have the basic land allocated by the government. They can only buy blue tickets from the government. The workers’ blue tickets can also be used as farmland, but the merchants’ blue tickets can only be used as ancestral graves. , Used for ancestral homes and building houses.”
After listening to Lin Buxian’s explanation, Yun’an understood: Mrs. Lin gave her a 100-acre land deed, which is an unregistered inactive land deed. If one day he and Lin Buxian can leave the business and become a farmer, use it. This blue ticket went to the government to change farmland… She turned into a small landlord, and her identity was innocent, and the government would not hold them down.
Moreover, the anonymous “sex” nature of this blue ticket can circumvent the treaty that does not allow the private sale of the land. It is really exhausted, and it can be exchanged for a sum of money at the worst.
As for why Mrs. Lin didn’t give the blue ticket to her daughter, she chose to give it to her “son-in-law.” Naturally, her trust and entrustment to Yun’an was based on the consideration of preventing dysplasia, and Lin Wei and the Lin clan separated to the greatest extent.
Yun’an hugged Lin Buxian, with a generous gift from Mrs. Lin, feeling that his shoulders were a heavy responsibility.
They waited for about half an hour to turn to Yunan and their wagons. The search was very strict. The seat surface and the boxes in the wagons were required to be opened, but most of the boxes contained valuables. There was nothing other than an eye-opener for the soldiers. reward.
The soldiers guarding the city even compared the portrait of the murderer with Yun’an’s face. Yun’an smiled and faced him, but there was no trace of panic. Upon seeing this, the soldier retracted the portrait and raised his hand to let go.
Lin Buxian was right: Zhong Xiaoting did doubt Yun’an, but it’s a pity that many people on the street saw the appearance of the murderer, and Yun’an couldn’t be the same person. He couldn’t do anything he wanted to plant.
…
Before Yun An ordered the team to speed up at the gate, it had been delayed for a short while, so he couldn’t slow down.
At this stall in Los Angeles, Yun An and Lin Buxian’s love is very heavy, and there is no such leisurely sentiment to go to Zhouzhou.
These Yun’an and Lin Buxian were unspoken, and Mrs. Lin’s thoughts were obviously to let them go out to break out of their own world, which proved that even if the bottom of the big tree is good for the shade, it will inevitably be passive if the tree does not belong to her.
The group traveled day and night for more than ten days and came to Yongzhou.
Here, it seems to be the most prosperous poetry painting stop.
Listen to Saturday: When you leave Yongzhou to the west, the land becomes extremely barren. The humanities and customs of the Central Plains are very different. In some places, the folk customs are sturdy and sand bandits are rampant. However, Yongzhou is also a major trading center. Business travelers who want to leave the customs will stop in Yongzhou to purchase a lot of necessities to prepare for the customs.
On the way, Yunan found a **** bureau and asked the **** to send the letter she wrote to Li Yuan to the capital quickly. In the letter, Yunan explained the whole story of Yu Xianxian’s disappearance, and attached the testimony of a group of people in the house pressing their fingerprints and secretly. I tore up a missing person notice posted by the Luocheng government office and put it in the letter. Yunan apologized deeply to Li Yuan, and then told Li Yuan about the current situation in Luocheng, such as Zhong Xiaoting’s beatings in the street.
After all, Yu Xianxian disappeared when Yun’an and Lin Buxian left Los Angeles. Even if Li Yuan had some emotions, he would blame Yun’an and Lin Buxian on their heads.
Entering the city, Yunan happily turned on the video equipment. After running for more than ten days, everyone was very tired. Only Yunan was the only one who left a carriage and a horse without riding a horse. He chose To walk.
Lin Buxian opened the window and looked at Yun’an who was walking beside the carriage. Seeing her focus and joy, Lin Buxian smiled.
Since the last time I went to ?Zhou Yun’an to ride a horse side by side, Lin Buxian discovered Yun’an’s special ability, which was obviously the same scenery, but she could always find beauty that others could not perceive.
Believe it is the same at this moment, she must have seen something that they didn’t notice, otherwise she wouldn’t be happy like a child? Looking at Yun An’an’s unfavorable profile, Lin Buxian couldn’t help thinking with envy: I really want to see what a picture of the scenery in Yun’an’s eyes is…
…
“Master, ma’am!” On Saturday, he rode his horse and ran over from a distance.
“Call!” On Saturday, he pulled the reins and turned his horse back neatly: “Master, madam, the inn where you are staying has been found, it is in the front street, called’Yongguan Inn’. It’s also a coincidence. There just happened to be left in the inn. There are five rooms now, one room is occupied by the master and the wife, and the remaining four… The four of us squeezed into the room, and we slept with a big shop in the room. The remaining rooms are divided among a few girls and should be enough. There are still sturdy guys in the inn, who specialize in helping guests to take care of the baggage…” When he came to Yun’an on Saturday, he lowered his voice and said, “Although there is no definite evidence for this small piece, I have heard from many friends in the past. The official background of the Yongguan Inn seems to be… ahem, uh… and the Weidianguan that sits on this fief, Yongzhou City is the most city in the Central Plains, to the west is outside the Guan, there is a mixture of fish and dragons, let’s take it So many things… it may not be safe to live in other places. Although the younger ones used to use darts, they rarely come here, but the younger ones, all the people here have to give face to the palace, otherwise…”Zhou Zhou Six’s words turned around and continued: “It’s just that the room rate at the Yongguan Inn is scary. The Lord and Madam’s room requires one gold overnight. It is our room, and one room also costs one or two silver. Here it is. It’s not a meal. You have to order a meal a day. Fortunately, you don’t charge money to help take care of the baggage. Don’t blame the little one for his own sake.”
Yun An couldn’t help but laughed out, and said wholeheartedly: “You have done a good job, thank you for your thorough consideration for us, Jin Yu and similar things are handled as they are today! Assistants like you are by your side, I really saved a lot.” Yunan patted Saturday on the shoulder: “Go, lead the way.”
Saturday could not help but raise his head, his face even more unabashedly joy: “Yes! The little one will use it more and more!”
“Great!”
On Saturday, he laughed from ear to ear, and he was surging. He is also a person who has seen the world. He has seen some polite and courteous people when he walks the dart, but he has never spoken to him like this before. Concealed expression of praise and approval.
Who wouldn’t want to be loyal to a master who can “sell a slave” with “an assistant like you by my side”?
