Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 935 Two Cowards
When the royal envoy left, Dayuer, who had been dismissed, happened to return to Tianjinwei on the Yongchang.

Li Jinde and Sarina both fell ill with a high fever after being exposed to the rain that day.Chu Yun, dumbfounded, had no choice but to send Xiao Xiuer to be their doctor.Having a high fever in this day and age is still a dangerous thing.

"You two are really messing around, you don't need an umbrella." Xiao Xiu'er helplessly put wet towels on the two of them.

In order to facilitate seeing a doctor at the same time, Li Jinde added a temporary wooden bed to Selina's room to live in.

"Cough, cough——I was overwhelmed at the time." Li Jinde said in a hoarse voice.

"I was wrong," Selina said from the next bed.She heard Xiao Xiuer's reproach.

"The military leader asked when you two will get married, and if he should pay for it." Xiao Xiu'er asked.

"How can such a trivial matter bother the military leader! And the horoscope has not been written yet!" Li Jinde hurriedly said when he saw that Chu Yun wanted to give money to the members.

"Haven't you left a word? I've heard about you all. You don't want to keep someone else in Huaxia, and then you don't want her?" Although Xiao Xiu'er was not qualified to be present at the time, Li Jinde and Sa Lin The story of Na has been widely spread. As a girl, Xiao Xiuer still yearns for such a romantic and extremely rare story.

"No, I, Li Jinde, will not be such a person. It's just that I was in a hurry at the time, and my parents ordered me to speak with a matchmaker, so I had to be prepared with etiquette." Li Jinde said.

"You stopped her from her father and wanted to kill her parents. If you went to Britain, you might be kicked out by the earl with a stick. Not to mention that the matchmaker went to Britain and came back again." How much work was wasted." Xiao Xiu'er said.

"That's what you said..." After being tough, Li Jinde gave up again, reflexively wanting to delay for a while.

Selina heard the conversation between her benefactor Xiao Xiu'er and Li Jinde from the side. She had only learned Chinese for more than a month, and she was a little anxious.She was indeed retained by Li Jinde, and now she is a little worried.In case Li Jinde played tricks on her just on a whim, wouldn't she have nothing to rely on here.

"I have already prescribed the medicine, and it will be delivered later. You need to take the medicine on time every day, and you can't work hard. You must get better soon, so that you can help the military leader." Xiao Xiu'er checked the two of them again. illness, and then left.

Only the sick Li Jinde and Sarina were left in the room. Li Jinde didn't know how to face Selina now.

Do you want to wait for her to learn more Chinese vocabulary and be able to fully express herself before proposing marriage to her?Li Jinde thought.

Compared with Li Jinde's hesitation, Selina hoped that Li Jinde would formally settle the marriage soon, otherwise she would always be uneasy.

"Do you want to go to the Academy of Sciences? Although you and Princess Sophia have a private Chinese lecturer, you can improve your Chinese ability while going to the Academy of Sciences to get in touch with new things. I will ask the military leader to let you enter the Overseas Department ” Li Jinde knew that Selina was eager to learn, and she was worried about her inability to enter Cambridge University as a woman, so she wanted to let her enter the highest university in the East to fulfill her wish.

At this time, he didn't know that Chu Yun had signed a treaty with Britain, allowing Britons to have the qualifications to apply for overseas study, just like people from Dongying and Korea.

"Huh?" Selina struggled to listen, unable to understand the series of long sentences Li Jinde said.

"I almost forgot that you have only learned Chinese for a month, and you must still not understand it. Let's talk about it when you recover from your illness," Li Jinde said.

Need to get familiar with Chinese quickly... Selina was troubled by not being able to understand Li Jinde's complicated words.

Li Jinde's apprentices and hired sailors were worried about Li Jinde's affairs. They knew that their boss was weak in matters of relationship, so they couldn't help worrying about him.

"I'm afraid our shopkeeper will be hesitant, and it will be delayed for a while." An apprentice said.

"He is good at everything, but this is too bad, we need to help him again!" The British sailor hired by Li Jinde couldn't stand it.

"How to help?"

"We live in a side room. If the shopkeeper wants to share a room with us after he recovers from his illness, we will firmly refuse to let them. Then they will only be able to share a room together. After getting along for a long time, it is inevitable that there will be firewood." Said the British sailor .

"It makes sense! But will we make the shopkeeper dissatisfied, and then he will deduct our wages?" An apprentice asked worriedly.

"The shopkeeper probably wants to live with that noble lady in his heart, but he just has an excuse to escape. If we erase this excuse, he won't blame us." The British sailor said.

"Yes, this is the only way to bring about good things for the shopkeeper and the two of them." Several apprentices agreed with him.

Li Jinde, who was ill, didn't know that his subordinates had colluded, and he was determined not to let him squeeze in, insisting that he and Selina live in the same room.

Xiao Xiuer came out of Li Jinde's house and met Goya who was waiting for her.

Goya had been in the Army Lecture Hall for a while, and now she was standing upright with a heroic air.If she returns to the Atayal tribe in Yizhou at this time, she will find that she is completely different from the local tribe.

"Why are you here?" Xiao Xiu'er was a little surprised.

"Sister Xiao, you don't know that guy Yu Cheng. Originally, I gave the bicycle to Yu Cheng according to the command of the military leader, and then lied that I borrowed money to buy it for him. As a result, he doesn't come to me now." Ge Ya said angrily.

"I'm afraid Yu Cheng dare not come to you." Xiao Xiu'er frowned slightly.

At first, she thought that Li Jinde was very timid, but there was an even more timid Yu Cheng here, who dared not come to her after he owed Goya's favor.

"Why is it like this?" Goya was puzzled.

"He feels that he owes you a big favor, and he will dare to come to you when he plans to raise 500 taels of silver to return to you." Xiao Xiu'er said helplessly.

"That guy is too weak!" Goya said dissatisfied.

Even Chu Yun couldn't imagine that Yu Cheng's weakness was far beyond his imagination. He wanted to make Yu Cheng owe Goya a favor, but Yu Cheng didn't dare to go to Goya.

"Good sister, do you have any other method?" Goya asked Xiao Xiu'er for help.

"I don't know much about this." Xiao Xiu'er had no relationship experience, so she didn't know how to teach Goya.

"It would be great if sister Dayuer was here, she has always been very accurate." Goya said.
