Chapter 6409 Site
Wang Ke's expression was a little ugly. He originally planned to dig some people from his wife's house. After all, he had no family. His father used to beg for food. Later, he heard that he was following Guo Si as a bandit. When he met Dong Zhuo, he was able to recruit him. He had no idea of his ancestral home at all. At most, he knew that he was born in Liangzhou.
This is why Wang Liang didn't even know where the ancestral tomb was. However, this man was free and easy. He stood up with military merits and did not want to go back to Liangzhou to find his family and worship his ancestral tombs. He just mingled in Mount Tai. But every year when he saw others visiting the graves every year, he was a little embarrassed that he had no roots.
However, I got used to it because I was embarrassed and embarrassed. It was also a way of worshiping my comrades who had died in battle before. Anyway, when others visited the grave, he would follow him to the grave and tell his brothers below how he was doing recently. It was also a way of thinking, so that they could feel at ease in the underworld.
"In other words, we can only rely on us?" Wang Ke turned his finger back and pointed at him with a stupid expression. There was no way. Even if he was a stupid person, he knew that just by their family, he could not transfer the fiefdom at all. This kind of thing could not be operated by a few people at all. Even if it was a fiefdom that was gradually developed, there would not be only these people at the beginning.
Even the straw troupe team needs at least thirty or fifty people to operate such a large area. Their family, including their disabled father, son who just went to elementary school, and two daughters who didn't go to school, had a total of six people. What a joke!
"No, we have other support besides the Zheng family in Xingyang. Chang'an issued official documents to you so that you can prepare in advance." Zheng Ling shook her head and said, "It is impossible to rely on the Zheng family in Xingyang. Of course, there are some guys who may not be clear about their brains or do not have sons who will choose to rely on their parents' home, but most of them will choose to rely on themselves."
As long as there are no major ups and downs in recent years, the concubines married by major families have basically turned around and knew who they will rely on in the future.
In fact, looking at Li Huan's situation at that time, you can tell that the concubine who designed Li Huan actually died with Li Huan. Maybe at the beginning he had a task attitude, but later he really gave birth to a son for Li Huan and realized that Li Huan could indeed support himself and live a good life for himself and his son, his thoughts had changed, at most it was too late.
The concubines of aristocratic families such as Zheng Ling are now following the Han family's former elite centurions, ranging from five to six years to ten years. Normally, their children have given birth to two or three.
And as long as these most elite centuries are still alive and have not retired, they have basically reached the 11th and 2th level titles. Even those who have retired from the 19th level titles, such as Sun Er and Jiang Guang, are actually the mainstream titles at the 8th to 10th level titles.
Just as Zheng Ling thought before, when she got married in the early years, she felt that her parents' family conditions were much better than her husband's family, but as time passed, the upper limit of her family was there. As long as it was not a legitimate family, it would sooner or later be surpassed by these young people who stood at the forefront of the times.
The problem is that even with Chen Xi's face, major families would not be able to marry the daughter of the original family to the elite centuries. Those who can marry are all concubines from the branch.
Even a family like Deng would not marry a concubine's daughter who had the marquis. They accepted Chen Xi's advice, rather than being ill and going crazy.
Therefore, when these young centuries passed the tenth level of title, they actually caught up with his wife's family. His wife may have some memory bonus, but as their title continues to increase, this thing will be wiped out sooner or later.
Perhaps the foundation is not as good as my wife's parents' family. After all, people have a backer of the Lehou family, and maybe they are not as good as the other party in education. Who made the Lehou family pay attention to this these days? But in terms of their own strength and assets, young people who have reached this level are actually not inferior to these branches.
Although only three generations can raise a nobleman, one can be killed with three punches.
Of course, they cannot catch up with temperament, but compared with those actual assets and development potential, these young people with 12 and 3rd level titles are even better than their wives' parents' homes.
After all, if you take advantage of the Lehou family, you will naturally be harvested from your own limit, which is also a kind of exchange of interests.
Therefore, as long as the centurions who got married in those days survived to this day, they could basically guarantee that the family assets and development potential of these people would never be inferior to their wife's parents' home, and their lives would definitely be better than when they were in their parents' home.
After all, those centuries back then were all but the same kind of family was not hungry when they were fed by one person. Now they have only one couple, two or three children, and are 12 or 3 levels of title.
Compared with their wife's parents' home, it's almost the same level, but their wife's parents' home really wants to support a family. It goes without saying which one is richer.
When Jiang Guang's wife went to her parents' home, she brought various things as gifts in big bags. In fact, it can already explain many problems. In fact, from the surface, Jiang Guang's wife's house was larger, and there were servants, maids, carriages and horses, etc., which looked much better than Jiang Guang's family.
The problem is that these are actually used to show the family's face, and the foundation left by the ancestors, if you really want to say that the resources and power that belong to Jiang Guang's wife, as well as the things that can be actually controlled, may not be able to surpass Jiang Guang.
