The road from Africa to Europe

Chapter 594
In this era, if you are born as a woman, you will be inferior to men from the beginning. This point has special annotations and guidance in the famous Women's Commandments. Three days after giving birth to a daughter, she lies under the bed, makes tiles and bricks, and fasts.Lying under the bed, it is obvious that it is humble and weak, and the master is also a servant.Get the tiles and bricks to show their hard work, and the master is also on duty.Fast to tell the ancestors, and the master will continue to sacrifice.

Those words translated into vernacular are: Three days after the baby is born, the baby girl will be put under the bed, and some tiles for weaving are given as toys. own identity.The tiles used for weaving symbolize that women must be hardworking and capable, and they must also assist their husbands in offering sacrifices.

This is what women have to do, and there are other clauses that make them angry when they look at it, such as: there is no evil, that is to say, the elders let female compatriots do evil things, even if they don’t want to do it, they must do it, and they must not refuse.After reading it, Ling Xiao felt that his three views had exploded. There is a sentence that I can give to the person who wrote the Commandments for Women: Why do women make things difficult for women.

But it is this kind of books full of theories that men are superior to women, which was popular in ancient times. Everyone regards this kind of books as the best brainwashing tools. There are many girls who lose their chance to live because of their gender relationship at birth.

If compared with those girls who died young, the original owner will find that being able to live is a kind of luck. Even though the original owner lost the protection of the family, she is still in good health, and someone took her away from the suffocating family. kind of happiness.

Of course, the original owner still wants to live the old life, thinking that he must wear silk and satin every day and eat delicacies from mountains and seas, then he may feel that he is not doing well after a while, it depends on how he thinks.

People who can think about it will find the joy of living in all aspects of life. If you just keep thinking about the irretrievable past, you may make yourself live too hard because of the reason you can't think about it. It depends on everyone. s Choice.

Ling Xiao naturally knew that what she could give the original owner was not much compared to her original identity. For example, as an outsider, she could not give the original owner a very noble status. You must know that when she was a fleeing person, she had to find someone A more suitable identity is waiting to find an opportunity to become a naturalist. It is best to have someone with this identity, so that it will not be easy to be debunked.

Therefore, when choosing an identity, you must pay attention to several things. You can’t take the kind of people with a lot of family members. After all, they look different. You must prevent the so-called family members from discovering and changing people. This is because Ling Xiao cannot have Relevant memories, so the fewer those acquaintances, the better. After all, this identity is the best.

There is indeed a real person with this identity, which is the information Ling Xiao mentioned before. The only difference is that both father and son died in a foreign land and could never return to their hometown. As a reward, she will bring their ashes back to the Their hometown allows them to return to their roots.

Then here comes the problem, this identity is not the so-called son of an official, so it is impossible to give the original owner a more noble identity. After all, this identity has been determined, and she is a civilian girl.

To have a noble status, there are only two possibilities. One is that Ling Xiao can use the body of a puppet to earn a great future, but she never planned to become an official from here. This is a puppet who belongs to the older type , It's a bit late to take the imperial examination.

In addition, being an official also has grades. Even if you succeed in the imperial examination, the number one scholar starts from the seventh rank. It takes decades to become a high-ranking official. The original owner has already become an old woman, which is three autumns late.

And now the officialdom is too chaotic, there are intrigues everywhere, one bad thing is the end of the whole family being wiped out.How glorious the power minister's family was at the beginning, in order to keep the power minister's official position and life, the emperor ignored the impeachment of the power minister's family by other officials.

This situation led to the power minister's family being extremely arrogant, and the granddaughter of a high-ranking official of the original owner was still a concubine. This shows that the power minister is so powerful that he is simply invincible wherever he goes, and it is simply the greatest achievement of being an official.

What the ministers of power never imagined was that one day he would be rejected by the emperor. Who made their father and son too arrogant and domineering, and they felt that they had offended many people. Even if he was loyal, the emperor's most indispensable Is a loyal person.

The most important thing is that the son of a powerful official does not have the loyalty of a powerful minister. Perhaps it is because of the situation of being alone for many years that his heart becomes extremely inflated, and finally he speaks nonsense in the emperor's inner library, causing the powerful minister to gradually lose his original place in the emperor's heart. In the eyes of the emperor, there are plenty of people who are loyal to him, and there is no shortage of powerful ministers.

In this way, the powerful minister gradually lost the emperor's favor. His opponent saw the opportunity coming. After all, no one likes a colleague who is like a powerful minister one day. Then the enemies of the powerful minister and even other officials will join forces to sue the powerful minister. Well, the whole line of powerful officials did not escape the liquidation, even the original owner was affected.

Ling Xiao still has a good understanding of the official system of this dynasty. It belongs to the dynasty with the least guarantee. First of all, the salary of each official is very low. The Song Dynasty in China was much worse.

