The road from Africa to Europe

Chapter 352 Preparation
For example, the eldest son said that all the people cultivated by the Tao family can read and write. This surprised King Yan. There are relatively few people who can do this. You must know that studying costs a lot of money, and one All of them are good citizens, so they can flap their wings and leave. Why did this lady of the Tao family do this?

Later, when he asked his eldest son, He Huan said: "I once asked the Tao family why they did this. Saburo Tao said: In order for them to have a good future, everyone must learn some skills, and literacy is only the last step." Basic requirements."

After hearing this, the King of Yan admired the Tao lady very much. In his opinion, literacy is indeed very important.Soldiers in the same situation, whether they can read or not will be different in the subsequent development. This is a situation that King Yan only discovered recently.

Recalling that the future eldest daughter-in-law was also trained by the Tao family aunt, Yan Wang has more expectations for this eldest daughter-in-law. You must know that as the head of Yan Wangfu, you must have a broad mind. If the eldest daughter-in-law can do this One point, the future can be expected.

He had smart people under his command, and soon discovered that the prince attached great importance to the future eldest daughter-in-law, so some people had plans in their hearts, and some people didn't like the princess very much because of Deng's dismissal.

Not many people know what Deng has done, and it is impossible for the palace to express her problems on purpose. This has caused some people to feel the sorrow of the rabbit and the fox just because of their status, and feel that the unassumed princess wants to grab the territory. I was very afraid of Su Mo.

After all, the most lucrative piece of cake in Yandi has long been divided up by those rich and powerful, so if newcomers want to eat the cake, they will naturally have to snatch it from the original family.Some people don't want the big cake in their hands to be robbed, and they look at the princess like a traitor, and they are more disgusted with the future concubine.

Of course, there are also people who don’t care much about the arrival of the princess. Why do they think so? It’s because these people see it very clearly. Years of wars have led to a relatively high death rate of combatants in Yandi. From officials to soldiers, all personnel will be replaced. high speed.

Anyway, if people have the ability, they will naturally stand out. Just do their own things well. As long as they have the ability, they can naturally ensure the prosperity of the family. Most of them keep watching with a cold eye.

In addition to the above two attitudes, there is another kind of people who want to marry under this situation. Of course, this kind of family usually belongs to the kind of family that is not very powerful, but they have some energy and connections in Yandi for many years.

They wanted to go further, and naturally wanted to establish a good relationship with the prince early, but now the princess's brother is too young, and it is impossible to have any more contacts, so Ling Xiao, who is the female official next to the princess, entered their family. in the eyes.

They didn't know the original background of the Tao family, they only thought it was a family that was born under the princess, but because of Deng's incident, they all knew that this female official has a lot of energy, so she should be loved by the princess .If he were to marry Ling Xiao's brothers, it would be tantamount to a relationship with the future imperial concubine.

They found an opportunity to mention it, unexpectedly, Saburo and Goro both said that in the future their wives will let their elder sister take care of them, and they must live with their elder sister in the future, and their wives must be filial to their elder sister. Row.

Saburo and the others insisted that the eldest sister is like a mother. This kind of statement is a bit irritating in the hearts of some people. Although they want to take advantage of the relationship between Ling Xiao and Ji Mou, it doesn't mean that they look at the Tao family's eldest lady and still control her. With the Tao family.

You must know that the Tao family seems to belong to the newcomers in Yandi and does not have much influence, but they have people under their command, and there are still many capable people. This is wealth. If it can be used by their family, it will definitely make them go further. .

In particular, there are no in-laws in the Tao family. If their daughters marry, they can be the masters of the family. As elders, they can let the Tao family son contribute to their family. This is a profitable business.

But now the two brothers of the Tao family really respect their elder sister in their hearts, and even ask their wives to be filial to this eldest sister who has never been married. This is another matter.

According to their understanding, this lady of the Tao family is quite powerful. After going to see the new house, she directly confronted the young lady of the palace. This shows that this person is definitely not easy to mess with. You must know that she is very close to the future concubine. A small report will be made if one is not good.

They want to get the benefits of the Tao family, but they don't want the Tao family to obey their elder sister's words. They also want to take advantage of the relationship between the eldest lady of the Tao family and the concubine. It is best to give them all the benefits.

Originally they thought that the eldest lady of the Tao family would enter the palace with the concubine, even if the daughter had to respect the eldest sister as required, it would not be so difficult, because the eldest sister is mainly in the palace, after a long time, the pillow wind will It will work, Saburo and the others will lean towards the Yue family, and the Yue family will go to the palace to find the Tao family lady if they have something to do. What a good idea, they will take advantage of all the benefits.

But the problem now is that they obviously underestimated the control power that the Tao family lady had over the two brothers. The son-in-law is a cow and a horse for his family.

