Chapter 234: The Deal of Two Women
Dugu Daxue really caught Qin Jiarui's death hole, maybe she wouldn't care about her identity and other so-called wives and concubines, and even she could follow Shi Bufan without a name or a point. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoBecause even if she is not extraordinary, she will not be unable to survive, so there is no need for her to be a concubine. She can be a lover, and she can even give birth to Shi Bufan, but she will never be a concubine. But now he is facing a huge problem, that is, his children cannot enter Shi's house openly. Especially in ancient times, the so-called title was very important, and if Qin Jiarui was a concubine, then he could also get started as a concubine. But now she is neither a concubine, nor is she any other identity, so this is the most embarrassing. In ancient times, it was very strict for illegitimate children. Perhaps later generations thought that there was nothing wrong with having illegitimate children and children out of wedlock, and even looked down on them a lot. But in ancient times, this was absolutely unacceptable.
Maybe the concubine looks down on the concubine, but the status of the illegitimate child is far lower than that of the concubine. Qin Jiarui has to pay attention to this, she may not need any reputation, but she must pay attention to her children. As a mother, of course, she values her children very much, and it is impossible for a mother who does not care about her children, but Qin Jiarui is troublesome in this regard.
"Daxue, say whatever you want! I think you're going to find a way around that, don't you think? Shi Bufan took the initiative to say.
Shi Bufan already knew that Dugu Daxue proposed it at this time, and there must be a way to solve this problem. If Dugu Daxue had no way, he would not have taken the initiative to bring it up, so Shi Bufan must have known that there must be a way to solve this Dugu Daxue.
"Hehe, in fact, I have a solution, and that is the time when I came to adopt. When the time comes, I will adopt this hour, so that he will enter our house as an adopted son, and everything will not be a problem. As long as I am willing to adopt, then everything is not a problem, although it is not a concubine, but it is definitely the first person under the concubine, and the status is even higher than that of ordinary concubines. Dugu Daxue said.
Shi Bufan frowned, this Dugu Daxue actually said that he was willing to adopt, which is a good plan. If according to this patriarchal system in ancient times, if the wife is willing to adopt, it is not impossible. Many wives of large families may sometimes adopt children born to their husbands and other concubines, and even concubines often adopt each other. For example, after the death of Li Shimin's other concubines, Empress Changsun will also adopt some daughters born to other concubines, which can be regarded as raising them herself. And this kind of child adopted by the wife has a status between the concubine and the concubine, and the status is higher than that of the concubine, but lower than that of the concubine.
If Dugu Daxue is willing to adopt, then he can enter the Shi family as the adopted son of Shi Bufan and Dugu Daxue, that is, Shi Bufan's "stepson". Of course, this stepson is not the kind of stepfather and stepmother in later generations, and the ancient stepson means that it is a kind of adoptive relationship, not the kind of stepmother and stepfather. After the adoption, the surname is often changed, so it is generally passed on to each other within the same clan, and generally not passed on to outsiders. And Liu Bei's eldest son Liu Feng was actually originally surnamed Kou, but after becoming Liu Bei's stepson, he changed his surname to Liu. In ancient times, stepsons and parents and children actually had the same legal status. However, if there is a biological son-in-law, then the biological son-in-law can still be used as the first heir. However, if Dugu Daxue is willing to adopt, he will become Shi Bufan's stepson, and he can really be brought into the Shi family justifiably, and he can be regarded as the legal child of the Shi family.
So this method is good, and it can be regarded as a solution to various problems.
"Don't worry, I won't send her to you and take her away, you can continue to take him with you in the future, I'm just giving him a name. With this status, he can also live a normal life without worrying about anything else. Therefore, you should know that you may not care about the name, but you must give you and your husband's child a name, otherwise he will be in trouble in the future. Dugu Daxue said.
