Chapter 1523: Live and Work in Peace and Contentment (1)
At the beginning, they saw men being paraded through the streets every day.
Later on, no one could afford to lose face, and besides, if they were caught they would be beaten, so no one dared to do it again!
Being beaten is a small matter, but being paraded through the streets is a big deal.
Furthermore, because of her status as a lady, the woman is no longer as selfless as before and has awakened her own consciousness.
Now everyone knows that if a woman is treated unfairly by her husband's family, she can seek help from the women's association, where the adults will stand up for her.
Moreover, if a woman who has left her husband's family does not want to return to her parents' home, she can also apply to be established as a female household.
Many shops also began to accept female workers, and later found that women were more careful than men in some things and rarely made mistakes.
Most importantly, you can gain a good reputation.
Stores that are willing to employ female workers have received a lot of praise.
The current Heyang City has a modern feel. Women can go out on the streets safely without having to worry about being molested.
Therefore, the most united people in Heyang City must be women. They take Ji Xiaou as an example and teach their daughters to be self-reliant like Ji Xiaou.
The waiter looked at Li Hong's surprised expression and felt full of pride.
"Sir, you should stop looking down on women. Do you see those shops with red ribbons? They are shops that employ female workers."
"Look at our Madam, she is the goddess in the hearts of all the people in Heyang City!"
“It really opened my eyes.”
Li Hong took out some silver to reward the waiter, but the waiter shook his head.
"It's just two sentences, no need to bother."
"Here! Thank you for helping me clear up my confusion."
Li Hong put the silver directly into the waiter's hand, and the smile on the waiter's face deepened.
"Thank you, sir and madam."
After the waiter left, Li Hong looked at Si Jing. After Si Jing finished reading the whole thing, she raised her eyes and looked at Li Hong.
"You should learn from your sister-in-law."
Si Jing felt that it was really necessary for Li Hong to stay in Heyang City for a few more days to take in the local customs and culture.
The more Si Jing watched with Li Hong, the more she felt this way.
The governance of Heyang City is even more prosperous than that of Li Hong's city.
"really."
Li Hong was not angry, but nodded solemnly.
If he had not seen it with his own eyes, he would not have believed that under the governance of Ji Xiaou, Heyang City would become so prosperous.
The last time he came here, there were beggars begging, but now, there is not even a beggar on the ground.
There weren't even many soldiers patrolling, and the people still kept order. No one made a big noise, and there was no one causing trouble.
Everyone is doing what they are supposed to do in an orderly manner.
Li Hong took Si Jing to stroll around Heyang City every day. Not only in the city, but also in borrowing Bai Yichen's carriage, and even in the villages.
When Bai Yichen told Ji Xiaomu all these things, Ji Xiaomu just smiled slightly.
"Let him see these things, and he will know what a truly peaceful and prosperous world is."
"This is just a small prototype. If he wants to become the real emperor, these are the problems he will encounter in the future."
Ji Xiaomu's words made Bai Yichen pause, and then he smiled knowingly at Ji Xiaomu.
They don't care who is the emperor. What they care about is whether the emperor really works for the welfare of the people, rather than just talking big and doing the same wrong things according to the traditions passed down from the past.
"Then should I show him something more?"
Bai Yichen curled the corner of his mouth.
"You can figure it out."
Ji Xiaomu smiled faintly.
