A piece of **, a piece of history.
The late Qing Dynasty left a lot of old **, which can let us see the state of Chinese society more than 100 years ago.
Today I will continue to take you to see these precious historical elders, including the last emperor and queen of the late Qing Dynasty, the small-footed women of the late Qing Dynasty, the landlord wife of the late Qing Dynasty and so on.
In the late Qing Dynasty, a plump woman was showing off her three-inch golden lotus.
In ancient Chinese aesthetic concepts, the so-called feminine beauty is to reflect their "feminine" side, that is, petite, weak, demure and to have soft curves. From the perspective of "small", the small mouth of cherries, the face of melon seeds, and the thin waist of willow are all characteristics of feminine beauty, and the feet are no exception.
The purpose of foot binding is to limit the growth of the foot, and to bend the grown foot, so the age of foot binding is naturally the smaller the better, the smaller the foot, the softer the easier it is to wrap the foot, but too early to wrap the foot, and I am afraid that it will not walk after the foot is wrapped, and I am afraid that she is too young to bear the pain, so it is generally after the woman can walk before starting to wrap the foot.
In China, even if you are born at the age of one, the average time you will walk is three years old.
Let the feet develop for a year, and when they are four or five years old, some people begin to wrap their feet, and four or five years old is actually only three or four years old according to Western algorithms. Different customs vary from place to place, and the age at which the feet are bound is also different.
Foot binding is a product of the oppression of women in feudal society. As the "Daughter's Sutra" says: "I am afraid that he (she) will walk out of the door lightly and be bound by a thousand entanglements." ”

Poppy was cultivated in the late Qing Dynasty. In 1859, the Qing court promulgated the "Regulations on the Collection of Taxes on Native Medicines" to encourage the people to plant and increase taxes.
At least in the seventh year of Yongzheng (1729), the Yongzheng Emperor promulgated the "Regulations on Punishing the Sale of Opium Tobacco and the Opening of Tobacco Houses" and the "Decree on Prohibiting the Sale of Opium and Opening Tobacco Houses", which is considered to be the world's first ban on opium, and many emperors have been emphasizing the prohibition of smoking since then.
However, in the late Qing Dynasty, due to British dumping, a large number of losses were lost, and it was difficult to return, so they began to encourage the cultivation of domestic opium. In 1885, the Qing court stipulated that "foreign medicine" should be taxed at 86 taels of silver per 100 catties, while only 60 taels were levied on "local medicine".
For a time, poppies bloomed everywhere. The amount of domestically produced opium was about 50,000 boxes in 1866 and 70,000 boxes in 1870, surpassing the amount of imported foreign tobacco. By the 80s of the 19th century, the total amount of domestically produced opium was two to four times that of imported opium.
After Cixi forcibly promoted the opium monopoly throughout the country, China's opium cultivation and ** were even more prosperous. In 1868, the main opium tax of the Qing Dynasty was 2427631 taels, and by 1905, it had soared to 6548349 taels. But at the same time, in 1909, about 25 million people in the country were addicted to smoking, and more than 70 percent of adult males were smoking opium.
