Chapter 140: A Paradoxical Feudal Ritual System
Chapter 140
Looking at Yang Shangjing's speechless appearance and asking the sky, Uncle Zhong was very strange, although this year was not a war-torn era, and it was not the time for "family letters to pay ten thousand dollars", but the transportation was underdeveloped, so when he received a family letter, how could it not be this kind of expression, right?
"Isn't it...... What happened at home? Uncle Zhong asked a little confused, although he thought left and right, he couldn't think of anything on Jian'an's side that the Yang family couldn't solve.
Yang Shangjing shook his head, sighed, and continued to look down, and said, "It's not a big deal, it's just that the adults ordered me a family business." β
Uncle Zhong raised his eyebrows, and said in his heart that in the past few days, you have tossed Zhiqin and Mingqi every day, don't want it, the old man can faintly hear the sound of humming and hi across the two houses, how can you really marry and still be like this? Could it be true that Yang Yixing had to be called over from Shuntian Mansion?
But Uncle Zhong is an old man after all, he rolled his eyes, and then said, "But I don't know which lady it is?" β
Yang Shangjing looked down, and replied with a bitter and bitter face: "Jian'an Yuan's family is also a scholarly family, an official family, just a ......."
"Isn't the young master afraid that the old master will help find a jealous woman to enter the door?" Uncle Zhong raised his eyebrows, feeling as if he had grasped the crux of the matter.
But after saying this, he himself shook his head: "Although the Jian'an Yuan family is also a hundred years of romance, but now compared with our Yang family, it is still not enough to see, the Yuan family daughter entered the Yang family, and she didn't dare to play any big woman's temper, and the three from the four virtues always have to be guarded, don't say that the young master wants to keep Zhiqin and Mingqi by his side, just want to collect dozens of teas into the house, and no one dares to say anything." β
Is Jian'an Yuan's bull awesome? Of course, it's awesome, the ancestors mentioned others are still far away, Yuan Shu Yuan Jizhong of the Southern Song Dynasty is called a person with both talent and learning, as a civil official, don't want to spray friends, as a historian, he created the end of the chronicle, what later generations read "Ming History Chronicle" and the like, they have to accept his kindness, and Shilin Dao'er, with fame, naturally have friends, it is not an exaggeration to say that after the famous family of Jian'an Yuan, it is not an exaggeration, and there are many friends.
However, there are always peaks and valleys in the family, and when Yang Rong stopped Ming Chengzu's horse in Nanjing City, the Yang family began to rise, and threw the Yuan family out dozens of streets as soon as he slipped through the smoke, so Uncle Zhong said that Yang Shangjing should rest assured to find Xiaosan, and don't do anything other housewife, it's no problem to hug the family, that's really no problem, and Yang Shangjing estimated that this is the Yuan family thinking about climbing high, looking for someone to say a few words to their father, and this is what happened.
Even if he himself is just a magistrate who has been demoted out of Beijing, as long as Yang Rong's protΓ©gΓ© in the court does not die for a day, the influence of the Yang family in Jian'an Mansion will not be weakened too much.
But is this a question of looking for a junior or not? I just don't have the unique fetish of pedophilia, and the thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl lies down on the bed on the first floor in her arms.
However, Yang Shangjing can't say it directly, there is no slogan of late marriage, late childbearing, less birth, and eugenics in these years, and it is a legend to have fewer children and many trees, marrying at the age of twelve or thirteen, and giving birth to children at the age of fourteen or fifteen is the norm, the Guanyin maid who is not explained in the former Tang Dynasty was only twelve or thirteen years old when she married Li Shimin, and she was only eighteen or nineteen years old when she gave birth to Li Chengqian, this is still because the Li family had all kinds of delays before, as for ordinary small households, you marry in and don't have children, what is the difference between that and a chicken that doesn't lay eggs?
"It's okay...... Fortunately, it's just that the eight characters match, and the dowry hasn't been directly ordered, it seems that there is still room for redemption......" After reading this paragraph, Yang Shangjing had a little happiness on his face, and turned his head to Uncle Zhong and said: "It's just that it's inconvenient to get married, and now that I am in Huangyan County, although I am not too far from home, I can't leave my post without permission." β
Uncle Zhong smiled, with a disapproving expression: "Weddings and funerals are important human affairs, and no one will get in the way." β
After a pause, Uncle Zhong's face finally had some positive color: "Everything was complicated the day before yesterday, but the old servant forgot one thing, so he brought it up today and gave it a right to admonish." The young master is young, and it is normal for people to like women, but there is one point, please pay more attention to the young master. β
Yang Shangjing raised his eyebrows and looked at Uncle Zhong, a little puzzled.
I heard Uncle Zhong accentuate his tone: "It is taboo to have a child out of wedlock." β
When Yang Shangjing heard this, he shuddered, this Nima ...... Uncle Zhong didn't remind him that he almost forgot, the ancient scholars were not able to have concubines, but because most of them got married early, they basically had concubines after giving birth to children in the main room, Yang Jian, who was delayed by the imperial examination in the early years, and later delayed because of the funeral, and the "Diamond King Lao Wu" who was not married in his twenties can be said to be very rare.
And this kind of diamond king Lao Wu had children out of wedlock...... If there is one, it can be sprayed by the officials and can't take care of themselves, this is a feudal etiquette, there is no use in saying anything, even if Yang Rong is alive, he can't stop the mouths of the people, not to mention that there are still a group of Yanguan who have taken refuge in Wang Zhen and are staring at him secretly, just waiting to give him a knife.
But then again, now there is no Durex and no Jieshibang in this year, and Okamoto has no shadow, after all, don't care about the bottom and upper classes, they are all thinking about having more children and more blessings, and those big families are directly eager to add new children every day for 365 days a year, there is no demand, where will there be any creation? Not to mention that the level of material science is not up to par, and you can't boil a qualified colloid, even if you boil it out, it's useless, so ......
"Could it be that I want to use sheep intestines? Air bladder? Yang Shangjing's head was a black line, and he understood that it was risky not to bring some safety supplies, just a little, so he changed the topic and said directly: "Jian knows this in his heart, and Jian is worried now, but it's because this Yuan lady is too young......
Uncle Zhong paused for a moment, he didn't expect his young master to like the elderly, he shook his head, and his face was strange: "If you are right with our Jian'an Yang family, you can't find an unmarried virgin in the past two years, if the young master wants to marry a widowed woman, I am afraid that the etiquette will not be compatible." β
There were more black lines on Yang Shangjing's head in an instant, the Ming Dynasty's science was about "starving to death is a small matter, and losing a festival is a big thing", completely anti-human, the folk pick up a wall to do something or something, and those who encounter good things have to be immersed in the pig cage, this Nimasas doctor marries a widow, it is not a matter of being sprayed half-body.
"Damn...... Sleeping with a watery poplar is called a romantic affair, and helping her redeem herself is a beautiful talk, but Nima marrying a widow from a good family is morally corrupt. Yang Shangjing's hand holding the letter trembled a little, "Why didn't these people who engaged in feudal etiquette go out and were hit by a car and died?" β
