1358th: The Tea Party of the Ladies (1)
Genius remembers the address of this site in a second: (Apex Chinese), the fastest update! No ads! No matter what changes Jiang Pengji brings to this era, this change will take time to ferment and spread.
Over time, new ideas can slowly replace the old ones that people are accustomed to.
It will take more than ten years or even decades to erupt, and the old thinking still dominates at present.
In people's inherent old thinking, men are in charge of the outside world, making money and socializing, while women are in charge of the house, maintaining the family, taking care of children, and supporting their parents.
It seems that the division of labor is clear, but in fact it limits the scope of activities and horizons of women, and makes the idea of "men are superior to women" more deeply ingrained.
Even a noblewoman from a noble family with a prominent family background cannot live without the inner house, husband, elders and children.
In addition to these projects, there is also the so-called "lady diplomacy", where ladies should help their husbands expand and consolidate their contacts in foreign activities.
Before the rise of Maruzhou, there were not many ministers under Jiang Pengji's account, half of whom were single dogs and dinks.
After the rise of Maruzhou, Jinlin Pavilion has absorbed a large number of middle-level talents for Jiang Pengji, most of them are married people.
The wives stayed in Marushu when the husband was dispatched to fight the war or manage the local economy.
As time went by, they also felt a little irritable, and gradually began to walk around each other.
The size of the circle of girlfriends of these wives depends on the status and relationship of their husbands in the officialdom, and their respective husbands have a good relationship.
Whether the wives' friendship is good, the husband's status is high, and the wives' circle of girlfriends will be large.
Even if it was not good before, the four seasons and eight seasons will increase exchanges, and you will naturally become familiar with it once you come and go.
Before Jiang Pengji attacked Huang Song, the wives started to walk around, and when she came back from the battle, all the tea parties were in full bloom.
The tea party is a battlefield for the ladies to demonstrate their "diplomatic means". They have their own accounts in their minds about which relationship should be maintained and which relationship should be alienated. Han Yu's wife, as the noble lady with the highest family background among them, naturally has the best way to win over her.
Although he despises these women from humble backgrounds in his heart and despises their vulgarity and stupidity, on the surface he behaves impeccably.
The tea party she organized was also the best and most considerate in the entire circle of noble ladies in Maruzhou. Which lady would not envy her?
Outsiders don't know that the relationship between her and Han Yu is approaching freezing point. Seeing her delicate and elegant life, they will naturally envy their love as husband and wife, they are a model. Mrs. Han enjoys the feeling of being surrounded by stars, which makes her feel like going back to the past.
Back then in Zhejiang County, her tea party was also "no white person", and the wife with low status and background was not even qualified to receive her invitation. Now she has to endure a group of women of varying levels and lack of quality to attend her tea party.
That's all, this group of rough women who only know how to drink cows also like to complain about their husbands and tell their sufferings at the tea party.
As Jiang Pengji went higher and higher, they suffered more and more.
Her husband's official career has prospered, his status has risen, and almost every household has one or two beautiful concubines in the backyard.
The beautiful concubines threatened their status as the main wife, and some beautiful concubines were pregnant and almost stood on their heads to pee and shit.
The ladies seemed to have found a common topic, and they chatted endlessly, and Madam Han hated it very much.
With such a vulgar woman, it's no wonder that her husband dislikes her because she is old and depraved. Which man would like a yellow-faced woman with no connotation and naughtiness?
"Last night, that little hoof complained of a stomach ache. It was obvious that she was greedy and ate the wrong food. She chose to instigate others. She was wronged because I wanted to lay hands on her child—what did I do for this? She was just a concubine who couldn't get on the stage, that's all. I really take myself seriously.”
She said she didn't care, but the veil in her hand was about to be torn off by her, and her eyes were also red.
"It's not bad, but the one who lives in Chang'an Lane is really miserable." Another lady sighed, "The mother-in-law doesn't like her, and the husband also despises her. Look at this posture, she wants to help the concubine's family to the top, so that the concubine's family can be promoted." She demoted herself to be a concubine and abdicated to be a virtuous person—she refused, and I heard that she was slapped by her mother-in-law as a servant of the mansion,
His face was swollen three to five times. There was too much commotion last night, I'm afraid it might have gone out—"
These ladies live a boring life. In order to relieve loneliness, the tea party is naturally a good channel to pass the time. They are all regular tea party guests and are familiar with each other. As soon as they heard it, they knew who the lady in Chang'an Lane was.
After listening to the gossip, Mrs. Han Yu became even more angry.
These stupid women don't know what "family ugliness should not be publicized"?
Casually talking about the inner house scandal everywhere, deserves to be rejected by her husband.
Mrs. Han was about to sip some tea to calm her shock, but she heard the voice of a strange woman next to her ear.
The other party's voice is not as clear and clear as Huang Li, but rather rough and hoarse like a man's, how can it have the slightest feminine taste?
She said, "Such a man, it's worth throwing it away."
The madam who heard the voice looked around, and saw a plainly dressed woman sitting in the corner, and her clothes were not bright.
If it wasn't for sitting at the banquet, others would have thought it was some nurse who served others.
"Why do you talk like that?"
The woman said, "Could it be wrong? A man who has changed his mind, spoils his concubine and destroys his wife, but also allows his concubine's house to be a demon, filling the house with evil spirits. What great things can such a man do in this life?" As? It's better to give up early and remarry to find someone with a brain."
All the ladies blushed when they heard this.
They complained and complained, and never thought of reconciling.
Besides, they were their husbands, so where would it be their turn to be judged by a petty official's wife?
One person said, "What an impudent shrew."
"I just saw that this woman has a disease in her right foot." The other lady sitting next to the woman said coldly, "One of the women's seven times is a serious disease. Instead of talking nonsense here and disturbing the peace of other people's houses, it is better to think about it." Find a way to avoid becoming a second wife."
This is a relatively polite remark, and some people directly questioned the identity of the woman.
Her attire really doesn't look like a dignified lady, even if anyone's wife is, she is probably a petty official.
How can the wife of a small official be qualified to participate in a tea party of this level?
Although Han Yu's wife has a more reserved personality, her memory and ability are still outstanding among noble ladies.
Even if there are more than a hundred guests, she can accurately call out the identity of the other party, and she is enthusiastic about doing homework.
The invitations for the tea party were all prepared by her order, so naturally it would not happen to invite little-known officials' wives.
She took a closer look at the woman, trying to match the number of her with the invitation she sent out.
Mrs. Han's tea party is the most famous in the circle of noble ladies in Maruzhou. She is also Han Yu's wife, so Feng Jin and others' female relatives cannot be missed in the invitation. However, many female family members declined, and the only woman who responded was Captain Dianyin's wife... Could it be...
Without waiting for Mrs. Han to smooth things over, Dianyin's wife smiled instead of anger, and said clearly, "Don't worry about it, there has never been a concubine in the family, only a concubine. If he has an act of infidelity, naturally I want to play the lord and order to make peace."
Ladies still want to laugh.
What is the next husband, what is this word?
