Chapter 725: Marriage
"Sir...... Is he okay? In the slightly swaying cabin, Li Chengdao was silent for a long time before finally asking. www.biquge.info Zhang Shiyi suddenly came to Quanzhou, and after finding him, he immediately pulled him onto the boat, no matter how he asked the other party, he didn't say anything, and it wasn't until after the ship left the port just now that Zhang Shiyi told him the reason.
"It's good, this time he also took the whole family out to play, and he lived a very leisurely life......
"The whole family?" Before Zhang Shiyi finished speaking, Li Chengdao suddenly widened his eyes and said excitedly, "Qi Niang...... Did Qi Niang and Aunt also come together? ”
"Yes, they are all here, but they don't know the news of your return, after all, your identity is too sensitive, if it spreads, not only will you be in danger, but even Li Xiu and his family may be implicated, so the news of your return is only known to me and him, originally I didn't want him to see you, so as not to cause trouble, but he had to take the risk to meet you!" Zhang Shiyi said truthfully at this time.
Hearing that Qi Niang and they were really here, Li Chengdao's face was also happy, but then he heard Zhang Shiyi's words, the look on his face also became a little gloomy, in fact, he also knew that he shouldn't come back, but he had been in the Americas for a long time, and his thoughts about Datang were also increasing day by day, so he personally led the fleet back this time, originally he just wanted to stay quietly for a while, and then go back to the Americas with the fleet, so that no one would find out, but he didn't expect to meet Li Xiu's family and come to the south.
"Okay, don't blame yourself, I've already arranged it, no one should find out about your return, after seeing Li Xiu this time, you should go back as soon as possible, don't come back again!" Zhang Shiyi saw Li Chengdao's face, and immediately sighed and said, when Li Chengdao's family went to the Americas, he personally sent it to him, and Li Chengdao is still the righteous son of the bearded guest, and they can barely be regarded as brothers, so they have a lot less scruples when they speak.
"Thank you, brother!" Li Chengdao couldn't help but stand up and salute Zhang Shiyi when he heard this, since the death of his father Li Jiancheng, in addition to Li Xiu's family who helped him the most, he counted the bearded guests and their father and son took the most care of him, especially after arriving in the Americas, although the bearded guests and his uncle Li Yuanji clashed from time to time, but in fact they still took great care of them, not to mention anything else, just this route from Datang to the Americas was given to him in vain, which made him very grateful.
"Don't be polite to me, last time my father sent someone back, and also brought me a letter written by him, the letter praised you for being good, and then scolded me and several other brothers, I can feel that he values you more as a son than my own son!" At this time, Zhang Shiyi smiled again, he didn't mean to be jealous of Li Chengdao, he just laughed at himself about this matter, anyway, he was scolded by bearded customers since he was a child, and he was used to it for a long time.
"This ......" Li Chengdao couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he heard Zhang Shiyi's words, in fact, when he was in the Americas, he had already discovered that Zhang Shiyi's brothers were not very close to him, but it was not surprising to think about it, the bearded guest compared himself with Zhang Shiyi's brothers every day, and they naturally didn't have a good face for Li Chengdao, fortunately, Li Chengdao would be a man, take the initiative to socialize with Zhang Shiyi's brothers, and usually give some gifts, so he could barely maintain the relationship.
"By the way, I heard that the seventeenth sister and your brother are engaged, when are you going to get married?" At this moment, Zhang Shiyi suddenly remembered one more thing, and asked again. The bearded guest has many children, and he doesn't even bother to choose a name, for example, Zhang Shiyi's name is because he ranks eleventh among his brothers, and there are many younger brothers below him, and in addition to his son, the bearded guest also has more than 20 daughters, just in terms of giving birth to children, the bearded guest is stronger than Li Yuan.
"Yes, they were engaged last winter, Chengde and Ling Mei are also childhood sweethearts, they have had a good relationship since childhood, and they have grown up in the past two years, so their father-in-law is engaged to them, and they are ready to get married this winter!" Li Chengdao talked about his younger brother's marriage, and he was also very happy at the moment.
The five Li Chengdao brothers, plus Li Yuanji's five sons, are now getting older, and it is time to consider the matter of marriage, although they are all down-and-out now, but after all, they are from the royal family, and the native women in the Americas can only be concubines at most, not wives, and even ordinary Han women They can't even look down on them, fortunately, there are many daughters and granddaughters of the bearded guest, so he has always encouraged his brothers to go to the bearded guest's house more, and now there is finally a result, and he also hopes to use the marriage, Form a close alliance with the Zhang family, after all, there are only two Han forces in the Americas, so they naturally have to support each other.
"That's good, the last time I saw Sister Seventeen, she was still a little girl who could only cry, I didn't expect to get married now, but I'm afraid I won't be able to go back to her wedding, and when you leave, help me bring her a dowry, which can be regarded as my brother's dedication!" Zhang Shiyi also said with some emotion when he heard this, he has many brothers and sisters, and his feelings for each other are also a little indifferent, but he has a good relationship with Seventeenth Sister, and he used to take care of her.
"No problem, the dowry given by my righteous brother will be sent to our Li family in the end, and I, who is a brother, will accept it on behalf of Chengde!" Li Chengdao also laughed at this time and said, after going to the Americas, it is rare for the family to have such a big happy event, so the family also attaches great importance to it, and even this time he came back to Datang, in addition to buying ships and some necessary items, he is also going to buy some things for marriage, so that his younger brother can get married in a beautiful way.
"Don't think I don't know if I'm not in America, but your brothers are all staring at my unmarried sisters!" Zhang Shiyi glanced at Li Chengdao at this time, but he also agreed with the marriage between the two families, not to mention the interests, the only men who can be worthy of his sister in the Americas are Li Chengdao and these brothers.
Hearing Zhang Shiyi's words, Li Chengdao couldn't help but smile and didn't defend anything, but at this moment, I saw Zhang Shiyi suddenly look him up and down a few times, and then smiled again: "I heard that the fifteenth sister has a good impression of you, and now the seventeenth sister and your younger brother are going to get married, when are you and the fifteenth sister going to do it, is it possible that you, as an elder brother, will fall behind your younger brother?" ”
Hearing Zhang Shiyi mention his marriage, Li Chengdao's face couldn't help but change, and then he looked up at the far north, and his eyes became very complicated.
