The Princess of Northern Land -
Chapter 580: Madness (3)_1
Chapter 580: Chapter 580: Madness (3)_1
Besides, he knew that Lin Ziyin was a woman without ambition. Everything she did was purely for herself and the people of the Northern Land.
However, the cheeky girl actually dared to test him, obviously doubting him in her heart. Therefore, he said that deliberately, intending to make a minor "retaliation".
"Since the prince..." Lin Ziyin tried to explain that she was only joking, but found herself unable to speak.
After all, she was not good at lying.
The atmosphere became somewhat awkward.
"The seafood can be preserved, which indeed benefits the fishermen the most," Si Jinhan suddenly spoke.
For some reason, he didn’t want to see disappointment on Lin Ziyin’s face.
"However, if the princess would like to help manage the Northern Land together with me, it couldn’t be better. But remember, if you ever feel tired, immediately let others take over," Chu Suifeng finished the unfinished words while serving food for Lin Ziyin.
Did he agree? Lin Ziyin’s face immediately filled with a grateful and excited smile.
"The Northern Land has a small population, and women can hold up half the sky. If one cannot manage a family, how can one manage a kingdom? Not only do women give birth to boys and girls for men, but they also have to do so many other things every day. But our society is too harsh on women. Prince, can you consider making some laws for women’s benefit? So that men will also understand how difficult it is for women," Lin Ziyin’s spirits soared with Chu Suifeng’s support.
Si Jinhan, Situ Gong, and Luo Heng were all stunned. The future princess is too bold? She hasn’t even entered the household yet and is already thinking about protection.
After all, they were all born and bred in ancient times, where the idea of men farming and women weaving and the doctrine of husband and wife were deeply ingrained.
All the men turned their eyes to Chu Suifeng, eager to hear what the prince would say.
"Fine, when we return, have Mr. Situ and Mei Hanqing start working on it. If the princess has any ideas, you can talk to them," the reply from Chu Suifeng made all the men look at each other.
The prince actually compromised!
"The Northern Land doesn’t grow cotton, but it can be grown in the south of the Northern Land. We could have our own fabric factories, producing not only wool but also cotton yarn sweaters. Women can also work in various workshops," Lin Ziyin was genuinely excited and extremely grateful to Chu Suifeng.
It’s rare for a man to do so unconditionally for a woman. For the first time, she felt glad that she hadn’t given up on this marriage.
Situ Gong and others smiled bitterly, watching the prince seemingly beginning to head in the direction of becoming henpecked.
But on second thought, there might be something to what Lin Ziyin said. The best example was Shili Village.
After the adjustments, or under the deliberate indulgence of Lin Ziyin, the status of men and women in Shili Village was mostly equal. The money earned by women was not less than that of men, but these women did not become arrogant. They were just some stronger and more confident than ordinary women.
However, if these women from Shili Village were to fend for themselves, they would indeed be able to survive on their own.
"We can also encourage women to learn trades and go out to do business," Lin Ziyin said, her eyebrows dancing, "As long as the people can solve their basic necessities, as long as they are strong themselves, I don’t think anyone would dare to threaten the Northern Land."
Her forceful words stimulated everyone present.
Lin Ziyin was absolutely right, with strong citizens, the country is strong, and no one would dare to bully them.
