Mrs. Rebirth

"Better?" Lu Zheng asked slightly worried.

"Ah?..." Zuo Shaoqing didn't know why.

Lu Zheng raised the corners of his lips and said teasingly: "I didn't expect Qingqing to want to marry my father-in-law so much that she wept with joy.

Zuo Shaoqing unconsciously reached out and wiped the corners of his eyes, and sure enough, there was still a little wetness left, and his face turned red in disbelief. At the same time, he also realized that the two of them were still on the way, and everything they passed was staring blankly at each other. The people watching them really wanted to cry this time.

But it turns out that Third Master Zuo was reborn, not only his heart was firm, but his skin was also thickened, and he returned to normal after being embarrassed for a while.

"By the way, who chose the date? Wouldn't the fifth day of May be too rushed?"

"Hurry up? I think it's too long, I wish I could marry tonight!" Then go straight to the bridal chamber!

Zuo Shaoqing couldn't hear the ambiguity in his words, but just bit the bullet and pretended not to know, "The emperor ordered the Ministry of Rites to undertake the wedding. With the complicated procedures of the imperial court, I'm afraid there is not enough time."

"Don't worry, I can't let them procrastinate." If anyone dares to delay his good deeds, just wash his neck and wait!

Zuo Shaoqing felt very novel about this kind of couple discussing the wedding together. Since ancient times, marriage has followed the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. He didn't know what the mood of the woman was when she was about to marry. People are light-hearted.

After finally arriving at the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, Lu Zheng jumped off the horse first, and Zuo Shaoqing jumped off without waiting for him to move, and then followed him to the Nuanxiang Pavilion of the old lady.

After inviting Ann, Lu Zheng and the old lady talked about the marriage, including the wedding date and the affairs undertaken by the Ministry of Rites.

Zuo Shaoqing knew that he should resign at such a time, but he didn't know what was wrong, so he was a spectator all night, and even the old lady's frequent glances were ignored by him.

"Since the wedding date has been fixed, it is not suitable for Shaoqing to live in the mansion anymore."

"Why?" Lu Zheng was the first to disagree, and Zuo Shaoqing also looked at the old lady suspiciously. Could it be that the old lady is not happy that she lives here?

"Two silly boys!" The old lady scolded with a smile, knowing that the two of them are inexperienced stunned youths, so she explained: "Although you two men are married differently from women, you still have to abide by the etiquette that should be accepted. Don't you know that husband and wife are not allowed to meet before they get married?"

Zuo Shaoqing rubbed his nose, he was sure he didn't know, he just felt that he and Lu Zheng had destroyed the harmony of yin and yang anyway, so why obey those things?

Lu Zheng obviously had the same idea as him: "You are talking about a woman, Shaoqing is a man, it doesn't matter!"

The old lady raised the fan in her hand and knocked on Lu Zheng's head, "Then what do you mean, there is no need to greet the bride on the day of marriage? Just pay homage?"

Embarrassed, Lu Zheng replied calmly: "Of course I want it, then I will send Shaoqing back tomorrow."

Zuo Shaoqing has been living in the Zhen Guogong Mansion since he was injured, firstly to recuperate from his injuries, and secondly because he really didn't want to go back to that cold home.

Hearing that he wanted to go back, Zuo Shaoqing was very reluctant in every possible way, but after a second thought, he felt that it might not be necessary to go back to Zuofu, there was a better place to go.

The next day, the imperial decree of marriage and the list of palace examinations were posted at the same time. The people in the whole capital were stunned by the fact that Lord Lu wanted to marry a man. The common people are so crowded that there are few people in the meeting when there is no need to release the rankings in the palace examination.

"How do you say it? It is really written on the imperial list that Lord Zhen Guo was given a husband?" A middle-aged man who couldn't get in outside grabbed the young man who just got out.

The young man shook his head and sighed, "I didn't expect that...how could this happen? Hey..."

"Before it was rumored that Duke Zhen asked the emperor to give him a marriage in the palace examination. I still didn't believe it. How could anyone marry a man? What do you mean by this?"

This is something that everyone can't understand. If you like men, you can like them. Isn't it okay to keep them outside secretly?Why do you have to marry and go home?

What does it mean to marry a man?It means that even if the Duke of Zhen has a child in the future, he will not be able to become a son-in-law. It's no good even thinking about it.

"What's the point of this? Of course, it's because of the depth of love that he must be the only one. Duke Zhen is such an upright man that he doesn't bother to use women as shields!

Besides, the one he wants to marry is Zhuangyuan Lang. I heard that this Zuo Zhuangyuan is not only talented in literature, but also handsome in abundance and noble in character. "

"That's right, how bad is the person who can be favored by Lord Zhen..."

