The Story of Dafujin Parenting in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 174 The Mongolian Fujin in the Capital 1
When it comes to this field, we have to talk about the Mongolian Fujin and wives in the capital.

Now most of the old Fujin in the clan are Mongolian Fujin. In every draft, Lord Kangxi will basically not bring Mongolian noble daughters into the harem, but will marry these Mongolian noble daughters to the clan's men.

The emperor didn't want the harem to be full of Mongolian women, so let these uncles, brothers, brothers and nephews do the work for them.

Grandmother Hezhuo is also a Mongolian woman, and when her grandmother married, she was still in the era of Huang Taiji, outside the customs.At that time, the emperor's harem was dominated by noble Mongolian women, and many courtiers married Mongolian women.

Everyone knows that all married women have to give their natal family rituals and annual gifts, so what about the Mongolian daughter-in-law who comes to the capital?

This can not trouble them.

In order to curb the development of Mongolia, Kangxi not only restricted the trade with Mongolia, but also divided the Mongolian tribes into areas, and they could not move around at will.
This not only curbed the development of Mongolia, but also curbed the growth of population.

So as to achieve the purpose of controlling Mongolia.

Now every winter, many people from various tribes in Mongolia will starve to death or die of illness.

The Mongolian grassland has a long winter, and there are only 7 months to graze every year, and there is a shortage of food and vegetables for the remaining 5 months. Therefore, the Mongolian daughters married to the capital usually send back food as annual gifts and festival gifts, usually in the closest year. One boxing ceremony, one annual ceremony, that is, twice a year.

Far away once a year.

However, the Mongolian Fujin and his wives are very measured in giving gifts, lest the husband's family end up with an adulterous Mongolian person, which would be bad recently.

It is generally agreed that 3-5 carriages should be sent at a time, not too many. A small carriage can hold 9 stones of grain, and a large carriage can generally hold 15 stones of grain. Yiergenjueluo’s family is a mixture of large and small carriages.

Just these years of rituals and rituals, Kangxi and the court turned a blind eye and closed one eye.

This governs heaven and earth, and it can also prevent people from being filial to their parents. The Qing Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety.

Moreover, this idea is not much in terms of silver, and the tricky censor will not use this as an argument, except that he cannot refute the filial piety of his mother's family. Most of the Manchu ministers, who did not give to the Mongolian in-laws,
For such a point, they can't do it.

祖母每年送两次礼，每次都是45石粮食和300-400斤茶叶，一般用3辆大马车（或者5辆小马车）。

According to the highest output, one mu of land produces 3 shi of grain (generally 2 shi per mu in the north), and the grandmother will give away all the production of 15 mu of land once she gives a gift.A year is 30 mu, and there are 3 Mongolian daughters-in-law in the mansion, which is 90 mu. In fact, it is equivalent to 135 taels of silver, a total of 270 shi grains, and tea is also the most common tea (100 Wen a catty of tea, 12 catties/tael), but this is a necessity for their survival.Tea costs only 200 taels a year.

People don't take your money for nothing, it's all in exchange for courtesy.

The gifts from Mongolia are usually special kumiss or something, and sometimes a pony,

Most of the horses in Yiergenjueluo's village come from this way.The return gift is generally worth more than the gift given.

With one gift from the grandmother, the food can supply 7-10 Mongolian adult men for a year, and the tea can supply up to 24-32 people for one winter.

In fact, it is just a drop in the bucket for the cold winter.

It is only given twice a year. After the second aunt and the third sister-in-law get married, they give the same New Year gifts and boxing gifts as the grandmother, and the specifications are the same.

The second aunt was born to a half-brother of her grandmother's natal family. Her biological father was a tribal warrior and had 100 people in her hands. However, because her biological mother was a slave, she was a slave at first.

This is the case on the grasslands. Generally, children born to slaves are still slaves. Unless you are very popular with the other party, or your son or daughter is very capable, it is difficult to change the status of slave.

The second aunt changed her status as a slave because of her grandmother, and the grandmother took a fancy to the young second aunt and wanted to hire her as the second uncle's daughter-in-law, so she changed her status as a slave.

The grandmother's second aunt's dowry includes more than 10 carts of grain and a thousand catties of ordinary tea. These are extra, and the rest are the same as other daughters-in-law.When the uncles come to send off their weddings, they will take the opportunity to buy more food and send it back, and the grandmother will also send another 10 carts of food.

The third sister-in-law is also from the Borzigit family. After all, the blood relationship between the third sister-in-law and the grandmother is extremely close. The third sister-in-law is the granddaughter of the grandmother's brother, that is, the grandniece of the grandmother.

Both the grandmother and her elder brother were born to a Taiji in Horqin. The birth mother was a concubine, and the elder brother and the mother shared a territory when they became adults. They were the leaders of a small tribe with 2000 people, and it was passed on to the father of the third sister-in-law.

The second aunt's father was a warrior in the third sister-in-law's tribe.

So speaking of it, the status of the third sister-in-law is much higher than that of the second aunt. The status in the mansion is second only to the eldest brother (the eldest grandson) who wants to inherit the family business.
