Daughter's Portable Space

Chapter 472 On Marriage

"Mother, Xi'er doesn't understand."

The old lady of the Qin family sighed again, looking at Brother Pan in her arms, she decided to teach Qin Xi a lesson.After all, Qin Xi, the mother-in-law, will be required to see Brother Pan's marriage in the future.

"Xi'er, let me explain to you briefly..."

When looking for a marriage for my daughter, I usually find a family with a relatively simple population, so that after my daughter gets married in the future, she will not have to face too many people and things at once.But it is just the opposite for sons to see each other and get married. Daughters can be raised more innocently, but daughter-in-law will become the head of the house in the future. If she is too naive and innocent, how can she be born?

Especially, the eldest daughter-in-law.

In the case of the Li family, let alone other things, just by looking at the age gap between the two children, you can tell that there is a problem.

Miss Li's family is 14 years old, but her younger brother is younger than Brother Pan, even less than a year old.There is a 13-year age difference between the eldest daughter and the youngest son.Who said that such a situation is very common in some families, but the problem is that those families not only have two children.

For example, Luo Yunrui is only in her 20s this year. If she has another child ten years later, the gap with her eldest son will be sixteen or seventeen years old.This is not surprising, because she was not idle in the middle, and she had an eldest son.

In a family, if the first child gave birth to a daughter, they would definitely find ways to conceive another child immediately.And if the first child gave birth to a son, or like Luo Yunrui, who gave birth to three sons in one breath, then even if she would not get pregnant again in the future, she would not get anxious and even turn off the desire to have another child. Thought, after all, not having a daughter is just a pity, not a big deal.

But what about the Li family?

"Xi'er, there is only one possibility for this situation in the Li family. After the wife of the Li family gave birth to the eldest daughter, her body collapsed. It was not until more than ten years later that she recovered her body and gave birth to her youngest son. But obviously, according to your Judging from what you said just now, after the Li family gave birth to the youngest son, her health became even worse. Generally speaking, daughters are like their mothers. If a mother's health is not good, this daughter will not be very strong."

The old lady of the Qin family and Qin Xi are the best examples.

"But..." Qin Xi opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but she was not very good at words, so she froze there for a while.

"One more question, Xi'er, have you noticed it? The Li family has no concubines."

At this moment, Qin Xi thought of something: "Isn't that great? Our family doesn't have any heirs, like the Gu family."

Gently shaking her head, the old lady of the Qin family emphasized one thing to her again: "The standards for marrying a daughter and marrying a wife have never been the same. Let's put it this way, I like my daughter marrying a family who has never been a concubine. I want her to live more comfortably in the future. But I hope that my daughter-in-law comes from a family with concubines. Whether it is concubine brothers or sisters, I hope she has many brothers and sisters. "

Qin Xi's eyes widened, and she looked at Luo Yunrui subconsciously, but found that Luo Yunrui's face was normal, and smiled at her: "Why is that?"

The old lady of the Qin family didn't speak, but Luo Yunrui picked it up: "It's normal, a son is like a father, and a daughter is like a mother. Your father-in-law didn't have any heirs, so Xi'er, your husband generally wouldn't accept a concubine." And like me, I have a concubine sister and a concubine brother, which means that my mother can accept concubines and children. If I married in and had nothing, or only a daughter, then I would Like my mother, I will take the initiative to take concubines for my husband."

"But...but..."

"A concubine is not as good as a concubine, there is no doubt about it. However, if she is a concubine and has not given birth to a man for many years, then for the sake of family inheritance, she is obliged to let the dowry maid or someone else give birth to a husband. Heirs." Luo Yunrui paused: "In fact, my concubine is only one year younger than me. It is said that after I was born, that aunt came in. Of course, it doesn't matter if the aunt can give birth to a son or not. The matter of the first wife. Taking a concubine is an attitude, not necessarily for the purpose of giving birth to an heir."

Qin Xi was in a daze. The world she had been in contact with since she was a child was too clean, so clean that she couldn't accept a trace of darkness.Even, to Luo Yunrui, this is not dark at all.

"Sister-in-law, did you already know what mother was thinking?" she murmured, and then Qin Xi immediately covered her mouth with a look of panic.

Luo Yunrui laughed suddenly: "This is what most people think, not just my mother. In fact, I think so too. I have three younger brothers."

"But...it's not fair!"

It is indeed very unfair to hope that the person whose daughter will marry in the future will not have a concubine, but hope that the daughter-in-law can accept a concubine.

