peaceful ancient life

Chapter 5
For the sake of her own daughter's future happiness, An Jin decided to train Li Jun to be a modest gentleman with decent character and good learning.He is more devoted to Li Jun than to his three sons.Li Jun has lived a painful and happy life ever since.
As for An Ning, although she was vaguely aware of the family's decision, she did not object.People here generally marry at the age of fifteen or sixteen. There are those who marry early at the age of thirteen or fourteen, and of course there are also those who marry later.

An Ning felt that since she was here, she had to adapt and abide by the rules of survival here.In her previous life, An Ning was the second child in her family. Although her parents were a little biased, she never suffered any serious grievances. In this life, she grew up in a honeypot loved by the whole family. She is optimistic and cheerful, and doesn't like to care about others.

If you want to talk about Lishan Village, it's really a good place.Not to mention Qingshuixiu's rich products, there are also some handsome men and beauties. An Jin's family is the representative of the beauty of Lishan Village, and An Ning is the best among them.And Li Jun is not inferior even standing in front of the three An family brothers. Among them, An Wenye is strict and dignified, An Wenhan is modest and polite, An Wenyu is sunny and cheerful, and Li Jun is gentle and elegant, each has its own advantages.

In the end, just when An Jin had trained people well and was about to bear the fruits of victory, Cheng Yaojin and Feng Yulan sprang out of nowhere, and with a groan, took the fruit away in one bite. He left.
When An Ning found out, she was really disappointed, and she was really sad for two days. If you want to say that An Ning has any love for Li Jun, she has nothing. After all, she is in her thirties combined. , for a little boy who watched him grow up, he really can't feel the love between a man and a woman. He just thinks that when he grows up, he will marry someone anyway. Instead of marrying a stranger who doesn't know or understand It is better to marry Li Jun.

After all, Li Jun is so good-looking, and An Ning is a standard face control, as long as he is good-looking, he likes it.Originally thought that it was a high-quality cabbage that belonged to him, but he was so humiliated by the pig. Of course, the cabbage was talking about Li Jun.Moreover, the two grew up together, childhood sweethearts, and they also know each other better. Besides, Li Jun is also very clear about his emotional peace.

Although the social atmosphere in Daliang State is relatively open, it is not uncommon for couples to reconcile and divorce. It is not uncommon for widows to remarry after reconciliation, or it is normal for widows to remarry, even if some girls and boys accidentally see each other and want to get married. It must be ordered by the parents, and the words of the matchmaker can be fulfilled, and some indecent things like cheating, giving and receiving in private, etc. are not allowed.

After losing him, he can only obediently marry the person arranged by his parents, after all, this is in ancient times.

Of course, An's parents will definitely find her a good family at that time, but I don't know if that person will have as good looks as Li Jun by then, and the Li family has a simple population, and Li's parents are also honest People are very easy to get along with, plus Li Jun's feelings for him, An Jin has trained Li Jun to be very good-natured and very responsible, even if Li Jun becomes an official in high school in the future, it probably won't matter It is a pity that the cooked duck just flew away like this, and it makes me sad to think about it.

An Ning herself has never thought of running away from marriage or going out to struggle to make money. In her opinion, this is purely full of food, and she is trying to die.

Think about how a delicate girl like myself, or a very beautiful girl, will live after escaping?It would be nice not to be caught and sold.You must know that this was in ancient times, a patriarchal era where men were superior to women, and a weak woman was alone and wanted to earn a good life with her hands?Hehe, that's really an international joke.

Besides, I live well at home, have food and drink, have enough food and clothing, the whole family spoils her, don't let her do any work, even don't want to let her do the laundry, and raise her delicately of.There is no need to go out and ask for trouble.Take ten thousand steps back and say that if you stay here, you will be married off. Don't you need to marry if you leave here?Obviously impossible, so it's better to live an honest life.

An Ning struggled for a long time and decided not to think about it anymore, she stretched out her hand and pulled the quilt to cover her head, and went to sleep.
The next morning.

An Ning, who had a good night's sleep, got up early, and when the peach blossoms came, she took the half of the sweet-scented osmanthus cake left over from yesterday to play with her little sister Liu Miao'er...

In the next few days, An Ning either went out to play with Taohua and the others every day, or practiced calligraphy at home, read travel notes, played the flute, entertained herself and made her mother and grandma happy by the way, and lived a very leisurely life.

The jade flute in An Ning's hand was given to her by an old man from Lishan Village, Mr. Yu. She cherishes that jade flute very much. Although the quality of the jade flute is not good, the sound quality is very good.Old man Yu lived alone in the village, and there was only an old servant, a dumb man, who was in charge of his daily life. No one knew his name, but his surname was Yu.I can't get married and have no relatives. When I get old, I will settle down in this village and live here for the elderly.

