Marriage in the Han Dynasty is actually quite interesting, it seems to be in a special era of transformation, connecting the past and the next, both the rules and regulations of later Confucianism that sounded very scary, and the kind of behavior similar to that of later free women.

Fei Qian felt that this contradictory phenomenon was very interesting.

Huang Yueying was busy wandering in front of Fei Qian, moving out the small things she had made during this period of time as if she were offering treasures, and she was not affected by the news of Pei's daughter in the slightest......

Before, Fei Qian was worried that Pei's daughter would make Huang Yueying sad, but now it seems that Huang Yueying does not have any special emotions, and it doesn't look like she is forcing herself to pretend that nothing happened.

In ancient times, when a big stick hit a picture, it was not only the privilege of men to drag it into the cave, but also those big hands and big feet who were five big and three thick, and they also had the same thoughts and actions when they saw Xiao Xianrou. Speaking of which, if the people of later generations really wore to the primitive society, the white little fresh meat, smooth and hairless, at least compared to the aborigines, there must be a lot less body hair, tsk, the primitive bigfoot woman who is used to eating heavy tastes must want to try it......

So what about the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it was relatively better, and there were still women who were not out of the cabinet who could never bear to climb the men's wall in later generations, even though it was possible that Song Yu was putting gold on his face, but after he said it at that time, there was no uproar to denounce these women who were shameless in the eyes of later Confucians, which is very revealing.

At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, there were still many women who were quite free, and the concept of chastity was relatively weak, and it was not like the Confucian requirements of later generations, even if they were looked at by strange men, they had to cut off the belt to preserve their chastity......

Of course, the poor ghosts and untouchables can only choose to cut themselves, while the rich and powerful can choose to cut others.

Tang Dynasty, hehe, women's freedom is a return to the light before death, and then it was covered in a coffin and nailed with seventy or eighty nails.

So the current Han Dynasty, in terms of female constraints, seems to be in a period of development and change, there are such requirements, but it is not very strong, at least Fei Qian knows that the matter of divorce, in the Han Dynasty is not like those Confucianism rampant in later generations, only men have the right, women can also be unhappy on the "Hugh husband", such as the husband's poverty, suffering from a serious disease, bad conduct, acute emotional contradictions, etc., the Han Dynasty should be called "begging" or "separation".

For example, Lao Cao, who was tragically kicked. Fei Qian even wondered a little maliciously, is it because of this that Lao Cao especially likes to play the role of Lao Wang......

In the Han Dynasty, most of the golden slogans such as "saving heavenly principles and eliminating human desires", what "starvation to death is small, loss of discipline is big" and so on, in fact, most of them were the same as those of later generations, five stresses, four beauties and three loves, which belonged to the things that were brushed on the wall. Dong Zhongshu expressed his approval of the widow's remarriage, and even when Liu Wei drank wine, he had to give Tang Ji a special instruction, which showed that the matter of widows keeping festivals was not an ordinary thing in the Han Dynasty.

"......" Huang Yueying shook her hand in front of Fei Qian's eyes dissatisfiedly.

"Ah...... Sorry, thinking about something, what's wrong? Fei Qian came back to his senses and asked.

“…… Now, give it to ......" Huang Yueying's round eyes glared at Fei Qian, and then put a model in his hand into Fei Qian's hand, and said with a mutter, "This is the model of the latest ballista...... Well, what about me, I thought so, at the beginning, it was installed in the style of the carriage, but later I found that if I did this, the shaft was too easy to break, especially, so I removed the shaft later, and directly added a short shaft to the lower plate of the crossbow machine, and changed it to iron, which made it a lot more convenient, but it became a wheel that was easy to break......"

"Then I changed the hub and the car, all of them were replaced with iron, although this solved the previous problem, but a new problem appeared......" Huang Yueying muttered helplessly, her tiny fingers pointed at the ballista model, and she could faintly see one or two scratches on the delicate skin of her fingers that seemed to have been accidentally cut.

Fei Qian held Huang Yueying's little hand, which was constantly dotting back and forth, and then rubbed the back of Huang Yueying's delicate and lubricated hand and slightly rough finger belly with his fingers, and said, "Let me guess, hmm...... Because it's too heavy? ”

Huang Yueying nodded, and said a little helplessly: "That's right! As a result, many of the original wooden components were replaced with iron ones, which were indeed more durable, but also much heavier...... Another point is that once it breaks, it is more difficult to repair it on the battlefield or on the road......"

