"Sister Jingwen, sister Hui, let's go sit over there." Chu Yunxi was very happy today. She took Li Jingwen with one hand and Yunhui with the other to sit at the table where the girls were sitting.
"Sister Qian, why didn't you bring your nephew here today?" Chu Yunxi asked Yun Qian with a smile.
Yun Qian is the eldest daughter of the second wife and the eldest granddaughter of the Duke of Guo. She married the Xu family, which is also a wealthy family, two years ago and gave birth to a son last year.
"The baby is too young and we didn't bring it out because it was still cold." Yun Qian pinched Chu Yunxi's nose. "The body has recovered well. Let's go out more often and play at my sister's house when I have time."
"Okay, I'm going to see my nephew in a few days. I haven't seen him for a long time. It's weird." Chu Yunxi likes children very much, but she rarely goes out because of her poor health. Even her grandfather's house only celebrates the New Year. During the festival, go for a spin with Yun Shu.
Li Jingwen sat there playing with the tea cup in his hand, listening to their gossip.
"I heard that Wu Chengxiang and his cousin eloped. The Wu family and the He family all sent servants and guards to look for them quietly. It's been two days and there's still no news. Everyone said they might have left Beijing." came a voice from the men's table over there. come over.
"Wu Chengxiang and He Silin are so courageous. Aren't they afraid of going to jail? They both belong to aristocratic families, and they will be sentenced if caught."
"This is what people call lust that makes you daring and makes you stupid." Someone said with a sneer.
"They may think that as long as they go to a place where they don't know them, they can live a normal life anonymously, otherwise it would be impossible to elope."
"It should be like this. I heard that Wu Chengxiang not only took away his private money, but also quietly sold his private property. The two of them carried a huge sum of money and could live a prosperous life no matter where they went. "
¡°They don¡¯t have the protection of their family, nor the protection of their official positions and fame. So much money may become their destructive talisman.¡±
"Wu Chengxiang is very skilled and should be able to protect the two of them. Besides, as long as his wealth is not exposed, he can find a remote mountain village to live in seclusion and live a life of poverty like the local people. Maybe he can live in harmony for the rest of his life."
"Are they used to enjoying themselves and living in poverty? Especially He Silin. She has more than a dozen maids serving the He family. Not only does she not touch Yang Chun Shui, but she can even comb her hair. Do you think she can get used to it? The life of a village woman? I won¡¯t be long after I¡¯ve seen it and I¡¯ll run back dejected, but I¡¯ll just wait and see how the Wu family and the He family explain it to the outside world.¡±
"What's the explanation? They didn't say that Wu Chengxiang and He Silin were missing. Although the whole circle almost knew the news, who dared to blatantly say that their children had eloped? When the incident subsided, the two of them could marry a man and a woman. , even the Yamen can¡¯t punish them.¡±
"Yes, both of them are well-known families with money and status. This matter will not have a great impact on them, especially the man. He might be able to marry a well-matched wife. Although the woman's reputation is ruined, but It¡¯s okay to marry a poor scholar.¡±
"Sister Jing, Taizu's incest marriage will affect the development of offspring. Why?" Li Jingwen was listening enthusiastically, and Chu Yunxi pulled her sleeve and asked.
"When incestuous marriages occur within three generations, the chances of both parties inheriting the same disease-causing genes from the same ancestor will be greatly increased. The deformity rate of the children born will be several times greater than that of non-consanguineous marriages. The children born will be prone to congenital defects, dwarfism, and intelligence. Diseases such as limitations.¡±
"If it is not suppressed, the incest from generation to generation will even lead to racial degeneration. The physical fitness and IQ of the entire nation will deteriorate, and eventually they will be eliminated. That's why Emperor Taizu issued a strict decree not to allow incest marriages." Li Jingwen explained in a low voice.
"So serious?" Chu Yunxi was so frightened that she slapped her chest.
"Of course, the harm of incest marriage is huge. If nothing else is said, if a fool or a disabled person is born to a family, it will be a huge burden to the family. Those aristocratic families are better off, they have enough money, they just need to raise one more child. , but for ordinary people, it is a big burden." Li Jingwen nodded seriously.
"Our ancestors were really wise and knew how to take precautions before they happened." After hearing this, Chu Yunxi couldn't stop admiring her ancestors for their fatherly respect.
"What is a gene?" Yun Qian asked curiously.
"Gene is a factor in the human body. The closer the blood relationship is to a person, the more genes in common in the body. For example, Miss Yun and sister Yun Xi are biological sisters. Half of your bodies are from the Yun family. Bloodline, so there are more identical genes in the body. The closer the blood relationship is, the more identical genes are in the body. Children born from the same blood are more likely to have deformities.??The bigger. "Li Jingwen didn't know how to explain chromosomes and gene mutations to them, so she could only vaguely explain it by blood relationship.
"Sister Jingwen knows so much." Yun Qian said enviously.
"No, my master is a doctor and has dealt with foreigners, so he knows this." Li Jingwen said embarrassedly.
At this time, ocean shipping was relatively developed, and overseas cargo ships were often stationed at the southern ports, transporting goods to the European and American continents, as well as to the Japanese countries in the East. All were traded by the Great Yan State. Li Jingwen¡¯s master, who no longer exists, could understand these Western medicine terms. Resolved.
Yun Hui opened her mouth to say something, but several relatives of the Chu family came in. Everyone was busy making greetings and greetings. Yun Shu introduced Li Jingwen to them again, and she accepted the gift.
The dinner ended in a friendly and lively atmosphere. Apart from Chu Yunxi, the main character, who received many congratulatory gifts, the one who gained the most was Li Jingwen.
"Brother Chu, how do you think I can return the favor?" Back at the General's Mansion, Li Jingwen pointed to her bag and asked Chu Yunhao.
"Keep it for now, and I'll return the favor later." Chu Yunhao couldn't help but laugh when he saw her wrinkled little face, looking troubled. He thought to himself that she is such a strong child. If he didn't say goodbye, he would only find it too little, but she Afraid of being disrespectful.
"Jingwen, these are all courtesy exchanges, don't worry about it."
"But I have no connection with them, so I feel uneasy accepting such a heavy gift, and I wish I could repay the favor immediately."
"Communications between people are not a matter of a day or two. You will come to Kyoto often in the future, and you are so capable. Are you afraid that you will not have the chance to repay the favor?"
"I know, Brother Chu, I'm going back, you can go back and rest too." Li Jingwen waved to him and turned back to the small courtyard.
The next day, Doudou set off early in the morning. Li Jingwen had nothing to do. After breakfast, he went shopping with Yun Shu and Chu Yunxi. Chu Yunhao was going to court today and without him, there was an extra Team escort.
It is impossible to blindly go shopping with Yunshu. There are fixed stores for shopping in Jiangjun Mansion. Usually, the shopkeeper comes to the door with samples for them to choose. If they are interested, they will go out to have a look. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
