Chapter 0046 - Marriage (Asking for Points, Asking for Votes, Asking for Collection)
Quanzhou, Li family.
was about to lead the army again, and Li Pengfei went to bid farewell to his mother, Xun.
For his son's departure, Xun is obviously very reluctant, and more worried. It is said that the son is worried about the mother, not to mention that the son still leads the army to the battle. The sword has no eyes, what will happen on the battlefield in the rain of bullets and arrows, who can predict?
Her husband went early, and she has no other blood except this son, so to speak, her son is her only support, and it is also the whole meaning of her life. She didn't know if she would have the courage to live if something happened to her son.
The son is undoubtedly outstanding, and in just a few years, he has not only lifted the family out of distress, but also accumulated a net worth of hundreds of millions. Now it is difficult to raise troops in Yasukuni, and after only a few major wars, he has been awarded the title of marquis and general, and his son is just the age of a weak crown.
For her son to have such an achievement, as a mother, Xun should be proud and grateful. However, Xun would rather his son be ordinary, rather than live this kind of rich but worrying life all the time.
However, she can't say this kind of mood to anyone, she can only silently keep it in her heart.
"Yi'er, can't you not go out in person? You are also a general now, let your subordinates lead the troops to the battle, can't you just plan in the middle? Xun hesitated for a long time, but still said what was in his heart.
Li Pengfei's heart moved, he knew the worry in his mother's heart, but he still shook his head and said, "Mother, please forgive the child for being unfilial." The military situation is like fire, and the fighter plane is fleeting, how can the child not follow the army? The mother thinks about it, the brothers in the army are all good men like the children, and their parents and relatives trust the children and let them join the children's army, shouldn't the children be responsible for them? ”
Xun sighed and said faintly: "What Yi'er said is very true, she is confused for her mother. ”
After a pause, Xun Shi said again: "Yi'er, there is a sentence that my mother has thought about for a long time, and I still decided to tell you about it......"
Li Pengfei said with a straight face: "Mother, please speak." ”
Xun seemed to be recalling something, and after a while he spoke: "Yi'er, you are already twenty-one years old, if it were other families, I am afraid that the children would be several years old." My family has been banned by the party for many years, and your father died, and your mother has never mentioned your marriage to you. But now that the party ban has been lifted, my mother should talk to you. ”
"Huh?" Li Pengfei was stunned, but he didn't expect his mother Xun to mention this matter.
Regarding the marriage, Li Pengfei really didn't care. As a time-traveler, most people married late in the era in which he lived, and it was not uncommon to get married in their early thirties. Therefore, after coming to this world, he has never cared about marriage. After all, he is only twenty-one years old now, and he is only twenty years old.
And Xun did not mention this matter to Li Pengfei because Li Pengfei was still in the period of filial piety for two years, and when the period of filial piety was over, Li Pengfei began to be busy with the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce again, and Xun did not have much opportunity to mention marriage to him.
Xun saw Li Pengfei's surprised look, and said angrily: "You kid, you don't care at all. If you look at Pengju, he is only a year older than you, but he already has two children. Yun Chang is about the same, the same year as you, and even a few months younger than you, but their family Guan Ping is already four years old. If he hadn't avoided trouble all these years, he would have had several children. ”
Li Pengfei had no choice but to put on a teachable appearance.
Seeing him like this, Xun Shi couldn't blame him anymore, after all, his son was already a general who led tens of thousands of troops, even if he was at home, she had to take care of his face.
"When the party ban was not raised, your father once set a family affair for you. Now that your father is gone, you have to take care of the marriage yourself. Xun said babblingly.
Hearing Xun say this, Li Pengfei couldn't help but interject: "Mother, this happened more than ten years ago, and our Li family has suffered all these years, maybe people have already ruined their marriage, and what are you doing when you mention this matter." ”
Xun Shi Zhengse said: "No, Cai Bojiao is a gentleman who does what he says, and he will definitely not be able to regret his marriage!" ”
"What? Cai Bo Chat?! Li Pengfei was so shocked that he almost jumped up on the spot.