"Well, that's a question...... Fei Qian also nodded, thinking about it.

As Huang Yueying said, the ancients may not have known that replacing those wooden structures with metal materials will increase the durability of the equipment, but in the same way, if the parts are damaged during transportation or in battle, unless there are additional parts to replace, it is really not as convenient as wood, at least the wood is easier to process temporarily, and the metal material must have a stove and a hammer or something......

The hand was held by Fei Qian, Huang Yueying gradually stopped talking, her face was a little red, although she was already a husband and wife, but she was openly intimate in public, which was still a very shy thing for Huang Yueying, and she was reluctant to break free of Fei Qian's hand, so she glared at the attendant slave or something on the side, just like a little milk cat blowing her beard with her teeth and claws, indicating that she was super fierce and stood far away for me.

However, the attendants and slaves are very eye-catching, after all, no matter how small the cat is, they are also cats, and they are just insects, at most rats, so they all silently lowered their heads and quietly retreated.

"So, can you try to use two axles and four wheels to distribute the weight?" Fei Qian turned the ballista model upside down and looked at it, pointed to the bottom and said, "It seems that this one can also be changed...... You can try to get an iron bearing, well, but the iron is still too easy to rust, why not change the copper? ”

Fei Qian pondered while talking to Huang Yueying. This made Huang Yueying very happy, her big eyes narrowed into a line, looking at Fei Qian, the smile on her face couldn't be hidden. In Huang Yueying's heart, I am afraid that only Fei Qian will discuss these things she likes with her, and most of the other scholars are scoffing, even Pang Shiyuan, who grew up together since childhood, will shake his head when he talks about this.

"Huh? What's wrong? Fei Qian asked.

Huang Yueying hurriedly shook her head and said, "It's okay, it's okay......"

"That's right," Fei Qian thought of something, looked at Huang Yueying and said, "I just listened to Senior Sister Cai's rumors before, but you were crying, and now you want a Pei girl, so how do I feel that you don't seem to care too much?" ”

Huang Yueying frowned, stared at Fei Qian with round eyes, and said seriously: "That...... Mo Fei Langjun, do you also like Pei's girl? ”

"Like?" Fei Qian shook his head and said, "I've never seen it, how can I like it, it's just a transaction, and Pei's daughter is also a poor person......

Huang Yueying exhaled, puffed out her cheeks, and said, "What's so pitiful about this...... Isn't it all like that? ”

Fei Qian was stunned for a moment, then nodded slowly and said, "Well, that's what I said." ”

As long as it is in a patriarchal society, the more high-level women are, the less likely they are to be able to fall in love and marry independently, and they often have to take some political or economic factors, which may be considered pitiful in the eyes of others, but in fact they are not.

As the enjoyer of the family's wealth and power, if you don't want to pay as long as you get it, you will often be abandoned by the whole family, and use marriage as an exchange, which is actually a kind of transaction, not to mention any pity or pity.

This is the case with Pei's daughter.

"Oh, I kind of understand...... Fei Qian held Huang Yueying's hand and said with a smile, "Because it's not what I like, you don't care, do you?" ”

Huang Yueying immediately held her mouth, lowered her head, and muttered, "Lang Jun really still likes Senior Sister Cai's ......"

What kind of logic is this!

Fei Qian was speechless.

Huang Yueying secretly glanced at Fei Qian, opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say, and her big eyes were foggy again......

Fei Qian suddenly understood the contrast between Huang Yueying.

Pei's daughter, who has never even met once, is at most just a concubine for Huang Yueying, and she does not regard it as a person or a woman, but more like a tool that can make her husband have many children and grandchildren. It's like a later wife who found a wonderful picture album hidden by her husband, a folder hidden in the hard drive, or an inflatable doll, although it is a little uncomfortable, but it is not enough to feel like the sky is about to fall when she wants to jump up and make a noise.

But Cai Yan is like a real person to Huang Yueying, although Fei Qian didn't do anything, but Huang Yueying really felt a threat to herself.

