Chapter 250: Male 3 Female 7
As soon as they returned to the village, Wang Zhuo and they received the most grand welcome, you must know that Wang Zhuo not only helped the village win huge benefits at once, but also arranged for them to continue long-term and stable work, which is of great significance to Taoyuan people.
So as soon as he returned to the village, Meng Mingliang arranged manpower, slaughtered pigs and sheep, and prepared a sumptuous flowing water banquet, which was attended by the whole village, which was more sumptuous than the most extravagant wedding in the village.
The grandeur of the meal can be seen in the way the toast is made. Every time they toast, they are four big girls or little daughters-in-law of the same age, they drink it all, but Wang Zhuo and they can drink it in moderation, but the men don't come to toast, which is a peculiar custom.
It wasn't until after the dinner that Meng Mingliang, who had drunk too much, opened his tongue and revealed the secret to Wang Zhuo.
It turns out that in the customs of Taoyuan Village a long time ago, when entertaining guests who were kind to the village, it was this way of toasting, if the guests fancied a woman, they could have a toast with that woman alone, and the woman would bring her own pillow to the guest's residence that night. If, after that night, the guest feels like the woman, he leaves the pillow at the door, and the woman's family will take the pillow.
"Uh-" Wang Zhuo was dumbfounded after hearing this.
"But I haven't done that since the founding of the country." Meng Mingliang said with a smile: "My grandfather said that there used to be a general who suppressed bandits, and he chose four women in one night, and took them all away the next day, and one of them was my grandmother's sister-in-law." ”
I'll it! Wang Zhuo suddenly recalled the big girls and little daughters-in-law who took turns to toast just now, the water and soil of Taoyuan raised people, the village was full of handsome guys and beauties, all of them were white and tender, and their bodies were also full, if he was the general who suppressed the bandits, I am afraid that he would choose more than him!
He was thinking about it here, but Meng Mingliang didn't pay attention to it, and continued to smile drunkly.
"Your grandmother's sister-in-law was also picked up?" Wang Zhuo suddenly found a question: "Then what about your grandmother's brother?" ”
After listening to Wang Zhuo's words, Meng Mingliang suddenly laughed, Wang Zhuo who was laughing was a little clueless, and he didn't know what he was laughing at.
"Didn't you notice?" After Meng Mingliang laughed, he lowered his voice a little and said mysteriously: "There are many women in Taoyuan Village, but there are few men!" ”
Wang Zhuo was stunned for a moment, nodded thoughtfully, and said, "It seems to be a little." ”
"So!" Meng Mingliang chuckled and said: "My wife is going to leave, he can marry another one, there are no women yet!" ”
This time, Wang Zhuo completely understood: "You mean, the birth rate of Taoyuan Village is abnormal, there are fewer men and more women?" ”
"Yes, yes, that's it." Meng Mingliang waved his big hand: "Take me as an example, the eldest is a daughter, the second is a daughter, I named her a son, the third is still a daughter, and I named her a younger brother, and later Teacher Sun said that there were too many girls with the same name in the village, so they were changed to Sheng Nan and Sheng Di." I want to have another son, but unfortunately my wife won't lay eggs! ”
Wang Zhuo nodded with a smile, there are indeed many women in the village called giving birth to men and brothers, and he has heard it many times.
At this time, there were three people sitting under the big tree in the backyard enjoying the shade, in addition to Wang Zhuo and Meng Mingliang, there was also a Lu Weimin who had been drinking tea and did not speak, hearing this, he finally couldn't help but speak.
"Village Chief Meng, then according to what you say, shouldn't there be many single women in the village?"
Meng Mingliang smiled meaningfully, and deliberately took a sip of tea slowly, and only after whetting the appetite of the two of them did he reveal another secret of Taoyuan Village.
"The ratio of male to female births in the village is about three to seven. So many men have more than one wife, it's just that people outside don't know about it......"
As soon as the gossip came out, it was really earth-shattering! Wang Zhuo almost squirted out the tea in his mouth, and said in his heart that he was still working hard for the dream of three wives and four concubines, but almost all the men in Taoyuan Village had realized it, and there would be such a ridiculous thing!
"Look, I'll tell you a chatter." Meng Mingliang began to count the capable people in the village: "Meng Guang and Meng Laosan at the east entrance of the village, the first wife fell ill and died, and now the second one in the house is the second, and there are two more outside. He Qiu in the back alley, there are two sisters in the house, and there is a small one outside, who is only eighteen ...... this year."
"Wait," Wang Zhuo hurriedly interjected: "I know He Qiu, isn't he in his forties?" There are already two in the family, how can you find another eighteen? ”
"So what?" Meng Mingliang said with a smile: "Taoyuan lacks men, the eighteenth one is a fat girl, and it is not easy to marry." Besides, He Qiu has good craftsmanship and is willing to work. ”
Wang Zhuo was speechless, no wonder Taoyuan Village of 300 people only had a team of more than 20 people, it turned out that there were relatively few young and strong men in the village!
