Lu Changqing came to the town according to the simple map given by the system, and asked someone at random on the street and found out where Mr. Fu's house was.

It is said that Mr. Fu was a good character in the original version. At the end of the story, Dong Yong, who had a child, married the daughter of the Fu family.

Now that he has lost his fairy-like wife, a wealthy wife will be sent to him immediately. Now he will no longer have to worry about food and clothing. Even Sima Xiangru, who lives off his wife, has to call Dong his ancestor.

In the later version 2.0, Mr. Fu turned into an evil landlord who made things difficult for honest people. Now he can no longer eat the soft rice from the Fu family. But it doesn’t matter. If he can’t eat the soft rice from the Fu family, he can still eat the soft rice from fairies.

In order to express their resistance to feudal ethics and their pursuit of free marriage, the seven fairies who were ordered to descend to the mortal world became love-brained women who were eager to get married.

Oh my god! Is it possible that a god who has lived for thousands of years and has seen all kinds of men would be interested in a mortal man like you?

Of course, this is just Lu Changqing’s inner complaint. The Seven Fairies after the magical transformation don’t think so.

In the plot, she fell in love with Dong Yong at first sight as if she was possessed by an evil spirit. She secretly came down to earth and proposed to Dong Yong. In order to show Dong Yong's upright character, he resolutely rejected the request of the Seven Fairies.

"You and I have never met before. Without the permission of our parents or the words of a matchmaker, how can we get married in secret?"

Upon seeing this, the Seven Fairies asked the old locust tree to act as a matchmaker for them and asked the God of Land to officiate their wedding, and eventually the marriage took place.

Lu Changqing looked at Dong Yong, who was kneeling on the ground selling himself to bury his father, and complained to the system: "What an innocent Dong Yong! He clearly didn't want to be a gigolo, but the Seventh Princess insisted on forcing him into her mouth. Look how wronged he was."

These men have mastered the trick of taking advantage of others and acting cute. In their hearts, they wish that the woman would give herself to them for free, but they refuse with high-sounding words, so that when someone brings it up later, they have reasons to refute it.

"Look, I didn't force her to marry me. She insisted on marrying me. And she's a deity. How could a mortal like me dare to reject her?"

Lu Changqing would like to give a thumbs up to those who changed the plot in later generations. The plot change was really brilliant!

The system said helplessly: "There is nothing we can do about this. In a patriarchal society, stories written by men are of course based on male-centered thinking, so they naturally give priority to glorifying men."

Lu Changqing nodded. What the system said was indeed correct. Not to mention mythological stories, even in historical records, there were many cases of men wearing women's hats and women carrying men's pots in order to glorify men.

Dong Yong knelt on the ground with the scorching sun above his head. He had been kneeling on the street for two days and it was already the third day. His father's body had begun to stink. If no one hired him to work, his neighbors would probably be dissatisfied if he waited any longer.

Just when Dong Yong was worried, a pair of cloth shoes appeared in front of him. Looking up from the shoes, Dong Yong was shocked.

The man had a face as round as a disk and as black as charcoal. His bean-sized eyeballs moved around in his eye sockets as small as a needle. His shifty eyes revealed a mercenary shrewdness.

Dong Yong swallowed, looked up at the elderly woman in front of him, and asked cautiously, "Auntie, what can I do for you?"

Lu Changqing narrowed his eyes and looked Dong Yong up and down and said, "The young man's figure looks curvy and charming. It's good-looking, but I don't know if it's durable enough."

As he spoke, he strode forward and grabbed Dong Yong's chin, forcing him to open his mouth. He ignored Dong Yong's struggle and continued, "Your teeth look good, and your butt doesn't look small either. If you take good care of it, you should be able to give birth to a big fat son."

Lu Changqing let go of Dong Yong's chin. Dong Yong covered his aching chin and shouted at Lu Changqing angrily, "Auntie, what do you mean by this?"