Of course, it is undeniable that the founding emperor of this dynasty was very good, because he was an emperor who was completely from the common people, and the emperors of other dynasties, except for Han Gaozu in the Western Han Dynasty, were more or less related to the gentry of the previous dynasty.

Perhaps the reason why the emperor was born in the common people caused the founding emperor to hate high salaries, and the salaries given to officials were too low. Later, the so-called treasure money was returned, that is to say, officials worked hard to pass the exam, but found that they worked hard and got paid. The salary he received could not even support his family.

There are also many relatively clean officials who cannot be buried after death because they have no money.And more flexible-minded people naturally have new plans. There are indeed people who have always liked simplicity, but more people want to live a good life. Get money through other channels, that is to say, if you can't get it through serious channels, you will naturally go astray.

This also led to one thing: Even though the emperor Taizu instituted the torture of peeling off the skin of corrupt officials, which showed that he hated the crime of corruption and killed many corrupt officials, there were still endless corrupt officials.

Many of these officials really wanted to be loyal to the country at the beginning, and they were more peaceful and happy. It's normal for people after the show to change their minds.

After the first batch of corrupt officials who have achieved great success set an example, there will naturally be another group of officials who find that other officials are living better than themselves, and after careful calculation, they feel that their salaries are not enough. People who are deeply stimulated Gradually, you will start to break through your own moral bottom line, and your whole person will go in another direction.

That person changed, to a large extent, because he was stimulated by the people around him. After all, he has power in his hands, so of course he and his family are not willing to live that kind of miserable life.

There is also a kind of official who will insist on the standard of incorruptibility at the beginning, but has no time to pay attention to the situation in his back house. Relatives in the family include but not limited to parents, wives and children, as well as clan members and other seven aunts and eight aunts. Bribery, and eventually the official was also dragged into the water and became a part of the corruption.

There are also those cronies, whether it is from geographical connections, or because of connections between mentors and apprentices, husbands and wives, marriages, etc., officials will become members of cronies without knowing it.Ling Xiao doesn't know how to go off to practice. Most people living in the officialdom are good at learning, and she doesn't like it.

Since it is absolutely impossible for Ling Xiao to become an official, there is only one possibility left: the original owner marrying a very motivated man. Of course, this kind of investment is very risky, because that man may be the kind of man who gets promoted and gets rich in exchange for his wife. Kind of scum.So the original owner will be happy?

Ling Xiao understands the temper of the original owner very well. He is soft-tempered and introverted, and doesn't like to socialize with other people at all. Can this kind of person with a bit of social phobia be a good wife who is good at everything?

I don’t think so, it’s not that Ling Xiao underestimated the original owner, even if the original owner has read a lot of books with him, and Ling Xiao thinks he can earn her a very good dowry, but the original owner is definitely not the kind of person who likes to go up The good wife of a climbing man.

The original owner's social phobia made it impossible for her to become a long-sleeved and capable housewife. Ling Xiao didn't think highly of the original owner at all. If she married a particularly capable man, she might be in danger of going down the court.

Although some men change their wives a little bit, they are quite decent. Although they abandon their incompetent wives for their own future, they will still let their wives go and let that woman leave with a dowry.

But if you meet a calculating man, I'm afraid he won't let the original owner go, maybe he will think of a way to kill him, leaving his wife's dowry for his family's future expenses, then the original owner is in danger.

You must know that Ling Xiao at that time was afraid that he was not in this world, so he could still control the life and death of the original owner?Seek justice for her?Can't!As soon as Ling Xiao thought of this possibility, he decided to make the original owner stand up, and find someone who can tolerate the original owner in the future.

You must know that she may be able to stay until the original owner's child is born, or even wait until she grows up, but she definitely won't wait until the original owner dies before leaving. Thinking of this, Ling Xiao looked at the dazed original owner, feeling that the road is long, At the same time, let the kneeling original owner stand up.

Ling Xiao took the original owner down the mountain the next day, and the original owner followed down the mountain with a bit of curiosity. Fortunately, her body has been trained, and she can still walk, and she is a bit excited.

You must know that this is the first time for her to walk so far, and Ling Xiao's memory is not very impressive to her. Now that she has done it herself, she knows that the scenery outside is really good, but gradually she feels a little hot .

Seeing the people in the town with a bit of discomfort, the original owner's first thought was to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Ling Xiao and had to bite the bullet and keep up. In this way, the two of them walked around the town, buying some daily necessities.

Ling Xiao deliberately asked the original owner to carry things up the mountain. The original owner was very energetic at first, but then he felt that he was very hot, but insisted on going up. Later, he felt how heavy it was to carry things up the mountain, so heavy that she had to rest After drinking it several times, I was still very thirsty.

