Black Widow became the richest man by farming

Chapter 231 Chastity (Part Two)
"You dare to speculate on the holy will without authorization, you are so bold and reckless." Master Lu said angrily, pointing at Ye Sanniang.

Zheyuan and the others were so frightened that they hurriedly apologized, "Don't dare, dare not!"

"Hey! This crime cannot be borne by civilian women. Do you have to ask the emperor what he means?" Ye Sanniang resolutely denied, "On the one hand, the civilian women are suppressed by the chastity archway, and on the other hand Let the widow remarry. People's women have nothing to do, it's better to ask clearly than to be confused!"

"Hehe..." Mrs. Lu smiled, her red lips overflowing with small laughter.

"Ma'am, what are you laughing at?" Lord Lu tilted his head slightly and looked at his wife.

"Ye Sanniang, let's be honest, why do you dislike the chaste archway so much that you risk your head to disrespect the decree?" Mrs. Lu looked at her with clear starry eyes and said, "With this chastity archway the naked eye Visible benefits, especially for your two sons, the road to scientific research will be much smoother than others. The government will also give substantial rewards every year."

"I know, for little people like us, this is an overwhelming wealth, but we can't have it." Ye Sanniang looked at them sincerely and said frankly, "It's a bit exaggerated to say, I don't want the whole world Women are crushed by the mountain of chastity archway."

"I said Ye Sanniang, do you think too much, you can't represent all the women in the world." Master Lu said with a funny look at her.

"I only represent myself. I refuse." Ye Sanniang looked at him coldly and said, she pursed her lips and looked at them and said, "Do you know the origin of the chastity archway?"

"I know, Qin Chao is here, Widow Qing." Mrs. Lu looked at her with staring eyes and said.

"The earliest chastity archways were mostly built in the name of 'Jie', mostly in the name of ancient scholars to praise their mother's upbringing." Ye Sanniang looked at them with cold eyes and said, "However, what is it now?" He sneered and said, "The word 'zhen' is the main character, and it has become a mountain that weighs on women." He snorted coldly and said, "Let women talk about chastity, what about a man's integrity! Have you ever kept it?"

"Why do you let your wife and daughter be humiliated if you keep your integrity!" Ye Sanniang suddenly raised her voice and looked at Master Lu coldly.

Master Lu was stared away by her sharp eyes, which made him a little ashamed as a man.

Mrs. Lu stared at the embarrassed husband with wide almond eyes, and reached out to hold his hand.

"If the husband and wife have a very good relationship, it is their own business to be widowed voluntarily after the death of the husband, or to die in love." Ye Sanniang looked at them with dark eyes and said, "But Mrs. Lu just said that there is something behind the chastity archway. Huge benefits. You two tell me, are there any volunteers here!" Pointing to the outside, he said, "Not to mention Lian Lixia, who was locked in the house and never saw the blue sky!"

"Uh..." Mrs. Lu looked at her with dim eyes and said, "Yes! Rich families compare the number of chastity archways, and even local officials use the number of chastity archways as evidence of their political achievements. Countless women died of starvation and were buried.” He closed his eyes and said, “After the scientific creed came out, how many women swallowed gold, hanged themselves, jumped into wells and other tragedies. "

Mrs. Lu said angrily, "The most exasperating thing is that it's a natural law for a husband to stick to his chastity, and even if an unmarried husband dies, he must also be chaste."

"Wangmen widow!" Zheyuan blurted out.

"That's right! You know it too!" Mrs. Lu said with a flash of surprise in her eyes.

"I've seen it before. She was married at the same age as Hua, and was tortured to death before she was 30 years old." Zheyuan couldn't help but sighed, "When she died, her hair was all white, and her hands were rough like those of a rich family. daughter in law."

"Some places have changed the taste." Mrs. Lu said with a dark face, "I even want to die for molesting a man, and if someone accidentally sees his arm and ankle, I have to marry this man even if I don't die. Regardless of the quality How's the sex? It's just nonsense!"

"In short, our women's lives are closely tied to the word chastity. If there is a slight change, we will die for the whole festival." Ye Sanniang glared at them with a storm in her eyes, "Chaste and strong women, how many victims have been attacked?" Obedience to death. You are a victim yourself, how many of them committed suicide in front of you after being rescued." He said sharply, "Why? Why?"

"Because returning home is also an ending that shames the family, is kicked out, or is directly killed." Madam Lu turned her face away and shed tears.

"A knife stabbed by a relative is chilling." Ye Sanniang pointed her index finger at the sky angrily, "A chaste woman was forced to marry by her relatives to death, a daughter raised by a child is not yet married, and a man who refuses to be molested by her husband dies." Pointing outside, she said, " Every year, local squires, patriarchs, and village chiefs will reward the officials at all levels for festive women and martyrs." He said sarcastically, "What is it? Chaste memorial archway, chaste plaque."

With a cold snort, he continued, "Women who have been inscribed by Jingbiao will be named on the square, and they will be set up in the shrine after death, where they will be sacrificed in the Spring and Autumn Period." He laughed exaggeratedly, "The government will return 30 taels of 'Fang Yin'." Stretching out three fingers, he said yin and yang strangely , "30 taels! There are a lot!" Looking at them blankly, he said again, "If the deeds of Jie Lie are particularly outstanding, the emperor will personally 'give poems, chapters, plaques and satin horses.' The names of Jie women and martyrs can be included in official history and local chronicles. "Sneakingly said, "Go and check the history of the previous dynasty, how many women died for their husbands, either voluntarily, or voluntarily." Sneered, "Now we need to import, these widows who keep the chastity will not keep it. If the population is too large, do we have to guard again!"

Ye Sanniang looked at them with eyes like black holes and said, "Is Jie Lie difficult? Difficult! Men know it is extremely difficult, so we should commend him. Is Jie Lie bitter? Bitter! Men know it is very difficult, so we should commend him."

"That's why you don't want the chastity archway to die." Lord Lu looked at her with dark eyes and said, "To be honest, it's very difficult to change once! Even if the higher ups have the intentions, they can be wealthy, gentry and rich. They admire it!"

"It's very easy. Do you want to press the chastity archway on women, or cut off the imperial examination path for your descendants, what do you think they will choose?" Ye Sanniang rolled her eyes gracefully and said.

"Hiss..." Master Lu gasped when he heard the words, the road to the imperial examination is the lifeblood of a man.

"Actually, as long as the government doesn't promote it, and there is no connection of interests, it will naturally dissipate." Ye Sanniang looked at them with glazed eyes and said, "It will make people flock to them if they follow the example."

Lord Lu nodded thoughtfully, doing what he likes, and doing whatever he can to achieve his goal.
