Chapter 160: Brown Sugar and Jujubes

Margaret certainly didn't tell Brin all the truth. Since you have decided to follow the Admiral, you need to understand his thoughts. She didn't know that Xu Zhonglin was a time-traveling party, and she knew about the East about the same level as her at this time. As a person who doesn't know the culture of the Eastern Empire, she is not very good at telling other ship wives about her ideas, so she just secretly asks a bookseller to bring her some books that can understand the Eastern culture.

But the scope was too general, and the writings of the Eastern Empire were so vast that the bookseller asked her what kind of books she wanted about.

Margaret told the other party in a rambling way about how to get closer to the Admiral without destroying the unity between the ship's mothers.

This kind of worry is understandable, since ancient times, women are afraid of marrying the wrong man, and every shipwreck will have this kind of worry.

The bookseller in a small place like Howmet Suk was no different from a vegetable seller, and the Italian merchant had no understanding of Oriental culture at all, but he was reluctant to pay that handy commission. So he ran back to Rome overnight to consult a merchant from the Eastern Empire.

Of course, he didn't dare to tell the truth about this kind of intimate matter, so he had to tell the other party vaguely: about how to be the most popular with the male host in a bunch of women.

The merchant from the East slapped his thigh: That's it! The backyard of the mansion is competing for favor, right? Brother, you're asking the right person!

The Italian businessman rejoiced - it went so well!

Oriental businessmen spittle: Look at this book, describing the story of the people in the red apricot building of the Qinhuai Famous Pavilion. This red apricot building is still famous, and it is known as eighteen Yan when it is prosperous. This heroine, Fleur, is one of the Oiran. Later, he fell in love with Ying Tianfu. was married home as the ninth aunt, and ...... at night You know, the next day, Fleur took the mansion back to the Red Apricot Building, and the old bustard and the other seventeen Yan tried their best to greet him, and three of them were with the mansion at the same time...... You know. This Fu Cheng is also a long-term lover, and they all married back home, and guess what?

The Italian businessman knows a fart, he heard it in a fog, he only felt that the other party's fat face expression was particularly distorted, and even the laughter was very strange, can he guess an egg?

The Oriental businessman doesn't mind, he still has more professional ethics, although the introduction to the other party is a Fengyue book, but the Fengyue book also has content: not long after, the genuine lady of the mansion fell ill and disappeared all of a sudden! This Fleur is really a hero in the fat powder pile, and she whirls between the other ten aunts and a group of maids and handsome scholars, but she finally pleases the mansion and is promoted to be the head lady. In the end, the official of the palace lived in the household department, and this Oiran Hibiscus was also ordered by the imperial court. can be described as a heroine among women, amazing! Exactly what you need.

If the little fat man Zheng Maitreya is here, he will definitely smack this oriental businessman in the face, and then kick his feet twice: paralysis! The prostitution in a third-rate hall is praised by you so much that the bottom is about to bloom, what a capability!

Where have you seen the businessman? I was shocked by the other party's ability to talk like a river and have a bright tongue, and I only knew that it met the requirements of the guests, so I unconsciously bought dozens of copies. The Oriental merchant smiled happily: Grandma's, the inventory has finally been cleared, originally he thought that the Oriental Fengyue Book should be very popular here, but unfortunately the cultural differences are too great, Westerners prefer to see countesses and knights, grooms and even horses, and they can't get the cool points in the book at all, and it has been backlogged for a long time.

When Margaret got the book, she didn't think that the other party dared to lie to herself, and she was embarrassed to communicate with the other sisters, she really thought that everyone in the Eastern Empire was like this, so she naturally regarded it as a golden rule.

Brin was naturally the most familiar with his sister, and when he saw her serious expression, he knew that it should be true, and stammered: "That...... I...... Why haven't you heard Teresa say it? ”

"Sissi has only one sister named Franz, this ship's wife is now serving in the Austro-Hungarian Navy, they can't go back in the first place, and now that this has happened, there is no need to count on it. I'm different, I'm a retired general on a temporary call-up, and I can go back to Livorno at any time after the war is over. Didn't you see that even Rena called her sister over? ”

These are all made up by Margaret when she was bored, so reasonable and logical, Brin is powerless to refute: "But then you don't have to ask me to accompany him...... Well, it's not said in the story, only three of the sisters agree. ”

Margaret said with a look of disdain: "What do you think a human male is?" Is there less than three all of a sudden? Seventeen together, the treasurer is still alive! ”

A flash of inspiration flashed in Brin's mind: "That's not right! How can a mother have eighteen daughters?! I have also read books in the East, and His Majesty the Emperor who has the most children has only a dozen princesses, which is almost impossible! You lied to me. ”

This time, it was Margaret's turn:! No, the book says that the mother has dozens of daughters, and the best ones are eighteen, and think about the age of these daughters...... It seems like they're all about the same. How many babies does a human have at most?

It's a simple math problem, and Margaret thinks it's impossible just a little bit of thought! Got scammed! Which harem writer opened this pit? Come to think of it, extreme black and white! (Didn't write it, made a cameo with a shy face) Damn bastard, can you get away with a pen name? Yu remembers you, don't let me find it, swear in my name, the old lady promises not to kill you!

Margaret didn't think about it, but the scene described in the book was too different from that of the European Academy, which European Academy had rows of maids? There is also a flowing banquet, and you can also answer poetry with the nobles. She pondered that it should be a wealthy businessman like the Admiral's family that had such pomp and circumstance.

But the matter has not been resolved, Margaret lost a big face in front of her sister, if she sat down, it is estimated that she will be ridiculed for a lifetime, she tried her best to pretend to be calm, and said lightly: "Don't you know that the Oriental people don't believe in God, and they can marry dozens of wives?" And these children can only recognize one mother, the Admiral has a third sister, and I brought her a gift, and their sisters are like that. The emperor is so busy, and the heirs are very difficult, but ordinary people are different, the admiral's father has married two new wives in the past six months, and now there are a total of six wives. There are so many human beings, there are always a few gifted ones, and it is said that the ...... "flickered and almost used too much force."

This wave of bandit jumping police spoke fluently and logically, sounding so reasonable, speechless. Brin was apparently deceived: "I ...... I was not feeling well, so go back and take a break. ”

……

When Xu Zhonglin was eating breakfast, he heard Sissi report that Teacher Brin was unwell and canceled the invitation, and he was still very confused, what was the situation? Which of the ship's mothers is not a superman who doesn't have a sore back, doesn't have sore legs, and doesn't pant when he goes to the 150th floor in one breath, where will he still be sick?

However, when the other party said this, he couldn't help but express it, so he instructed Sissi: "Didn't the gopher bring back a lot of local products?" You go and pick up some brown sugar and jujubes and send them to Mr. Brin to offer condolences. ”

Sissi agreed, but was stopped by Teresa: "Wait! There must be a reason for the cancellation, and you even have to retaliate for this little thing? It's so ungentlemanly. It's not a gentleman's job to joke about a lady, let alone Margaret's sister, is it appropriate? ”

"Ahem...... Where is it, do I just care about her health? ”

"Phew! Do I understand Chinese medicine? Which ship's mother have you ever seen come to Geranium? ”

! It's not easy to fool the sister paper who learns through China and the West!

Annoyed and angry, someone immediately changed the subject: "I've finished eating, while there is still time, call the gopher in." ”
