In ancient times, there was no word for fianc é e. In ancient times, if the parents of both parties agreed and they shared the birth chart, even if they had already agreed, it was only natural for them to marry in court. The term 'fianc é e' did not appear in ancient times, and unmarried wives were generally referred to as unmarried mothers or future daughters in law.
The ancient title of 'wife'
In ancient times, there were two ways to adDRESS one's wife: internally and externally. Externally, one's wife could be referred to as "lowly wife", "humble wife", "mountain wife", "inner wife", etc; Internally, that is, to family members or one's own wife, they can be called "wife", "mother", "madam", and so on.
For example, the title 'Madam' is now used by everyone, but in ancient times it could only be used by nobles and ministers. After the Han Dynasty, the official title for the wives of nobles and ministers was' Madam ', and sometimes the emperor would also give titles to the mothers or wives of noble officials, calling them' Gao Ming Madam '.
