The reason why I think so is because I think of a festival called Thanksgiving, when those believers who were forced to leave their homeland took the Mayflower and sailed across the ocean to another continent.
In this New World, the Puritans met the aboriginal people, and the aboriginal people were very curious and did not know who these people were. They secretly took away some things they thought were interesting, but they had absolutely no intention of having any serious conflicts with the exiles.
In fact, an indigenous man once left the New World with the adventurers and learned English. He also returned to his homeland with them and became a translator, so he had communication with the indigenous tribes.
The aboriginal tribe specially negotiated with those believers, specially gave the exiles some food, and taught them how to plant it, so that the exiles had a chance to survive. If the exiles could survive, there would be so-called
Thanksgiving Day.
Later, the development of Christians was very rapid, and gradually there were some problems that could not be ignored between the Puritans and the aborigines, because they had completely different religious beliefs and were not polite to pagans.
In addition, there are tribe members who admire the exiles who have higher technology and directly abandon their original religion and convert to the exiles' religion. Therefore, that person tells the tribe's secrets to the exiles.
When the tribe members learned about this incident, they were very angry because this behavior completely betrayed the entire tribe. In the end, the tribe members killed the tribe traitor, which aroused the anger of the exiles and intensified the conflict between the two.
In addition to this ideological collision, the New World and the relationship between the oceans prevented people from other continents from reaching the New World for a long time.
It can be said that the New World was closed for a long time, which caused the evolution of the entire continent to be different from other continents, especially the changes in viruses were not as good as other continents.
After the successful arrival of the Mayflower, more people went to the New World. In addition to bringing new ideas, they also exposed the indigenous people of the New World who had never experienced smallpox to encounter a virus with a high fatality rate, and even caused the death of a person in the New World.
Great empires fell.
It's so tragic! They were obviously the original owners of the New World, but they were eventually slaughtered again and again by the people who had been rescued by their ancestors. Those descendants who were rescued actually had the scalps of the aborigines exchanged for money. In the end, the aboriginal population dropped sharply and became a minority.
The nation was also moved from its fertile homeland to the most remote and barren places.
Ling Xiao thought for a moment and decided to leave a small warning to the natives of the American continent! Don't count the money for others after being sold. This is too tragic.
She saved a few people and then left. She hoped that their descendants would be more courageous and not become Mr. Dongguo and let her descendants become unlucky people.
In this way, Ling Xiao didn't disturb too many people, but she did take the opportunity to observe the aboriginal empire. You know that the people in this empire like gold, and there are many good things.
She didn't touch the things that belonged to the owner. Taking them without telling them was a thief, so she took the raw materials and had them processed into a complete set of gold jewelry, which had a completely different style. Even though it was a little strange, it still had the quality of beauty.
She traveled around the entire New World and saw many hard-working and kind-hearted aboriginal people. Because she did not want to reveal her identity, she rarely approached them unless there were some accidents.
I found a lot of good things along the way, especially some plant seeds. After some disinfection, I received them in special packages, and I planned to find an opportunity to bring them back.
After leaving the New World, he went to other continents and obtained some valuable wood, such as rosewood, rosewood, etc., and even wood from other places.
Ling Xiao finally visited all the continents in the world, and also went to places where the Vikings lived. She felt that those people were a bit like berserkers. It could be said that after seeing the whole world, she returned to that small town.
county seat.
She was away for two years, and when she came back with a motorcade, she happened to see the seventh old lady taking the original owner and Wei San to enjoy the flowers.
When she learned that Ling Xiao was back, the original owner was extremely happy. Although she had the Song family mother and son, and the seventh old lady by her side, she still missed Ling Xiao in her heart.
Ling Xiao saw the original owner who was excited and found that she had grown up a lot, while Wei San became more beautiful after not seeing her for two years, and his relationship with the original owner was very good.
Ling Xiao was a little relieved to see that the original owner was living well, as if he was in water. It was okay! The original owner was living well now, and it was still a very important decision to go out for a walk by himself.
