Chapter 563: Little Fat Cat, Do You Want to Travel to the World in the Book? [Ask for Monthly Votes]
"Sister Yunxiao praised your delicious tofu pudding. Are you happy?"
After dinner, Zhou Ruotong sat in the pavilion and taught Diao Chan to play the guitar. Li Yu cleaned up the kitchen and was about to go over to cultivate her. Mu Guiying, who had gone to deliver tofu pudding to Yunxiao, came back and pulled him to talk in private.
Li Yu laughed:
"It's just a casual tinkering. What's there to be happy about?"
"Laugh if you want to laugh. I'm not jealous... Zhao Gongming said that he can eat a jar of pickles in one meal. If you want to marry Sister Yunxiao, you have to eat a jar of pickles on the spot."
Li Yu: ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
I have attended several weddings since graduation. I have seen people blocking the door to ask for red envelopes, and I have also seen people placing a pile of wine at the door to force the groom to drink the wine.
But the pickles blocking the door of my brother-in-law...what kind of weird custom is this?
And it's not just one or two bites, but a whole jar. There are so many pickles that even if you bring the whole wedding party, you can hardly finish them.
Li Yu asked:
"Is this a rule in the world of Fengshen?"
Zishou never mentioned this. There was no item of pickles in the Chaoge customs encyclopedia that Wen Zhong gave me before. There were even no pickles at that time. Only the nobles could eat all kinds of sauces, and they were very bitter.
Mu Guiying said with a smile:
"When Zhao Gongming first came into contact with mortals in Chaoge, he didn't control his appetite and ate a whole jar of pickles in one meal, which was more than the amount of pickles that an average family eats in a year. Then he regarded this as a great thing and boasted about it everywhere."
He is the God of Wealth after all, can't he have some pursuit?
Li Yu took out a watermelon from the refrigerator and handed it to Mu Guiying:
"Take it to the pavilion and eat it. Watermelons are out of season. If you want to eat this kind of melon in the future, you have to wait until next year."
"What do you mean? You can't eat watermelon in the future?"
"You can eat it all year round, but this kind of flower-skinned melon from Yinzhou is out of season. You can only eat melons from other places in the future."
Mu Guiying took it as soon as she heard it, and came to the pavilion with the watermelon in her arms to share the melon with Zhou Ruotong and Diao Chan.
Li Yu took a newly bought tablet computer and downloaded a bunch of tutorials on making tofu pudding. He also took out tutorials on making ginger milk, double skin milk, milk tofu, almond tofu and other similar delicacies. Then he secretly asked Dao Ge to call Zishou and asked him to give the tablet computer to Yunxiao.
When Yunxiao learns it, there will be a constant supply of delicious food in the future.
I'm not greedy, I just want to help Yunxiao maintain her humanity. After all, she has killed three corpses, so it's easy to be assimilated by the way of heaven, so I have to help her as much as possible.
Zishou took the tablet computer to the gate of the courtyard where Sanxiao lived. Before he could knock on the door, Qiongxiao came out to greet him:
"Your Majesty Zishou, did my brother-in-law ask you to deliver something again?"
"Yes, he asked me to pass this tablet computer to Queen Yunxiao."
"Give it to me!"
Qiongxiao took the tablet computer and returned to the courtyard happily. Just as Zishou was about to leave, two trays with various snacks suddenly flew out of the courtyard.
Yunxiao's voice came from the courtyard:
"Send one tray to the real world for me, and your majesty can take the other tray back to share with your family...Also tell the gentleman that I like his poems very much."
Zishou agreed and quickly sent it to the real world, and conveyed Yunxiao's words to Li Yu.
"Poems? When did I write poems?"
Li Yu felt a little puzzled. He pinched a piece of pumpkin crisp and tasted it. It tasted very good, so he sent Zishou back, and then took the snacks to the pavilion and asked a few beauties to taste them.
As for the poem, it was probably a forged edict from a certain empress... Hey, why am I using royal vocabulary?
As expected, the closer you are to the red, the redder you are; the closer you are to the ink, the blacker you are; the closer you are to the emperor, the more emperor you are!
Putting down the tray, Li Yu took the guitar and performed an improvisational solo for the group. Zhou Ruotong asked with a smile:
"Your chords are too messy, aren't they? The rhythm is also unstable."
