The lucky star of rebirth

Chapter 156
"It's really not what I mean, it's really not..."

Crying, Mrs. Zheng collapsed on the ground, and shook her head vigorously: "They took advantage of the fact that I had just given birth to a child and was unconscious, so they took Liuyatou away. When I woke up, I realized that the cruel man was going to bury Liuyatou alive."

"What's going on." Seeing Zheng's crying, Ji Songxian felt a little soft-hearted, and hurriedly asked Zhuoliang to help her up: "I didn't say anything, why is this so?"

She then ordered Luqi to bring a glass of water and give Zheng a few sips, telling her to take a break.

After a while, Ji Songxian asked: "What's going on here, please tell me clearly."

Mrs. Zheng also regained her composure at this moment, sat down and slowly told how the Hu family looked forward to their son, how they sent their daughter away, and how they stopped Hu Da.

She has kept these things in her heart for many years, and it almost crushed her. Now that her son has someone to talk about, he feels less uncomfortable.

After hearing this, Ji Songxian thought that it was not bad for Mrs. Zheng, at least she really cared about her children, but Hu Da was really cruel as a father. If he had known this earlier, he shouldn't have pleaded for him in the first place.

"What are your plans in the future?" Ji Songxian asked, and then said: "The child has already been given away, so I can't give it to you. Besides, in the situation in your family, the child may die when he follows you. It's better to follow others."

Mrs. Zheng wiped away her tears, but stopped crying, with a determined look on her face, she gritted her teeth and said, "I originally thought that if a woman gets married, she will have to die forever, and I also want to live a good life with Hu Da. The Hu family has been filial to their parents-in-law for so many years, and they have taken care of the housework. Except for not giving birth to a son, they have not done anything wrong to the Hu family, but what about them... I can see the matter of Liuya, they can take care of their own flesh and blood. They were all buried alive, which shows that they don’t treat me as a human being. If I want to live with such a family, I don’t know what will happen. In the end, I can’t say that I will end up in a tragic death.”

The more she talked, the more resolute Mrs. Zheng became: "Furthermore, my eldest daughter seems to have grown up too. Their family looks down on their daughter, and they may sell my eldest daughter at any time. For me, For the sake of the two children I only have left by my side, I want to divorce."

"Heli?" Rao Liang almost screamed out, he really didn't expect this Mrs. Zheng to have such determination to say such words.

Ji Songxian also felt that it was not easy for the Zheng family to make up their minds. Nowadays, many women will never reconcile even if they are tortured to death. After exhaustion, they want to not be abandoned, but they never think about what will happen if they leave this family.

In fact, Ji Songxian was also thinking about it. Speaking of which, there are few girls in the countryside nowadays, and many brothers from poorer families can’t get married. Such people don’t care whether those who have married are still big girls. As long as he can marry a daughter-in-law, even a fool, blind, deaf, and dumb can do it, let alone someone as shrewd and capable as Zheng.

It's just that Mrs. Zheng, who is not very old and can bear children, has reconciled with the Hu family on the front foot, but there are many matchmakers coming to the door on the back foot.

Just looking at Zheng's meaning, it seems that he doesn't want to remarry.

"What about after reconciliation?" Ji Songxian felt a little interesting, so he inevitably paid more attention.

Mrs. Zheng spread her hands: "I have these hands, and I can do anything to support myself and my girl. My wife probably doesn't know that when I was in my natal family, I was fond of playing since I was a child. I often used my father to make carpenter's tools or wood shavings. Or help father measure wood, carpenter can also do some work, and learn embroidery and weaving from my mother, I think more, I have improved several patterns of weaving, even the loom can be improved Yes, if we get divorced, I can live a good life with this skill."

"Oh?" Ji Songxian became more and more curious: "You still have this hand? But there is the cloth you weave, can you show me?"

Mrs. Zheng lowered her head and smiled slightly: "Yes, when I came here, to thank my wife, I specially selected a piece of cloth and brought it with me, and it is now being kept in the porter's room."

Ji Songxian immediately asked someone to fetch it, and after a while, he took a piece of cloth and entered the door.

Ji Songxian hastily asked Zhuo Liang to change it over for her to see, but saw that the cloth was really well woven, it looked shallow and soft, but the pattern was very beautiful, the pattern seemed real, and the colors matched well, so she took a quick look The gorgeousness is unmatched.

Ji Songxian was amazed at first glance, and after looking carefully, he admired Zheng's skillful hands and ingenuity even more.

"This pattern? You can show others this cloth." Ji Songxian hurriedly asked again, already having some thoughts in his heart.

Mrs. Zheng shook her head: "I wove this for nothing when I was pregnant. I didn't tell the Hu family. I thought that I would wait for the sixth girl to be born. I took this cloth and exchanged it for silver for my mother-in-law. Let her mother-in-law not take the six If you send the girl away, you can ask me to take care of her, how would you know..."

Having said that, Mrs. Zheng lowered her head again.

