Chapter 197 If all this is a dream

"They can all pass the same exam," the little demon said leisurely.

"Our child will definitely pass the exam." Qian Xiaoxiao replied silently.

"Hey, eldest sister, I mean their son, not our child."

"Your child?" Qian Xiaoxiao felt awkward hearing this.

"I'm much older than you."

"Go, go, go."

"Boss Qian?"

"Huh?" Qian Xiaoxiao chatted with Xiao Yao and then walked away for a while.

"I said, why don't you send a letter to the elders in the golden girl's family?"

Qian Xiaoxiao: I haven’t given up yet. Besides, she can’t be contacted, and it’s impossible to contact her. The child is still so young.

It would be nice to raise the age of marriage in ancient times.

"Don't think that only modern society has legal regulations on the age of marriage. Ancient traditional societies also had laws." Xiaoyao said.

"Nonsense, can I not know? As early as the Western Zhou Dynasty, the prevailing marriage age system was that men should be married at thirty and women should be married at twenty. People at that time believed that men had strong bones and muscles at the age of thirty and could be fathers; A woman is mature enough to be a mother at twenty, which reflects the improvement of people's understanding of physiological knowledge at that time.

However, after the Western Zhou Dynasty, successive dynasties began to gradually lower the marriage age requirements.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, in order to compete for hegemony, many princes died, and they needed to speed up population growth, increase labor force and military resources, so they adopted a series of early marriage policies.

For example, Duke Huan of Qi stipulated that men should start a family at thirty and women should get married at fifteen.

King Gou Jian of Yue stipulated that if a man does not marry at the age of [-] and a woman does not marry at the age of [-], her parents will be punished.

The Han Dynasty also stipulated that women who were not married after reaching the age of fifteen had to pay five times the tax. They wanted to legally force people to marry early. This also resulted in many parents who did not know how to raise and educate their children, and infant mortality. The phenomenon of increased height.

The Western Jin Dynasty stipulated that if a girl was seventeen years old and her parents did not want her to get married, the local officials would choose a match. In the Northern Qi Dynasty, all unmarried children under the age of twenty and over fourteen years old from miscellaneous households were even recruited to serve.

In the Northern Zhou Dynasty, boys aged fifteen and girls aged thirteen and above were required to marry.

In the early years of the Tang Dynasty, in order to ease social conflicts, the age of marriage was relaxed. It was stipulated that men should marry at twenty and women should marry at fifteen.

By the middle of the Tang Dynasty, it was changed to all marriages for men over fifteen and women over twelve, otherwise the government would intervene.

From then on, from the Song Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, the legal age for marriage was around sixteen for men and fourteen for women.

In the Northern Song Dynasty, the age of marriage generally followed the regulations of the Tang Dynasty, which was recorded in Zhu Xi's "Family Rites".

Ning Zong Jiading of the Southern Song Dynasty issued an order: the age of sixteen for boys and the age of fourteen for girls is the period of marriage.

"The Tongli of the Qing Dynasty" stipulates that officials and common people can not marry until the age of sixteen for men and fourteen for women. In fact, the average age of first marriage for women is eighteen years old, and the average age of first marriage for men is between twenty-one and twenty-four or five years old. between.

Under the oppression of successive rulers, the general public gradually accepted this early marriage policy. According to ancient Chinese etiquette, the age of marriage for men is generally between fifteen and twenty years old, with the majority being sixteen years old; for women, it is generally thirteen years old. Between the ages of [-] and [-], most people are [-] years old. A traditional concept of early marriage and early childbearing has formed.

It was not until modern times that the legal age for marriage began to gradually increase.

The Civil Code of the Republic of China stipulated that men under the age of eighteen and women under the age of sixteen were not allowed to get married.

In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, my country's Marriage Law stipulated that men could not get married until they were twenty years old and women were eighteen years old.

Our marriage law stipulates that the age of marriage must not be earlier than [-] years old for men and [-] years old for women. "

"Oh my God, you can remember so many things in this stupid brain." The little demon was surprised.

"That's right, don't look at who I am. I'm a top student."

Everyone saw that Qian Xiaoxiao didn't reply, and the situation became awkward for a while.

"If it's embarrassing, forget it and just pretend I didn't say anything." The woman smiled awkwardly.

"No, the main reason is that the children are still young. I also advocate that children should not get married until they are over [-] years old. Getting married early is not conducive to the mental growth of the couple. The experiences and minds of both parties are immature. Getting married early means suffering early, and there is no independence after marriage. space, and giving birth too early affects the health of the uterus, causing serious damage to the uterus and increasing the risk of uterine disease. It will also accelerate bone calcification, easily lead to osteoporosis, and even induce a variety of bone diseases. Premature birth of a child is prone to premature birth, miscarriage, and death, which is detrimental to both the child and the mother. This is why I have always advocated that children become biological children only when their bodies are fully grown," Qian Xiaoxiao explained.

"Is that so? But we all come here like this, and we don't think it's anything." A woman said.

"Yes, isn't this how our ancestors came here for generations?"

"Then have you noticed that the fertility rate is very high at the age of fifteen or sixteen, or that after a mother gives birth to a child, she either feels pain here or there, or she hurts her body and only gives birth to that child for the rest of her life." Qian Xiao Xiao asked rhetorically.

Everyone calmed down and thought.

"It seems to be true. I am my eldest daughter who was born at the age of sixteen. As a result, my waist is sore and swollen all day long."

"Speaking of which, it seems that I am the same, but the symptoms are not too severe, so I don't pay much attention to it. I didn't expect you to have it too."

"Also, my mother's cousin's daughter died during childbirth. She had just turned fifteen."

"Oh, what a sin." Everyone expressed regret.

Slowly the topic was brought up.

Qian Xiaoxiao sat aside and looked at everyone.

She couldn't change other people's minds, and she didn't want to.

She will still insist on the new era's demands on her children.

She will not restrain the children under the banner of "for your own good". She believes that although they are still young, they are all people of the new era who know more and have more experience. There are some words that she does not understand. Needless to say, there is nothing to worry about.

Qian Xiaoxiao sat aside and looked at these women in gorgeous clothes and red hair. She seemed to be in a dream, everything seemed so real but unrealistic.

At this moment, her mind was blank, and the voices of the women could no longer be heard.

She thought about what had happened over the past year. If all of this was really a dream, then what caused them to enter this dream?

To this day, the person who may not have fully accepted the fact that they can't go back may be Qian Xiaoxiao.
