The Pumi people attach great importance to the education of children.The education for young children includes labor education, customary law education and moral education, etc. This is simply at the forefront of the times!At present, the education of young children in most kindergartens of Blue Star also includes these three aspects, but these are not as good as precepts and deeds.

"In addition, regarding the marriage situation of the Pumi people, the anchor will add a few points. The marriage of the Pumi people is mainly monogamous. In ancient times, the Pumi people chose their spouses by their parents, and it was popular to give priority to marriage with uncles and cousins. The age of marriage was earlier, Women were married at 15 years old and men at 18 years old, or married after the adult ceremony at 13 years old. This age of marriage is relatively normal, and most of the marriageable ages of many ethnic groups in ancient times were also in this age group.”

"Pumi intermarriage has the custom of continuing to marry for three generations, which is called 'three generations of relatives'. Isn't this a typical Han nationality's 'kissing and kissing', and it is even more terrifying than the marriage of brothers and sisters in ancient Egypt. According to the anchor, some ethnic minorities once practiced intra-ethnic marriage because they pursued the purity of blood too much, resulting in many newborns in the ethnic group being mentally retarded, and some ethnic minorities even disappeared in the long river of history."

Su Jiu sometimes felt that human beings were really strange creatures. When breeding horses, people knew that they should not be too closely related to mate. How come they didn't know it when they got here?

"Okay, let's get over this topic. Pumi people also have a very interesting custom. After a grand wedding, the bride will start a life of 'not leaving her husband's house'. In some places, Pumi brides often have to wait until after pregnancy. It can be seen that although Pumi women get engaged and get married earlier, they often come to their husband’s house very late, generally after 25 years old, and a few do not sit at home until they are 30 or 40 years old. During this period , the man has to marry the bride four times and hold four wedding ceremonies. According to the old custom, the girl has to turn around at least three times after marriage and try to escape back to her natal home. Disgraceful thing."

Su Jiu thought that she had simply married Gu Ye at the beginning, and always felt that she was at a loss, but when she thought of the Pumi people's back-and-forth tossing back and forth, she felt that it was pretty good now: "It's really a toss! But now many Pumi people no longer follow this custom. In fact, the anchor feels that it is really unnecessary. You must know that in ancient times, the average life expectancy was less than five or sixty years old. As a result, the bride stayed in her natal family until she was in her thirties. After all, this bride is considered married Still not married?"

"The Pumi people in some areas still retain the ancient custom of 'snatching marriages'. When the agreed wedding date comes, the woman will hide the bride in his home, and the woman's relatives and friends will prepare to rob the man's relatives. When the relatives arrive, the women flock On the other hand, he snatched all the gifts he was carrying, and the man could not resist, and redeemed the gifts with tea afterwards. On the day of marriage, the woman's parents still asked her to go out to work without notifying the bride in advance, and the man sent someone to force her Take them home." Su Jiu talked about the custom of snatching marriages in a very cheerful manner, after all, it is not a real "snatching" marriage, but a unique marriage custom, so it should be lively and lively.

"In ancient times, the Pumi people could not divorce after marriage. If the husband died, the woman generally transferred the house to her brother-in-law by the husband's family. If there is no one to transfer the house to, it will be passed on within the family. If there is no one in the family, it will be decided by the husband's family. After leaving their children, they will marry outsiders, and the bride price will be accepted by the in-laws. This was not the case in Mongolia a long time ago, and there was even a custom of husband's death and son succession. This phenomenon was very common in the Yuan Dynasty. However, Z country no longer exists This kind of bad habit, advocates the freedom of marriage, after widowed women can completely decide who to remarry."

"Referring to these bad habits, the anchor thought of a product of feudal society's oppression of women - chastity archway. "Chastity archway" is usually used in ancient times to commend some dead husbands or not remarrying for a long time, or suicide and burial. The archway building was built for women who conformed to the moral requirements of the time and passed on extraordinary deeds."

"In fact, the earliest chaste archways were mostly based on the word "jie", and they were mostly built in the name of ancient scholars to praise their mother's upbringing; but at the end of the ancient feudal society, the style of Neo Confucianism flourished, and the chastity archway gradually used the word "zhen". It has become another mountain that oppresses women. At first, women were widowed voluntarily after the death of their husbands, and there were occasional people who died in love. The number of archways is proof of his political achievements, and countless women were forced to be widows or even starved to death during the period.”

"The chastity archways are actually forged by the blood and tears of poor and fresh women. In fact, not all emperors in the past dynasties respected the chastity archways, and some emperors even encouraged widows to remarry. There are pedantic moralists who come out to stop it, and even the emperor can't do whatever he wants at this time."

When Kangxi heard the anchor's words, he nodded secretly in his heart. Indeed, as an emperor, sometimes he can't help himself.He had long intended to completely abolish the chastity archway, but unfortunately, those old stubborn people didn't make sense at all. Even now, there are still many local officials handing him a booklet, wanting to win the chastity archway for the local family.

Kangxi could not completely eliminate this situation, so he could only approve as few as possible. Unexpectedly, because of the fewer approvals, the chastity archway was even more respected.

Seeing the anchor constantly dissing relevant officials, Kangxi couldn't wait to applaud, and directly blew up ten "bright fireworks" in the live broadcast room to show his support for the anchor.

Now Kangxi's attitude towards the chastity archway should not be too obvious. The people in all parts of the Qing Dynasty were quite surprised. Their emperor did not approve of the existence of the chastity archway. What's going on?
Su Jiu raised his eyebrows and glanced at the bright fireworks, thinking that Kangxi is worthy of the emperor's scheming, and this time it will be much smoother to cancel the chastity archway, but Su Jiu doesn't care that he is being used, after all, this is for the whole society It's a good thing.

Kangxi has hated the chastity archway for a long time, and this opportunity was hard-won, so he naturally made an imperial decree to abolish the chastity archway while the iron was hot.Of course, this move was still criticized, but with the example of the unbelieving and evil Lord Wang who blocked the "abolition of the bad custom of foot binding", no minister dared to blatantly oppose it. After all, the anchor very much supported the emperor's decision.

"Of course, excellent women are worthy of praise. For example, Ba Widow Qing is the earliest female businessman in China. With her personal intelligence and wisdom, she painstakingly managed the cinnabar industry and established a huge cinnabar empire. It is worth mentioning that Ba Widow Qing received "One emperor through the ages" Qin Shihuang rewarded him with extraordinary courtesy, and built a "Nvhuai Qingtai" specially for him, which can be said to be unprecedented."

Speaking of this, Su Jiu also has to lament that a group of male chauvinists have done a lot of harm, and the meaning of the "Chastity Archway" that was originally a good thing has also been distorted.
