Professor Li’s Married Life

"Dark things! You speak these nonsense with your conscience. If your nephew is a good nephew, why doesn't your mother come to tell me openly, but she didn't mention a word in front of me when she visited twice in her life? When you go to the house and whisper, why, you are going to change Geng Tie with your back now, you dare! Now that I am old and temperamental, you will not put me in your eyes, right?"

This incident really angered the Sun clan, otherwise she would not teach her how to behave in front of Li Chengze and Gu Celadon, and would not give her Sun clan face at all.

"No, mother, dare not my daughter-in-law!" The Bai family almost knelt down and swore.

The Sun snorted heavily, "I think you have nothing to be afraid of now. I will put it here today. You don't need to intervene in Zhi'er's marriage. Your nephew will tell who you like to tell. !"

"But I have promised to my natal family!" Bai's heart became anxious and blurted out.

The Sun sneered, "What a Bai family, this is a calculation of a wife with empty gloves to go back, Bai, you can solve the things you made yourself, don’t want me to wipe your butt, the Bai family dare to come and watch me Don't ask people to sweep out!"

The resentment on Bai's face flashed by.

Finally, Li Cheng also said: "I know my mother loves my nephew, but my sister is my mother's own flesh and blood, so I should think more about it."

Bai bowed his head and went out.

Sun left Li Chengze to talk to Gu Celadon.

There is nothing else, Bai's can't trust, the marriage of the two granddaughters can only be managed by the old lady herself.

First, she found a matchmaker and other people to pay attention, and soon there was a candidate. Sun picked a few suitable ones, and asked Li Chengze to come and see. She was afraid that a bad marriage might affect Li Chengze. .

Li Cheng wanted to say that since it was Li Zhi's relatives, she should also let her choose, so she agreed to agree, but she knew it was unrealistic after thinking about it.

In this era, children’s marriages are decided by their parents, and there is no saying that they can choose for themselves. Another thing is that Li Chan and Li Zhi are introverted, staying at home all the year round and knowing people. On the contrary, young people are not as good as the experienced elderly at home. It's not bad to let the old lady call the shots.

So he agreed.

The old lady has three families in her hands, and the boys are all about 18 or 9 years old.

The first man is the eldest son in the family, and his economic conditions are not bad. The family has a hundred acres of fertile land. He lives by collecting rent. What is his personality? Li Cheng was the first to deny this family because Li Zhi Generally speaking, the eldest son has a big responsibility. He has to support his parents and take care of the younger siblings. There are three or five younger siblings behind that family. If Li Zhi married Ken, he would have a hard time. .

There are two remaining. One is a scholar and his family background is acceptable, but he has not yet passed the exam. The other is the only child in the family who works in the patrol camp, and the conditions are good. The family lives in a two-entry mansion. The location is much better than that of the Li family. There are also maids in the family who do rough work.

Li Cheng didn't know that his character was bad. He only said that this family is good, but he still needs to inquire about his character.

In fact, in addition to these few, there are many fancy people who have intentions, and they look richer, but most of them are for Gu's family, trying to gain ties, and there are ways to ask for help in the future.

The Sun people are so old and fine, how can they not see through the doors and ways here, so they all rejected them.

In her heart, grandchildren are the most important, and no one can hold back. The granddaughter of her Li family does not expect to climb up to someone else. The kind of safe and intelligent people is the best.

In fact, Li Cheng selfishly felt that Li Zhi was only fifteen years old and didn't need to be very anxious, so he told Sun why not take it easy.

The old lady smiled and said, "Women are different from men. It’s not too early at this age. If you say that you are good, you can go to Xiaoding and Dading, and it will be the coming year when you get married. Besides, your sisters will be one year older. It’s okay last year. This year, the Bai family will come to make up your mind. Your mother is crooked and unreliable. I can stop beating her once, and I can’t guarantee that she will be able to prevent her every time. After all, she gave birth to her. Hello, your sisters."

Li Cheng was helpless when he heard it, so he nodded and said that he would ask Yuan Bao to inquire about those two families tomorrow, and he would not stop if it was really suitable.

Today’s Sun's reprimanding Bai's, although the two sisters, Li Zhi and Li Chan, were distracted by the wife, but they knew a little bit, they were anxious.

Gu Celadon had to comfort him again.

Li Cheng and Gu Celadon returned to the yard, and Li Cheng asked Gu Celadon if he had any ideas.

Gu Qingci said: "The old lady's intention is that she wants to fix the elder sister's marriage before you go out."

Li Cheng was a little surprised, how could he be so anxious?

He didn't know that this was actually a long-standing custom.

It is said that when someone in the family is going to travel or go to work, if there is a happy event at home before going out, the person who goes out will be looked at with auspiciousness.

After all, Li Zhi was talking about kiss. The old lady knew that her grandson was going out. In order to seek auspiciousness, she would definitely finalize Li Zhi's marriage in the next few days.

Depending on what the old lady meant, I was afraid that the candidate would be chosen among the three.

Li Cheng denied the first one, but Gu Celadon felt that the second one didn’t fit well. He said he was a scholar, and it’s hard to say which step he could go to in the future. For the moment, even a talented talent has not been admitted, and he can’t. Do something else, even if it is capable. Another scholar is mostly noble, Li Zhi has never read a book seriously, although he can recognize some characters after being taught by Gu Celadon for some time, but that's it.

