"What the third uncle said makes sense, but what if we meet the clansman who beat his wife to death?"

"How about that woman who wants to seek justice for herself even if she goes to any lengths?"

"When this reputation spreads, it will also have an impact on Chen. Furthermore, if a woman has a child, how can the child not miss his mother?"

"I wonder if my mother will be resentful of the clan's failure to deal with the injustice she suffered?"

"If there are two more promising children among them, even if one of the same clan is prosperous and the other is damaged, who knows that there will be no other thoughts in his heart?"

"Whether or not we will help the clan is another matter at that time. Who knows whether we will cause a huge disaster and harm the clan..."

Uncle Chen's third uncle changed his face when Meng Tan said that he was successful. He secretly wondered why he had never thought of this before, even though most children who have lost their biological mothers may not necessarily have any abilities.

But if you are thinking too much about the unfair biological mother, it will also harm the clan. This is much more serious than a bad reputation in the clan.

Meng Tan pushed again, "Besides, the people of this tribe are working together to push the younger generations forward. Or maybe the children whose mothers were unfairly helped by the tribe have grown up. Thanks to the protection of the tribe, they can still survive." In the gang?"

This sentence suddenly pierced the heart of Third Uncle Chen. He looked at Meng Tan with burning eyes. Isn't there a ready-made example in front of him?
Isn't this little Meng family just an orphan and a widower? Isn't it that they have received a lot of support from the clan?

This little Meng was also a widow herself, so she must have known what those widowed mothers and young children thought, so she wanted to establish a women's and children's hall.

Meng Tan wanted to continue talking, but Uncle Chen's third uncle became excited all of a sudden. He burst into tears and said, "Xiangu, Xiangu, you can think of the clan like this. It's really gratifying to Third Uncle. Don't worry, this woman and child Third Uncle Tang will definitely help take care of it, so you won’t have to worry about it.”

Meng Tan: ...Haha, these are just excuses to persuade, there is no need to be so excited.

But if the other person thinks so, there's nothing she can do about it.

Meng Tan also looked excited and grateful, "This is what I should do. I can see the hard work of my third uncle over the years."

"You understand me, it's not easy for me..." As soon as Uncle Chen San said this, he really felt that he had been in tears these past years. He had done so many good things for the family, but some people didn't buy it.

Cui Ping: ...He probably understands Meng Tan's desire to watch the excitement.

Obviously he, a bystander, could tell at a glance that Meng Tan was acting, but Uncle Chen actually believed it. Not only did he believe it, he also cried.

The two of them cried bitter tears before Meng Tan started to continue the second point, "Now that everything is clear, let's settle it like this. If a man is found to beat his wife, the people in the women's and children's hall will not teach him a lesson, but the man who beats him will be punished." I have to work for the clan, and this time will be decided by my third uncle to see if it’s serious or not.”

"If you commit the crime again, you will be fined money. This money will be transferred to the Women's and Children's Hall and used as money for the Women's and Children's Hall to help widows and children. If you commit the crime again, ask the wife what she wants. If she wants to reconcile, ask her husband's family to pay some money." If you already have children and don’t want to leave the village, let them settle in our village and give them some protection.”

This is the best solution that Meng Tan can come up with at the moment. Although the current household marriage law in Dachu is relatively enlightened compared to the previous dynasty, in reality, there is still the big problem of survival that must be taken into consideration.

They have no money, no land, no house, and no job to survive. Even if they wanted to find one, there would be very few places to use them.

Without their husband's family, they have nothing.

"Okay, Fairy Girl, this method is good!"

Third uncle Chen thought about what Meng Tan meant. The more he thought about it, the more it made sense. This childless person was given a sum of money to be merciful. He could not say that the Chen family was not good. With money, he could not think of the Chen family. Great, this is a great opportunity to become famous. As for how much money to give, it doesn’t have to come from the clan. It’s the wife’s man who pays. Shouldn’t he bear the responsibility if he makes a mistake?
Those who have children have become members of the Chen clan. The family has grown stronger. If one or two people as capable as the little Meng clan come in, can the family be strengthened?
Uncle Chen's heart was filled with excitement, and he was so excited that he broke two more beards. Maybe the Chen family would return to its ancestral peak in his hands.

Thinking about the glorious scenes of the Chen family, it really made his bones and muscles clear.

"The third thing is, I want the Women's Children's Hall to also take care of these widows and widowers who commit adultery. I hope that every time there are rumors about a certain person committing rape and crime in the village, the Women's Children's Hall can investigate and take care of it, especially It’s about things like reputation and adultery.”

As soon as these words came out, not only Uncle Chen San, but also Cui Ping were surprised, "This road has a special government office. Women who break the law will be dealt with in the same way as men."

"However, many women have not been able to wait to go to court. How many towns and villages are there in this Ji County? How many criminal women can be dealt with in court?"

Meng Tan's always smiling eyes became aggressive, "Cui Ping, tell me, how much does it compare to a man's crime?"

"How much of this is true and how much is false? Aren't most of them lynched by the husband's family and summarily executed by the village before they could go to court?"

Cui Ping was slightly startled, trying to understand the reason for Meng Tan's sudden excitement: "Of course there are not many, but Jixian has always been poor and happy, and the big Chu..."

"Da Chu is a new dynasty, so naturally it cannot take care of these many places, right?"

"But you are... not mine anymore." Meng Tan tried to calm herself down. Why should she argue with someone who has never seen what equality is.

"I am a woman, so I know how difficult it is for women. Third uncle, sometimes I take care of the sisters-in-law and aunties in the village. Maybe they can be like me and one day bring great help to the clan."

"Okay." Third uncle Chen nodded. He agreed with what Meng Tan said.

When he was young, Aunt Seven, who was in charge of the clan, had made a similar request. Over the years, the clan had not only become rich and powerful, but during the most difficult times, it was the benevolent policies of Aunt Seven that made it possible to survive. Now, Chen is slowly moving up.

He dare not underestimate a capable woman.

Thinking of this, Third Uncle Chen couldn't help but look at Meng Tan. Little Meng was also the seventh aunt of the younger generation.

God bless him Chen.

After listening to Meng Tan's words, Third Uncle Chen hurriedly went to find Uncle Chen Third.

Before night, the news about the women's and children's hall had spread throughout the village, and the women who signed up for Uncle Chen San were almost starting to fight.

Of course, this is something.

Now, Meng Tan looked at Cui Ping, "Aren't you leaving?"

"Huh?" Cui Ping frowned and looked at Meng Tan. He had not yet come out of Meng Tan's angry mood and kept thinking about the reason why Meng Tan said those words.

"Aren't you angry with me anymore?"

"Ah?" Meng Tan looked confused, "Why are you angry with you?" (End of Chapter)