You must know that Ling Xiao knew that although she was a woman, because she lived in a different era and had fundamentally different views, her ideas were not very suitable for the original owner, who had to continue living.
If the original owner is too similar to Ling Xiao, it will only make the original owner's life very painful. The farthest distance between people is that even if the two people are very close physically, their thoughts are completely different, so it will
A lot of diaphragms are produced.
Ling Xiao had to leave, and after confirming that the education of the seventh old lady was good, he entrusted the original owner to the seventh old lady. After all, the three views between the two were somewhat similar.
Although she has a woman's heart, her body has the appearance of a man. In this era where men and women are not close to each other, even if there is a relationship between ancestors and grandchildren, they cannot always educate the original owner.
Ling Xiao will never dig holes for the original owner under the banner of anti-feudalism. A girl's reputation should be well protected. Even in modern times, rumors of love can still kill people, let alone in ancient times.
It seems to be really good. The original owner has the subtle beauty of a boudoir woman in ancient times, but also has some modern free and easy attitude, which makes her stand out from the crowd.
Following Ling Xiao, she discovered that Song had begun to change in the past two years. She was still very gentle, but a little more comfortable, especially since she had let go of her own feet during this period.
Ling Xiao's actions made the custom of foot binding much less common in the entire dynasty, because everyone suddenly discovered that the so-called small feet were not beautiful, but deformed. This kind of behavior was despised.
After the trend changed, people in big cities began to oppose foot binding first, and small places gradually got the news, and the standards of beauty changed again.
After discovering that foot binding was not good, some people tried to let go of their former feet and found that even if they would not completely recover, they would at least be much better than before.
After the first one, there were second and third ones, and thousands of women began to let go of their feet. In the past two years, the custom of binding feet has been completely curbed.
Many women with bound feet began to let go of their feet, and Mrs. Song also let go. She felt that she could walk further. Although it was still not as good as natural feet, it was much better than the three-inch golden lotus.
Among them, the women who have never had their feet bound have a lot to gain, and there are also some women who are not very young and have just started to have their feet bound. They have suffered a lot less. The older they are, the more affected they are. Some people are used to having their feet bound, but they have to
Let go again.
Foot-binding has deceived many female compatriots. Whether they are older or younger, many female compatriots have become victims of foot-binding, but in the end they find that their foot-binding behavior is not good. This change is a kind of change for them.
Subversion, but have to accept reality.
Hey! She feels sorry for those female compatriots who were forced to have their feet bound, but she does not regret doing it. If it is not stopped, more female compatriots will suffer. If there is a war, they will not be able to escape.
The little feet must be stopped.
Ling Xiao got a lot of good things this time. She did not sell them directly to retail stores, but packaged them and sold them directly. After that, she got a lot of money in her hands. What will she do when she has money? She needs to strengthen education again.
.
Ling Xiao thought for a moment, should he make a name for himself? Of course, it was definitely not the reputation of alchemy. He didn't want to become a master in the eyes of a certain emperor or a certain prince, and then get people to the capital with a decree.
This is completely bringing trouble to the original owner. I remember that Tang Bohu was very unlucky to be involved in the examination fraud case, and then he was noticed by a certain prince because of his talent, which resulted in him achieving nothing.
The princes of this dynasty had troubles. As an emperor, he didn't know what was going on. From time to time he had no children and had to adopt adopted children from other kings.
In addition, the King of Yan actually took over the throne and the original emperor, his nephew, disappeared. It was because of King Yan's behavior as an example that some princes became ambitious.
The matter between the emperor and the prince is an internal issue of the Zhu family, and as a person involved in it, it is most likely to become cannon fodder. She is not afraid of it, but the life of the original owner cannot be affected.
She decided that it was better to be careful and not to be too famous. She could just do her best on some things, and let other things go by chance, which would leave some sparks and bring about some good changes.
Ling Xiao thought about it for a while, and thought of a mountain that was not too small near the county town, so she decided to build a Taoist temple at this place. Of course, this Taoist temple belonged to her personally.