Just after Zuo Shaoqing moved out of Zhen Guogong's mansion, Ke Youliang also returned from his second trip to sea. This time he brought not only two boats, but ten boats loaded with goods came ashore from the port of Crane City. Shipping to Kyoto.

Zuo Shaoyan flipped through the bound list page by page, the corners of his mouth raised higher and higher, and his eyes almost narrowed.

Ke Youliang became darker and thinner, his obscene eyes glistened, he was wearing a calico dress brought back from overseas, and he had a mustache, which was a bit nondescript.

"Boss, these are still secondary. You can directly turn to the last page, and there will be unexpected surprises." Ke Youliang reminded with his chest puffed out.

Zuo Shaoqing was a little curious, so he really turned to the last page. After reading the long series of superimposed numbers, he stared and asked, "Gold... 7000 taels?"

Ke Youliang smiled and rubbed his nose, "On the way back to the city, there was a storm, and I happened to be forced to stop on an island. That island does not belong to any country. There are only a few hundred indigenous people on the island. They don't know The value of gold, casually thrown aside."

"That island is rich in gold mines?" Zuo Shaoqing once heard that some maritime merchants quickly became rich because they found overseas gold mines. At first, no one discovered it. After another year or a half, the imperial court should issue an approval letter to restrict them. Maritime import and export of goods.

"Yes, because the slave exchanged food with them for gold. The local people were very enthusiastic and even took the slave to see the place where the gold was produced. After that, the slave exchanged a large amount of gold with cloth and grain."

When Ke Youliang thought of this, he felt that he had bullied the local aborigines. 7000 taels of gold was enough for the residents of the island to live in comfort and luxury for a lifetime, but he exchanged it with two boats.

"Okay!" Zuo Shaoqing didn't feel guilty. Gold was of no value to the residents of an isolated island. It was much better to exchange for food and clothing than to throw it aside.

"Can you still find the island?"

"It's natural." The master and servant smiled at each other, knowing that the other party still had the idea of ​​the gold mine.

"Are the people you brought with you reliable? If the news leaks out, I'm afraid not only will you lose the gold, but it will also harm the residents of that island."

"My boss, don't worry, the gold trade is done by the slave with a few henchmen. Others only know that the slave traded the goods for a large number of fruits and seeds on the island, but they don't know that it is for gold."

"Well, let's rest for a few days. This time, the Lord will arrange manpower for you. If you make another transaction, you will stop." Zuo Shaoqing is going to do this transaction with the Zhen Guogong, and he wants to make a fortune before the court reacts. .

With the escort of the Zhen Guo government, no one in the shipping department would dare to inspect the things that came ashore.

When Zuo Yunyang came, Zuo Shaoqing had already torn off the last page of the account book, so Zuo Yunyang looked at the boxes of gems, furs and medicinal materials on the list, even if he had been in business for decades, he couldn't bear it. Stay tuned.

He said with emotion: "Sea merchants are indeed huge profits. As long as you don't get in danger at sea, you can earn more by going back and forth than usual in a year."

"This is natural, but the danger is indeed much greater, and this is just the beginning, and there are still few merchants going to sea. When maritime commerce gradually develops, these things will not be so rare."

Zuo Yunyang nodded. Rare things are the most precious. Nowadays, a random stone from overseas is a rare thing, "Shaoqing, these things are not in a hurry to sell. The wedding is just around the corner, so I just picked out some things to add makeup." .”

He was worried about what kind of dowry to buy, and it just so happened that these goods arrived. This download, I am afraid that the people in the whole capital will be eye-opening.

Zuo Shaoqing gave a dry cough, and the roots of her ears turned red, but she still calmly discussed with Zuo Yunyang what to choose instead.

The two spent three days picking and choosing like this, and it took another two days for Ke Guanshi to take the selected things out of the warehouse and pack them into boxes. After the final dowry list came out, Zuo Shaoqing endured I couldn't help raising my eyebrows and smiling.

Zuo Yunyang looked at the thick list and couldn't help shaking his hands. That's why Zuo Shaoqing, who is like a lonely family, can marry all the family's belongings and replace them with other people. To the son-in-law.

"Hurry up and send it to Zhen Guogong's mansion. The plan of the new house was sent over there three days ago. The second uncle of the furniture has also been typed up, and it just happens to be sent over there."

Originally, the furniture was also included in the woman's dowry, but as usual, Zuo Shaoqing's dowry can only be 120 four liters, and the furniture can't be made up anyway, so he just moved into the new house first.
