Chapter 846 First Talk About Women's Rights

On this night, there was no moon or stars, and it was pitch black outside. The six red lanterns in Jingyuan Hall look particularly warm in this silent and dark night.

Brother Hao's eyelids moved a few times, and then he slowly opened his eyes, and what caught his eyes was Yu Xi who was lying on his bedside. Brother Hao called softly: "Mother..."

The cry was so small that it was almost inaudible, at least Tong Fang who was waiting nearby didn't hear it, but Yu Xi immediately opened her eyes. Seeing Brother Hao wake up, Yu Xi was very happy: "Ah Hao, you're awake."

Brother Hao hummed and said: "Mom, I want to drink water." His throat is dry now, and he feels very uncomfortable.

Yuxi hurriedly stood up and poured a glass of water over, and fed it small by small spoonful. After feeding a small glass of water, Yu Xi asked, "Ah Hao, do you feel better now?"

After drinking water, my throat feels much better. Brother Hao said: "Mother, I'm much better now." Now my mind is very clear, not as groggy as before.

Hearing Brother Hao's stomach rumbling, a big smile appeared on Yu Xi's face: "Are you hungry? Mother will bring you something to eat."

Without Yuxi going out, Tong Fang has already brought over the food. Because Brother Hao is still not well, he can only eat some liquid food. Yuxi said with some distress: "When you recover, mother will ask Mama Bai to cook you a table of dishes you like."

Brother Hao looked up at Yuxi and asked, "Mother, am I getting better soon?" He now feels much more relaxed than before, and he should be getting better.

Yuxi nodded her head and said: "There is no danger to his life, but it will take about ten days to recover completely. You eat first, and then stepmother will tell you slowly after eating." Ah Hao is different from ordinary Child, so Yuxi is not going to hide it from him.

Hearing what Yuxi said that the next scab period would be difficult, Brother Hao said: "Mother, if I can't help itching to scratch at that time, you can tie me up!"

Yuxi also had this plan: "Well, mother just made you mentally prepared."

Brother Hao showed a weak smile.

When Yun Qing heard that Brother Hao had woken up, he dropped what he was doing and came to the door of Jingyuan Hall. Standing at the door, Yunqing shouted loudly: "Yuxi, Ahao..."

Brother Hao heard Yunqing's voice, looked at Yuxi in a daze and said, "Mother, I seem to hear my father calling me? Mother, did I hear it wrong?"

Yuxi smiled and said: "That's right, your father is back, at noon. He must have heard you wake up, so he couldn't help but come to see you."

Brother Hao hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, Dad has never had smallpox before, so you can't let him in." People who have never had smallpox don't know how terrible this disease is. If his mother hadn't been encouraging him by the bed, he really might not be able to endure it, it was too painful.

Yuxi nodded and said: "Mother won't let your father in, but if you have anything to say, Mother can forward it to him."

Brother Hao said: "I'm very happy that Dad is back." Although his father left the battle ahead and came back to see him very irresponsible, he was sweet in his heart.

Yuxi smiled and said, "Mother, go out and talk to your father, and ask your Aunt Tong to wipe your lower body." The potion for brother Hao's body was prepared by Doctor Jian himself. The effect is still very good.

The husband and wife are still talking through the door. Yun Qing asked: "Yuxi, I heard that Ah Hao woke up?"

Yuxi smiled and said: "Yes, Ah Hao just woke up. He knows that you are very happy for him to come back." Brother Hao felt that he was valued, so he was so happy.

Yun Qing's voice was a little low: "It's a pity that I can't see him now." He was a little depressed, why didn't he have smallpox when he was a child! If not, there is no need to be locked out.

If Yuxi knew what he was thinking, she would definitely be speechless. Only those who have had smallpox know,

How painful it is to be sick.

Yu Xi said: "Ah Hao is no longer in danger, so you don't have to worry, you will be able to see him in half a month."

Yun Qing knew that there was no shortcut to this matter, so he could only wait patiently: "You don't have to worry about the outside affairs, I will take care of them properly."

With Yunqing around, Yuxi didn't worry about any whores outside at all: "Did Yuan Bilin find out anything?" Now Yuxi is finally in the mood to ask about this matter.

Yun Qing said with some regret: "It was a step too late. The man left the northwest and disappeared. Although he didn't catch the person who silenced him, Yan Wushuang must be behind the scenes." After finishing speaking, Yun Qing looked ruthless. Said angrily: "Yuxi, I will definitely avenge Brother Hao for this revenge."

