In the end, Xiaobao did not go to Huangfuhui. Yu Le didn't know what new ideas Xiaobao had, so it didn't matter. Moreover, Huanyan had less contact with Ehuang. The gap began to grow wider and wider. Yu Le couldn't figure out what caused it?
"Zhang Cheng, why are you here?" Yu Le met his childhood friend and student, and the eldest son of car rental owner Zhang Gui.
"Um, sir, please save my sister Zhen'er, right?" After saying that, he knelt down in front of Yu Le.
Yu Le was shocked, how serious this was! Why are you kneeling down for yourself? Yu Le hurriedly stepped forward to help Zhang Cheng up and said, "What's going on?"
"Brother Le! My father wants to marry my sister to the stupid son of the blacksmith Uncle Lin. Uncle Lin gave my father a hundred taels of silver. You have to save my sister! She can't marry that man. You idiot!" Zhang Cheng is two years older than Yu Le. Although he is also married, he has a weak character and can't beat a fart with a stick. It seems that he really feels sorry for his sister this time, otherwise he wouldn't come to Yu Le. Happy.
Yu Le knew that it was difficult for an upright official to deal with household matters, especially marriage matters. What a good thing! In this era, Yu Le sometimes feels very helpless. People are preoccupied with how to make money. Selling their daughters is also a common phenomenon. This is basically the same as the phenomenon of betrothal gifts in modern society. They are all forced by money!
"I, let me go and have a look!" Yu Le couldn't refuse, so he could only go through the motions and persuade Uncle Zhang, but there was nothing he could do if Uncle Zhang didn't agree.
"Yu, Master Yu is here. The common people pay homage to Master Yu." At this time, Zhang Gui was full of energy and had a look on his face. His daughter had earned one hundred taels of silver for herself, which was something worth showing off. You don’t complain about selling your daughter, you only complain about it if you can’t get a good price!
"Uncle Zhang, you look good! People feel refreshed when happy events happen!"
"Hehe, it's true, your sister Zhen'er is going to get married soon, and the other party gave her a hundred taels!" Zhang Gui had a look of arrogance on his face. Yu Le saw it in his eyes and hated it in his heart. This kind of villain's triumphant expression was really annoying. He couldn't afford to sell his daughter but he was still proud of it. Alas! Ignorance and stupidity are so terrible! Yu Le thought that it was not easy for the great party to succeed!
"Uncle Zhang, don't you think about sister Zhen'er's happiness? She married a fool?"
"Whether she is happy or not, this is her life. Besides, the Lin family is a rich family, so they don't have to worry about food and clothing!"
Yu Le was really speechless, "Uncle Zhang, this has nothing to do with material things. The key is that sister Zhen'er faces a fool every day. She will be lacking in her future life."
"I don't understand what you are talking about about material things or what is missing. Anyway, it will be good for both families if she gets married. Isn't that a good thing? Her parents worked hard to raise her. There is nothing wrong with bringing her back to the family in exchange for money when she is older!"
Yu Le really had nothing to say. What he said was reasonable, because from Zhang Gui's point of view, there was nothing wrong with this issue. In this era, women have no human rights. The three obediences are "obeying the father before marrying, obeying the husband when married, and obeying the son after the husband dies." The four virtues are "women's virtue, women's speech, women's appearance, and women's merit." These are all tightly bound. The status of women in society. If Yu Le wants to change the status of women, he must overthrow the old society, but this is not easy!
Out of good intentions, Yu Le finally bought Zhang Zhen back with one hundred and ten taels of silver to be Emperor E's maid. Emperor E was not angry after hearing Yu Le's story, but asked Yu Le weakly: "Are you going to buy back all these people?"
Yu Le couldn't answer because he really couldn't help!
The matter seemed to be resolved, but in fact it left a mess! Because Uncle Lin, the blacksmith, quit his job, Uncle Lin thought that Yu Le ruined his family's good deeds by bullying others with his official position. Although he did not dare to sue the official, he said a lot of bad things about Yu Le in private to calm his anger! So rumors began to spread on the streets about how miserable Yu Le was, how he bullied the people, and how greedy he was! The key is that Zhang Gui also came out to make up for it and told outsiders how Yu Le had fallen in love with his daughter. The two had been childhood sweethearts since childhood. Now they were officials and rich. Although Zhang Zhen could not be made his wife, She can also be a concubine. She will be Yu Le's father-in-law from now on, but she is very cool now!
The rumors naturally reached Yu Le's ears, and Yu Le felt very regretful. He was really nosy! I didn’t expect that it would be involved in so many messy things! It’s true that the trees want to be quiet but the wind doesn’t stop!
Yu Le thought about the solution for a day and had a headache. Under Ehuang's comfort, both of them got drunk. Tan Qiao watched the young couple being helped into the bedroom and sighed. Doing good deeds became the eyes of the people. The bad things here are truly terrifying! If this trend prevails, will anyone dare to do good deeds? What a fucking era. All moral ethics are reversed, right and wrong are reversed! This world is really hopeless!
Yu Le came to the school early the next morning, gathered everyone, including people from the military school, and asked them to conduct a social survey. There were only three questions in the survey, which were about Yu Le buying Zhang Zhen as a slave. Is it right or wrong? Is Zhang Gui selling his daughter right or wrong? Is Uncle Lin buying his daughter-in-law right or wrong?
The students were surprised and surprised by such a new investigation. They were all curious about the results of the investigation, and of course they also had their own opinions. Everyone took the questionnaire to the divided area and started the first historic social questionnaire. They did not know the advanced nature of this move! Yu Le's request is not only to survey questions, but also to survey the population of Lushan County. Yu Le requires that all those who go out for the questionnaire must record the family situation, population situation, and income of the person being questioned. It can also be regarded as a population and economic census!
Yu Le doesn't want to continue to dwell on this matter, because rumors only stop with wise men! If you face such trivial things every day, then you don't have to do anything.
The students walked happily through the streets. At this time, someone came to report that a man named Zhao Pu came to Yu Le. When Yu Le heard it, holy shit! This man even came to see him, haha... Yu Le hurried out to see Zhao Pu.
Zhao Pu was born in 922 AD and is only thirty years old now. When he stood in front of Yu Le, Yu Le was extremely excited. He finally met the legendary figure in "Half of the Analects Rules the World". Zhao Pu was neither tall nor short, and was a little thin. , but very strong and average-looking, but very bookish. Yu Le wondered if this person was close to the Analects of Confucius.
"Hello, Mr. Zhao, I have admired your name for a long time. I am really lucky to meet you today!" Yu Le's words surprised Zhao Pu. He was already so famous! Why don’t you know?
"Um, Master Yu, you are serious. I am just a mountain villager, but I am not as outstanding as the master said!"
Yu Le also remembered that Zhao Pu has not really come to the forefront of history, and he has been abrupt. Yu Le looked at Zhao Pu with some embarrassment, "Oh! Mr. Zhao, please come inside."
Zhao Pu originally came here because he was interested in the new Lushan County and Yu Le. He wanted to see where the new Lushan County was and where Yu Le was! However, Zhao Pu's first impression of Le was not good. He was too exaggerated and hypocritical, and did not look like a sincere and trustworthy person. In Zhao Pu's first impression, Yu Le failed. This is just like participating in an interview. If the interviewee's first impression does not pass in the eyes of HR, then there is basically a high probability of being eliminated, because in HR's mind, the candidate is selected for the company. People choose their spouses for the same reason. The matching degree must reach more than 80%, and just after entering the next round, the matching degree of the actual selected ones is basically more than 95%. In the interview, eye connection is very important.