Ji Songxian knew that she was still sad, and sighed: "This is also helpless. There are many patriarchs in the world, but they don't want to have no women. Where do men come from? Whose mother is not a woman, and whose family doesn't have a sister? So that's it. These people crawled out of women's stomachs, grew up on women's milk, and when they turned around, they looked down on women to the dust. Don't you know that this is the greatest ingratitude."

"That's right." Rao Liang also said resentfully and unfairly: "If you want to have boys, as time goes by, there will be no more women in this world. Isn't it going to be extinct?"

Ji Songxian shook his head with a smile, and said to Zheng Shi: "You are a good person. It's a pity that you have suffered so much and finally realized clearly. You may live a good life in the future, and you may not be able to live a good life."

At this point, Ji Songxian still felt a little panicked and bored in his heart, so he moved around and said to Mrs. Zheng: "Don't learn from the bad habits of the world. Others look down on women, we women have to look down on ourselves first. Don’t say anything about yourself, I’ll just teach you the same thing, if others look down on you, you’ll take my words and throw them in the face.”

"My wife is a person who knows the book and etiquette. What you said must be good." Zheng smiled at this time. She felt that Ji Songxian was very reasonable and very kind. I feel tight in my heart.

Ji Songxian beckoned her to come closer, and with water on his fingers, he gestured on the table, and first wrote a male character and told Zheng Shi: "This is male, with a field on the top and a force on the bottom. Do you know what this means?"

Mrs. Zheng shook her head, and Ji Songxian smiled: "Today's characters are all evolved from pictographs in ancient times. Speaking of which, the earliest times were not like what we are now. At that time, women were superior to men, and women were respected in all mortals. , whose children don't know their father, only know their mother, and they all follow their mother's surname. Look at those surnames today, all those with the word "female" next to them are clan surnames in the earliest days, because women were respected at that time, so they all took the surname Next to the word, such as Jiang, such as Ji, etc."

"Is that so?" Not only Mrs. Zheng, but also Ruoliang and Luqi were dumbfounded, and Mrs. Zheng admired him even more: "My wife really knows a lot. She knows so much about the past and the present. It's really admirable. Listen to me. That being said, I'm pretty sure."

"Because of this, I thought, this character existed around that time, and later evolved into our current characters." Ji Songxian smiled and continued: "It's like male characters, men at that time worked hard to make them. Those who work hard, so go up, one field and one force, that is, the coolie in the field, the man who makes the strength in the field is male, and the word "female", you see, crossed and hugged, and stands above the sky, this is female, just look at these two words , who can say that women are useless, and look down on women."

When Ji Songxian explained it this way, Mrs. Zheng thought for a while, then sighed and said, "I just realized that I have spent all these years in vain. These two words are not difficult to write. I knew two words when I was in my mother's house." Both men and women can recognize two characters, but I have never thought of so many, and I am not as detailed as my wife thinks, so I said, this knowledge depends on who learns it, just like me, even if I can read. It's nothing but being bullied by others, such as madam, just these two words can tell so much knowledge."

Raoliang and Luqi also had eyes full of admiration for Ji Songxian.

Ji Songxian smiled wryly and shook his head: "I'm just talking to you, if those old masters outside heard this, they might scold me."

Speaking of this, she said to Zheng Shi: "Don't be afraid, just come to me if you have anything, and I will support you. In fact, I also took in a few poor women before, and now I also find some for them." Work, so that they can support themselves. I am busy these days, and I want to get some property when I have free time. You just came. I see that you are good at craftsmanship. Besides, you and the empress will inevitably have difficulties in making ends meet. , I thought it would be better for us to partner up, I will provide money and people, and you will provide skills, how about we set up a textile business?"

When she said this, Zheng immediately became overjoyed. Although she was determined to reconcile, she was still worried about her livelihood. It is not easy for a woman of this kind of world to live a good life. , coupled with the appearance of her natal family, she and her parents don't know what to do, or they don't accept her. At that time, it will be difficult for her to live with the two girls.

However, Ji Songxian said that he could help her, not to mention partnering with Ji Songxian in business, even if she was asked to work for Ji Songxian to get paid, she would be willing.

She is very willing to Ji Songxian's identity alone. The wife of Jin Yiwei's commander is also the princess personally appointed by His Majesty. If this identity is put out, not to mention her, even her daughter can live a good life after following her.

In the future, they will live well, no matter how regretful the Hu family is, no matter how daring they are, they will not dare to come here to find trouble.

"Yes, yes, yes." Mrs. Zheng quickly nodded and agreed: "I don't know how to thank my lady for saving my Liuya, not to mention my lady partnering with me, even if I am asked to work in vain."

"You said it." Ji Songxian laughed out loud: "How can I make you work for nothing? Then what have I become? If you are willing, then I will wait. Now that it is the end of the year, this matter is too late Don't be busy, I'll find someone to go back with you first, and after finishing the reconciliation and separation, I'll find you a place to live, and we'll get busy again in the spring."

"Success." Mrs. Zheng agreed cruelly: "Make peace as soon as possible, and I will take my two daughters away from the fire pit as soon as possible."
