Ancient women/kloc-married at the age of 0/3, and many of them died while giving birth. Can they not get married?

As we all know, in our current society, the legal age for girls to get married is 20 years old, which means that if you want to get married and get a marriage certificate, the legal age for marriage must be at least 20 years old. It can be said that twenty years old is a woman's best youth and belongs to the golden age of life.

However, at that time in ancient times, it was completely different from now. The situation that ancient women didn't get married at the age of 20 basically didn't exist. It is normal for a twenty-year-old woman to have several children. Many women have been talking about marriage since they were only thirteen or fourteen years old. Moreover, in ancient times, this was only a very common phenomenon. But why is this?

Thirteen or fourteen is really a very good age for girls. At this time, the girls are immature in psychological and physical conditions, but they are the most aura in life. They are called the cardamom years, so we can see the particularity of this period. So getting married so early is not a good thing for them.

Incredibly, in ancient times, women were proud of marrying early. For example, the nobles in the Jin Dynasty were proud of early marriage. The empress Chu operator of Jin Kangdi,/kloc-married him at the age of 0/3. Many ancient books also recorded the early marriage at that time. For example, there is a saying in Peacock Flying Southeast that "seventeen years old is a gentleman's wife", indicating that the marriage age of the ancients at that time was generally not more than 17 years old. Moreover, there is a sentence in Hedong Fraxinus mandshurica, which means that ancient women got married at the age of 14 or 15.

This is even more confusing. Isn't it "the words of parents and matchmakers", but the active behavior of women, which is urgent and urgent?

In fact, women's early marriage was the crystallization of special wisdom in society at that time.

As we all know, ancient times was an unfair society, and the idea of son preference was deeply rooted. For women, their only advantage is having children, that is, continuing the incense.

After all, in ancient times, people didn't have enough food and clothing, and they couldn't get timely and effective treatment when they got sick, so many people died in just a few decades, and their life span was relatively short. In addition, due to poor medical measures and insufficient nutrition supply for raising children, many children died shortly after birth. In ancient times, whether it was war or other, a large population was needed, so it was very important for women to have children. Therefore, girls get married and have children so early, and whoever has more children will be more powerful. After all, the golden age of girls is only a few years. At this time, early marriage has become a social atmosphere, especially those concubines in the palace, who often compare with each other.

Another point is that there are rules for ancient women to get married. During the Warring States period, the Qi Huangong order of Qi State: women married at the age of fourteen; Gou Jian, the king of Yue, ordered the woman to get married at the age of fifteen. Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty wrote a letter, and the woman got married at the age of fifteen. Emperor Wu of Jin ordered that women get married at the age of seventeen; Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty ordered: Twelve women get married; Emperor Taizong's Zhenguan Order: Women get married at the age of fourteen. It shows that the average marriage age of ancient women is almost 134 years old. In this way, although women are not well developed, they must get married. They don't want to, but there's nothing they can do.

During the war, that woman will get an official reward for giving birth to a child. For example, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, wars among countries continued and a large number of people were needed. If a woman has children, she will get wine and pork. The more children she has, the more rewards she will get. So many girls want to marry into a country with rich rewards.

However, some people questioned this phenomenon, such as Wang Ji in Han Dynasty and Sima Guang in Song Dynasty, and pointed out the harm of early marriage to women. Just because the social conditions were different at that time, no one could save the fate of women. Even if someone sees that it is not good for a woman to get married at the age of thirteen or fourteen, there is nothing she can do.

Fortunately, for us, we live in a relatively fair society, at least we can control our own happiness, at least compared with ancient times, we have the right to choose.
