Quickly travel through the life history of a young couple

In the capital

Empress Wu has decreed that women regardless of age or status can take the exam. However, the only place where jobs are arranged is in Hangzhou. Therefore, many unmarried women’s families do not want them to take the exam. If they only take the exam, It's more like taking the exam and staying with the queen for a while to get married.But if you really want to take up a position, many aristocratic families will not be happy.

Empress Wu didn't care whether they were happy or not. Anyway, as soon as this decree came out, many women in the capital were attracted by it.Especially for some aunts who are widowed or separated from home. After hearing the news, some people want to work hard for themselves. Some of them have a child, no man or a woman who has a female household. In addition to planning for themselves, they also have to plan for their children.Therefore, when signing up for the first time, there were very few unmarried women, and most of them were already married, or women who had established female households.

Empress Wu now accepts all comers, even women from civilian families, as long as they are willing to take the exam.Moreover, what Empress Wu did not say was that she also planned to select a few women to train around her for a period of time, so that when the time comes to build another factory, they can be arranged directly.

Well, there is only one opportunity. If you want to pass this kind of exam for promotion in the future, it will definitely not be as smooth as the first time. It depends on whether these people can seize the opportunity.

Naturally, there are those ambitious women who want to seize this opportunity.

Wu Yue'er was one of them. She saw this notice when she was at the gate of the city. She didn't believe it at the time, so she ran to look elsewhere and still found it.Then quietly, he went to find a familiar policeman and happened to ask him if he was on patrol.Wu Yue'er returned home with worries.

Wu Yue'er was originally a small village girl in a town near the capital. Her family was a typical patriarchal family. Wu Yue'er's mother worked hard to give birth to a boy for the Wu family.

In the end, the three sisters above Wu Yue'er sold people and gave them away.At that time, I thought Wu Yue'er was a boy, but everyone changed after birth. Grandma Wu even wanted to throw her granddaughter to death. In the end, she was stopped by her second sister who had not yet been sold. The second sister begged her grandma not to throw her sister away. Falling to death, if she can save her sister's life, she can sell herself to the Wu family in exchange for some money.

When Wu Yue'er was a little older, her second sister was sold away by her grandmother, and her third sister was also given away. At that time, Wu Yue'er didn't understand why her sister left home.Until she saw that her next sister was drowned directly, Wu Yue'er hugged her little self and fainted from fright.After waking up, I scolded myself, why didn't I be brave like my second sister and protect my younger sister?

She could only use her young body to take care of the mother who had just given birth. At that time, Mother Wu was crying every day. Why could she not give birth to a boy?

Wu Yue'er's father is a typical male chauvinist. He is submissive in front of others and domineering in front of his wife and daughter. When he went down the mountain, he accidentally fell into someone else's trap and was already dead when he was discovered.At that time, Wu Yue'er's mother was pregnant with another child.

Grandma Wu tried her best to see if the baby was a boy so that she could leave a legacy for her third son.

Who knew that it was difficult to give birth to her, and her mother died of excessive blood loss, but the child she gave birth to was still a daughter.Grandma Wu just didn't care. She didn't care about the granddaughter who was born. She didn't even care about her dead daughter-in-law. She just left it in the house and only notified the daughter-in-law's family to come and collect the body. After all, this prodigal daughter-in-law didn't care until she died. The Wu family gave birth to a boy.

Uncle Wu Yue'er's family just collected her sister's body hastily, leaving the two girls, one eight years old and one newborn, and they didn't want to take care of them.At this time, Wu Yue'er's three sisters came to take care of it, especially Wu Yue'er's second sister, who was sold to a scholar's family. She knew that she could set up a female household for her sisters.After gaining some experience, under the coercion and inducement of the three sisters, the Wu family agreed to release her, but the prerequisite was to cut off relations with these girls, and not let them worry about anything in the future, and Wu Yuer'er was quite similar to her sister. Leave home in purification.

Only the eldest sister was still a little sad, but the remaining sisters didn't have any special feelings for the Wu family. They signed the document directly in front of the village chief and the village chief, and with the help of the second sister I set up a female household for these two sisters.

The other two sisters could not provide much help. After all, one was married young and the other was sent to someone else's house to be a child bride.The two of them also secretly saved some private money and gave it to the second child, hoping that she could take good care of the two sisters.

The second sister quickly thought and set up household registration documents for her two younger sisters as orphans. However, the two children were too young, so she found a mother-in-law and accepted her as her godmother, promising to give her to her in the future. The prerequisite for the mother-in-law to support her until her death is to help her raise her younger sister. She only needs to raise one, and she will take care of the money she spends on her.This Mrs. Li is a woman who lives alone with poor eyesight. Her son and grandson both died on the battlefield, and her eyes were blinded by crying.

The second sister knew that the mother-in-law was a very nice person and would not treat her sister harshly, and that the mother-in-law's home was also very close to the family where she worked.Mrs. Li thought for a while and realized that the oldest child was already eight years old. As long as she took good care of the youngest child and raised her to five or six years old, she would be able to survive.

In this way, she still had someone who could provide for her in her old age and provide her with her own money without worrying about it, so Mrs. Li agreed. Under the witness of others, the 14-year-old second sister recognized Mrs. Li as her godmother and would give her to her in the future. She retired to her old age.Wu Yuer'er and her sister also lived in Granny Li's house. Although they were female households, Granny Li only needed to go there every day to help take care of their two children.

Wu Yue'er has always felt that she is lucky. After all, she has the care of her sister and the care of Granny Li.She always remembered that her sister had said before that she had caught up with a good time.It was the time when she established a female household ten years ago, when the establishment of Daliang was just stable. Empress Wu set up the policy of female household regardless of the opposition of others, and the second sister Wu also heard this when her mistress was talking leisurely. , and kept this matter in mind.

It was also with this opportunity that Wu Yuer'er and her sister became the first women to set up a female household. At that time, in order to encourage the establishment of a female household, the court rewarded them with five taels of silver. The five taels of silver also became the capital of Wu Yuer's and the others' lives at the beginning. .Wu Yue'er has always kept this in mind, and she is very grateful to the Queen for her mercy.Knowing that she could take the female officer exam, she wanted to seize this opportunity. If she could meet the Queen, she would definitely thank her in person for her kindness.

In the past ten years, my sister has grown up, but Mrs. Li has grown old. Two years ago, the second sister also provided for Mrs. Li until she died. She is very grateful to Mrs. Li for helping her raise her sister. Therefore, the second sister Wu also took care of everything after Mrs. Li's death.

Mrs. Li promised to leave the two rooms she lived in to the Wu sisters. Although they were not big, they still had a place to rest. After taking care of them for so many years, she also loved these sisters very much and could not bear to have them after her death. Wandering again.

Second Sister Wu is still working for others. Although she is older now, she still does not plan to get married. She is afraid that she will repeat her mother's experience and give birth to sons over and over again.
