The Qin Dynasty started a big discussion. The focus of the discussion was whether there was a need for clans and gentry to exist.

In fact, before this big discussion, Qin Lu was already doing these things quietly.

Qin Law advocated breaking up the clans and making the family atomized, and the smaller the better.

Of course, the purpose of Qin Law is not to be fair and just, so that the people can get rid of the oppression of the clan.

Its original purpose was to facilitate taxation and control the Guizhou Heads.

It was just that he accidentally reflected this process.

With a Qin law, it is impossible to completely break up the clan.

Those aristocratic families and families stubbornly disobey the court and fight against each other internally.

In some economically underdeveloped villages, especially in villages with the same surname.

A village is a family. The patriarch of the family is like a local emperor.

When there are people fighting within, they will not report to the officials or the court, but will resolve the issue in the ancestral hall.

It is decided by the elderly who have status in the clan and use various lynchings.

People with wealthy families and relatively powerful families in the clan will become patriarchs.

The patriarch held the power of life and death and became the local emperor in this village.

Anyone who sees him will nod and bow.

When the village had a dispute with the outside world, the local emperor would lead the villagers to fight in all directions.

It's really majestic.

Even, they will shelter criminals.

When the people in the village commit crimes, the whole village will help cover up.

People from the court often encounter obstacles when they enter the village to arrest people.

There were even cases where people from the court were beaten and injured.

These clans dare to be so arrogant. First of all, it is because the sky is high and the emperor is far away. No matter how excessive the trouble is, it is likely that it will not be passed to the court's ears.

Secondly... it is because some people in the clan have become officials in the court. The education they received since childhood is to put the clan first.

Therefore, when the clan had a conflict with the court, their first reaction was to protect their relatives.

There are many people who are promising their own interests and abuse of power.

Therefore, once this big discussion appeared, it attracted the attention of many people.

Some people support suppressing clans and gentry, while others protect clans and gentry.

Most of the supporters are poor, while most of the defenders are rich.

This is also very simple. The rich have a great say in the clan. It can even be said that they rely on the clan and rely on the brothers and sisters in the clan to achieve wealth.

The poor have had enough of this. In the past, they dared not speak out. Now, with the excuse of the banished immortal, they finally want to say what they say.

They all started publishing articles in newspapers. But...the rich people quickly gained the upper hand.

Because the rich have read and read since childhood, they have good cultural literacy.

As for those poor people, it would be nice to be able to barely understand the newspaper. It was difficult to make words and sentences, and it was even more difficult to write logical and smooth sentences.

So, they are easily refuted by the rich and don’t know how to fight back.

It can be said that from the beginning, the poor were beaten up.

If Li Shui hadn't helped secretly, this debate would have been a result.

…………

When the debate in Xianyang City was in full swing, something happened in a small village in Guanzhong.

This small village is not far from Xianyang City, but because it is in the deep mountains, it often takes several days to walk those mountain roads. Therefore, it seems that it is not affected and still remains the same as it was thousands of years ago.

The small mountain village is called Gumai Village.

On the road leading to Gumai Village, a woman was walking uneasy.

This woman's name is Sheep's Tail.

The name Sheep Tail has just been named.

The original girl didn’t have any serious names? She was just called Erya casually.

This time, she specially changed her name to Sheep Tail because she wanted to go to the city to work.

I don’t know where I heard it. It is said that many women in Xianyang City are weaver girls.

Weave the wool into threads and make the threads into clothes.

Such a female worker is just a little hardworking and earns a lot. She has a good status in the city, which is very different from being at home.

Sheep tail wanted to be hired by itself, so she gave her a special name.

It sounds like she has a lot to do with wool and is easily hired.

This is the cunning little wisdom of the lower class.

Yangwei was going to work in the city, but his father disagreed.

Because there were such examples in the village.

The woman in the village went to the city to work and made some money. When she returned home during the Chinese New Year, her husband drank a little wine and hit her a few times. Who knew that the woman would leave and would never come back.

The husband was so angry that he took the man from his family to the city and caught the woman back.

Who knew that the woman was waiting for an opportunity to escape again.

After she escaped, she did not find a place to hide, but went to the Women's Federation.

There was a group of women who sincerely invited him.

When my husband went to ask for someone, several women with loud voices came out, and scolded the husband's family to the point of being squirted.

The husband was furious and couldn't help but hit someone again.

I thought it was not a big deal, but who knew that the Women's Federation was annoyed and sent out a lot of people to arrest her husband, but also sue her government.

Only then did the husband realize that this women's federation could never afford to offend. This was founded by Princess Weiyang, and she was in the sky.

The husband was scared, so he apologized repeatedly and gave him generous gifts.

People saw that he had a good attitude, so they didn't go into it.

However, the woman was determined to divorce her husband and would never live together again.

This husband came back in shame and became a laughing stock for the whole village.

Of course, while the whole village was laughing at him, they were also more vigilant about going to the city to work.

A woman who enters the city is still a woman?

What are their minds?

What's wrong with your own man hitting him twice? Not here either?

Do you also need to ask outsiders for help and let outsiders put their men in prison?

When a woman enters the city, she learns bad things.

This is the consensus of the whole village.

So, when Yangwei proposed to go to the city to work, her father flatly refused.

He said to Yangwei: "You have been destined for the rest of your life. Get your husband well, bring your dowry back, and then use the dowry to marry your brother with a wife."

Sheep Tail was a little unwilling to give up, and she said to her father: "Does I have to do this kind of thing in my life? I also hope to live the life I like like those people in the city."

The father said, "Don't just be foolish."

Sheep Tail gritted her teeth and said to her father: "You asked me to go to the city to work. I will give you all the money I earn and marry and have children for my younger brother. How about it?"

"I've asked someone to inquire. I've been working outside for three years, which is enough to marry and have children for my younger brother."

After hearing this, my father thought this method was not bad, so he reluctantly agreed.

The sheep's tail was immediately excited and began to pack up.

That night, Sheep Tail was still looking forward to a free and easy life in the future, while her father went to drink with people from the same village.

After hearing about Yangwei's father, the man slapped his thigh repeatedly: "You are wrong, you are wrong."

Sheep's tail's father was a little uneasy and asked quickly, "Why am I wrong?"

The man said, "This woman is safest to tie herself to her body. Will she still listen to you when she is in the city?"

"Think about it carefully, after you get into the city, will she make friends with bad people, and will she be seduced by that women's federation?"

"She really won't give you money. What should you do? Do you dare to catch her in the city? Are you not afraid of being sent to the prison?"

The father of the sheep's tail was frightened.
