Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable Chapter 94: The Crime of Gender 94 Third Night
Having traveled for more than half a year, everyone had a blast, witnessing countless famous mountains and great rivers. If not for Mrs. Bai waiting back ho, Qin Shuangshuang could have journeyed for two years, as the scenery was just too captivating to leave.
The journey was a happy one, and upon returning to the border city, there was even better news: during this travel, Fang Yaoyao and Qi Pengfei, as well as Qin Miaomiao and Yan Jie, had developed mutual affections.
Qin Shuangshuang sowhat sensed this along the way back to the border city, observing the two young n continually showing attentiveness to Qin Miao and Fang Yao. Knowing the character of these two, Qin Shuangshuang was pleased to see the relationships form, so she did not interfere.
Due to past events in another lifeti, Qin Shuangshuang always felt a resistance towards n, so she herself had no plans to marry. Even though Mrs. Bai and Fang Zhongyi were worried and ntioned it daily, she always found ways to avoid the topic of marriage.
Fortunately, Mrs. Bai and Fang Zhongyi dote on their children; although they ntion it occasionally, they do not pressure her, fearing that forcing her might lead her to marry soone without feelings and live an unhappy life. This attitude naturally could not sway Qin Shuangshuang, who was firmly set against marriage.
However, Qin Shuangshuang seed to have set a bad example. Following her lead, Fang Yao and Qin Miao pursued the path of strong, independent won, refusing to marry just like Qin Shuangshuang, using various excuses.
Now, it wasn’t only Mrs. Bai and Fang Zhongyi who were worried to the point of almost graying their hairs; even Qin Shuangshuang secretly worried so much she almost pulled her hair out. It wasn’t that she thought Fang Yao and Qin Miao shouldn’t stay unmarried.
But having lived through two lifetis and being of mature age, Qin Shuangshuang decided on lifelong singleness after thorough reflection. Qin Miao and Fang Yao, however, were still young, and Qin Shuangshuang feared they were deliberately not marrying to emulate her example, leading to regret and pain in their middle and later years.
Qin Shuangshuang was almost developing a ntal burden over this matter. Taking advantage of the border city’s open-minded customs where pre-marital look-see is customary, she secretly arranged for n she found suitable to ’bump into’ Fang Yao and Qin Miao, hoping to see if they liked anyone.
However, the outco disappointed Qin Shuangshuang, as Fang Yao and Qin Miao were so devoted to the family business that they remained oblivious to the hints, not even sparing a glance at any of the n!
Qin Shuangshuang was almost resigned to thinking that she would join the two girls in becoming lifelong singles, but these two young won suddenly caught on and found perfect husbands themselves.
General Qi’s family values were exemplary; he himself did not take concubines and stipulated that his two sons could not do so either unless they were childless by forty.
Since there would be no concubines, it was imperative to have a harmonious marriage with the lifelong wife; otherwise, spending a lifeti with soone you don’t like would be too painful. Qi Pengfei had high standards and hadn’t found a girl who satisfied him for years.
Yan Jie was a principled man; these past years, he didn’t marry and only had one fiancée, who eventually didn’t want to co to the border city and beca frequently ill, delaying the marriage until she ultimately broke off the engagent to marry another. Humiliated, Yan Jie vowed not to marry until he achieved success, hence his prolonged singleness.
Now things were better, the two couples of similar age and compatible temperants returned to the border city, and General Qi and Yan Jie’s parents eagerly sent matchmakers. It wasn’t just Qin Shuangshuang’s side stressing over Fang Yao and Qin Miao’s topics, Qi Pengfei and Yan Jie’s parents were anxious too.
Such excellent sons unable to find partners! The two sets of parents worried to the point of graying their hairs. Now that the sons finally found soone they liked, and the match was suitable in terms of family status.
Qin Shuangshuang was a Second-Grade General, her mother held a third-rank imperial decree, and the two girls were capable, each managing over a thousand people. Even though they were of an older unmarried age, suitors were plenty, but they simply weren’t interested. Such a union was truly made in heaven.
