On the island, pregnant women enjoy many privileges and benefits.
The death penalty is not applicable to pregnant women. This is the most basic. If they commit other crimes, the sentence will be halved.
Everything that can be bought on the island is discounted by 70% for pregnant women.
There is no need to work, and the monthly fixed "salary" for pregnant women is above the average of various industries on the island.
If a pregnant woman owes a debt, if it is a private debt, 30% can be exempted, and the government fine can be fully exempted.
Anyone who harms a pregnant woman, except military personnel and children, will be subject to the severest punishment, or even be expelled from the island.
...and so on
As for some more basic benefits, such as prenatal check-ups, caesarean sections, and postpartum recovery are all free of charge. If the pregnant woman has a husband, then the husband of the pregnant woman can also Enjoy thirty days of paid paternity leave.
These benefits have made countless men red-eyed with envy, screaming to the sky in the silent nights, only hating themselves for not being a woman! Why didn’t my uterus grow on me?
With this series of benefits, there are very few women who don’t want to get pregnant - almost none.
In order to get pregnant quickly, someone once had sex with five men in broad daylight, one of whom was forced. The man went to the police angrily, hoping to deal with the crazy woman quickly, but the answer he received was... no answer.
As we all know, the definition of rape is the crime of forcing a woman to have sex, and men cannot be victims.
And this woman was not punished in any way except for a small deduction of lost wages.
Of course, there are always exceptions to everything.
Among a hundred women, about twenty or thirty are unable and unwilling to enjoy these benefits.
"In order to fight zombies, I took a lot of drugs to delay menstruation. My current body can't get pregnant at all! My strength is no worse than men, and I do more work than them. Why can't I get equal pay for equal work?"
"I deeply sympathize with your experience." The person in charge of the base said: "I suggest that you can work Go to the hospital for a checkup and take care of your health. You are still very young and you will definitely have a chance to become a mother."
"I watched a pregnant woman being cut open alive! There is a shadow, and I am so scared that I can’t sleep when I think about there being a life in my belly!”
The person in charge responded as above.
“I am already forty-two years old and suffer from chronic diseases. I am no longer fit to have children. My mother is also seventy-one and she has to work twelve hours a day. We really can’t bear it! You guys It’s a decision made in one’s head, can you consider us?”
Base person in charge: "At least you survived this catastrophe and have enough food and clothing every day. Compared with those people outside, you are already very lucky, aren't you?"
In what time? A few months ago, women from Kochi led hundreds of people to go on strike in protest. , she stood on a high place, holding a trumpet and shouting at the top of her lungs:
"You are discriminating! It is oppression! Do women only have reproductive value in your eyes? Our minds are not inferior to men, and we can also Contribute to rebuilding your homeland! Is it just because of me? Do we deserve these unfair treatments because we have a uterus?”
“We don’t want benefits! Equal pay for equal work!”
Hundreds of fighter jets were flying overhead. All the leaders of the base are here, One of them came up, stood next to the woman, and said to her in a very gentle voice: "I am here to answer your questions. I think many people below want to hear my answer. So can you lend me your microphone? ”
The woman handed over the microphone.
He took the microphone and asked a question first.
“What do you think is the most important thing in life?”
The answers are varied. In the end, he gave a summary: “It is survival. If you can’t even survive, then everything will be lost. It’s empty talk.”
“I believe that everyone is here for one purpose – to survive.”
"This lady said it very well. Of course, the value of women is not limited to giving birth to children. China's five thousand years of history and its two hundred years of modern history have recognized the excellence of women.
I also strongly agree with a point of view, A person's ability cannot be distinguished by gender. So, back to the original point, what is the fundamental difference between men and women?
I think there is only one thing, and that is that human beings will be born from women’s wombs. If there are no women in this world, life will not be able to continue, and human beings will perish.”
He handed the microphone to his side! The woman: "Do you agree with this?"
The woman said: "I agree, but..."
The word "but" was lost in the wind
"And this is the greatness of women. Although I have not experienced the pain of childbirth, I have seen it with my own eyes. I know that for all mankind, In other words, your existence is destined to pay more than men.
We all know that the next generation is the hope of mankind, and you can give birth to hope. Men, you are greater and tougher than men!”
“Now we have reached a critical moment of life and death for all mankind, and this provides an absolutely safe area for everyone, and our soldiers guard it with their own flesh and blood. Here, survival is the first priority.
The second priority is reproduction. ”
He put it to the woman's mouth again: "Do you think reproduction is important?"
