Chapter 257: Free or Not
Yuan Niang sighed and said to Gu Xinyu, "Isn't it because of you Mama Wang?" ”
Mama Wang, Gu Xinyu asked curiously, "What's wrong with Mama Wang?" Did Silent provoke you in the villa? ”
Yuan Niang glanced at Gu Xinyu: "What are you guessing?" It's Xiao Tao, didn't you say that you ordered him a family business some time ago? The two families also looked at each other, and they were very satisfied with each other, but they did not make an official decision. ”
Yuan Niang sighed again, her expression was a little displeased: "A few days ago, I brought a letter, saying that the other party disagreed, the matchmaker said, their parents said, their daughter is sensible and filial, they don't want their daughter to marry a person who sells herself into slavery, even if the place where she sells herself is the Guogong Mansion, or the Si Nong Shilang Mansion, they don't value these things, they just want their daughter to marry one, the upright and innocent Zhou Dynasty people, and then have children, they don't seek to be rich and noble, Just want to straighten your waist and be a man"
Yuan Niang was even more unhappy when she said this, she said to Gu Xinyu: "This family really doesn't know what to do, it has always been a third-grade official in front of the prime minister, just say Uncle Wang, whether it is in the Guogong Mansion or in the Si Nong Shilang Mansion, he is a person with face, who dares not to take Uncle Wang seriously outside?" Why sell yourself into slavery? That's not something anyone can do, and Uncle Wang is now the general manager of Taoyuan Villa, who sees that he doesn't nod his head, not to mention anything else, it is the county order of each county, and he will say hello when he sees you Uncle Wang, not to mention that Xiaotao's child is not only good-looking, but also has a good temperament, and he is also the one who picks the beam with the caravan, and. According to me, the Wang family's property is more than that of the rich families in Rongcheng. ”
Gu Xinyu nodded, it is true, Uncle Wang is now a famous figure, no matter where he goes, he is very good at talking and doing things, and Uncle Wang's family can do it, plus he will never give up in difficult times, Gu Xinyu has always been generous to their family, Yuan Niang's words are still conservative, and the assets of Uncle Wang's family are not comparable to the average rich family in Rongcheng.
But Gu Xinyu felt it again. The family was right. And she appreciates the idea.
Gu Xinyu feels that they have a lot of backbone in doing this, and many times freedom is a very important thing, just like why there is that sentence. There is no freedom rather than death. The principle is the same.
Originally, as Gu Xinyu. For this business, deep down in her heart, she didn't approve of it, but there was no way. This dynasty is like this, and now Gu Xinyu has a lot of people who buy it, they are also doing very well in the villa, and they are very happy to live, and they never feel sad and painful because they feel that they are subordinates, because in their opinion, Taoyuan Villa is a place that can give them shelter from the wind and rain to live a good life, and even some people take the initiative to find Uncle Wang and want to sell themselves in Taoyuan Villa, just to be able to eat and dress warmly, and have a backer
After all, people think differently, and this girl's parents and this girl are quite thoughtful and think about it in the long run, because they are innocent people, although they are not rich, but they can get by, and their son is also studying in the academy, and it is said that his grades are very good, and his future is also bright.
They really don't want their daughter to marry a subordinate, even if he is the son of the chief steward and the future steward. Even if he can get Gu Xinyu's attention, what can he do? No matter what, he can't get rid of his status as a subordinate, and in the Zhou Dynasty, for this kind of person who has no free identity, the children they gave birth to are also not free, and they are born as domestic slaves, also called family children, such as Xiao Tao is an example.
The most important point is that the Zhou Dynasty stipulated that men with such status were not allowed to participate in scientific examinations.
These may be reasons for the other party's concerns, and from the other party's point of view, there is nothing wrong with it.
Gu Xinyu looked at Yuan Niang very unhappy, and she also understood her mother's feelings, because her mother felt that it was normal for her to do this, because it had something to do with her living environment.
Gu Xinyu pushed Yuan Niang's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Mother, why are you so entangled? Actually, it's normal for people to think this way, after all, they have been good citizens of the Zhou Dynasty for generations, although their own daughter married Xiao Tao, it is also a happy marriage, but what about their future generations, they are still slaves, and they are not free, no matter how many sons they have, they have to be the next person to the villa, even if they are good and smart, even if they are prodigies, he can't go to the scientific examination, which is also very unfair to them, they think like this, you shouldn't blame them, people are like this, each has its own ideas, Standing from different angles, there are different considerations, and different positions, of course, they think differently. ”
Yuan Niang glanced at Gu Xinyu: "You have some big reason to prevaricate me every time, forget it, they have no chance, since people don't agree, then, so be it, I'm looking at Xiao Taoxiang to look at other people's families, there are too many people who want to marry the Wang family, and there are better than theirs."
Gu Xinyu shook his head gently: "Xiao Tao and He Lin are going out now, let's wait for him to come back and see each other, let's ask Xiao Tao's opinion, but I heard from Mama Wang and Uncle Wang that Xiao Tao is very, very satisfied with this girl." ”
Yuan Niang glared and asked Gu Xinyu: "People don't agree, what's the use of just Xiao Tao agreeing?" Can you still forcibly tie people to a sedan chair? ”
Gu Xinyu pouted: "Mother, how could you think like this, how could we do such a thing?" In fact, if you think about these things in another way, it's very simple, isn't it because Xiao Tao is a subordinate because they don't agree? In fact, I have long had an idea about this matter, but I didn't have time to tell you, I have actually always planned to return Xiao Tao's deed of sale to him, so that he can regain his free body, if Uncle Wang and Mama Wang also want to restore their free body, then give them their deed of sale, if they don't want to, forget it.
But Xiaotao, I must let him become a normal citizen of the Zhou Dynasty, so that he will have more room for development, and he will not be restricted, mother, let me tell you, it's not that if you buy her, she will be loyal to you for the rest of her life, didn't you watch the play and sing it in the book? There are many subordinates who collude with bad people to assassinate their masters.
In fact, many times in this world, it is based on interests, not how loyal he is, but because the price offered by the other party does not reach his satisfaction, of course, this varies from person to person, for example, these people around me, as well as the people around your mother, have a good character, they are very kind, and they are dedicated to us."
Gu Xinyu said this, a little thirsty, took a sip of tea, ignored Yuan Niang's white eyes, and continued to start flickering (to be continued. )
