Facing the pursuit of Qi Heng, the first beautiful man in Beijing played by Zhu Yilong, a fairy figure, Sheng was also moved and liked. However, she clearly knows that the status gap between the two people is too big. If she wants to marry Qi Heng, she can only be a concubine, and she has made it clear that she would rather be a farm couple than a concubine. Although Houmen can enjoy wealth and splendor as a concubine, why doesn't she want to?
Bian Xiao believes that, first, the hostess Sheng doesn't like Xiao Qiheng so much, and it is not necessary for him. As she said in the original work, "I am guilty because when a person treats me sincerely, I only think of myself."
Second, the woman's biological mother hopes not to let her be a concubine.
The third is what I have seen and heard since I was a child, so that the hostess can understand how humble my position is, and my children will be treated differently by the world (except his family, of course, because loving a wife like a father is wonderful and strange), which is also the main reason.
What a humble ancient concubine room. Let me introduce you:
Spouses other than wives are ordinary wives, but they are usually called concubines. According to their status, wives are different from concubines. In addition, there will be some women without formal marriage ceremony, mostly untouchable women such as handmaids or prostitutes, similar to modern mistresses, sometimes called concubines or concubines.
Of course, there are many sources of concubines, and the order from high to low is 1: famous concubines; Level 2: the daughter of Ding Bai, a civilian; Level 3: the concubine on the back of the maid; Level 4: the daughter sold by the destitute home; Level 5: concubine; Grade 6: prostitute and concubine.
Before the Song and Yuan Dynasties, concubines could not be wives, otherwise the man might be sentenced to one and a half years' imprisonment. I can be bought and sold by a mistress with my master. When the sedan chair comes in at the wedding, I will make tea for my wife and mistress in my room. Etiquette is not complete until the hostess drinks the tea in my room. Generally speaking, there is also a "standing distance", that is, serving the hostess at a fixed time every day, giving orders to the hostess, and not entering the ancestral hall on the genealogy. At night, the husband can't spend the night in the concubine room, and the registered permanent residence must go back to the wife room for the night, which has no status at all.
