Chapter 179 Women Can Also Read
At this time, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted loudly: "Miss Jiang, when will the academy start recruiting students? My little boy is clamoring to study all day long!" The person who spoke sounded quite anxious, as if he was very concerned about whether his child could successfully enroll.
"Enrollment will begin tomorrow," Jiang Xue replied. "We will post an enrollment notice in Jiangjia Village, so everyone can keep an eye out for it. In addition, we will also send people to various villages to promote the program. We hope everyone will come to support our academy."
Jiang Xue was very happy seeing the enthusiasm of the villagers.
She continued, "The construction of the academy cannot be separated from everyone's support. In the future, children in every village will be able to read and write in the academy, learn knowledge and develop skills."
The villagers nodded one after another, their faces filled with joy.
At this time, an old man came over, took Jiang Xue's hand and said, "Miss Jiang, you are really the benefactor of our village! In the past, the children in our village had nowhere to go if they wanted to study. Now that we have the academy, they will definitely have a bright future."
Jiang Xue smiled and said, "Uncle, this is what I should do. I believe that as long as we all work together, the village will definitely get better and better."
Jiang Xue chatted with the villagers for a while, then said goodbye to them. She returned to the carriage and continued her conversation with Jiang Wanrou.
"You are really great!" Jiang Wanrou praised sincerely, "You built roads and founded a school, giving the children in the village the opportunity to study. I believe they will be grateful to you."
Jiang Xue raised her lips slightly, revealing a faint smile, and said softly: "This is not just my own achievement, it is also thanks to everyone's support and joint efforts. I hope that through these things, our village will develop better and better."
She paused, then added, "I didn't actually think about making them feel grateful to me. I just simply thought it would be great if they could live a better life."
Jiang Wanrou, who was standing by, nodded in agreement and exclaimed, "This road is really not bumpy at all! This cement is simply amazing! Xueer, how did you do it?" Jiang Wanrou's face was full of curiosity at this moment.
Facing her friend's question, Jiang Xue chuckled again and replied, "In fact, there are many resources around us that can be used, but they are often ignored because people don't understand them. As long as you dare to try and explore, you will be able to turn all seemingly impossible things into reality!"
The teachers in the first few carriages were deeply shocked by Jiang Xue's insights on women's education. They had not yet fully recovered from the previous conversation.
They had never seen a woman studying, let alone thought that it was so important for women to receive education.
However, Jiang Xue's words were like a spring breeze, opening a new door for them.
They began to reflect on their own educational concepts and realized that education is not just the privilege of men, but women also have the right to pursue knowledge and wisdom.
Although these teachers lived in an environment with strong traditional concepts, they were all people who loved education and were eager to impart knowledge.
They know very well that the purpose of education is to cultivate people with moral integrity and talent, not just to pass on the family's reputation.
An elderly teacher stroked his beard and spoke slowly: "Miss Jiang, what you just said is really thought-provoking. Although we are teachers, we have never really thought about the importance of women's education."
Another middle-aged teacher took over the conversation: "Yes, we are always bound by traditional concepts, thinking that women only need to learn some basic knitting and needlework, and do not need to study in depth. But today, after listening to Miss Jiang's words, I know that women can also bring honor to the family by studying, and even make contributions to the country."
Another young teacher said excitedly: "I have never seen women studying, but today I feel that my vision is too narrow. Women also have wisdom and talent, and they should have the same educational opportunities as us men."
The older teacher nodded in agreement: "Yes, education should be equal to that of men and women, and should only value talent and morality. As teachers, we should break the old conventions and provide women with equal opportunities to receive education."
"Brother Shen, what do you think about this matter?" Zhong Ziqi turned to look at Shen Sitong who was sitting next to him, with a hint of expectation in his eyes.
Shen Sitong smiled slightly and said modestly: "Miss Jiang's opinion really makes me feel inferior. Let Brother Liu express his opinion!"
Liu Yujie was still a little confused at this time. After hearing Shen Sitong's words, he quickly responded: "I have never heard such a brilliant statement. Brother Shen is right. I am also deeply ashamed."
Everyone's eyes immediately focused on Yang Siqi, who was standing aside. He closed his eyes tightly, as if trying to avoid the topic. However, he could not escape everyone's gaze, so he could only sigh helplessly.
Yang Siqi slowly opened his eyes. Facing the expectant gazes of the crowd, he knew he could no longer escape. He took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and then slowly spoke:
"I was really touched by Ms. Jiang's insights. We have always been bound by traditional ideas, believing that women only need to stay at home to take care of their husbands and children and do not need to get involved in academic studies. However, Ms. Jiang's words today made me realize how narrow my thinking is."
He paused and continued, "Women also have wisdom and talent, and they should have the same educational opportunities as men. This is not only a respect for them, but also a responsibility to the entire society. Women's education can not only help them grow themselves, but also cultivate more virtuous and talented people for their families and the country."
As soon as Yang Siqi finished speaking, voices of approval rang out in the carriage. Shen Sitong and Liu Yujie also nodded, expressing their agreement with Yang Siqi's point of view.
"Brother Yang is right," Shen Sitong added. "We should abandon past prejudices and create a fair and just learning environment for girls. In this way, our village and our country will be more prosperous."
Liu Yujie also echoed: "Yes, we should support Miss Jiang's views and contribute our own efforts to women's education."
Zhong Ziqi felt very relieved when he saw that everyone had the same attitude.
The carriage slowly arrived at the gate of the college in Jiangjia Village after two quarters of an hour. The magnificent plaque of "Baichuan College" was hung high, shining brightly under the sunlight.
The entire college building is very modern, combining traditional and modern elements, making the entire campus both solemn and vibrant.
The teachers were very curious about this novel architectural style and stopped to watch and discuss it.
Bai Yufeng was waiting at the door for Jiang Xue's return.
