Chapter 264 Why Don’t You Die With Me?
Although there is no head tax and no official media here, if you really let your children get married after they are 20 years old, you will probably be ridiculed.
Many people shook their heads, looking disapproving.
"What's the matter with being a maiden? Taohua Village has said that this is what the young master wants to say. He says that this is the most, oh, the most scientific age to be pregnant."
"What the young master said? Is it true?"
"Of course it's true. Who would dare to spread the young master's words?" Those people in Taohua Village can teach you how to write typos.
"If that's the case, there must be some truth to it. The young master has never made a wrong decision."
As soon as they heard that it was Bai Tao's idea, some women started to grumble, "I don't want my daughter to get married and have children at the age of fifteen or sixteen. If things go wrong, she might even die!"
The scene of giving birth and escaping death was still vivid in her mind. She didn't want the child she had given birth to with great effort to suffer or even lose his life.
"That's right. You're not in a hurry to die, so why get married so early? This isn't the only thing you can do in life."
"Is this really the news from Taohua Village?" Some people couldn't help but question it. After all, twenty years old has been considered an old girl since ancient times.
"Absolutely true!"
"The rule states that women should be 20 years old, and men should be 21 years old at the earliest. This means that men mature later, so it is appropriate for them to be one or two years later than women."
"But 20 is too late. What will happen if my daughter doesn't have a suitable husband by then?"
"That's up to you. No one is forcing you to follow it. Taohua Village follows this rule anyway."
At this time, someone nearby suddenly said, "Think about it carefully. In Taohua Village, it's not just the women who get married late, the men get married late too. Are you still worried about not having a good husband?"
The implication is that it is late for both men and women, and the people in Taohua Village are well-off. If they can marry into the in-laws' family, not to mention getting married at 20, getting married at 25 is not impossible.
When these words were spoken, many people, especially those with girls in their families, had something flashing in their eyes.
Someone else laughed and said, "Everyone knows that the Baijiabao caravan is from Taohua Village. With such good conditions in Taohua Village, how could they look down on ordinary families?"
"That is to say, I am afraid that the thresholds of families with girls and boys of marriageable age will be trampled by matchmakers."
"Not only that, but I heard that the rules of Taohua Village are very strict and not something that ordinary people can follow."
"Then I am willing to do so. What's the big deal about the rules? Just follow them. As long as life is good, that's fine. It sounds like you don't have to follow the rules no matter which family you marry into."
"That's different. Ordinary families don't have as many rules as Taohua Village."
"Why do you think so much? People in Taohua Village may not marry outsiders. It's useless to think too much."
"Hey, let's chat."
"That's right, that's right. It won't hurt to chat."
What if.
Miss Bai always has smiling eyes and doesn't look so unkind. If there is really someone in Taohua Village who likes someone from outside, can she still break up the couple?
People were talking about Taohua Village's regulations.
The news quickly spread throughout Junji Town.
Many people immediately started talking about it as a joke.
"Hahaha, twenty years old? You can't find a good family after you turn seventeen, let alone twenty years old."
Bai Dadan was delivering wine to Qianlixiang Wine Shop. When he heard this, he stopped and shouted at the man, "Why are you in such a hurry? Is it because your ancestral grave is empty and you are in a hurry to fill the space?"
The people around him didn't understand at first, but they figured it out after two or three seconds. Is this saying that you are so anxious? ! "You!"
"It's weird. No one has eaten a grain of your rice or drank a drop of your water. Why are you worrying so much?"
"What's wrong? Am I wrong? Twenty years old is already an old girl, who would want her?"
Bai Dafen, who was with Bai Dadan, also responded, saying bluntly, "Every year, there are people who don't live past the age of fifteen. Why don't you follow them and die?"
"Hey, you, how can you talk like that? Who are you? I'm just talking to you, what does it have to do with you?"
Bai Dadan patted the peach blossom logo on the cart and smiled: "We are from Taohua Village. Do you think it has anything to do with us?"
The furious man was stunned when he heard this. He looked at the peach blossom logo on the cart, opened his mouth and closed it again.
Being caught talking about people in the street is embarrassing in itself. If you are thick-skinned, it wouldn't be a big deal. But the key is that the people in Taohua Village are not easy to deal with. They will start fighting if you don't agree with them.
Once a fight occurs, the least severe injury is bruises on the face and nose, but more often than not, there are broken limbs.
"I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'm not the only one who said this, everyone said this."
"If someone eats shit and shouts 'It smells good', do you want to follow suit?!"
"Hey, you, you, how can you speak like that, it's so vulgar!"
"Hmph, you guys are just long-haired and short-sighted. I'm too lazy to talk to you." With that, the man flicked his sleeves and walked away angrily.
Bai Dadan and Bai Dafen looked at each other and sneered, "Impotent rage." Then they continued to deliver wine to the wine shop.
The two of them felt proud in their hearts. What their aunt said was right. With their strength, these people knew they couldn't afford to offend them and would stay away from them.
This topic has been hotly discussed for several days, and some people would subconsciously ask this question when they go to buy things in Baijiabao’s stores.
After getting a positive response, I would curiously ask: "Do you all agree?"
The people in Taohua Village asked curiously, "Why don't you agree?"
"What our aunt said makes a lot of sense."
"There are so many things you can do in life, why should you be confined to the backyard so early?"
They all wanted to see what the means of transportation that my aunt said could travel more than a thousand kilometers in two hours looked like.
I also want to see what the TV that my aunt mentioned, which can shrink people and put them in a box to watch stories, looks like.
Also, we can generate electricity by using water and wind, and electricity can do a lot of things.
And... my aunt talked about a lot of novel and magical objects that everyone had never heard of or seen before.
The people of Taohua Village never questioned what Bai Tao described. The villagers were full of curiosity and expectation.
As my aunt said, these all require everyone to work hard and achieve them step by step.
Seeing these people's disapproving expressions, the people of Taohua Village just smiled politely but sighed in their hearts. These people had never even seen an excavator and didn't know how to drive one.
It's no wonder that they are so ignorant that they keep worrying about this matter.
As my auntie said, we should respect the various things in this world, and stupidity is one of them.
After this incident, the people in Taohua Village were more eager to learn more knowledge and culture.
No one wants to be a frog in a well, and no one wants to be laughed at one day because of lack of knowledge.
Come on, come on~~~
