"Old man, can you show me your feet?"

"This ......" Zhao Qi immediately jumped out, embarrassed.

"My son, it's okay, I'm so old, your father has already been in the ground, I will go to him soon, what else is there to scruple about, just let this girl take a look......"

Aunt Zhao didn't hesitate, with the help of Jin Lian, she crossed a pair of feet on the seat, Jin Lian helped her, and the aunt opened the hem of her pants by herself, revealing a pair of terrifying feet wearing bow shoes......

Wu Zhi looked over, and saw that the head of the old man's foot was pointed, as if it had been cut into something like that, and the proportions were extremely incongruous, no wonder it could be stuffed into the same strange pair of bow shoes......

"Auntie, I'll help you open this, is it okay?" Jin Lian asked.

"If I open it, I won't be able to get entangled in ...... anymore"

"It's okay, I have needlework here, I can help you wrap ......"

"Okay then."

It may be that it is a lifetime before someone finally pays attention to the matter of wrapping her little feet, and Aunt Zhao is also quite willing to cooperate, with a look of pride and loss on her face, and her emotions are a little complicated.

Ah, oh, silk, slow down, slow down......

The old man screamed in pain and commanded.

The two of them together, one for each person, Jin Lian took the needle and thread, first picked out the stitches on the footcloth, and then finally gave the two blue footcloths to Fei Kai layer by layer. Immediately, a pair of severely deformed feet appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

At this time, Wu Zhi knew why the old man's feet looked pointed in front, it turned out that except for the thumb, the other four toes of his feet were forcibly nested into the soles of his feet, clinging to the soles of his feet like a pimple, and became one, so that the entire soles of his feet were very deformed and distorted......

That is to say, when the old man usually walks, he steps directly on his four toes, so how can it not hurt, and how can his legs and feet be neat?

"Sister-in-law, can you take a second look at your feet?" Jin Lian asked Cheng Laohu's mother again.

"No, no, no!" Cheng Laohu's parents hurriedly waved their hands and tried their best to push.

"Sister-in-law, what about you?" Jin Lian asked Zhang Jin's wife again.

"Just kidding, how can a woman from a good family give a pair of golden lotuses to other people? No, no, absolutely not! Zhang Jin shook his head like a rattle.

"Zhang Jin, don't talk nonsense, what do you mean?"

"I don't mean anything......" Zhang Jin lowered his head and muttered in his mouth.

"You ......" Zhao Qi was upset and wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Jin Lian.

"Aunt Zhao, can you please tell me about the benefits of foot binding?"

"The advantage of foot binding is that small feet are beautiful, and women from poor families generally do not bind their feet because they have to travel, and only the daughters of rich families will wrap their feet...... They call the little feet of about four inches 'Silver Lotus', if they are larger than four inches, they are called 'Tie Lotus', little girl, don't look at your name is Jin Lian, my feet are also called Golden Lotus......

It turns out that people call the small feet less than four inches called the three-inch golden lotus, that kind of foot type, it is really an unattainable type, and it has to bear the huge pain that ordinary people can't bear......

There is a folk proverb: wrap a pair of small feet, shed a pot of tears!

What's more, the history of Chinese women's foot-binding can be described as a history of blood and tears, full of grievances and pathos......

"Old man, who are you talking about by 'they'?"

"They? Yes, it's the elders of the family, it's the man......"

"Thank you, old man!"

Jin Lian looked back at Wu Zhi first, the meaning was obvious, she was saying, look, is it the fault of the women's legs and feet, or is it a problem in your men's brains?

Originally, Wu Zhi had just guessed that the unsteady walking of these women might be related to foot binding, but he immediately erased this possibility in his heart. Just kidding, of course Wu Zhi has heard of the bad habit of foot binding, and he doesn't agree with it, but he didn't expect that foot binding would have such serious consequences, it would be so deformed and distorted, and it would cause so much pain and pressure to women's lives and psychology!

It's not that I didn't expect it, it's just that only when those monster-like feet were really placed in front of Wu Zhi did Wu Zhi really understand how disgusting this thing was!!

Those two feet have been completely tortured into a strange triangular shape, no longer their natural, instinctive appearance!

It's shocking to see!

Is this thing beautiful, is it really beautiful?

As a modern person, Wu Zhi really can't identify with it, and he can't experience it.

There's no reason for that!

What three-inch golden lotus, what incense hook, it's all!

What a strange taste it must be to have such a bite, just like the corset that was once popular in Westerners, how did it become too ......

At first, Wu Zhi thought that foot binding was a blind trick made up by those ignorant and backward diehards, and he was still wondering whether foot binding was the entertainment of the rich or the vulgarity of the poor......

It's no wonder that Bu Zhidao wants to say that Jin Lian is not a pair of small feet and scolds her for being inferior, but why don't these so-called middle and high people, Wu Zhi look down on them at all?

Before the Northern Song Dynasty, there was no custom of foot binding, at this time in the Song Dynasty Huizong period, it was the tail of the Northern Song Dynasty, the foot binding has gradually emerged, at first it was wrapped by the rich, and then slowly the old people of the poor family began to learn to wrap in order for their daughters to marry a good family......

After that, it was out of control!

Wu Zhinu: What happened to the men and women in this feudal society?

Not lightly ill!

I saw that Nabu Zhidao and Sister Li Gui saw that Jin Lian suddenly left the two of them, and thought that Jin Lian was afraid of them, so they came over and wanted to scold, but Jin Lian walked to the high ground of the hall again, sat on the cold ground, hung her feet underneath, and said:

"Don't bark two dogs! Squat on both sides, and I'll settle the account with you later!" ”

While talking, he crossed one leg, took off his shoes and socks, pulled off the footcloth, and revealed only a smooth and white footboard, compared to other women who bind their feet, they are considered big, about the size of a modern woman's shoes of thirty-seven or eight, but for Wu Zhi, it is just moderate, the foot board is slender and delicate, the arc is smooth and full, and the soles of the feet are full of natural pink, so good-looking!

"In order to cater to the bad taste of those stinky men, I have to wrap my feet, at least I don't do it!" Jin Lian raised her feet high, showed everyone present a clear understanding, and continued:

"They stink, but they want women to smell it, do you think that's reasonable?"
