Three Kingdoms

The night sky of the Han Dynasty was full of stars.

This is a scenery that will never be seen by future generations. The twinkling Milky Way is embedded in the blue-black sky, and the stars are dotted. Regardless of their size, they seem to be extremely clear and intoxicating.

The night was deep, but Fei Qian still had no sleepiness. What happened now was so unexpected...

It was quiet all around, except for the stream flowing down from Lushan Mountain in front of him. It made a gurgling sound, jumped happily in front of Fei Qian, and continued to flow into the distance.

Fei Qian picked up a stone, threw it into the water with a "div" sound, and then wrapped the cloak around him more tightly.

Fei Qian's mood was very complicated now. He had slightly anticipated what might happen, but what he didn't expect was that this day would come so quickly and suddenly, catching him completely off guard.

There was the sound of subtle footsteps behind him. Fei Qian turned around and saw that it was Pang Tong who was also coming out wearing a big cloak.

When Pang Tong saw Fei Qian, he smiled and said, "Now do you know why I can't sleep at night?"

Is this...

Fei Qian nodded and said helplessly: "Well, I understand now."

It turns out that the new guy named Xu Shu actually snores, and he snores loudly...

After all, what Fei Qian built was a wooden house. Although the wooden boards were sealed with thatch and yellow mud, they were not as good as the sound insulation effect of later generations of reinforced concrete. Therefore, whenever Xu Shu turned on the train sound at night, the adjacent houses Pang Tong is naturally miserable...

Generally speaking, smart people have more thoughts and think about more things every day. Their brains are more active than ordinary people, so they are more likely to be disturbed at night. They will wake up at the slightest movement, so people like Xu Shu Such loud noises basically put Pang Tong into a vicious cycle in which the more he wanted to sleep, the more he felt the snoring was too loud, and the more he listened to the snoring, the more he couldn't sleep.

In comparison, Zao Zhi lives far away, and he is at the age when he is most sleepy. Moreover, Zao Zhi often runs in the fields and exercises a lot every day, so he went back to the wooden house to sleep. After that, no matter how hard you are struck by lightning, you won’t wake up...

Only Pang Tongyi suffered.

Oh, and now I have to add another Feiqian.

Regarding this matter, Fei Qian was helpless. After all, he knew that snoring was not something he could control if he wanted to. He couldn't let Xu Shu sleep with his mouth blocked every day -

Fei Qian maliciously guessed that in later generations, it seemed that Liu Bei couldn't wait to sleep after seeing Zhuge Liang, but he didn't seem to be like this with Xu Shu. Thinking about it this way, it must be inseparable from Xu Shu, a super snore. Of course, Its five big and three thick looks are not very pleasing either...

Fei Qian patted Pang Tong on the shoulder and said, "I will think of something for you tomorrow, which should help you sleep well in the future..."

Fei Qian wanted to build a sound-absorbing wall for Xu Shu if it didn't work out. Although this might take up a large part of Xu Shu's room, it would solve some problems.

Of course, sound-absorbing sponges and the like were not available in the Han Dynasty, but according to the general principle, you can still use cotton, linen, paper and other similar fiber items to simulate it. As long as the decibel level of Xu Shu's snoring can be reduced, it should be It’s almost acceptable…

"Really?! That's great!" Pang Tong was very happy. Having been tortured by sound waves these days, what he longed for most was to have a good sleep at night.

Pang Tong's troubles are relatively easy to solve, but Fei Qian's own troubles are not so easy to solve.

Recalling the marriage between Liu and Cai a few days ago, I was still lamenting that the marriage between Liu and Cai was a purely political marriage, but I didn't expect that it would be my turn so soon.

Maybe also ask Pang Tong for his opinion?

After all, Pang Tong was from the Han Dynasty and a member of an aristocratic family, so Fei Qian also wanted to know what Pang Tong thought of this type of political marriage.

"Shiyuan, have you ever thought about who you want to marry?"

"Me?" Pang Tong pointed to his nose and said, "It's still early for you to ask this question. It won't be the same in a few years."

Fei Qian said: "That will happen in a few years. I'm not talking about you marrying now, but in the future, what kind of person do you want to marry as your wife?"

"Of course, you have to be gentle and considerate, be proficient in playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, respect your parents-in-law, love your uncles and nephews, and of course you have to be a female celebrity, and you have to be good at mixing soup. And..." Pangtong Balabala couldn't finish talking.

Fei Qian rolled his eyes and cursed in his heart, Pang Tong, is that a woman you are talking about?

He is more like a god...

Fei Qian interrupted Pang Tong, awakened him from his unrealistic fantasy, and said, "Shi Yuan, if you can't choose your marriage partner yourself, but the family appoints someone to marry, what will you do?"

"It's been designated by the clan..." Pang Tong blinked and said, "Then get married." If the family has designated it, what else can be said?

"Ah? What if the wife's conditions are completely different from what you just said?"

"Well..." Pang Tong shook his head and said casually, "...I'd better get married."

"Why is that?"

Pang Tong looked at Fei Qian with an expression as if he had become stupid, and said: "Do you still need to ask? Since the family has designated it, it must be because of other factors, so this is not your matter alone, but How can you think or not think about the relationship between the entire family?"

"Doesn't it feel uncomfortable to marry a woman you have never met before? Or is it weird?"

"Tch..." Pang Tong's face was full of disdain, and he taunted Fei Qian, "Then what else do you want? Have you seen all the women in the world?"

Sure enough, am I still too idealistic?

Or is my understanding in later generations not very suitable for the current situation?

Fei Qian smiled bitterly in his heart. What Pang Tong just said was the most correct choice for the people of the Han Dynasty...

What a noble family!

This is the family.

When there is a conflict between family interests and personal interests, it is often the individual who succumbs. Everything is focused on the family, and everything is for the benefit of the family...

This was the most correct approach in the Han Dynasty. After all, in ancient times, as long as a person was within the family, he would receive protection and various preferential benefits from the family. Naturally, when he grew up, he would need to give back to the family.

Moreover, what Mr. Pang De said is still vaguely echoing in my ears. Yes, even if I don’t consider the family, just for the morality I pursue, what does it mean to sacrifice some of my so-called marriage concepts in later generations...

Pang Tong yawned greatly and said, "Why do you ask so many questions about weddings today? Are you getting married?"

"Uh... I guess..." Fei Qian felt that it was useless to hide this matter, so he might as well admit it, and said, "How is it? Are you surprised?"

"What's the surprise? Isn't this normal? Besides, you're already a lot older and haven't gotten married yet. I originally suspected that there was something wrong with you... Hey, don't go. You haven't said you want to Who should I marry...ah hey..."