Qin Jiarui asked, "Are you so kind?" ”
"Miss Jiarui, you don't have to think of me so narrow-mindedly. In fact, there is no fundamental conflict between me and you, after all, there is a husband, and our relationship is not an absolute enemy. On the contrary, we have a lot to work with. For example, if you need your husband's protection in business, I can give you some protection. And I can now give your child a name, so that everything can be solved. Dugu Daxue said.
Qin Jiarui asked again: "Then what do you want?" ”
Shi Bufan looked at the two women, sitting quietly next to him and drinking tea, obviously not intending to meddle in the transaction between the two women. He knew that no matter how he mediated the relationship between them, they would not be able to have a good relationship, and being a stranger was actually the most reassuring for Shi Bufan. What Shi Bufan is most afraid of is that these two women are like sisters on the surface, but they don't know how to tear each other down behind the scenes! If these two women are strangers, this will reassure Shi Bufan to a certain extent, at least they will not secretly tear each other down.
Shi Bufan knew that everything he said at this time was in vain, and his brothers had a falling out, not to mention that their "sisters" were real sisters?
"Dugu Daxue is really not a fuel-efficient lamp, and it actually directly grabbed Qin Jiarui's death hole. Qin Jiarui's biggest concern at the moment is the status of his own child, and I have no way to solve it. If it is in the later life, in fact, everything is not a problem, because many capable women in the later generations will not even marry at all, and directly give birth to themselves or adopt one. But in ancient times, it was difficult! I have no way to challenge the patriarchal system at the moment, I can only compromise. Let them solve their own affairs, and I'd better not interfere. Shi Bufan thought.
Some people may think that Shi Bufan is incompetent, and he can't even handle his own woman's affairs well. But he's really not incompetent, he's just powerless. Because she is not alone in Dugu Daxue, Dugu Daxue represents the entire patriarchal system, and her identity as a wife is her biggest advantage in the patriarchal system. Therefore, Shi Bufan is not facing a simple "woman", if it is just a woman, then Bufan can be easily settled. But Shi Bufan is facing the entire ancient patriarchal system, and he is very powerless in front of this patriarchal system. Not to mention him, even Emperor Li Shimin is like this, in the face of this social moral ideological system that has been gradually improved over the years, Emperor Li Shimin has to compromise.
Without enough power and foundation to challenge this patriarchal system, saying that wives and concubines are equal, and what concubines are equal, there is no way to do this. If he dares to mess around, what awaits him is to be cleaned up. So Shi Bufan didn't interfere in the affairs of these two women, in fact, on the surface, it was just a matter of two women, but Shi Bufan didn't dare to interfere and was powerless to interfere. Dugu Daxue is not just a simple individual at this moment, but a social moral system, a person to block and change a moral system that has been formed for countless years, Shi Bufan has not died like this!
This is not that Shi Bufan is weak, but that Shi Bufan really feels the pressure, and how powerless a person is in front of the entire social moral system. This is not a matter of a man's face, Shi Bufan can't do anything in this regard, he can only "dump the pot" to these two women and let them solve it themselves. Anyway, these two women are not fuel-efficient lamps, they will not suffer from each other, Shi Bufan has no need to worry that they will suffer from each other, and there is no need to do anything to protect the weak.
However, Dugu Daxue is very good at this time, when Qin Jiarui just gave birth to a child, this time has already caused an established fact, so even if Dugu Daxue puts forward excessive conditions, then Qin Jiarui may have to agree, because Qin Jiarui has no way to choose.
"What do you want?" Qin Jiarui asked Dugu Daxue.
Obviously, Qin Jiarui's meaning is very obvious, Dugu Daxue proposed this solution, it can't be nothing. Don't look at this as just a name, it may not be very important in the eyes of later generations, but it was very important in ancient times, even more important than a lot of money. Qin Jiarui said this, in fact, he wanted to make a deal with Dugu Daxue, and Dugu Daxue promised to "adopt" the child, which gave Shichen a legal identity. Of course, the specific conditions can only be a transaction, and the two parties will reach their own terms and take what they need. In this process, on the contrary, the man was kicked out, because he had no way to fight against the entire patriarchal system, and he couldn't restrain too much in this regard. If Dugu Daxue disagreed, then Bufan would not be able to challenge this patriarchal system.
