Zheng Chuyun crossed over and became the head wife of the governor of Yangzhou. Unfortunately, just a few days after crossing over, her home was ransacked, the male family members were sent to the army, and the female family members went back wherever they came from.
Zheng Chuyun thought it was okay and encouraged him to live well in ancient times through personal struggle.
There were just a few delicate concubines at home who had nowhere to go, so they grabbed Zheng Chuyun's clothes and wanted to follow her.
Zheng Chuyun had no choice but to take several concubines back to the village and teach them how to farm and weave to become self-sufficient.

The pampered concubines are uncomfortable with the life of working from sunrise to sunset.
+
Concubine 1: My bones are falling apart.
+
Concubine 2: These clothes are going to scratch my skin.
+
Concubine 3: I want to drink blood oatmeal, green wheat and lotus seed soup.
+
Zheng Chuyun looked at the three delicate concubines in front of him and threw a hoe: "If you don't want to starve to death, go to the fields and farm for me!"
+
Later, the concubine's bones were no longer sore and she could plant rice seedlings straight in the field. The second concubine's skin was no longer delicate. She fertilized the fields in the sun. The third concubine stopped making troubles and drank lotus seed soup. She held a big steamed bun and gnawed it, which was especially sweet.

Zheng Chuyun sat on Tiankan and thought to himself: The labor class is good, specializing in treating hypocrisy.
+
A year later, Zheng Chuyun used his wisdom to lead his concubines to live a life of prosperity and wealth. One day, he said: "You can take your money and find your own life. It doesn't matter if you remarry. Don't miss out on your own life."
+
Who would have thought that the three concubines knelt on the ground with a plop: "Madam, please don't drive us away, we are determined to follow you for the rest of our lives."
+
The newly appointed county magistrate frowned: "I want to marry Zheng Chuyun, it's not appropriate for you to follow me."
+
The three concubines said: "How about the county master consider us, buy one and get three free!"
+
Zhou Yunsheng and Zheng Chuyun: "Reject!"
+
Purpose: To establish a new view of the era that women should be self-reliant