"Just tell me whether it's improvisational or not?"
Li Yu didn't dare to play too much. After all, this guitar cost nearly six figures, not just a practice guitar that cost one or two hundred yuan in college. Not to mention playing with it, even if he imitated a rock star and smashed the guitar impromptu, there would be no financial pressure.
Zhou Ruotong took Li Yu's mobile phone and looked at the four infantry fighting vehicles to be auctioned:
"This kind of vehicle has a bit of excess performance in ancient times. Dongfeng Mengshi is actually more than enough. The only disadvantage may be that the fuel tank is too small. It has to be converted into a large fuel tank after it is bought back."
Li Yu said:
"For the time being, we don't need so many. When the production capacity of the oil base increases in the future, we can equip each unit with a tanker with strong off-road capabilities. At that time, it will be much more convenient to equip a few command vehicles."
The output of the oil base is relatively small now, and the refined oil is all self-spraying oil. If you want a high output, you still have to drill oil wells.
Li Yu ate two pieces of watermelon, and tasted the cloud cake and thousand-layer pastry made by Yunxiao. Then he picked up his mobile phone and looked at the ordered hydropower equipment units.
Several sets of generators need to be installed on the Hutuo River. The construction is very difficult. The amount of concrete alone will keep the mixing station busy for a while.
When the hydroelectric power station is built, the weapons workshop will be moved to the side of the dam, using electricity to make steel, and then forging it into various sophisticated weapons and armor to increase defense and combat effectiveness.
However, equipment alone is not enough, the soldiers' fighting spirit must also be improved.
In addition, a good military pay system must be formed. As long as the military pay is in place, it will not be a problem to deal with foreign races.
Take the Western Army, which has been training with the Western Xia for many years. If they really paid enough and did not deduct food and weapons, they would definitely be able to fight to the capital of the Western Xia within a year, and even take the Western Xia royal family to Kaifeng for a captive ceremony.
Unfortunately, the Song Dynasty had rich experience in limiting the combat effectiveness of the army. After just two victories, the main general would be transferred away for fear of another yellow robe.
The dynasties that won the country unjustly were like this. They were afraid of wolves in front and tigers behind, and they were timid no matter what they did.
The dynasties that won the country justly, such as the Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty, were very tolerant. As long as you are useful, no matter where you are from, I will give you an official position.
This kind of mind is the true demeanor of a great country.
Although the Ming Dynasty was also a conquered court, because Zhu Di usurped the throne of his nephew, he was still somewhat unconfident in his heart. He even did not trust the Jinyiwei, and established the East Factory to supervise the Jinyiwei and officials, and every word and action was recorded in the book.
In short, it was guilty.
Of course, this is also related to the increasing emphasis on reputation after death.
During the Han Dynasty, both the emperor and the gentry believed that merits and demerits would be judged by future generations, so no one cared about the distorted facts in history writing; some minor flaws that could be covered up were not covered up by the emperor at all.
This attitude of not whitewashing or covering up made the emperors of the Han Dynasty have mixed reputations.
Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, who was regarded as an idol and a goal by Li Shimin, became a high-end green tea and white lotus who raised male favorites in the mouths of netizens; Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty became a second-rate emperor who failed to micromanage and almost caused national turmoil; as for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che, who beat the Huns and made them flee in panic, he became a synonym for tyrant.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, emperors began to pay attention to their reputation after death.
This was actually forced by the situation. After all, Cao Wei, as a minister, usurped the Han Dynasty, and the "loyalty", "filial piety" and "virtue" advocated by the Han Dynasty were lost by Cao Wei.
And Sima usurped the Wei Dynasty and trampled on "virtue", and the oath of falling into the water became a joke.
As for filial piety, the Sima family started fighting among themselves. Although they were a family, no one obeyed or trusted each other, and they killed each other.
If it weren't for this series of actions that moved the country, the Five Barbarians would not dare to come to the Central Plains to make trouble even if they had a hundred guts, let alone claim to be kings and dominate and cause chaos in China.
In the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin didn't really care about his reputation after death. He smashed Wei Zheng's stone tablet in anger, purely because Wei Zheng, the old guy, blew himself up after his death. Many times he strongly opposed it in the court, not because he thought the government orders were bad, but simply to earn himself a good reputation as a loyal minister.
