Su Wan frowned slightly when he heard this: "You mean, this girls' school can't be run?"
Li Lin closed the book and ran his fingers down the edge of the book: "If you want to set up a school for girls and teach them some skills so that they can live a better life, it would be feasible."
"It's just that you want to change the inherent ideas of women in female schools and let them pursue equal status. It is actually very difficult. I don't quite agree with you doing these things."
Su Wan was even more puzzled: "Why?"
Li Lin raised his eyes and asked her: "Do you know who made this rule?"
Su Wan shook his head, and then listened to what he said: "The words of sages, the teachings of the ages, the laws of the country, and the rules of thousands of families. People in the world follow the example of the sages, listen carefully to the words of the ancients, abide by the laws of the country, and abide by the rules of the family."
"These rules were formed bit by bit over time from about the very beginning of ethics to the present day."
"This has been the general trend of ethics and education in the world from ancient times to the present. If you jump out and teach them that men and women are equal, their country will not agree, their family will not agree, and their parents will not agree."
"You let them have this idea, and they pursued it boldly, but now that the world's thinking is like this, others cannot accept it, and they will live in a more difficult environment, with people around them pointing fingers, Criticize it from head to toe.”
"You say she doesn't respect etiquette and is not a good woman. She cannot marry such a person. She has been driven out by her family all her life and has no husband to rely on. How do you expect her to survive in this world?"
"I'm afraid that even if they die, they won't be able to make a splash."
"In the end, they will be suppressed and repeat their previous fate. They may even resent you for encouraging them to do such a thing, which has harmed them for the rest of their lives. They think you are a sinner."
Su Wan also knew that this matter was difficult. She could not compare with the sages, she could not let them rise up and resist without fear of the world, and she could not even arrange a future for them, because in this world, if a woman goes too far, the person seeking marriage may They would all avoid them one after another, and there were some who didn't care, but there were too few.
They might not survive.
Even modern society was formed after various struggles.
At that time, the feudal court was weak and was bullied by other countries. Western ideas poured in. Because the country was weak at that time, people yearned for the West, so they reformed and reformed, overthrowing feudal oppression, pursuing equality, emancipating the mind, liberating women, and so on.
After going through a lot, I reached the state of this world.
If you were to promote equality between men and women in a peaceful feudal society, countless people would probably jump out to scold you, stop you, and kill you.
Su Wan thought for a while and then fell silent.
"Madam~" He reached out and held her in his arms, "Don't think of this matter so simply."
Overthrowing this etiquette and changing the world's thinking can't be achieved without hard work for hundreds of years, and it also requires luck and a leader who can take the lead and be respected by women in the world.
Perhaps in a long, long time, such an era will indeed come, but it will definitely not be now, and he believes that even one day, there will not be absolute equality.
In this world, men and women have to reproduce and have children. Marriage is inevitable. If children are equal and the family property is equally divided, then whoever supports their parents will have to live in the same place. Isn’t this a mess?
This is a day of endless chaos.
Furthermore, the world attaches great importance to the inheritance of blood and incense. A man inherits his father's surname and inheritance, and passes it on from generation to generation. As long as the bloodline is still there, thousands of years later, there will be descendants to worship him, and he will still have a name and surname, no matter what surname he has. What are the names of our ancestors?
If you are waiting for a girl to get married, the girl will remember it, and the grandchildren's generation will probably remember it. In the next generation, the bloodline will be estranged, and no one will remember who you are. After decades or hundreds of years, no one will care about the grass on the grave.
Maybe because it took up a lot of land, the grave was dug out for you and thrown aside, and no one took care of it.
If there are still descendants of the family and someone comes forward and says that this is the ancestral grave of our ancestors, my ancestors are buried here and are not allowed to be touched, naturally no one dares to touch it, not even the ancestors who are seven or eight generations away. question.
But if you say that this is the tomb of my grandmother’s maternal ancestors several generations ago, you are from another family, and you don’t know how many generations have passed, so it counts.
Therefore, many reasons such as marriage, inheritance of children, disparity in military force, etc. have resulted in the dominance of men over women between men and women.
Perhaps from the beginning, in the game between men and women, when a woman lost the marriage and married into her husband's family to reproduce, this outcome was destined.
Over time, thousands or even tens of thousands of years have passed, and men have taken the power to dominate ethics and require women to exist in the way they want.
Su Wan's lips moved and she asked tentatively: "You really can't do it?"
Li Lin smiled: "If Madam wants to do it, it's not impossible, but I'm afraid she won't be able to bear it."
He had always known that she was a kind and gentle girl, and he didn't want her to endure this.
"Regardless of the change of dynasties or the change of ideas, there will always be bloodshed. Corpses are everywhere and bones are in graves, no matter who wins or loses." Li Lin felt her body tremble and pursed his lips and smiled, "And if Madam leads this , I’m afraid I have to be prepared to leave this name for eternity.”
Su Wan looked up at him with some disbelief: "Is your name going to last forever?"
He groaned and patted his thigh with the book in his hand: "If you succeed, you will be famous forever and be praised by future generations. If you fail, you will be infamy for thousands of years and be reviled by future generations."
The corner of Su Wan's mouth twitched, and she reached out to pinch him. He smiled, and then said: "Although I probably won't be able to help you, if you fail, I can save your life."
Probably because he is a man, he knows the inequality between men and women, but he cannot empathize with him and feel how painful it is to be oppressed. In his opinion, in this world, being able to have enough food, clothing and clothing to live well is already enough. The greatest luck.
If you have the spare time and energy, you might as well take care of the clans that were oppressed by the overwhelming power of the Western Wei Dynasty and make the people live a better life, or think about building bridges and embankments, clearing wasteland for farming, and researching new varieties of food. Keep people fed.
As for these things, to him, they are really troublesome and meaningless, and he doesn't know how many years of effort it will take to do them. He can't guarantee that they will be successful.
Moreover, his identity does not allow him to do such a thing. Not to mention the affairs of other countries, most of his own subordinates are men, and because he has been through life and death, he probably cannot force them to return home. I also have to argue with my wife about how men and women can be equal, and we have to cook together.
To put it more lightly, his wife can live a good life as long as he protects her. What other people have to do with him? He can't care about whether they have enough to eat or what they think in their heads.
Just to hold on after eating enough.
