The first legitimate son of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 97 The lonely Liu Yiyi

Li An's house has its own bathroom, and there are two bathrooms, one indoors and one outdoor. In the summer, the trap doors of the upper and lower pipes of the outdoor bathroom will be opened at the same time, so that running water from the river will flow into the pool at any time. , and then flows out from the sewer pipe, there will always be a pool of cool and clean water in the bathroom. Taking a bath in it can not only relieve the heat, but also enjoy hygienic comfort.

Indoors is a large pool that can accommodate ten people. There is hot water in it. There will be hundreds of gauze or kudzu sachets sunk at the bottom of the pool. The sachets are filled with fine powders of various spices. The combined "hundred miscellaneous fragrances" overflow into the water quietly, so that there is always fragrance lingering on the surface of the pool.

It's summer now, so Li An is lying in the bathroom outside his home. Next to Li An, Liu Yiyi, dressed in cool clothes, helps Li An scrub.

Suddenly, Li An looked up at the starry sky and asked: "Yiyi. If a woman gives her most precious thing to a man, what is the reason?"

Liu Yiyi thought for a moment and said, "Then the woman must like that man very much."

"But it's just the first time that a man and a woman meet, and the reason for meeting is that the man cheated on the woman?"

"Huh?" Li An's words made Liu Yiyi slightly surprised and said: "Then why does a woman give her precious things to a man?"

"Yes, I'm asking you. It's obviously the first time the two of them have met, it's obvious that they have no basis for any relationship, and it's obvious that they have some issues. Why... why would a woman do such a thing to a man? What's the reason?
I really don’t understand at all, so I want to ask you? "

It's a pity that Liu Yiyi also shook her head and said: "Lang Jun, I don't know this either. This is an impossible thing. Only the woman should know about this issue."

Regarding Liu Yiyi's answer, Li An nodded affirmatively: "Yes, only the girl should know it. Yiyi asked you a strange question, by the way, has your family moved into Lijiacun?"

As soon as Li An mentioned her home, Liu Yiyi immediately regained her spirits: "Thank you, sir. My family has already moved in, and the house has been assigned, it's all thanks to your husband.

My father and my mother told me that from now on I will be your husband's son when I live, and my ghost when I die. "

"Ah, this is not good, you will get married in the future." Li An chuckled and waved his hand.

However, Liu Yiyi suddenly walked to the bath and looked at Li An and said, "Mr. Yiyi may never be able to marry again!"

"Why...?" Li An was a little surprised.

And Liu Yiyi said with a little bit of bitterness: "Because Yiyi is a widow and a disaster star, whoever marries me will definitely be unlucky."

In fact, many women in the Tang Dynasty and before the Tang Dynasty married widows, and they were all queen-level women, such as the queen of King Zhuangxiang of Qin Ying Yiren, the biological mother of Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng Zhao Ji, and the second daughter of Emperor Jing Liu Qi of Han Dynasty. Empress Ren, Wang Na, the birth mother of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che, and Wu Zetian, the second empress of Emperor Gaozong Li Zhi of the Tang Dynasty and the only orthodox female emperor in ancient times.

Those were all examples of widows marrying, but widows could not marry. This dates back to the Song Dynasty. A group of "professional scholars" got mad and started shouting that starving to death is a small matter and being dishonest is a big deal. Female comrades also suffered great misfortune, and the concept of women's chastity became more and more strict on the basis of advocating ancient times.

In the Yuan and Ming dynasties, the concept of women's chastity was further strengthened, and the government actually issued clear and specific regulations on rewards for women's chastity and punishments for women who failed to behave chastity.For example, the "Ming Huidian" stipulates: "If a folk widow is thirty years old and her husband has died, and if she does not change her vows after fifty, she will be given a banquet to the family, and will be exempted from the family's servants." If a widow keeps the vows until she is 50 years old, not only will she get a banquet. Even the whole family is honored and does not have to do official service.Under the guidance of official money, the number of women observing the festival has increased dramatically.

Do not keep?

Then dip the pig cage. It's all about money and glory, otherwise who cares whether you are a widow or not?
In the Tang Dynasty, divorce and widowhood were really not a thing, but Liu Yiyi, a widower, was a special case. This widower meant that after a man and a woman got engaged, but the man died before they got married, the woman became pregnant because of this. A widow is called a widower.

A woman who is widowed before marrying is usually considered to be "hard-fledged" and "cowardly", making it difficult for her to remarry.Under the control of this theory, if the fiancé dies first, the unfortunate woman often leaves a deep psychological shadow, thinking that she is "unlucky" and most likely to be alone for the rest of her life.

If Liu Yiyi hadn't been sent to Li An, she might have committed suicide, and the Liu Xiadi family would have been criticized. She was lucky to be by Li An's side and became Li An's personal maid. An gave too many benefits to the people around him and became a gentleman.

Under this premise, the pressure on Liu Yiyi was slightly relieved. If she had not become Li An's maid, Liu Yiyi would not have ended well.

"Hey." Knowing Liu Yiyi's difficulties, Li An sighed: "Yiyi, don't think too much. If you don't want to marry, don't marry. If you stay by your husband's side from now on, I can't treat you badly if you have three meals a day. Langjun, I don’t think you are a disaster star.”

"Mr...." Li An's words moved Liu Yiyi to tears. Then Li An saw Liu Yiyi cry. He was a little nervous and wanted to help Liu Yiyi wipe her tears. Who knew that he got up and stood down together? With a slip, Liu Yiyi was thrown directly into the bathtub.

Suddenly the skin-to-skin contact between the two made Li An and Liu Yiyi tremble like electric currents. Li An wanted to push Liu Yiyi away, but unexpectedly, Liu Yiyi took the initiative to hug Li An at this time: "Lang Jun. I can do it. Yiyi will always be her husband's person in this life, and even if she dies, she will still be her husband's ghost. Yiyi will not marry her husband. As long as her husband needs her, Yiyi can come and go as soon as he calls.

I will never drag Mr. Lang down, I just ask him to cover Yiyi Pianwa’s head! "

To be honest, Li An is a man, and he actually feels hot in his heart, but Li An quickly calmed down. The main reason is that Liu Yiyi is too young and underage. If Li An really did something to Liu Yiyi, then It's really too beastly.

Of course, Li An couldn't reject Liu Yiyi directly, because Liu Yiyi was a person with low self-esteem, if Li An rudely refused, then all Liu Yiyi could think of was death.

So Li An showed a smile at this time and hugged Liu Yiyi: "Okay. From now on, you will be my Li An. However, you are still too young now. Wait until you grow up a little bit, okay?"

Liu Yiyi was hugged by Li An. With such a promise, her heart was slightly settled. She actually didn't want to do anything, but more wanted a foundation that could make her happy and lead a happy life.

Li An gave a promise, and Liu Yiyi would no longer be afraid, and her heart would settle down.

"Yes!" Sure enough, Liu Yiyi nodded happily after getting Li An's promise. Seeing the little guy nodding, Li An also smiled slightly: "Okay. Let's go out quickly after washing, otherwise Li Duoduo If you wait too long, you’ll lose your temper again.”

"Yes!" Liu Yiyi smiled lightly and agreed happily.
