After three or four days of nursing, Meng Shaoyuan's body was completely recovered.
At this time, the time for the Shanghai work conference was very close.
Commanders who had been directing guerrilla operations behind enemy lines in other places also came to Shanghai through different channels.
And in the middle, a small episode also happened:
Dai Li sent a telegram.
There was only this sentence in the telegram:
"Let's handle the matter with Cai quickly."
What happened with Cai?
Cai Xuefei?
Meng Shaoyuan couldn't laugh or cry, Mr. Dai, the emperor is not in a hurry, but the eunuch is, why are you always urging the marriage?
How much benefit did you receive from Cai Xuefei?
He really guessed correctly that Dai Li really took advantage of Cai Xuefei.
Cai Xuefei entrusted her friends in Wuhan to donate a large sum of money to the military commander, but she made no demands.
Silence is better than sound here.
It was immediately clear what kind of person Dai Li was.
Come on, is this woman determined to marry Meng Shaoyuan?
A soft-spoken man who eats people but a short-handed manipulator, this matchmaker Dai Li is determined to do.
Therefore, Meng Shaoyuan was "sold" like this.
There are even more extreme ones.
Dai Li actually personally appointed Zhou Weilong, the head of the military commander's Shanghai latent area, to supervise the matter.
Supervise!
People who didn't know it thought it was some major military reunification case.
Early this morning, Zhou Weilong came to Meng Shaoyuan's home early. As soon as he saw him, he dragged him into the car without saying a word.
"What are you doing? Kidnapping?" Meng Shaoyuan shouted: "My patrol room knows people!"
"I know you ghost!" Zhou Weilong lit a cigar in the car: "Mr. Dai has asked me to take you to Cai Xuefei's house to propose marriage."
"No, are you in such a hurry?"
"Urgent? Mr. Dai sent me some telegrams. Look, I've prepared all the gifts for you to propose marriage."
No.
Meng Shaoyuan's head hurt.
After all, this is a life-long event for you, and you don’t even ask for my opinion. Are you forcing it on me?
And you, Mr. Dai and Zhou Weilong, are so caring...
Um?
Meng Shaoyuan's eyes suddenly fell on Zhou Weilong's wrist: "District Chief Zhou, is that your new watch?"
"Ah, yes, what's wrong?"
"Don't move, let me take a look... Good guy, Omega's new gold watch is worth a lot of money... District Chief Zhou, have you been embezzled?"
"That's nonsense! Lord Luo Zhu sent this to me!"
"Oh, Luo Zhujun gave it to you... huh? District Chief Zhou, you didn't get it from me, right?"
Zhou Weilong smiled "hehe": "If I hadn't sold you, would Luo Zhujun have given me such an expensive watch? I guess that if this marriage happens, Cai Xuefei will not treat me badly..."
Meng Shaoyuan was dumbfounded: "District Chief Zhou, brother, I treat you very well, but you sold me out for a watch?"
"If it weren't for my family skills, I would have earned even the five million from the Japanese."
Holy shit!
…
Butler Qiu never expected that two top military leaders would come to visit his wife early in the morning.
Today, Cai Xuefei is wearing a red Chinese-style cotton-padded jacket, with black ankle-length ruffles underneath, and a pair of women's cloth shoes on her feet.
She looks like a completely different person from her old Western-style dress.
Even her hair, which had always been tied up in a bun in the past, was specially tied into a braid today.
Butler Qiu was dumbfounded.
Madam, what happened today?
What does this outfit mean?
To be honest, Meng Shaoyuan was very excited when he saw it.
In the past, Mrs. Rose was noble and generous.
But today, she looks like a beautiful, charming little oriental woman, with even more flavor.
Last night, Cai Xuefei received a call from Luo Zhujun announcing the good news:
"It's done, Lao Zhou will bring your Meng Shao back tomorrow..."
What is your Meng Shaoyuan?
After hanging up the phone, Cai Xuefei's face turned red.
How should we meet Meng Shaoyuan tomorrow?
It stands to reason that when proposing a marriage, the woman should not be in public, but now her parents are not around...
I can't care less about this.
However, since we are in China, we must abide by the customs here...
This outfit made me think about Cai Xuefei for most of the night.
"Madam..." Butler Qiu hasn't thought about it yet.
"Steward Qiu, why are you so rude?" Cai Xuefei scolded slightly: "District Chief Zhou, Director Meng, it's cold outside, please go sit inside."
"Okay, okay, then don't bother Madam."
Zhou Weilong was smiling, but Meng Shaoyuan didn't dare to make eye contact with Cai Xuefei.
On the contrary, Cai Xuefei was generous and brought the two of them into the living room and asked Butler Qiu to serve tea: "I wonder if District Chief Zhou and Director Meng are here today. Do you have any advice?"
Can you give me any advice?
I, Zhou Weilong, have been a spy for half my life, but this is my first time as a matchmaker.
Zhou Weilong thought for a long time and didn't know how to speak, so he just said it directly: "Mrs. Cai, please make it clear that I am here to be a matchmaker."
Isn't it too direct?
Cai Xuefei blushed: "Who are you playing matchmaker for?"
Women are troublesome, who else can they serve as matchmakers?
Now that Zhou Weilong had opened his mouth, he couldn't hold it back: "With Mr. Dai Li's life, I agree to the marriage between Meng Shaoyuan and Ms. Cai Xuefei."
ah?
Is there anyone in the world who proposes marriage like this?
Butler Qiu was confused. Was there something wrong with his ears?
Let Meng Shaoyuan, a rustic, marry his own wife?
Cai Xuefei's face turned red and she remained silent.
