After eating and drinking, everyone returned to their own little world.
However, Zheng Xiong walked with Jia, including his mother and Wei Hong, to the backyard.
In the room, a brazier was burning, and several women were sitting around Zheng Xiong, waiting for Zheng Xiong to start class.
They are all relatively close, except for the boss's daughter-in-law, but there are not so many men and women who don't look at any inappropriate behavior.
"Xiong'er, if you say you can speak to the Queen, let them all listen. Now that we are together, don't be pretentious and speak quickly!"
Jia's usual impatience may be due to her deep yearning for the circle.
Since Zheng Xiong said that he could speak to Queen Ma, he took it to heart, and now he is urging him.
Zheng Xiong leaned his hand against the brazier at a comfortable angle, and then spoke slowly.
"You're welcome, kid. In fact, there's nothing difficult about this matter. It's easy to talk to the Queen."
"Auntie, before we talk about this topic, I would like to ask you to answer a little question. What do you think of the status of your women? Is it high? Do you have any thoughts on improving the status of women?"
Zheng Xiong's sudden question made several people think deeply.
In this era where men are superior to women, talking about status is not a hooligan!
No wonder Zheng Xiong wanted to talk to a few women alone. If he let the gentlemen talk about this topic, he might have to beat up such a traitor.
When it comes to the status of women, we can still use Li Qingzhao as a reference.
Needless to say, the relationship between Li Qingzhao and Zhao Mingcheng is lamentable.
Married Zhang Ruzhou again.
Zhang Ruzhou has long coveted her precious collection.
When they found out after their marriage that Li Qingzhao didn't have much property in his home, he was greatly disappointed. Then they started quarreling, swearing, and even punching each other.
Zhang Ruzhou's barbaric behavior made Li Qingzhao intolerable.
Later, it was discovered that Zhang Ruzhou was also guilty of embezzlement for personal gain and false reporting of statistics to obtain official positions.
Li Qingzhao reported Zhang Ruzhou to the official and asked for a divorce.
After being found to be true, Zhang Ruzhou was removed from his post and assigned to Liuzhou.
Although Li Qingzhao was approved for divorce, the law of the Song Dynasty stipulated that a wife suing her husband would be sentenced to 2 years in prison, so he was also imprisoned.
This is the famous Li Qingzhao, a famous talented woman who is going to jail, and if she wants a divorce, she has to overthrow Zhang Ruzhou first.
If it had been someone else, it would have been even more difficult.
Women are basically divorced, and only a few are divorced.
In terms of status between men and women, they have always been in a weak position.
Seeing what Zheng Xiong said, Mrs. Jia thought about her status.
Okay! The main wife of the family, except for Lao Zheng, is somewhat lacking in confidence.
On weekdays, when facing women such as the three brothers Zheng Xiong and Han Yuer, they are all characters who have the upper hand.
It can be said that only under Lao Zheng, Lao Zheng is first in the family and Jia is second.
And Lao Zheng also gave Jia enough respect, and he really didn't think that the status of women could be lower.
"Your dad is usually quite nice. Our family has never been really angry with anyone. We all treat everyone equally."
"However, this is also for your father's benefit. The women outside have talked to us a few times on weekdays."
"It's not like us. Not only do we have to compete for favor in front of men, but we also face the risk of falling out of favor if we are not careful."
"If you make a man unhappy, it's okay to be left out. At most, your status will be reduced. If it's more serious, you'll be fired immediately."
"We have never experienced this, and we don't know whether it is true or not. Can you see if this is the case?"
"Compared to men, it goes without saying whether your status is lower or higher."
"However, this thing is not something I can lift just because I want to."
"I think so! As long as a woman takes care of her husband and raises her children, it's enough to follow the three obediences and four virtues. The rest is your men's business, including their status.
The low point is acceptable. "
Seeing what Jia said, Zheng Xiong couldn't convince Jia for a while.
After all, Jia doesn’t even have any ideas about women’s rights, so it’s impossible to expect her to raise her thoughts to the level of women’s rights.
Zheng Xiong could only listen slowly with Jia and the women in the room.
"I think so! In fact, men and women are pretty much the same. Women can also hold up half the sky."
"For example, my wife, since her parents passed away, has been pulling in several brothers until now."
"I don't agree with saying that she is inferior to men."
