Chapter 946: Communicative Concubine
Chen Baicao couldn't help but laugh when he saw that the old city lord Lamai was so stupid.
People are drawing inferences from one another, this one is good, and it is wrong to draw inferences.
Such a stupid assistant, Chen Baicao really didn't want to say anything about him, but he still couldn't hold back.
"I said, brother, do you know how the bear died?"
Old Lamai smiled and said, "The bear is dead? Is it really dead? I saw them the day before yesterday, why did they die? I really don't know how they died." ”
Chen Baicao: "Stupid! ”
Old Lamech: "Oh. ”
I wondered in my heart, there are a few of them on the edge of the city, and I have fought with them, they are not stupid at all, they are very agile, they run very fast, I am much dumber than them!
It was fine last time, but why did he die all of a sudden?
Honest people have one benefit, and if you can't figure it out, you don't want to.
looked at Chen Baicao with two big eyes of curiosity and listened to her.
"It is forbidden to intermarry within the three suits, that is, men and women cannot intermarry within the three generations of blood relatives, and when it comes to intermarriage, of course, it can only be between men and women, and between the same generation, that is, not between men and women, not between the same generation, no matter how many clothes can not intermarry! ”
"Sister, give me an example, I like the example you gave the most, I understand it when I hear it, hehe. ”
Lao Lamai saw the stitches, and took advantage of Chen Baicao's breath to quickly ask questions.
Chen Baicao was speechless for a while, and increased his forehead with his hand, and he had to give an example of such a simple thing.
However, as soon as my mind turned, I was relieved.
The ancients did not have the same kind of same-sex marriage as in later generations, so they don't know that there is such a thing; the ancients did not have long since the book of Genesis, and naturally there were not too many generations of people.
"Well, it's not that a man and a woman can't get married, or you can't marry two men, or you can't marry two women. ”
Old Lamey's eyes widened: "That's okay?
Obviously, even Lamech, a descendant of a doubly disobedient Creator, finds this kind of thing inconceivable and absolutely unacceptable.
"Different generations are forbidden to marry, this is mainly to protect the weak, such as you, you are the head of the family, the lord of a city, once the heart is inflated, you will not arbitrarily take away your young and junior girls as your daughter-in-law? ”
The old city lord Lamai understood, and his cheeks flushed in an instant.
These words really pierced his heart!
Because after he ate that Bazhen fried rice, a wave of heat came from his belly, and he was thinking about getting a fifth wife and concubine, and he already had a goal.
That target is a grandchild girl.
The people who came over Chen Baicao knew at a glance that this old Lamai didn't hold back a good idea, and secretly took a sip, throughout the ages, men have not had a good thing!
No matter what he thinks of this only audience in his heart, Chen Baicao has to continue to come.
"After this rule, the three suits are not intermarried, under normal circumstances, that is, your grandchildren cannot intermarry, and if your brothers and sisters have sons and daughters, they cannot intermarry with your sons and daughters, because from your father, they are within the three suits, but their grandchildren can marry your granddaughters, because they have already produced the three suits, understand?"
Old Lamech clutched his head and muttered, "It's complicated!" ”
Although Chen Baicao wanted to speed up, when he met such a brain-filled person, he could only give him a little more time.
Old Lamech suddenly raised his head: "I'm going to marry my sister's granddaughter, this is not within the three suits, it should be fine, right?"
Chen Baicao refuted: "No! Although this is out of three suits, it violates the principle that marriage must be carried out among peers, and it belongs to the scope of prohibiting marriage between different generations. ”
"Alas, I have to cheapen my grandson and let her marry my own grandson, this is always okay, right?"
"Your grandson and your brother's granddaughter intermarry, and they have three suits, and they are the same generation, or between men and women, theoretically! But it also depends on whether the other party agrees, and this marriage system prohibits forced marriage! Otherwise, you have great power, and you don't want to do whatever you want?"
