The mistress has the obligation to help her husband's servants find suitable wives. This can be said to be an ancient etiquette in China. A good wife is not just used to help the husband deal with these husbands who are difficult to deal with, but she can handle them well.
thing?
What's more, this kind of etiquette is not only the obligation of the mistress, but also a recognition of the ability of the courtier. Generally speaking, if the mistress is willing to find a wife for you, it means that you are a very important person in this power.
There is no need to say more about Li You. Zhang's mind has not turned around yet. He did not expect who Li You is and what his identity is. Liu Bei has already noticed it even though he didn't even guess, but no one can see through it.
After telling the truth, Liu Bei just pretended that he didn't know anything.
Without revealing Li You's identity, Zhang naturally observed the abilities of each minister. Although everyone was very capable, when Zhang was not easy to evaluate and Liu Bei did not speak in person, what Zhang could do
From what we can see on the surface, Li You knows everything.
In addition, Liu Bei really thinks highly of Li You, so in Zhang's view, Li You is naturally a character who needs to pay special attention to. After Zhang's careful observation, he found that Li You seems to be quite miserable recently.
In the past, Gan had never done anything like pimping Liu Bei's ministers. On the one hand, Gan's background was indeed low. When she married Liu Bei, Liu Bei was still under Gongsun Zan. Later, Liu Bei rose to prominence, and Gan
He himself may not have corrected his position.
As for the other hand, Gan doesn't seem to have much interest in this aspect. He doesn't have this kind of thinking and has no idea of getting involved. In addition, the circle he has always been in is relatively small and his personality is soft and waxy.
I have thought about the problem of single dogs under Liu Bei.
After the Zhang family came to power, needless to say, although the Zhang family in Qinghe would not be as prominent as in the Sui and Tang Dynasties in later generations, they were still an orthodox wealthy family. Although the Zhang family had a lot of trouble with the Zhang family after marrying into the Zhen family,
That's great, but it's not like we have to give back everything like family education.
Of course, just because Gan is not interested in doing something, it does not mean that Zhang is not interested. To be precise, Zhang is very interested in this aspect, especially after giving birth to a daughter last year. Zhang completely turned his hobby to this aspect.
.
The biggest difference between normal mistresses from rich families and other wives from lower backgrounds, like Chen Lanzhong, who do not cause trouble but are unable to help their husbands, is that these women themselves can handle some things that their husbands are not suitable to handle, but
It has to be dealt with, and it will be of great benefit to the husband to deal with it well.
The male protagonist and the female protagonist also come from here, and the so-called so-called family with a good wife and husband who will not suffer any misfortune also extends from these.
Of course, it should be mentioned here that the Fan family that Chen Xi's father found for Chen Xi also had education in this aspect, and as the direct daughter of the Fan family, it is not that Fan Jian has not learned these things. After all, the Fan family has not yet collapsed, and she has learned everything she should.
I learned it, but how to say some words? Talent sometimes has a really big impact.
In addition to the fact that Chen Xi himself has always been lax in his management, and used royal methods externally, and did not need to appease his family internally, in fact, those things in Traditional and Jianxue will be wasted if they are not used for a long time.
The Zhang family didn't seem to have any intention of giving birth to a son to compete with Liu Chan for the heir apparent. After giving birth to a daughter, they decisively changed their hobbies. Liu Bei was able to escape a lot of trouble. After all, no matter where the heir apparent comes from,
From a perspective, it is a serious internal friction.
Even if you don't mean it yourself, sometimes it's not your own will that controls people, but the influence exerted by the outside world. Just like Chen Xi now, you have to be more careful when doing things. Even if you don't have that intention, you still need to worry about it.
will not be misinterpreted.
Sometimes, the appearance of certain chess pieces on the chessboard represents its own value. There is no need to do anything extra. It has value when it is seen.
Mrs. Zhang obviously did not want to participate in these intrigues. After all, compared to other people who were very utilitarian, Mrs. Zhang was actually very satisfied with her current life and did not want to disrupt it. Marrying Mrs. Zhang was very important at that time.
The most important thing is that while Zhang is holding Hebei, after marrying Liu Bei, there will be almost no one who can influence her will.
The Zhen family can't, and neither can the Zhang family. The Zhang family won't have to carry anything, they only need to do what they want to do. The Zhen family and the Zhang family have at most a little love for the Zhang family. This kind of affection can be used, but it is no longer enough.
Let the Zhen family and Zhang family rely on them, this is reality.
But sometimes Chen Xi's thinking will be inexplicably malicious. For example - Chen Xi is very suspicious that Zhang will think that with my bloodline, it seems unlikely that I will have a son, so I might as well find something I like to do.
.
Thinking about it again, Zhang is actually quite embarrassed. If he really gives birth to a son, as a legitimate son, it basically means that he has to face Chen Xi. After all, Chen Xi’s eldest daughter is married to Liu Chan, and Zhang has been treating her for so long.
