Shaojun riding the sea
Chapter 155 Who do you think I am as my son-in-law?
"Of course not!" Shi Zhongqing looked panicked for a moment, but he quickly calmed down, took a deep breath, and said to Shi Xuanling: "Everything dad said is true, there is absolutely no deception, but, just..."
He quickly went through all the reasons in his mind, and finally blurted out as if he was blessed: "It's just that this is against the rules and ethics in the world. Only people who marry should obey their husbands, not their daughters. After all, your mother-in-law is from the Shi family, and her husband is She is still here, what does it mean for you as a daughter to take away her remains, and let her follow you across the ocean and be buried on Yunzhou Island? This is simply ridiculous, isn't it?"
"What is the moral code in the world, to obey your husband when you get married?" Shi Xuanling's face was filled with confusion. She was not an orthodox official lady, so she naturally did not follow the "Three Guidelines and Five Constant Rules". She lived in the mountains of Qingli when she was young, and she was free and unconstrained. He has always been free and unruly at heart, how could he be easily convinced by Shi Zhongqing's remarks?
She immediately retorted: "My mother-in-law has her own hometown and her own name. She is not from the Shi family at all. Even if she marries you, she is herself first and foremost, a living person, not any other person." A human appendage, whether before life or after death, she is a free body, so do you still want to use the rules of the Shi family and the ropes of the world to bind her?"
The plausible words echoed in the room. Shi Zhongqing opened his mouth, with a look of shock on his face. On the other hand, Zhong Lisheng on the side clenched the handle of the fan and smiled with his palms:
"That's wonderful. A woman can't marry someone without losing herself. I'm tired of that bullshit worldly ethics!"
Having said this, Shi Zhongqing looked at the stubborn-eyed girl in front of him and felt a faint headache, as if he had shot himself in the foot.
Why did he choose such a bad excuse?
It's a pity that things have come to this, and he can only fight to the end and refuse to let go: "In short, you can't take your mother away. According to Dongmu law, you have recognized your ancestors and returned to the clan. I and your mother will worship in the mountains." There is also the reality of husband and wife in the world. She is my wife, Shi Zhongqing, and a woman from the Shi family. You can't take her anywhere. Her fate after death is determined by her husband!"
"Why?!"
"Just because I am your father, just because I am his husband!"
It's like an excerpt. After you choose a role, you have to play it to the end. Today, Shi Zhongqing has decided to play the role of this old-fashioned, pedantic, and most hated dog man!
Just when Shi Xuanling was so angry that she couldn't speak, a hand suddenly held her down. The young man with the sword behind his back took a step forward, protected her behind him, and directly faced Shi Zhongqing, who was incompetent.
"I dare to ask Mr. Shi, according to Dongmu law, a daughter cannot take her mother away. What about the son-in-law?"
The clear and heroic young man's voice suddenly sounded in the room, like a ray of sharp sword energy breaking through the dark clouds, directly tearing out a ray of light in the chaotic sky.
Yue Wujiu raised his head and looked at Shi Zhongqing, his handsome face was smooth, and he said calmly: "Since Mr. Shi keeps using Dongmu law to suppress people, let me ask Mr. Shi, can you still do it?" Remember the law in the Dongmu Law that Emperor Wenchang personally set down?"
Zhong Lisheng and Shi Xuanling had lived on the island for a long time, and the other came from the Qingli Mountains. Naturally, they knew very little about the laws of Dongmu. They didn't understand what Yue Wujiu said, but Shi Zhongqing, a civil servant of the dynasty, knew everything about it. , his old-fashioned and tough face suddenly had cracks.
Emperor Wenchang of the Great Ancestor did indeed make a special law, which started with a folk tea-picking girl named Zhu Feng'e.
Zhu Feng'e has a father who drinks alcohol all the time and beats others to vent his anger. Over the years, she and her mother have received countless punches and injuries. The two mother and daughter can only hug each other to comfort each other, and they shed almost as many tears as Together they form a river.
Later, Zhu Feng'e grew up and married a young carpenter in the town. She finally escaped from her father's clutches, but her mother was not so lucky. She stayed with her alcoholic husband and was beaten and abused twice as hard every day.
Zhu Feng'e felt sorry for her mother, and often took the little carpenter to her house to give her things. However, the little carpenter's parents were both dead, and his mother-in-law treated him very well and treated him like her own son. While he was moved, he also felt sorry for his mother-in-law. Feeling aggrieved by the tragic experience, he often discussed with his wife, racking his brains to think of how to rescue his mother-in-law.
It's a pity that Zhu Feng'e's alcoholic father refused to let her go no matter what. He refused to agree to divorce even if he died. Even after Zhu Feng'e left with the young carpenter, she was so bold that she dared to propose reconciliation with him. The wife's fists and kicks became more and more fierce.
Finally, when he beat his wife violently again, he was caught by the young carpenter and Zhu Feng'e who came to the door. They rushed to stop him, but they were knocked to the ground by the drunkard. The young carpenter looked at his injured mother-in-law and wife, and could no longer bear it. Full of passion, he immediately got into a fight with his drunkard father-in-law.
This matter finally came to court. The so-called Qingtian Master secretly collected Zhu Feng'e's father's money. Not only did he not seek justice for Zhu Feng'e's mother and the young carpenter, but he beat them up thirty times a day. , one had his fingers cut off and was thrown into a cell.
