Nine hundred and sixty-fourth, let's get married

The next day, Li Jinde woke up and found something was wrong, with soft hair tips falling on his face.

Li Jinde was as if he was being woken up by cold water, and he was completely sleepy - he was hugging Salina in a very ambiguous position, and she seemed to have not woken up yet.

"No, can you drink too much last night and 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 and found that he had no impression at all.

And his clothes were actually replaced!

Li Jinde made new discoveries and confirmed that something must have happened last night!

"This situation can only be responsible." The beauty was in her arms, and Li Jinde felt that this posture was quite comfortable.

After a while, Salina woke up and happened to meet Li Jinde's sight.

"Ah!" the two exclaimed apart.

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

"Responsible...? What's responsible?" Salina asked in confusion when she leaned against the wall.

"I must have done something too much because of drunkenness last night, but please don't worry, I will definitely take responsibility!" Li Jinde said with his head raised and his chest out.

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

"It's better to get married, as soon as possible!" Li Jinde thought for a while. If Salina had been pregnant before marriage because of what happened last night, it would be unethical and moral in this era, both East and West.

"Get married?" Salina originally wanted to explain, but when she heard Li Jinde propose getting married, she no longer wanted to explain it clearly.

"I'll look through the calendar and find a nearby good day to get married, and the latest next month." Li Jinde said.

Salina didn't expect that Li Jinde became so anxious after something like this happened: "Would it be later..."

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

"No, I...just decide." Salina passed the decision to Li Jinde, and her heart was overwhelmed.

She wanted Li Jinde to come forward as soon as possible, but she was worried when she really reached such a critical moment. After all, the two countries are thousands of miles apart, and if something happens in the future, it will be difficult to find relatives.

When Li Jinde and Salina came out for dinner, Li Jinde's men all felt something was wrong with the atmosphere.

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

"You guys wait, we'll have a wedding banquet soon."

Several subordinates keenly noticed the abnormality of the atmosphere and talked about it privately.

"Well, what are you talking about?" Li Jinde also noticed that these men behaved strangely.

"Reporting to the shopkeeper, do you have anything important to announce today?" asked a subordinate.

"How do you know?" Li Jinde became more and more confused. "I will soon marry Miss Salina. Please help me find a gentleman who understands Feng Shui and set a good day. The sooner the better."

Sure enough! Several subordinates gave each other a certain look and then said to Li Jinde: "Shopkeeper, we must find a prestigious Feng Shui master in the capital!"

"Go and get back quickly, money is not a problem." Li Jinde didn't know what medicine his subordinates were selling, but he was afraid of getting married with his son, so he could only get married as soon as possible.

Mother, let you come here. Li Jinde thought of my mother in Xiamen City and wanted to send someone to Xiamen City to inform her before returning to the capital. He didn't know when it would be.

After several subordinates left the courtyard, they were busy looking for Feng Shui master.

"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 kept away from ghosts and gods and didn't forget to tell fortunes, saying that it was because it was because there were fears that some gangsters in the world misled the people."

"At this time, the shopkeeper asked us to look for Feng Shui masters. Could it be that we have to go to the countryside to find a fortune teller in remote and remote areas? I don't know if it is accurate or not."

Several of them felt quite difficult about Li Jinde's search for a fortune teller.

"You Eastern fortune tellers can't be found. I wonder if Western fortune tellers can come in handy?" British sailor Roberts suggested.

"There are also fortune tellers in the West?" Everyone said in surprise.

"I met a Roman missionary who lived here in the Ming Dynasty in the capital. They should be similar to the fortune teller in the East, right? Anyway, the shopkeeper just wanted to find a faster day to get married. We would give the missionary some money and ask him to designate an earlier day." Roberts said.

"The missionary is here to choose the days?" Everyone was incredible about Roberts's opinion.

"I'm looking for a Feng Shui master to choose a good day from the almanac to pursue peace of mind. I think the shopkeeper means getting married as soon as possible, so what if I spend money to buy peace of mind?" Roberts said.

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

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

"Okay, we can't find Feng Shui master in the city anyway, so we can try to find a missionary to come over." The others actually accepted this ridiculous proposal.

There were many missionaries in the capital who lived in the city during the Ming Dynasty, the famous Matteo Ricci and Johnson Chan. Chu Yun, who came to power, did not do anything to them. They still lived the same life as before, but they were forbidden to spread their faith in public places.

"Want to let me pick a good day in the almanac?" The elderly missionary heard the purpose of Roberts and others, and his dry face was like bitter gourd. He was a missionary!

"Old Piro, our shopkeeper is the sailing hero Li Jinde. He plans to marry the noble lady of Britain. If you are proficient in Eastern and Western culture, you will definitely be able to find a good day." Roberts said.

"It turns out that he is a sailing hero in the East! I have lived in the East for decades, and I understand the almanac, but we missionaries do not do such things. You have to understand me." Old Piro still refused.

"If Old Piro is willing to go with us to meet our shopkeeper, this Spanish silver dollar is yours." Roberts gritted his teeth and stuffed a double-column patterned Spanish silver dollar into the hands of the missionary Piro.

When Old Piro saw the Spanish silver dollars, he couldn't help but feel a little moved. His life in the capital was very difficult.

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