No one can disturb my retirement life in the Red Mansion

At the same time, the local officials of Nanxu finally gathered almost all the orphans together, had the doctors treat their illnesses and remove worms. The older ones were sent to learn a craft, the younger ones were sent to an orphanage, and the ones who were just five or six years old and old enough to start learning were sent to school.

The school is the Taoist temple of the alchemist! It is big enough, with beautiful scenery and quiet. It is also not too far from the National Medical Hall. If we build some dormitories behind the Taoist temple, the children can live there. Taoist temples are usually on the mountain, and it is very cheap to open up medicinal fields on the mountain.

Because the second and third generations of doctors joined, the medical school seemed very formal. Ou Mengmeng had the most experience in this kind of elementary school. She also changed into coarse clothes and went to help when she had nothing to do. In fact, she just wanted to see if there were any other problems.

Not bad, there are some naughty ones among these second and third generation doctors, but basically, they are all civilians. I have mentioned before why Sun Quan and Zhou Yu think that if they really do what the old lady has set, they might as well become officials. The question is, don't they want to? Of course not! Doctors are ranked before merchants and after farmers in the "scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans". They are workers. They are considered craftsmen!

And don't forget, this was the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the Imperial Physician was an official, but his rank was not high. There were also cases of Imperial Physicians and foreign officials participating in treason, so doctors have always been strictly controlled and a group that is strictly guarded against.

Furthermore, the system for becoming an official at that time was a recommendation system. Zhang Zhongjing was recommended for various reasons, so the people recommended for official positions were called "Xiaolian"! In this case, the existence of many powerful families became a permanent problem.

So in the Sui Dynasty, Yang Guang implemented the imperial examination system, which was a plan to break the monopoly of the aristocratic families. So later generations said that one of the reasons why Yang Guang was overthrown was this. If we follow the normal evaluation of the emperor, Yang Guang dug the canal to solve the problem of transportation between the north and the south; he implemented the imperial examination system to break the monopoly of the aristocratic families; and he also conquered Korea several times, which can be regarded as military merits, which are merits in themselves. If he can accomplish three things, it can also be regarded as a political achievement. As a result, he was overthrown like this. What a tyrant and a fool. Please! There are many emperors in history who are worse than him. The point is, look at whose cake he touched. (I don’t mean to whitewash it, I just speak out my feelings.)
So Ou Mengmeng is starting with medicine. We run a medical school, and we don't allow the rabble to enter the medical system. This is to ensure the safety of the people. In fact, all parties know that this has given Dongwu a big advantage, and then they think, why didn't we think of it. As for whether to use this method on scholars? But immediately, everyone stopped themselves from thinking about it. They didn't dare to think about it!
Reading is a privilege. Didn't you see that Sun Lang was promoted immediately because he could read? Scholars, at this time, don't even have good paper, how can they talk about reading? The bamboo slips for writing have to be washed and dried before being reused. How can ordinary people afford it?

So here, the second and third generation doctors are about the same age as the orphans, and their families have not started to provide them with any education, so everyone is at about the same level. When they go to school, they may feel a little superior because they are not orphans and their families have some money, but in fact the gap in social status between them is not that big, so the barriers between them are not that great.

Everyone studied and learned medicine together, and gradually they began to appreciate each other. The second and third generation doctors had tutors at home, and the orphans cherished the opportunity to study, and worked hard. So at first they were trying to stand out from each other, and later, it became healthy competition.

Sun Lang wanted them to integrate, but the old lady didn't let him. She could have set up a separate class for these children, but she didn't. She deliberately put them together to cultivate a healthy competitive state between them. If they were integrated, how could they make progress?

Besides, people, don't integrate randomly. It will become painful. These second- and third-generation doctors who can come here are all from families that are well-known in the medical field. Their starting point may be the end point of these orphans. It's a bit cruel, but this situation cannot be changed even in the 21st century.

At this time, it seems that there is no barrier between them. In fact, there is a clear distinction between them, just like the boundary between Chu and Han. After integration, there may be a few exceptions, and the best ones can always achieve class leap. But these people are a minority after all. In particular, this time the school has also recruited many girls.

No matter when, poor girls are destined not to be the same as boys! They are in another class, taught by another teacher. Of course, girls who don't want to study medicine can study other things.

Ou Mengmeng is very adaptable to society. She doesn't want to give these children too much hope. Just like in the Dream of the Red Chamber, her education for the girls is to make fine adjustments within the rules. Just like she would never teach them gender equality, she would only tell Jia Yuan that she taught them to become great widows.

At this time, these girls have a harder time, and because they have a harder time, she is less likely to give them hope. The rules may be cruel, but perhaps ignorance is also a kind of bliss.

Sun Lang had suffered a lot. He had a hard time in this big family. He knew that he was different from his brothers, so he had always been restrained and patient. Now that his mother said this, he was the first to understand. Therefore, he was more adept at managing.

Sun Shangxiang didn't like her mother's way of teaching them separately. She had been taught by two mothers and had grown up in a lawless state. Now, the girls were all very smart, but what they learned was different from what the boys learned. This made her feel it was too unfair.

Ou Mengmeng also felt that it was unfair, but she had no choice. In the 21st century, she could still learn from Principal Zhang and set up a girls' school to let them get out of the mountains and see the vast world. But even if they get out of the mountains, they will only have a little more chance to go out than before, just like what she said to the students who got married and had children and returned to the mountains? I asked you to go out to study, not to be a housewife. But how many highly educated urban girls in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen at that time eventually returned to their families? Reality made them bow their heads, otherwise, if they asked both parents for help, they would be labeled as family exploiters.

Therefore, Ou Mengmeng has always been a person who can recognize the reality. She knows that the situation of women is not easy in any era. At this time, let them do whatever they want like Sun Shangxiang? How is that possible? These girls are orphans. Their situation is really that they can't even leave this yard, let alone get out. Their safety is not guaranteed. This is the reality. In an era where people dare not even dream about it, they still dare to talk about equality and fair competition. I really don't know how to write the word death! (End of this chapter)
