Dayong had strict rules on women, but it was not until the emperor's generation that he relaxed a lot.

But only women can walk around in the streets, and unmarried men and women can meet before marriage if accompanied by someone, unlike the blind marriages during the late emperor's time.

A wealthy family would invite the master to teach the girls in the family.

It was never the first time for women to go to school.

The man said sadly to Luo Xi who parked the car and walked out: "A man and a woman are in the same room, aren't you ruining the girl's family name? You are so confused, King Zhen."

Luo Xi glanced at this person, oh, I remembered, the newly appointed Minister of Rites, she opened her mouth and said:

"Is it no honor for men and women to live in the same room?"

"Why do I remember that in my early years, in order to enter the Ministry of Rites, I sent my wife to my superior's home for three days? Do you still have a reputation?"

The Minister of Etiquette's face suddenly turned red and then turned pale. His hands were trembling and he couldn't say a complete sentence. He didn't expect that Luo Xi knew so clearly what happened twenty years ago.

In front of her colleagues, Luo Xi was completely embarrassed, but Luo Xi didn't think it was enough, so she asked, "Is the son yours or your old superior's?"

The Minister of Rites fainted with a puff!

Luo Xi then looked back and said to everyone: "A woman's lack of talent is virtue. I remember correctly. This saying is that if a woman has no talent, virtue makes up for it."

“When did it become a quote that depresses women?”

Everyone chatted and did not dare to speak out if they had different opinions.

Luo Xi looked at the road in front of her, "Since everyone is here, let's go into our city's academy and have a look."

Everyone was indeed interested in what the woman was learning in the academy. After hearing this, they all got out of the car and followed Luo Xi on foot.

Soon, as we entered the main road, we saw a large building with a small building in the east and west, and a large open space in the middle to separate the east and west.

The sound of reading aloud came from inside.

Luo Xi led everyone to the small building on the east side. Through the window, she could see that there were girls aged ten to fourteen sitting inside. There were not many girls, ten people in total.

The classroom was very quiet, with an old man dressed as a doctor sitting at the top, and the girls were checking each other's pulses.

Someone asked out of curiosity: "Who are they?"

The doctor nodded slightly and greeted Luo Xi. Luo Xi led the people away before saying, "The girls in this classroom are all studying medicine."

In this era, it has become a tradition that craftsmanship is passed on to women rather than to men. Some people wonder, "What do women do to study medicine? Can they still sit in the clinic and see doctors?"

Luo Xi led people to the next room and said, "Why can't we see a doctor? For some female diseases or delivery, female doctors are used."

"As long as you learn a craft, you won't have to worry about it being useless."

Luo Xi took them to visit the entire small building. Some were studying medicine, some were studying planting, music and even weapons manufacturing...

When we reached the second floor, someone suddenly exclaimed, "Isn't that the great scholar of Nan'an Prefecture, Mr. Yu Hu, inside?"

Mr. Yu Hu, who was over sixty years old, was Luo Xi's teacher. He followed the instructions and said something to the students and walked out of the classroom.

"Young prince, come over today when you are free."

Seeing the other party coming out, someone immediately asked in confusion: "Mr. Yu Hu, you are not in Nan'an Mansion, why did you come to Yingzhou to teach?"

They were still teaching a group of girls. The person who asked the question did not dare to say the following words.

Mr. Yu Hu stroked his beard and smiled, "Of course it is for Xiyun City's contribution." He said it very frankly.

Everyone already knew the purpose of contribution points on the way here, so someone asked, "What do you do to earn contribution points? Will you settle down in Xiyun City from now on?"

Mr. Yu Hu's reputation had already spread throughout the world during the reign of the late Emperor, and everyone respected this great Confucian.

He also did not shy away from talking about his purpose, "Earning contribution points is naturally in exchange for reading time in the cultural building."

"Humans, live and learn!"

Luo Xi not only founded an academy in the city, but also put the unique classics collected from all over Dayong and the future knowledge transcribed by terminals into the cultural building for people to read.

The cultural building is five stories high. You can read any books on the first and second floors. On the third floor and above, there are martial arts secret books or various formula drawings, etc...

If you want to read it, you can only exchange your contribution points for reading time.

When Luo Xi came back this time, she put the books collected from several families in Penglai into the cabinet.

This reason can help Xiyun City recruit and attract a large number of useful talents, including powerful people like Mr. Yu Hu.

After hearing the whole story, everyone was speechless for a while. They didn't know whether they had more disdain and disapproval, or more envy and sourness. In short, they had mixed feelings!

"It's nothing. I'm going back first. The students are waiting."

Luo Xi nodded, "You can go back and continue your work!"

After leaving the east classroom, Luo Xi took people for a walk to the west.

Through the window, they saw the boys who were obviously more active inside, and everyone finally realized something was strange.

It turned out that in this academy men and women were taught separately, unlike what they imagined, men and women were in the same room, and everyone was relieved a lot!

Luo Xi did not explain too much. Changing the inherent and outdated thinking requires a gradual process.

She will not ask the ancients to get rid of the dregs and promote equality between men and women just because she has predicted the future five hundred years.

That would only make her an outlier among the crowd, and she would be extremely ostracized by the people.

Her purpose is to teach girls culture and awaken their self-awareness. Women do not only have to marry and have children.

Even after getting married, you can't just hang around men and children!

She leads the troops in battles, ranks first in the success of the court, and adopts a relatively gentle method of separate teaching for men and women, and a certain scholarship incentive method...

Xiyun Cheng's parents were the first to realize the many benefits of girls studying. In the future, she will spread this to Yingzhou and even Dayong.

After leaving the college, Luo Xi saw that everyone was in good spirits. After asking for everyone's opinions, she took them to the factory to have a look.

The current main research directions of the factory are farming equipment and war weapons.

It was getting late, and after sending the minister back to the post house, she took her cousin into the palace to stay temporarily.

"..."

With Dayong officials arriving first, people from the five countries continued to arrive in the next month.

The team leader was basically an old face familiar to Luo Xi, and he led the people to visit the city and settle in as usual.

During this period, many business projects were concluded with several countries.

Everything that could be sold to Luo Xi was sold, including Xiyun City's specialty rapeseed oil, glass, vehicles, and various foods, such as newly developed instant noodles, self-heating food, shelf-stable soy products, etc...

Every day you can hear the wonderful sound of large sums of money coming into your account!

"..."

January 1

One year has passed and a new year has begun.

This day is not only Dayong's New Year's Day, but also the wedding day of Luo Xi and Lu Yunjin.

Early in the morning, every household spontaneously hangs up red lanterns, children put on new clothes, and spontaneously send blessings to the leader of their camp, who is also the Dinghai Shenzhen.

In the palace of the King of Zhen, the old father and several uncles were busy in the palace.

Sometimes I check the gift list, sometimes I count the betrothal gifts...

You heard it right, it’s a betrothal gift. Who asked the magistrate of Lu to not only marry a wife but also to marry into the family?

Looking at Luo Jiufeng who couldn't stop busy, the head of the Nalan family wondered, "Why did this child become a child?"

Luo Jiufeng: "No! I'm not nervous!"