Lu Changqing licked his lips, pointed at the straw mark on Dong Yong's head and said lewdly: "Young man, aren't you going to sell yourself? My family just happens to be in need of a man, why don't you go with me? I have plenty of money!"

Dong Yong shuddered in disgust at the sight of Lu Changqing drooling over him, "Auntie, you misunderstood me. I am planning to sell myself as a farmhand, not to be someone's son-in-law."

Lu Changqing said, "Ouch!" "Why are you so stupid, young man? Isn't it better to come to my house and eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks than to work like a slave for others?"

As soon as Dong Yong looked up, he saw the other person staring at him with her upturned nose. He turned his eyes away without leaving a trace and refused, "Thank you for your kindness, madam, but I have no plans to get married for the time being."

As soon as Dong Yong said no, a big and thick palm appeared in front of him, with two golden ingots shining brightly on the palm.

Lu Changqing weighed the two gold ingots in his hand and raised his eyebrows at Dong Yong. "As long as you follow me, these gold ingots will be yours."

Dong Yong's lips trembled as he looked at the two gold ingots. He would be lying if he didn't feel excited. With these two gold ingots, not only could he give his father a grand funeral, but he could also use the remaining money to buy a few acres of farmland.

But he couldn't leave with the woman in front of him who could be his mother!

Moreover, he is a son-in-law who lives with the wife's family. If his children all take the woman's surname in the future, then wouldn't his Dong family be extinct?

Dong Yong reluctantly rejected Lu Changqing, "Thank you for your kindness, ma'am, but I just want to sell myself to work."

Lu Changqing held the two gold ingots in his hands and turned them over like a plate of walnuts. He cut them and said, "I heard about your deeds of selling yourself to bury your father in the next town, so I thought of coming to see you. Now I see that you are not as kind and filial as the rumors say."

Passers-by around stopped to watch the excitement. Dong Yong was looked at with curiosity and his face turned red. "Why do you say that to me?"

"As far as I know, your father has been dead for more than two days. This is already the third day. Apart from me asking for the price, who else wants to buy you? Now that I am a great philanthropist who is willing to pay for you, why are you making all kinds of excuses and not wanting to go with me? Do you think your father's body is not smelly enough? Do you plan to leave it in the house to dry and make bacon?"

Lu Changqing's words made Dong Yong so anxious that he was fuming. However, he was tongue-tied and didn't know how to refute. He could only shout: "You are talking nonsense! I am not such an unfilial person!"

"Then why don't you want to take my money and go with me? These are two gold ingots!" Lu Changqing said as he spread out his hands and showed the two golden ingots to the crowd. There were bursts of gasps from all around.

"Oh, this is gold! I have never seen two gold ingots this big in my life!"

"She is so generous, maybe she is the housekeeper of a government official's family in the prefecture?"

"How could Dong Yong have such good luck? He looks so frail that he can't even carry anything, how could he be sold for so much money? Seeing this makes me want to stick a straw tag on my head and sell myself off."

"That's right, I don't know what this lady likes about him."

"Selling oneself to bury one's father is filial piety."

"Tsk, he sold himself to bury his father? He was filial? Didn't the girl from Tian Laoer's family in Tianjiawan sell herself to the landlord Fang's family a few days ago in order to bury her father? Why didn't you praise her for being filial?"

"He is a son, and the girl from the Tian family is a daughter. How can they be compared?"

"Bah! Why can't we compare? A daughter is not born by her parents?"

"That is to say, the girl from the Tian family sold herself for two strings of silver coins, and Dong Yong was unwilling to go with this lady even with two ingots of gold. Perhaps he thought the money she gave was too little?"

"Two gold ingots are not enough? Does he think he is Pan An?"

……

Dong Yong heard the constant chatter of people around him. The more they talked, the more unpleasant it became. The more he listened, the angrier he became. He was so angry that he staggered to his feet and shouted to the crowd watching the excitement, "What do you know? She bought me so that I could be her son-in-law!"
