Chapter 324 A Night of Friendship Building
Chapter 324 A Night of Friendship Building
But now, the king of the Muzhen tribe has only three sons, the youngest of whom is Muzhen Tianhao.
If nothing unexpected happens, he should be the king of the Muzhen tribe in the future.
"Isn't it usually the eldest son who inherits the family business? Why is it that in your tribe it is the youngest son who inherits? Won't your two brothers have any objections?" Song Renjing asked.
"Why should they have objections? This is the law of our Muzhen tribe. Kings of all generations have done this." Muzhen Tianhao said.
Song Renjing still couldn't believe it, and asked, "Did the eldest brother or brothers ever refuse to obey or seize power during your inheritance?"
Mu Zhen Tianhao thought for a moment before answering, "I haven't heard of it. This is how our tribe inherits. Except for the royal family, ordinary families also inherit the family business like this. The youngest son inherits the family business."
Song Renjing didn't believe what Mu Zhen Tianhao said. No matter how perfect the system is, it can't control people's hearts.
Where there are people, there will be disputes and interests, and people will be divided into close and distant relatives.
However, since they are on someone else's turf, it is not a good idea to ask too many questions, lest people think they are trying to instigate others.
Then, they started talking about interesting things in other tribes.
Muzhen Tianhao said: "There is also a Yelu tribe on our grassland. The king of that tribe is a woman, and they all respect women.
Men in their tribe have to get married, and women have to marry.
A capable woman can marry more than a dozen men."
"Ah~ There is such a place? Would the man be willing to be married like this? Can a capable man marry three wives and four concubines?" Gu Xiang asked curiously.
Mu Zhen Tianhao said: "Men in their tribe are not allowed to marry three or four women. They all have to get married, just like the women in our tribe."
"Do they also do housework and handle household affairs like women?" Song Renjing asked.
"What I'm more curious about is, do the men in their tribe give birth to children?" Gu Xiang asked weakly. He was really curious.
"How is this possible? They are men after all." Mu Zhen Tianhao looked at the two of them in disbelief.
This information was almost enough to shatter Song Renjing and Gu Xiang's three views.
Although they followed Gu Fu and came into contact with modern knowledge, they only learned more about the subject and their understanding of some customs was indeed insufficient.
At most, I know about the Kingdom of Women in Journey to the West, but that is a fictional story. I didn't expect that there is a place in reality that is more terrifying than the Kingdom of Women.
For more than ten years, the two of them have been living in a world where men are respected. They never expected that under the same sky, there actually exists a world where women are the masters and women are respected.
The two felt unbelievable.
Seeing his two brothers like this, Gu Fu said, "The world is full of wonders, and there are many strange customs. Go back and take a good look at the "Abbreviation" (the abbreviation of the simplified Chinese book, given by the Gu family). There are many more strange things in it than this.
The two of them calmed down when they saw that their sister was calm. They thought to themselves that they should learn more from their sister.
Mu Zhen Tianhao was also very curious about where they came from, so he asked, "What is your place like?"
Then, Gu Xiang told him some interesting stories about their time in Dagu Village, mostly about catching fish in the river, climbing trees to steal bird eggs, and some interesting things in their studies.
He also told some stories that were widely circulated in the villages and towns near Dagu Village.
Song Renjing carried the capital and told Mu Zhen Tianhao about the interesting things he encountered along the way from the capital to Zesheng County.
Through the descriptions of the two people, Mu Zhen Tianhao concluded that the place they came from was not only densely populated, but also rich in resources and had many industries.
Everyone can do different things, not like them, herding horses and sheep every day, fighting endlessly for a piece of fertile grassland.
For a moment, Mu Zhen Tianhao had an infinite yearning for the outside of the grassland. "From what you said, your place is great. I really want to go and see it if I have the chance."
Song Renjing comforted him: "There will be such a day!"
While they were talking, Zhibao and An'emon arranged the delicacies one by one.
Mu Zhen Tianhao sniffed the fragrant food in front of him and swallowed.
But the food neatly laid out on the table was so different from their dining habits that he didn't know where to start.
"Third Prince, eat!" Seeing that Mu Zhen Tianhao was only looking at the food, Gu Xiang offered his way.
Gu Fu guessed Mu Zhen Tianhao's embarrassment and said, "This is the delicacy in our place. It is different from yours. You need to use chopsticks to eat it. Let me teach you now."
"Okay, thank you." Mu Zhen Tianhao said embarrassedly.
The two boys who were watching smiled kindly and consoled her, "It's your first time eating our food, so it's normal for you to not know how to start. Don't be embarrassed."
Next, the two of them joined in teaching Mu Zhen Tianhao how to use chopsticks and how to pick up food, including explaining the dishes on the table, and even extending to table etiquette.
You have to know that the men on the grassland usually cut large pieces of meat with a knife and bite them directly.
This was the first time Mu Zhen Tianhao came across this way of eating. He learned it very seriously and enjoyed eating it very much.
It was also this night of study that made Mu Zhen Tianhao win the praise and favor of countless Han people when he attended the first banquet after entering the Pass. Of course, this is a later story, so I won't mention it here for now.
After that dinner, Mu Zhen Tianhao felt that he had made a great deal.
Not only did I make a few friends outside the grassland, drink delicious milk tea, eat delicacies I had never eaten before, but I also learned dining etiquette outside the grassland.
Mu Zhen Tianhao felt that this day was simply so happy!
This day, also listed in the comments of later generations as the day when the gears of destiny began to turn.
After the meal, Gu Xiang made milk tea for everyone, and everyone chatted while drinking the milk tea.
They also had a discussion about their common enemies.
It was learned that the rebel army had actually started a war in Daxia and captured Daxia's cities, as well as the atrocities committed by the rebel army.
When they learned about what they had done to their followers, abandoning the sick followers and bringing only the healthy ones to the grassland.
Muzhen Tianhao felt that he should report this matter to his father, and let his father be firm and not to go along with the rebel army no matter what.
It was getting late, and Mu Zhen Tianhao's followers came to urge them.
Mu Zhen Tianhao then said goodbye to them reluctantly.
Gu Xiang called him again, took the tea bowl that had been warming on the stove, put it in a thick cup, and handed it to Mu Zhen Tianhao's follower, "Take these back and share them with your family members to have a taste."