Ling Xiao planned to live in a Taoist temple under the banner of Qingxiu in the future, but she adopted several children. She did not intend for them to become spies, but to enable them to achieve success.
Of course, the number is not too many, because if there are too many, she is afraid that others will think too much. These children are all picked up, and some children are disabled. Even so, she does not give up on them. She will check the children's homework every once in a while.
.
After these years of getting along, the Seventh Old Lady fell in love with the original owner. Originally, she was a little worried that the original owner belonged to Bigfoot instead of Three-inch Golden Lotus, and might be humiliated when she met relatives and friends.
But what I didn't expect was that foot binding would become a thing of the past a few years ago. Now a real beauty can see that she has felt that the original owner is very suitable for her all these years, and she wants to follow her grandson and marry the original owner.
Ling Xiao also inspected the child and found that his knowledge was pretty good. This young man with a smiling face was the kind of person who saw things clearly, so he did not plan to take any further imperial examinations.
Ling Xiao doesn't agree with this very much. These days, no one with a good reputation will be bullied. Even if he doesn't plan to go to the capital to take the Chunwei Examination for Gongshi or Jinshi, he still has to take the exam for Juren, and at the end of the day, he has to be a scholar.
If there are no scholars, I am afraid that I will not have much say in my seventh house. "You don't want your wife to attend clan gatherings and be criticized by those scholars and ladies, right?"
After hearing Ling Xiao's words, Wei Ba was stunned. He had never thought about these things. He had always liked painting, so naturally he didn't care about this issue.
After Ling Xiao came out, he had an idea and decided to take the exam, because the Wei family really needed more people to support him, and he really should have further ideas.
The seventh old lady was very happy to know that Wei Ba had always had great ideas, but today he was singled out and his whole person changed. Only then did the seventh old lady know that this Taoist priest also studied Confucian classics very well.
Wei Ba had a discussion with Ling Xiao, and then he found out about this person's ability. He had known that many Taoist priests had abilities before, but now after meeting Ling Xiao, he found that he was indeed very powerful.
"I know you don't like this officialdom, and I don't like it either, because there are too many people who, for personal gain, completely forget their original intentions and do very bad things after becoming officials.
So if everyone doesn't care, you will find that one day you can't even speak out. You don't have to like it, but you can't not care about anything, otherwise you will find out after something happens that you have been calculated into it.
"Ling Xiao said.
The reason why she said this was because she found that it was not that Wei Ba couldn't understand, but that he didn't like it. If he was the kind of person who couldn't understand at all, Ling Xiao would not discuss these issues with him at all.
In fact, Wei Ba is really the kind of person who has ideas, but he is not willing to wade into muddy waters. But living in this world, you always have to face ups and downs, so it is better to have a certain degree of sensitivity.
Furthermore, she could feel that Wei Ba could not become a loyal minister of the emperor, because he could see clearly that a man who could clearly become a wise emperor had been busy with his own private affairs over the years, and had not even been in court for a few days.
The emperor has been strengthening his imperial power, but he trusts the most nepotistic and treacherous ministers. For example, the father and son of the powerful ministers who fell a few years ago did not respond to the normal requests made by the ministers, allowing the treacherous ministers to dominate the court.
The two of them knew in their hearts that the emperor probably thought that whether he was a loyal minister or a traitorous minister, he needed to be trained by the emperor, so he could naturally sit back and watch the fight between tigers and tigers.
When he saw that one party's power was weakening, the emperor would increase the bargaining chips for that party, so that the two factions would continue to fight endlessly. In the end, it would be the emperor who would benefit, and both sides would need the emperor to be the referee.
Many people on both sides will die, and there is no right and wrong at all. This kind of emperor is really annoying. Speaking of which, the emperor is indeed smart.
It's a pity that his cleverness is used to calculate others, and he doesn't care about the life or death of others. This kind of emperor does not make Ling Xiao feel that he has no need to be loyal.
