Quick Wear: I and the Female Match Share the Battle Shirt

Chapter 213 The Righteous Way (2)

[A patch for the front row: I always separate someone's works/words and deeds from the person's character and actual propositions, such as the large number of feudal moralists mentioned later. When I quote their words or deeds in the article, it does not mean that I admire this person.

(Except for those who are very explicit in their praise, such as Liu E mentioned many times before. Although she is not considered a feminist today and she still defends the imperial power, I just think she is amazing.)

The reason for this patch is that there was a comment a few days ago on the previous book, and because the words "first week" and "second week" were used in the text, it was called a Japanese devil. This is too insulting. 】

The system popped up and said, "Changqing, do you know why this world is so weird?"

"Why else could it be? Of course it's because this is the feudal society imagined by modern people."

Lu Changqing observed the calligraphy that Bai Fuying had copied so that he could imitate it later. He complained, "You can write if you want, and take pictures if you want. Why do you have to make so many common sense mistakes? Why don't you read a few more books to understand the real social background of the Northern Song Dynasty before typing?"

"You are wrong. The author wrote this book to oppose those Mary Sue time-travel novels that have been popular in the past. Weren't time-travel novels about secret agents and miracle doctors popular? The heroine relied on her own abilities and personal charm to dominate the world and the court, attracting countless men to compete for her. In the end, she chose the most outstanding man to live in seclusion for the rest of her life. The author of this book felt that this kind of novel was too exaggerated and not a real ancient society, so she created one herself."

Lu Changqing was speechless. "But what she wrote was not the real ancient society. Even in the Ming and Qing dynasties, it was not the case that the reputation of unmarried women in the family would be affected just because a female family member lost a handkerchief and it was picked up by a man from another family."

"And the point I want to criticize the most is about the issue of women reading. Is the original author of Shen Rou's world a fan of this book? They are simply a pair of lunatics."

When did a woman's ability to manage a household become more important than her ability to read and write? Which dynasty or era did this idea come from?

"Even a moralist like Sima Guang could say, 'As human beings, we all need to learn. How can there be any difference between men and women?' and 'All the virtuous women in ancient times were fond of learning, reading pictures on the left and history on the right to warn themselves.' How could she, a modern person, have such thoughts?"

The system thought about it and found an excuse for the creator, saying, "Perhaps in their opinion, women in ancient times only needed to stay in the backyard to take care of household chores and did not need to educate children, so they thought that noble ladies only needed to be able to read account books and recognize a few words."

"Who told them that women in ancient times didn't need to educate their children? The 'educate children' in 'supporting the husband and educating the children' was just a joke? Wu Qiong (Wang Anshi's wife) would have been the first to jump up and slap her twice."

"And doesn't the author care so much about a woman's reputation? Does she know that most of the women whose names will be passed down through the ages are talented women? Xie Daoyun, Yu Xuanji, Li Qingzhao, Shen Yixiu, etc., which one of them is not a talented woman praised by people?"

Lu Changqing couldn't understand why a modern educated person would have such a big prejudice against talented women. Could it be that the author was illiterate and jealous of them?

"That's not clear. Anyway, the author included a lot of personal ideas in the original work. For example, the heroine Bai Xingke has chubby hands. In fact, it's because the author herself is fat and has a pair of small fleshy hands, so she put them on Bai Xingke, a beautiful girl with chubby hands and peerless beauty."

Lu Changqing: …

"What about the male protagonist of the silkworm?"

"The author's husband is a divorced man. She was married for the first time and married for the second time. She had a child in the first marriage, and she later gave birth to a son."

Lu Changqing: …

"So her husband is also a big worm, right?"

The system told the truth, "That's not very clear."

"She is putting herself into the role of Bai Xingke."

The system responded, "Yes, so later the hero stopped riding a mare for the heroine. Maybe she also hopes that her husband will treat her the same way."

Lu Changqing just felt that this plot was disgusting. "Then I suggest that the male protagonist in the plot should not even eat the meal, after all, the meal was also cooked by the cook in the kitchen."

The system sighed and said, "The rules of this world restrict you greatly. What are you going to do?"

Lu Changqing said: "I want to use a dog-head guillotine to chop off all these crazy people."

"That may not work. The most you can do is let them go to jail. And since you sued Bai Shiyuan, according to the principle of protecting one's relatives, you will be sentenced to two years in prison."

Lu Changqing was puzzled, "Isn't there such a thing as the Song Dynasty Criminal Code in this world? The master can beat the servants to death at will, so why should I go to jail if I sue my own father?"

"It's not that there is no Song Dynasty Criminal Code in this world, but when a certain system is not in the interests of the protagonists, the world will simply ignore this system and rationalize the protagonists' behavior. For example, it is not illegal to beat a servant to death, but it is illegal to sue your own father."

The system continued, "Honestly, what are you going to do? You also know the situation in the north of the Song Dynasty. Now during the reign of Emperor Renzong, foreign affairs are relatively peaceful. When it comes to the reign of Emperor Huizong and Emperor Qinzong, it will be really difficult."

Lu Changqing: "I want to destroy this world and start over."

System: "...Then the higher-ups will destroy you, and there will be no chance to restart."

Lu Changqing said with a smile: "I'm just kidding."

After laughing, Lu Changqing said sadly: "In view of Bai Fuying's simple wish, the most suitable path for her is to enter the palace as a female official, so that she doesn't have to get married. Unfortunately, she is a little old. I don't know if she can get into the palace with Bai Shiyuan's relationship."

"A sixth-rank official in charge of finances shouldn't have that much power."

"Not necessarily." Lu Changqing said, "Do you know what the Duzhisi does? It manages everything related to money, from small things like rewards to big things like winter clothes and fodder for the army, salaries for officials, grain prices across the country, and storage in the East and West Capitals. It's definitely the Ministry of Finance, a big, lucrative job for a small official with great power."

The system said nonchalantly, "So what? Isn't there still a deputy envoy above him? And above him is the prime minister. Even if he has greater power, can he be more powerful than these two?"

Lu Changqing stroked his chin, "This is the network of relationships. His superiors are all influential people in the court. Add to that Bai Fuying's reputation as a talented woman, and it should be feasible if we put some work into it."

"I think your path may be a little difficult in the early stages, because in this world, the only way out for women is to get married. Bai Shiyuan probably won't let you enter the palace."

The system continued, "And if a woman doesn't marry when she reaches the age, her mother and father will be implicated and sentenced."

Lu Changqing was full of questions, "What about those poor girls who can't save up for a dowry?"

For example, the protagonist in "The Poor Girl" who "bitterly regrets weaving gold thread year after year to make wedding dresses for others", although she lived in the Tang Dynasty, there were definitely many girls like her in the Song Dynasty. They just couldn't save up enough for the dowry and couldn't get married. Should her family members go to jail for this?

"This creator is too presumptuous. Does he think there were no poor people in the Song Dynasty? Everyone is rich and every family is a landowner?"

Lu Changqing thought it was incredible. "What an exaggerated setting! It's really not easy for women to be born in this world!"

After traveling through so many worlds, this was the most feudal and inhumane world she had ever seen.