The carpenter relied on his craftsmanship to make a living, but ten of his fingers were pinched off in the yamen, and his livelihood was cut off.
Not only did Zhu Feng'e fail to rescue her mother, but she also fell in love with her own man. The county magistrate who had sentenced the unjust case was sitting in the court, shameless and complacent, and acted like a woman who married and obeyed her husband, ruthlessly It suppresses the backbone of the miserable women, making them tied to their husbands who are worse than pigs and dogs, whether they live or die.Once you get married, you have no freedom. If a daughter wants to take her mother away and rescue her from the devil's cave, there is no way!
Desperate, Zhu Feng'e took her mother covered with bruises. In extreme pain and despair, she came to the river to commit suicide and seek relief. They hugged each other and cried, and after saying "the relationship between mother and daughter will continue in the next life", they They all jumped into the river.
But the miserable mother and daughter did not die because a ranger who was passing by on horseback came to help and rescued them from the river.
After hearing their miserable experiences, the ranger was filled with righteous indignation and led them directly to the Yamen, almost overturning the plaque that read "A Mirror Hanging High".
The county magistrate heard the sound and came over, blowing his beard and glaring with anger. Just as he was ordering everyone to take down the madman, more than a dozen secret guards suddenly jumped out from all around and protected the ranger and Zhu Feng'e's mother and daughter. Don't let the detectives get any closer.
The little county magistrate was immediately dumbfounded. The ranger did not hide it and directly showed a token with a dragon pattern. He was actually the current Holy Emperor, disguised as a ranger and paid a private visit incognito to understand the people's sentiments. This bullshit county magistrate is It just hit his hand!
After that, there was a satisfying reversal of the verdict. The little carpenter was released. The best doctor around the emperor reconnected his hand bones. The drunkard endured all the tortures in the yamen and was imprisoned in a dying state. After being imprisoned, the emperor also asked Zhu Feng'e and her daughter to go to the prison in person to torture the drunkard and repay them ten times the beatings they had suffered in the past many years.
However, Zhu Feng'e and her daughter said they did not want to dirty their hands. They knelt in front of the emperor and asked for a complete separation from this drunkard. From then on, the mother moved to live with her daughter and son-in-law, and never returned to this drunkard. .
The emperor naturally agreed. Not only that, he also made a law because of this case——
Since ancient times, women have married and obeyed their husbands. It is impossible for a daughter to take away her mother. This is not allowed by secular ethics. However, if a son-in-law stands up and is willing to uphold justice and accept his mother-in-law, he can successfully take away his mother on behalf of his wife. her mother.
This law actually sounds quite strange, but it changes "obey the husband when married" into a son-in-law. In short, the daughter has no say in the middle, but one man jumps out to challenge another man. Authority, in short, requires a man to come forward to support a woman.
Although this is extremely unfair to women in the world, it is already a compromise law in Dongmu. After all, this is still a world where men are in power. Laws that are too "deviant" will only cause chaos and fierce protests.
Emperor Wenchang, the great ancestor, was able to make such a "compromise and flexible" law, which was out of benevolence and righteousness, and he fought for a way out for the miserable women among the people, an extremely difficult opportunity.
This law is still in use today. Over the years, few sons-in-law are willing to take back their mother-in-law, and only a few use it. Many officials who are not familiar with the law are not even aware that Dongmu has such a "strange" law.
But Yue Wujiu knew that Shi Zhongqing, the minister, knew it even more clearly!
"According to Mr. Shi, a daughter cannot be the master of her mother, so a son-in-law can do it, right? A son-in-law is like a son-in-law. Today I want to take away the remains of my mother-in-law. Who can stop me? Mr. Shi is familiar with the law, can he even Do you dare to disobey the laws set down by Emperor Wenchang himself?"
The young man's righteous voice echoed through the room, causing Shi Zhongqing to turn pale and open his mouth, unable to respond for a long time.
Yue Wujiu actually took over an army and took advantage of such a loophole to bring out Emperor Wenchang to overwhelm him. How could he stop them again?
Zhong Lisheng saw Shi Zhongqing deflated and unable to speak a word. He couldn't help but marvel in his heart. This sudden reversal of the situation was astonishing to him!
Before he could unfurl his folding fan and hook Yue Wu Jiu's neck to praise him, Shi Zhongqing, who was opposite him, had already suppressed his blush and shouted loudly: "You, who do you think I am my son-in-law?"
As soon as these words came out, both Yue Wujiu and Shi Xuanling changed their expressions at the same time, but Shi Zhongqing responded mercilessly as if he had grasped a snake by the seven inches:
"Master Yue, don't blame Shi for speaking harshly. My daughter has never married you, and who do you think Shi's son-in-law is? The bond between you is just a decree of mutual exile. You have neither paid homage to Gaotang nor You have never worshiped heaven and earth, you have neither a matchmaker nor a betrothal, you have never even had a glass of wine, you are truly nameless and have no status, and you have never been a husband and wife. Do you want to be the son-in-law of the Shi family just by saying a word? ?”
He quickly went through all the reasons in his mind, and finally blurted out as if he was blessed: "It's just that this is against the rules and ethics in the world. Only people who marry should obey their husbands, not their daughters. After all, your mother-in-law is from the Shi family, and her husband is She is still here, what does it mean for you as a daughter to take away her remains, and let her follow you across the ocean and be buried on Yunzhou Island?
