After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields Chapter 80

Chapter 80 Burning Books

Qin Yao closed the book and felt dazed for a moment.

The walls of the house in front of her slowly collapsed, revealing a wider world that slowly unfolded before her eyes.

The book may be fabricated unofficial history, but no matter how it is arranged, in this male-dominated society, no one will write out of thin air the separation of powers between the emperor and the queen, the queen almost becoming a king on her own, and the princess wanting to be the crown princess.

Who is the author who wrote this book?

Qin Yao reopened the novel, leaving only the words "Anonymous" at the end.

In fact, there have been stories circulating among the people about the emperor and the empress' family. What was said in the teahouse was that the emperor and the empress had a deep relationship, and there was only one empress in the palace.

The only people in the discussion were the emperor and his two princes. They said that the emperor was born in poverty and hated corrupt officials the most. The two princes personally visited various places to rectify the Qingming Festival. They also reduced the corvee tax and granted amnesty to the world.

But I have never heard anyone mention what kind of person the Queen is and what contribution she has made to Shengguo.

But it was not she who was studying, but Liu Ji.

Shop owners can also see many women, and even Miss Ding's study can be filled with various unofficial novels.

So Qin Yao's suggestion is to burn it.

Ms. Ding smiled playfully, "But I have written down all the contents. I just don't know if my brother has read the contents of the book."

But if she looked at it, she couldn't guarantee that she would accidentally reveal her fault in the future. Her father was so shrewd that he would definitely find it out.

A little more, study with your head down, read to death, and become a scholar, right?

Being able to be exempted from taxes and corvee can be regarded as a contribution to the family.

Ms. Ding hesitated for less than two seconds. In the end, curiosity prevailed. She sat down in front of the desk and opened the storybook.

It's too early to go to bed. Qin Yao stretched herself, lying in her single room, looking at the hazy moonlight outside the small window, not feeling sleepy at all.

A soft "click" sound came from the back of the house.

Outside Ding Mansion is a large field of farmland. There are bursts of frog sounds in the field, which feels a bit like white noise. Qin Yao squinted her eyes and gradually felt a little sleepy.

After dinner, the first thing she did was to run to Qin Yao and ask her to help burn books.

“Don't be afraid, it's not a big deal. It's just that different people will read it, so there will be deviations in understanding.”

"I can tell you the contents of this book later, but I think it's better to burn the book first. Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the unexpected. Both the master and the young master will pursue official careers in the future. It is easy for something to happen if such a book is left at home. ”

Just then he clapped his hands and prepared to go back home to rest.

The entire inner courtyard was so quiet that there was no sound at all. The lights in Miss Ding's room were all turned off.

The story is not long, only 30,000 to 40,000 words, and Qin Yao read it in half an hour.

As long as you have fame and fame, you can live a leisurely life like Mr. Ding, where someone gives you money and land, and you don't have to go to the fields yourself.

As for farming, Qin Yao now has a new idea—she wants to use reading to change her destiny!

In her last life, she was fighting and killing, but in this life, Qin Yao just wants to enjoy life more.

It's just that this standard of living is a little higher than that of ordinary people in Shengguo.

Qin Yao understands her feelings, "In the past, the protagonists were all men, and it is indeed rare to have women as the protagonists."

Before he had a fever, he said reluctantly: "This is the first time I have seen such a wonderful story book. It would be great if it was not about saints."

After getting along with each other for this period of time, Qin Yao found that although Liu Ji was a lazy person, he still had a bright mind and was very aware of current affairs.

If you can get a small clerical job like a clerk in the county town, it will be a class leap.

With Master Ding's temper, if he found out that the content in the book was so explosive, he would probably burn it immediately.

She did not have high expectations for Liu Ji, and it was enough to be promoted.

Qin Yao came to the empty space in the backyard, lit a pile of leaves, threw the book in, and burned it out in a while.

She can't go back after all, so she naturally hopes that there will be fewer and fewer restrictions on women.

“Ms. Qin, have you finished reading?”

How great it would be if she could take the imperial examination, and the fame, fortune, and wealth would all be hers!

Looking at Qin Yao's serious expression, Miss Ding also thought, "Do you really want to burn it?"

Miss Ding's face changed, "Is it so serious?" Qin Yao nodded. In future generations, it would definitely be fine, but the imperial power here is supreme and the social system is strictly hierarchical. The storytellers in the teahouse only dare to say good things about the emperor, so they are still cautious. .

Qin Yao smiled lightly at her, went out and stood in the corridor.

In the past, no one could hold him down. He spent three days fishing and two days drying nets, but she is someone who has experienced "three years of college entrance examination and five years of simulation".

He has a certain foundation and is an adult, so there is no need to worry about his life or death.

Qin Yao recalled the various information she received during this period. In fact, compared with the previous dynasty, restrictions on women have been much looser. Women can be seen traveling on the streets of the county town, and there are also women vendors.

If you haven't seen it, she will not be exposed in her future words and deeds.

Qin Yao was thinking very well, and she planned to end her bodyguard trip and lay down her head when she got home and let Liu Ji start reading again, but she still sighed unhappily.

Qin Yao guessed, "I probably haven't read it, otherwise I wouldn't have given it to you, Miss."

Plus he is shameless and has a good face, so maybe throwing him out in social circles will do wonders.

These clues are all connected together, giving Qin Yao a feeling that the status of women is quietly improving.

But in the study, Miss Ding stayed all afternoon and did not come out until dinner time.

As Qin Yao was about to go out, Miss Ding quickly stopped her and said with some fear, "I don't dare to look."

It's a pity, it can only be a pity...

Qin Yao nodded, put the storybook in her hand on the desk, and reminded the girl in front of her, "I have read all the contents, and I suggest burning it."

So among the new generation, restrictions on women have become looser.

Ms. Ding walked around the courtyard seven or eight times. She felt that the time was almost up, so she trotted into the study excitedly.

No matter how reluctant you are to leave it, the book still has to be burned.

And if the contents of this book are misunderstood as a disparagement of the emperor, there will be trouble.

This trip to Ding Mansion made Qin Yao understand clearly that if you want to have a better life, you must follow the rules of this society.

Thinking of this, Qin Yao couldn't help but feel a little excited.

It was already dark. Qin Yao went in through the corner door. Zhang Ba opened the door for her. When he saw her coming in, he closed the door and fastened the bolt, then went into the small wing next to the door to rest.

Perhaps, at the upper level that they cannot see, there are powerful people of the same **** who have the power to fight for their rights.

Seeing her reluctance, Qin Yao suggested that she open the book and read it herself, "I'll go outside and help you look after the wind."

In order to leave no traces, burn it again to make sure not a single page is left.

Qin Yao opened her eyes and sat up from the bed as a reflex reflex. Her hand fell on the long knife on the table next to the bed.

I listened carefully and saw someone rustling outside the courtyard, as if trying to put something on the wall.
