Chapter 0 1: There is a girl who just grew up in Baijia, and she is secretly worried.
Bai is the only daughter of the White House, nicknamed Jane. His father's name is Yu Fengzi Xiuyan, and the locals call it Bai. Although the population of the White House is not prosperous, the family business is declining, and Bai Yufeng himself is a farmer, he is still a figure in Hejian Town.
He is famous for these three things: family background, martial arts and good handwriting.
The villagers described his handwriting as convex. Scholars who know calligraphy praise: Xiuyan's words are wonderful, and the shape follows the meaning of the words, vigorous and powerful; High-spirited, official-oriented, chic. As long as you look carefully, you will find that there are at least four firms in Hejian Town, all of which have the words "Xiuyan" on them.
As for martial arts, there are various opinions, because the White House martial arts are confidential, and Grandpa Four doesn't lose his worth and doesn't show it easily, so most people don't know what it looks like.
Family history is the most important and mysterious of the three items. According to the elders, Bai Jiazu was a great official of the Qing Dynasty, and was banished here for the people because of his words that angered the long live grandfather. As for how old the ancestor Shangguan was, who offended him? It is impossible to know if the Bai family doesn't talk about Wang.
Although the children of the White House also practiced martial arts, they never took the imperial examination. It seems that it is the ancestral motto of this feudal family not to enter the examination room and not to be an official. Through the Spring Festival couplets posted at the gate, we can see that the White House is indifferent to fame and fortune:
Is there no hug in Shangzhi's poetry and calligraphy?
Pay attention to the field and enjoy the cultivation.
In the thirteenth year of the Republic of China, the seven-year-old Zhener reached school age. At that time, there were already western-style schools in society, and many rich families sent their children to school. Zhener, a primary school student talking and laughing in the street, is eager to go to school. Although Grandpa Bai is a bit old-fashioned, he does not exclude new learning. Out of love for his only daughter, he also plans to let Zhener go to school.
However, Jane's proposal to go to school was firmly opposed by her mother. Lady Bai said, "It's just a matter of recognizing two words. It's better to study at home. Look at those two female students in Qian Jie. They are so arrogant that they dare to talk back to her mother. How can they be girls? I don't know what they teach at school. I heard that a woman was studying in the city and eloped with her lover. What do you think this has become? My son can't let her touch this side! "
Jane had to give up and learn to read from her father at home.
Since moving to Taohetun, Hejian Town, the White House Kung Fu has been passed down for four generations, but it will not be passed down to Grandpa Four.
Grandpa Four's two sons are not interested in learning Kung Fu. They have been taking lesbian classes since they were eight or nine years old. After practicing for two years, I can't even make a decent fist. Grandpa Bai was so angry that he called them to him and scolded them, but the two children talked back openly and said plausibly, "Dad! Now that time is long, who will learn this skill? "
"That is, what a pain in the ass. How can anyone still play with broadswords and spears in the army now? "
"Yes! After ten years of hard work, I still can't catch up with the fast gun ... "
While talking and gesticulating, Grandpa Bai was so angry that he frowned and shouted, "Get out! Get out! "
The two boys ran away, and Grandpa Four cried and sighed: "Alas, it's broken. White House Kung Fu has been passed on to me in my life!"
At this moment, Zhener came over and took Dad's hand and said, "Dad! I can't break it. They don't learn from me, you teach me. "
"Well, no, you are a girl and you can't learn."
"Dad, I can do it, I can do it!"
"No, good zhen son, just break it. Well, times have changed, and what should be broken will be broken sooner or later. This reason is understandable, and I am not sad or sad. "
I said I wasn't sad, but the expression on my face was still extremely sad.
Jane saw that her father was sad and said loudly, "Dad, the White House can't break kung fu. Please pass it to me! "
Grandpa Bai looked at Zhen with frowning brows, pursed mouth and unblinkingly dark eyes, which showed that he would never stop learning.
Like a warm current, it slowly flows into the heart of Fourth Master Bai: "Good, good girl, dad will teach you." What he didn't expect was that Zhener was born with soft waist and legs and was very proficient in martial arts. She studies hard and understands thoroughly: it is easy to bend over and cheat, and it is ok to teach in another way. Under the careful teaching of his father, Zhener's martial arts has made rapid progress. A few years later, she acquired extraordinary skills.
Grandpa Bai couldn't help praising his daughter: "Really a heroine of the White House. "
Smart during the day, not only learning martial arts from his father, but also learning housework from his mother. Mrs. Bai sometimes frowned when she was happy. Grandpa four asked her why, and Mrs. Bai replied, "Since ancient times, beautiful women have been unlucky, and foolish women have not lived long. My son is too smart, I am afraid it is unlucky. "
Grandpa four smiled and shook his head, not caring.
