People in the Republic of China: Rising from the Fall

Chapter 226

Chapter 226: Explain Clearly! Only three wives and four concubines can be worthy of Su Zheng’s identity? [Add more, ask for subscription].

The ancient institution of marriage was polygamy.

Although the emperor has three thousand beautiful harems, there is only one empress.

The right wives of the dignitaries are all Ming media, and they are marrying the right ladies. Concubines are specially used to serve men, make men happy, and are commodities used by rich people to enjoy and show off their status.

In ancient times, not all men in the world could take concubines casually, because concubinage cost money. The little people sweat eight petals on weekdays, gouge food in the dirt, it is good to marry a wife, where is the money to take a concubine? Marrying a concubine is as few as a hundred, or as many as thousands, and the common people dare not think about such a money-burning thing.

Therefore, in ancient times, those who had three wives and four concubines were some rich people or dignitaries.

Su Zheng is now a rich man… According to the ancient feudal system and ideology, even three wives and four concubines are a very normal thing.

Continuing incense was a top priority in ancient times, and in order to pass on the lineage, many people also had three wives and four concubines, and took concubines to have sons… In addition, the fertility rate in ancient times was very low, but the natural folding rate was very high.

That is, in ancient times, there were few babies, and the probability of children being born and dying was indeed very high… After all, the level of delivery at that time was limited, and the level of medical treatment was limited.

It can only be to marry a few more wives to ensure offspring. In ancient times, the children of concubines were nominally owned by the right wife according to ritual religion, calling the right wife the mother, and the concubine was only a biological mother… To put it bluntly, a concubine is just a fertility tool.

Therefore, when the right wife does not have a son, she will always try in every possible way to take a concubine for her husband. Regardless of whether he is biological or not, as long as he has a son, he will have a settlement for the rest of his life.

In the end, even if the wife gave birth to a son, under the influence of the feudal ideology of “many children and many blessings”, she insisted on taking concubines.

Whether it was to inherit the lineage, to show off capital or to respond to the call of the imperial court, three wives and four concubines were symbols of male power in ancient times, and women had no status to speak of.

Now it’s Republic of China society… The social atmosphere is relatively open and democratic, but feudal society and feudal ideology have been influenced for more than two thousand years… For a while, many people were still deeply influenced by feudal society and feudal ideology.

Not to mention the society of the Republic of China, even in 2022, there are many people who are deeply affected by the tea poison of feudal thinking. After all, thinking is not something that can be reversed in a moment.

Therefore, it is very normal for Ye Kai to have three wives and four concubines.

He was a liberal and democratic man, but feudal ideas also had a great influence on him, so he would say such things. In this Republican society, there are too many warlords and magnates who have three wives and four concubines.

This is relatively normal.

However, Ye Kai’s words surprised Su Zheng very much. It’s amazing!???

Hearing Ye Kai’s words, a bunch of question marks suddenly appeared in Su Zheng’s mind. I was also a little confused.

This…… What three wives and four concubines? What makes it bigger and small?

Su Zheng was also a little crying and laughing. It’s all about where it is. What the heck?

Looking at the serious Ye Kai saying such words, Su Zheng quickly opened his mouth and explained: “Brother Ye, you allow me to say two words!” ”

“I am indeed the one who admits Tong Lu as me in front of everyone… I didn’t say that Tong Lu is my woman, you should know what I mean… Tong Lu is not my woman, just my person! ”

“Tong Lu is the person I like, she is not my woman, but she is my person… If anyone dares to bully her, I, Su Zheng, will be the first to not let her go! ”

“I, Su Zheng, dare to do things and do things… I didn’t have a relationship with Tong Lu, that is, there was no relationship. ”

This is the truth. Let’s just tell the truth.

Ye Kai listened to Su Zheng’s explanation, stunned, and asked in disbelief: “You…. You and Tong Lu really didn’t have a bed-sharing relationship? ”

Su Zheng: “No!” ”

Indeed, it’s not a boyfriend and girlfriend relationship right now. There was also no bed-sharing relationship.

But that doesn’t mean it won’t happen in the future… This is not guaranteed.

Seeing Su Zheng’s serious answer, Ye Kai believed Su Zheng’s words and nodded, “So that’s it… Okay, then I’ll go talk to my sister! ”

Saying that, Ye Kai brought Ye Yunshu to the side and roughly said Su Zheng’s words.

After listening, Ye Yunshu looked at Ye Kai with a stunned look and said, “Brother, did Su Zheng really say that?” Did he and Tong Lu really not have a bed-sharing relationship? ”

Ye Kai nodded and said, “Hmm… Yes…… Su Zheng personally told me… He said that Tong Lu was his person, not his woman! ”

……

“There’s a fundamental difference… Moreover, you should also know Su Zheng. ”

“Su Zheng is a person who dares to be bold, since he said that he did not have a relationship with Tong Lu, then he must not have heard this, Ye Yunshu was smiling.”

The previous haze mood was swept away. The whole person became a lot happier.

It turned out to be a little overthinking.

Ye Yunshu glanced at Su Zheng not far away and said, “I believe that Su Zheng is a person.” ”

Ye Kai lowered his voice and said, “Sister, if you really like Su Zheng, then you should quickly confess your love…”

“Can’t let other women get ahead of the curve!”

“Even if Su Zheng wants three wives and four concubines, you have to be big… This is the style of my Ye family! ”

Ye Yunshu clenched his fists and said, “That’s right! ”

She doesn’t mind that Su Zheng has three wives and four concubines, but she must be big. The two siblings wanted to go together.

After a pause, Ye Yunshu looked at Ye Kai and said, “Brother… You also think Su Zheng is good, right? ”

Ye Kai: “Yes… Brother Su must be good, so ah… Sister, you have to hold on tight! ”

Ye Yunshu nodded.

Although Ye Kai and Ye Yunshu pulled to the side and lowered their voices to speak.

But Su Zheng’s hearing is super strong, and he listened to their conversation word for word. This is not what Su Zheng wants to eavesdrop.

The main thing is that the hearing is too good.

It’s just that…… What does this dialogue mean?

It seems that Ye Yunshu is really angry and jealous because of Su Zheng’s words.

However, do not mind three wives and four concubines… Miss Ye Yunshu wants to make it bigger? What is this!

Su Zheng was a little crying and laughing by the two siblings. It seems that feudal thinking is indeed not shallow.

But now that Ye Yunshu’s heart is unlocked, he can take them to visit Su Jiajun. PS: Plus Change, an automatic subscription and a tip plus Change.