The real difference between the two parties is actually more about the ability to effectively monetize information, connections, and resources, rather than how big the difference is in the real capital they have.
To describe it in the 21st century, Jiang Guang and his wife's family have 100 million assets, and they can earn 18 million yuan a year, and even Jiang Guang can earn more, but Jiang Guang has 100 million yuan in cash, while her wife's family has various physical industries, land, and shops worth hundreds of millions of yuan. However, because there are so many bank loans, the actual assets are similar to Jiang Guang. Excluding all kinds of messy expenses every year, the actual accounts may not be as good as Jiang Guang.
But in terms of the feeling of welcoming and seeing off and the feeling on the table, Jiang Guang's wife's family seems to be much better than Jiang Guang's family. But for Jiang Guang's wife, who knows both families well, her family is just that. It looks prosperous and not as good as her own family. After all, her family relies on the protection of the main pulse and needs to be handed over to the main pulse.
If you even think about it carefully, the land and shops of my parents' home really belong to my parents' home, and there are actually not many things that do not belong to the Chen family in Luoyang.
From a certain perspective, although clans give you some protection when you grow up, these things must be returned when you grow up but have not grown to reverse the rules of the clan.
Of course, if the strongest boss doesn't care about these things, there is no need to repay them. The problem is that this idea is basically equivalent to placing one's own destiny and one's own possibility entirely on others.
Wang Ke’s wife Zheng Ling is not aware of the Zheng family in Xingyang, but at least she knows what kind of family background is her family and her parents’ branch. In addition, the things she has touched indirectly from her brother and sister-in-law in recent years, she can basically confirm that her parents’ family is not considered to be empty things. Without the help of her family’s power, she may not be able to suppress her family.
Since this is the situation, Zheng Ling's already clear mind has become more and more clear.
Especially when Wang Ke put the fact of his fiefdom in front of him, Zheng Ling's mind became clearer and clearer. She accepted the hint from her parents' family. Her fiefdom was eroded in the next few decades, and at most she was praised by the Zheng family's direct descendants. However, she was still a daughter of Zheng, and she was still a concubine of the branch, and she still couldn't enter the ancestral hall.
But if she refuses, she refuses completely, even if there will be some conflict with her parents' family, she will be the mistress of the Wang family who is listed on the first page of the genealogy. As long as the Wang family is not destroyed, her tablet will always enjoy the incense.
A fiefdom that can raise a million people may not be as famous as the Zheng family of Xingyang, but in essence, this is already the foundation of the prince, so what else can I choose?
Or, what is the meaning of choice?
If I don’t have a son, if I don’t live well in the Wang family, I may miss the life of the Zheng concubine’s daughter, but I, Zheng Ling, lived well in the Wang family. I am a member of the Wang family and the future mistress of the Wang family!
Just as Chen Xi said, I have never seen prosperity and can't imagine that kind of glory, but I have seen prosperity and how can I not expect that kind of glory?
Zheng Ling's education in the Zheng family was to marry a husband of a good family and then become a virtuous supporter like her mother as much as possible. However, she was a concubine daughter, and even if she married into a branch of other families, she might not be able to become a wife.
It is precisely because she noticed this at the age of eight or nine that she is eager to learn and strives to improve herself, hoping that she can get married as a wife of a small family, rather than as a concubine who is a dowry.
Marrying Wang Ke is a fork in fate from a certain perspective. Although it was not a good match at the time, at least it was a good wife, so there was no need to worry about being given to someone as a gift one day.
But with Wang Ke's struggle, Zheng Ling got closer and closer to her mother's position back then. Even after Wang Ke was promoted to the right hand side, when Zheng Ling returned to her parents' home, she suddenly realized that her dream of being young had come true.
Now, Zheng Ling didn't dare to think, even if she had witnessed it, she didn't dare to touch it. She only dared to look from afar, for fear that she would be burned when she got close to it. The dream of burning her mind again - the mistress of Zheng's family in Xingyang, Mrs. Liehou, went in and out of the frame, and hugged in and out of the car!
That was a scene that Zheng Ling saw when she was young. The guard riding a horse in front of the car, the luxurious frame, and the noble figure even made Zheng Ling, who was not qualified to accompany her and could only look at her parents from afar, still remembered her vividly until this moment.
Zheng Ling didn’t dare to think about it in the past, because every time she recalled that scene, she was a denial of her own struggle - she divided people into levels just by birth. If she didn’t have them, wouldn’t she have them in her life?
Zheng Ling clearly knew that she was actually very happy, but as long as she dared to recall the scene more than ten years ago, she would be burned by the memories of that moment.
Why!
Zheng Ling really wanted to ask, but she couldn't ask, and she didn't dare to ask. Even now, after having three children, Zheng Ling has basically completely given up on this question.
What I saw with my own eyes when I was young, what I was suppressed by social education when I grew up, and what I dare not dream about is placed in front of me.