Yuxi frowned, she felt that Brother Hao's matter was not likely to be Yan Wushuang's handwriting. Because if Brother Hao is gone, it will not affect the overall situation, and it is impossible for Yan Wushuang to do such a thing. If he wanted to attack, he should attack Yunqing or her.

Thinking of this, Yu Xi said: "There's no rush, we'll talk about it when Brother Hao recovers from his illness." Now she doesn't have much time to think about it, and will investigate it slowly after Brother Hao recovers from his illness. If it was really Yan Wushuang's poisonous hands, she would definitely not let it go.

Yun Qing did not refuse: "Okay."

After saying a few more words, Yu Xi said: "Brother Hao is still waiting for me, I'm going to go in and take care of him." After speaking, Yu Xi added: "You should also take care of your health."

Yun Qing hummed and said: "You are the same. You must take good care of your health, don't wait for Brother Hao to recover, and you fall ill again."

Yuxi entered the room and said to Brother Hao: "Your father told you to get well soon, so that he can see you."

Brother Hao can't wait to get well soon! In the past, at most, I would catch some wind and cold, and it would be fine within two days. This time it was really a big crime.

After talking for a while, Yuxi looked at Brother Hao's mental state, and said softly, "Go to sleep!"

Seeing Yu Xi's haggard look, Brother Hao felt a little distressed. His mother looks much older than before. Brother Hao said in a low voice: "Mother, I'm fine, you go to sleep too!"

Yuxi nodded with a smile and said, "When you sleep, mother will go to rest too." Brother Hao's life is not in danger and she can go to sleep with peace of mind. Only when you have enough energy can you take better care of Brother Hao.

Yuxi herself had smallpox, and she had forgotten the previous things, but she did not forget the time when the scabs formed. During that time, it is not an exaggeration to describe the real things as days and years.

After Brother Hao fell asleep, Yuxi told Tong Fang a few words and then rested on the soft couch without Tong Fang's persuasion.

Brother Hao's situation is slowly improving. The most obvious manifestation is that the pustules on Hao Ge'er's body began to shrink and dry up, the surrounding redness disappeared, and the herpes gradually dried up, forming thick yellow-green scabs.

After twisting his body, Brother Hao said to Yuxi, "Mother, it's a little itchy." But it was still within the tolerable range, so Brother Hao didn't scratch it.

Yu Xi held Brother Hao's hand and said, "Be patient." This is just the beginning, and the period from scab formation to shedding is the most difficult.

Brother Hao nodded and said: "Mother, tell me about your childhood!" Children are very curious, and Brother Hao has always wanted to know about Yuxi's past.

If it was normal, Yuxi would definitely not tell Brother Hao. It's just that Brother Hao is a patient now, the world is big, and the patient is the biggest. Yuxi didn't refuse, and talking to Brother Hao could divert his attention: "Then, let's start talking about the smallpox."

When Yuxi talked about Han Jingyan giving Han Yuchen a gift but it was not for her, Brother Hao said: "Mother is so nice, why doesn't that person like you?"

Yuxi shook her head and said: "This mother doesn't know either, maybe it's because she doesn't have a relationship with her parents!" In fact, Yuxi knows why Han Jingyan doesn't like her, it's nothing more than hating Wujiwu.

After talking for half an hour, Yu Xi touched Brother Hao's head and said, "Sleep! Mother will tell you when I wake up."

Brother Hao felt uncomfortable hearing it, and he didn't feel sleepy, so he shook his head and said, "Mother, is the third aunt really as beautiful as you said?"

Yuxi smiled and said: "The appearance is like a fairy, and the country is beautiful. It is not an exaggeration to use these words to describe your third aunt. Moreover, since your third aunt grew up, there is no man who sees her without admiration." Appearance It was bestowed by God, and I can't envy this matter.

Brother Hao disagreed, and said: "I think mother is the most beautiful person in the world. And I believe that father must think the same as me."

Yu Xi couldn't help laughing: "My brother Hao has also learned to speak sweet words, which is great."

Being teased by Yuxi, Brother Hao didn't have any embarrassment: "Mother, in fact, I think appearance is second only, and the most important thing is to look at character, temperament and ability. In this regard, the third aunt is not even comparable to the strands of mother's hair." superior."

Yuxi snorted and said, "Why do you say that?"

Brother Hao said: "She is Emperor Fei's biological mother, how can she marry Yan Wushuang instead? Where will she leave Emperor Fei by doing this?" Brother Hao said that Emperor Fei was referring to Zhou Yan.

