Chapter 265: Don't Wedding Too Much

Lu Ruohan's shout made Zhao Lie come back to his senses, and he couldn't help laughing, whether it was his own reason or not, he had to look forward, but now he definitely couldn't look left and right, he could only move forward. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Lu Ruohan and Zhao Lie chatted while walking, not hindering the question of whether they could preach in Zhao Lie's territory.

Lu Ruohan is a stubborn man, and he has always made it his mission to spread the gospel of the Lord, both in Japan and in China.

It's just that the distant eastern peoples have their own culture and beliefs, stubbornly resisting the spread of Catholicism, and the monarchs are also extremely vigilant about the missionary work of Catholicism in their territories, for fear of shaking their foundations, so the Japanese shogunate expelled the Spanish and Portuguese missionaries, and Lu Ruohan came to Daming so helplessly, hoping to open up a new world in Daming.

"This is the government affairs of the Ming Dynasty, a certain is a military general, I am afraid that there is nothing to be done, if you want to start teaching, you must get the permission of the governor of Denglai." Zhao Lie is pushing clean.

Just kidding, in Europe, Catholicism uses the Catholics to influence the political situation, manipulate the political situation, and even affect the abolition of the British and French monarchs, even in a strong country like Britain and France, not to mention other small country kings, how heavy the authority is, he will never let this scene repeat itself here, I believe that the old master of the imperial court will not give in, otherwise Lu Ruohan will not be in Dengzhou but should be in Beijing.

"Alas, Master Sun has also just taken office, and besides, the Ming Cabinet has not agreed to our request to preach, and Elder Xu Ge is also powerless."

Lu Ruohan did not expect that the difficulties he encountered in Daming were greater than those in Japan, where the area of their mission was not small, from Kyushu to Honshu, there were their followers, and even more than a dozen daimyo all believed in Catholicism. Among them is the famous one-eyed dragon of the Date family.

"There's no way around that. You can only wait until the cabinet agrees to proselytize. This is government affairs, you must know that the Ming court and the Son of Heaven are the most taboo for military generals to participate in political affairs. Zhao Lie shrugged and said that he was helpless. Unless you can live for a few hundred years, you will understand the conservatism and stubbornness of this old empire.

Lu Ruohan shook his head in disappointment, their mission in the south was also carried out secretly, and the people in the government also turned a blind eye after dredging, but once the Ming court ordered a ban, then it would be destroyed.

They marched forward more than a hundred paces, and finally met the brigade of the Portuguese, and Silao and the others suddenly stood in the ranks. They were also extremely happy to see Zhao Lie, this is the son-in-law of the Portuguese, it can be regarded as half a Portuguese, Zhao Lie invited them to drink tea and wine, so that they could have a good time.

In Beihua Qikeshu Village, the village chief Fang Shun's family is holding a feast, and Fang Shun's second son Fang Gaoshan is married today.

"Second Aunt Bao, you are old, please come in, child. Come on, accompany Aunt Bao in. Of course, Fang Shun received the neighbors at the doorstep. Old Yu Tou was on the side to help. Fang Shun greeted him, and he accompanied him into the courtyard.

"Lao Ding, you're here too. Come in. Fang Shun saw Lao Ding, a carpenter in the village, and greeted him politely, the doors and windows and furniture of the new house at home were all made by Lao Ding.

"Village chief, you're welcome, I'll just go in by myself." The black and thin old man said with a smile.

"I said, Lao Ding, why didn't my younger siblings and children come, didn't I say it, the whole village is happy together today for a happy event." Fang Shun asked.

"Alas, village chief, there's no way, the neighbors in Tieshan in the Saddle Village in front of me also got married, and they were all brothers from earlier, so they had to go, no, the one in my family went there, and I was left to come here by myself, no one, no one." Lao Ding lowered his face bitterly.

I don't know how there are so many weddings in Beihua now, in the past six months, he has participated in more than ten weddings, but the congratulatory gift is about to empty his family, fortunately, the eldest son of his family is a matter of the past two years, and sooner or later he can take it back, otherwise it will make him die of heartache.

"Accept it, I accept your affection." Fang Shun also knew that he had to accept this love, after all, he pushed the neighbor's marriage. Beihua is indeed getting married now, and many people are also worried about whether to go to this or that family today.

The reason why there are so many marriages is because every family has slowed down this year, saved some money and food, built new houses, and the weddings of children who were dragged down by poverty in the past have also been put on the agenda.

However, after these Beihua are all refugees from Liaodong, there are few women in the family, and there are no more than ten teenage girls in the village who are suitable for marriage, and they have long been booked by acquaintances, and even Fang Shun, the village head, did not have a single son in the family, Fang Yuanshan said that Beili became a mountain, because Fang Yuanshan's entry into the army was also temporarily put on hold.

So Fang Shun was ruthless, and borrowed 100 silver dollars from Beihua Quanye Bank, which must be repaid within five years, and brought a sixteen-year-old North Korean girl from the marriage agency to Fang Gaoshan to marry.

One is that the son got married one day earlier, and having a grandson one day earlier can also reassure the old couple, and the other also makes Fang Gaoshan, who doesn't know anything, settle down.

As for why he didn't look for a Han woman, it was because a better-looking Han woman in the marriage agency could ask for 120 silver dollars, and she would not bargain.

