What does the first palace mean? What do you mean by beating your wife?

The wife is Yuan Pei, that is, the first wife, who is the host and hostess, and has a high status. Although a flat wife is also called a wife, her status is similar to that of a concubine, only a little higher than that of a concubine.

The so-called flat wife, often in businessmen's homes, is absolutely not allowed to appear in large families. If there is a flat wife, it will be chaotic and humble, which is the beginning of family decline. Ancient businessmen bought and sold industries in many places, and they all needed reliable people to manage them. If you are reliable, you are your own pillow person, but you can't let a concubine like a handmaiden take care of it. At this time, the flat wife appeared, and the businessman brought an extra wife to help them manage the industry.

Although both wife and flat wife carry the word wife, their actual status is quite different. In ancient times, the most important thing was to be modest. Only the first wife can be called Yuan Pei's wife. After that, they were all concubines, just handmaiden with a better life. Although the flat wife was also married by the French media, it is far from the real wife, only a little better than the concubine room.

First of all, only the wife is the master, and she is second only to the husband. A flat wife may also have some housekeeping power, but it is definitely not as good as a real wife. When the wife is present, all concubines should salute their wives, including flat wives, and also salute their wives. At most, a flat wife doesn't have to wait on her wife all the time like a concubine's room, and set rules around the first room. Even after the death of Yuan Pei's wife, the married first room should pay tribute to Yuan Pei's ranking, not to mention an ordinary wife.

After the death of the first wife, the flat wife can't be upright and the husband will marry the first wife. A child born to a wife is a stepchild, and a child born to a flat wife can also be called a stepchild, but there are still differences between them.