Ling Xiao waited until she couldn't recite it, and then the original owner finally realized that the reason she lived so happily was because someone was behind her to carry it for her. Without Ling Xiao's support, she was nothing.

Ling Xiao even told her on the way that the vegetables they ate were all grown by themselves, and they didn't need to go down the mountain to buy them, otherwise they would have to go down the mountain to buy them even more. Living on the mountain is not very convenient.

After listening to it, the original owner always felt that something was wrong. After thinking about it, she couldn't find the reason. Later, she didn't care about the thought just now. She understood the truth, but it was another matter to really figure it out.

After thinking for a few days, she finally understood why Ling Xiao wanted to go down the mountain?Because it is not very convenient to live on the mountain, if there is no help from Ling Xiao, I am afraid that there will be problems, and it will take a day to go back and forth, so she should go down the mountain.

She lowered her head to find Ling Xiao to express her thoughts. After thinking about it for a while, she realized that she didn't have any money-making skills. must go.

Ling Xiao glanced at the original owner after knowing about it, and naturally found that she was a little insincere, but Ling Xiao naturally would not continue to sympathize with the original owner, and had already let her slow down for nearly half a year.
Now she has too many problems waiting to be dealt with, so Ling Xiao found a convoy and wanted to go on the road with her. After all, she didn't really want to reveal that she had a certain force value.

Since he didn't live on the mountain, Ling Xiao began to think about where to live. That kind of big city, especially the big city with strong commercialization, is not suitable. You must know that there are still servants in the palace in this dynasty, which is super annoying.

And don't go to the place where the vassal kings are, where the vassal kings are local snakes. She doesn't like those vassal kings very much.

Although the vassal kings have always been raised as pigs, they still belong to the royal family. It doesn't matter if they look down on the vassal kings, but it will be very troublesome if they rise to the point of looking down on the royal family.

Moreover, the wives married by the vassals are all from small households, which often means that the people in their families don’t necessarily have a good eye. Sometimes the king of Hades is easy to see, and little GUI is difficult to deal with. They will act under the banner of the palace. , or stay away from the position of these vassal kings, otherwise a bad one will become their prey.

Since a big city is not very suitable, it does not mean that she has to live in the countryside. It is not that she looks down on the country people, but the country cares more about the clan, and many people living in the village are mostly illiterate.

Illiterate people often don't know many truths. The so-called simple people may represent ignorance and stubbornness. If they live in the village, should they buy a house?Do you want to buy land?
These are all issues that need to be paid attention to, and there is still the biggest problem. The original owner is a woman. Although Ling Xiao feels that the original owner is still young, in the eyes of ancient people, she is already not young. She can get engaged and get married in a few years.

Ling Xiao felt that there would be some troubles at that time, and the people in the village were more or less relatives or other relationships. As outsiders, they generally belonged to the kind that were most likely to be calculated by others, especially those in the village. The old You Tiao will have an idea when he sees that the Song family has some money or land.

I'm afraid that there will be many people in the village who want to marry the original owner, but Ling Xiao is unlikely to agree to this kind of marriage proposal, because the other party may be destitute, so Ling Xiao will not plan to marry the original owner to someone who has seven aunts and eight aunts. In such a family, the interpersonal relationship is too complicated.

I'm afraid this kind of thinking will blow some people's minds, because some people may use many means to seize this marriage in order to live a good life.Then in the future, when the original owner goes out, he may accidentally touch a young man with a certain part of his body, which will cause problems.It means that the original owner is going to marry that man, even if he wants to.

After all, the fact that the original owner bumped into a man might be someone else's plan. According to the stereotypes and bad habits for women, people in the village would even say that the original owner's body is not innocent anymore, shit!Why not innocent?Not just a hit.

But in this era, if a girl is unlucky enough to be bullied by a man, instead of getting help from the law, those people will say with one voice: Marry that bastard.

Even if the woman is being bullied, but because she is not innocent in everyone's eyes, she should marry that man!After getting married, everyone can be happy, and if she really gets married, she will be despised by the man, as if the woman has been messing around all the time, and her innocence will be gone after a bump.

Later, he can eat the woman's out-of-home food, and rely on the convenience of his status to double the oppression of the original owner, so that he can control the original owner tightly, and basically never run away when the original owner gives birth to a child.

Those who think that life in the country is the so-called pastoral pastoral are absolutely illusory conjectures.If she plans to bring the original owner to live in, she must first tell the original owner to remember: don't think that you will be able to get along well with the people in the village, the countryside has its own rules.

The villagers are not all simple and kind, but more of them are the kind of people who want to take advantage of small advantages. Ling Xiao knows very well, so he has no plan to live in that kind of place at all. Ling Xiao has no intention of dealing with them. , then there are many fewer options for where you want to settle down.
