Chapter 209: Partnering (Ten Changes)
"Miss, this kind of belongs to the marryable, but you can't marry, according to Miss's own will." Gao Mancang's black and white eyes looked at them and said, "Don't worry. ”
"Full warehouse, sit down and talk." Ye Sanniang's amber eyes like cat's eyes looked at Ye Yanxing and said, "You two let Mancang sit down." ”
"Oooh!" Ye Yanxing helped Gao Mancang to sit on the drum stool, and then sat beside him, "Say it quickly, say it quickly." ”
"There is an age limit, widows under the age of thirty must remarry, and those over the age of thirty can marry if they want, and if they don't want to marry, they will not marry." Gao Mancang sat down and said quickly.
"But my mother is less than thirty years old." Ye Yanxing said anxiously.
"If you have children, you can choose not to marry." Gao Mancang looked at them who were in a hurry and said again.
"Huh" Ye Yanxing and the brothers breathed a sigh ......of relief, their mothers don't have to get married.
"That's over, it's time for more stepchildren." Ye Sanniang said without thinking about it when she heard this.
"No, no, no, the imperial court has already thought of this situation." Gao Mancang smiled and said, "Adopted children are not counted, especially in order to avoid remarrying widows, who have only recently passed off." ”
Ye Sanniang looked at him with a stunned face and said, "Then how do they know." ”
Is the hukou system so advanced now?
"When the land was divided, the yamen registered how many people there were in the family. Who is willing to give up this stepchild! Gao Mancang smiled and said, "People are not stupid!" ”
"Does this girl divide the land too?" Ye Sanniang looked at him in surprise and asked.
Gao Mancang looked at her with a look of surprise and said, "How is it possible? Girls are not eligible for land divisions. After thinking about it, he said, "This succession is generally a boy, and a girl will marry in the future." ”
"If a girl wants to divide the land, do you need to be so afraid of men?" Hearing this, the kite spoke.
"That's right." Ye Sanniang nodded her head lightly, blinked her clear eyes and looked at them and said, "Are there so many widows who want to marry?" ”
"Of course, the widow's life is difficult!" Shen Ruyi looked at them intently when he heard the words and said, "Lian Lixia's days are like being in prison, there is no hope, day after day, year after year. Counting Buddha beans and doing needlework, I can't even go out of the yard. And for poor families, going to the fields, farming, carrying water, and chopping firewood, these are all heavy physical work, and no man can share it, and this day is really unbearable. ”
"It's not because of the relationship between men and women!" Ye Sanniang looked at her with innocent eyes and said.
"Miss, this is a long time past the love of young men and girls." Shen Ruyi was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then smiled, "Maybe there is!" But maybe it's the friendship that has been with you for a long time! ”
"That's to live together!" Ye Sanniang looked at them with beady eyes and said.
"Miss, we have to eat well first and survive. As for the beautiful ...... described in the books" Shen Ruyi's phoenix eyes rolled and smiled, giving her a look you understand, there are children here, she is embarrassed to say it.
Ye Sanniang nodded knowingly when she heard this, "It's like Cang Liao knows etiquette, you can only get what you want when you're full." "She understands the love between men and women, right!
Compared to survival, love is a luxury.
"Yes!" Shen Ruyi smiled and nodded in agreement.
"You just said the poor?" Ye Sanniang tilted her head and thought for a while, "What about the big family?" ”
"Big families have a lot of power, and some of them are not easy to do?" Gao Mancang frowned lightly when he heard this, and said, "What the prefect means is that if you don't let you marry, then pay for it." ”
"Paying for it?" Ye Sanniang looked at him dumbfounded and said, "Really? ”
"The prefect can still tell lies!" Gao Mancang's dark eyes looked at her and said seriously, "The money is two hundred taels." ”
"Ahem...... "Ori Kite was shocked by the number and coughed.
Ye Lingzhi looked at the kite worriedly and said, "Grandma." ”
"It's okay, it's okay, it's just scared." Fold Kite waved his hand and said hoarsely, "This small family basically wants to ransom people with money." They don't care about the big families. ”
"That's basically what it means." Gao Mancang nodded again and again when he heard this.
"Why so suddenly?" Ye Sanniang looked at Gao Mancang with some confusion and said.
"Listening to the meaning of the prefect's words, the population in the north has been greatly reduced due to wars and plagues, so widows are allowed to remarry." Gao Mancang looked at them with dark eyes and said.
"I said it!" Ye Sanniang rolled her eyes elegantly, "The husband's power on this head is gone, it turns out ...... Hehe...... "I still treat women as fertility machines, and this time it's just the imperial power."
Under an order, if you don't marry, you have to marry, and you can marry if you want to! Take money to ransom people.
Sure enough, men are unreliable, and women still have to rely on struggle if they want to pursue the right to be independent!
"Why this time?" Ye Sanniang asked again.
"At this time, the autumn harvest is over, the winter wheat has been planted, and the farming is idle." Shen Ruyi chuckled when she heard this, "There are still some days before the New Year, and I happened to be busy looking at each other, and I just happened to get married before the New Year." ”
Ye Sanniang said with a smile, "This is rich, no money, it's better to marry a daughter-in-law for the New Year." ”
"That's what it means!" Gao Mancang nodded his head when he heard this.
"In the future, this matchmaker will break his leg." Shen Ruyi chuckled and said, "The sound of firecrackers in the whole city will be endless." ”
"Can men and women meet each other?" Ye Sanniang looked at them with little hope and said.
"Since ancient times, it has been the order of parents and the words of matchmakers." Hearing this, Ori Kite immediately said, "Miss didn't meet my uncle before she got married. ”
"I want to say that if there are no parents, this father-in-law and mother-in-law can be at ease." Ye Sanniang said with some concern, "I was forced to deliberately choose an unreliable one." The first time I got married, I became a widow, and the second time I had to find an even more unreliable fire pit! ”
"This man and woman are not very good!" Ori Kite said disapprovingly.
"Mother! This is not a little girl, they are already married. There is no man in the family, and many of them are still afraid of this! Ye Sanniang rubbed the tip of her nose with her index finger and said, "It's not nice to say, men have seen everything, for the sake of the rest of their lives, can't they see each other in person?" I want to marry blindly and dumbly! ”
"You say this?" Folded kite scratched his head and said, "We can't do this!" ”
"I'll talk to the prefect's wife." Ye Sanniang crossed her eyebrows when she heard this, looked at them and said.
"Why are you looking for the prefect's wife?" Oribe looked at her puzzled and said.
"Women have to come to women's affairs, and men will only pull hard, like breeding animals. They don't think about how women will live in the future. Ye Sanniang said unceremoniously.