"My son ......"
"Okay, this example is over, if you don't understand something in the future, just see how I deal with it, and when you need to take care of this matter in the future, just follow the cat and draw the tiger! It seems that you don't have this ability in a short period of time, let's talk, what are the problems in this link?"
"Okay, I'll learn from my sister in the future! What's the problem...... By the way, there really is a problem, a big problem! You said that it is good to marry according to generation, and not to be able to serve three times, but can any of us determine their seniority and rely on ourselves? Those lawless young people are not like your brother and me, they are typical loyal and honest, and they have no lies, but they are used to telling nonsense with their eyes open! If there are few people, I can distinguish them by memory, and now there are 200,000 people in Lamada alone, who remembers?"
"You don't have an official household register?"
"What is that? I don't know, but I dare say, it's not. ”
"That's the problem, so do you have a complete family tree, for example, your family, isn't there more than 300 people? Is there a register, everyone is on it?"
"No, but I remember who everyone in my family was. ”
"Brother, you have a good question! You can eat a plate at the next meal! Revoke the punishment you were given before as a reward for you! Now we must add an indispensable task, that is, to establish a complete household registration system, all people must be recorded, and when we examine and approve their marriage applications, there must be a well-documented record, and this evidence comes from this household registration system, so that you can give an order that the men and women who are going to get married tonight should register all the members of their families and report them to me. ”
"It's okay to give them orders, but I don't know how to prepare that thing, we don't have a unified text, not even numbers!"
Chen Baicao suddenly realized that this was a great obstacle!
She was able to communicate with the old lord Lamech, not because they spoke the same language, but because of the medium in between.
If it weren't for this powerful language communication assistant, the two of them would be playing the piano to the cow, and they could only hear each other's wah-wow-la-wah, but they would be blowing fire with a rolling pin and not knowing what those words meant.
However, whether this universal language can enable these rural people to learn words quickly and prepare their own genealogy and other things, Chen Baicao has no idea at all.
She also decided that she wouldn't worry about this matter and leave it to Baili Lianglu and Mai Ke to give them a headache.
Baili Liangliu is in charge of the overall work, so naturally he should have a headache.
McKe was in charge of all these things that seemed to be beyond the reach of manpower, so that the headache of Baili Liangliu was also healed by him.
After she sent the question and the request to Baili Liangliu, she went on to talk to old Lame.
"We don't care about the household registration for now, and now I ask you, you are not allowed to intermarry within three suits, there is no problem with this, right?"
Old Lamai was still reluctant: "Mmmmmmmm, even if there is no problem! Even if there is a problem, even if I don't understand, isn't there still an old sister." ”
He remembered what the old sister had said before, and the conditions for marriage seemed to be more than the same, so he asked: "Didn't the old sister just say that there are three things? The one I just said is the correct surname, and the second condition is the media concubine, what is that matchmaker, and what does the media concubine mean?"
For this old brother, Chen Baicao can't be really angry, he is at this level, and his studious spirit is not bad.
Another one is fortunate that Chen Baicao is presiding over this matter, after all, she is a native of Gu Nongwu, and the people there have maintained the kindness and simplicity of human nature; if you change to a person from the outside world, the good things are not maintained, and all those little clever tricks are omniscient, and when you meet an honest man like the old city lord Lamai, who is not very civilized, it is estimated that he will be bullied to death.
However, the outcome is difficult to predict.
If you don't make a good fuss, the old city lord will be angry, and it will be light to beat him.
Maybe a few grandchildren and dozens of great-grandchildren will be summoned and rushed up and beaten to death.
Therefore, misfortune and blessing are relied on, blessing and misfortune are lurking, and it is better to be honest and suffer losses.
Because among the three conditions, the media concubine is a key link, and the requirements and meanings of both parties can be clearly explained to the other party in order to reach a marriage agreement, so as to avoid misunderstandings in the middle, Chen Baicao said it in more detail and tried to be as simple as possible.
