The blind mother-in-law actually promised to give Xiaoxiao a free body? Xiaoxiao is her daughter-in-law! When the crowd heard this, they were shocked. The fact that a mother-in-law restores her daughter-in-law's freedom is extremely rare in the whole society.

It's simply unthinkable! You must know that the blind mother-in-law in the past stared at Xiaoxiao every day, and often inquired about news with other women, for fear that Xiaoxiao would have an affair with another man.

What was the reason for her to change her mind? The crowd couldn't figure it out.

"So, please don't embarrass Mr. and Xiaoxiao." The blind mother-in-law said, "They can do whatever they want, Sir has worked hard for our village, and he has tried his best to make us live a good life, and he is a great benefactor to all of us." The gentleman came to the village alone to help us without asking for anything in return...... There is indeed a lack of a woman around. ”

"My wife also agreed to give Xiaoxiao a free body in order to repay her husband."

"That is, the mother-in-law doesn't object, what ancient rules do you still adhere to?" When the women heard this, they said one after another.

"Patriarch, since the matter has come to this, you can see ......" Lu Dali turned his head to the old patriarch and asked.

"How to deal with this kind of thing, the clan rules are not recorded." The elders of the second room were embarrassed and said, "Because the ancestor probably didn't expect that the mother-in-law would agree with her daughter-in-law...... Alas! ”

"Xiaoxiao, since your mother-in-law has promised you a free body, why don't you do it openly?" The patriarch couldn't help but ask Xiaoxiao, "You can let your husband come to your house to tell your mother-in-law, and then inform the villagers, and you can be together openly." ”

"Why did you make things so far?"

"I said it, this matter has nothing to do with Mr...... "Xiaoxiao said, "What kind of person is Xiaoxiao, how can she be favored by Mr.?" ”

"The reason why she didn't find someone to say it should be because she was self-aware and knew that her husband would not agree." The elder of the second room said, "So she took the initiative to seduce Mr., it can already be determined." ”

"And Mr. is actually willing to go up the knife mountain and the sea of fire for a woman who seduces him to save her life, it is really affectionate and touching!"

"Xiaoxiao, you are really cheap!" The elders of the third room sighed.

"I didn't seduce Mr. ......," Xiaoxiao said weakly.

"Mr. Qin, let's do it. If you agree to marry Xiaoxiao as a concubine, what she did before can be regarded as above board, and we won't sink her into the pond! The patriarch finally said to Qin Yu, "You don't have to pass the three levels." ”

"Sir, please give her some grace." The blind mother-in-law pleaded.

When the crowd heard this, they all turned their eyes to Qin Yu.

The problem came to Qin Yu again. As long as he agrees, he can save Xiaoxiao.

But he couldn't agree.

He couldn't accept this feeling from the bottom of his heart.

And what the villagers said was to let Xiaoxiao be his concubine, how can there be a concubine in modern society? It's feudal dross again! It's the same as before when Lu Dazhuang wanted Lu Qingqian to be a maid ring for him.

In addition, if he agrees to this matter, it is tantamount to not confessing to himself and admitting that he has an affair with Xiaoxiao.

But if he doesn't agree to this matter, the patriarch and the villagers will not be able to step down, and things will be difficult to clean up.

At this time, Qin Yu wanted to ask Xiaoxiao who the child in her belly was.

But he couldn't ask.

Once you find out who the adulterer is, I'm afraid that Xiaoxiao and that man will suffer. The reason why the villagers are so tolerant now is entirely because of the face they have helped them, if they were replaced by someone else......

It is even more difficult for them to give up the idea of sinking people into the pond.

I can't help but think of a story that has been circulated for a long time, there was once a woman who had an affair with a man, conceived a child and was punished by the villagers, and asked who the adulterer was. The woman refused to say the adulterer's name and finally threw the pot to a monk.

The monk didn't make any excuses, begged for food everywhere and silently raised his children for more than ten years, and suffered the humiliation of the villagers.

In the end, the woman really couldn't stand it, and her conscience found out, and when she told the truth, people knew that the child was not a monk.

"Although I didn't study the Dharma, I did what the monk did unconsciously."

"Do you have to be this 'backstabber'?"

"No, I, Qin Yu, definitely shouldn't be a backbiter, and it's impossible to pass the three levels or something."

After thinking about it carefully, he stood out of the crowd.

"Folks, can you listen to me for a few words?" Said.

"If Mr. Qin has anything to say, please tell me." The old patriarch said.

……

"In your opinion, Xiaoxiao is an unfaithful woman, and as long as a woman is unfaithful, she can be killed by you at will." After seeing the silence of the crowd, Qin Yu said, "But in my opinion, no one has the power to easily deprive others of their lives. ”

"Her husband died when she was a few years old, just a child, what festival did Xiaoxiao need to keep for him? Why should a woman ruin her life's happiness for a child who has been dead for many years? ”

"Didn't you say that the ancestors who migrated to Lujia Village were from the Song Dynasty? The Song Dynasty was a relatively open era, and although it was not as good as the outside, divorce was very common in the Song Dynasty. ”

"Folks, do you know why the ancestor set such a rule for sinking an unfaithful woman into the pond?" Qin Yu asked everyone.

"Why?" The crowd couldn't help but ask.

Even the three village elders showed puzzled looks on their faces. For the rules of their ancestors, they have always wanted to strictly abide by them, and they have never thought about what their ancestors set such rules for.

"It's because of poverty." Qin Yu said, "Remember, the poorer and more backward the place, the more attention is paid to this kind of feudal etiquette. ”

"Why is it that the poorer you are, the more you pay attention to these things?"

For in poor places, if a woman is unfaithful, it is difficult for a man to marry another wife, and the family is dissolved. If a widow does not observe the feast for her deceased husband, she will have no one to take care of her mother and children. ”

Therefore, the ancestors set such strict rules so that future generations can better survive and continue. In the Tang Dynasty and Song Dynasty, and several other relatively wealthy periods, they did not pay attention to these. ”

"It turns out that the rules left by the ancestors are also for the better continuation of the family!" When the crowd heard this, they finally understood the real reason why the ancestors left the rules of the sinking pond.

"In addition, in the remote areas of the Wa Kingdom, there is also a rule left by the ancestors." Qin Yu said, "This terrible rule is that when the mother is too old to work, when the son will take the old mother to the high mountain, and then push it down and fall to death." There is also a place where people will build a tomb in advance, let the mother live in it when they are alive, and then build a piece at the door every day until the tomb is completely sealed. ”

Looking at the five years of teaching, the Ming Dynasty has become an empire on which the sun never sets.8.2... m。 ：