Although you have been prepared for it, how can others respond to you when you speak like this?
Zhou Weilong didn't know how to beat around the bush when he spoke: "Mrs. Cai, although Meng Shaoyuan is a talented person in the party and state and a strong general in the military, he is actually a spy and has a bad reputation. As for this person, he has all the shortcomings. In addition to being excellent in business, he has a very good reputation. not good……"
I rely on your ancestor Zhou Weilong!
Are you helping your young master Meng propose marriage, or are you trying to cause trouble?
Meng Shaoyuan's nose was almost crooked with anger. If he hadn't been rude, he would have stood up and left now.
Zhou Weilong thought to himself and said: "However, I admire this little bastard... No, I admire this boy. He married you. His ancestors have accumulated virtues and his face is bright. If you marry him, you will not insult the reputation of your Cai family." After all, this kid is not a morally corrupt person, and he is highly respected by Mr. Dai. But if you don't agree, I will take him and leave now."
The most ridiculous marriage proposal in history!
What about the seams?
Meng Shaoyuan wished he could find a crack in the ground and crawl in.
do not.
Butler Qiu kept saying in his heart, Madam, you must not agree.
If you marry this old man, your life will be ruined.
The reputation of the Cai family has been ruined.
Cai Xuefei imagined countless times what it would be like if Meng Shao proposed marriage to her.
But now, no matter how bold she was, she would never have thought of this scene.
Cai Xuefei looked at Zhou Weilong, then at Meng Shaoyuan, and then whispered:
"I do."
"I knew you were different...ah, what did you say?"
Cai Xuefei raised her voice fiercely: "I am willing to marry Meng Shaoyuan!"
"Boom!"
"Steward Qiu, Steward Qiu? Someone's here, Steward Qiu fainted, send him to the back."
…
"Steward Qiu, Steward Qiu."
Butler Qiu woke up leisurely, with tears streaming down his face: "Quickly, send a telegram to the master and his wife... Something happened, something big happened... The Cai family is unlucky, the Cai family is very unlucky!"
…
"Mrs. Cai, that would be great if you can agree." Seeing that the matchmaker was done, Zhou Weilong seemed to be overjoyed: "What are your conditions, how much do you want as a gift, and how do you prepare for the wedding? Just ask."
"I don't want a penny of betrothal gifts." At this point, Cai Xuefei simply said directly: "I am a remarried person. I am very happy to be able to accept Shaoyuan and not give up. How can I dare to ask for any extravagant betrothal gifts? Besides, I am here. Everything is included. As for whether Shao Yuan would like to live here or go to his place after the marriage, everything is subject to his instructions. As for what to do with the wedding? Shao Yuan has the final say."
Tsk tsk, where can I find such a good wife?
Zhou Weilong is very envious.
Meng Shaoyuan gritted his teeth and said: "The country is in danger and the nation has been humiliated. I can't bear it if I arrange my own marriage in a big way. In addition, I, Meng Shaoyuan, am a key target of the Japanese. It would be too arrogant to make such a big deal. What I mean is , just know it within a small area. The focus is on results, not rituals, I don’t know..."
"Okay." Cai Xuefei said without thinking, "Everything is up to you."
Meng Shaoyuan hurriedly added: "When the Anti-Japanese War is won, I will give you a grand wedding!"
"Yes." Cai Xuefei nodded, her eyes flashing with happiness.
"Husband...Madam..."
Butler Qiu came out tremblingly: "Luo... Mrs. Luo is here."
"Please quickly."
"yes……"
Butler Qiu glanced at Meng Shaoyuan weakly and almost fainted again.
…
"Done?"
"It's done!"
Luo Zhujun was overjoyed after receiving the good news: "Okay, okay, it's better to choose a day than to hit the sun. Taking advantage of the good weather today, District Chief Zhou will take them to get the marriage certificate."
ah?
Meng Shaoyuan was dumbfounded. Isn't this too urgent?
Luo Zhujun had other plans in mind. He had a lot of dreams this night, and he had to hold the marriage certificate in his hand. Then it would be considered a real success, right?
As for the wedding, there is no rush...
…
Meng Shaoyuan never dreamed that his marriage would be handled like this.
On the marriage certificate, there was a red border with an orange and white background. The right side said "Conclusion" and the left side said "Good Marriage". The top was the red word "Happiness" and the bottom was the four words "Hundred Years of Good Marriage".
It says:
"I am happy that today the ceremony has begun, and the good relationship has been established. The poems sing about Guan Ju, and the songs of songs are about Linzhi. The fifth generation of Ruiye is prosperous, and it is auspicious to open up the transformation of the two souths. With one heart and one mind, it is a good place to live and a home. Respect each other as guests, and we will always be together in the joy of fish and water. . Mutual assistance and sincerity, and the oath of a mandarin duck alliance. This is proof!"
Far left:
Engaged persons: Meng Shaoyuan, Cai Xuefei.
Introducer: Luo Zhujun.
Officiant: Zhou Changsheng (pseudonym of Zhou Weilong).
Certifier: Yao Muli (official of the Ministry of Civil Affairs).
Previously, Meng Shaoyuan was extremely envious of the romantic words on marriage certificates during the Republic of China.
Now, is it your turn?
Too hasty?
Say goodbye to being single in one day?
It's like a dream.
Cai Xuefei's face was flushed, she clutched her marriage certificate and refused to let go for a moment, and shouted softly:
"Husband."
ah? calls me?
Meng Shaoyuan couldn't adapt at all.
The marriage is over, but the wedding banquet has not been held yet, so they are not considered a real couple.
The most important point is, where are the many women around Meng Shaoyuan?
There’s a lot of fun to watch!
