The Royal’s Little Lady Chapter 472: Still unwilling


"Alas, I just... still can't reconcile myself to it."

This is the source of Mrs. Si's pain.

I want to leave, but I can't leave simply.

I can only stay, but I am unwilling to do so. I can only torture myself and others.

"Actually, madam, you might as well focus on other things."

"Oh?"

Mrs. Si listened carefully. She really wanted someone to wake her up now.

I was extremely confused, but I didn’t know what to do. This confusion deeply tortured her every day.

Now that someone finally talked to her about this, she was very excited and cherished it. He pricked up his ears and listened carefully, for fear of missing a word.

"For example, if you are looking for something new to do, it is best to keep yourself busy, so that you are refreshed and have no time and energy to think about these bad things."

In fact, it is the attention shifting method.

When you are feeling down all the time, you can do something else, preferably something you have never done before, or something you want to do.

This sense of novelty will shift most of your attention to new things.

"Something new?"

"Yes, I wonder what you have always wanted to do, madam?" Chu Yingying followed the instructions step by step.

"Hmm~" Mrs. Si thought seriously and pondered, "Actually, I want to teach the little girls embroidery and some basic etiquette, so that it can become a bargaining chip for them to get married in the future."

For ordinary girls, there are too few items that can add points to their marriage.

The status in the husband's family is inseparable from their abilities.

"Alas, my own life is like this. I want to teach those poor girls from poor families that it is good to let them have more choices about their future lives."

At the very least, if you leave your mother-in-law's family and you know a craft, embroidery, you can still make money.

Chu Yingying's eyes lit up, she clapped her hands and stood up: "Yes, madam, you can set up a school like a girls' school to teach girls of appropriate age to learn embroidery and etiquette for free."

"This, is this possible?" Mrs. Si did not expect her own idea, but she actually got Chu Yingying's approval. She was a little excited for a moment and stood up.

She licked her lips nervously and asked: "But what is going on? How to arrange it?"

"Well, because your main purpose is to help those girls, this girls' school cannot collect money. Once money is collected, most people will not send girls here."

Chu Yingying immediately explained this point.

This is the most critical point.

In the beginning, this girls' school will definitely not make any money, and it may not even make money in the end.

She needs to see Mrs. Si's attitude.

"I definitely don't charge money. I want to help them. I also understand some of the situation. If you charge money, those families will not send their daughters."

In Xinhe Town, if it were not for the enlightened schools, how many families would not be able to afford education for their sons, let alone their daughters.

Suddenly, something flashed through Chu Yingying's mind and she asked: "In enlightened schools, are only boys sent to study? Where are the little girls?"

When she first established the enlightened school, she never said that only boys could go there.

Listening to Mrs. Si’s words, it seems that there are no girls studying?

"Huh? Yes, it didn't say girls could go." Mrs. Si was also stunned for a moment, not thinking about this problem.

"Pah!" Chu Yingying slapped her head directly and said angrily, "It's my fault. I never mentioned that girls can come to study for free at the beginning."

In ancient times, naturally only boys could study.

So if she didn't mention it, everyone would naturally assume that there were only boys.

But Chu Yingying has really forgotten that she lives in modern times and has long been accustomed to nine-year compulsory education, where basic education is available regardless of gender.

"Here, you want girls to also study in enlightened schools?" Mrs. Si looked in disbelief, as if she was listening to heavenly scriptures.

Chu Yingying raised her eyebrows: "Why not? Girls don't have to take the science and technology exams, but at least studying can help them understand right and wrong. A good wife can make a family prosperous for three generations. I think so Most women are literate and can tell right from wrong, right?"

"...That's what you said, but at most big families would ask their husbands to teach the girls alone at home. There has never been any mention of any school that would accept female students."

Mrs. Si looked at Chu Yingying seriously: "You have to think about it, this step is not as easy as you think. I advise you to wait until you stand at a higher level before mentioning this matter. ”

Yes, indeed every big family knows the importance of a wife distinguishing right from wrong.

But it is too difficult for people of this era to accept that women can also study and go to school.

Even if this touches the interests of other people, it will trigger a strong backlash.

An enlightened school is located in a small county. No one will oppose Chu Yingying, also because of Chu Yingying's strong influence in Xinhe Town.

But once women are recruited into the school, these people may not be willing.

If nothing else, even the women themselves may not agree. ~IndoMTL.com~ So, this step will be difficult. So she doesn't suggest Chu Yingying do it now.

Chu Yingying's passion gradually faded, and her mind gradually calmed down.

She sat back in the chair, leaned back, and murmured to herself: "Yes, if we do this now, I'm afraid not many people will support it."

There is no shortage of people with such knowledge, and they are more inclined to hire private tutors.

Families without knowledge are generally very poor. If they don’t have money, they don’t have this knowledge.

In a word: difficult!

"Don't be in a hurry, take your time, I believe you will do it one day."

Mrs. Si stared at Chu Yingying with pure trust and admiration.

From Mrs. Si's point of view, there seemed to be nothing that Chu Yingying wanted to do but couldn't do.

"There is only one sentence left now: hope."

"You are a lucky little girl. Your wishes will come true sooner or later." This is what Mrs. Si thinks.

Such blind worship and belief gave Chu Yingying strength. She changed the subject: "Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Let's talk about what you want to do first."

"Yeah."

The two of them chatted for most of the day.

It's best to just have a rough idea. Before Chu Yingying left, she said that she also wanted to participate in this matter and do something good for the girls in the world.

Mrs. Si held a few banknotes in her hand and felt her heart heavy.

Chu Yingying said that this is only the initial stage. When it is completed in the later stage, she only needs to send her the account and she will pay half of the money.

But similarly, if one day it makes a profit, she will share half of it.

But Mrs. Si knew that Chu Yingying was not here to make money.

"What a good girl."
