445 Proof of True Love?
This unusual telegram begins with the following words:
"To the Red Chamber, we, Gu Jin, Zhu Beiguo, and Xu Zhi, hereby solemnly declare the following in the name of our personal personality and affection for our families:
The three of us will renew the vows we made when we married our wives - to grow old together, to be partners for life, and never betray. Therefore, we hereby solemnly declare that we will never take concubines in this life! ”
When Xiao Fei found Sun Lao with this telegram, several old guys from the Supreme Executive Committee were discussing in the restaurant, and Wang Xue was also there.
Sun Lao took the telegram and glanced at it, but didn't speak, just handed it to Wang Xue, who took the telegram and glanced at it for a few lines, and said with a smile:
"What's this for? Is it necessary to send such a telegram? ”
"Captain Gu, Xiao Zhu Xiaoxu, this is expressing determination, I want to give you a marriage reassurance......
"No need!"
Engineer Wang interrupted Sun Lao's explanation a little unceremoniously, then paused, changed his tone to a softer tone, and continued:
“…… The matter of the relationship between husband and wife belongs to the private neighborhood, how can it be resolved in the form of a public statement? Besides, if you have a deep relationship, it doesn't matter if you don't have this statement!
However, if one side of the husband and wife changes their minds, this statement is a shackle and will eventually make both of them miserable, so it's better not to engage in this kind of thing. ”
Wang Xue's faint words made everyone unable to refute for a while, and then Sun Lao took a sip of tea and broke the temporary silence.
"Well, the telegram at least shows Captain Gu's current feelings and determination, Wang Gong don't be too sharp, ...... Ladies and gentlemen are a little sensitive about this......"
"What Elder Sun said makes sense, at least it shows that Captain Gu and the others are still sticking to their feelings."
At this time, Lao Ba also helped on the side.
"Hey...... You men......"
Wang Xue shook her head suddenly, sighed with a smile, and then continued:
"Actually, we're not entirely for ourselves, at least, I'm also for the two daughters, Taotao and Tingting, right?
As a mother, I really don't want them to live in a world where men can have three wives and four concubines unscrupulously in the future, and the key is that there is no hope for improvement for a while!
We liberate women to fight for equality between men and women, of course, for the future happiness of our own children, but not only for the sake of children!
Needless to say, the current social reality is indeed quite desperate, yes, we do have a sense of despair, because we know the direction of history, but it is precisely because we know the trend that we have a sense of despair and unwillingness, right?!
So one thing is certain: we are really anxious and want to work hard to achieve equality between men and women! We may have been in a bit of a hurry, but please put our persistence and some ...... in perspective What you think is a sensitive, or radical idea. ”
When Wang Xue said this, seeing that Sun Lao still wanted to say something, she quickly sped up her speech and said:
"As women from the old world, since we have come to this new world, we have long been mentally prepared for what kind of social environment our families and marriages will face.
Of course we seek true love, but what is true love?
You think that making selfless sacrifices for the people you love is called true love, but you are wrong!
The real answer is: you love the person or thing you are willing to give for.
Because that person or something has a shadow of yourself! Sometimes, it's even a part of you!
Because everyone loves themselves, you will willingly give for your own shadow, or a part of yourself!
So, folks, love yourself.
And to truly love yourself is to make yourself a noble person!
I also know that most people don't understand or realize this, but that doesn't stop each of us from seeking true love.
Okay, I won't say much about the esoteric things, so please understand for yourself......"
"What Wang Gong said is very true, although it is a little difficult to understand your true love, but you said that your two daughters will pursue equality between men and women in the future, everyone understands, after all, none of us can only give birth to boys and not girls in this life......"
"Yes, yes."
Sun Lao and Lao Ba also nodded together at this time, and their attitudes were quite sincere.
So Wang Xue smiled:
"As for what this telegram means to several other couples, I don't dare to decide, but when it comes to my husband, I don't doubt Gu Jin's feelings for me and my family.
Gu Jin is a kind-hearted person, and the foundation of our relationship is also clearly there, we have a part of each other, therefore, this kind of telegraph of determination has no practical meaning to me, and it seems that the husband and wife are separated by sending a public telegram in writing...... Elder Sun, you are all from the past, do you think this is the reason? ”
"This ...... Hearing Wang Gong say this, Captain Gu and they seem to be a bit self-defeating, haha......"
