Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Shixun and Cao Miao have been married for two and a half years, but they have gathered less and separated more, and there is a lack of in-depth communication. Of course, more importantly, he doesn't know why his heart is always on Xiao Luoli's Guan Si, but he is always not very interested in talking about feelings for his wife, who is tall and has long legs and wheat-colored skin, which may be more in line with the aesthetics of his previous life.
Sometimes I ask myself, maybe because I was a poor peasant of three generations in my previous life, and my roots were red and miao'er (although I was completely urbanized since I was a teenager), and when I first passed through this life, I was even more poor to the extreme, plus the education I received in my previous life, so I naturally have a sense of closeness to the bottom society. He often squatted on the ground to chat with Guan Hai and Bai Lao Wu, and he also felt that it was much easier and more down-to-earth than messing around in the crowd of soldiers. Therefore, although Xiao Luoli has a simple personality, plus illiteracy, and all kinds of shortcomings, in her opinion, it is easier to bear than the superiority of the main wife from the scholar's family - besides, Cao Miao only has the superiority of Miss Everyone, but she lacks the cultural literacy of Miss Everyone, and she has little common language with herself.
Maybe Cao Miao also noticed this because of women's natural sensitivity, so she naturally rejected Xiao Luoli, right?
However, since he has married her, unless there are some irresistible factors that suddenly fall from the sky (for example, the Cao family splits again, he must choose between Cao Cao and Cao Hong's brothers), after all, he will have to live with Cao Miao for the rest of his life. Originally, it was an outlier to meet Xiao Luo Li in this life, because of the order of the elders to marry Cao Miao, people are social animals, in the current social environment, it is meaningless to put aside marriage and talk about feelings. Shixun has no feelings for Cao Miao, but he hopes to gradually cultivate a relationship, so as to maintain the marriage, and also ensure that while trying to climb up, there will be no fire in his backyard and no hindrance.
Therefore, he also tried to understand and analyze Cao Miao's character. All in all, although this girl is completely different from Xiao Luo Liyan's thin ring fat in terms of appearance, her inner personality is similar. The same perseverance and toughness, simple thinking, action before thought, plus low cultural literacy......
Of course, there are differences, first of all, since Cao Miao was born in a scholarly family, she is very clear about her shortcomings, and as her husband's literary name becomes more and more famous, she realizes that she will not step up to enrich herself. It is difficult to restrain her husband and then maintain her marriage - she always felt that if she didn't get started first, but Xun couldn't bear to make Cai Yan a concubine, then the two would be a natural match. So since the essence of semi-literacy was exposed and was reprimanded by Shixun, she began to take the initiative to strengthen her cultural cultivation. Cao Miao is not stupid. The results of his studies said that Ling Shixun would not be happy, but it would not make her husband sad.
Secondly, when Cao Miao was still in the room, she was martial and light-hearted, because she felt that in the troubled times, only a man like her father could carry a knife and cross the battlefield. can really ensure the peace of the family. But after marrying Shixun, she suddenly saw another path: to gain fame in troubled times with literature. If she could choose independently, she would not be allowed to marry a weak scholar like Shixun that day, but since she had already married because of her parents' orders, she had to do her duty as a housewife and take care of the inner house for a scribe - the wife of the clerk is different from the wife of the general, and the swords, guns, swords and halberds that she liked in the past should be put down for the time being.
To say that the greatest virtue of the women of the scholar race in this era, of course, for men, is obedience. The Han Dynasty was different from later generations. Confucianism has not penetrated into all levels of society, in the vast countryside, male and female masters are often the pillars of the family, and the concept of male superiority and inferiority of women, men and women is only in the beginning, so the obedience of Guan Si is Xun, mainly because of love, Cao Miao's obedience is Xun. It is more out of concept and responsibility.
So Shi Xun feels that although his wife is simple, she is not stupid, although she is strong. But it's not overbearing.,It's a type that can be trained and worth training.。 In a sense, this is also an important premise for him to be willing to maintain this marriage that originally had no feelings at all.
This time, he ran to the kitchen to stir-fry, and suddenly heard Cao Miao shouting outside the door: "Husband, what are you doing?!" There seemed to be a sense of shame in the words. If he had just been married for a while, when he heard such a cry, and then thought of the maids with swords and swords beside his wife, he would definitely be frightened, but now he thinks that he has basically seen through Cao Miao's Xun, but he is not worried at all. At that moment, he slowly turned around, grabbed a chopstick and scrambled eggs and handed it to Cao Miao's mouth: "You taste it first." ”
Cao Miao frowned and ate, chewed a few times, and the brows instantly relaxed: "It's so raw and sweet, what is this?" Shi Xun laughed and said, "Can't you even eat eggs?" Cao Miao asked suspiciously, "How do eggs have this taste?" Husband, you ......" Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered his intention, so he frowned again: "Then make the egg into the taste of dragon liver, and it is ultimately a matter for people and women, husband, how can you do it yourself?" Don't you hear the ancient adage that 'a gentleman cooks far away'? ”
Shi Xun laughed secretly in his heart: Are you really here to teach me that I shouldn't go to the kitchen, or are you here to show off that you have finally finished reading "Mencius"? Pretending to put his face on the face, he asked rhetorically, "Why did Mencius say this?" Do you remember what the previous sentence was? Cao Miao really memorized a lot of books—although he often knew what it was, but he didn't know why—and instinctively replied: "Mencius said: 'A gentleman is like a beast, and he can't bear to see his death when he sees his life; Hearing its voice, I can't bear to eat its flesh. It is a gentleman who cooks far away. ’”
Shi Xun raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "It is precisely this reason, the gentleman who cooks far away is not willing to see the death of living things, not that he can't cook." Lao Ziyun: 'Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh. 'If it doesn't cook, Anzhi Xiaoxian is difficult to cook? If you don't cook small fresh, how can you get a good strategy for governing a big country? I do things in my own way, and you take things out of context and show off yourself! ”
Cao Miao's cheeks turned red when he said this, and he hurriedly bent his knees and said: "It's the concubine's fault, and the husband forgives me." ”
"I'll spare you for the time being," Shi Xun said as he handed over a large plate of scrambled eggs and chopsticks, "If you can eat outside the door when you love, Hugh will disturb her husband to try a good strategy for governing a great country." ”
When he was done, he turned around and no longer bothered his wife, just waved his hand and instructed the cooks and workers to continue to reorganize the ingredients, and then he fried a plate of sliced pork and a plate of fried duck breasts in a row, and the whole kitchen was filled with a very strange aroma for this era. The only pity is that in winter, except for a small amount of green onions, there are no fresh vegetables, which if there are cucumbers, carrots, garlic and other supplements, the taste of fried meat will be better.
