Yin Ruhua had already followed Situ Ji to the mountains.
But she felt a little depressed sitting in the carriage.
Situ Ji said: "The widow will not have any big problems in her future life. You don't have to worry too much."
Yin Ruhua leaned in his arms, "I know, I can tell by looking at her hands that she is a hard-working woman."
"You also sent those wedding gifts." Situ Ji said warmly.
She was very smart and did not send good pieces of cloth. The two pieces of cloth were just ordinary pieces of cloth that they could use. The pig was given as an adult pig, which could be sold to get some money to meet the urgent needs of the winter, but the cow was specially given.
I chose a half-sized calf.
This new wedding is not worth much in total, but it is a big help.
But they still have to live their lives on their own. Having too many things with their status will only attract more jealousy and controversy, so just stop there.
What she did was very measured.
Yin Ruhua looked at him and said, "Your Highness, there is no need to comfort me. I have nothing to do. I was just thinking... why not encourage widows to remarry?"
Situ Ji looked at her and said, "Do you think it is right for a widow to remarry?"
Yin Ruhua pursed her lips, wanting to say something but not daring to say it.
"You said, I forgive you for not being guilty."
As soon as Yin Ruhua heard this, she decided to be bold again, "Of course it is right to remarry. It is wrong not to allow remarriage, and it is a big mistake!" After saying that, she pursed her lips and looked at him.
Situ Ji's eyebrows did not move.
"When I went to the manor before, I heard the old woman on the manor say, "Marry a man, dress and eat with a man." She told me why women should marry and have children? It's not just to find someone to rely on.
Are you looking for a man to support you? A man is the backbone of the family. If this backbone has collapsed, can’t a woman find another way to make a living?"
Situ Ji didn't say anything, just listened to her quietly.
Seeing that he was not angry, Yin Ruhua continued, "A widow remarries, at a small level, so that she can have a way of survival. But at a larger level, it is actually for the prosperity and reproduction of our country."
Situ Ji raised his eyebrows and said, "Go on."
Since Yin Ruhua decided to get rid of her enchanting image, she did not change her expression, "Your Highness, do you think that if a widow remarries, will she have children? The daughter she gave birth to will continue to marry and have children when she grows up.
If you give birth to sons, when they grow up, those who are capable can go to the front lines to serve as soldiers to protect the country, and those who are incompetent can stay in their hometowns to reclaim wasteland and cultivate a lot. They are all strong labor forces."
"I don't know what's happening on the front line, but I've heard that frictions occasionally occur. How many soldiers will die heroically? How many people will we lose?"
"Where does the population come from? They are not born from women. If a woman becomes a widow and cannot remarry, isn't this a loss for the country?"
"A widow can have at least one or two children. At most, it's not impossible to have three or five children. As long as they can be fed, they can have children."
"One widow is like this. Imagine if ten widows remarried, a hundred widows remarried, a thousand or two thousand? How many more people could be born from this?"
"Like this young widow, if she lives with her son and daughter, she will of course keep her reputation, but how difficult will her life be? If her son and daughter don't have enough to eat and clothing, whether they can grow up is another matter. In the end, they may not be able to
He will also be known as a Kofkozi."
"But if she remarries her brother-in-law, he will not only support her nieces and nephews, but her life will also be easy. She will definitely give birth to children for her brother-in-law in the future, and she will live a very happy and happy life. One is that the future of mother and child is uncertain, like a candle in the wind.
, will be extinguished at any time. The other is to reorganize the family and live a happy life."
She looked at him and said, "Your Highness, which of these two endings do you think is better?"
"In both public and private matters, the latter is the best." Situ Ji couldn't help but rub her hand. He didn't know that she still had such a vision and outlook.
Encouraging widows to remarry will indeed benefit the country and the people.
Yin Ruhua was a little disgusted again, "Not allowing widows to remarry is a rule made by women from aristocratic families who claim to be role models for women. It really doesn't hurt to stand up and talk. If you want to keep the rules, you can keep it, and no one will stop you, right? But
They don’t even want to think about how difficult it is for the women down there.”
"How do you know so much?" Situ Ji was actually surprised. He looked at her delicate face, and it was obvious that she was someone who had no fingers in the mud.
But talking about this is really a lot of knowledge.
"I heard from my grandma on the manor that when a daughter is married in a farmhouse, it is a rare honor to make an extra set of clothes for the daughter to take to her husband's house. Most of them marry with nothing. How can girls from aristocratic families like us have such wealth?
So much dowry? Like when I married His Highness, my father loved me, my aunt was my only daughter, plus my grandmother and the others, they all collected a dowry of nearly 10,000 silver for me. Of course, my dowry was also because I married His Highness.
The family didn't want to bury the girl too much, so they gave her too much, but if a girl from a famous family gets married, she will get a dowry of two to three thousand taels, which is as different as a girl from a peasant girl getting married. "
"With the support of her mother's family and the dowry, there is no problem even if she does not remarry. She will always be hungry and cold. But they really can't do it in a peasant family. Why do girls from aristocratic families have to use their own rules to restrain them?
How about them?"
Yin Ruhua spoke clearly and logically.
She was especially grateful to her aunt for her foresight.
Her aunt used to take her to visit the manor, and she would always let her see more of the outside world.
As for Yin Ruhua's own personality problem, she also likes to listen to the farmer's grandmother telling her life stories, and she listens to them with great interest every time.
I really know a lot about these things.
It is precisely because of this that she can understand how difficult life is outside.
She also knew how difficult it would be for her aunt to support her in the Hou Mansion after the decline of the Fan family.
She doesn't understand anything, nor does she know anything, so she is very clear and clear about what she wants.
From the beginning, she came to wish Situ Ji a happy life with great wealth.
I also made up my mind not to lose my heart, but in the end, I was conquered by him, and now I really love him so much that I can't help it.
But love is love, but the image that should be established must also be established.
She has always used her delicate, charming and enchanting appearance to trick him into eating and drinking, but he now wants her to be the crown princess, and he wants her to be his head wife.
Then of course she must establish her own image and let him see other aspects of her, instead of just asking for favors.
When she was in the boudoir, her aunt even asked her to pay attention to her manners.
Tell her that this is how a legitimate daughter from a serious family behaves.
Her aunt has always made her strong and soft, but soft and charming can also support her family, depending on her future status.
If she is a concubine, there is nothing she can do. But if she is a wife, she will not be unable to support the family.
But if she could be an upright and upright wife, who would be willing to engage in flirting and coquettishness?
What woman doesn't want to be a dignified and capable lady.
