"Boss, I want to go to Fenggao." Wu Xi immediately raised his hand and said, "The East County side is not interesting. Although there is a lot to eat, it is not as good as Fenggao. The most interesting place in Yanzhou is Mount Tai.
When the county is high, it will be prosperous there."
Wu Xi had been to Fenggao back then, and the prosperity there left a deep impression on Wu Xi. So when he was wandering around Dongjun, Wu Xi suggested that Li Jue and the others also go to Fenggao.
"Fenggao, it's a bit far over there." Li Jue smacked his lips twice. He didn't mind very much, but if he went to Fenggao, it would be a bit close to Qingzhou. If he met the eldest princess, he would lose face.
That's not good. After all, he is the brains of the Xiliang Cavalry and needs to be considered.
"Boss, you're back after a long time, why don't you go shopping in the country?" Wu Xi continued to encourage, and Li Jue didn't struggle for long. After all, his soldiers wanted to go. After hesitating for a few times, he decided to let these people go.
.
So the original three-day holiday was changed to eight days. A group of people first played in Dongjun for a few days, and then rode horses to Fenggao, planning to spend a few days in Fenggao.
"Fenggao is really prosperous. There are all kinds of weird things in the East Market and the West Market." Li Jue held the dragon beard cake with a completely wrong painting style in his mouth with a sigh of relief. They were in Xiliang
At that time, when had I ever seen such a prosperous situation?
"Yes, when I was in Liangzhou, I saw basically nothing but wind and sand." Guo Bang looked around, bought some snacks and poured them into his mouth, "But when I came back this time, there was actually something strange over there in Liangzhou.
It’s changed a lot.”
"The people in Liangzhou were actually picking flowers on a large scale. I really laughed." Fan Chou said happily. In fact, when they came back, the people in Liangzhou were picking cotton. However, Fan Chou didn't know cotton, so he thought it was cotton.
Picking flowers.
"Never mind them, just pick flowers, let's just do our thing." Li Jue said without caring, "It feels like everything is really cheap here."
Fan Chou and Guo Si nodded after hearing this. Indeed, the prices of various daily necessities were so cheap that the three brothers were a little dizzy. When they were in Chang'an, if they were sold so cheaply, the three brothers could have mortgaged the Weiyang Palace. Unfortunately,
It was so expensive back then that I couldn't even afford rice.
"Hey, isn't this Zhang Er?" Wu Xi looked around, picking and choosing, preparing to find something to eat, and then he saw Zhang Yong carrying a basket and shopping.
"Zhang Er!" Wu Xi greeted from a distance. Zhang Yong didn't hear it. However, the other Zhang Er next to him turned to look at Wu Xi. He found that he didn't recognize him, and then turned around naturally. Wu Xi was not embarrassed and ran straight away.
He went over and grabbed Zhang Yong, "Zhang Er, you don't recognize me anymore."
Zhang Yong turned his head and was stunned at first, then he was delighted, "Isn't this Brother Wu? I haven't seen you for many years. Come on, I'll treat you to a restaurant."
"What's the point of inviting me? Just wait, we are a group." Wu Xi said with a smile, and then greeted other comrades, and soon a group of people surrounded Zhang Yong, followed by Li Jue and the others.
Also came over.
After all, he was a centurion from Xiliang seven or eight years ago, and people like Li Jue can still recognize him.
"You ran away when you wanted to. You are really not a thing. You actually changed your name." During lunch, Li Jue held a wine bowl and said to Zhang Yong, "This name is good, much better than the previous one."
Zhang Yong chuckled. Of course, Zhang Yong was not allowed to treat the guests at the end of the lunch. After all, even if Zhang Yong had some spare money, he could not afford to treat five hundred people to dinner. This was not a small amount of living expenses.
"After I got married, my wife changed it for me. I thought it was pretty good, so I used this name." Zhang Yong laughed, "Boss, you are still over there in Congling."
"It's better over there than here. You want to come, but your quality is a bit weak now. If you come, you won't be able to become a centurion, and you will have to start as a team leader." Li Juelang said with a smile.
"Forget it. My wife just gave birth to a son for me and is currently teaching my eldest son to study. If you don't want to go, you won't go." Zhang Yong shook his head. Although he really wanted to fight with others, his family was the most important thing and he had spent so much money that year.
It took so much time and hard work to get a wife, but I can't go now.
Speaking of Zhang Yong's group, this is the case where Chen Xi asked Cai Yan to help organize a blind date and then succeeded. The reason why Zhang Yong was unable to walk when he met his wife was because his wife was not the right match for him these days.
A village woman, but a serious young lady.
As Chen Xi said back then, concubines from aristocratic families are naturally attracted to these soldiers, and major aristocratic families also want to use these soldiers who have become powerful to strengthen their influence on themselves and potential middle- and low-level officers. In addition,
Those who came up were all concubines of the family, and it was a favor without any expense, so both parties were very satisfied and achieved a lot of success.