How could Li Shimin tolerate such a thing that delayed the government for his own reputation? He smashed Wei Zheng's stone tablet to pieces.
Although it was rebuilt later, the meaning was completely different.
The first time he erected a monument for Wei Zheng, he was respectful to the emperor, but after smashing it, he erected another monument, which was a pity and reward for the deceased.
Fortunately, the things in the official history did not appear in the novel. Whether in "The Story of the Rise of Tang" or "Journey to the West", Li Shimin and Wei Zheng got along well, and there was no tension and confrontation as in the official history.
At around nine o'clock in the evening, the family did not stay in the city, but drove to the city.
After taking a shower and changing into home clothes, they watched "The Shawshank Redemption" in the living room, and then went back to their rooms to rest.
In the master bedroom, Li Yu finished his work, hugged Professor Zhou and asked:
"Wife, when will we have the wedding?"
"It's all right. After the wedding, your household registration will be moved to the capital, and medical insurance and other things will be transferred there. In case of any physical problems... No, I have become a god, and I don't need to see a doctor here for ordinary diseases."
"What you said makes sense, but you keep talking about illness. I feel that there is something behind your words, so I have to verify it."
"No, I just... Oh, please be gentle, it's so bad..."
When the two of them were cooking with a hot fire, Mu Guiying was still playing games in the guest bedroom, and Diao Chan, who was trimming her toenails next to her, said:
"The sweet tofu pudding made by my husband is so delicious."
The queen blushed:
"It's not good, it's so bad."
Diao Chan: ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
Why do I feel that you and I are not talking about the same thing?
Just as she was about to ask what was going on, Mu Guiying put down her phone and prepared to go back to her room to rest:
"I'm going to take the second test tomorrow, don't disturb me, if I fail it's your responsibility."
This girl is talented and has strong hands-on skills. In addition, she is a VVVVIP customer of the driving school. She has practiced enough recently and plans to take the second test to familiarize herself with the examination process.
Diao Chan reminded:
"Tomorrow you must remember to bring your husband's treasure-losing money, and let Dun Dun help you."
"No, we are technical experts, we can pass the exam without these minor details. When I get my driver's license, I will drive you to the provincial capital to play."
The Queen said righteously that she would take the exam based on her ability. However, as soon as she got up the next day, she found Li Yu who was busy preparing breakfast in the kitchen:
"Husband, I will take the second subject test today. This is a level that even professional rally drivers find super difficult. If you are not careful, you will fail the test..."
Li Yu put the bought spicy soup and flat noodles into the bowl, and said without raising his head:
"Don't put too much pressure on yourself, keep a normal mind, your sister Zhou and I passed the driver's license test in one go, and you can do it too."
"If you say so, then I can't fail. Our family's fine tradition of passing the test in one go cannot be broken in my hands. If it is broken, it will be the fairy cicada."
Diao Chan on the side laughed so hard that she couldn't straighten her waist:
"My dear, Sister Guiying wants to borrow your Luobao Money to take the exam, but she didn't get to the point after talking for a long time."
After finishing his work, Li Yu took off the Luobao Money from his neck and handed it to Mu Guiying:
"Let's prepare for dinner. I'll take you to the exam room after dinner."
"You guys eat first, I'll go to the room to clean up."
Mu Guiying took the Luobao Money back to the room, and as soon as she closed the door, she held the Luobao Money in both hands and prayed devoutly:
"The holy fire is shining, the holy fire is shining, all my disciples, meow meow meow... Little Fatty calls Little Fatty, I have an exam today, can you not Can you help me? To express our gratitude, our Mu Ke Village will go north to the grassland next month. I have specially designed a very exquisite small armor for you. How about inviting you to go with me? "
"I read in the information that the British shorthair blue cat used to be a war cat and followed Caesar to fight in the south and the north. Little fat cat, you are so powerful. Come to the battlefield with me. Let's kill together and experience the joy of Zhao Yun's seven ins and seven outs. How about it? If you don't refuse within three seconds, it means you agree!"
In the capital, Dun Dun sat on the cat castle with a speechless face, feeling like he was being tricked.
In such a short time, I don't even have time to send emoticons in the group... Forget it, it's just right to go to the world in the book and help the dog make an assessment.
