Chapter 488 The family has a throne to inherit (13)

Cai Si'en was blocked or boycotted by the villagers of Jinsuo Village when he was asked to do village work.

"No, no, Dali Niang is an ignorant woman, how can she be the village chief."

"Since ancient times, no woman has been the village chief. It is right for men to take charge of outside affairs and women to take charge of housework."

Zihua stood on the stone platform in front of the village and looked at the enthusiastic villagers.

When she announced to the villagers that the village would no longer belong to the Du family and would be under her jurisdiction, most of the villagers smiled with joy. Some of them did not dare to say anything if they had different ideas in their hearts, and acquiesced to her announcement.

When she mentioned several measures such as restoring the name of Jinsuo Village, returning to the application system for the land occupied by the Du family, and reestablishing compulsory schools, the villagers clapped their hands and praised her, and some even knelt down and kowtowed to her. , saying thank you for her great kindness.

But when she appointed Cai Si'en as the village head, the villagers who were grateful to her a moment ago eagerly stopped her.

Fortunately, only a small part of the villagers spoke out against it. If all or most of the villagers had this perception, she would have to consider other options.

The Luo family members who started to block and blocked Cai Sien most vigorously were her father-in-law, mother-in-law, and husband, who all strongly opposed it.

"Ms. Cai can only do household chores such as washing and cooking. How can she manage a village?"

"My mother has to take great care of her at home and outside, so she doesn't have any time."

"Ms. Cai has never written a single word in all the years she married into the Luo family. She doesn't have the ability. Ms. Cai, tell me yourself, am I right?"

Cai Si'en's lips trembled slightly, angry.

They are all a family, and she knows that her parents-in-law, mother-in-law, husband, and the others, because His Highness is here and because His Highness called her by name, speak politely now. If they were at home, they would degrade her even more.

If she dares to talk back, she will be belittled even more, and may even be beaten, punished with work, and deprived of food.

At that time, she wanted to teach her daughter the martial arts of killing bandits, and being punished and beaten was nothing. But the Luo family said they dared to teach her, so they sent their daughter to her grandpa's house to raise her, so as not to be led astray by her.

Her children were her weakness, and she could only compromise.

"Mom..." Luo Dali held Cai Sien's arm. He stood between Cai Si'en and the Luo family, making himself a buffer zone.

He was in favor of his mother being the village chief.

He had followed his mother in literacy since he was a child and knew that her mother knew a lot.

Moreover, it is a great blessing for the Luo family that my mother becomes the village chief. It can bring benefits to the Luo family that no one else can even think of, and they are long-term benefits. Why can't my father, grandparents, and others understand this?

But he didn't dare to oppose his grandfather and the others face to face.

Zi Hua only asked Cai Si'en, "Cai Si'en, how did you decide whether you would like to be the village chief or not?"

"I..." Cai Si'en's heart skipped a beat, "I am willing, Your Highness."

She has lived for more than forty years, living for this and that. She has only lived for herself and for her mother. She wants to live for herself and realize her mother's wish.

"Very good." Zi Hua didn't look away.

She didn't have to make Cai Si'en the village chief, but the village chief had to be a woman.

If you want Daxia Dynasty to enter an era of equality without gender distinction, what you need to do now is to make corrections.

One of the mistakes Emperor Zhu Kou made in her early years was that she did not make corrections, but hired people based on their ability.

In the late Xia Dynasty, it was difficult for women to receive education, so most of Emperor Zhu Kou's subordinates were men, and the Tianyou Army was also dominated by men.

Later, because she was a woman and proclaimed the emperor, a split occurred within the Tianyou Army, and Emperor Zhu Kou realized her mistake.

The Great Xia Dynasty she established was still basically male-dominated, and it was not a dynasty where men and women were equal like the Pan Yao Federation that entered the interstellar era, as she wanted to achieve.

Since then, she has been committed to promoting various measures for gender equality, but the fundamentals have been set, and one move affects the whole body. Many of her measures have encountered considerable resistance, and even boycotts.

Emperor Zukou used very tough tactics, sending the Black Armored Army to various places to intimidate, so that women must also attend compulsory schools and other edicts that were beneficial to women were implemented.

In fact, the measures implemented by Emperor Zhu Kou were all beneficial to both men and women, without any favoritism.

But for men who still control the basic base, equality and no favoritism means harming their interests, so they will strongly oppose it.

Once Emperor Zhu Kou died, the measures she had enforced were abolished or tampered with in one place at an extremely fast speed.

Weihua does not want to follow the old path of killing the Kou Emperor. What he wants to do is to turn the tables and build a new basic market.

At this time, what is needed is to overcorrect a little to hedge against the original fundamentals.

Jinsuo Village is the starting point for her to build a new basic base, an important step in defining the basic base, so the village chief must be a woman.

Not only the village chief, the Silver Armor Army she will form will also be dominated by women.

Zi Hua swept away all the villagers and said, "You say Cai Si'en can't do it. Who of you can do it? Stand up for yourself. Cai Si'en can read and write, and can count and keep accounts. In addition, you can farm, weave and make clothes." She can also embroider.

Regardless of whether you are a man or a woman, if you think that Cai Si'en can do it, and that you are better than Cai Si'en, if you come forward and recommend yourself, as long as you prove that you are stronger than Cai Si'en, the village chief will be yours. "

She dared to say this without worrying that someone would stand up and cut her off. There are two scholars in Jinsuo Village who can read and do simple arithmetic, but they specialize in studying and cannot weave, make clothes, or embroider. It is difficult for them to farm.

As she expected, no one came forward.

Zi Hua snorted coldly, "Since ancient times, there has never been a woman as a village chief? Which ancient times are you talking about?"

Since ancient times, during the time of the Emperor Kou, there have been many women serving as officials. Nowadays, there are still female officials and female military generals in the court. There is more than one female official in Zhujiang Prefecture where Jinsuo Village is located.

Do you think a woman cannot be a village chief? According to your theory, that woman can no longer be the emperor. If you say such treasonous words under the empress’ rule, do you want to rebel?

Since ancient times, the former Xia Dynasty had no daughters as village chiefs. In the Xia Dynasty more than a hundred years ago, the Kun people slaughtered the whole country and nearly wiped out the entire clan. Which of your ancestors did not have a relative die at the sword of the Kun people army?

It was the ignorant woman in your mouth, Emperor Zhu Kou, who drove away the Kun army and avenged you.

Now you don't remember the kindness of the Great Xia Dynasty, but you remember the past of the previous Xia Dynasty. Do you want to cause rebellion against the current dynasty? "

Once Zi Hua's aura was turned on, none of the villagers could resist it, and what Zi Hua said was reasonable. Those villagers who had been talking plausibly just now shrank into quails.

Those who were timid fell to their knees with a plop.

The Luo family were the first to kneel.

"Your Highness, no, we do not miss the former Xia Dynasty."

"Your Highness is aware that we will never dare to rebel."