Gu Celadon said softly: "If the other party is a scholar who likes to add fragrance to the red sleeves, then the older sister may not be able to handle it."

Li Cheng laughed at her, raising his eyebrows and said: "An official has this insight, and he is far better than a husband."

Gu Qingci rushed over and hammered him a few times, who could not tell that this was making fun of her.

Unexpectedly, Li Cheng continued: "I don't know what kind of scholar is a husband in the eyes of the official. Is he in love with his wife Phoenix Yu Fei, or is it like a drum and a piano?"

Gu Celadon called Li Chengze so that his cheeks were flushed, and he kicked his feet a few times, covering his face with a handkerchief and refused to see anyone.

Talking about things well, finally told them to make a mess.

The next day, Li Chengze called Yuanbao Duanyan and the two to inquire about the three families chosen by the old lady.

Firstly, check whether the family environment and economic situation are fraudulent, and then explore the family’s prosperity from the neighbors around you. What’s going on in the usual way, and not just the man. The whole family needs to inquire about it. When buying pigs, you have to look at the pen, let alone marry. Marry such an important thing.

Yuan Bao and Duan Yan both inquired for three days, and then they told Li Cheng what they seemed to be asking.

In the end, Li Cheng made a comprehensive analysis and considered that the third household seemed to be the best.

But he didn't want to be the master for Li Zhi, so he asked Gu Celadon to call Li Zhi over, tell Li Zhi about the situation of these companies, and tell her about the pros and cons, and ask her which one to choose. , He went to talk to Sun's.

Li Zhi is really a docile and well-behaved person, and she is actually not stupid. When Gu Celadon told her about the three companies, she was shy at first and did not dare to raise her head. She only said that everything was up to her grandmother and brother, or Gu Celadon said more. After a few words, she said that this was her own life-long event, and there were no outsiders here, so just talk about any ideas.

In this way, Li Zhi blushed and pointed to the third house, and said like a mosquito: "Just this one."

Gu Qingci told Li Chengze the result, and Li Cheng turned around and went back to the old lady. The old lady said a few good words, her face turned into a dried orange peel, and said: This house is here. Your father will be back tomorrow. I'll go and pass a message to the matchmaker. If you agree, you can exchange Geng Tie and settle the matter."

As expected, the family had no objection. It should have been heard from the matchmaker that the Li family's son was going to travel far away, but he also understood, so he chose a day nearby and took the gift to the Li family's door.

The Li family set up two tables of good wine and food to banquet, and everyone was very happy. After the small meeting, they hung red lanterns on the beams of the room, which is a sign that the host family has a happy event.

The days flew quickly, and in a blink of an eye came the day when Li Chengze went out.

The baggage has been packed early in the morning, and it is easy to pack. Gu Celadon is traveling with him. The maid cannot take it, only Yuanbao will follow.

The day before departure, Li Cheng glanced at the calendar on the wall while tidying up his things, and suddenly asked Gu Celadon: "Guanguan, can you drink the medicine you were allowed to drink recently?"

Gu Qingci was sitting in front of her dressing table, changing the bead hairpin, and gesturing which one is more beautiful. Hearing the question, he first made a hum, and then raised his head and said, "I have eaten, and I have suffered a lot. ?"

The doctor said that Gu Celadon had a cold body. She took several medicines. A few days ago, Li Cheng went to prescribe another medicine and came back. Gu Celadon didn't ask much. He thought it was the same one in the past and took it for three days.

Li Cheng didn't tell Gu Celadon that the medicine was a contraceptive, so he nodded slightly.

It was also the next day that he remembered that he had no measures at night, fearing that Gu Celadon might be at risk of pregnancy, so he consulted the doctor and asked for a dose of contraceptives. The doctor said that this person who had been decocted for three days was harmless to the woman. There is also a kind of pill that Dunlun gave to the woman afterwards to take a pill with water, but the medicinal medicine would be stronger and might hurt the body.

There were no effective contraceptive methods in ancient times, and Li Cheng was not sure whether the prescribed traditional Chinese medicine had contraceptive effects. Gu Celadon must not let her be pregnant at this time if he wants to go out.

Li Cheng pinched his fingers and forgot about Gu Celadon's menstrual affairs. There was still half a month to work. The day of the **** was a safe period, so it shouldn't be a big problem?

He said that I hope so.

Going out is a good day for the Qintian Supervisor to choose. Everyone is waiting in front of the palace gate.

The four-horse carriages of the two princes lined up in the front. Standing guards accompanying personal protection were standing next to each other, followed by eight second-class two-horse carriages, and at the end stood several rows of tall horses wearing long horses. There are three hundred sword soldiers.

The right side is also a similar battle, but the team of Yan Guo.

The emperor stood on the high platform with his hands on his shoulders, and let people read the travel fu, and beat the drum for more than a hundred times before sending them out in line.

Afterwards, everyone loaded the carts one by one, and Li Cheng took Gu Celadon to one of the eight-two carriages in the middle.

He supported Gu Celadon and let her step on the footstool.

The carriage is very spacious and comfortable, more than enough for two people.

After sitting for less than a quarter of an hour, the convoy began to move slowly and move forward.

"Are you nervous?" Li Cheng asked Gu Celadon.

Gu Qingci shook his head and said, "This is the first time I have traveled far." After thinking about it, he added, "With Xiang Gong, I'm not afraid."

Li Cheng laughed in a low voice.
