Chapter 92

With the widespread spread of the concept of "monogamy" in Western civil law in China and the rise of the feminist movement, the concubine system has been increasingly criticized by public opinion, which is considered to be one of the manifestations of feudal dross, and the government's countermeasure is to passively not recognize the identity of the concubine and indirectly deny the act of taking concubines, that is, to avoid the issue of concubineship

Therefore, although China is said to be the Republic of China, but in the 10th year of the Republic of China, it is still according to the Beiyang government in the 4th year of the Republic of China to compile 7 chapters of the "Civil Law Relatives Draft", which is actually a reprint of the "Qing Dynasty Civil Law Draft", and its chapters are roughly the same as the draft of the Qing Dynasty Civil Law Relatives Law, but a very small number of provisions that cannot be used in the Republic of China have been deleted.

The draft civil law of the Beiyang government basically follows the "Draft Civil Law of the Qing Dynasty", and the word concubine does not appear in its legal provisions, but there are still legal provisions of "concubine" and "concubine", which undoubtedly acquiesce in the legitimacy of the existence of concubines and acquiesce in the continued existence of concubines. Therefore, the recognition and acquiescence of concubinage in the civil law of the Republic of China has led to the practice of concubinage still prevailing in society, and all levels of society are full of concubine families.

But fortunately, the "Draft of the Great Qing Civil Law" is not such an early law as the "Great Qing Law", and it is still applicable now.

It's just that Wang Wenwu looked at the girl who was not big in front of him, and he also had a headache, most of the natural and man-made disasters in the north were engaged at the age of ten, although the "Civil Law" formulated by the Beiyang government stipulated: "Men under the age of 18 and women under the age of 16 are not allowed to get married." The matchmaker took Wang Wenwu to see several people who were married at the age of thirteen or fourteen.

I told the matchmaker not to take it to such a young person, and I felt that I suddenly had a girl-like appearance, but fortunately, Wang Wenwu gave enough money to the matchmaker, and the matchmaker didn't say anything on the side, but now I took it to see a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl.

Wang Wenwu knew that he couldn't show his wealth, so he only told the matchmaker about the courtyard in BJ City and the errand of the steward. Those who have a small family don't want their daughters to be concubines for people from well-off families, and there are already three in this person's family.

So Xiang's family is basically not rich, the girl looks thin and thin, Wang Wenwu fell in love with the third brother of the family called Brother Pan, the eldest and the second brother are married, there are four younger sisters under Brother Pan, Brother Pan's father plans to use the bride price given by Wang Wenwu to marry another one, saying that Brother Pan's mother will not be able to give birth to a boy, especially when he heard the matchmaker say that Wang Wenwu has several boys, it is envious.

also asked Wang Wenwu if there was any trick that could not be achieved, Wang Wenwu hurriedly said no, but Pandi's father just didn't believe it, and inquired around the bush.

This birth of a boy and a girl involves genetic engineering, how could Wang Wenwu know, but now out of nine children, seven boys are still the envy of men, women and children in the alley.

Seeing Wang Wenwu like this, he didn't put his father-in-law on the shelf, after all, there is not much difference between him marrying a daughter and selling a daughter, Zhang Muen still has a burden, and Brother Pan only has clothes on his body, and they are full of patches, Wang Wenwu estimates that if it weren't for the girl's shirtlessness, Brother Pan's father would really be able to let Brother Pan go with Wang Wenwu naked.

Just a piece of paper, a hundred oceans, this girl called Brother Pan is Wang Wenwu's concubine, out of Brother Pan's house, Wang Wenwu did not hesitate, and settled the money with the matchmaker on the spot, although the money is not much, but like Wang Wenwu is not much neat, and he said a few auspicious words when he left.

After saying goodbye to the matchmaker, Wang Wenwu looked at the thin brother Pan beside him, and was looking around blankly, Brother Pan was actually quite beautiful, but the family had no money to eat, so he was thin, Wang Wenwu stretched out his hand to hold Brother Pan, but Brother Pan seemed to be frightened and avoided it.

Wang Wenwu didn't force it, he led the way in front, first sold a few clothes to Pan Di to wear, and Pan Di followed not far behind, walking on the street and suddenly saw Wang Wenwu turn into a shop, Pan Di looked at what the people were wearing, and then looked down at what he was wearing, so he looked at Wang Wenwu and his buddy at the door of the shop, and the noise around made Pan Di unable to hear what his man was saying.

I saw that my man pointed at himself, and the guy next to him looked at him and went in, is this himself being sold again?

Wang Wenwu looked at the little girl at the door, smiled and beckoned Brother Pan to come in, wanting to say to see if there was anyone he liked, but before Wang Wenwu could speak, Brother Pan completely hid, although Wang Wenwu could decide by himself, but he still wanted her to choose by herself.

Brother Pan looked at the man who was his husband and beckoned to him, but was he going to sell himself again? Daddy only smiled at himself when he married that person, and Daddy saw that he and his sisters had never laughed, and when he was unhappy, he beat his mother, and his mother was beaten to death in this way.

Brother Pan still remembers, when he heard the matchmaker say that a rich man came to see the girl to be a child, his father was very happy, and he especially drank, and after getting drunk, he said that he would have money to marry a daughter-in-law again, and my father sold me and married a new daughter-in-law for money, and I don't know how my sisters are now, my father has never cooked, and there is almost no rice at home, and I don't know if the new mother will like her sisters.

Brother Pan was hiding outside the shop, and his thoughts were flying, when he suddenly heard someone whispering his name in his ear.

"Brother Pan! Brother Pan! Brother Pan! Seeing Brother Pan looking at him, Wang Wenwu continued: "What are you thinking here, come!" Come in and pick up some clothes. ”

Brother Pan lowered his head again and whispered, "I don't dare." ”

On the noisy street, Wang Wenwu didn't hear what Brother Pan said at all, he saw his mouth open, and he didn't know if he said anything, Wang Wenwu didn't want to delay it, after all, it was almost the New Year, Wang Wenwu still had a few things to deal with, and directly grabbed Brother Pan's arm and lifted Brother Pan into the shop.

When he mentioned the stool, he motioned for Brother Pan to sit down, and he didn't care about Brother Pan.

At this time, the guy came over with a few foreign cheongsams,

The guy picked up a set of cheongsam and said to Wang Wenwu: "Master, how do you look at this body!" ”

Wang Wenwu didn't say much, he took the cheongsam from the man's hand and gestured directly to Brother Pan, the guy saw the clothes on Brother Pan's body and had the intention to say something, but he was suffocated by Wang Wenwu's eyes.

Although Wang Wenwu said that he held back the guy's eyes, but in the end it was still exposed, and Brother Pan looked even more cramped, eager to find a crack on the ground to hide in, and the customers around him also looked at the pair in front of him happily.

Brother Pan's figure is too thin, and his clothes will always be very big, and then the old man who was watching from the side said, "You want her to be so thin?" ”

A middle-aged man wearing a coat, with braids on the back of his head, and a beautiful beard, answered: "What do you know, this is the authentic capital of helping the wind and shaking the willows." ”

These two didn't care about Wang Wenwu, they discussed in front of Brother Pan whether it was better to be thin or plump.