Why can't I be her?
I can be her!
Even if it is just possible, I can try it. Even if I am dreaming, at least I can have this dream at this moment, and I will not prick my heart and make a slight pain because of this dream. At least now, after I finish this dream, I can say confidently to my son and daughter, "Be good, my mother will give you the opportunity to compete with Zheng Mao's children."
Maybe in terms of knowledge reserves and education, I really can't catch up with the head of the family and the children of Zheng Mao, but at least I can hold my children and say, my parents have tried their best, and you can really catch up with the rest by working hard.
What did Zheng Ling face in the past?
He is an educated mother. When he sees the child he gave birth to, he knows that his child's life is at the end of his life, and even more so that his lifelong efforts will not be able to reach the level of the wife of the head of the Marquis family in Xingyang, a line of Houshi family. After all his efforts, he can only look at the other party's level from a distance outside the track.
Is it hopeless? If you don’t think about it, you won’t despair, but why don’t you think about it?
If you can't see it, you can think it's not known, and if you can't see it, you can think it's not there. But Zheng Ling lives in the Zheng family. She saw all this with her own eyes, and when she saw it, she knew that she couldn't go back.
The reason why high-ranking and powerful families suppress human nature is also here. They see a life that cannot be achieved through their lifelong efforts, and they cannot find any change. In the end, they can only rely on the superiors and inferiors.
This is the reason for despair, and it is the reason why rebels want to escape from this kind of thing.
Just like a casino, small gambling is fun, big gambling is deadly. This thing reverses your understanding of money and hard work. When you found that your decades of hard work disappeared in an instant, then turned around in an instant, and became accustomed to it, the effort lost its meaning and you couldn't go back.
Zheng Ling was unwilling to think about the head of the Zheng family because Zheng Ling knew very well that before today, her efforts were not worth mentioning in front of other people's background. The same is true for double-over-double.
Before today, the clothes of the head of the family’s wife were not qualified to wear in her life. The four-horse high cover that the head of the family’s wife was also unattainable to Zheng Ling in this life.
More importantly, some things that the descendants of the head of the family’s wife can obtain are also something that her descendants cannot touch even if they work hard in their lives.
For Zheng Ling, she had never questioned or understood. She just didn't dare to think about it and was unwilling to be burned by that despair.
But when one day she can think about it and not be burned by the light, her idea is very simple. I want to be her, and I want my descendants to become them.
Even if it cannot be fully realized, as long as this is possible, it is still good.
When ambitions begin to expand, it is not so easy to retract them, not to mention that there are enough and enough correct reasons. At this time, no one is willing to stand still.
"Can we stand it?" Wang Ke habitually accepted his wife's proposal. At least his wife is smarter, more reliable, and knows Zheng better, but she can't erase that hesitation.
As an ordinary person, Wang Ke has already existed when he was born, even when his father, and his grandfather had never seen before. He was born, like a natural landscape, and he still felt a little afraid of his family. This is human nature.
Just like most ordinary people lose some fighting spirit when they look at certain existences, or even give up directly. Even if they actually have some kind of trump card, they will still feel awe when facing certain existences. This is the same.
But for those who know these existences, as long as they do not directly abstain, the trump card in their hands is enough to play!
The difference between Zheng Ling and Wang Ke in terms of thinking is here. Zheng Ling believes that if they don’t bring the Zheng family, their Wang family may not lose if they fight with their parents head-on. Even with her, the inner thief, there is a high probability of winning.
But in Wang Ke's opinion, let alone the Zheng family in Xingyang, the capital of his wife's family should not be underestimated. They should not say that they may interfere with the Zheng family in Xingyang. Just dealing with his wife's family may conceal the ship.
In fact, this is the difference in cognitive level. Just like Chen Xi had a blind date and asked the aristocratic family to marry elite centuries, they were at a disadvantage in the eyes of all major aristocratic families. Even now there are many aristocratic families. In fact, they are just doing this because Chen Xi is invincible, but later on, they are doing it continuously.
In the eyes of all elite centuries, this is directly the national government is distributing benefits. A young lady who can read, write and arithmetic and is much more beautiful than most rural women comes with a dowry. This is directly the treatment of a winner in life.
At least for centurions who are born out by most ordinary people, this is really a dream that reflects reality.
This is also the reason why after confirming that Zhang Ningning was willing to marry him, he would rather break his leg and give up the position of the centurion of the Military Soul Legion and have to be discharged from the army.
For many soldiers, being a soldier is just a job. The reason for their life is to live a better life. If they lose their lives, they will lose their lives. But they finally got married and started a family and started a career. But they were blind and had no swords and guns on the battlefield. If they were gone, they would not die.
This is also why a group of top elite soldiers in the first year of Yuanfeng married their wives and directly retired from the army. To put it bluntly, in their minds, they made a profit and made a lot of money. They can take their wives home, so what are they going to do!
