On the way to the quarry, Wen Shi couldn't help but ask Qin Liuxi what she meant by saying that the pitiable always have something to be despised.
Lu Xun also perked up his ears.
Qin Liuxi smiled faintly, "Six chastity arches, all these Chaste Ladies come from one village. Is it because of good feng shui? Or good upbringing? Second Young Master Wen, if you were born a woman, would you be willing at such a young age, even before marriage, to guard your deceased husband's name for a lifetime, just for the title of Chaste Woman?"
Wen Shi was stunned, would he be willing?
Probably not.
Da Feng customs are open, supporting widows or dismissed women to remarry, unless truly devoted, many would prefer to seek new life.
Especially when young, given better days ahead, who would want to spend a lifetime in solitude?
"If you were willing, but your village refused to let you fall from the Chaste Woman title, what then?" Qin Liuxi added.