"Moreover, there are many examples of this in this world. Not long after the world was peaceful, many men in the family did not come back."
"And their whole family has lost their labor force, and many of them rely on women to support their families."
"So, in my opinion, it's not that women are useless, but that men, as the dominant player, do not give women a chance to develop."
"Women's physical strength declines more seriously during certain special periods. For example, when they are pregnant, they are basically unable to work for ten months."
"You are physically inferior to men, and you have to be taken care of by someone else, or you are directly taken care of by men. Naturally, you are inferior to others."
"Mom, mother, and you guys, let's see if this is true. Am I right?"
Reviewing Zheng Xiong's words carefully, Wei Hong felt somewhat the same way.
She raised several brothers from childhood to adulthood. Although it was very difficult, she really didn't feel that she was inferior to men, she just felt that she was still young.
It’s just that you are powerless to pull a few people along.
The other people didn't know how to answer at all.
And the words Zheng Xiong said were a bit hollow.
I'm used to it at home, but you suddenly told me that you are self-reliant, isn't it nonsense?
Men make money to support the family, and women take care of the man's three meals a day at home.
I didn't expect to be on par with men at all.
Besides, women can't really hold up half the sky like men.
The difference in physical strength is unfair.
Not to mention the differences in body structure, women are inherently disadvantaged in this regard.
"You're right, what can we do? Besides, men are suffering outside so that their families can have enough to eat. Even if a woman's status is lower at home, it doesn't matter! I can accept it."
Jia said to Zheng Xiong, and Zheng Xiong was speechless if he could accept it.
After talking for a long time, I didn’t say that I didn’t even touch the shadow of feminism, and I didn’t inherit any of the excellent genes of feminism on the Internet.
Nowadays, there is little interest even in improving the status of women. As expected, there is still a long way to go.
Zheng Xiong spoke slowly and spoke meaningfully to several women.
"Actually, men and women should be equal, and these simple gaps are not irreparable."
"The improvement of women's status cannot be made up for by just saying it can be made up for."
"The key point is that what a man can do, a woman may not be unable to do."
"As long as women's division of labor in society is equally outstanding and no worse than that of men, then women's status will naturally improve."
"Things don't need to be said specifically, but expressed through actions, and there is no better way to make things clear than by providing enough labor for women to participate."
What Zheng Xiong said was very good, and Mrs. Jia and the women also understood. What Zheng Xiong meant was that women can hold up half the sky.
Women are not weaker than others, and the key is that there are enough jobs suitable for women.
It sounds nice, but it’s very difficult.
There is an invisible barrier between men and women, and the lack of intimacy between men and women is a natural yoke.
Secondly, there are jobs suitable for women. From ancient times to the present, there are really not many jobs suitable for women, which are just sewing and mending.
The two questions together were somewhat unanswerable. Jia and several women all looked at Zheng Xiong.
Jia also confessed her feelings to Zheng Xiong
view in.
"In the final analysis, even if we are not afraid of publicity, there are not many suitable jobs. As long as there are no jobs, improving our status is basically empty talk."
Zheng Xiong nodded and said affirmatively to Jia.
"Auntie is right. I have some ideas here that can provide some jobs for some women and improve the status of some women. And there will be no shortage of such jobs in the future."
"Auntie, if you have nothing to do on weekdays, you can go talk to the Queen about this."
"The Queen empress is the mother of the world. I think she should be able to give some support to this kind of thing."
Zheng Xiong is talking nonsense, but the key point is that a man is giving advice to women and telling them to improve women's status.
It's unrealistic no matter how you look at it.
It's just like one day when a man has sex with a woman and then tells you that I am a good person and you believe me and I won't harm you, it's not very reliable.
However, after listening to it, it still makes sense. It doesn’t say much, it just allows women to improve their status.
Let Queen Ma see the feasibility of the operation.
There will be no less support for Zheng Xiong in the future.
And Jia was able to stay in the palace and talk to Queen Ma.
In short, Zheng Xiong's words were not in vain.
Several women knew the term womanhood.
And there is more expectation that women can hold up half the sky.
At this point, Jia was looking forward to Zheng Xiong's words.
However, I am not too optimistic, as deep-rooted ideas are not so easy to break.
Jia's main reason is that being able to run to the palace every day is a bit of a prestige.