From Chen Xi's understanding, it seems that he is no match for the other party.
To be precise, the other party has no pressure to suppress him, and at his age, it seems that he will have no problem in surviving him. So, why bother to fight? In addition to his identity as Mrs. Liu Bei, Zhang also has another identity:
Chen Xi’s mother-in-law!
With these two layers of protection, Zhang can be guaranteed a worry-free life, so why bother fighting for something meaningless.
Don't mess with opponents you can't afford to offend, don't get involved in meaningless struggles, and don't touch things with flowers and brocades. This is Zhang's social experience accumulated over the years.
As for giving birth to a son, in Zhang's opinion, it is the third item, a flower-bedecked thing, so she should give it up.
Unlike most families, families like the Zhen family and the Ji family have long been troubled by historical issues and no longer care about the gender of their children. Anyway, a solution will be found when the time comes. As for what to do if there is no solution at that time,
Anyway, I was already dead by then...
Similarly, during the more than ten years that Mrs. Zhang has been in the Zhen family, she has long been bent by this inertia. She has completely lost the idea of having a son to pass on the bloodline, and the son is not important.
Speaking of her daughter, Mrs. Zhang has long discovered a very strange situation. For a long time, the way Chen Xi looked at her daughter was exactly the same as the way she, the mother, looked at her daughter. That was not looking at a woman, that was completely looking at her daughter.
vision.
Of course it is no longer the case now. Although there are still those kind of nostalgic and gentle eyes occasionally, but overall the empathy has been abducted. Zhang doesn't want to delve into what is going on with Chen Xi's eyes. After all, it depends on the situation.
, Chen Xi was led astray sooner or later.
Regarding this point, Ms. Zhang is still confident. Although she occasionally thinks of the way Chen Xi looked at her daughter before, Ms. Zhang becomes a little depressed. However, after hard work, Chen Xi finally gave in. After all, she is developing in a good direction.
Maybe there will be results this year.
Because she was someone who had been there before, Zhang could clearly see Chen Xi's eyes. Of course, there was also the reason why Chen Xi didn't bother to hide it.
When Chen Xi looks at a woman, there are very few emotional fluctuations. Most of the time, he is very calm. Among the times that Zhang can see, the biggest fluctuation is when he meets Zhen Mi for the first time. It is a kind of
After seeing the ghost, there is complexity and loss, followed by some nostalgia and attachment.
As for other times, Chen Xi's vision was very clear, with no obvious ups and downs. Later, when Zhang was forced to support Zhen Mi, she was still a little sure. Chen Xi actually showed obvious emotions every time he saw Zhen Mi.
No matter what weird feelings they are, having feelings is much better than not having feelings.
What's more, with Zhen Mi's reaction, Chen Xi's feelings changed slightly every time. But how can I put it, before the showdown between Zhen Mi and Zhang the year before last, Chen Xi looked at Zhen Mi, no matter how he adjusted it, he still looked at his daughter.
of softness.
This was embarrassing. Zhen Mi had not experienced it and could not notice it. There was no Chen Qian at that time, and Zhen Mi herself had no way to compare, so Zhen Mi was always kept in the dark.
However, as a mother, Ms. Zhang actually feels very deeply about this kind of thing. Even Ms. Zhang is a little curious whether her daughter is not stunning enough, or whether Chen Xi's hobbies are too weird.
In the end, Ms. Zhang couldn't bear it any more. Her pet peeves followed you and arranged the house in Yecheng. You actually answered like this in the end, forcing Ms. Zhang to prepare to help herself.
The pimping group was established by Zhang herself when her daughter was in trouble chasing Chen Xi. However, before Zhang could help, Zhen Mi solved Chen Xi by herself.
Needless to say, the top management under Liu Bei, who was originally all single, suddenly got married one by one, so much so that Zhang's marriage has not yet been completed.
Fortunately, through observation, they discovered that there was another large-scale target, Li You. Zhang, the matchmaker who had been preparing for several years, took action decisively, no matter how hard she said it, she had to prove her combat effectiveness.
Liu Bei tried his best to turn a deaf ear. Originally, Liu Bei was not interested in participating in this kind of thing, but soon he heard that Li Youda went to the library to squat for a day during the Chinese New Year. He thought it was a joke at first, but later it was confirmed that it was true, which made him embarrassed.
After that, Liu Bei decided to have a good talk with Zhang.
His capable men were so mixed up that they had no choice but to go to the Library Pavilion to spend the New Year. Liu Bei first selected a group of maids to send them there, and then took the things prepared by Zhang and started looking for suitable candidates.
Although Li You is now over fifty, Li You, who was born in Xiliang, is in better health than most civil servants under Liu Bei's rule. He is tall, strong, and talented, and he is also a veteran under Liu Bei's rule.
, multi-layered halo blessing.
After careful inspection, even Liu Bei had to admit that Li You, apart from looking gloomy, was actually a mature and handsome guy.
