Chapter 70 Marriage

The men were talking, but the women were silent.Mr. Lu asked about some things about the capital with great interest. Mu Bowen sometimes said it bluntly, and sometimes hinted it euphemistically.While talking, Mu Bowen mentioned that the emperor ordered to set up women's schools, and to build libraries, museums, zoos, botanical gardens, etc. in various places, which caused great controversy. Governors in various places responded differently. Complied.

Lu Haocang smiled and said: "This is a good thing, of course we have to obey the order. The women's school is already selecting a site, and the library has begun to be built, which is next to the Gongyuan. Others have to be slowed down, take your time, and you can't become fat if you eat one bite. "

Mu Boming was also very happy, "From now on, girls can go to school and go out to do things, instead of being trapped in the back house."

Mrs. Huang disagreed, and she didn't care about being rude, and said gently: "It's better for women to be chaste and quiet. They shouldn't show their faces, let alone do things with outside men. It's not polite."

Mu Boming smiled slightly, naturally he would not argue with her.Lu Zhaolin also smiled, and changed the topic, "The capital city is hot and dry, and the air here is humid and stuffy. The water and soil are very different. The second uncle and Miss Mu worked hard all the way. It is best to rest for a few days to get used to it. We have a lot of food here. Spicy, mainly for rheumatism, you can try to eat a little, it is good for the body."

Mu Bowen nodded, "I heard that the Land of Abundance has many delicacies. I have long been yearning for it, and I must taste it."

Speaking like this, a series of topics about various famous snacks in the three southwestern provinces were raised, which made everyone feel hungry.After the reception banquet was set up in the main hall, everyone got up and went to have a lively meal.

Mu Bowen left a generous gift for Lu's family, so he took Mu Boming and Mu Fangrui to the pasture house by the Zhuojin River to clean up and settle down.

Before leaving, Mu Fangrui gave Lu Zhaolin a hand-embroidered silk scarf shyly and timidly. Lu Zhaolin smiled and gave her a gold silk hexagonal diamond-encrusted metal jewelry box brought back from abroad. Beeswax and red coral jewelry are all Western-style treasures designed and carefully crafted by famous European teachers, which are rare in China.Mu Fangrui likes it very much, and she has a secret heart for this husband-in-law.

Satisfied with the marriage, she made active preparations, adapted to the food and customs here, learned the local dialect, and took care of the house affairs and shop fields.Mu Boming lived in the military academy for a long time, and Mu Bowen went out early and returned late, and was very busy, so she had to take care of the general affairs outside the house.In addition to being busy, there are still many Western books to read, which makes her feel very fulfilled.

The teaching materials, notes and various books that Mu Boming and Lu Zhaolin brought back from Europe were translated by Space Spirit, and then a few sets were copied, made old and distributed to relevant people. The theory of science and technology can be read by all interested adults and children.

Jinguan City is cloudy and rainy, and it is difficult to see the sun in leisure time. It is not very hot in summer, but it is stuffy and humid.Mu Fangrui had just arrived here, and it was difficult to adapt, and she caught cold several times.Fortunately, she was an adult, her body was strong, and her vitality was not hurt. After she fully recovered, she was alive and kicking.

Because she is the eldest daughter-in-law and her status is different, Huang tried her best to build a good relationship with her, and often invited her to the house, and together with Huang's eldest daughter and second daughter, or enjoyed flowers, or listened to operas, or tasted tea, or invited her The famous Shumei held some poetry and flower parties, and occasionally went shopping together to get closer to each other.

Mu Fangrui's aunt is the first wife, and Huang is not her serious mother-in-law. In addition, the Mu family is a talented person with a bright future. Huang also wants to use them to find a good marriage for her two daughters. Therefore, they don't put on airs, and both sides are polite, but they get along well.

The wedding date was set on September 25th, the eighth day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar. It was an auspicious day for the Mu family to ask an expert to make a fortune-telling in the capital. Naturally, the Lu family had no objection.

Lu Haocang entrusted Huang to take care of the marriage, and only talked about business with his eldest son, "Nowadays the influx of foreign goods has a big impact on domestic products. For example, foreign cloth has almost lost the market for homemade cloth. There are also matches, foreign oil, Foreign nails, foreign irons, etc. are selling better and better, so that our small handicraft workshops here have almost no way out. We have discussed it repeatedly, but we have no good ideas. Someone proposed to increase taxes on foreign goods. This is a way. What do you think Woolen cloth?"

Lu Zhaolin thought for a while, "There is no doubt that the technology of foreigners is more advanced than ours, and there is no need to lie to our ears. Dad can consider setting up a joint venture with foreigners. Foreigners provide technology and machinery, and we provide land and workers. Risk sharing , benefit sharing. We will build a special factory area, which will also facilitate centralized management and unified access to public facilities such as water and electricity.”

With the help of Mu Boming, Lu Haocang has built a small power plant, the whole city is connected to electric lights, and he is planning to introduce wired telegraph and telephone.With electricity, there is a foundation for the development of industry.

Lu Haocang pondered for a while, felt that there was a way, and decided to discuss it with his subordinates and staff, and if it was feasible, he would start immediately.After thinking for a while, he changed the subject, "The Yunnan Railway, the person I sent to inquire about the news is back. The French are very harsh and cruel to the recruited laborers, and they don't treat them as human beings at all. The railway in Yunnan After three years of cultivation, [-] migrant workers died, almost all young and strong. This is absolutely unbearable, and I plan to do it."

Lu Zhaolin looked at him, met his eyes, and suddenly understood what he was thinking, "Dad mean to let Brother Pao do it secretly?"

