I am a nobleman in Spring and Autumn

Chapter 66 The old Zhao family's heir

There are so many delicacies in Laozhi's house, and the dishes are served in different ways every day.

Zhao Bolu found that Zhiyao would participate in cooking every time, and later joined in to experience the joy of cooking, and followed suit as if he had found his life goal.

Zhao Wuxie, who came along with him, was a little confused, wondering whether Zhiyao was too different or what the situation was. Seeing that Zhao Bolu happily joined the research on food, he couldn't help wondering if all the successors looked like that.

Zhao Wuji had his own goals in life when he was five or six years old, hoping to attract the appreciation of the family elders by relying on his hard work and studious, and then get Zhao Yang's attention.

As the head of the family, Zhao Yang was too busy, and when the civil war broke out, he had no time to pay attention to the younger generation of the family, so he didn't see Zhao Wuji's efforts at all.

A retainer of the Zhao family named Gubu Ziqing first discovered the extremely hardworking Zhao Wuxie, especially when he saw that Zhao Wuxie was not the kind of person who only worked hard but had no results, so he asked Zhao Yang to remind him.

Gubu Ziqing purely hoped that many juniors of the Zhao family could produce talents, and most likely did not want to interfere with the struggle for the successor of the Zhao family.

It’s hard to say how the big nobles in other countries are now, but the juniors of Jin’s high-ranking families are hedonistic. Most of the juniors are not studious. up.

The good and bad of people are all based on comparison. Too many juniors of the Zhao family, including Zhao Bolu, are unbearable, which will definitely bring out the benefits of Zhao Wujiu's diligence and studious. The younger generation seemed even more unbearable.

If Zhao Wuxie can make any achievements, he will definitely get more attention.

Now, seeing Zhiyao and Zhao Bolu meeting each other, Zhao Wuji was really surprised.

Is there "face" in the Spring and Autumn Period?Of course there is.It's just not a staple food, and because the fermentation method has not been researched, there are no steamed buns or steamed buns anyway.

There are also different types of noodles, usually made of wheat flour, which was very difficult to make in the Spring and Autumn Period, just because the milling disc was not invented, so making flour was very laborious and labor-intensive.

Zhi's family has a big business, and there will certainly be a few servants who specialize in grinding flour.

Before Zhiyao invented more advanced rice pounding tools, Lao Zhi's family had thousands of servants responsible for pounding rice every day.

Mopan has not yet been "invented" by Zhiyao.It's not that he forgot, it's just that he didn't realize the importance of the grinding disc for the time being.

Zhiyao and Zhao Bolu made noodles not to make steamed buns or steamed buns. Look at the prepared meat paste and some vegetables that have been prepared next to them. Obviously they are to be made into skins, and they are making dumplings.

The other two guests who came to Zhishi, that is, Liang Yingfu and Yurang, have already set off for the state of Ju.

Zhao Yang asked Zhao Bolu and Zhao Wuxie to come to Zhiyao definitely not to learn cooking, but to promote each other under normal circumstances, to learn how to run a family, or to go out hunting to exercise and increase the experience of leading soldiers.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that Zhao Yang knew that Zhao Bolu was useless, and wanted Zhao Bolu to slow down Zhiyao's learning progress.

It seems to have some effect?At least Zhiyao didn't study much after Zhao Bolu and others came to visit, just studied food in different ways.

Before that, no matter how busy Zhiyao was, she would still learn by herself. Whenever she had the opportunity, she would ask Confucius or discuss knowledge with her disciples and grandchildren.

After getting along with Confucius, Zhiyao found that Confucius was not a difficult person to get along with. Confucius was only serious when it came to "rituals", and he was quite peaceful the rest of the time.

In fact, Confucius is not a particularly hypocritical figure. On the contrary, he is a man who lives and learns. He often gives lectures to his disciples, and occasionally discusses some knowledge other than "rituals" together. It is a kind of mutual understanding. Promoted.

Zhiyao also discovered that, for example, Confucius and a group of disciples tended to be more like a group to keep warm, because they are basically down-and-out people, and they always need someone to help each other to get more and bigger opportunities.

Now, Zhao Bolu was learning how to make dumplings, and after he learned it quickly, he said in a nonchalant manner: "All the 'Confucians' don't like Confucius, and this is also the reason for being expelled."

As mentioned earlier, "Confucianism" was not created by Confucius, he was just a member of "Confucianism".

People in later generations will think that "Confucianism" was created by Confucius without special investigation. This kind of cognition is actually wrong.

Of course, without Confucius, no one can say whether "Confucianism" would have gained power.

Which vassal state currently has the most "Confucianism"?In fact, it is the country of Lu.This is because of the position factor that Lu State held with Zhou Tianzi at the beginning of the enfeoffment, as if the ancestor of Qin State was Zhou Tianzi's groom and had to study how to raise horses, but later it was purely because of the social atmosphere.

That is to say, Zhiyao knew that "Confucianism" was not invented by Confucius, otherwise she would definitely faint when she heard Zhao Bolu say that.

"Kong Qiu was innocent and punished, because his disciples went to listen to him." Zhao Bolu seemed to really dislike Confucius, but he was telling the truth.

Zhiyao also had nothing to say, and said, "Most of Mao's disciples belong to Master Kong."

You can basically see the difference in attitude by looking at the two people's names for Confucius.

It is also true that many of Shaozhengmao's students became disciples of Confucius, but it is not known whether what Shaozhengmao said before his death was true.

What did you say?The general idea is: I was killed by you, my disciples and grandchildren will be hidden in your system, and everything you advocate will be misinterpreted and subverted in the future.

Zhao Bolu immediately said: "This is the true meaning of Kong Qiu's violent death."

Yes, Confucius not only killed Shaozheng Mao, but also hung him up to dry for three days and three nights.This kind of behavior is a tyrannical behavior no matter what era it is in, but Confucius really did it. You can imagine how heavy the resentment is in my heart.

Zhiyao was fishing for dumplings, as if she saw Zhao Wuxie suddenly, she greeted with a smile: "You don't have to work, you can't eat. And bring the plate, you can taste it!"

Is it because Zhao Wuxie doesn't help?Two people who are destined to have extraordinary status in the future are playing by themselves, he is just a concubine, he is not qualified to play together, and he is just standing by the side with depression in his heart.

Zhao Bolu glanced at Zhao Wuxie who was hesitating, and said, "Come and come."

Zhao Wuxie, who was allowed, of course stepped forward.His purpose in coming to Lao Zhi's house was to help out, and it was rare to be able to have a chat with Zhao Bolu. There were many questions he wanted to ask Zhiyao, but he didn't find a chance to ask him that.

Who would have thought that Zhao Wuxie, who looks humble at present, would be so awesome in the future?It can only be said that hard work can really change fate!

The water for cooking dumplings is made from bones. The older the soup, the better the taste. Check to see if the dumplings are going to dry out.

The modern south generally chooses to eat soup dumplings, while the north tends to eat dry dumplings.

Zhiyao is making dipping water herself again, limited by the lack of materials in the current era, there are only a few materials that can be used for dipping.

Currently there is vinegar, but soy sauce is temporarily absent.

Vinegar was produced in the Xia Dynasty; soy sauce was produced in the Song Dynasty.

At present, food is usually served with sauce, depending on what sauce you eat.

Zhiyao made several kinds of dipping water, and found that vinegar mixed with sauce and green onions were the most suitable dipping water.

He thought it was alright, but Zhao Bolu and Zhao Wuxie found it delicious.

"When did the Shanxi people develop their jealousy? Anyway, I don't think Jin people are deliberately pursuing jealousy?" Zhiyao was a little confused.
