The wedding of six Portuguese including Ricci Ricci was officially held, but not only a few of them got married, but also more than 20 generals under Li Guo also got married together.

Therefore, there are actually more than 30 people who are married.

Although there are strict regulations on the marriage of generals under Li Guo, there is one rule that can completely offset it, and that is military exploits. These married people followed Li Guo earlier, were extremely loyal to Li Guo, and were Li Guo's right-hand man.

Therefore, not only for the sake of Matrico Ricci, but also for the sake of his own generals, Li Guo will also make the marriage more solemn.

Early in the morning of the wedding day, the entire Nanning Mansion was cleaned by the soldiers, and the big red happy words were pasted all over the city, and the entire Nanning Mansion City was in a festive atmosphere.

Guangxi's pacification envoy Tu Shaoxuan and his wife were also invited, and Li Guo and Huang Xiu were honored as elders, and they were about to be worshiped by the newlyweds and blessed the newlyweds.

Dozens of tables were set up for the wedding banquet of the newlyweds, and most of the senior generals who could attend under Li Guo came to attend, except for those who had to stay in the ranks. Moreover, on the day of the wedding, the food in all of Li Guo's team was improved ☆ ~ Xiao ~ said ☆ anshuba ~ a little, and stewed meat and Sixi meatballs were added.

All the middle- and lower-class leaders who failed to attend the wedding trumpeted the benefits of following Li Guo to fight the world. Almost all of these middle- and lower-class leaders are bachelors, and while they are propagandizing, they are secretly competing, preparing to make good contributions in the future, so that they can also marry a daughter-in-law.

The bride had to stay at her mother's house on the first day, but many of these brides were female soldiers who grew up in the original loyal battalion, so they lived in Li Guo's inner house on the first day, comparing Li Guo and Huang Xiu to their fathers and mothers.

On the day of the wedding. More than 30 grooms rode tall horses, dressed in red flowers, and went to marry with their own sedan chairs. Sevenci and the other six Portuguese were originally trolls. I don't know how to ride a horse, and I heard that the groom in China is going to ride a horse when he gets married, so he practiced it on a special basis.

More than 30 brides sat in their respective sedan chairs under the guidance of specially selected brides. They have red hijabs on their heads, so they have signs on their bodies in case they get it wrong.

So, the drums shook the sky. A long procession of marriages drove to the yamen of Guangxi, where it was arranged as a wedding hall.

When I arrived in Guangxi, the firecrackers rang out like thunder. More than twenty small cannons were filled with only gunpowder. The cannon is not loaded with bullets. The sound shook the entire Nanning Prefecture, so much so that many residents of Nanning Prefecture later said that the wedding cannon and candles were more lively than the New Year.

The red felt was spread from outside the door to the palace, and a pair of newlyweds were led by red silk. Under the guidance of the bride. Walked in step by step. After passing the brazier and straddle the saddle, he entered the lobby and began to worship.

Tu Shaoxuan and Li Guo sat on the left, and Tu Shaoxu's wife and Huang Xiu sat on the right. I saw a pair of newlyweds first worship the heavens and the earth, and then began to worship Li Guo and Tu Shaoxuan to show the meaning of worshipping the high hall.

After the chapel, the bride went to their respective new houses under the guidance of the groom and the bride, and Li Guo specially built more than 30 rooms behind the palace of the envoy for this wedding. The bride stayed in the new house with her bride and did not come out again. The bridegroom is to go out of the new house to receive the guests.

Thereupon. The lively wedding feast began.

Ricci and several other Portuguese were not as good as other grooms, and they were familiar with Li Guo's generals. They came to the table of the Portuguese Governor in Macao, Lida, to toast.

Although Lida and the others have been in China for many years, the Ming Dynasty has very strict jurisdiction over them and is extremely precautionary, so they have never participated in the wedding in the East, and they have been stunned by this nondescript wedding at this moment. The festive atmosphere of the wedding made Lida and these people also happy and smiling.

Lida and the others looked at the festive Ricci Ricci, and while congratulating, they didn't feel envious. Coupled with the eight plates and eight bowls of dishes on the banquet table, Lida and others were even more happy. Lida and these people have a hard time, and when they come to Li Guo, they are equivalent to fasting, and they eat one by one with their mouths full of oil.

In private, Lida secretly pulled Matteo Ricci and said, "Matteo Ricci, this General Li doesn't seem to be ready to buy a boat, isn't it too expensive?" As you know, our warships are well maintained and perform well. In addition, he wants to hire us, but what kind of employment law is not explained. So you have to ask about this matter again. ”

Ricci shook his head, "No, I heard that three days of marriage for Orientals is a good day, and I will accompany my bride for these three days!" If you want to ask, it will be three days later. ”

"Okay, we can wait." Lida's mood is also a little lively now, and he admires such an extremely enlightened person as Li Guo. Therefore, Lida and others lived in Nanning Mansion.

On the third day, Matteo Ricci and more than 30 pairs of grooms and brides came to Li Guo's private house to salute Li Guo and Huang Xiu. Because most of the generals who participated in the wedding banquet had already returned to their respective camps, Liu Tichun, Zhao Youbin, and Nie Xin, who had already returned from Nanjing, were still left by Li Guo's side. The Governor of Australia, Lida, and others were also allowed to meet together.

So, more than 30 couples kowtowed to Li Guo, and Lida was surprised to find that Matteo Ricci and others also knelt down. You must know that Westerners kneel on one knee at most, and there has never been such a three-bow and nine-bow salute.

But Matteo Ricci and others sincerely bowed to Li Guo, and they were grateful to Li Guo for letting them have a home.

The brides of Matteo Ricci's six people are all in the dust, and being in the dust is actually a very sad thing. Therefore, these virtuous women cherish the life of a normal person, although they suddenly saw that these Portuguese blondes and blue eyes were not good-looking, but they were not too picky.

Ricci's bride is the Cuilan, Cuilan has a sturdy body, and she can't mix it up in the dust, but in Ricci's eyes, she is like a flower. So the two of them are very harmonious. Cuilan and several other dusty women thanked Li Guo for allowing them to become a family and live a normal life. Ricci Ricci and several Portuguese grooms also thanked Li Guo for his kindness to them.

Therefore, kowtowing to Li Guo is sincere.

Therefore, Lida didn't understand very much, and in private he pulled Ricci Ricci again, "Ricci, why did you kowtow to that General Li?" ”

Ricci was very unimpressed: "Of course I have to kowtow to him, now that I am his subordinate, I will be loyal to him, are we Portuguese half-hearted people?" ”

This is true, in fact, whether in the East or the West, honesty and trustworthiness have always been a good tradition.

"Did you ask about that?" Lida then asked.

"What's the matter?" Ricci was a little confused.

"Oops! Your memory is too bad, it's just about buying a ship and hiring sailors! Lida grumbled.

Matteo Ricci nodded, "That's the case, okay, I'll ask when I'm not busy." ”

"Don't forget!" As he instructed, Lida quickly walked to the wine table, because another table of dishes had already been put on the table. (To be continued......)
