The peasant girl who escaped the desert: she cried when she found the cruel prince

Chapter 448 Do you really understand?
Jingli's face began to have a chill: "Now the world is in chaos, people are in dire straits, refugees are running around, and there are countless women who have been bullied, robbed, beaten, scolded, or abducted."

"According to Miss Wei, these women can only die to thank the world?"

Wei Lin still raised her head and said, "Yes, the laws of heaven are cyclical, and separation is a common occurrence in troubled times. As a woman, you should obey the laws of heaven. If you are unclean, you should kill yourself to avoid ruining the family's reputation!"

Jing Li said solemnly: "Then do you know how many women will die as you said?"

Wei Lin remained silent for a long time before speaking: "Census enumeration is the responsibility of the Ministry of Household Affairs, and it is not something that the princess or other women like me should be concerned about!"

"So, what should you be concerned about?" Jing Li asked, looking directly into Wei Lin's eyes.

"You are a girl in a boudoir who has never paid homage to the court or saved the people from disaster. How can you decide the life and death of millions of women with just a pen and a mouth?"

Wei Lin still held her head high and did not lower her head when faced with Jing Li's aggressive questions: "So, is the princess trying to use her status to oppress me?"

"The princess is a woman who is supposed to stay in the backyard and take care of the prince's internal affairs, but instead she shows up at the gate of the city to meet with ministers and officials. Is this what a woman should do?"

"Not only is the princess like this, but she also takes the women of the family out for a walk. Don't you think it's immoral?"

Jing Li almost laughed angrily: "Miss Wei, I wonder if you have ever escaped?"

Wei Lin pursed her lips and said nothing. She was born as the eldest daughter of a big family. How could she flee with those untouchables?
Jing Li saw the disdain in her eyes, "You have never experienced anything like this before. The world has collapsed and the people have been displaced."

"Even in today's world, it is not uncommon for people to die of hunger and change their sons to eat."

"Under such circumstances, less than half of the women escaped, and you actually want them to die to apologize. Is it possible that because of your virtuous conduct as a woman, you want all the women in the world to die, and are you willing to do so?"

Mrs. Tian, ​​who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly walked out of her seat and knelt in front of Jingli: "My dear, if I could meet you in the morning, I wouldn't have to suffer so much!"

"The Wei family is so cruel. They forced my little daughter to death!"

Jing Li never expected that this would happen. Seeing Mrs. Tian crying sadly, she couldn't help but ask: "What grudges do you have with the Wei family?"

Mrs. Tian wiped her tears: "Today is the old concubine's birthday. I shouldn't have said this, but when I saw this little bitch of the Wei family, the hatred in my heart couldn't go away!"

It turns out that Mrs. Tian is now married for the second time, and her previous husband was a student of Bachelor Wei.

After the death of her ex-husband, Mrs. Tian, ​​who had been criticized by her husband's family, planned to take her daughter back to her parents' home, but she did not want her husband's mother-in-law to force her to honor her late husband.

Her husband had always hit and scolded the mother and daughter during his lifetime, and he had never shown a good face for a day. Mrs. Tian hated him so much that she couldn't keep him in check.

Her mother-in-law went to see the great scholar Wei, and the Wei family brought people there to threaten her natal family. If she did not honor her deceased husband, all the girls in her natal family would definitely have a bad reputation in the future.

Thanks to her current husband, General Tian, ​​who had been fighting abroad for many years, came back and brought the Wei family back.

However, her husband's family was extremely vicious, and even locked their little daughter outside in the cold weather and froze to death.

"Princess, please tell me, how can I not feel hatred in my heart?"

Mrs. Tian choked with tears: "I have been married to him for ten years and have never had a full meal. If I am not careful, my mother-in-law and her husband will team up to beat me severely. I live in a stable and eat my mother-in-law's leftovers. It is commonplace!" "

"He's dead, I wish I could crush him to ashes, and he actually wants me to keep him safe!"

"Bah, if this woman doesn't comply with the man, she will be struck by lightning. I would rather be struck to death by lightning than let him have an easy time!"

When Mrs. Tian said this, her eyes were fixed on Wei Lin. The hatred in her eyes was like a poisonous snake, which made Wei Lin feel numb in her heart.Although Jing Li had known that it was not easy for women in ancient times, after meeting women like Huang Siniang and Mrs. Tian, ​​she still felt that what she thought was not easy before was indeed a bit superficial.

There is a saying that says, if you haven’t experienced it, how can you empathize with it?

The old concubine originally wanted to use the birthday party to get closer to Jing Li, but she didn't expect that Wei Lin and Mrs. Tian would cause such a situation. She only felt a slight pain in her head.

When Wei Lin saw everyone's eyes on her, her originally strong back began to tremble slightly. Why did these women look at her with such embarrassment?

Don't they know that everything they do is to regulate women's behavior and seek the moral principles that women in this world should have?

Bijun beside the old concubine suddenly stood up and said: "Get out of here."

"You keep a straight face all day long and teach others about so-called virtues. You don't even look in the mirror to see what your own family is like. How dare you criticize others!"

"My grandmother's wonderful birthday party was all ruined by you!"

"Bijun!" Princess Tai scolded: "How can you be so rude? Miss Wei is a guest, how can you treat a guest like this?"

Princess Tai turned to Wei Lin and said: "Big girl, don't argue with her, she is just a child!"

Then he called to everyone: "Eat vegetables, eat vegetables!"

"This wine is made from Yuqionglou's fruit. It tastes great and is not intoxicating!"

"Quickly, fill it up for all the ladies!"

Wei Lin couldn't bear the atmosphere at the table, so she stood up and said to the old concubine: "My dear concubine, my little girl is feeling unwell, so please leave first!"

The old lady's expression was as usual: "Hey, you kid."

"Mommy, give me a gift for the big girl!"

Mammy responded and sent Wei Lin out.

Seeing this, Mrs. Tian stood up and said to the old concubine: "My dear concubine, I've been bothering you for a long time. If there is something at home, it's time to go back."

After sending these people away, the old concubine said to Jing Li: "It made the princess laugh. I originally asked the princess to come over and talk about it today, but I didn't expect so many troubles to arise."

Jing Li smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you are so polite. This was to congratulate Your Majesty on her birthday. I was so angry that I couldn't help but said a few more words and disturbed My Majesty's birthday party. I hope you will forgive me!"

The old concubine took Jing Li's hand and said: "You are out of town. You are a member of the family. You are getting married that day. Lao Jiu is busy with affairs and cannot see his family. Today I wanted to introduce you to the members of the royal family, but let me People have ruined the atmosphere!”

After saying that, he called his granddaughter Bijun: "This little girl has wanted to get to know you for a long time, and I just got to meet you today. I am so happy that I have no sense of restraint. Please don't argue with her!"

Jing Li likes Bijun's temperament very much: "I like girls like her, innocent, lively and cute, and her daughter's wealth is like this!"

Princess Thailand smiled and said: "The princess is absolutely right, my daughter's family only has a good time for two years!"

After returning from Prince Tai's Palace, Jing Li forgot about Wei Lin.

Unexpectedly, a few days later, rumors spread throughout the city.
