Chapter 159 The Right to Speak (Thanks to Xiaonuo for the monthly ticket~)
The British government asked whether Xu Jingzhen wanted to marry a commoner, or he and Li brought their daughter home, and the other went out to see a doctor. Regarding the matter of the female doctor, except for Xu Jingzhen, everyone, from the old lady to Xu Jingye, not to mention Xu Jingzhen’s mother-in-law, all of them were opposed.
Others, such as Xu Jingzhen's sister-in-law Wang, Xu Jingzhen's younger brother Xu Jingyou (yóu), and the second family's family did not speak, of course because they did not have the right position to speak.
In the end, Xu Jingye ended the farce tonight with one sentence: "Okay, stop messing around and making grandma and grandma angry."
The old British lady also said before leaving He said: "Because of your destiny, if you don't want to marry a wife, we can let you go, but if you want to marry a wife, you will never marry such a girl!"
Xu Jingzhen returned to his yard with disappointment and anger.
Of course, this anger is not only because his family does not allow him to marry the girl he loves, but also because he cannot even marry the girl he likes. The anger of being powerless.
Xu Jingzhen even wondered at this time, did Li Sanniang directly reject his marriage proposal because she knew about his incompetence?
Speaking of Li Sanniang, she is currently watching the four little ones boxing in the yard.
She didn't pay attention to what Xu Jingzhen said before about asking for marriage.
It's not that Li Sanniang underestimates Xu Jingzhen, but it can be seen from Fang Chengxian that the premise that a son of a noble family can "do whatever he wants" is because of his status as a son of a noble family, not because of himself.
If Fang Chengxian had not had a house and been carefully raised with good medicine since he was a child, he would have died early.
The same goes for Xu Jingzhen.
Xu Jingzhen is better than Fang Chengxian in that he has an elder brother above him to establish a family and inherit the family name, so he does not need to work hard to support him.
The British government could spend a lot of money to send him to Wudang Mountain to learn martial arts because of his strange and eccentric destiny since childhood, or it could also allow him to live a more comfortable life by allowing him to remain unmarried until he is older. .
After all, his two elder brothers had already married and had children, and the next generation in the family already had five or six husbands. He really didn't care whether Xu Jingzhen had any biological children.
Even if Xu Jingzhen never married a wife or left any descendants, he would still be able to live a peaceful life relying on the British government.
But the British Duke will never allow him to marry a girl he likes but is not a daughter of a high-ranking noble family to come to the house, which will lower the glory of the British Duke.
Unless one day Xu Jing can really make a breakthrough on his own, as if he can make another great contribution and ask Emperor Wu to make him a Duke, ah no, a Marquis will do.
At that time, Xu Jingzhen will be qualified to talk to the current head of the British government about which girl he wants to marry.
Nowadays, a man who is popular because of the Duke's palace and is called Mr. Xu Sanlang when he is away from home. He is about to reach his thirtieth year and still has no achievements and no achievements. What qualifications does he have to say who he wants to marry?
After the post-dinner digestion activity, everyone in the Li family gathered together to chat for a while before dispersing.
Li Sanniang feels that she will still dream tonight, but it won’t be a nightmare, it will be a dream similar to last night and she will know that she is dreaming.
Not long after lying down, Li Sanniang fell into a dream.
This time it was not the scene that happened at that time, but in a strange place. Li Sanniang had her hands tied and forced to kneel on the ground. She raised her head and looked forward. There was a Lang Guan above her. He was shouting loudly and asking: "If you kill someone, according to the law, you must obey the law!"
Li Sanniang wanted to defend herself, saying that she would be killed if she did not resist, that she was innocent, and that she had no choice under the circumstances.
It was clear that her mouth was not stuffed or blocked, but when she opened her mouth, she could not make a sound. At this time, she heard the man above her say the verdict against Li Sanniang: " The murderer Li Sanniang shall be sentenced to death!”
Then the scene changed and Li Sanniang was sent to a high platform set up on Zhuque Street. This time, a cloth was stuffed in her mouth and her head was held down. On the guillotine, standing beside him was a big, round-waisted swordsman.
Li Sanniang heard crying in front of her and turned her head to look over there. She saw Mother Li who was being held by Brother Li and Brother Li, crying and shouting " Sanniang, Sanniang, my son.”
“The time has come for the execution!”
Li Sanniang couldn't resist, she just waited for the knife and ax hand to strike down, and then she went to see the Lord of Hell. Suddenly, a person broke in in front of the high platform, it was Father Li!
“Sanniang, Sanniang, don’t be afraid, Aye is here.”
Before Li’s father ran to Li Sanniang, he was stood aside by the Yamen He almost fell to the ground with a knife.
Li Sanniang was frightened by the blood on the ground, and shouted "no" from her throat.
In the middle of the night, Li Sanniang suddenly woke up from her nightmare. She was sitting on the bed and gasping for air. The scene in the dream where Li's father was chopped made her very frightened. Li Sanniang wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeves and got up. Under the moonlight, I picked up the teapot on the table and drank several sips before suppressing the fear in my chest.
Lightly changing out of the wet underwear on her back, Li Sanniang lay back on the bed, thinking to herself that it seemed that she still felt very guilty about killing someone at that time. .
Rationally, you understand that if you don’t kill someone, you will die, and it was the man in black who made the first move and had evil intentions.
But for people with a high sense of morality, it is difficult for them to accept doing certain things as a matter of course. Even though they know that they are doing something to protect their own interests, they will still be under tremendous mental pressure.
This is what Li Sanniang is like now.
She slept in a daze until five o'clock in the morning, when Li Sanniang woke up.
After getting up, she followed the four little ones and ran two small circles in the courtyard as usual, and Li Sanniang continued to study the poison technique.
Just after Si hour, guests from the Li family came.
It was Uncle Li's Erlang who came. He sat down and talked for a few words, and then he realized that it was Li Sanniang who met a gangster and killed him on her way home from duty. , let him know, and then came to greet him.
Before this relative left, the Qian family and the Gao family both sent stewards to greet him and brought gifts, mostly medicinal materials.
Later, at Dr. Gao's place, Tu Wa and Shen Qiuniang, who had moved to the three outer cities, also brought things. Even Tang Mingyue and Chen Yanfu, who had just met Li Sanniang, came over.
I was so busy that I left Tang Mingyue and Chen Yanfu to have lunch at Li's house before sending them off.
Before sending all these people away, the next group of people came again.
Old man Zhou who planned to sell the house to Li Sanniang next door also came with his eldest son. In his early years, old man Zhou traveled all over the country to do business and saw a lot. Unlike others, he did not care about Li Sanniang at first. Although he was in good health, he praised Li's father and said, "It's like giving birth to a daughter, so why bother having a son?"
In Mr. Zhou's opinion, ordinary men may not be able to escape when they encounter a bad guy, let alone fight back.
But if Li Sanniang, a little girl, can do it, she is better than a man and a capable person!
is worthy of praise.
Moreover, Mr. Zhou continued: "Sister, you don't have to worry about those talkative women, they are just jealous of you. As for those pedantic people, don't take it to heart, they are just knives. He was just standing there and talking without pain in his back."
Li Sanniang was puzzled, "Oh? What did Mr. Zhou say at this time? Only then did he realize that Li Sanniang and the others were looking at him with puzzled faces.
"It's my fault, I'm too talkative, I'm too talkative. Nothing, nothing, don't worry about it."
Sister-in-law Li felt strange, so she went out and walked back and forth on the street, waiting for her When she came back, Li Sanniang saw Mrs. Li with a livid face, as if she had been quarreling with someone outside and was still angry after losing and not talking about it.
