Chapter 931: Prenuptial Agreements
Merton, who was on the stage, continued: "Of course, in the Book of Songs, there is also unswerving love until death: death and life are broad, talking with Zicheng, holding the hand of the son, and accompanying the son; Vote for me with papaya, and repay it with Qiongju. Bandit retribution, always think it is good; Summer days, winter nights. After the age of 100, he returns to his home. ”
There is also the Han Dynasty's "Upper Evil": the mountains are edgeless, the heaven and the earth are together, and they dare to be with the king. In addition to love, there is also loyalty in marriage, if you can't even be loyal to your own love, how to be loyal to the Mo family, how to be loyal to the country. ”
Merton's loyalty theory can't help but make a group of old people of the Mo family bow down again and again, and it is because of these excellent qualities that the Mojia Village has been passed down to this day.
"In addition, Mojia Village will issue a new household marriage village rule, and men and women will have the same obligations except for monogamy."
"Husbands and wives have equal status in the family, have the right to use their own names, and have the freedom to live, study and work. There is an obligation to give birth and an obligation to support each other. There is a right to inherit from each other. ”
…………………………
Merton loudly announced the household marriage law drafted by Han Zheng, and had to admit that Han Zheng was indeed a rare legal talent, and the household marriage law he drafted overnight was almost the same as the marriage law of later generations.
"Husbands and wives are equal! Brother Mo actually integrated the concept of love into marriage. Li Yun looked up in surprise.
"The idea is good, but it sounds good, and it is one thing to do it, and it is probably just empty talk!" Tian Yu shook his head and said.
"Before that, men and women had to marry at the behest of their parents, but with the efforts of Ben Hou, and the willingness of both parties, this is the day when you are free to pursue love." Merton looked around.
This point Merton can be very sought after by the younger generation, after all, everyone is young and vigorous, and naturally they are not willing to be arranged by their parents, especially men.
"Today, with the promulgation of the new village rules, I want to add another article after the words of the parents and the matchmaker are consensual, and the freedom of separation." Merton's voice was like a thunderclap, which immediately stunned the audience.
"Freedom of harmony."
Divorce is the divorce of later generations, which is a common behavior in later generations, is extremely rare in Datang, once a woman is divorced or divorced, it will be regarded as a great shame, there is a saying in later generations that only widowed, no divorce, this sentence may be a threat in later generations, but it is the truest portrayal in Datang.
The women who have been evicted from their homes are called abandoned women, and they will be displaced, and even their families will not be able to raise their heads, so some women will still endure silently and are unwilling to leave even if they have suffered humiliation and abuse.
"It's nonsense!" Some of the Confucian people who were listening were furious.
You must know that in this era, it is believed that it is better to demolish ten temples than to break up a marriage, and Merton advocates freedom and divorce, but I don't know how many marriages have been dismantled, before this, everyone may think that Merton's new rules are to protect calves, why defend the Mo family's women, but they didn't expect to put forward such an outrageous suggestion.
Suddenly, even everyone in Mojia Village looked at Merton in disbelief, especially Han Zheng was even more suspicious, the fairest household marriage law he wrote did not have the paragraph of freedom of divorce.
Looking at everyone's expressions, Merton explained: "Since husband and wife are equal, the husband has the right to divorce his wife, and the wife naturally has the right to ask for reconciliation and divorce. Rather, once both men and women commit acts contrary to monogamy, both men and women can propose and divorce; Or the husband and wife have incompatible personalities and their relationship is broken, and it is really difficult to continue their lives, and they can propose to reconcile and divorce after two years. ”
Han Zheng suddenly realized that Merton's so-called freedom of reconciliation and separation is a supplement to monogamy, otherwise it is also a pain for two people with incompatible personalities and mutual hatred to spend their lives, or a punishment for the man's cheating.
"At the time of reconciliation and separation, the premarital property of both men and women shall be taken away, and the income of both men and women after marriage shall be divided equally, and the children born and adopted shall be raised by one person in half, or one party shall pay maintenance until the children reach adulthood, and after the reconciliation and divorce, individuals may seek their own happiness and pursue their own love again." Merton added.