This is not at all the same as their original idea. Naturally, they don't like it very much. Some people think it's okay to try it, anyway, it's a girl.After all, if a man gets married, there will still be some changes.

Coincidentally, Ling Xiao happened to know their plan, and she felt a little funny, but she didn't say anything. As for those women who were regarded as marriage partners, Ling Xiao generally maintained a sympathetic attitude.

She won't complain about those women, because they can't help themselves. According to the unofficial history she has read before, it shows that Yan Song, the power minister at the end, used to listen to his words when he was in power, and many people wanted to get rid of him. There is Xu Jie.

Xu Jie thought about how to get rid of Yan's father and son, and formulated several conditions, one of which was to reassure the other party. After much deliberation, he asked his granddaughter to be the concubine of the Yan family's grandson, and poisoned the granddaughter who came back after the Yan family fell. .

Of course, whether this unofficial history is true or not is still unknown, but it is true that many women in ancient times got married, and their husband's family and their mother's family fought. As a woman, it was a dilemma, and I didn't know what to do?
Although Ling Xiao sympathizes with those women who are regarded as marriage pawns, she will never find Saburo Goro the kind of family who wants to take advantage of her relationship with Ji Mou as Yue's family, because this will make the family members live very unhappy.

Although she knows that as a daughter, she should be filial to her parents, but she absolutely disapproves of the behavior of dragging everything from her husband's family into her mother's family, making Saburo Goro work hard, but her wife is only thinking about pulling her mother's family.

In case Sanlang Goro of the Tao family made any mistake, the woman would most likely follow the family's order and abandon the child to remarry. It is said that they should bless them to be happy again, but their children were bad luck. In the short years, my father and mother were not around.

Under such circumstances, Ling Xiao naturally disagrees with women from this kind of family marrying, because she has found out similar things several times. Those girls have been brainwashed, and they will only think about their natal family. horrible.

I believe that Saburo Goro doesn't have this kind of love brain, so they asked for the matchmaker's words, and they had to ask their own elder sister to agree.After knowing it, Ling Xiao was very happy, because there was no such kind of guy with a love head around him.

If there is a brother who only thinks about his wife after having a wife, Ling Xiao will definitely separate the family and let the couple live a small life on their own. They can live as they want, but don't think about more benefits.

The reason why Ling Xiao feels that this kind of family can never be in a relationship is because marrying the daughter of this kind of family is tantamount to being sucked blood, and it is the kind that will never be let go in a lifetime.

In addition, Ling Xiao also knew that there was a question of seniority in ancient times. Once married, the elders on the side of their wives' clan were also elders. It is possible that disrespecting elders will ruin your reputation.

For this reason, she specially told them to let them make their own decisions, and Ling Xiao would not ask them to be obedient. They are all adults who can make their own choices, but they must have judgment.

What I didn't expect is that Saburo Goro has no intention of getting married now. They think about how to become a powerful person, and they don't think about getting married at all.After all, they have too many things to do now, and they don't have time to get married.

Ling Xiao didn't say anything when he found out, let the two of them get used to it first, since they are both adults anyway, some problems can be dealt with slowly, if there is really a fate, they will naturally get together.

The other children who have been raised by Ling Xiao are also grown up now, and she also knew that some people with ulterior motives had their own ideas along the way, so she told them: Each of them can stand on their own, and each of them is given A settlement fee.

Although this amount of money cannot make them rich all at once, it is definitely enough for them to support themselves.Some people wanted to leave after knowing the news, because there were many people who wanted to win them over when they arrived in Yandi.

Even the people from the Princess Guards came to win him over, and they offered a lot of good conditions. After thinking about it, he felt very good, so he planned to make a good living, and Ling Xiao pretended not to know anything about this kind of person.

After all, they wanted to live a good life of their own, and had long since thought of staying in the country as before.What they saw along the way gave them a lot of ideas and motivation to climb up.

The reason why they didn't stay was because they felt that Ling Xiao cared more about his brothers and didn't care much about them, so they felt uncomfortable from the bottom of their hearts, and now there are people who choose to marry them to win them over, so they are naturally very happy.

There are some people who don’t want to leave by themselves, and want to pull others to go together, but some people don’t want to leave, and they feel very funny when they hear the so-called reasons given by those who want to leave.

You must know that the Tao family has spent a lot of energy and money raising them over the years. To put it bluntly, they owe the Tao family, not the Tao family, and you must remember this clearly.

As for the Tao family lady who cares more about her brother, isn't this nonsense?People's brothers are not partial, but are they partial to outsiders?In fact, isn't there just a few people here who plan to leave?White-eyed wolf!

