Rebirth of marriage

That day, as soon as Gu Xiao notified the army of the new decree, General Li Dayong went to find him.

Li Dayong is in his thirties this year, and he is the only one left in the family. Now that there is no war in Yuyouguan, seeing that life is getting better and better, he wants to marry a wife and start a family.

But he was a rough old man. In the past, he was either practicing in the military camp or on missions. He had no time to think about personal matters. Gu Xiao's decree came just in time.

Li Dayong bared his teeth, "My lord, please take this opportunity to ask your subordinates to find a wife."

He had followed King Xiao for many years and knew that since he issued this decree, he would take action.

Gu Xiao raised his eyes and looked at him, "You don't mind that the woman is a widow?"

Although he didn't feel that a widowed woman was any different from an ordinary woman, he had to speak clearly to avoid Li Dayong regretting and harming the woman in the future.

Li Dayong didn't care much, "It would be great if a rough guy like me can have a woman. How dare I be picky? As long as the other party's character is okay, then there will be no issues for me."

After a pause, he smirked and said, "It would be better if I could be more considerate and gentle."

Gu Xiao then asked the military scribe to write down Li Dayong's situation, character and requirements in a book.

With Li Dayong in front, many soldiers who wanted to get married but didn't mind that the woman was a widow came to register.

Gu Xiao ordered Mo Li to verify that if someone who was already married in his hometown wanted to pretend to be a bachelor and marry again, he would be severely punished.

He has always been strict in running the army, so no one dares to pretend to be one, but even so, there are still more than 100 places registered in the book.

Xie Jiu felt that if the daughter of the newspaper buying woman voluntarily remarried, the list in Gu Xiao's hand would be a good choice.

Women's marriage is like reincarnation. They have all experienced widowhood before, and remarrying is a new reincarnation. They need to be more cautious. Those on the list know everything about them and have no major problems with their character. Moreover, they are all under Gu Xiao's control.

After the official media arrived, Grandma Ning came forward to receive them.

When it comes to marriage matters, no one knows better than the official media about which family has an unmarried girl and which family has a widowed woman.

As soon as Granny Ning mentioned the woman's daughter, several matchmakers poured out their information.

The woman's name is Miao Dahua, and her daughter's name is Xiliu. They are both good-looking and have a gentle personality. They are less than [-] years old.

The late husband was a scholar. Less than a year after Xiliu married him, he died in a cold. Xiliu has now been a widow for two years.

Her parents-in-law were neither good nor bad. They had four sons. One of them died and there were three more, so they simply split up the family. Now Xiliu and her daughter make a living by doing some show work.

Her parents' family had a better life, but they had brothers and sisters-in-law, and their parents didn't dare to provide too much. Therefore, Xiliu and her daughter were starving to death, but they also didn't have enough to eat.

A slight headache or something else can bring disaster to their mother and daughter.

As soon as Miao Dahua, her own mother, heard about the new decree, she had the idea of ​​letting her daughter remarry. She asked the little beggar in front of everyone to test the world's views on remarriage.

The scholar's words made her more determined, so she bought a newspaper and went to her daughter's house to convince her.

But Xiliu now needs the permission of her parents-in-law if she wants to remarry, which requires the matchmaker's sharp tongue.

Xie Jiu and Nanny Ning checked the quota in private and felt that Li Dayong was quite good. Although he was a bit older, he had an official position in the army and his character was tested by Gu Xiao.

Xiliu once worked as a maid in a wealthy family, and her experience was much better than that of ordinary women, so she would not wrong Li Dayong.

Gu Xiao then ordered the secret guard to inform Li Dayong of Xiliu's situation. If he is willing, the matchmaker can continue with the follow-up affairs.

Of course, the two may not necessarily succeed in the end, but it is a minimum to ask each other's wishes first.

He is not a bad person and is willing to live a good life. This is Li Dayong's request.

