Chapter 5: The Little Lady Goes Wild
Because there were few female babies and many men in the Great Jin Dynasty, in order to give all men in the country a chance to reproduce, the imperial court clearly stipulated: A family with a wife can be the wife of brothers, and the woman who marries into this family is not qualified to refuse.
However, if the other brothers in the family do not want to have a wife, they can also marry another wife.
It's just that looking at the extremely unbalanced situation between men and women in the entire Great Jin Dynasty, men are also willing to share wives for their own lifelong happiness, because being able to marry a wife is also a man's lifelong pursuit.
Of course, the imperial court also has corresponding regulations, although a woman can have several husbands, but a man only has one chance to marry a wife. Once a wife is in common, she cannot marry another person. If you don't have a good attitude towards your co-wife and are disliked, you will have a miserable life in this life.
"Why can't I eat fish and drink fish soup? The creek is not contracted by you. Shui Hibiscus hid behind Xiao Li and pushed back without admitting defeat.
Cut, drinking fish soup was also scolded as a loser?
Have you ever drunk fish soup in this family?!
Xiao Ning blocked Chai He outside the courtyard gate and glared at Shui Hibiscus, "The fish is to be sold for money, not for you to drink." ”
"Third brother, let's go into the house first, it's right to give Xiaofu a bowl of fish soup." Xiao Li carried the basket containing the fish and tightened the weak daughter-in-law behind her, for fear that the third brother's stinky temper would really not let them go to the creek to catch fish.
Although hiding behind Xiao Li, Shui Furong still felt Xiao Ning's vicious appearance, and she blew her eyebrows, how could this Xianggong be like a little devil, so stingy.
"Sixth brother, I still owe the money to marry this girl, don't get used to what she wants, I will sell it in the town if you catch fish."
In front of his daughter-in-law, Xiao Li persuaded him with good words, "Third brother, you go to eat first, I will try to catch as many fish as possible to sell, but we have to be nice to Xiaofu, you see her slim like this......"
Xiao Li felt faintly distressed in her heart for her daughter-in-law's body and bones, and was forced to show it by the third brother. His cheeks turned a lot redder in an instant.
"Sixth brother, ignore him. Let's go catch fish. ”
Shui Furong glared back at Xiao Ning, grabbed Xiao Li's arm and walked out.
Not only did she have to catch fish, but she also had to eat fish and drink fish soup.
Xiao Ning stood in place and looked at the backs of the two, the axe on his back was thrown on the ground, and he spat out his breath.
The two walked to the stream, and Shui Hibiscus was attracted by a small stream in front of them, which was not very wide.
The creek is lined with green crops, on this side is dry land, and on the other side of the stream are rice fields.
There are also villagers pulling weeds in the fields and doing something.
"Sixth brother, how do you catch fish? Do you want me to help you? Shui Furong grabbed Xiao Li's clothes and looked up at her little face, Xiao Li was a head taller than her, and her handsome face was dyed with a thin layer of red and smiled.
"Xiaofu, you sit by the stream and play, catching fish is the rough work that our men do." Xiao Li was reluctant to part, so she carried the fishing basket on her back and went down to the stream to build a dam. They often come to fish, and there is a slip of rocks across the stream in the rapids of the stream.
Xiao Li bent down to straighten out the stone formation, and then left only a flowing water mouth the size of a fishing basket, catching the water flowing upstream, and the fish swam into the basket.
Water Hibiscus sat on the shore and grabbed a small stone and smashed it on the stone slab boringly to look around the scenery, always feeling that there was a pair of eyes behind her looking at her. casually looked back at the courtyard of the Xiao family above, but saw Xiao Ning standing at the gate of the courtyard looking at her.
The distance between the two was a little far, and although they couldn't see each other's faces clearly, Shui Furong still glared at Xiao Ning.
The rich family has three wives and four concubines, and her husband has a violent temper and naturally has nothing to say, but the Xiao family is poor and dislikes her!
Thinking of this, Shui Furong deliberately bent down to catch the fish in the stream Xiao Lijiao said, "Sixth brother, how many fish have you caught?" I'll come down and help. ”