North Korean women who can speak Chinese only need 50 silver dollars, and those who don't know Chinese only need 30 silver dollars, Fang Shun's family has many children and a heavy burden, so he chose a Korean woman who can speak Chinese for his second son.

Fang Shun is not picky, and when he was in Tieshan, there were many neighbors who married North Korean women.

"Two worship the high hall."

"Husband and wife worship each other."

"Send it to the cave."

Because the woman Li Meihua has no family here, she was smuggled out of Busan, so there is no such thing as marrying relatives and sending relatives, the little couple was surrounded by everyone around the village for a circle, and after the wedding ceremony, they were sent to the newly built wing, and the whole village of Seven Trees began to set up a banquet inside and outside Fang Shun's courtyard to eat and drink.

The courtyard couldn't fit these hundreds of people at all, so Fang Shun used borrowed tables and chairs to set dozens of tables outside the courtyard, fortunately, it was summer, and the outside was even more refreshing.

Fang Shun and his wife smiled and toasted to the villagers, and the newlyweds also followed them to toast, and the neighbors' bastards took the opportunity to make a fuss, saying that the bride should show if she was beautiful or not, which made Fang Gaoshan embarrassed, and finally it was Fang Shun who put on the majesty of the village chief to make these bastards stop.

After Fang Shun finished toasting, he looked inside and outside to see if there was anything missing.

He looked at the scene of constant laughter inside and outside, not to mention this joy in his heart, he didn't expect to have a good life today in the early years, it would be good to fill his stomach at that time, as for the child's marriage, it was left to fate, and he really couldn't take one from the beggar.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly entered the house to put a stick of incense on the tablet of Lord Zhao, which is the tablet that almost every household in Beihua worships for Lord Zhao Lie, and bows to the incense every day, one is to thank the Lord for leading everyone to live a good life, and then it is also to bless the Lord Zhao for his safety, and there will be no good life here without Lord Zhao.

There are also many people who get married on the big island of Jeju, and there is also such a family in the house of the craftsman household, and the old money head held a wedding for his second son and his righteous son Zhang Wei, and after several years of accumulation, the Qian family has also accumulated a lot of money.

However, because it cost some silver dollars to buy a house in the artisan household housing area and buy a house for his son Zhang Wei, seeing that the children are getting older day by day and can't afford to drag it out, Daddy Qian decided to get two North Korean women from the marriage agency to marry Qian Er and Zhang Wei, as for Qian San, he is three years younger than them, so he can wait a little longer.

When they got married, Lord Yuan Yi, the head of the craftsman camp, also came, and sent Chengyi five silver dollars on behalf of the craftsman camp, and the money daddy was happy enough, so he couldn't help but say that he had to leave Lord Yuan to eat. Qian San's workers also came to cheer.

Qian Er and Zhang Wei's comrades-in-arms also took leave to celebrate, and the Tang-class battleships in the Galen fleet were entering the factory for maintenance one by one, so the Qian family held a wedding, and these soldiers and sailors could come, which also made the Qian family's wedding very lively.

There are a lot of old men, drinking and eating meat, which is particularly bold, but the noise is also loud, which makes the Qian family noisy inside and outside.

Of course, there are also holes in the room, what makes the bride toast, the groom drinks too much and don't enter the wrong room, and there are a lot of nonsense words, but Qian Er and Zhang Wei's smiles remain the same, they are all comrades-in-arms and workers, in order to have fun, at most it is just envy and jealousy, and it is just after laughing.

The next morning, the two brides got up to cook for the family.

Father Qian, Qian Er, Qian San, Zhang Wei, and Qian Xiaoya were waiting in the hall.

"Boys, a woman finally cooks for us." Daddy Qian touched his sparse beard with his hand, and sighed with satisfaction, the last time a woman cooked was when the eldest son's family was alive, thinking of this, Dad was a little sentimental.

"Dad, don't think too much, isn't it a good day now." Qian Er hurriedly comforted Daddy Qian.

"Also, I'm old and confused, this is your good life, I don't want those useless." Daddy Qian wiped his face and smiled a little.

"Grandpa, I'll go see if the food is good." Qian Xiaoya jumped to the kitchen, now Qian Xiaoya is not the withered appearance of the past, she eats well, sleeps warmly, her face is fleshy, her hair is black and shiny, and she is very lovely.

"Little girl, you know how to eat." Daddy Qian scolded with a smile.

"Dad, when will our family marry the third brother." Zhang Wei was very uneasy before Qian Sancheng, and he always remembered this.

"I said Dawei, our family wants to say that you can get your third brother married with a debt like other families, but I can't get over this hurdle in my heart, I didn't owe debts when I was in trouble earlier, and I can't do it today." Daddy Qian is very stubborn in this matter, and no one will listen to him.

"Besides, the third child is younger, you can wait, Dawei, since you are a family, don't always take this matter to heart, we Liaodong people have to help each other move forward."

Zhang Wei nodded with tears in his eyes.

"Yes, Brother Zhang, our family only needs to have enough money to marry in a year, I'm not in a hurry, I still want to pick and choose." Qian San said with a smile. One is to comfort Zhang Wei, and the other is the daughter of a co-worker, he takes a fancy to it, so he doesn't think about how to say it.

The meal is ready, the meal is ready, and it's time to eat. The little girl's immature voice came from far and near. (To be continued.) )
