This is a phenomenon in many mountainous areas. Old people can only live at home one day when they are old. Children are what we call left behind children. They can't see their parents all year and can only stay with the mountains.
"Let him ask from door to door. During the four years Zhang Zhiyao was there, he had to ask about everything, big or small, but not limited to the things related to the three people. He had to ask about what happened in the village in those four years.
"It's almost twenty years. Are you sure you can ask?"
"People who know something will never forget it, or even remember it vividly. Maybe someone is waiting for you to ask. Maybe the fear of that year may have turned into guilt and guilt through the precipitation of time. Of course, we can't rule out the fear that we continue to fear, but it doesn't matter. I believe Cao Zhen can see the guilt and fear."
"Yes! I will give it to my elder martial brother without missing a word! "
Then he asked, "is there anything special about that village?"
"You've got to the point. The village places great emphasis on men over women, and the ratio of men to women is seriously unbalanced. Many men marry foreign brides, such as those from Vietnam and Cambodia. It's said that they are all bought with money, and the procedures are legal. The older generation in the village said that because they place great emphasis on men over women, anyone who wants to have a baby girl will be thrown into the back mountain and let it die on its own, Some drowned in the river on the spot. For this reason, a baby tower was built in the village, which was specially used to put abandoned baby girls
The baby tower is a representative building of the Chinese people's son preference. It originates from the fact that some people can't bear to see their own flesh and blood struggling and crying in the water, or fear that the infant's grievances will not disappear soon. In some places, small towers are built in the country fields to put drowning baby girls in them, and let them live and die by themselves, Most of them think that this can provide spiritual comfort, so they follow suit, and the number of baby towers is increasing day by day, becoming a wilderness spectacle.
After hearing this, he gritted his teeth and said, "it's really a bad custom to lose all human relations!"
Jing Sa also felt the same way, "it's just that animals are inferior to animals. Because of this, the ratio of men and women is seriously imbalanced, and social problems emerge one after another. These people don't want to think that their son can't marry a wife, because they didn't harm the baby girl so much in those years. It's a natural cycle, and they eat evil consequences."
It's not only in remote areas, but also in big cities. People always think that having a son is a way of inheriting the family, and a daughter is a way of losing money. The most terrible thing is that not only men think so, but also some women think so, and even do everything for it.
"Was it the same twenty years ago, when there were foreign brides?"
"I don't think so. As far as I know, the new industry of foreign brides has only come into being in recent years. It costs a lot of money to legally marry one. For this reason, some men don't get married until they are in their thirties."
She frowned and said, "how did people in this village get married and have children twenty years ago?"
"Why?"
"Since the ratio of men and women is out of balance, and there are no foreign brides, where can they find a woman to have children?"
Jing SA was stunned. She didn't think about it.
He suddenly pondered, "let Cao Zhen check another thing?"
"What?"
"Find out if there are people in this village who specialize in abducting and trafficking children, especially girls."
"Ah?" Jing SA was a little confused, "er... Does it matter?"
"I don't know yet, but I think it may be very helpful to solve the case."
"OK, I'll let elder martial brother check it right away."
