Chapter 965 Chapter 960 Four Let's Get Married

When Li Jinde woke up the next day, he found that there was something wrong with soft hair falling on his face.

Li Jinde seemed to be woken up by being splashed with cold water, without any sleepiness—he was hugging Selina in a very ambiguous posture, and she didn't seem to wake up yet.

"No way, did I drink too much last night, actually..." Li Jinde didn't dare to move for fear of waking her up. At the same time, he tried his best to recall what happened yesterday, but found that he didn't have any memory at all.

And his clothes were changed!
Li Jinde has made a new discovery, and it is even more certain that something must have happened last night!

"In this situation, we can only take responsibility." With the beautiful woman in his arms, Li Jinde felt that this posture was quite comfortable.

After a while, Selina woke up, just in line with Li Jinde's eyes.

"Ah!" The two exclaimed and separated.

"I, I will be responsible. I will be responsible for everything that happened last night." Li Jinde said quickly.

"Responsible...? What is responsible?" Selina leaned against the wall and asked inexplicably.

"Last night I must have done something excessive because I was drunk, but please rest assured, I will definitely take responsibility!" Li Jinde said with his head raised.

Selina understood what Li Jinde was referring to, and wanted to clarify that nothing happened: "Actually..."

"Why don't we get married, as soon as possible!" Li Jinde thought for a while, if Selina got pregnant because of what happened last night, it would be unethical in this era, no matter whether it is East or West.

"Married?" Selina originally wanted to explain, but after hearing Li Jinde's proposal of getting married, she no longer wanted to explain it clearly.

"Let me look through the almanac and find a nearby auspicious day to get married, next month at the latest." Li Jinde said.

Selina did not expect Li Jinde to become so anxious after such a thing happened: "How about a little later..."

"Why, don't you want to?" Li Jinde asked.

"No, I...you decide." Selina handed over the decision to Li Jinde, feeling very upset.

Before, she wanted Li Jinde to bring it up as soon as possible, but she was worried at such a juncture. After all, the two countries are separated by tens of thousands of miles. If something happens in the future, it will not be easy to find relatives.

When Li Jinde and Selina came out for dinner, Li Jinde's subordinates felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

"It seems that the shopkeeper did succeed last night, and we don't need our help this time."

"Just wait, we will have a wedding soon."

Several subordinates were keenly aware of the abnormal atmosphere and discussed in private.

"Hey, what are you talking about?" Li Jinde also noticed that these people were behaving strangely.

"Reporting to the shopkeeper, do you have any important announcements today?" one of the subordinates asked.

"How do you know?" Li Jinde became more and more puzzled, "I will soon marry Miss Selina, you can help me find a gentleman who understands Feng Shui, and set a good date, the sooner the better."

as expected!Several subordinates gave each other a sure look, and then said to Li Jinde: "Shopkeeper, we must find a famous Feng Shui master in the capital!"

"Go and come back quickly, money is not a problem." Li Jinde didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the gourds of his subordinates, but he was afraid of marrying his son, so he could only get married as soon as possible.

Mother, let me come over again when the time comes.Li Jinde thought of his old lady in Xiamen City, and he didn't know when he was going to send someone to Xiamen City to inform him before returning to the capital.

After the men left the courtyard, they were busy looking for Mr. Feng Shui.

"I heard that the government strictly prohibits fortune tellers from setting up stalls in the city. Where should we find someone who understands Feng Shui?"

"I don't know why the government keeps a respectful distance from ghosts and gods, and they don't even care about fortune-telling, saying that they are afraid that some gangsters will mislead the people."

"The shopkeeper asked us to find Mr. Feng Shui at this time. Could it be that we have to go to the countryside to find it? The fortune tellers in the remote villages don't know whether it is accurate or not."

Several of them found it difficult for Li Jinde to find a fortune teller.

"You can't find the fortune tellers in the east. I don't know if the fortune tellers in the west can come in handy?" British sailor Roberts suggested.

"There are also fortune tellers in the West?" Everyone was surprised.

"I met a Roman missionary in Beijing who lived here during the Ming Dynasty. They should be similar to fortune tellers in the East, right? Anyway, the shopkeeper just wants to find a faster date to get married. We will give this missionary a sum of money. , let him specify an earlier date." Roberts said.

"Missionaries come to pick a day?" Everyone was incredulous about Roberts' opinion.

"Finding Mr. Feng Shui to pick a good day from the almanac is just for the pursuit of peace of mind. I think the shopkeeper means to get married as soon as possible, so what about spending money to buy peace of mind?" Roberts said.

"What you said makes sense..." Several other people thought about it for a while, and felt that Roberts' idea was a bit inappropriate, but it was still a feasible solution.

"Invite him over and let the shopkeeper see if he is satisfied. If the shopkeeper is satisfied, we will give you money. If you are not satisfied, you will not pay. This is the same as doing business." Roberts said.

"Well, anyway, we can't find a Feng Shui master in the city, so we can try to find a missionary." Others actually accepted this ridiculous proposal.

There are many missionaries in the capital who lived in the city during the Ming Dynasty, the famous Matteo Ricci and Tang Ruowang.After Chu Yun came to power, he didn't do anything to them. They still lived the same life as before, but they were forbidden to spread their beliefs in public places.

"Do you want me to pick a good day in the almanac?" The old missionary heard the intention of Roberts and others, his dry face was like a bitter melon, he was a missionary!

"Old Pirlo, our shopkeeper is Li Jinde, a seafaring hero, and he plans to marry a noble lady from Britain. You are proficient in Eastern and Western cultures, and you will definitely be able to find a good day." Roberts said.

"It turned out to be a seafaring hero in the East! I have lived in the East for decades, and I understand the almanac, but we missionaries don't do this kind of thing. You have to be considerate of me." Old Pirlo still refused.

"If old Pirro is willing to go with us to meet our shopkeeper, this Spanish silver dollar is yours." Gritting his teeth, Roberts stuffed a Spanish silver dollar with a double-column pattern into the hands of missionary Pirro.

When Old Pirlo saw the Spanish silver dollar, he couldn't help being a little moved. His life in the capital was very tight.

"If our shopkeeper is satisfied, maybe there will be more rewards." Roberts tempted.

"Okay, I'll bring the almanac over there." Old Pirlo was a little moved.
