Chapter 812 Flaws
Caijiao brought Zheng a lot of gifts, cakes, snacks, silks, and exquisite utensils. She was full of everything and was dazzling.
"Cai'er, aren't you afraid of gossiping when you move so many things back to your parents' home?" Zheng was worried that Caijiao would offend a concubine of the Li family headed by Zhu Niang.
Caijiao pouted her red lips, shook her head, and said with a smile: "As long as I am willing to appreciate me, what if there is so much?"
Zheng sighed for a while. In this world, there is really the word "fate" and it is all fate. Hua Jiao and Rui Jiao are also her daughters. These two daughters are more than ten times smarter than Cai Jiao, a fool.
However, what Zheng never expected in her dream was that Caijiao, who had no hope at all, got Li Zhongyi's favor and was loved by Li Da Gong.
On the contrary, Hua Jiao and Rui Jiao, who are good at planning for the family, are left alone in the deep house. As they grow older, once they get older, they may not be able to make a name for themselves.
Objectively speaking, Zheng has always been a bit fond of Caijiao because she never knew how to fight for her own interests. She was such a stupid little lady.
"Mom, try this." Caijiao took out the ring cake that Li Zhongyi had invented from the dessert box, broke it apart and stuffed it into Zheng's mouth.
Zheng was surprised and chewed the ring cake in his mouth carefully. After careful savoring, it turned out to be a delicious food I had never tasted before. "Cai'er, what is this?"
"Mom, this is the ring cake that I have improved. It seems to be called a cucumber. It is twisted with glutinous flour and noodles into a ring shape, and put it in a frying pan. It is crispy and delicious, and it is my favorite snack." Caijiao's cherry mouth was stuffed with ring cakes, praising Li Zhongyi's knowledgeable knowledge. "I once mentioned that it seemed that this ring cake was found in the Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period in the Central Plains. It was called Hangu at that time, but it was still cold food. Oh, I can't remember it anymore."
Caijiao is a little confused, but Zheng knew it. Li Zhongyi was probably trying to make a fuss out of his thoughts to make Caijiao happy, right?
Although Zheng's guess was not completely correct, it also partially pointed out the truth. Li Zhongyi's purpose of creating a slut is mainly because he is greedy, and also wants his wives and concubines to enjoy the happiness.
At the moment when officials are used as their teachers, as Li Zhongyi's conquerors, the fresh things that the old Li family has tossed out are very likely to be imitated by the officials and citizens of the entire Goryeo Kingdom.
The entire Goryeo Kingdom devotes all its thoughts to eating, drinking and having fun. Hehe, he will only admire and admire the culture of the Celestial Kingdom. This is the so-called soft power!
After Li Zhongyi conquered the Goryeo Kingdom, the Li family army confiscated the land, money, houses and beautiful women of countless Goryeo officials and nobles in various names in a planned and step-by-step manner.
According to Li Zhongyi's existing plan, the Central Plains region will definitely have to curb land annexation in the future. However, land is the source of wealth and the mute son who cares for the elderly. This concept has long been deeply rooted in the bone marrow of the Han people, and the many generals and schoolmen of the Li family army are no exception.
Everything is planned, and if it is not planned, it will be abandoned!
Preparing for the future has always been Li Zhongyi's strength. He left behind a large area of fertile fertile land in Goryeo in advance, just to give land to Goryeo when he rewarded his heroes in the future.
This approach is equivalent to using the flesh and blood of the Goryeo people to nourish the powerful people of the Great Zhou Dynasty. There are all advantages but no disadvantages.
One way, it suppressed the land annexation of the Great Zhou country and eased class contradictions; the other way, it shifted the attention of the powerful and wealthy to the robbery of overseas colonies, laying a solid foundation for the future era of great maritime colonialism.
Others may not know it very well, but Li Zhongyi knew it well. The southern part of Vietnam not only has Chameng rice that is famous both at home and abroad, but also has many fertile fields suitable for agricultural planting, but also can be cooked three times a year.
During the peace period, the population continued to increase, but the land annexation of the powerful and wealthy people also increased day by day. There were many people and few lands, and they could not eat enough, which led to a vicious cycle of the dynasty cycle, which has always been the cancer of chaos in China in the agricultural era.
Li Zhongyi is a human being, not a god, and in the short term, he cannot change the land as the lifeblood. This deep-rooted idea is obviously that immigrating to the surrounding areas and developing fertile land has become the only choice.
Jin Zinan was hung outside by Cai Jiao. He wanted to slap Cai Jiao several times with confidence, scolding her for not even taking her own father seriously.
Unfortunately, he didn't dare to do this by borrowing Jin Zinan's ten thousand courage, so he had to kill his teeth and swallow it with blood.
Not only that, Jin Zinan didn't have long been psychologically constructed, so he wanted to break into the Xiquyuan where Zheng's family was located and take the initiative to find Caijiao.
There is no way, not to mention whether it can make a comeback, just to save your life, Jin Zinan needs to seek Li Zhongyi's understanding through Cai Jiao.
However, before Jin Zinan approached the gate, he was stopped outside the door by two maids wearing swords. "Please respect yourself. No one is allowed to enter until Mrs. Cai is summoned." The maid in the head did not take Jin Zinan seriously at all, and coldly refused him thousands of miles away.
Jin Zinan understood very well that the two maids in front of him were actually Li Zhongyi's men, but they were just sent to protect Cai Jiao.
As the saying goes, if you don’t look at monks and Buddha’s faces, not to mention that Jin Zinan can’t afford to offend maids with a sword. Even if he is a Chinese pastoral dog raised by Li Zhongyi, he still can’t afford to offend him and must be offered to him.
"Cai'er, you Aye, I'm bullied you so hard now." Jin Zinan looked mournful, deliberately whipped his throat and shouted outside the yard, obviously trying to pretend to be miserable in front of Cai Jiao in order to win sympathy.
"Cai'er, don't listen to him nonsense. He just took a beautiful concubine yesterday and his life is very comfortable." Zheng told Caijiao unhappily, asking her to ignore Jin Zinan's nonsense.
Caijiao said with a smile, "Mom, I always have to go in and out of his left ear, just pretending that I didn't hear it, and it's even more impossible to tell my master. My master once said that I like me, a carefree little piggy woman who eats and sleeps like me."
"Hey, Mom, have you learned my catchphrase?" Although Cai Jiao is not familiar with the world, it does not mean that she is not smart. It is just that she has "emotional intelligence" in some aspects, which is countless times lower than her two sisters.
Zheng accidentally let out a joke, but Cai Jiao pointed it out. She restrained her panic, forced her smile, and hurriedly covered her up: "The great officials and nobles in the capital are learning the style of your master. I have heard people say it, and I remember it if it is fresh. You know, and my memory has never been very good."
