The Republic of China was cruel.
Now, the courtyard that Shen Hao was living in could be described as a living hell.
There was Dog Two pulling a rickshaw, Old Donkey doing small business, Tie Dan who was a servant, and Sister Feng who was a prostitute. Everyone was hungry and cold.
There was even a 14-year-old girl who didn't have any pants in the family called Tie Dan. She stayed in bed all day. Only those who went out in the family had clothes to wear.
This wasn't just one family. There were many large courtyards.
Their fates were almost the same. When they grew up, they would either be concubines or be sent to the eight alleys to be prostitutes.
Even pregnant women had to do hard labor.
The old man died without a coffin.
The women who were less beautiful had to work hard all their lives. They could not eat or rest.
Women in this era were really miserable.
It took Shen Hao half a month to recover from such a miserable and bitter situation.
Shen Hao couldn't live on, and he didn't have the ability to care about others. Besides, after Shen Hao killed someone, his state of mind was no longer an ordinary person.
It was the early years of the Republic of China, the middle period of the Northern Ocean government. Although Big Head Yuan had not yet become the president, he would die in a few years.
Once Big Head Yuan died, it would mean that the Northern Warlords were about to split up.
It indicated that a relatively orderly period had ended, and a chaotic period was coming.
In this chaotic world, one would really die without strength.
This gave Shen Hao an invisible pressure.
Even though they were newlyweds, they were not in a good mood.
Shen Hao took a deep breath as he looked at the bride with the red veil covering her head. He finally felt a little comforted.
In this life, he had rented a house and married a beautiful woman. He had earned a lot.
Shen Hao carefully lifted the red veil.
Suddenly, a face that was both angry and shy appeared in front of him.
She had a naturally beautiful appearance, a perfectly proportioned oval face, a few strands of bangs on her forehead, and a pair of eyebrows that made her even more charming.
Her skin was fair, and her watery eyes blinked gently.
She had a curvy figure and was a great beauty.
Shen Hao liked the scholarly air she exuded even more.
If this woman was placed in the future, she would definitely be a goddess.
To be honest, this woman was picked up by Shen Hao.
His surname was Bao Shuang, and he was 17 years old this year.
He had escaped from Liaodong Province, so his family did not have to worry about food and drink.
Unfortunately, because of Bao Shuang's outstanding looks, he was targeted by the bandits nearby.
The whole family was in trouble.
Coincidentally, Bao Shuang had escaped a calamity at her grandmother's house that night.
In order not to implicate others, Bao Shuang could only pretend to be ugly and escape to the capital.
In the end, she fainted on the side of the road from hunger and was saved by Shen Hao with a bowl of water and half a pancake.
Perhaps he was grateful for Shen Hao's life-saving grace, or perhaps he was attracted by Shen Hao's appearance.
Bao Shuang asked Shen Hao to marry her the next day.
When he thought of marrying such a beauty with half a pancake, Shen Hao couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Indeed,'A woman in a prosperous age is worth ten thousand taels of gold, while a woman in a troubled time is worth half a pancake.'
Looking at the shy and beautiful woman in front of him, Shen Hao felt a little apologetic.
He was really too poor now.
A woman like her should be spoiled by others.
"Bao Shuang, I've made you suffer. The conditions here are too bad."
Bao Shuang's eyes were red as she shook her head with a blissful expression." I don't mind being blind or rotten. As long as I have you…I'm even willing to eat chaff and swallow vegetables. Just don't abandon me."
What a good woman.
In the future, when a man spent all his assets to marry a wife, he would immediately file for a divorce once he could no longer earn money.
She even said that men were useless. Why didn't she take a look at herself?
In modern society, sharing happiness and suffering was a thing of the past.
Women in this era were still the best. They were clean and considerate. Shen Hao was touched and hugged Bao Shuang.
"Don't worry, I won't let you suffer in this life."
As soon as he finished speaking.
A mechanical voice sounded.
Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully marrying a wife and activating the system of many children and blessings.
Shen Hao was stunned. What was this?
System?
Did he hear wrongly?