The matchmakers were also pleased, favoring families where both sides were willing. It saved them talking and paid well, without the worry of the couple not getting along and laying bla—an ideal task.
Neither family was short of money, and the matchmakers left with full purses, smiling widely as flattering words flowed freely. The marriage arrangent took over half a year from agreent to wedding because the traditional formalities for marrying into a big family were too many—yet this was considered fast.
Qin Miao and Fang Yao were married together, and the wedding was overwhelmingly lively, with both sets of parents spending extravagantly, hosting flowing banquets for a month straight! It was a frenzied celebration!
After Fang Yao and Qin Miao married, Qin Shuangshuang’s difficult days began. Mrs. Bai and Fang Zhongyi shifted all their focus onto Qin Shuangshuang, pondering daily which man might be a match for their all-capable daughter.
Pushed to her limits, Qin Shuangshuang took station at the Mutual Market, patrolling the Grassland daily, rarely returning ho. Frustrated, Mrs. Bai and Fang Zhongyi would increase their nagging each ti they saw Qin Shuangshuang, while Mrs. Bai incessantly expressed her desire for grandchildren.
This went on until Qin Shuangshuang turned thirty. Unable to bear the combined pressure from Mrs. Bai and Fang Zhongyi, she adopted two orphans to be looked after by Mrs. Bai and Fang Zhongyi.
Over the years, Mrs. Bai and Fang Zhongyi had realized Qin Shuangshuang’s intent to live unmarried, transitioning from resistance to resignation. Now that Qin Shuangshuang had even adopted a son and a daughter, there was finally no worry about having no one for their eventual old-age care. Mrs. Bai had no choice but to accept her daughter’s decision to remain single, focusing on diligently raising her grandchildren at ho.
In this lifeti, Qin Shuangshuang lived to ninety. When she passed away, the Qin Family had beco a prominent family in the border city with over a thousand mbers and nurous officials. Moreover, the Qin Clan’s girls were all capable, with many running businesses and managing properties independently, leading thriving lives. The Qin Clan did not favor sons over daughters, raising girls in the sa way, resulting in the girls’ excellence.
They say that with a virtuous wife, a husband’s fortune prevails. The Qin Clan’s outstanding girls never worried about finding a good in-law. Especially after many instances where a family was restored after marrying a Qin girl who turned the situation around, the Qin Clan’s daughters were much sought after!
The Qin Clan won’s excellence also influenced the culture in the border city, further fostering an open atmosphere towards won. While true gender equality was yet to be achieved, the view that girls were burdens had faded.
Later, Qin Shuangshuang opened several private schools for girls, employing excellent Qin Clan won as teachers. The schools aid to teach literacy, expand perspectives, and impart business skills, including various trades.
Qin Shuangshuang’s goal was to ensure won could support themselves without reliance on n. Many won couldn’t leave n because they couldn’t sustain themselves. When won possessed self-sufficient skills, their ntality naturally shifted, enhancing their status in the family.
Qin Shuangshuang dedicated her early life to protect the nation and her later life to elevating won’s status. She succeeded in both endeavors. The Grassland Tribes were long subdued economically and could no longer detach from Da Ran’s comrce.
Under Qin Shuangshuang’s influence and her legendary life, combined with the excellence of the Qin Clan’s won, the status of won in the coming century spread from the border city throughout Da Ran. It truly altered the subdued position of won dependent on n.
In the later years of Da Ran, countless excellent won erged, rivaling n, and in their hearts, they revered and admired one woman above all— the legendary Qin Shuangshuang!
Qin Shuangshuang died smiling. Many ca to bid her farewell, and after her death, the entire nation mourned. The common people spontaneously erected a massive statue outside of Feiying Pass—a woman in military attire riding a majestic black horse, glancing back with spiritual brightness and awe-inspiring majesty!
