Rebirth of First Daughter

April is the season of fruit harvest. Fujian sent fresh fruits such as mango, pineapple and loquat. However, because the road is far away, it is difficult to transport, and Yuxi and Yunqing are not people who want to eat, so the quantity is not much.

The original quantity was not much, and these fruits still need to be rewarded. There was not much left in the palace.

Looking at the mango and pineapple and other things, there was no loquat in sight. Shumeng asked the boy who sent them: "I heard that a batch of loquats were presented below?"

The old lady said with a smile, "the eldest princess likes to eat loquats most, so the empress ordered her to send all the loquats to Zhanghua palace."

The book dream's face sank.

The mother-in-law apologized a few words and quickly retreated. However, after going back, she reported it back to mother Qu.

When Tan Aoshuang saw the pineapple cut by shumeng, she was surprised and asked, "how come there are no loquats?" Tan Aoshuang likes loquat very much. When she was in the tan family, she ate loquat every day in the mature season. However, if you eat a small bowl every day, you won't eat much.

Shumeng said: "princess, the loquat empress of Shanggong has all been given to the eldest princess."

Tan Aoshuang also did not care, said: "elder sister pregnant, mother first think of her is also very common."

Shumeng said: "princess, loquat is a small thing. But the eldest princess has never seen a married girl return to her mother's home for childbirth. It's too unruly. It's all nonsense to say that the empress respects the rules. " When she said that, she kept her voice down.

Tan Aoshuang also feels that Yuxi does things as he likes, and he doesn't pay as much attention to the rules as the outside world. However, it's one thing to think in my heart, and another thing to say: "forget it this time, and I'll send you back to Tan's next time." You don't have to stay in the palace and bring trouble to her

The book dream busily lowers the head, dare not say more.

After dinner this day, Yuxi said to tan Aoshuang, "follow me to the garden and take a walk."

Tan Aoshuang's heart jumped, but she said with a low brow: "yes, mother."

The Royal Garden in April is beautiful. But Tan Aoshuang is not in the mood to watch at this time. From Kunning palace to here, Yuxi didn't say a word. It made her feel uneasy.

At the foot of the huge osmanthus tree, Yuxi stopped and asked, "I heard that I gave all the loquats to jujubes, but I didn't send them to Fuqing palace. You are very dissatisfied."

Tan Aoshuang's face changed greatly.

Without waiting for her explanation, Yuxi said, "I know you are not such a mean person." If Tan Aoshuang is so narrow-minded, she can't look up to her.

Tan Aoshuang's heart is slightly loose, but soon Yuxi's words let her mention her heart.

Yuxi said faintly: "however, I know you have some complaints about jujube entering the palace for childbirth. Even if you eat with the whole family, you don't think it's proper. " These jade Xi all see in the eye, but she has never said. She just wanted to see when Tan Aoshuang would raise an objection with her. Unfortunately, I didn't wait so long. It has to be said that Tan Aoshuang's endurance is good. In other words, Tan Tuo's teaching is very successful.

"The daughter-in-law didn't..." but with Yuxi's penetrating eyes, Tan Aoshuang couldn't say what she said.

Yuxi said: "you are familiar with the four female books. Do you agree with the four female books?"

Tan Aoshuang didn't know what medicine Yuxi gourd sold. After thinking about it for a while, she said: "the four female books spread the year before last, they have their own merits."

Yuxi said with a smile: "the seven chapters of the female ring are humble and weak, husband and wife, respect and caution, women's behavior, concentration, Qu Cong and uncle and sister. The theory of inferiority is that women are not born with men; Husband and wife let women take husband as their heaven, so they should serve them respectfully and cautiously. "

Tan Aoshuang did not expect that Yuxi was also familiar with the ring.

Yuxi said: "concentrate on it, emphasizing that a virgin does not marry a second husband, while a man can remarry when his wife dies, and a woman can never remarry when her husband dies. In Ban Zhao's mind, it is unreasonable for a woman to go to court. If according to what she said, those women whose husband died and remarried are unforgivable. In this way, widows who have lost their husbands after the war can only keep the memorial tablet, even if they can't live with their children and starve to death, they can't remarry. The adult man and the soldiers who came back from the war will die alone if they can't marry the daughter of the Huang family. "

The former dynasty would choose some women whose husband died but did not remarry as examples and give them chastity archways. This thing has been cancelled by Yuxi.

Tan Ao frost listen to a Leng a Leng of, she feel jade Xi say of wrong, but don't know how to refute. After returning to God, Tan Aoshuang hung her head and repeated the sentence: "empress, if the ring can be handed down for thousands of years, it has its own merits."

"Well, you're quite right. There are merits. But it's more dross. " Women's ring, to be exact, is the female four books, the shackles that men use to enslave women. But Yuxi did not continue this topic with Tan Aoshuang, but talked about the marriage of triplets. Yuxi means to let her help manage.

