After the porcelain basin became fine, I was sent to the wild to do infrastructure construction

Chapter 342 Chapter 342, Women under Feudalism 1
"Hahahaha~ Does anyone want to buy her? The price is not high, 50 taels of silver is fine, and there is a small one here. Don't say that I, Li San, don't care about benevolence. Who made the two of them owe it to their fathers?" Silver from our casino.

The so-called repayment of debts is justified. Their father couldn't pay back, so they voluntarily used the two of them to pay off the debts. This has nothing to do with Li San. If someone present is willing to spend money to buy them, I will naturally be happy too.

50 taels per person, if I can buy the two sisters together, how about I, Li San, being able to charge ten taels less?Is there anything to buy?Hurry up, if no one buys it, we have to send the two of them to Manchunlou in the county seat. "

The man in the casino smiled wildly, and shouted at the crowd watching. Although his mouth was full of benevolence, the expression on his face was obviously not like that.

Sure enough, after hearing the quotation, all the onlookers backed away in fright, as if they were afraid of getting into big trouble.

What are you kidding?A girl sells for 50 taels of silver, which is definitely a high price. Nowadays, buying a maid in a dental shop costs at most ten taels of silver, and even buying a male slave who can manage things is only a few dozen taels.

But now an ordinary girl costs 50 taels of silver?Is this buying a maid?I'm afraid I bought an ancestor to go back, right?It is only two or three taels of silver for a rural family to buy a woman to carry on the family line. How many women can these 50 taels buy?

Are they stupid, and they are willing to spend 50 taels of silver just to buy a maid?
Isn't this being taken advantage of?They don't like it.

Seeing this scene, the girl with her wrists bound rushed forward, asking for help from the crowd.

"Young master, please do me a favor and buy the little girl. I am willing to serve you as a slave for the rest of my life to repay your kindness!"

"My lord, please, I can do everything and I don't eat much"

"Lang Jun, please help me~ I don't want to be sold into a brothel, I just want a shelter from the wind and rain"

"Brother, can you buy the little girl? I know how to cook, and I can do housework."

The big girl had red eyes, a slightly pale face, a few teardrops stained the corners of her eyes, her hair was a little disheveled, and her thin body was trembling slightly.

She lingered in the crowd, begging with both hands on the sleeves of others, but was repeatedly rejected by the other party.

"Hey~ It's really pitiful. It's a crime. Maybe someone is willing to pay fifty taels, but who is willing to buy a girl for 50 taels."

Seeing this scene, Sister-in-law Wu couldn't bear to sigh, it wasn't that she deliberately belittled women, but that in this world, girls are worthless, and there is really a shortage of maids and daughter-in-laws to serve others. cost-effective?
Hearing this, Xia Ning couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips, "Sister-in-law Wu, do you really think that girl is very pitiful?"

"Ah? She is about to be sold into a brothel, isn't it pitiful?"

Sister-in-law Wu was dumbfounded by the question. If this is not pitiful, what is pitiful?
How important is a woman's reputation, even if she is a widow and remarries, no one will say anything, but unless the woman who comes out of the brothel is the kind of poor old bachelor or widower who is willing to accept her, any decent family will not want it .

There was a smile on the corner of Xia Ning's mouth, "Didn't you notice?"

"What did you find?" Sister-in-law Wu rolled her eyes, her curiosity completely overwhelmed.

Xia Ning whispered, "Didn't you notice that the people that the girl grabbed were all young men who looked good in clothes?"

"It seems so, what's wrong with that?"

Sister-in-law Wu looked puzzled, she didn't quite understand what was wrong with this, but she knew that Miss Xia was not an ordinary woman, since she said so, there must be something wrong with it that she didn't see.

Seeing that the other party didn't notice it, Xia Ning was not surprised. After all, the ancients were exposed to too few routines, and most ordinary people's minds were simple and simple. How could they see the twists and turns?
To be honest, Xia Ning was also a little surprised. I didn't expect that the memes played in modern times would actually make her meet in ancient times. This is really interesting.

"You said that the eldest girl would rather sell herself as a slave than send her into a brothel. Wouldn't she be able to get out of trouble if she sold it to anyone? But why did she only find young and well-dressed men?"

"This..." Sister-in-law Wu was directly stopped by the question. She frowned and thought about Miss Xia's words carefully. She didn't think deeply about what she said.

"Hey! Dare to be affectionate is such a thing, ho! I really didn't see it. This girl looks young, and I didn't expect her to be so smart. She was almost cheated by her, bah!"

After all, Sister-in-law Wu is also a person in her 30s, and she is also a woman. She has some thoughts that cannot withstand scrutiny. Coupled with Xia Ning's advice, she quickly reacted.

Xia Ning smiled slightly, "Understood?"

"Well, it's a good thing you saw through her mind, otherwise we would have been fooled by her foolishly." Sister-in-law Wu was very annoyed that she, Wang Chunmei, was deceived by a little girl, and she didn't even notice the other party's intentions.

This girl is really playing around with everyone. Thanks to everyone's sympathy for her, they are still indignant about her fate. The lovers have lofty goals.

"Actually, it's understandable. After all, everyone has a love for beauty. This man likes young and beautiful girls, and women naturally like young and handsome men. It's human nature for her to want to fight for a better future for herself. Don't you want to have a good time?"

Xia Ning's expression was indifferent, and her tone of voice was also indifferent, as if there was no trace of emotion involved.

In fact, she felt a little sad for the women of this era, as long as they had one more choice, they wouldn't 'practice' themselves like this.

For example, the eldest lady of the Cao family, to be honest, she didn't dislike her very much. On the contrary, she also expressed her understanding of Cao Yingying's actions, but she didn't agree with some of her actions.

Understanding and agreeing are two different things.

Women in this era are basically confined to the three-acre land in the backyard, which dooms their vision and knowledge to be very limited. In addition, women in ancient times paid attention to the vulgar custom of "no talent is virtue". I don't even know a few big characters.

These brains are not fully 'wisdom', what kind of self-awareness can they be expected to have?They can only grow up properly under the feudal dogma.

For them, when encountering such a major event as a family accident, the only way out they can think of is to get married and find a man to survive.