Ling Xiao didn't care about their departure. The reason why she took these children before was because they were young and had no possibility of self-survival. Now that they have grown up, she didn't treat them badly.It's better for someone to leave, she's done raising them anyway.

The other villagers who came with the Tao family were unwilling to leave. They found their place one after another and began to prepare for a good life in Yandi. Ling Xiao was very busy every day, so he didn't have the energy to take care of the actions of leaving the Tao family.

While she was busy, someone had already married a wife. Of course, in the eyes of others, it was more like a door-to-door son-in-law. After Ling Xiao knew about it, she didn't care much at all, because the other party didn't notify the Tao family.

After some operations, she finally finished the furniture of the new house and arranged the dowry of the eighteen mothers, waiting for the auspicious day to come.By the way, let the people around Shiba Niang get ready to enter the Palace of Yan Wang.

After getting to know each other a while ago, everyone also knows a lot about Yan Wangfu, which is very important to them. It is something they have to do well if they know themselves and the enemy.

In addition, Ling Xiao knows that the people of King Yan can basically accept Shibaniang. After all, this is the first person to break the curse of the son of the world, but he is a little wary of those who follow Shibaniang. After all, some of them feel that their rights may be violated. dispersion.

In case the crown prince comes to power, there must be some newcomers. The power of the crown prince must be suppressed. The Tao family is the one they want to exclude. After much deliberation, they simply want to expel the Tao family members.

This is because they knew that the Tao family had already bought the house in Yandi, which made them feel that the Tao family was very scheming, and they wanted to crowd out the Tao family.Fortunately, Ling Xiao planned to marry Shibaniang before she left, so she didn't send her out immediately.

Ling Xiao has long discovered that there are divisions of forces and struggles in Yandi. The reason why there is no major problem is that thanks to foreign enemies, he can't take care of internal strife for a while. Ling Xiao is a little helpless, and he can't imagine how these people like such infighting?

Send your family out?Ling Xiao didn't say anything, and she didn't plan to tell Shibaniang that she and Shizi were going to be married soon, and she still didn't want them to receive the news at the beginning of their marriage. She hoped that the marriage would be happy.

After arriving in Yandi, she was very busy, and she didn't remember one thing until she was about to get married, so she reminded Shibaniang that Shibaniang had to figure out how to deal with the kabuki that came with her after a while.

Ji suddenly thought about it, she couldn't ignore them, but she couldn't bring kabuki into the palace, because this is not allowed in Yanwang's mansion, but Shiba Niang is also very busy during this time, she just wants to deal with them I'll have to wait until later.

She thought about it for a while and decided to call those kabuki over first, and wanted to ask what she would do in the future?In addition, they don't need to spend anything now, they can obtain their own body, and it will become invalid after the expiration date.

Under such circumstances, the little ladies have various ideas, some want to be free, and some feel that they will continue to work in this line of work. After hearing their personal wishes, Yi Mu didn't immediately agree.

It is better to let them stay in the Tao Mansion first to see how to live in the future. After some ideological struggle, most of them will express their thoughts. Some of them do not want to do this business, but think about how to do it A woman from a good family.

In fact, being able to sing and dance is a skill in later generations, but in ancient society, if you used it to eat, it was not a very serious behavior, and it was a low-level status.

After Ling Xiao knew about it, she asked them to consider their own situation. In the process, she hoped that these little ladies would learn more other skills so that they could earn money in the future instead of being attached to a man all the time.

She is also specially prepared to go through this period of training, so that they can learn a lot. Of course, some people decide to leave with the high-ranking customers. Ling Xiao has no position to object. This is her voluntary, but I still hope she will think about it more .

Just before Shi Ba Niang got married, Ling Xiao called those who wanted to be good at Kabuki to see the conditions she set for concluding a marriage contract: people from families who are not very top-notch, but also have some ability.

The girls were very happy, and Ling Xiao said: From now on, singing and dancing is just to show off in front of the family members, just learn more about the skills to settle down, they must work hard, so most of them start to practice new skills.

Time passed quickly, and on the day of their marriage, Shiba Niang was a little nervous and almost couldn't sleep at night, but Ling Xiao went out and ordered her directly, and she fell asleep.

On the second day of getting married, Ling Xiao didn't have much experience. Fortunately, there were special mothers who came with them.

Ling Xiao did not go there. He stayed in Tao Mansion and prepared to return in three days. In addition, Angle also stayed in Tao Mansion. In fact, Tao Mansion is not all Tao Mansion, and there is a part that is specially separated and belongs to An Geer's property. .

No matter how good Yan Wang's Mansion is, it's not An Ge'er's house. It's not easy to live as an oil bottle. Maybe it's because of Shibaniang's reason that I dare not say it in person, but I say it in private. Ling Xiao feels that children still live It's better in your own home.