Xun glared at his son and said solemnly: "I'm shocked, what kind of system!" Moreover, how can the elders call them at will?! ”
Li Pengfei hurriedly apologized and changed the subject: "Mother, let's talk about this family matter, what's going on?" ”
Xun Shi said while recalling: "Your Uncle Cai and your father are both disciples of Taifu Hu Guang, and they have a good relationship with each other. In the first year of Jianning, your father took you to Chenliu to visit your Uncle Cai, and your Aunt Cai was pregnant at that time. Your Uncle Cai told your father that if he gave birth to a son in the future, he would marry you as a brother of the opposite sex, and if he gave birth to a daughter, he would marry you. Soon, Miss Cai was born, and according to the agreement, you are husband and wife. ”
Li Pengfei listened to his mother's story, and couldn't help but complain a little, saying that he didn't expect this ridge to appear not only in the Tang and Song dynasties, but also in the Han Dynasty.
Regarding the famous Cai Yong, Li Pengfei is naturally very clear. However, according to his understanding from later generations, Cai Yong seems to have only one daughter, that is, Cai Wenji, a talented woman who is famous in history. It's just that Cai Wenji's age doesn't seem to match the Miss Cai family that her mother talked about, could it be that Cai Yong has other daughters?
Thinking of this, Li Pengfei couldn't help asking: "Mother, what is the name of Miss Cai?" ”
Xun thought for a while and said, "At that time, your father gave your Uncle Cai a piece of Yanwan jade, and your Uncle Cai named his daughter Yan ......."
"Cai Yan? ......" Li Pengfei was dumbfounded.
"If I'm not mistaken, Miss Cai is seventeen years old this year...... Alas, if the world is peaceful, it is a good time for you to come to the door to propose marriage...... Xun sighed, "However, Yi'er, you are also a general of the imperial court now, and you will soon send troops to suppress the thieves, and you will definitely make contributions soon." Well, when you finish killing the thief, you can go to Chenliu to propose to your Uncle Cai. ”
Li Pengfei sweated profusely and said curtly: "Mother, is it a little early to talk about these things now? Moreover, you didn't say it, Miss Cai is only seventeen years old this year, and she is still young......"
Before Li Pengfei finished speaking, Xun was unhappy and interrupted him: "Why is seventeen years old so young?" I want to marry your father when I was my mother, I was only fifteen years old, and I gave birth to you at the age of sixteen! ”
"Uh......" Li Pengfei didn't dare to say anything. However, in his heart, he kept complaining about the marriage of this era. At the age of fifteen or sixteen, in the next generation, he is still in junior high school, right? Moreover, the age mentioned in the Han Dynasty is all imaginary years, and fifteen or sixteen years old is actually fourteen or fifteen years old in later generations.
After thinking about it, Li Pengfei still defended himself and said: "Mother, in these years, there has been a lot of chaos, and it is unknown whether Uncle Cai's family still lives in Chenliu. If their family had already moved away from Chen Liu, it would be difficult to find this vast sea of people...... Therefore, it is better to consider the marriage in the long run. ”
Xun thought for a while, nodded and said: "What you said is also reasonable, but you have to take this matter to heart, and when the world is too peaceful, you will find it with your heart." Now that you are a general in command of the army, and you have a chamber of commerce to do business in the north and south, it must not be difficult. ”
Li Pengfei did not dare to make any more excuses, so he had to agree, and then hurriedly bid farewell to his mother. Xun repeatedly told him that he must be careful when he is out fighting. Li Pengfei agreed and walked out.
When I walked to the door, I heard Xun muttering to himself: "What Yi'er said is also reasonable, this Miss Cai doesn't know when she will be found, and this Yi'er's marriage can't be delayed." Yes, the position of the eldest woman is reserved for Miss Cai's family, so let's help him take a few concubines first. My Li family is thin, so I just let Yi'er spread the branches for the Li family......"
When Li Pengfei heard this, he stumbled under his feet and almost hit the wall.