Grandpa Yu liked An Ning very much. Apart from staying at home when he was young, An Ning spent most of his time with him at his grandfather's house, listening to his stories or reading travel notes at his house, and pestering him to learn martial arts by the way. None of them succeeded, but An Wenyu, who followed An Ning, took advantage of it.

Old man Yu treats An Ning as his own granddaughter.He thought that a delicate and tender girl like An Ning didn't need to learn those things, as long as she was happy every day, so he taught An Wenyu all the boxing skills in his hands, anyway, he himself likes to learn these things , so that he can properly protect An Ning and prevent others from bullying her after he has learned it well.

Of course, An Jin did not object to the fact that An Wenyu didn't like reading and went to learn martial arts. It was just that An Wenyu had to continue reading and writing while practicing martial arts. Even if he wanted to take the road of martial arts in the future, he had to know Word.By the way, I personally went to the old man's house to intercede, and asked An Wenye and An Wenhan to practice along with them, not to mention how hard they practiced, as long as they can keep fit.

An Ning is playing the flute following the old school.It's a pity that the old man was old and passed away when An Ning was nine years old. At that time, the old man was already 92 years old. Needless to say, this age is considered a long life in ancient times, even in modern times.

This afternoon, the sun was shining brightly. An Ning was sitting on a stone bench under the grape arbor in the yard, leaning against the stone table, holding a book in one hand, resting the other on the table to prop up his forehead, reading a book while basking in the sun... …

The sun shone on my body, it was warm and comfortable, and I felt like I was about to fall asleep...

When An Wenye returned home, the first thing he saw were a few vines curling down in the yard. Next to him was a girl sitting on a stone bench with her back to the gate. A pink ribbon gently tied her temples.A breeze blows, and the hair flutters with the wind like a dream, like a picture scroll, which is indescribably beautiful.

An Wenye walked up to An Ning's side slowly, patted her on the head and asked, "What are you looking at, so engrossed." As he spoke, he took away An Ning's book.He turned it over in his hand.

An Ning looked back at An Wenye and said with a smile, "Brother~, you bullied me as soon as you came back. Are you my real brother?" Then he looked behind him: "Where are my second and third brothers? Did you come back?"

"It's in the back." An Wenye shook the book in his hand: "Haven't you read this one? Have you read all the books I brought you before?"

"Brother~ You haven't come back for two months, why don't you finish watching." An Ning pouted.

"Okay, okay, it's all the big brother's fault, it's done." An Wenye smiled helplessly, turned and walked into the house: "Let's go, big brother brought you a few more books, come in and see if you like it like."

"Brother, you are the best~" An Ning happily followed behind An Wenye.

When the An family came in from the gate, there were two wing rooms on the left and right, the hall in the middle, and then three main rooms side by side.All are large brick houses with green bricks and green tiles.On both sides of the gate and near the door, an earthen embryo room was built, one was used as a stove room, and the other was used as a bathroom for washing.And let people build a high courtyard wall around the courtyard, enclosing the front yard and the back yard together.

Anjia’s house is quite big in the countryside, not counting the houses in the middle. The front and back yards are each one mu of land. In the front yard of An’s house, there is a decades-old banyan tree with luxuriant branches and leaves. There is a stone table and several stone benches, and there is a grape trellis next to it, and there is a well near the kitchen.In the backyard of An's family, a cow shed and a wooden house for storing tools were built, and the remaining open space was used to grow vegetables.A large cellar was also dug under the wooden house for food, dried vegetables, wine and so on.

As soon as the two entered the room, they saw An Nuannuan doing needlework in the living room, and they yelled in unison: "Mother!"

An Nuannuan raised her head when she heard the sound, and when she saw that the eldest son had returned, she got up and asked, "Wen Ye is back, are you tired? Come on. Sit down and rest for a while."

"Not tired." An Wenye strode forward and sat on the stool next to An Nuannuan.

An Ning followed closely behind and sat down beside her.

An Nuannuan poured a glass of water for An Wenye, looked at Brick in the direction of the gate and asked, "Are you alone? Why didn't your brother come back?"

Seeing her elder brother drinking water, An Ning hurriedly replied, "Yes, it's at the back."

"Well, I met Aunt Qiu and her daughter in the village on the road. Anyway, our bullock cart was able to sit down and took them along the way. I got off at the entrance of the village and walked back by myself. I asked Wen Han and the others to see Qiu off first. My aunt and wife are coming home." An Wenye swallowed the water and said while handing the package in his hand to An Ning: "Hey, here is the book for you, take a look."