As a long sister-in-law, this is also her responsibility, Tan Aoshuang agreed.

Back in Fuqing palace, Tan Aoshuang sat in a daze on the chair. I have to say that Yuxi's words today have a great impact on her.

When Kai Hao came back, he saw Tan Aoshuang frowning, a very tangled look.

Sitting beside Tan Aoshuang, Qihao asked with a smile: "the brow is so wrinkled that it can kill flies. What's the problem? "

Tan Aoshuang thought about it and told Qihao what Yuxi said to her today: "husband, do you also think that the female ring is not good?"

Qihao said: "after the peace of parents, the population was only 30% of that before the war. Widows make up a quarter of this group. If a widow can't remarry according to the rules of the ring, there will be no population in Chengdu two decades later. " This is why the court encouraged widows to remarry.

Tan Aoshuang is a backyard woman. It's normal that she doesn't understand these things. However, as long as she is willing to learn, and then change, Qihao thinks it's OK.

"So it is." Tan Tuo will show Tan Aoshuang the newspaper and help her solve her doubts. Can tan Tuo is the view that men are superior to women, naturally will not guide her in this respect.

Kai Hao said with a smile: "my mother told you that these must have a purpose. You can learn from her." As long as his wife can have half of her mother's wisdom and open-minded, he will be satisfied.

After two days, Yuxi took Tan Aoshuang out.

Tan Aoshuang was uneasy. She got into the carriage and asked, "queen mother, where are we going?"

"Take you to see what kind of life folk women live." Let her know the living environment of folk women, maybe we can change the inherent ideas.

Yuxi first takes Tan Aoshuang to an alley. Tan Aoshuang is confused when he hears a cry from a distance.

Turning the corner, Tan Aoshuang sees a slovenly man beating a woman. The woman was beaten black and blue, bleeding from the corners of her mouth, still holding the man's leg: "this is Shuanger's medicine money. If you want to take Shuanger, you will die."

The man kicked the woman to the ground with one foot. Seeing that the woman got up and wanted to hold his leg, he scolded angrily: "if you dare to block my way again, I will throw the money losing goods into the moat."

The woman was too scared to move. The man quickly disappeared in the alley with the money.

Tan Aoshuang couldn't bear it. She went over and took off a gold bracelet from her hand and gave it to the woman: "the child's condition can't be delayed. Take the child to the hospital to see a doctor and apply for medicine." She went out without silver. She took off her ring and other jewelry. Only the desk was covered with sleeves, so it didn't come down.

The woman was stunned, and then quickly took the gold bracelet to tan Aoshuang solid solid kowtow three heads: "thank you for your kindness." Tan Aoshuang is not old and doesn't wear a woman's bun, so she is considered a girl.

The woman then got up and went home, carrying her child to the hospital.

Yuxi returned to the carriage, leaned on the pillow and said, "this woman's surname is Yao, and her husband is eating, drinking, whoring and gambling. Shuanger is her fourth child. She is only four years old this year. "

Tan Aoshuang stunned: "so many children, that man is still like this, how can children live?"

Yuxi laughed, the smile did not have a trace of temperature: "the front three children, all sold by the man. The second eldest is the girl who was sold to the building by him, and the third is the son who was sold to a rich family. The money he sold was whored and gambled by that man. "

Tan Aoshuang's eyes widened.

Yuxi asked: "if it was you, the man sold his own children and also sold his daughter to the building, what would you do?"

Tan Aoshuang has never thought about this problem, but her children are the flesh of her mother. She will do her best to protect her children: "I will fight with him to protect them."

A touch of relief flashed in Yuxi's eyes and said, "but this woman knows that her husband has sold her child to the building. She has done nothing but cry for her and her child's life. Now you have given the bracelet to save the little girl's life. In two or three years, the child will repeat the fate of her two sisters and be sold to the building. " It was a relief for the child to die like this.

Tan Aoshuang's face was a little white. After a while, she couldn't help but ask, "mother, why don't we help them?" In fact, what she wants to say is why Yuxi doesn't help her.

Yuxi shook his head and said, "help? How can I help you? In her heart, husband is heaven, she can only obey, not resist It is said that it is better to be a mother. The children born in October are sold to dirty places and dare not resist. Such a person, jade Xi just don't waste that effort to help.

Thinking of what Yuxi said to her two days ago, Tan Aoshuang understood: "we can help the child."

Yuxi said, "but there are thousands of children with such fate in the world. You can save one, but you can't save all."

Tan Aoshuang is very clever, immediately understand Yuxi's meaning: "mother, what do you mean, just now that woman was poisoned by the four female books?" But she didn't think it had much to do with the ring. It was the woman who was too weak that she fell into such a miserable situation.

Yuxi did not speak, but said: "this matter, you have to think about it."