"Yeah." Lu Haocang felt that his son was smart, and nodded with a smile, "First kill a few French supervisors, and then mess with their road construction equipment. Even if the French are held accountable, let's find a few death row prisoners from the prison to take the blame .”

"A good idea." Lu Zhaolin praised, "This plan is feasible. Let the project stop first, and the migrant workers can take a breather. If the French want to bring in machinery and equipment again, let's let it go. There will be no compensation, at most. The machines they enter are tax-free. They report the case, and we file a case. Until the thief who stole the machine is found, everything is inconclusive. Maybe the French stole it themselves? We can’t be taken advantage of.”

Lu Haocang nodded solemnly, "You're right, we can't be fooled by the French."

Lu Zhaolin looked at him and smiled, "Then I'll go to my adoptive father and ask him to do this."

Lu Haocang smiled and said, "Go ahead, bring me one."

After Lu Zhaolin left the governor's mansion, he went to Xu's house.He went to visit his mother and younger siblings first, and then he found Xu Baoshan, sat in the garden with him, and had an afternoon tea.

A few days later, Xu Baoshan set off quietly with his two sons, three technicians sent by Lu Zhaolin to dismantle the mechanical equipment, and a group of confidantes. To Yunnan.

Brother Pao of Sichuan and the Gelaohui of Yunnan came from the same source, and they smuggled and sold goods to each other, so they had a good relationship.When Xu Baoshan arrives in Yunnan, he will hook up with the eldest brother, second brother and third brother of the local Gelao Association to act together.

Killing a few foreigners who cruelly oppressed and persecuted Chinese laborers and had a lot of blood and debts in their hands is not a big deal, but if we want to quietly transport away the large pieces of machinery and rails for railway construction, we must have enough manpower, and it will not work without the cooperation of Yunnan natives of.Only when people from the rivers and lakes of the two provinces come together can the task be successfully completed.Of course, there are too many people to talk about, and it is easy to leak secrets. Xu Baoshan only found a few bosses who definitely hated foreigners, and only allowed them to bring their confidants to participate, so as not to reveal the news.

He didn't mention the government, but everyone knew that he had an adopted son, who now recognizes his ancestors and returned to his clan. He is already the eldest son of the governor of Sichuan, and he is highly valued by the governor.Now that he is here to handle this matter, everyone will follow behind and contribute, and they have sold it in front of the governor's son. It will be beneficial in the future, so they work hard and keep their mouths shut.

When they approached the Yunnan railway construction site, Lu Zhaolin's wedding day also arrived.

The wedding was grand, with a lot of guests and beaming.

Although a constitution is about to be established, everyone still pays attention to rules and etiquette, and marriage naturally follows the ancient etiquette.Lu Zhaolin lived in ancient times for many years, and he was familiar with these rules. He did not need to rehearse beforehand, and he did it very well. He did not make any mistakes until he brought the bride back, worshiped him, and sent him to the bridal chamber.

After taking off his hijab, drinking a cup of wine, and going through various ceremonies, Lu Zhaolin went out to continue entertaining guests.There are too many guests, and there are sixty tables, the scene is very spectacular.Lu Zhaolin used his mental strength and was still half drunk. He was not helped back to his new house until nightfall.

Mu Fangrui was a little shy, but she still insisted on going forward to take him, and undressed him.When she took off her underwear, she was so ashamed that her hands were shaking, and she could hardly undo the buttons.

Lu Zhaolin woke up, put his hands on her wrists lightly, and said softly: "Don't make it too difficult, you go take a bath, I will do it myself."

Mu Fangrui nodded blushing as if she had been pardoned, and hurried to the clean room connected to the bedroom.

Lu Zhaolin waved all the maids and mothers in the room to go out, and then locked the door, allowing Du Li to use the power of space to create an illusion.

After Mu Fangrui came out of the clean room, she stepped into the illusion.That night, she felt the warmth of the red silk tent with Lu Zhaolin, the spring breeze of the flowers and the moon, the pain of breaking the melon, and the joy of ecstasy.It wasn't until the middle of the night that the two were exhausted and fell asleep.

In fact, Lu Zhaolin had already entered the space, used Lingquan Lingguo to soothe his alcohol inside, and then ate a bowl of Lingmi porridge before entering the bedroom of the luxurious villa in the core area and lying down to rest.

His portable space has developed very well now, and it is all managed by Du Li hard.All kinds of topography and landforms are used. According to the distribution of spiritual power, trees or grass or flowers are planted or cultivated into farmland. Large areas are also delineated and various animals are raised.A large number of intelligent robots are working in space, making the world more and more vibrant.

His spiritual body is still placed by the cold spring, and it has become more and more agile and powerful.The imprint of his soul that he left in the sea of ​​consciousness of the spirit body has also gradually grown up, vaguely connected with his mind, and needs to continue to be nurtured.

The chubby Du Li was held in his arms and said happily: "Father's eight-treasure panlong gun is back, and a spirit has been born in it. Now my father won't need it for the time being. I will put it in the evil blood pool Raise it, and strive to raise the spirit of the weapon and make it a spiritual weapon."

This long spear is the weapon he brought with him when he performed the mission of "Northern Jin Dynasty". Later, he left it as a family heirloom. After more than three hundred years of fighting on the battlefield, that time and space entered the age of firearms, so it is said that it "turned into a dragon and flew away." .Before Lu Zhaolin came to carry out the mission, the mastermind suddenly teleported the gun into his space.

For such miraculous things, the special police will not ask, because the mastermind will not explain, everything has to be explored by themselves.Lu Zhaolin looked at this long spear that had been able to communicate with him, and felt very fond of it.Du Li said that he wanted to make it into a spiritual weapon, and he was very happy.

Holding Du Li's chubby body and kissing his cute chubby face, he said softly, "Thank you."
