The growth of the eldest daughter-in-law of the farm gate

Chapter 7 If you can't go back, just stay at ease

Zhao Yunlan was lying on the bed resting, the thunder outside was getting louder and the rain was getting heavier, Zhao Yunlan's heart was pounding, and the feeling of panic started again.

Li Mingmei came in with Xiaobao in her arms. Xiaobao was crying and looking for his mother. Li Mingmei had no choice but to hug her. Although the distance was not far, her hair was wet.

Seeing Xiaobao's dependence on her, Zhao Yunlan suddenly felt inexplicably relieved. "I'm sorry to trouble you, little sister. There is a clean cloth over there to wipe your hair. Xiaobao will stay here. I'm much better now, and I can take care of him."

"Sister-in-law, I'm going to feed the chickens first, just call me loudly if you need anything."

"Well, by the way, there is no need to bring me food tonight, I will take Xiaobao to the room to eat."

"Okay, sister-in-law, I'll go to work first." After saying that, Li Mingmei covered her head and ran out.

Zhao Yunlan and Xiao Bao lay on the bed together, patting and comforting Xiao Bao gently, and her flustered heart seemed to be comforted.

Xiaobao slowly fell asleep under Zhao Yunlan's comfort, and Zhao Yunlan sat next to him and fell into deep thought: If I really can't go back, I have to live here.

This dynasty is the same as the dynasties in the history books I have learned in the past. After all, women are bound.

Although after the war, the new emperor promulgated some systems that are beneficial to women. For example, if the husband and wife are not living in harmony, the woman can also propose to reconcile and divorce. However, after the reconciliation, both men and women are required to start a family again within two years. During the years of war, the population has decreased significantly. , so the country has been adopting some policies to increase the population over the years.

The imperial court stipulated that women can establish female households, but they must have sons in the widow's family and pay a household tax.

After the establishment of the new dynasty, women were also allowed to own personal property. Before this dynasty, women's dowry would be included in the man's property system. It is said that the new emperor's love for the queen changed the system.Now the woman's dowry is at her own disposal, and the man has no right to interfere.And women can buy land, the state will not allocate land to women, but women can buy land and buy land, and wealthy families who love their daughters can also allocate land to their daughters.

Except for merchant women, if they are married women of other classes who manage their own property, they will not be classified as merchants.

This is also a dynasty that divided scholars, farmers, and businessmen. It seems that history has turned a corner at a certain point. The imperial examination system still exists. If the family wants to pursue an official career, three generations are not allowed to engage in business. Therefore, generally those who pursue official careers must train themselves since childhood After all, this era has a high sense of family, and there is a clear distinction between superiority and inferiority.And if some small families become scholars, they will ask their wives to help manage the property.

Zhao Yunlan suddenly realized that the original owner was illiterate, which is really hard for someone who has received a university education from the 21st century. It’s fine to come to this ancient times without being talented, but he is still illiterate, even though this In the environment of the times, women from peasant families basically could not read.

Zhao Yunlan began to have a clue to survive in ancient times. Learning to read characters is the first step. If the Li family will continue to support Li Mingren's education, then he must grow up. I know how to read, otherwise I will go to do something else, sign a document or something, and people will not know if they are fooled.

At present, the chances of me reconciling with Li are not high, and I can't be a widow if there is no accident, so I can only stay in the Li family, and the Li family's condition is indeed...

Li Mingmei shouted outside, "Sister-in-law has eaten."

Seeing that Xiaobao was still sleeping, Zhao Yunlan gently woke Xiaobao up, "Get up and eat first." She put on shoes for Xiaobao and took Xiaobao to the room.

After coming these days, I took a closer look at the big family of the Li family.Although he has the memory of the original body, it is different from being in contact with him personally. After all, the original body's feelings for the Li family are different from his current feelings for the Li family.

Mrs. Wang has already come into contact with it first. She is only in her 30s, but she looks like a modern 50-year-old lady because of years of hard work and poor nutrition and continuous production.

Old man Li seems to be in good health, and his years of hard work and unconscious hunchback make him look ten years older than his actual age.

Several half-grown boys and Li Mingmei were all dark-skinned and thin, and the entire Li family was basically thin and dark.

Only Zhao Yunlan has not lost her scale because of her good foundation, plus she gained weight after not paying attention to her diet after pregnancy.

Zhao Yunlan regained consciousness and shouted: "Father, mother, second brother, third brother, little brother"

Old man Li: "It's fine, let's eat."

The second, third, and fourth "Sister-in-law, sit down and eat first."

Wang's side nodded.

The family ate together. Li Mingmei thought that Zhao Yunlan would eat at the table at night, so she boiled a pot of brown rice porridge without eggs and steamed some cornmeal buns. In the early spring, everyone started to work in the fields, which was a lot of work. So the family drank some rice porridge together to raise them.

Zhao Yunlan thought, this dynasty already had corn and sweet potatoes, but potatoes hadn't been seen yet. In the modern time and space in my memory, it was during the Ming Dynasty that corn and sweet potatoes were introduced to China from abroad.

So what exactly is this dynasty?Let's eat first!
There is no talk about food, except for Xiaobao, Zhao Yunlan takes care of Xiaobao to eat, and dances and dances during the meal.

After everyone finished eating, Zhao Yunlan helped pick up the dishes to the kitchen, and Li Mingmei was in charge of washing the dishes.Zhao Yunlan took Xiaobao back to the room.

Zhao Yunlan played with Xiaobao for a while, and Xiaobao wanted to stay and sleep with her mother. Zhao Yunlan wanted to sort out the situation here first, so she didn't want to be disturbed, so she had to say to Xiaobao: "Mother, please!" It still hurts! Xiaobao will go to sleep with grandma first today."

Xiaobao was sensible and didn't make much noise, so he took Zhao Yunlan to the room together.

After Zhao Yunlan handed Xiaobao to Mrs. Wang, she went back to her room, lying on the bed tossing and turning, thinking for a long time to get up and write a plan, remembering that she doesn't know the characters here, and it's not easy to write modern characters, in case someone else reads her To the point where I thought it would be bad if some spell was treated as a different kind.

Zhao Yunlan was depressed that she had become illiterate, so she finally decided to tidy up the house and find out about her current property. There were a total of 43 copper coins under the bed, all of which were given by the Jiang family. Clothes and a few pieces of coarse cloth.

Zhao Yunlan also found a few books in the box. The characters on them looked a little like the traditional Chinese characters in modern time and space. Judging from the blurred handwriting and rough paper, they should be manuscripts. Akihito copied and bound it when he was studying.

With the plan of literacy, Zhao Yunlan began to think about how to implement it.The three younger brothers in the family are all literate, so I can ask them, the second and third have also studied for a few years, and later the fourth is taught to read by the second and third.

In this era, as a sister-in-law, I can't keep pestering my uncles to learn how to read!Waiting for Li Mingren to come back to teach day lily is cold, let alone whether he is willing to teach.

In the end, Zhao Yunlan never thought of attacking Li Mingmei, and had a plan. Zhao Yunlan felt drowsy, and only waited for the next day to start action.