Fei Qian smiled, then rubbed Huang Yueying's head, and said softly: "Silly girl, what are you worried about, you are my wife, always." ”

"Really?" Huang Yueying's eyes widened, her eyes were full of expectation, like a puppy that heard that it was going out for a walk, wagging its tail, as if the joy in her heart would burst out in the next second.

"Really!" Fei Qian nodded and said.

"Woo woo woo...... Huang Yueying couldn't help it, threw herself into Fei Qian's arms, threw herself on Fei Qian's chest, and cried.

"Ahh......h......h

The servants and maidservants waiting around the lobby hurriedly shrank their heads to the ground, and almost held up a sign to indicate that they could not hear anything and saw nothing.

Huang Yueying jumped up with a "ahhhh

"It's okay, it's okay, just wipe it......" Fei Qian hurriedly grabbed Huang Yueying and said, "I still have something to say......

"......" Huang Yueying tilted her head and twisted her face to prevent Fei Qian from seeing the embarrassed appearance on her face, and suddenly said, "...... Well, as long as Senior Sister Cai agrees, I ...... I don't have a problem with that either......"

"What!" Fei was latent, and flicked a brain crash on Huang Yueying's head, and said, "Talking about business, what do you want!" ”

"Ahh Huang Yueying covered her forehead.

"Yesterday I said to Zijing that we would set up a ...... agricultural society," Fei Qian briefly recounted what he and Zao Yi said, and then said, "...... But if only the people who speak in the agricultural society preach agriculture, it is still not enough...... After all, the measurement scale of each county is different, even if the people who teach the agricultural society teach the specific method, if the measurement is different, there will also be problems, so I want the Huang family to come up with some people, to be a labor club, and together with the agricultural society, where the people of agriculture go, you will also go there, and the unified measurement, so that there will be no deviation......"

Huang Yueying was attracted, tilted her head and thought for a while, and said: "Actually, it's not a big problem, because each county has a measurement, and the deviation is just a little......

"That's right, but the problem is that I need to solve more than just the problem of measurement......" Fei Qian smiled, lowered his voice, and muttered something in Huang Yueying's ear.

Huang Yueying's eyes widened suddenly, and she looked at Fei Qian in disbelief.

Fei Qian nodded and continued to whisper, "...... People who study agriculture must be proficient in agriculture, but for some other things, they must be proficient in engineering, so you must take the lead in doing this thing...... How, can it be done? ”

Huang Yueying pointed at herself, and said with some hesitation: "Willing, naturally willing...... But how do I do it? ”

Fei Qian smiled, mentioned it and said, "Don't you have the order of the elders of the Mo family...... "The Huang family and the people of the Mo family will temporarily build the entire surveying and mapping structure, and then slowly supplement and improve it later.

The point is that geography is too neglected in this era, and an atlas can be drawn like a landscape painting, which can only be used as a general judgment basis, and what can the rest be used for?

What is the surrounding geography, can you run horses, is there any military village, garrison geometry, these things that need to be surveyed and mapped, agricultural officials who are proficient in agricultural affairs may not be able to understand, but the people of the Huang family and the Mo family are basically in this business, and there is a agricultural society as a cover on the surface, plus these princes in the Han Dynasty have not yet had the awareness of this, most of them will be exploited by Fei Qian......

Think about it, when the conflict does not happen, the Agricultural Society must be extremely popular, because no one will be unable to get along with the grain in their own fields, and once the contradiction is irreconcilable, when a battle occurs, their side already knows what the terrain of the mountains and rivers on the opposite side is, and how the soldiers are placed, which virtually has a huge advantage!

"That's right...... There is an elder's order...... "Huang Yueying's big round eyes gradually let out brilliance, as if she had found some fresh toy, and she couldn't even care about the faint tears on her face, "Let me think about it......"

The Han Dynasty also had a tradition of appointing female officials, including female teachers, female histories, and even female scholars, female imperial chiefs or something, so it was not a big rebellion for women to engage in some positions in the Han Dynasty, and Fei Qian was not at ease to hand over confidential affairs like this to other people, and only Huang Yueying was the most suitable after thinking about it.

As for the future......

Forget it, let's take care of the present for now.
