Chapter 1095 Changing Destiny

"Shan Zhang," Chu Yin said slowly after a long silence, "can I ask you a question?"

"Excuse me." Chief Li Shan's attitude was always gentle.

Chu Yin smiled slightly: "What do you think is the best way for a person to change his destiny?"

"Reading!" Li Shanchang blurted out.

Chu Yin continued to ask: "Why?"

"Why?" Li Shanchang's eyes were confused for a moment, and then he said, "For example, if a farmer wants to change his destiny, it is impossible to just rely on hard work.

“That’s not to say there aren’t those naturally smart people, but they are extremely rare after all.

“Growing up in a farmhouse, everything about the farmhouse is what we hear and see.
"Farm, save money, build a house, marry a wife and have children. When the children grow up, continue farming, save money, build a house, marry a wife and have children...

“However, the number of acres available to common people is limited, and the money they can earn by working tirelessly from dawn to dusk is always limited.

“It would be better if things are always safe and smooth, but what if there is a natural disaster and the harvest is not good?

"The land tax still has to be paid.

"What if a family member gets sick again? It's very likely that the income from a year's work will only be enough to make ends meet."

Chu Yin nodded slightly, "If you are stuck in a fixed mindset, you won't be able to get out of the trap."

"Yes," Li Shanchang nodded, "Everyone knows that studying will lead to success. At the very least, even if you are just a scholar, your family will be exempted from land tax.

"If you are lucky enough to be elected, you will be qualified to be an official.

"Therefore, even if a family is impoverished, as long as their son has a little talent for studying, even if he has a huge debt, he will be able to provide..."

His speech slowed down, as if he was thinking of something, but he couldn't figure it out clearly.Chu Yin took over the conversation and said, "Shan Chief, all men know that studying can change their destiny, but can't women know this?
“Reading can help you understand the truth and break away from the shackles of thinking that you have learned through hearing and seeing.

“You said you don’t see the purpose of learning riding and shooting, then I can tell you that riding and shooting can tell learners that through unremitting efforts, not only can they strengthen their bodies, but they can also do things that they could not do otherwise.

“You said you don’t know where women’s literacy will be used in the future.

"Girls from wealthy families will always have to be middle-aged girls in the future, and there are many uses for them.

“Does it mean that girls from poor families don’t need to worry about the family’s income and expenses?
"We won't talk about how girls who go out to school can make a living with the real skills they learned in school, but we will only talk about the influence at home.

"Which one has more positive influence on their children, an illiterate and rude mother or a mother who is full of poems and books?
"At a young age, if you know the rules and etiquette, you won't be fooled, and you can lead your family on a better path when given the opportunity.

"Looking at the bigger picture, she may not be affecting every household or every street. If women's reading became a common practice, who would put the label of 'ignorance' on women?

"When everyone already has poems and books in their belly, does a monarch still need to worry about the moral education of the people?"

Li Shanchang was stunned.

"Shan Zhang," Chu Yin chuckled, "Let's talk about the specific matter of Yu Sanni.

“You should know that as a doctor, there are gynecologists and pediatricians.

“Most doctors in today’s world are men.

“But when women and children are sick, it is often impossible to determine the symptoms and prescribe the right medicine just by looking at them, smelling, smelling, asking, and examining them.

"Moreover, the distinction between men and women in today's world is as clear as Jingwei. The vast majority of women suffering from gynecological diseases are often ashamed to seek medical treatment."