After thinking about it, Mrs. Jia said to Zheng Xiong.
"Xiong'er, when do you want to go to the palace? Are there any positions that women can try?"
This brings me to the point.
There are quite a few positions suitable for women.
Compared with men, women are more careful at work and are more tolerant of tempers.
Ever since I took over the pharmacy, I wanted to replace it with a younger girl. Unfortunately, I knew how difficult it would be. Given my status, it would be troublesome, and it never took shape.
Now I can turn my ideas into reality.
Let Mr. Jia go to Queen Ma's palace to have some fun and explore the way.
If it works well.
Wouldn't it be better to have rows of white and beautiful long legs serving patients in the pharmacy in the summer?
You can also spend more time at the pharmacy.
"Mom, we men are more careless, but women are more careful."
"My pharmacy here could use some hiring. Sometimes it's more reassuring to have women come in for certain things."
"As long as the Queen can agree with it, then these positions are not a problem, just go ahead and say it."
Jia was deceived by Zheng Xiong, and she actually listened.
"Okay, without further ado, I will go to see the Queen tomorrow. As for the arrangements at the pharmacy, you can take care of it. Don't wait for me to come back. You can first recruit a few women to serve as role models. They will be whiter than me. Say hello to the Queen?"...
Jia's words are quite good. It's impossible to attack first. You can't betray the camp so blatantly.
Queen Ma doesn't endorse it, so she can't do it herself.
Otherwise, if feminism comes in the future, I will have to bear the infamy of my male compatriots for the rest of my life.
"Auntie, if you are troubled, I'd better check your news! The person who arranges the arrangements still needs the Queen's approval."
Jia didn't say much when she saw this. She got a lot of things out of Zheng Xiong today.
Everything is a good thing from its own point of view.
It’s just that Zheng Xiong somewhat betrayed the camp.
It’s enough for me to digest it myself, and I’ll go to see Queen Ma one day.
Then he asked Zheng Xiong to leave.
Inside the house, several women also dispersed.
Everyone who is interested is thinking about Zheng Xiong’s meaning.
Who says women are inferior to men.
Qian, the wife of the boss Zheng Hu, thinks so.
The first reason I came to marry Zheng Hu was because Zheng Xiong was a rising star, and marrying her was considered a venture capital investment.
Now look at it, the return on investment is hundreds of percent, making a lot of money.
Apart from Zheng Xiong, Qian didn't think highly of Zheng Hu. Under the same conditions, Qian didn't think Zheng Hu was better than herself.
Moreover, he still had a pockmarked face, and Qian was indeed a little aggrieved.
Now that I heard Zheng Xiong's long speech, my heart immediately resonated with him.
I want to see what kind of changes Zheng Xiong can bring to these women.
Of course, due to lack of strength, Qian still focused on watching the theater, and it was impossible for him to end up clearly supporting Zheng Xiong's point of view.
Early the next morning, Mrs. Jia couldn't wait to ask her maid to send a message to the palace, asking about Queen Ma's daily arrangements and conveying the news that she wanted to see her.
After seeing Jia's letter, Empress Ma also summoned him.
Zheng Xiong's title played a big role, and the title of Marquis is no longer so easily ignored.
"Queen, my wife, Mrs. Jia, please see your empress. She is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old."
"No gift."
Hearing what Empress Ma said, Jia stopped her movements, finished her courtesy, and stood aside.
But Queen Ma asked Jia.
"You said you have something to say to me, or about improving the status of women, but?"
Jia Shi smiled proudly.
"Of course, let the Queen know that my second boy said that the pharmacy can get some girls and women to work."
"When women and men do similar work, then women's status improvement will no longer be a dream."
"Pharmacies can be used as a pilot to see the effect. If the effect is good, it can also give women more choices."
Queen Ma thought for a moment and then asked Jia.
"You've been talking for a long time. Did Zheng Xiong teach you to come here just to tell me to replace the pharmacy with some women?"
It's so pitiful that Zheng Xiong didn't really think about it like this at first. He just wanted to find something for Jia.
Find some common topics with Queen Ma, use the topic of women as an introduction, and explore in depth.
But talking about such a good opportunity, it is the common mission of every man to have more careful people in the pharmacy and work hard to liberate the female public.
Not only does it give women something to do, but it also adds a beautiful scenery to the pharmacy, so why not do it.
