Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Chapter 230: Cause some trouble for Qin
I was strolling on the street with He Yushui that day when I suddenly heard a woman's voice.

"This is an arranged marriage, which is against the country's marriage law. It's against the law, do you understand? Zhao Xiaoya, tell me how this arranged marriage hurt you."

The woman who was asked was confused. Nowadays, when people look for a partner, parents or matchmakers introduce them to each other, and if they like each other, they get married. How can this be illegal?

"Secretary Yue, without my parents or a matchmaker to introduce me, how can I meet another man? Without their consent, wouldn't it be considered elopement? If caught, they will be thrown into the pig cage."

The people watching the fun nearby were all murmuring.

Yue Baofang snorted and began to explain to them what free love is...

The first law after the founding of New China was the Marriage Law. After the promulgation of the Marriage Law, the government has been promoting and publicizing the Marriage Law to improve the family status of women.

The Women's Federation was the main force in promoting the Marriage Law, but the effect was not very good at the beginning and a lot of troubles occurred.

Yue Baofang is the person in charge of this work in the street.

There's nothing wrong with this person, except that he's a bit bookish and too dogmatic.

In order to promote the marriage law, some people took some extreme measures, resulting in many couples getting divorced and families being in disharmony.

In the second half of 52, someone reported the incident and she was dismissed from her job.

According to incomplete statistics from the old ladies in the courtyards, in just half a year, under Yue Baofang's work, hundreds of divorce cases occurred on the street.

During Sha Zhu's lifetime, Siheyuan was under the control of Yi Zhonghai, and no bad news could leak out, so Yue Baofang had never been to Siheyuan.

This time, He Yuzhu wants to invite her to go.

He Yuzhu held He Yushui's hand and followed Yue Baofang all the way until they reached a secluded place, where he called her.

"Secretary Yue."

Yue Baofang turned around and saw a man with a little girl, so she asked, "You called me."

He Yuzhu said: "Yes."

"Who are you and what do you want me to do?" Yue Baofang looked at He Yuzhu with a little wariness.

There were many spies at that time, and people working in the government were all wary.

He Yuzhu quickly introduced himself, and Yue Baofang was relieved: "What do you want to ask me?"

He Yuzhu said, "I was just listening to you promoting that method over there."

"Marriage Law." Yue Baofang corrected.

He Yuzhu nodded: "Yes, it is the Marriage Law. I have listened to what you said and have some questions. I wonder if I can ask you."

Yue Baofang said: "Of course you can ask, I will definitely answer you."

He Yuzhu pretended to be cautious: "I'm afraid of offending people. Secretary Yue, you can see that my sister and I depend on each other now. If others find out, I'm afraid..."

Yue Baofang said with hatred: "Don't worry, no one dares to retaliate against you. If anyone wants to retaliate against you, just tell me."

He Yuzhu pretended to believe her and then said, "Forget it! I can't afford to offend them. Yushui, let's go."

Yue Baofang's curiosity was aroused: "What are you afraid of? Comrade, you must trust the government."

He Yuzhu sighed: "Of course I believe in the government. If I were alone, I wouldn't be afraid of anything, but I have a seven-year-old sister. I'm worried that if they find out, they won't dare to retaliate against me, but will retaliate against my sister.

You can go to our courtyard and ask around. We brothers and sisters have all become disloyal, unfilial, unkind and unjust bastards."

Yue Baofang looked down at He Yushui, who smiled cleverly. She felt that such a cute little girl didn't look like a bad person at all.

"Your name is He Yushui, tell me what people in your courtyard say about you." He Yushui glanced at He Yuzhu, and seeing that He Yuzhu didn't object, she started talking. Things like forcing them to give up their food, bringing people to kick their door, and so on.

She was smart to begin with. She was able to get into high school in a courtyard environment, so she was definitely not stupid. She drank a lot of spiritual spring water from He Yuzhu in this life, which made her even smarter.

According to He Yushui's narration, the brother and sister lived an even more miserable life than in the old society.

"This is ridiculous. How can people like them be liaison officers? They are calling them uncles and uncles. Are they going to rebel? I must report this to the leaders of the Military Control Commission."

He Yuzhu pretended to scold He Yushui: "Why are you so ignorant? If they find out, can we still live in the courtyard?"

He Yushui pretended to be aggrieved and about to cry. Maybe because she had seen Qin Huairu too much, she looked 70% to 80% like Qin Huairu.

He Yuzhu really wanted to teach her a lesson. Who would want a decent girl to learn from Qin Huairu?

Yue Baofang said: "He Yuzhu, how can you say that about Yu Shui? She is telling the truth. If everyone conceals these things like you, then they are helping the tyrant."

He Yuzhu looked terrified: "Secretary Yue, there is nothing I can do. If I don't listen to them, they will send pregnant women and elderly ladies to trouble me.

They said I was unfilial and didn't take care of women. They were so many and powerful that I couldn't defend myself. "

Yue Baofang said: "Don't worry, I will definitely do justice for you."

He Yuzhu did not come to her to seek justice. She could not do justice.

"Secretary Yue, I appreciate your kindness. I just ask you not to tell anyone that I saw you. I'm really afraid that they will deal with Yu Shui."

He Yushui started crying softly.

Yue Baofang said firmly: "Don't worry, I swear to you that I will never tell you even if I die."

He Yuzhu was completely relieved. People like Yue Baofang were very loyal to the old man and would never go against his words.

"Secretary Yue, I believe you. I came to you this time because I heard your propaganda just now. The pregnant woman in our hospital kept telling people around our hospital that her life was miserable and that she couldn't make ends meet.

In addition, she said her mother-in-law often beat her and forced her to borrow meat from other people's homes. If she couldn't borrow meat, she wouldn't be allowed to eat.

I just want to ask if this is considered an arranged marriage and if it violates the marriage law."

Yue Baofang asked, "Did she really say that?"

He Yuzhu nodded: "You can go around and ask around. Many people around us are forced to help her. Apart from helping her, everyone has no other options. From what you said just now, it seems that the country still supports divorce in this situation, right?"

Yue Baofang said, "You listened carefully. That's right, for those forced marriages, the government supports their divorce. I remember what you said, and I will investigate. As long as it is verified, I will definitely go to your hospital to seek justice for Qin Huairu."

He Yuzhu took He Yushui away with satisfaction.

He Yushui looked at He Yuzhu expectantly: "Brother, where is my reward?"

He Yuzhu gave her a slap on the head: "What reward? I told you not to imitate Qin Huairu, why didn't you listen? Looking at the way you were just now, is there anything a decent girl would do like that?"

He Yushui covered her head and shouted angrily: "I am doing this to help you. If you don't reward me, I will go find my godmother and ask her to help me vent my anger."

He Yuzhu was terrified, because He Yushui was in school and could only go to his teacher's wife during holidays. Every time the teacher's wife saw him, she would nag him for a long time.

"I'm scared of you. Tell me, what do you want to eat?"

He Yushui tilted her head and thought for a while, then said, "I want to eat roast duck. Last time Aunt Xu came back, her family went to Quanjude to eat roast duck. Can I go too?"

Seeing her pitiful little eyes, He Yuzhu felt a little soft-hearted. He waved his hand and took her to Quanjude.