Of course, if it is an ordinary "virtuous" woman, not only will she not take care of it, but she will take the initiative to help her husband solve this problem. However, Shi Bufan knows very well that the word "virtuous" and Dugu Daxue are completely incompatible. Dugu Daxue is not a so-called "good wife and good mother", obviously she has served in the palace for a long time, and all she has seen is conspiracy and calculation, and she has long been out of the style of "good wife and good mother".
"I haven't thought about it yet, I'll talk about it then!" Dugu Daxue said with a smile.
Qin Jiarui replied: "I don't want to owe favors, especially yours, and I don't want to owe them even more!" ”
Qin Jiarui knows very well that as a businessman who is proficient in calculation, the debt of money is easy to repay, but the debt of favor is the most difficult to repay. If it is an ordinary love debt, it may be okay to pay it back, but if it is a love debt of a love enemy, it is the most difficult to repay. If you owe someone a favor, don't owe it to your rival, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. So if you can solve it as soon as possible, that's the best solution, otherwise if you owe Dugu Daxue a favor in the future, you will be embarrassed. So Qin Jiarui doesn't want to owe favors, especially the favors of his rivals.
"But you really don't think about your children?" Dugu Daxue asked.
"And what do you want?" Qin Jiarui asked again.
Dugu Daxue replied: "It's very simple, if you promise me one condition, I will also promise you!" ”
"On what terms?" Qin Jiarui asked.
Shi Bufan hurriedly said: "Heavy snow, don't go too far!" ”
"Hehe, husband, this condition is not necessarily a bad thing for Miss Qin!" Dugu Daxue said.
"Oh? What conditions? Qin Jiarui asked.
Dugu Daxue quickly signaled to Shi Bufan, obviously asking Shi Bufan to leave the room temporarily, because he didn't want Shi Bufan to know. And Shi Bufan frowned, obviously knowing that this condition had something to do with him. But what exactly is the relationship, this time is not clear. He doesn't care about any deals between his women, because it's better to have a deal than no deal at all. In many cases, if there is a transaction, it means that the relationship between the two parties is still within the controllable range, otherwise once there is no need for a transaction at all, it often means that it is not far from a falling out. It's impossible to make your woman feel like a sister. Shi Bufan would never daydream like this, but he hoped that at least he could maintain the fact that they would not tear each other down.
However, it didn't take long for Dugu Daxue to open the door and come out, and Qin Jiarui smiled at Dugu Daxue's back. And the two seem to have a lot of close relationship, which makes Shi Bufan also amazed, what did Dugu Daxue and Qin Jiarui say just now?
"You've discussed?" Shi Bufan asked.
Dugu Daxue replied: "It's nothing, it's just a deal." ”
"What deal?" Shi Bufan asked.
But Dugu Daxue replied with a smile: "Husband, what if I don't want to say it?" ”
"You don't want to say? Well, I know that if I push you, you may not tell the truth. Instead of forcing you to lie and embarrass both parties, it's better not to ask. Shi Bufan replied.
Shi Bufan knows that Dugu Daxue is not the kind of weak woman, if he is really persecuted too deeply, then maybe he will make Dugu Daxue nonsense! If Dugu Daxue is forced to make up nonsense at that time, it will really be embarrassing for the two to meet in the future. So in this case, it's better not to be persecuted, so that everyone can meet in the future. What's more, they are husband and wife, and they have to spend their lives together, if it really makes trouble, then it must not be human inside and out!
And Shi Bufan also thought that Dugu Daxue would not harm him, because in fact, Dugu Daxue and Shi Bufan were already tied together, and the two women had no reason to harm themselves. Since this is the case, it is better to choose to trust her, don't force her to say hello, lest you force Dugu Daxue to make up nonsense, and both parties will be extremely embarrassed, and it will be sad in the future.