"Is this a common phenomenon?" Lu Weimin asked.
"Yes." Meng Mingliang sighed a little depressedly: "If I hadn't been the head of this village, I would have raised another family outside a long time ago and gave birth to a son." ”
Wang Zhuo smiled bitterly and comforted: "Brother Meng's contribution to the village is in everyone's heart. ”
"That's true." Meng Mingliang nodded approvingly.
Lu Weimin said slowly: "No wonder Taoyuan Village used to have the custom of sending women, it turned out that there were too many women, and it would be a waste not to send them out and stay in the village." ”
Meng Mingliang snorted and said with a smile: "That's why my grandfather said, after the bandit general took my grandmother's sister-in-law away, my grandmother's brother happily married another wife and continued to live." ”
Wang Zhuo scratched his head and said, "Then what would happen if I had a toast with a woman alone today?" ”
Lu Weimin suddenly burst out with a sigh of joy, and he just wanted to ask this question!
Meng Mingliang smiled: "If it's a big girl, you have to take it away after you sleep." As for the little daughter-in-law, it's okay to sleep all night, but if you want to take it away, you have to get someone's consent. ”
"It's no wonder that when I was eating just now, I felt that some men looked at me a little strangely." Wang Zhuo smiled bitterly: "I dare to love because I am afraid that I will sleep with his wife, where is this." ”
Lu Weimin looked at Wang Zhuo narrowly, although he didn't know the deep inside story about the relationship between Wang Zhuo and Qi Fei and Guan Yingying, he also had a rough judgment, knowing that if Wang Zhuo was looking for flowers and asking Liu outside, the two of them would definitely not let him go.
"But I think it won't be a few years before this custom disappears." Wang Zhuo Zhengse said: "After the road is repaired, the opportunity to contact with the outside world will be greatly increased, and in the future, Taoyuan women can marry out, and men outside can also settle down here, and the history of Taoyuan's lack of men will soon be rewritten." ”
"That makes sense," Lu Weimin joked, "If Village Chief Meng wants to have a son, he has to hurry up now." ”
The three of them laughed together, and after a long time, Meng Mingliang said with some emotion: "It seems that Taoyuan Village is about to change a lot, and the outside world is too big." ”
…… The night in Taoyuan Village was as lively as Wang Zhuo imagined, like the New Year, filled with a joyful atmosphere.
After the electricity was connected, the county transportation bureau allocated funds to the village to build ten street lamps, and a young man named Hegen went to the city a few times, bought a cheap motorcycle and came back, and opened a small dealership in the village.
Tonight, He Gen took out a new CD, which was actually a collection of tertiary films, and men, women, and children sat around, commenting, and watching with relish...... When Guan Yingying and Qi Fei walked into the small courtyard with their front and back feet, the scene of Ye Yuqing taking a bath in the bathroom was being broadcast on the thirty-seven-inch TV screen.
The hot springs in Taoyuan Village are mixed baths for men, women and children, so it is really not uncommon for them to watch the footage of the actress [***], sometimes they fight in the hot springs, and it is common for the little uncle to be grabbed by his sister-in-law on the third leg, and the folk customs are like this, and it has nothing to do with pornography.
But Qi Fei and Guan Yingying are from big cities, how have they seen this? So the half-grown boy shouted out in his voice, and the two of them immediately blushed.
I wanted to visit the small dealership in the village, but I didn't need to look at it this time. The two of them walked out of the small courtyard in a daze, you look at me, I look at you, and they all laughed out loud.
After a long time, Qi Feicai said with a smile and a smile: "Gather people to watch pornographic films, and no one cares." ”
Guan Yingying is full of understanding: "When it comes to new things, there must always be a process of acceptance." ”
As soon as the words fell, several six or seven-year-old hairy children ran out of the yard, one of them with a big balloon in his hand, rushed past the two of them with cheers, and ran towards the mouth of an alley.
"Huh?" Guan Yingying turned her head to look at the group of children, and suddenly became happy again, and stretched out her hand to point: "Sister Qi Fei, what do you see in their hands?" ”
Qi Fei looked in the direction of her finger, a little girl with a snot was holding a large transparent balloon in her hand, blowing up, the whole was the narrow and long type of winter melon, and there was a pacifier-shaped protrusion at the top, which was fluffy when it hit other children, and it looked very good.
What kind of balloon is it, it's clearly a blown condom?
This time Qi Fei was completely speechless, it seems that Guan Yingying is right, Taoyuan people really need a process of acceptance of things in the outside world.
At the same time, Wang Zhuo just went to the toilet, and by the way, he checked the wound on his middle leg, and the cortex around the blood scab had begun to stratify, and the adhesion part had also been separated and was about to fall off. In this way, it seems that going to the hot springs does not matter, the only problem is that the new skin exposed after the scab is light pink, and if you pay attention, you can see it at a glance, so when he and Qi Fei have been warm recently, they can only turn off the lights at night......