The dowry of the daughter of the Mo family is very rich, and Mo Dun directly defined this dowry as premarital property, which also gave the Mo family women confidence, as for raising children, the annual dividends of a Mo family woman's identity are enough to bear, which allows the Mo family women to avoid unfair treatment after marriage.
The women of Mojia Village couldn't help but be moved, in this era when the status of women was extremely low, Merton could be said to have ensured their interests to the greatest extent.
However, many Guanzhong Liangjiazi's faces changed, which was simply a humiliation for men who were generally male supremacy.
Among the women of the Mo family, the eldest girl, is not called Zihan now! Seeing this, he immediately cried bitterly, among the men who left the table, one of them had fallen in love with him at first sight, and agreed to get married after the New Year, and this man swore an oath on weekdays, but took the initiative to leave, obviously unwilling to abide by the rules of monogamy in the Mo family, and it was obvious that he was deceived by him on weekdays.
Ziyi couldn't help but scolded: "What are you crying for, recognizing his face now is much better than exposing it after marriage in the future, and at that time, you won't even have a chance to cry." ”
"But Zhang Lang, why is he so ruthless!"
Ziyi, as Morton's maid on weekdays, has a high prestige among the daughters of the Mo family, and the eldest girl immediately put away her tears, although she still couldn't help sobbing, but she also understood that what Ziyi said was the truth.
"It's that the children of the Mo family dare to love and hate, and if the butcher Zhang dies, we won't eat hairy pigs." Erhua persuaded.
"It's just that they don't even want to abide by the rules of monogamy, but it is conceivable that they came to Mojia Village for the glory and wealth of the Mo family, where is it for what innocent love! Since he enjoys such good conditions of the Mo family, and is unwilling to abide by the rules set by the Mo family, how can there be such a good thing in the world. Gongsun Yue on the side said.
Gongsun Yue couldn't help but look at this group of girls with envy, they are the happiest women in the world, born in Mojia Village, and Moton will take care of everything for them.
The girls' minds are naturally simple, but Han Zheng on the rostrum frowned, and the household marriage law added by Morton is more rigorous and complete, but he knows that such a reasonable, well-founded and legally sound and fair law can only be effective in Mojia Village.
If you leave Mojia Village, then Datang Law doesn't recognize it at all, which means that if you make trouble with the government, the fate of the Mo family woman will not be much better than other women.
He didn't know what the solution Merton was talking about? Could it be based on the wealth and fame of the Mo family? It is also the identity of the Marquis of Merton and the influence of Princess Changle.
Listening to Xi Tianyu, he looked coldly at the good family with different expressions around him, he has been experienced for a long time, so he naturally saw through their inner entanglements one by one, and naturally saw the dissatisfaction and disguise in the hearts of many men.
Indeed, parents in the world, which one of them doesn't want their daughters to marry well and be happy for a lifetime, but just like in the Book of Songs, most of the beautiful love ends in tragedy, and it has become the norm for men to marry wives and concubines.
Merton looked at the expressions of the good family in his eyes one by one, and said with a slight smile: "I know that you don't agree with my point of view and think that this is discrimination against you, but this village rule is not only obeyed by you, the women of Mojia Village also abide by it, and even the men of Mojia Village also need to abide by it."
A group of Mo men couldn't help but proudly listen to their chests, the men of the Mo family have adhered to monogamy for thousands of years, which is recognized by the world.
"But to tell the truth, this village rule is only implemented in Mojia Village, I'm afraid no one will recognize it when you leave Mojia Village, Ben Hou is going to the government, and you can't help anything if you go to sue the emperor?" Merton threw another thump.
Everyone was surprised, and they didn't understand why Merton gave out all his hole cards.
Merton smiled slyly: "So in order to show fairness and make this love seem more pure, this monkey thinks it is necessary to take another insurance policy for love." ”
Han Zheng Huo Ran raised his head and couldn't help but listen, could it be that this was Merton's solution.
"That's a prenuptial agreement."
Mo Dun said loudly, since the household marriage village rules of Mojia Village are not any by the Tang Law, then let this promise be signed in black and white, and such an agreement will naturally be protected by the Tang Law.