Yuxi thought for a while and asked: "Then what do you think she should do right?"

Brother Hao said coldly: "She should follow Emperor Sizong." This is what the world thinks. , Brother Hao was also deeply affected by it.

Yuxi didn't accuse Brother Hao, but asked: "Ah Hao, if, I mean if. If you replace your third aunt with your mother, as a son, do you want me to remarry, or do you want me to die?"

This is really unlucky. Brother Hao hurriedly said: "Mother, we are talking about the third aunt now."

Yuxi looked at Brother Hao firmly and said: "I just made an assumption. If you don't remarry, you will die. Ah Hao, if it were you, what choice would you make?"

Brother Hao looked at the seriousness in Yuxi's eyes, and knew that this was not a joke, so he fell into deep thought. After a while, Brother Hao said dejectedly: "I hope mother can live." Brother Hao couldn't say that Yuxi should remarry.

Yuxi was quite satisfied with this answer: "Your third aunt also committed suicide when she was arrested that day, but unfortunately she didn't die. As for why she remarried to Yan Wushuang later, I think she was coerced." After a pause, Yu Xi said: "Ah Hao, dying is easy, but sometimes living is suffering."

Brother Hao has a better understanding of the outside world: "Even if Mother said she was coerced into remarrying, but she gave birth to twins for Yan Wushuang, Yan Wushuang can't force her to do this, right? Mother, if it was changed to It's you, will you give birth to the enemy?" Without Yu Xi answering, he knew it was impossible.

Yu Xi did not answer this question, but said: "Ah Hao, do you think this woman's husband should not remarry after her death?"

Ah Hao couldn't answer this question for a while. After all, he is an eight-year-old child, and this question is too far away from him.

Yuxi showed sarcasm, and said: "A man can remarry in a blink of an eye after his wife dies, but a woman cannot remarry after her husband dies. She is not allowed to remarry if she has children. Anyway, there is hope. But some women have no children. Her husband is dead and she is not allowed to remarry, so living like this is no different from a walking dead." The folk customs in the northwest are open, and it is normal for widows to remarry. But widows are not allowed to remarry in the capital and many places, and life is extremely difficult.

After hearing this, Brother Hao asked, "Mother, do you think a woman should remarry after her husband dies?"

Yuxi shook her head and said: "When a woman dies, her husband should decide whether to remarry or not. She should decide, not others. But this world is unfair to women, and women's fate is determined by the clan and husband's family."

Brother Hao felt that the question was too profound, and he didn't know how to answer it. After a long time, Brother Hao asked: "Mother, what do you want to do?" With her mother's temperament, since she is not used to this phenomenon, she will definitely do something.

Yuxi didn't hide it from Brother Hao, saying: "Mother wants to change this status quo." She didn't expect women to be equal to men, but only hoped that through her efforts, women's status could be improved, so that their lives could be better. Live better and no longer be the target of random bullying and oppression.

Speaking of this, Yu Xi deliberately paused, looked at Brother Hao and said: "However, it is difficult to change the status quo, and it will take a long process, and it may not even be realized in Mother's lifetime."

Brother Hao said: "Mother, if ten years is not enough, then twenty years. I believe that as long as you have the heart, you can definitely change this situation."

Yuxi said very seriously: "If mother doesn't do it, mother hopes that Ah Hao can help mother realize this wish." This is the purpose of Yuxi saying this to Brother Hao.

Brother Hao understood, his mother told him this matter specifically to get his support. Brother Hao immediately stated: "Don't worry, mother, Ah Hao will definitely help mother fulfill this wish." No one knows how many people's fates have been changed by a very ordinary conversation between mother and son.

Yu Xi smiled and said, "Okay."

After talking for a long time, Brother Hao was a little tired: "Mother, when I wake up, you can continue to tell me about your stay in the Han Mansion." Just now I was caught up in my own question.

Yu Xi didn't refuse, she covered him with a quilt and said, "Don't worry, I won't go back on what I promised you." The child was a little too curious. What's so interesting about this old sesame seed and rotten millet!

After Brother Hao fell asleep, Tong Fang said: "Princess, the medicine bath is ready, you can soak in it." Yuxi hasn't taken a bath since Brother Hao fell ill. She couldn't take care of anything because she was worried about Brother Hao before, but now Yuxi herself can't bear it.

After soaking in the medicated bath for less than half an hour, I changed the water to rinse three times, and the skin after washing was a little whitish. (to be continued)
