Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 973
Li Jinde's temporarily rented courtyard in the capital was decorated with lights and festoons, and it was all festive red in the past.Because the high halls of both parties were absent, the wedding banquet was relatively simple.But everyone who was invited was unusual, either a big businessman who had invested in a Western company, or a few women with special status that Selina knew.

Several subordinates were holding firecrackers and crackling outside, and some invited chefs in the courtyard were busy preparing dishes.

"Treasurer Li, congratulations!" Each of the major shareholders of Western companies came with a few entourages and congratulated Li Jinde.

"In the future, the Western company's fleet will go to Europe, and I would like to ask for your advice!" Li Jinde bowed his hand in return.

"Where is it? In the future, we will jointly develop and grow Western companies and make money together." A group of big businessmen said.

In Li Jinde's room, Selina was wearing a red wedding dress, sitting quietly in front of the bronze mirror, while Liu Rushi was combing her hair with a wooden comb behind her.

Selina looked at the almost completely changed self in the bronze mirror, feeling a little uneasy and looking forward to it.

Ella, Sophia, Da Yuer, Xiao Xiuer, and Goya are the female representatives of Sarina, and they are the only friends she has met in the East.

They watched Liu Rushi combing Selina's hair, each having their own concerns.

"Sister Ella was so bright and charming back then, but it's a pity that the military leader only invited few people, and many people didn't even know about it. The military leader should make up a bigger wedding." Dayuer said.

"If you have children, why do you need to hold a make-up wedding... I think it's better to keep it simple like this, which saves money and is not so tiring." Ella didn't think so.

"Weddings in the East are very different from ours. We have a couple get married in the church and receive God's blessing." Princess Sophia was a little envious of her companion. She didn't expect that she had only arrived in the East for a long time. is about to become a woman.

After Liu Rushi helped her tidy her long hair, she put on a phoenix crown, Xiapei, and a red pleated skirt for her.

"We don't worship gods here, but worship heaven and earth, high hall, and raise eyebrows. Later, we have to put on a red hijab, and wait until it is sent to the bridal chamber, until the groom helps you uncover it." Liu Rushi reminded.

"You mean you want Sarina to wear such a red turban all the time? Are you afraid that she will fall?" It was the first time Princess Sophia heard of such a strange etiquette.

"This red hijab is an extremely thin gauze, which can vaguely see things, and with me leading the way, as long as you walk lightly, you won't fall." Liu Rushi explained.

"In the oriental tradition, the red hijab has the meaning of hiding shame and warding off evil spirits." Ella further explained the meaning behind it to Princess Sofia.

"That's great. It's my first time attending a wedding too. When will I be able to become a bride with a phoenix crown and Xiapei." Goya stayed in the army lecture hall for two years, and a lot of wildness was smoothed out, but he didn't have a relationship with Chu Yun. Worried that it would disrupt the order of the wedding, she envied Selina, "Sister Xiao, if one of us gets married first in the future, the other will be her bridesmaid, okay?"

"At that time, I'll be your bridesmaid. As for me, it's okay if I don't get married. I'm a witch in the tribe. I mean, I can't get married for the rest of my life." Xiao Xiu'er said.

"But Sister Xiao, it's because you want to remain mysterious. Now that you have left the tribe and returned to your hometown, you don't have to follow the old rules." After Goya came out of the tribe, he understood many things and no longer felt The witches in the tribe are solemn and inviolable, and the relationship with Xiao Xiu'er is even closer.

"How can it be so easy to find a good relationship, otherwise there would be no Qiqiao Festival today. Although the Qiqiao Festival is the weaving girl's handicraft, behind it is the woman's yearning for a happy marriage and family." Xiao Xiuer said.

Xiao Xiu'er still has some things in her heart that she hasn't said. The long-term contact with Chu Yun made her feel less interested in other men.

"The capital has the Academy of Sciences, the Army Lecture Hall, the Sixth Ministry, and the Military Department. Tianjin Wei has the Navy Lecture Hall. There are countless young talents. Shall I help you find one in the Army Lecture Hall?" Goya asked.

"I think you should take care of your and Yu Cheng's affairs, and don't think about it for me." Xiao Xiu'er said, "I still have a project in the medical department, and I am very busy."

"Yu Cheng is a rotten piece of wood, meaningless." Goya curled his lips when he heard Yu Cheng's name.

When Da Yuer saw Selina in the phoenix crown and Xiapei, she felt a little envious in her heart.

"Sister Dayuer, do you have any other ideas about Yu Cheng and I? I also want to wear such a wedding dress and hold such a wedding." Goya asked Dayuer for advice.

In the past, Da Yuer had helped her control Yu Cheng into obedience, so Goya admired Da Yuer even more.After Da Yuer returned from Japan to settle down this time, Goya even regarded Da Yuer as an "emotional mentor".

Da Yuer was a little helpless, and she had never experienced feelings, so she could only give advice to Goya based on her intuition.

"If you want to get married early, just find a chance to be alone with him and push him down. This is not a shameful thing, isn't it said that men and women are equal, men can push down women, women Why can't you overthrow the man." Da Yu'er made a fierce suggestion.

"Then he will be responsible for me, and then marry me?" Goya didn't seem to mind this simple and rude way, but worried about whether Yu Cheng would be responsible afterwards.

Xiao Xiuer frowned slightly, Da Yuer's way of instigating Goya was very dangerous.

Aila's cheeks were slightly hot. Liu Rushi also taught her to take the initiative to push Chu Yun down. Although it is different from urging marriage, it is indeed a huge challenge for the woman to take the initiative in this era.

"It's really inappropriate to say that it's two people who don't know each other. It's really inappropriate to say that you just flirt with each other when they meet. But you have been together on and off for two years. If you know each other's character, it's okay to take risks. If he doesn't want it afterwards Getting married can only show that he is not sincere to you, so don't delay your youth." Da Yuer added.

"Sister Da Yu'er, what you said is very reasonable. I will look for an opportunity to overthrow him." Goya bared his small canine teeth, eager to try.

"In order to be a bride, isn't this way too much nonsense? I think you should be honest and have a good talk, maybe things will go smoothly unexpectedly." Xiao Xiu'er couldn't stand it anymore, and intervened in the conversation between the two .

"Sister Xiao, I think Sister Dayuer is right. Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures." Goya sided with Dayuer.