The little fat cat left his room, found Lin Xu, and typed a sentence on the computer:
"I'm going to the world in the book."
Lin Xu, who had just made baby food, was stunned:
"Why did you suddenly think of going to the world in the book? What if the Heavenly Saint in it deals with you?"
Dun Dun tapped the keyboard with his claws:
"If I go, I will be the one who escaped, and no one can catch me."
The little cat who has the ability of luck, coupled with the suppression of the dimension, even the Heavenly Saint can do nothing.
Lin Xu became interested:
"What if Li Yu went?"
"Then he is the one who escaped. According to the description of classical mythology, there is always an existence that is not bound by the Tao."
"What about me? If I go, will I also be the one who escaped?"
"No, you have a system. If you go, the system will most likely issue you a bunch of commands. Once you start executing, there will be traces to follow, and you will not be the one who escaped."
Without a system, there are no restrictions, so Li Yu can do whatever he wants without being constrained.
Lin Xu didn't expect there was such a difference, and he became even more curious about another question:
"Without the system, he became single. Was it someone else who stole Li Yu's system, or was it Li Yu who stole someone else's opportunity?"
Dun Dun couldn't answer this question either.
It was not until the crying of Lin Chengye and Lin Jiye came from the living room that Lin Xu took the complementary food to feed them. Dun Dun also ran over and slapped the bell on the rocking bed to amuse the two younger brothers.
Yinzhou, Guanlan Mingshu Community.
Li Yu brought breakfast to the table, looked at Mu Guiying and asked:
"What were you mumbling in the room just now?"
"Nothing, just reviewing the rules of the subject 2 exam... If I can pass it today, I will treat everyone to lunch at noon!"
Diao Chan handed her a fried dough stick:
"What are you treating us to?"
"Steak, I don't feel full when Sister Zhou took us to that restaurant last time, so I have to order a few more today."
Zhou Ruotong looked at the work plan on her phone:
"Okay, I don't have anything to do in the morning, just come to my office after the exam."
Mu Guiying began to calculate how many steaks to eat at noon, while Diao Chan, who likes sweets, thought about the caramel pudding from that restaurant.
Li Yu was not very interested in Western food, but since the Queen invited him, he would go along to join in the fun.
After breakfast, Li Yu cleaned up the kitchen, and after Zhou Ruotong left for work, he drove Mu Guiying and Diao Chan through the entire city to the subject 2 exam site.
After arriving, Mu Guiying went to find the driving school coach. Li Yu parked the car under the shade of a tree on the roadside, put the seat down, and just as he was about to take a nap, Diao Chan in the co-pilot seat came over and secretly kissed him on the face:
"Husband, I miss you."
"I miss you too. School is about to start. What else do you want? I'll buy it for you."
"Sister Zhou has bought me a lot of things. I don't need them anymore. I just want to talk to my husband."
"Okay, then I'll chat with you for five dollars."
Since he couldn't sleep, Li Yu didn't stay idle. He adjusted the seat and drove to a nearby dessert shop that had just opened. He bought a Black Forest cake for a little girl who liked sweets, and a glass of lemon salt soda with 70% sugar.
"It's amazing that salt can be made into sugar water."
"Salt soda is produced by the steel mill. It happens to replenish electrolytes, so it became popular in the steel mill and even became a category of soda. When I was in school, Zhang Guoan often stole soda from the factory for me to drink."
"Hey, doesn't that mean Muke Village can also have a soda factory?"
"It hasn't reached the scale yet, but there will definitely be one in the future... What else to eat? I'll order some more and bring Guiying a cup of full-sugar salt soda later. Whether she can pass the exam or not, she must be encouraged, not discouraged."
Li Yu ordered a freshly made strawberry mousse for Diao Chan, which was decorated with fresh strawberries and looked tempting.
The little girl said that eating sweets was a sin while eating the mousse clean. Occasionally, she talked about her experiences during the trip and the interesting things she talked about with Geng Lele. She was completely a carefree middle school student.
The weak woman who sacrificed herself for her country and the world in the original novel finally no longer had to bear a mission that did not belong to her.
The two sat for about an hour. When Li Yu was about to buy another tiramisu to try, Mu Guiying suddenly called with excitement in her voice:
"Hahaha, I passed the test, passed the second subject in one go, the king of Bayinbuluke can't beat me!"