That's right. Although there are no fresh vegetables and vegetables, there are still some dry goods (although there is no dried amaranth that Xu Tanfu doesn't know where to get it), Shi Xun was temporary, so he copied a plate of dried bacon with bamboo shoots. When he was done, he threw the vegetable shovel and triumphantly instructed the servants: "Send them all to me for supper—by the way, heat up some more poppy wine." ”
He lowered his high-rolled sleeves and walked out of the house with a spring breeze on his face - haha. You're ready to eat in no time. When I went out, I saw Cao Miao holding an empty plate in her hand, her mouth was full of oil stars, and she asked with a straight face: "Husband, you honestly tell your concubine, what is 'governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh', in fact, you just want to satisfy your appetite, right?!" ”
Ha. After eating up a plate of scrambled eggs, you've finally reacted, and you're not too stupid. Shi Xun couldn't help laughing, hugged his wife's waist, and said in a low voice: "When you are full, you can get your belly up - Mrs. Or?" Cao Miao's face turned red when she heard this, and she gently smacked him.
A few days passed. Yes Xun took the time to visit Dian Wei's mansion - I haven't seen him for many days, and I don't know if Dian Guofan's injuries have healed now?
The servants were introduced, entered the courtyard, and saw Sun Wen shaking his spirit, and played the "Five Fowl Play" there. It was only then that Xun remembered that although he learned this skill from Fan A and taught it to Dian Wei, he had been ordered to pacify Guanzhong. I haven't practiced it anymore - I'm really lazy, this is a skill to strengthen the body and prolong life, and it is better to practice more when I go home.
When Sun Wen saw Shixun coming, he stopped his fists and kicks. Shi Xun smiled: "Yunan is so leisurely. Sun Wen complained with a wry smile: "Where is leisurely, it is boring and killing - I am not a maid, not a little maid, although I take care of the captain." He didn't let him do the work of bringing water and food, and I couldn't do it by beating my legs and offering hospitality, so I was like a bird in a cage here! ”
Shi Xun smiled: "What are you anxious about, the sky will descend on the people of Si." Not only should they work their muscles and bones, but they should also suffer their minds, but if they are tempered by this now, they will become great weapons in the future—where is the kingdom now? ”
Sun Wen stretched out his hand and pointed: "It's in the study, I'll take you there." ”
So he entered the study one after the other, and Shixun raised his eyes and couldn't help but be startled. I saw that the dignified warrior Dian Wei had lost a lot of weight, and even the original beard was hanging down, looking so listless. But this was not the most surprising to him, the most surprising thing was that Dian Wei had a hairpin pen on his ear and a Jane in his hand, and he was frowning there and reading intently!
God, do you really plan to abandon martial arts and become literate? Let's wait for Fan A to diagnose you according to the appointment of half a year. So he said: "I haven't visited for many days, and the country will forgive my sins." But Dian Wei still maintained his original posture, and he didn't even hear it, and he didn't move.
Sun Wen smiled: "I think I'm asleep." He went up and gently hugged Dian Wei's shoulder twice. Dian Wei breathed a sigh of relief, casually threw down the brochure, and rubbed his eyes. It's Xun Xin who said okay, this is another one who sleeps with his eyes open, just like the legendary Zhang Fei - is it that all of you fierce generals have this problem!
Dian Wei turned his head a little dazedly, only then did he see Shi Xun, and quickly got up and saluted: "It turned out that Hongfu arrived, and he failed to greet him, forgive his sins." ”
At that moment, the two sat facing each other, and it was Xun who picked up the bamboo slip that Dian Wei threw on the ground and asked him, "What book is the country reading?" Dian Wei smiled bitterly: "This is the "Sima Law" copied by the lord's own hand, and I was asked to read it deeply, but ...... There are only armor soldiers in this chest, how can there be an article? It is also strange that Sima Sui Tho was a famous general for a while, and he did not talk about the skills of facing the enemy in the book, but only said something 'the rule of the first king, the way of the heavens, the appropriateness of setting up the land, the virtue of the lawsuit, and the rule of the right name...... ......'"
Shi Xun couldn't help but say, "'...... Correct the name of the country, the establishment of the country, the division of the lord, the princes are happy, the overseas to serve, the prison and the soldiers sleep, the rule of saintliness. 'The national domain, Qing will be brave, but there are only ten enemies and hundreds of ears, and Sima Sui Tho is the commander of ten thousand people, so he naturally wants to talk about the skills of the enemy ten thousand people in the book. Benevolence-oriented, righteousness-based, wisdom-based, strict-rated, and clear that this party is a general - the lord has deep hopes for the secretary. ”
