Chapter 818 Honored
"Wen Zhang, you really misunderstood Miss Shen Liu in this matter." Old Qi was very responsible. He immediately stood next to Shen Qingqian and smiled at Mr. Yun in the audience. "It was indeed my idea to establish a girls' school."
Yun Ji, whose courtesy name was Wenzhang, devoted his life to collecting, organizing and restoring various rare ancient books. He had unique insights into classics such as "The Great Learning", "The Doctrine of the Mean" and "The Spring and Autumn Annals".
But Yun Ji had a minor flaw: he was very stubborn. Once he made up his mind, no one could change it even with ten oxen.
When Qi Hongjun said this, Yun Ji's expression changed. After a moment, he said coldly, "Since I promised you to teach at Qingyun Academy, I will not break my promise. As for other matters, I will not accompany you!"
After saying that, he retreated to the corner of the classroom and never spoke again.
Qi Hongjun shook his head secretly, but his face showed no emotion. He only said to Shen Qingqian, "Thank you for your hard work, Sixth Miss. The training of the teachers in the female school will be handed over to you."
Shen Qingqian nodded, "Mr. Qi, you are too kind. It is my honor to contribute to the girls' school."
Her goal was achieved. As long as everyone understood why Qingyun Academy offered a girls' school, then it was worth it for her to be questioned by Mr. Yun today.
With Yunji's reputation, I believe this matter will spread throughout Ezhou soon. By then, more people will know that Qingyun Academy in northern Hubei has opened a girls' school, and among them may be future students of the girls' school.
Qi Hongjun encouraged all the teachers and then let everyone disperse according to the previous arrangements.
On Shen Qingqian's side, there were not many teachers in the girls' school, so they conducted training in a small classroom.
"Sixth Miss, what you just said is absolutely right!" As soon as a famous woman came in, she quickly walked to the podium, stood in front of Shen Qingqian, and looked at her with sparkling eyes full of admiration.
This person is Mrs. Hu, who is in charge of the cooking class for girls.
"Mrs. Hu, please forgive me. I was just telling you a few truths." Shen Qingqian pursed her lips and smiled faintly, not taking it seriously.
This concept has been deeply rooted in people's minds in modern times. Many women have truly achieved the goal of "women hold up half the sky". They are even constantly working hard to fight for more equal treatment for women in society.
Unfortunately, the women of the Jin Dynasty were still trapped in the harem, bound by countless dogmas.
Mrs. Hu shook her head. "No, I deeply understand what Sixth Miss said. If I hadn't been a culinary expert, my mother and I would have starved to death after my late husband passed away eight years ago."
Mrs. Hu's original surname was Lin. She was deeply in love with her late husband. After her husband's death, Mrs. Hu insisted on taking his surname, refused her brother's repeated matchmaking attempts, and vowed never to marry again.
Seeing this, her parents gradually became unwilling to let her live with the child at home, and the mother and child were kicked out not long after.
Mrs. Hu felt like the sky was falling, so she took her child to the city of northern Hubei, where she happened to meet a wealthy family looking for a cook.
She had some talent in cooking, and the Hu family had previously run a small restaurant, so she had developed a good skill. She was kept on the first day she entered the mansion, and from then on, the mother and son had a place to live.
But after all these things happened, Mrs. Hu realized that no one could have it as well as she did, so she looked for every opportunity to practice her cooking skills and showed off her skills at many banquets held by that family. Gradually, her good cooking skills spread.
After a few years, she had saved a lot of money from the tips from the host and some guests, plus her monthly salary. She decisively resigned and opened a small restaurant.
Relying on her own skills, she gained a foothold in Hubei City and was able to send her son to school.
When she heard Shen Qingqian's words, she thought of herself and the millions of women in this world who were helpless.
"I'm moving tomorrow, so there should only be one chapter today and tomorrow. You guys can save it for a few days and read it later."