She estimated that it would be good for other people to be able to understand the old city lord, so she used the old city lord's understanding as the standard for communicating with people.
Chen Baicao said: "The media concubine means to marry solemnly, that is, to take the very important matter of marrying a man and a woman seriously, and change the casual way you used to do it now.
"I think the cooperation between men and women like you is too unserious, very casual, even more casual than eating, not much different from those beasts.
"Those beasts, there is also a natural limitation, that is, when the spring grass germinates, it causes their lust to flourish, and they will only be paired in pairs.
"Thus the cooperation of their animals can be said to be all due to the impulse of lust, and without any other thoughts, on a whim, it passes quickly, and then a year is fine.
"And what you did before was to learn from the beasts, forgetting that you are man, the crown of creation of the Creator.
"Because I don't have a high level of awareness of my own noble qualities, and I don't have any control, I do it arbitrarily, and I mess up.
"You know, people and animals are different!
"The lusts of men and women are very impulsive, and the lusts of young men are especially impulsive, not just for a moment and for a long time, but at any time of the year.
So if it's not controlled, those impulsive men and women will mess around.
"On the other hand, since they cooperate because of their erotic impulses, once they cooperate, the heat of their erotic impulses gradually decreases, and they inevitably become cold.
"At first, there were small contradictions, and then the contradictions became bigger and bigger, and over time, they even developed into disgust with each other.
"Don't you know that if the things of the world go too fast, they must retreat very quickly, and if they are combined too easily, they must be dispersed very easily.
"So that kind of free cooperation couple, there are many, many free divorces, don't you have a lot of understanding in this area, you have been the city lord for a hundred years, you should see it very clearly, right?"
Lao Lao Mai proudly puffed up his chest: "Of course! Brother, I have seen more joys and sorrows of young men and women than others! I will tell you a few of the most thrilling ...... I have seen with my own eyes."
Chen Baicao really wanted to hear it, after all, she was a woman, and her curiosity was also very strong, but this time was not right.
She's going to preside over big things!
If you have a lot of stories, I'll go back and interview you...... I guess some people like to hear it, but now let's get down to business, where are we?"
"Okay! Brother listens to my sister! ”
Chen Baicao said: "The most fundamental purpose of the cooperation between a man and a woman is to let the two of them organize an eternal family and enjoy eternal happiness.
"If a man and a woman often divorce after marriage, then where will the eternal family be organized and where will happiness be enjoyed?
"So, I came up with a way to communicate with the media, the medium means planning, and the concubine means discretion, you don't understand the meaning of these two words, and you don't understand the two words together, so you have to start from the beginning.
"Two men and women, if they are really going to get married, they hear or see that there is a person in a certain family who can be married or married, of course, they must be in addition to the three suits, and their gender is opposed.
"Then invite your relatives, friends or neighbors, always be old and virtuous, reliable people, to come out and be a matchmaker.
That is, first discuss whether these two people are worthy or not, what their age is, what their appearance is, what their temperament is, what their talents are, what their daily behavior is, and whatever else needs to be determined first.
"Everything has been decided, and then I will go to the other side and say that this action is communication, communication with the media.
Then, on the other hand, I also invited a matchmaker, and I also understood the basic situation of the other party in advance before I went to meet the matchmaker of the other party.
"The matchmakers of the two families officially met to exchange information with each other to see if they matched.
"To be able to achieve a marriage, you must meet the standards in terms of basic requirements in order to succeed, otherwise there is no need to talk about it.
"After the matchmaking of the two families has discussed and decided, everyone agrees, and then set a date for the marriage.
"The achievement of things, everything is said by the two matchmakers, so it is called a media concubine.
"According to this method, there are several advantages, and I don't bother to explain them to you one by one, so that you can tell your children and grandchildren.
"The first advantage is that it can avoid the stimulation of male and female lust......"
