For Wu Guifang's insecure problems, Wu Hongsheng is more and more understanding.

When these children grow up and have their own small families, they basically have all kinds of thoughts.

In other words, when they reach this age, they will only take care of themselves.

Children who have the ability, if they live a good life, have the ability and are particularly good at earning money, then they will be relatively generous in dealing with their parents' pension.

As long as the parents do not deviate from the issue of educating their children when they are young, they do not randomly beat and scold their children, abuse their children, or insult their children's personality,...... Then, when children grow up and build their own families, they generally think about the good of their parents, and will not simply say that they want to hold grudges and take revenge.

However, these operating principles of modern society are still a bit inapplicable in the rural society in ancient times when the economy was underdeveloped and the people could only live at a level of food and clothing.

Therefore, some smart people in ancient times, they framed these people from the perspective of law and culture. Let every junior know how to be filial.

When the dynasty was prosperous, including when the dynasty was prosperous, they would always advocate the rule of the world with filial piety. In the law, we will always strictly punish those juniors who are unfilial and disrespectful to their parents, grandparents, and elders.

In any dynasty of ancient feudal society, children who killed their biological parents would be sentenced to death.

The children used words to disobey their parents, so that their biological parents could not think about it, and committed suicide by various means. If such a thing is spread, the children will also be arrested by the government and then executed by Ling Chi.

…… The state uses its laws to clearly inform every countryman that the younger generation must be filial to the elders.

The words of the elders, the younger generations should listen.

However, in the ancient feudal dynasties, the vast majority of cases were that the imperial power was not lower than the county.

In the rural areas below the county level, the patriarchal system is practiced.

Clan rights, family rights, sometimes can completely replace the government. For their own people, lynching is carried out according to family rules.

……

Although the wise scholars of all dynasties have designed these things well.

However, the situation is all changing.

Once the power of the government is slowly degrading, there will be a lot of changes in every small family in the countryside.

Especially when the patriarchs of those families, as they get older, their control over their children's rights will unconsciously and slowly shrink.

In this way, after their own status is threatened, the problem of pension will become imminent.

Especially when a small family like theirs encounters natural and man-made disasters.

The adult men in the family, that is, the backbone of those families, they will choose to give up first, and they are already useless old people for them.

Even those old people have done a lot of things that are beneficial to the family before, and they have selflessly paid for their juniors. But when it's time to give up on them, they give up.

Because when people are in a critical moment, they have to make choices.

When the drought comes, the whole family will starve to death if they can't eat, so give up on the old man first.

When the war disaster comes, the foreign invaders invade in a big way, and the whole clan must run away, so they have to give up some useless old people.

As for the women and children, they always treat them as a strategic commodity during the war.

Especially some of the so-called famous generals who defended the city, every time they encountered the siege of the enemy, they would arrest the old, weak, sick and disabled men, as well as those women and children in the city, and after killing them, they would be used as dry food for the defense of the city.

……

In ancient times, life was too cruel, and it was already quite difficult for many people to live.

If he can't take precautions, if he can't think more about himself, Wu Guifang is worried that the next time he encounters any natural or man-made disasters, he will be regarded as an abandoned son by the people in his family.

So, when she realized that Wu Hongsheng also had the same sense of crisis as her. As for him, because of his family position, he naturally became his ally.

Wu Guifang couldn't help but tell him while the iron was hot, "Master, I always heard a sentence before. It is said that these eggs cannot always be put in one basket. ”

"There are so many children in this family. There are smart ones, and there are stupid ones. It's okay for these stupid people to let them nest in this small village, farming there every day, and supporting their families, and that doesn't bury them. ”

"However, if we treat those smart children in this way, it will be too bad to waste their talents."

"So, I thought in my heart, if we have a chance in the future, we must let these children go out, see more of the world, and learn more skills. The male and female babies in this family, as long as they have a skill, they can at least add some family when the time comes. Even if they encounter some bad years, as long as they have money, savings and food in hand, they will not panic, and they will not do anything to destroy their conscience. ”

Hearing his daughter-in-law say this, Wu Hongsheng nodded heavily.

"These days, I have this thought in my mind."

"I think the idea of starting a small business is pretty good."

"When the farming is busy, we farm here. When the farm is slack, we go to the county town to sell some small things, and the people of this family can live a more relaxed life. ”

Knowing that he completely agreed with his idea, Wu Guifang called Wu Hongsheng and hurriedly led the mule to the mill.

50 pounds of soybeans, some grinding!

After grinding the soybeans, they can take the tofu and sell it.

However, it is too far to carry a burden from this mountain to the county seat.

So, Wu Guifang couldn't help but ask, "Did you pass through any small towns on your way to the county seat?" ”

Wu Hongsheng listened, thought about it seriously, and then nodded.

"I've heard people say that our Lishui County, well, now has 16 towns. The closest town to our place,...... There are also 10 kilometers too! ”

"That',...... How long does it take for a man to walk 10 kilometers of mountain roads? ”

Wu Hongsheng: "It's probably an hour. ”

Wu Guifang thought about it and felt that it took a bit of time to come and go.

Two hours, that is, four hours on the road, is really not worth it.

Besides, fresh white tofu is still made on the same day, and it is good to eat on the same day.

Otherwise, they are extremely susceptible to souring.
