Not only were the people from the Liang family shocked by these words, but everyone else present also revealed an indescribable look.
Many people could not accept the fact that Liang Youxiao was going to marry such a blonde-haired, blue-eyed woman.
But what was even more difficult for them to accept was that the clothes this woman wore were so revealing that even the women in brothels didn't dare to dress like that.
What was Liang Youxiao thinking when his wife's exposed skin was seen by so many men?
The emperor was also very surprised. He didn't expect that Liang Youxiao would bring back a wife after his trip to the sea.
Judging from the Liang family’s reactions, he knew they definitely didn’t know about it before.
Although the emperor felt it was a bit strange, he didn't say much and just said, "Very good."
The emperor then had a chat with the envoy, with Liang Youxiao acting as an interpreter.
After the chat, it was time to show off the babies and animals.
Liang Youxiao first presented the treasure he brought back this time.
Boxes of gold, gems of various colors, thousand-year-old red corals taller than a person, and various pearls.
There are also a lot of jades, including imperial green jade, red jade, purple jade, yellow jade, and tri-color jade.
In addition to jade jewelry, he also brought back a lot of amber and crystal, all of which were of top quality.
Not only the men present were staring with wide eyes, but the women as well.
When they saw so many gems, jades, crystals, etc., they all had one thought: how beautiful, how much they wanted them.
I have to say, going overseas is really profitable.
It also made many families and individuals want to have a piece of the pie.
Liang Youxiao was able to return from his voyage safely, and each time he brought back more treasures than the last time, so could they also allow their family members to go out to sea with him?
In addition to being able to see the world, it would be even better if I could also bring back so many good things.
In addition to treasures, Liang Youxiao brought back a lot of animals from Africa and Europe this time, and presented them all to the emperor.
The emperor was amazed at these animals he had never seen before, and he walked down to take a closer look.
After he finished reading, court officials and their families also came forward to take a look.
By the time we had seen enough, the party was over.
At this time, Qing Luo was taking the two kids to see the giraffes, and Liang Youxiao came over with Daisy.
"The two little ones love giraffes so much. When they give birth to babies, you can ask the emperor for one and take it back for them to raise."
We only brought a pair of giraffes this time, so we can’t give them to the two little ones first.
The two little ones' eyes lit up, but Shi Qingluo didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "We'll talk about it when the time comes."
None of the family had experience in caring for and raising giraffes.
And in her subconscious, if she wants to see giraffes, she has to go to the zoo.
If I had to feed two children every day, there might not be the novelty and excitement that I have now.
Speaking of this, she suddenly had an idea and planned to talk to her husband about it later.
The two little ones shouted to Liang Youxiao obediently, "Hello, Uncle Xiao!"
Liang Youxiao looked at the two little ones with envy, "Hello, Ranran, hello, Jiajia!"
After saying that, he reached out and picked up the two little ones. They were so sweet and soft that he suddenly wanted to get married quickly and raise two babies like them.
Then he introduced Daisy to Shi Qingluo.
It was no secret that Liang Youxiao was taught foreign languages by Shi Qingluo, at least the emperor and others knew it.
Anyway, the old immortal master was taking the blame, so Shi Qingluo didn't pretend to be incompetent and started chatting with Daisy.
The two quickly became familiar with each other, and when they were about to part, Daisy still looked reluctant to leave.
Before leaving, Shi Qingluo asked Liang Youxiao curiously, "You want to marry Daisy? Will your family agree?"
She did not miss the indescribable look on the face of Prince Liang and the others just now.
Liang Youxiao shrugged indifferently, "So what if you don't agree? I'm definitely going to marry her anyway."
He and Daisy had already become a real couple, and he liked her generosity and brightness.
The key is that Daisy is not like the women in Daliang. Many of her thoughts are in sync with his. Not only do they have a common language, but they can also do things together.
Moreover, Daisy's family is the top aristocracy in Great Britain, which will be of great help to him in traveling between the two countries in the future.
Daisy also loves sailing and is always ready to accompany him on the sea, which is something that women from Daliang cannot do.
He paused and said, "If I marry a girl from a noble family in the capital, I will be harming her."
"After all, I will go to sea every year in the future, but my wife will probably stay in the capital. What's the difference between this and being a widow?"
Shi Qingluo agreed after hearing this. The women in Daliang were still relatively conservative, and there were probably very few who were willing to accompany Liang Youxiao on frequent sea trips.
Daisy is indeed more suitable for Liang Youxiao.
She smiled and said, "Then I wish you success. Please treat us to your wedding wine when the time comes."
Liang Youxiao curled his lips, "No problem."
"By the way, the supplies you gave me last time were exchanged for a lot of things. I'll send them to you tomorrow."
This time he was even more successful than two years ago and returned with a great success.
Apart from what was presented to the emperor and some that were exchanged for Shi Qingluo, the rest were his.
He opened stores specializing in selling overseas products in Beijing, Jiangnan and Beicheng, and his business was booming.
He believes that the jewelry, amber, crystal, etc. he brought back this time will definitely be snapped up once they are put in the store.
"Okay!" Although Shi Qingluo had more money than she could spend, she didn't mind having too many things. What's more, she had asked Liang Youxiao to help her exchange those things with her supplies.
After the banquet, Liang Youxiao and officials from the Ministry of Rites sent the foreign envoys to specially arranged accommodation, and then took Daisy back to the Liang family.
Daisy was accompanied by three servants, one man and two women, all of whom were holding gifts for the Liang family.
After Mr. Liang and others returned home, they went directly to the old lady's yard.
The other branches of the Liang family couldn't help but run over to join in the fun, firstly to watch the show, and secondly to see what good things Liang Youxiao would bring home.
After all, just now in the palace, when they saw Liang Youxiao presenting so many treasures, they were not only stunned but also felt jealous.
They had not been optimistic about going overseas before, but who would have thought that Liang Youxiao would do so well and bring back so many good things.
The emperor’s reward must belong to Liang Youxiao only. They just want to share some of the good things he brought back.
The Liang family sat and waited until it was almost time for dinner, when Liang Youxiao brought Daisy in.
He first introduced Daisy and her background to his family, and then introduced Daisy to his family.
Daisy lifted her skirt and greeted the Liang family, "Hello!"
She and Liang Youxiao learned a lot of Daliang dialect, so as long as it was not too difficult, they could speak and understand it.
Seeing this inappropriate way of greeting, the people in the Liang family didn't know what to say.
The old man was still very strong-willed. He forced a smile and said politely, "Please sit down!"