But Luo Yunrui just smiled: "There has never been anything fair or unfair in this world. Besides, although you have such thoughts when marrying a daughter-in-law, if the daughter-in-law can give birth to a son-in-law, the mother-in-law is I am extremely happy. Sometimes a concubine is just a kind of protection, and it is completely incomparable with a concubine."

Luo Yunrui's meaning is very clear, it's perfectly fine not to accept concubines as long as they can give birth to a son-in-law.One, two, three...or even more. In this way, even if the mother-in-law really bestows a concubine, as the first wife, she can still refuse, or directly force the concubine to take sterilization drugs .

Qin Xi was still in a daze, and it took a long time before she looked at the old lady of the Qin family: "Mother, after you gave birth to your brother, didn't you also..."

"Xi'er, Shaotian is your elder brother and the eldest son of the Qin family, that's enough. Besides, your father and I were not in the old Qin family's house in Luzhou City at that time, otherwise it wouldn't be so easy. Besides Oh, Xi'er, have you forgotten? Your father also had a concubine as a roommate."

Hearing what the old lady of the Qin family said, Qin Xi's complexion turned pale, and hastily changed the subject: "I, I understand. I just think... Miss Li's family seems pretty good too."

"No one said she was bad, but I just felt that the Li family's wife seemed to be in poor health, maybe the Li family's girl was the same? This Li family's wife hadn't been married for more than ten years, and she didn't give her husband a concubine, maybe Will the girl from the Li family be like this in the future?" Luo Yunrui smiled calmly: "Actually, a girl like the Li family, although she is the eldest daughter, should have been an only adopted daughter for a long time. Right? A girl like this is probably more pampered than a young girl. I think she is more suitable for the youngest son of a rich family, rather than being the eldest daughter-in-law."

"Sister-in-law... well, you're right, I just think that girl has a good temper, so I didn't think too much about it."

Seeing Qin Xi's decadent expression, Luo Yunrui couldn't bear it any longer: "This is just my one-sided words, I will still accept this post, and I will hand it to my mother in person. However, will she finally accept it?" I don't know if I agreed. Xi'er, you also understand that the Luo family is the only legitimate son like Brother Rui, so naturally I hope that his future wife will come from a family with more prosperous children."

Qin Xi nodded silently, but her brows were still furrowed, and the blankness in her eyes still remained.

Going forward and pulling Qin Xi to be beside the old lady of the Qin family, Luo Yunrui said again: "Xi'er, I know you are very simple and kind, but sometimes the world is very complicated. You have to learn from others. to look at things from a different perspective, rather than always feeling that these things seem unfair.”

"But it's not fair." Qin Xi pouted childishly: "Don't you think it's unfair, sister-in-law?"

"Yes, you're right, it's not fair. But this world is unfair. Xi'er, think about it, why are some people born with golden spoons in their mouths? Why do some people never get enough to eat or wear? Warm? Why are some people able to be loved by the whole family, while others are destined to live in dark corners?"

Qin Xi was speechless.

"Xi'er, your so-called injustice actually doesn't matter at all. You are the youngest girl in the family, so you may not feel too much. After all, with Shaotian's temperament, even if he is more favored by his parents, he will not be with you. Fighting or something. Like me, I have a concubine sister who is about the same age as me, and she fights with me for everything. Later, I have a younger brother who is a concubine and a younger brother who is a concubine. Needless to say, a concubine, Leier Fortunately, Brother Rui is the only legitimate son of my parents. He can easily get many things that I can't get. I love Brother Rui even more."

It is undeniable that the second master of the Luo family is extremely patriarchal.Luo Zhang's is better than him, but after all, Lei'er and Rui'er are young, so it's normal to pay more attention.Although what Luo Yunrui said was exaggerated, it was still true.

"However, even so, I used to have a very high status in my natal family. Like my concubine sister and brother, if they dare to contradict me, I have the right to teach them a lesson. And my father's concubine, My father is a person who doesn't treat concubines as human beings at all. Sometimes my mother doesn't even need to ask. As long as they don't obey the rules and are rude to me or Lei'er and Brother Rui, my father will not hesitate. sell them."

Luo Yunrui paused, and looked at Qin Xi helplessly: "Using what you just said, wouldn't it be more unfair to them?"

When Qin Xi left the Qin family, she was full of suspicion.

As Luo Yunrui said, she lived in such a pure world since she was a child that even though she is married now, she still can't understand many things.To be honest, Qin Xi is much better now, at least not like she was still in her boudoir, but she still can't accept many things.

However, thinking about the expectant eyes of Luo Yunrui and the old lady of the Qin family just now, she still definitely has to think about it after she goes back.

There are too many injustices in this world, but it is rare to judge one thing right or wrong.

Therefore, she has to learn to plan for her family from her own perspective.