Jane has had a matchmaker to propose marriage since she was fifteen. At that time, it was about being suitable for each other and being perfect. Although the White House is called a noble family, it is no longer a rich family. Then it's white. Although she has good facial features and fair skin, she can practice martial arts and strengthen her body, and all parts of her body are fully developed. At first glance, she is a little fat.
In those days, the word sexy was not popular to praise a woman with big breasts and round hips, just saying that she was a little rich. It is hard to say whether unmarried women are rich or not.
At that time, the upper class paid attention to beautiful women: take two steps and one step, and the wind will weaken the slim figure of willow; Ask a question and answer a few words, a virtuous character with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes. It is rumored that Bai Zhener is not only literate, but also strong-willed, which does not meet the moral standards of women's virtue and lack of talent. Therefore, in any case, Jane is not an ideal wife for the children of the gentry. Therefore, the relatives who come to your door are not well-off, and they are not very popular with Grandpa Bai.
When Bai Zhener was eighteen, something happened that her parents didn't know: a girl next door to the White House was Zhener's best friend. That summer, relatives in the neighboring city held a wedding, and the girl wanted to take her to the wedding, saying that the wedding was a combination of Chinese and western, which was very interesting. Come and see it with me!
She didn't want to go, because she couldn't resist the entanglement of her girlfriend, so she agreed. The wedding is really lively. First, a ceremony was held in the church. Jane was particularly shocked by the question and answer between the host and the couple. The following banquet was rich, but the groom's best man was the best, and everyone was full of praise and praise. At the next table behind Jane are several couples in their 40 s and 50 s, and their comments make her hear clearly:
"The groom's boy is ok, but the best man chose the wrong one."
"Who does not say, who chose this? The best man is so beautiful! It is ugly to compare the groom's official. "
"Afraid of than what, this ratio can't tell the difference. Today, it is very interesting. The best man stole the show from the wedding. You see, everyone's eyes are following him. "
"Whose child is this? How old are you? "
"I know, this is the second child of Wang Dianchen's family in Shirengou, studying in the provincial capital."
"No wonder you have such a good posture. You are a great scholar. "
"Ah, I know his father, tall and thin-faced, nicknamed Wang Xiaodian. Well, the days are still in the middle, and I can be regarded as a small rich man. "
"Wang Xiaodian still has such a good son, what's his name?"
"The name is king, and the word is virtuous."
"Where to study? There are seventeen, right? "
……
The best man's name is Wang, taller than the groom's official, with a white face and fine eyes. With a smile on his face, he followed the groom to the table with a hip flask.
Bai Zhener has met many men, but Rainbow Wendao, a foreign student, saw her for the first time, and her heart couldn't help pounding. She occasionally steals a glance from a distance, and when the couple come to the table to make a toast, she will take a close look at them. Wang Yingjun's face, elegant manners, natural and unrestrained manners, decent laughter and graceful figure are deeply imprinted in the girl's heart.
On the way back, her girlfriend asked her in a low voice, "Jane, I can see that you have a crush on the best man of that foreign student, right?" "
At that time, in the cultural departments of some big cities, the trend of free love between young men and women has quietly risen. However, in remote rural areas like Taohetun, people still regard marriage as a traditional concept, believe in parents' orders and matchmakers' words, and some people don't even have a chance to meet before marriage.
Those days were the peak of real matchmaking. Every month or two, a matchmaker goes to the White House. Jane never dares to choose a future husband. It's impossible! At this moment, when I heard what my girlfriend said, I couldn't help blushing and quickly stopped: "Alas! Don't say that. Who has a crush on him? Where is this? "
Although the words were negative, the shy expression on her face made her girlfriend more convinced, so she enthusiastically suggested, "Hey, do you want your dad to talk to the matchmaker?"
Jane's face turned cold. She said angrily, "What's the matter with you? Besides, I'm bored! "
My girlfriend begged for mercy and said, "Well, well, can't I stop talking?"
True son is not really annoyed. She thought to herself: Tell Dad directly? Absolutely not. This is about your own behavior. If you are Rainbow Wendao, you can't say anything. However, there is a ray of hope in the girl's heart: there is still some reputation in this hundred-mile White House in Fiona Fang. Since his family is a small rich man not far from here, maybe the matchmaker can finally bring the media to his family.
That night, Bai Zhener had a dream, in which she really married the king. Wang asked her in the bridal chamber, Bai, can you be loyal to me all your life? Whether I am poor or rich, healthy or sick, you will never leave me until the end of my life.
Bai Zhener was in a good mood and vowed: Lixian, don't worry, I can do it! At this time, she seemed to realize that she was dreaming and said to her heart, this is not a dream. If you really don't say that you are poor, I will accompany you for a lifetime.
Next chapter: Shu Zhen's dream came true when she heard that her father forbade her to get into trouble.
