For two consecutive days, Lu Bu was discussing with Cai Yong, Cai Wenji, Chen Gong and Mi Zhu on how to distribute the land of the Mi family and Tao Qian family.
According to Lu Bu's idea, it should be distributed directly to the poor. Whoever wants land can pay the grain, or someone from the family can join the army.
Cai Yong and others unanimously opposed this simple and crude distribution method for various reasons.
For example, it will cause panic among the gentry everywhere and lose their support, thus leading to instability in the current situation.
After all, land is limited, but there are so many refugees and landless tenants. Who doesn’t want to get some land?
Those who are not allocated land will definitely be the majority. When the time comes, these people who are not allocated land will definitely be jealous of those who are allocated land, and gradually this dissatisfaction and resentment will be transferred to Lu Bu, the instigator.
This is what is called not worrying about scarcity but worrying about inequality, not worrying about poverty but worrying about insecurity.
After some discussion, Lu Bu also understood that he had thought of the problem too simply.
He just wants to learn from the teacher, simply and crudely divide the land from the local tycoons, so that the poor people in the world can stand up and be liberated, and all remember his own goodness.
It seems that we still need to consider the social form and the acceptance ability of the people, and cannot just apply it mechanically.
Still no result was reached after discussion, so she took Cai Wenji on her arm and returned to the inner house together. Cai Wenji couldn't help but smile when she saw Lu Bu's expression of bitterness and hatred:
"Don't worry, Marquis Wen. This is a major matter related to the livelihood of millions of people. How can it be decided overnight? I think there will always be a proper way to deal with it."
Lu Bu patted Cai Wenji on the head and said with a smile, "My wife can still speak."
Cai Wenji smiled sweetly: "It's not that I can speak, I just tell the truth. Even if Marquis Wen is a capable person, such a big thing cannot be solved in a flash.
Take your time, think of a feasible method first, and try it on a small scale to see how it works. If it works, it won't be too late to promote it. "
Lu Bu put his hand on Cai Wenji's slightly swollen belly and said softly: "Madam, please follow me and pay more attention. You are a twin, so you shouldn't work too hard and should cultivate yourself well."
"It's only been a few months, how could it be so precious..." Cai Wenji murmured in a low voice, and quietly pressed her body against Lu Bu's body.
The first husband was a sick man and died not long after the marriage.
After being widowed at home for two years and marrying Lu Bu as her concubine, Cai Wenji realized firsthand the joy of being a wife.
The two of them were bored when they heard the door being pushed open with a creak, and then an exclamation of surprise.
"I didn't see anything!" Mi Lin hurriedly covered her eyes and said.
Lu Bu pulled Mi Lin over angrily and slapped her on the butt lightly: "What are you doing, little girl? What can you do if you see her?"
Mi Lin rubbed her butt aggrievedly and said, "Marquis Wen, you'd better go see Mrs. Gan. Do you want to ask Divine Doctor Hua to diagnose her pulse?"
"Ah? Mrs. Gan? What's wrong with her?" Lu Bu asked with a frown.
Mi Lin said: "I don't know what happened. She hasn't eaten in the past two days. She only ate some thin soup and water, and she vomited it out after a while. She has lost a lot of weight..."
"Ah? She...she's pregnant, right?" Cai Wenji, a person who has been here, said with experience.
As he spoke, he glanced at Lu Bu thoughtfully.
Lu Bu glared: "Why are you looking at me? Even if she is pregnant, she is not mine! I have only known her for a few days? Besides, am I that kind of person?"
Cai Wenji curled her lips: "You are not that kind of person, you only do that kind of thing!"
Lu Bu stretched out his big hand and pinched Cai Wenji's fat cheeks and said with a smile: "See, I'm not willing to give you my own tricks now, are you? Just wait, I'll take a small notebook and write it down for you. It’s time to settle the ledger with you!”
Cai Wenji's face turned red and she spat: "The more you talk, the less serious you become! Marquis Wen should ask Divine Doctor Hua to take a look at Mrs. Gan."
Lu Bu chuckled and said, "Miracle Doctor Hua is very busy, so I, the master of the miraculous doctor, should go and have a look!"
"Hey... Marquis Wen, do you know this too?"
Cai Wenji knew that Lu Bu knew some medical skills, especially surgery. Hua Tuo admired him, but did he also know about gynecology?
Lu Bu turned around and smiled mysteriously: "Heart ailments still need to be treated with heart medicine, and the one who untie the bell is still the one who ties the bell!"
After that, he turned around and left.
"Heart ailments still need to be treated with heart medicine, and the person who untied the bell still needs to tie the bell..."
Cai Wenji murmured and repeated Lu Bu's words, and her eyes began to sparkle again.
"No, I want to write this sentence down!"
After Cai Wenji finished writing, Mi Lin asked a little shyly: "Sister Wenji, just now... what kind of family law was the family law that Marquis Wen just mentioned?"
"Family law..." Cai Wenji's face heated up and she said, "Oh, you'll know when the time comes!"
Mi Lin said a little coyly: "Sister, my sister is young and ignorant. She married Marquis Wen in a hurry, so she really doesn't know what the rules and laws are at home.
What should I do if I violate any of these rules in the future and make Marquis Wen angry and he doesn't like me anymore?
My sister said she would take care of me. You are older than me, you know more than me, and you started school earlier than me, so you should teach me..."
As she spoke, she looked aggrieved and grabbed Cai Wenji's arm and gently shook her coquettishly.
Cai Wenji was a little dumbfounded. She poked Mi Ling's little nose and said:
"Don't worry, the more Marquis Wen uses his family methods on you, the more he likes you!"
"Ah? How could it be? Sister, you lied to me! I won't obey!"
"Don't believe it? If you don't believe it, I'll go talk to Marquis Wen later and ask him to tell you what family law is~" Cai Wenji smiled mysteriously.
"Sister~" Mi Lin continued to act coquettishly.
Cai Wenji couldn't hold her anymore, so she had to say: "Go to that little girl Diao Chan, she knows best!"
----
Boom, boom, boom.
There was a knock on the door, and Mrs. Gan came back to her senses, sat up straight and said, "Please come in."
Lu Bu pushed the door open and came in. He smiled slightly and said, "I heard that Madam is ill?"
Mrs. Gan thought it was the maid who came to serve tea and food, but how could she have imagined that it was Lu Bu who was here?
He hurriedly stood up and prayed: "I didn't know that Marquis Wen was coming, so I apologize for being so far away..."
Lu Bu stopped him in a hurry and said, "You don't have to be polite. Why don't you call me General now? Why do you call me Marquis Wen now?"
Mrs. Gan looked a little embarrassed and said: "Because I didn't know much about Wen Hou's deeds before. In the past two days, I listened to the sisters talking about many things about Wen Hou, and then I realized that he was a county prince and a prince consort. He was indomitable. You are a good man. I have been neglectful in the past. I hope..."
Before she could finish speaking, Lu Bu waved his hand and said, "Hey, there's no need to be so polite, I'm not a big shot, how can I let the whole world know about it?
But...since Madam already knows about me, I still know very little about Madam, and I don’t even know Madam’s name. Isn’t this unfair? "
