His Royal Highness, he is plotting against me

Chapter 197 New Ethnology
Sun's uncle's family treated their siblings very well, although they were not so caring, they had food and drink, and never treated them badly.

Her mother's dowry was also taken back, so she was able to continue sending her brother to school.

But that injury still caused lifelong damage to the younger brother, who suffered hearing loss in his left ear.

Sun's heart hated her father and stepmother.

She stayed at her uncle's house for four years and was reluctant to marry. It was not until her brother was 14 years old that he was chosen by the old patriarch's wife and hired as the eldest daughter-in-law.

Sun lived up to expectations, was straightforward and generous externally, filial to her in-laws internally, loving her younger siblings, and none of the sisters-in-law disapproved of her.

When the old patriarch's wife left, she held Mrs. Sun's hand and handed over the family to her.

Of course, she has never dealt with her grandfather again for decades.

Grandfather had approached their siblings a few times, saying that it was because his son was involved in gambling and owed a huge amount of gambling debts, and he wanted to borrow some money from them.

Instead of looking for Mrs. Sun, he found his younger brother who was married and had a son.

But isn't Sun's younger brother a fool?
If it wasn't for his sister and uncle who saved him and let him lie in the woodshed, he would be either deaf or a corpse now.

Want to give money to the enemy's son to pay off his gambling debts?
Sun's younger brother thought it was very funny. Isn't their father a fool?
Later, grandpa was overworked and died of illness. The mother and son didn't even prepare a thin coffin for him, but prepared to dig a pit for him to bury him after wrapping it in a straw mat.

It was the Sun brothers and sisters who paid for him to be buried in a grand manner, which can be regarded as a complete favor for them.

Chen Fulin didn't expect that Mrs. Sun would have such a bumpy life. She and Mrs. Chen's aura is very similar, and they both have a sense of stability in this world.

But Sun's body is a bit sharper than her mother's, which is probably the experience of her youth.

Chatting and chatting, the restraint on the table slowly disappeared.

After finishing their lunch, Jin Yun brought someone to remove the leftovers from the table, and replaced them with tea and snacks.

Chen Fulin heard many stories from several people, and he admired these female relatives very much in his heart.

They are all very ordinary rural women, but each has its own greatness.

Some are still calm despite suffering, and some are weak but always like to help others.

Therefore, people should not be judged by the rich or the poor. How many people have a lot of money, but they have lost even the most basic conscience of being a human being.

Some people know that they have been extremely difficult, but they can't see the suffering of others in this world.

This also strengthened Chen Fulin's mind. She was willing to try to believe in these aunts who had lived half their lives and had ditches in their chests.

"I told the old patriarch earlier that I wanted to start a women's school in the clan, but I haven't found a suitable person. I don't know how many aunts are willing to help me?"

Mrs. Sun was stunned: "Open a girls' school?"

Give them?
Sun and several female family members looked at each other in blank dismay.

Chen Fulin smiled and nodded: "Exactly. After seeing all the aunts, I am more determined to open a women's school in the clan, so that the girls in the clan can be as literate as men, and teach them a skill, so that more Women are as strong and self-reliant as your aunts."

Mrs. Sun has never heard someone praise herself so bluntly in person. In the past, those people always said that she was fierce and tough, but now she couldn't help but blush.

But there was a cluster of flames faintly burning in her heart, extremely hot, female student... that was her childhood dream.

When her mother was still alive, her scumbag father treated her pretty well and taught her to read a few words.

Later, when her mother became seriously ill until she died, she had to fight wits and courage with her stepmother, and she had to take care of her younger brother when she went to her uncle's house, so she never had the chance to read books again.

"I don't know what kind of regulations the nobleman is? Do you want to build a school like ethnology?"

Sun said bluntly, she believed that the nobleman did not just say it casually, although she was over fifty years old, she was willing to do something for the girls in the clan.

Chen Fulin had already thought a lot in his mind just now.

Compared with what she told the old patriarch and Uncle Chen before, her thoughts are much clearer now.

"It's like this. The women's school I want to run is not independent of ethnology, but a part of ethnology. It will be expanded around Mengxue..."

"Currently, ethnic studies are divided into elementary school, elementary school, and classics. The former is to teach people to read and write, and only the latter is to teach people to manage the world. I hope that all children will be treated equally at the stage of elementary school. Enlighten and grow up together, which is conducive to the unity of the clan...

After primary school, boys can continue to study Confucian classics, or they can find other ways. I will ask ethnology to add subjects such as arithmetic, business skills, and craftsmanship in addition to classics, for them to choose.

And the same goes for the girls—

Women's school is their choice, where they will be taught the arts of counting, embroidery and so on. "

"Meng Xue and elementary school, classics, arithmetic, business, women's studies, etc., these are collectively referred to as the ethnology of my Chen family! A brand new ethnology!"

With this system in place, the children in the entire clan, whoever has the heart, can learn a skill, whether it is reading, or other things, regardless of gender.

The Sun family and the others have been shocked by her words, their ethnology——

So shocking!

Better than the school in town!
In the whole Dajing, the eating skills such as business calculation and crafting utensils are all held tightly like family heirlooms.

If it wasn't for a coincidence, or if you paid enough to be accepted as an apprentice, no one would teach others at all.

And their Chen Clan's ethnology actually wants to teach them so much?

In this way, even if the children are not interested in studying, they can still learn a craft, and it is not a problem to support themselves.

"How? As for Mengxue Primary School and Confucian classics, Aunt Chen has to worry about it. As for the girls' school, would you be willing to help me?"

"willing!"

"Of course we are willing!"

Mrs. Sun and Aunt Chen took the lead in setting an example, and the others followed suit.

"My lord, you have done so much for us, but it's just a little bit of effort. We don't have enough time to be grateful. Why would you not want to? I'm afraid that if you don't do well, you will miss the nobleman's business and the children's future."

Chen Fulin smiled: "My aunts and daughters are all people with a deep gap in their hearts, why bother to be too modest? I believe that you will definitely bring a bright future to my Chen's daughter..."

A few elders who add up to hundreds of years old, just like this, were excited by a young man's words.

They even feel that they are no worse than the men at home now.

They will soon no longer rely on the men at home, but on themselves!

Looking at the small flames in the eyes of several aunts, Chen Fulin thought, maybe this is the different mentality of women who have their own affairs and women who can only rely on their father, husband, and son!

Not being a dodder flower will bring back a lot of self-confidence...

So she herself has been fighting to become such a person, and she also hopes that her daughter can become such a person.
