Chapter 44: Do You Know Zheng Chenggong?
gave Aunt Liu a verbal guarantee, and Li Xiaojun asked about Zheng Sen's situation again. Although this man is very generous, he is full of arrogance, and it is obvious that he will not be easily manipulated by others, and if she wants to get money from him, she must find out his details.
Hearing her question, Liu Ru said disdainfully, "What kind of crooked son Zheng Gongzi is just a little pirate, a little mongrel." ”
Seeing that Li Xiaojun didn't know why, she said again, "This Zheng Sen is the son of Zheng Zhilong, the general soldier of Fujian, Zheng Zhilong was a pirate in his early years, causing chaos in Japan, Korea and the East China Sea, marrying a Japanese woman and giving birth to him. Later, after being recruited by the imperial court, he changed from a thief to an official. He has been a pirate for so many years, accumulated a lot of wealth, and opened the way with gold and silver, so the official naturally became bigger and bigger, and he was promoted from guerrilla to general soldier in only ten years. ”
Li Xiaojun nodded again and again when she heard this, she suddenly remembered Zheng Chenggong, the famous anti-Qing hero during the Ming and Qing dynasties, and asked, "Is this Zheng Zhilong Zheng Chenggong?" ”
"Zheng Chenggong?" Liu Ru glared, shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be, Zheng Zhilong has a lot of font sizes, and I haven't heard of the word 'success'!" ”
Li Xiaojun asked again, "Then does he have a son named Zheng Chenggong?" ”
Liu Ru thought for a while and said, "This Zheng Yiguan has a total of seven sons, and I haven't heard of anyone named Zheng Chenggong." My lord has been dating him for several years, and he knows their Zheng family quite well, and I have never heard of a person named Zheng Chenggong in their family. ”
Li Xiaojun thought that Zheng Sen was Zheng Chenggong's son, and couldn't help but be deflated when she heard this, if she could meet Zheng Chenggong's son, she could take him down and go to Taiwan together when the time came, so that she could at least die well.
Since he is not Zheng Chenggong, and he is not Zheng Chenggong's son, then he doesn't have to show mercy to his subordinates.
Seeing her bow her head and think, Liu Ru couldn't help but ask, "I don't know where this Zheng Chenggong came from, where did you know this person?" ”
Li Xiaojun said perfunctorily, "It's nothing, just ask." ”
Liu Ru saw that she didn't want to say more, and she didn't want to ask more, so she got involved in the relationship between the Qian and Zheng families, "This Zheng Zhilong has no other skills, so he knows that he blindly drills the camp, in order to let his son have a right path in the future, I don't know how much relationship he has entrusted, so he has to worship the master. ”
Li Xiaojun carefully recalled Zheng Sen's performance these two times, and felt that in addition to being a little domineering, the others were not bad, the biggest feature was that he talked about the rules, although he was suspected of bullying, but he was still moral, not as unbearable as she said!
The two gossiped for a while, reminisced about the history of revolutionaries, and finally turned the topic to these two children, "Huh...... This Sun Ai has never been in peace since he got involved with that little pirate! ”
Li Xiaojun knows too much about this kind of adolescent Xiao Zhengtai, and said with a smile, "Since the tuba has been abolished, let's hurry up and apply for a trumpet." ”
Liu Ru said that he didn't understand, and Li Xiaojun had to change his words, "I mean that since you think he has been abolished, then hurry up and give birth to one yourself, it's not good to be a stepmother!" ”
As soon as it came to giving birth to a son, Liu Ruyi's face fell, Qian Qianyi was sixty-three years old, but there was only one son under his knees, she had been married to him for more than two years, and she still had nothing, and she was about to go crazy for this.
"Ahem, this life may be like this!" Even a talented woman who doesn't eat fireworks in the world will be troubled by stomach problems, thinking that it is impossible for her to keep the Qian family for the rest of her life, Liu Ruye's eyes became dim, and even began to regret that she had squandered her youth uncontrollably before, "If I had met my master ten years earlier, I would have been able to give birth to a boy and a half girl for him." ”
"Ten years ago you were seventeen." After Li Xiaojun finished speaking, she felt that this joke was not funny at all, because it is too normal for a woman in this era to have a child at the age of seventeen or eighteen, but it is a rare thing to have a child at the age of twenty-seven, as far as she knows, Emperor Kangxi does not turn over the brand of concubines over twenty-five years old.
Liu Ru thought about it, "Yes, even if you beat me to death when you are seventeen or eighteen years old, I will not marry him." ”
After she came out of the mansion of the university scholar Zhou Daodeng at the age of fourteen, she made friends with young talents, and later wanted to marry Chen Zilong, but he was a tracheitis, which made her a big ugly. After repeated emotional setbacks, she gave up her unrealistic illusions, and just when she thought that she might never have the chance to marry into a wealthy family again in this life, Qian Qianyi appeared in her life, and proposed to marry her as a wife, and she really felt the responsibility that a man should have.
Seeing that her eyes were lonely, for the sake of her coming to see her, Li Xiaojun decided to help him, "You are still very young, and it is not difficult to get pregnant, as long as you master the basic rules of pregnancy and calculate the time, I will ensure that you will conceive in minutes." ”
"Do you have a solution?" Seeing that she didn't look like she was joking, Liu Ru asked in surprise, and then smiled again, "What can you do?" If you have a way, you won't have no heirs for five years with Hou Chaozong. ”
"Can he blame me for not being able to do it himself?" Li Xiaojun was about to argue, but Cuiyun, who came to deliver the tea, preemptively explained, "Aunt Liu, our young lady is different from before, she knows a lot now." ”
"Ah, is it?" Liu Ruye's face was full of doubt, "What's the difference?" ”
Cuiyun was about to say when Zhou Bin broke in again, "Miss, Mr. Chen is here." ”
Li Xiaojun was blindsided again, "Mr. Chen? Which Mr. Chen? ”
Liu Ru burst out laughing, "It must be Yixing Chen Zhenhui Chen Dingsheng, it is Zhenniang's friend, and it is also Hou Chaozong's friend of life and death, you won't even forget him, right?" ”
Ah, it turned out to be a cheap stepfather and a cheap big brother, so you can't slack off. Remembering Zhen Niang's explanation before leaving, she had to smile awkwardly, "Aunt Liu, wait a minute, Zhen Niang has a few words to tell him before leaving, I will go and talk to him now, and I will talk about having a child when I come back." ”
"Forget it, there will be time later!" Liu Ru waved his hand, got up and took out a silver ticket from his purse and handed it to her, "What are you polite to me!" Since Chen Dingsheng is here, there must be something important to discuss, so I will leave first and come to see you in two days. You can take these yellow and white things first, and if you don't have enough, you can send someone to take them. ”
Now that she's on the shore, she's a big lady in the house, and she doesn't want to see people as casually as before.
Li Xiaojun knew that she held her own identity, and she didn't force her to stay, so she generously accepted the silver ticket, and the two went out of the inner house together, and after a few more words, she left through the side door.