Chen Xi had considered this issue back then, and the development of the matter was just as Chen Xi estimated. The concubines who married into the aristocratic families were not sure who was responsible and who was responsible at first, but as time went by, after giving birth to children,
My thoughts changed.
Why should I go back to my parents’ home and be told what to do? Isn’t it good for me to command my husband? Even if my husband is not as good as the family behind me, he has no problem raising me.
The strength of practicing Qi to become a gang, at that time, was more than one in ten thousand, and even in later generations, any man who is one in ten thousand, if nothing else, it is really no problem to support his wife, plus
Those who married were all middle- and low-level generals, and their backgrounds were very attractive to these people. Even if there were some minor frictions, they would get along well after a few years.
Therefore, after giving birth to children, the minds of these concubines are almost gone. Anyway, they are just a concubine, and their status in their parents' family is the same. It is better to go less often. Whatever they want at home, their husbands will do their best.
solution.
Of course, these are not the most important. The most important point is the influence that the mother exerts on her children. Theoretically speaking, as long as the mother does not die prematurely, it is impossible for the mother to be literate and the children to be illiterate.
The time we spend together will be much longer than that of our father, and education sometimes involves words and deeds.
In addition, mothers themselves will habitually teach the skills and knowledge they can master to their children. In the late Han Dynasty, it was not the era when women were virtuous if they did not have talent. During this period, women from aristocratic families were more or less virtuous.
For those who are literate, it is at most a matter of whether they learn well or not when they were studying. Therefore, after these people have children, they will instinctively teach.
This is also Chen Xi's need, because the number of teachers is really not enough, relying on mother's teaching is also an option. If the mother is literate, the children will be literate, and then they can be brought up from generation to generation. As for the number of teachers in a short time, Chen Xi
I have given up hope.
The major aristocratic families now have no extra manpower to help. In the past, this was an excuse, but now, Chen Xi believes it, because the major aristocratic families themselves are also cultivating the people and hope that the people can read and write. After all, reading and writing is a kind of
Very important skill.
So take your time, Chen Xi is not in a hurry. After several generations, the literacy rate will rise. Once the literacy rate rises and education is popularized successfully, specialization will be promoted. When the quantity is large enough, the quality will naturally
Stack it up.
Zhang Yong naturally doesn't know these things. All he knows is that his wife is still very good. She can read and write, and she can also write some things for her. She also teaches his eldest son to read at home. What, how did you get the book? His wife
I wrote it down by myself.
By the way, in order to teach his son, he also borrowed some books from the library in Taishan and asked his wife to copy them. During the process, he also copied them in dog crawling characters. After a few years, he became literate.
So Zhang Yong is still very proud. Maybe he can be ranked in the top five in terms of cultural level here. He knows at least 500 common words!
"Forget it, just continue to stay here. When the times are bad, come and seek refuge with us. We don't have anything else. We still have a lot of land, five hundred acres, which is stable." Guo Bang patted him.
Chest said, "Our brothers don't do that kind of thing."
"I know this. I heard that you divide the land into farming and animal husbandry, right?" Zhang Yong recalled what his wife read to him in some public newspapers, and then asked curiously, "Listen over there.
You say there's a lack of water, right?"
"The lack of water is not serious, it's high. The place we live in is on the mountain." Fan Chou explained to Zhang Yong with a smile, then raised the bowl and touched it with Zhang Yong. There was a sense of alienation at the wine table that had not been seen in several years.
It healed quickly.
"Well, I'd better stay in the Central Plains." Zhang Yong sighed, but still refused. Ten years ago, he would never have imagined that he would refuse the Xiliang Iron Cavalry like this. He was also a fierce warrior who used a knife to cut people, to be precise.
It is said that those who can sneak into the Xiliang Iron Cavalry Headquarters are all talented people. As a result, Wenrou Township is the Tomb of Heroes.
"Then there's nothing we can do." Li Jue stopped recruiting. After seeing the recruitment twice, if people don't want to come, forget it. You can't force yourself to be a soldier. Why are their Xiliang cavalry so strong? To put it bluntly, isn't it because of them?
Is it because these soldiers have almost no other skills besides killing enemies? What is specialization? This is specialization.
"By the way, are you here on business?" Zhang Yong asked casually.
"I'm just on business, I'm just here to play. I'm going to Shenxiang to ascend the inner Qi and leave the body." Li Jue rolled his eyes and said, then pointed at Wu Xi, "But this guy said that he was good at Feng Gao and wanted to come to play, so
We just dropped by, and after we finished eating and drinking, we left."
"Oh, that's it. I thought you were here for business." Zhang Yong nodded, thinking it would be better not to talk about Liu Xie's matter. After all, this kind of matter should be handled by professionals. Don't interfere yourself. Don't
