First, if parents order a matchmaker, marriage is not up to them. Most of the maids who worked in the Jia family signed contracts, and some of them were sold to the Jia family. When they get to Jia's house, they can use Jia's power to bully. Once they are released, they are poor people without supporters and money. Ancient women had a low status and could not get married by their own will. This is a question of which man their parents like. When they meet good people, they naturally live a peaceful and happy life and meet food and drink.
There are tragic figures like Cai Xia. Because of her beauty and ability, she was attracted by Wang Xifeng's The Wangs. This man is a man who knows nothing, but he happens to be a man who eats, drinks, whores and gambles. The most terrible thing is that he is ugly. The result of Cai Xia's marriage with him can be imagined, but under the coercion and inducement of Wang Xifeng, Cai Xia married such a person. Her final book said nothing but the verdict.
With the example of rosy clouds, the maids at home naturally want to be aunts, at least they can get a stable life without worrying about their future livelihood. The most important thing is that they can choose a little for themselves. With these benefits, they naturally want to work hard to become aunts.
Second, Aunt Zhao has been wronged, but she is fully worthy of the treatment of her master. Aunt Zhao is not a person in front of grandmothers, but she is also a person with status at home. If she can have a son and a daughter for the rest of her life, she can rely on it. Even if it's just a concubine, she will live quite comfortably. She has a sedan chair and a carriage to go out, a maid and a page to serve her every day, and she can receive more money as expenses every month.
If you want to be redeemed by your family at the age of your servant girl, that is, to get married, you might as well be an aunt in Jiafu. Although the name is not pleasant to listen to, it is a concubine's room and a servant girl from a poor family. Who cares so much? Finding a good place for yourself is the most important thing. Other unimportant things are out of their consideration.
In other words, when you become an aunt at home, you really have to swallow it. As long as you are a straight-headed lady, you can scold your aunt, but this is also the best outcome that a slave who enters the house as a maid can win for himself.
Finally, it is only from the pit of fire to the mire that a maid becomes an aunt, which is a slightly better way for women in feudal society.