Xiliu's conditions far exceeded his expectations. Of course he agreed. He even asked the matchmaker to take the lead and he was willing to accept Xiliu's daughter.

After receiving his affirmative reply, the most famous matchmaker Wang in Yuyouguan grinned her red lips and twisted her thick waist into Xiliu's house.

It was expected that things did not go so smoothly, as Xiliu's parents-in-law did not agree.

Matchmaker Wang did not give up. She could see that His Highness Prince Xiao was determined to implement the decree.

Once she completes the matter between Xiliu and Li Dayong, more and more people will come to her later, and she can make a lot of money.

It was inconvenient for Xie Jiu to come forward on these matters, so Gu Xiao left full authority to Ning Ning.

Xie Jiu went to Xie Baoshan's newly opened workshop.

It would take a lot of time to build a temporary factory, so Xie Jiu asked Xie Baoshan to buy the big house next to Jiuxiao Pavilion, and after making some adjustments, it became a workshop.

Lou Qi left a dozen people here last time for Xie Jiu to dispatch.

In order to make things easier, Xie Jiu asked Su Mengjiao and her tabloid team to live in Jiuxiao Pavilion, together with Mr. Lu who stayed here from time to time.

There are many people living in the Jiuxiao Pavilion house now, so it is very safe for the workshop to be opened here.

"Dad, do you have enough money on hand?" Xie Jiu asked after walking around the workshop.

The workshop had invested a lot in the early stages, and she didn't know how much money her father had left.

Xie Baoshan smiled and said, "It's enough to run a workshop, but I'll put aside the matter of buying a house. Dad and Chang Gong will temporarily borrow your Jiuxiao Pavilion."

Xie Jiu felt sad. Her father was good at making a living and was considered one of the richest people in his hometown. However, he had lost all his family property for her and now he couldn't even afford his own house.

She took out a stack of banknotes from her sleeve and said, "Dad, please keep these. Don't buy the house yet. I feel more at ease if you live in Jiuxiao Pavilion. After I come back from the capital, my daughter will accompany you to make a good selection."

She and Gu Xiao went to the capital, and she didn't feel comfortable living alone with her father and brother.

"How can dad ask for your money?" Xie Baoshan refused, "Father is not poor, he has money to spend."

Xie Jiu put the money in his hand and said, "My daughter's is yours too. If you don't accept it, my daughter will feel guilty."

Xie Baoshan couldn't bear to see her red eyes, so he had to accept the bank note. After all, the money he would make in the future would also belong to their brother and sister.

Her father was better at doing business than her, and Gu Xiao greeted the government office, so Xie Jiu stopped talking and asked about Xie Changgong's enrollment before returning to the exile area.

This was her first time back since she was injured. The old lady asked worriedly, "Has the injury been healed?"

In fact, Lin Shu already knew about Xie Jiu's situation. When she saw it, she still couldn't help but want to ask. Knowing that she had blocked the arrow for Gu Xiao, the old lady was both distressed and grateful.

Xie Jiu smiled, "It's okay now."

"I heard that someone named Cao did it again. How can the Cao family not be punished for all their evil deeds?" the old lady said angrily, "I want to write a letter to the old man and ask him to cause trouble for Cao Gou. I was also afraid of being intercepted, and I felt very aggrieved."

"Don't write this letter. Mr. Lao suddenly returned to Beijing. There are many people watching him. If people know about your relationship with A Xiao, it will be detrimental to Mr. Lao." Xie Jiu comforted her, "Don't worry, the Cao family's Retribution will come sooner or later."

The old lady sighed, feeling very weak.

Xie Jiu thought for a while and told her that Gu Xiao said he wanted to marry her and had already started making some arrangements.

The old lady cried with joy after hearing this, "Really?"

"Ah."

The old lady wiped her tears and said, "Now you really have to call me grandma. Your grandpa will be very happy if he knows."

The day has finally come. If she could see Gu Xiao getting married and having children, and the family living well, she would die in peace.