The woman was silent for a long time, and in the end she could only utter two words.
“Important.”
The person in charge smiled faintly: “Great women reproduce life, and men, to put it more simply, besides sowing seeds, all they can do is protect everyone. "Safety"
Under Immediately, a voice shouted: "Great things are left to great people. I'm sorry, as a woman, I am not that great. I want to be like a man. Don't I have the right to choose freely?" "Very good." Sorry, we can't.
In peacetime, I respect every woman's right to make free choices, but when the apocalypse comes, there is not much room for human choice.
We all have a consensus, that is, the risk of childbirth for women is much higher than that for men. Without these regulations, how many people would be willing to get pregnant and have children? "
Another person said: "But with such strict regulations, what do you do to women who have lost their fertility? ! "
The person in charge said: "Both men and women have the ability to have children, but some women are unable to give birth. This is equivalent to losing their own reproductive value, so they have to use other values to make up for it. This is fair. ”
So the struggle and negotiation ended.
The world is so cruel. It seems that you have many choices, but in fact there is no way out.
Chongdao is such a place, it is both heaven and hell.
Even though many people talk about "getting out of this damn place", not many people actually leave.
At least I can survive here and live with more dignity than outside.
...
About a month later, everyone in the Lijingyuan Survival Team received a bill.
If you have a mobile phone, it will be displayed on your mobile phone, and if you don’t have a mobile phone, it will also be displayed on the big screen downstairs.
The bill shows how much everyone pays for rent, water and electricity, and how much they get paid for a day's work.
Name: Bai Xiaobai
Position: Nurse in a tertiary hospital in District B,
Should have been on duty: 360 hours
Actual time on duty: 228 hours
Reward due: 10,800 yuan
Deduction for unsatisfactory attendance: 6,600 yuan
Deduction of rent, water and electricity: 2508 yuan
Deduction of living expenses: 1852 yuan
Deduction of daily necessities: 158 yuan
Remainder: 2 yuan
Bai Xiaobai Looking at the last two dollars on the bill, I couldn't laugh or cry.
If Bai Xiaobai couldn't laugh or cry, then Guan Minghui couldn't even cry.
Bai Xiaobai had at least two yuan left, but Guan Minghui didn't have any money left, and still owed more than eight hundred yuan.
As for Shen Bijun and Lin Shiyin, one is worse than the other
It goes without saying that Shen Bijun owes money. In addition, there are also complaints due to absence from work, substandard work, and For other reasons, the debt has reached more than 50,000.
Lin Shiyin is a little better. She miraculously reaches full attendance, and her living expenses and rent are the lowest. Normally, even if her salary for cleaning toilets is low, she should have 1,800 yuan left, but She was still in debt.
Because she has a son.
Xiao Yun is about to turn one year old, so he is definitely not allowed to be taken to work. There is a special place for babysitting on the island, and the babysitting fee is 9,600 per month. However, it is free for newborns, free for pregnant mothers, and free for mothers pregnant with three or more children.
By the way, when personal debt reaches more than 1.5 million, men have to work in the hardest farmland from morning to night, while women are slightly better off, and they are nothing more than working in shelters. One does simple manual work.
It is the kind of "shelter" that loses human rights.
These single women were in a state of gloom, but the pregnant women in the team were filled with surprises.
They didn't have to do anything this month, they just ate, drank, and walked around with nothing to do. When they looked at their bills at the end of the month, the least they had was more than 2,000 yuan left!
As for those who have just given birth, they also receive a maternity reward. After deducting rent, food and other expenses, they still have two to three thousand left.
In comparison, it is indeed easy for people to have the idea of getting pregnant immediately.
Bai Xiaobai is still gritting his teeth and holding on, while Guan Minghui is already looking for men on the street who are enjoying a leisurely holiday!
Pick a good-looking one, knock it out and drag it into the grass. Once everything is done, come twice a day and you won’t have to worry about not being able to turn around next month!
"Sister Lin, what do you think of the one in front of you? I think he looks very much like your old friend!" Guan Minghui weighed the stick in his hand and swallowed: "If you don't like it, then I will do it first Come on!”
Lin Shiyin stopped her in a hurry.
"He doesn't look like my friend, he is my friend!"
He seemed to have noticed something, and turned his head and glanced this way.
Guan Minghui hurriedly put away the stick.
"His name is... Sheng Yayu? Leng Buding is not in a wheelchair, so he didn't recognize him."