Lao Zhu suddenly laughed beside him.
"Of course, according to my understanding of the other girls, I believe that Fangfang and Xiaocao still appreciate this telegram, and I think that after reading this telegram, they may be in a better mood.
But what is certain is that neither Duna nor I will be cold to this kind of thing, you look at Dr. Quan, he is not involved in these things at all, except for soaking in the laboratory all day to develop drugs, the rest is to concentrate on making Du Na pregnant......"
Wang Xue smiled and said to the group of old guys of the Supreme Executive Committee in front of him.
"By the way, what is the scientific research effect of Dr. Quan?"
Lao Ba suddenly asked with great interest.
"According to Duna, she can still get pregnant, don't forget, our body is optimized by Nicole, Duna's physical condition is normal, and Dr. Quan is also working hard.
You see, even if Dr. Quan does not participate in this 'declaration of love', Du Na is very relieved, because Dr. Quan is trying to give her a child, as long as the woman is voluntary, then this is a very real way for a man to love a woman, everyone, what do you think? ”
"Wang Gong, they are all women, why is there such a difference?"
"Don't you know, Elder Wang? When a woman reaches my age, she will see through a lot of things...... Hey, romantic youth is gone......"
"So, what do you think of this Federal Marriage Compensation Act?"
Wang Xue pondered for a moment, and replied in a firm tone:
"Elder Sun, everyone here, I think that the bottom line of justice and conscience must be adhered to!
As for some specific clauses, such as the compensation ratio, custody and custody of children, these contents can be discussed and negotiated, but our moral bottom line against polygamy must not be broken!
In a word, the principle of promoting equality between men and women must not be discarded! This is not only my personal opinion, but also the opinion of all women who have crossed over!
Otherwise, we will lose the moral high ground in the New World, and don't forget, even in Europe today, in the seventeenth century, especially in some Protestant dioceses, those Protestants have already begun to try to make equal rights for men and women!
Surprised, guys? This is the gap in civilization! Those of us who come from the old world are not as good as the ancients of 300 years ago, right? ”
"Christianity emphasizes that everyone is equal before God, including women, of course, so it is normal for the feminist movement to originate in Christian areas in history, and people have innate factors in cultural traditions."
Lao Wang added meaningfully at this time, and everyone present bowed their heads and remained silent when they heard it, because they all knew what Lao Wang meant.
Lao Wang recently joined the discussion on polygamous marriage, and he publicly stated at a meeting that in the Eastern world, let alone Christianity, even true religious beliefs are limited to utilitarian prayers for blessings and disasters, children and wealth, where do people have any religious feelings to advocate equality between men and women?
Therefore, it would be a bit hasty for us to mention this concept of equality between men and women too early.
Therefore, Lao Wang is one of those who explicitly oppose the restriction of polygamy by legislation, and he is called the representative of the conservative faction in the middle of the world.
And Wang has his own set of conservative theories, arguing that if we enact legislation to ban polygamy, we will lose an opportunity to "prove our own goodness".
In this regard, Lao Wang explained that the darker the era, the more dazzling the light of human nature becomes.
For example, you Gu Jin and his wife, if in the era of prohibiting polygamy, you say that you have true love and will never betray, this is very good!
However, in the eyes of others, it is still a little pale and powerless, right?
Why? After all, polygamy is forbidden by law!
Because everyone is the same, whether voluntarily or forced, how do you prove that you have the noble sentiment to insist on monogamy?
On the contrary, in this seventeenth century, when polygamy was allowed, if you and your husband and wife really insisted on monogamy, even if it only lasted for a while, that proves that there is true love between you?
So, under the legal conditions that allow polygamy, it does give you a chance to "prove your own goodness"!
As soon as this remark came out, the venue was boiling, everyone was amazed at Lao Wang's opinion, and the applause was thunderous for a while, and the praise was endless, and some people really said on the spot that they wanted to be monogamous to find true love, and never be a bad man, otherwise I, a good person, would not be able to prove that I am a good person......
"Obviously, this is not the case in our East, the traditional culture is different, the common people have lived under hierarchy and discrimination since they were born, and there is no concept of equality for everyone congenitally, so if we are in a hurry, I am afraid it will backfire......"
So Lao Ba also began to play the same old tune.
