The female anchor turned into the dean of an ancient academy

Chapter 3 My academy only wants women to study!

"Xiaozhi, can you take me to visit mother now? Not only has she been busy with all the affairs of the academy, but she must have been even more worried about me these past two days. I feel really guilty about it, so I want to let her know that I am safe as soon as possible." Sister Cen Xiao's eyes were bright.

"Of course, young lady. But your head..." Xiaozhi pointed to his own little head.

"It's okay. Look, I'm fine now. I can still chat with you. At most, I just lost my memory."

After hearing this, Xiaozhi was stunned.

"Amnesia! That's all!"

Sister Cen Xiao continued to perfunctorily say, "Since everything is fine, I must first inform my mother that I am safe. She must have been worried these days and had no appetite."

Xiaozhi couldn't persuade Cen Jiexiao, so he told her, "Madam is now in Fengwu Courtyard. I'll take you there right away, Miss."

Sister Cen Xiao followed Xiaozhi to Fengwu Courtyard. Inside the door was a spacious and bright hall. A young and elegant woman was preparing tea. Another middle-aged woman was sitting in the main hall with a gentle face, but her eyes were full of worry. It was obvious that she was Sister Cen Xiao's mother, Kong Xiu Li.

Seeing that Sister Cen Xiao had improved significantly, Kong Xiuli felt relieved. Her mood was like the sea after a storm, finally calm.

Kong Xiu Li hurriedly went to meet Cen Jie Xiao, fearing that she would be a moment late. Her kind and gentle face was full of concern and love.

She stretched out her hands and held Cen Jiexiao's hand tightly, as if her daughter would disappear if she let go. The redness in her eyes must have been from many sad tears.

"Xiaoxiao, seeing that you are safe and sound, my heart finally, ah, let's not talk about it, it's good that you are okay... it's good that you are okay..."

Cen Jiexiao felt the warmth of her family from Kong Xiu Li, and her heart was moved beyond words. She said softly, "Mother, I'm sorry, I made you worry."

"Mother, after waking up, I thought for a long time. I don't want to give up my life's happiness so easily. My father passed away in an unclear manner. I want to keep the academy. It is my father's hard work. I hope you can allow me to run for the election of the headmaster. At the same time, I want to enroll commoner girls."

Cen Jiexiao pleaded with Kong Xiuli firmly, and her persistence in the future shocked everyone present.

Kong Xiuli was shocked by her daughter Cen Jie Xiao's sudden words. She stood there in a daze, full of surprise.

"Xiaoxiao, do you really think so? You have to understand that the position of dean is no small responsibility. There are hundreds of people in the entire academy, and the fate of most of them rests in your hands. How are you supposed to handle the students' futures, the teachers' salaries, and so many other trivial and burdensome matters? Besides, weren't you extremely disgusted with these things in the academy before? Why are you suddenly... In my opinion, Xiaoxiao, as a girl, why do you have to get involved in so many academy affairs? Why not find a suitable man and get married soon? Wouldn't that be more stable?"

After hearing this, Cen Jiexiao patiently explained all this to her mother. Every word she spoke was filled with confidence and elegance, yet also firmness and decisiveness.

"Mother, why do women have to choose marriage and family so early? Can't they complete and realize their ambitions before then? Only when they learn useful knowledge and master the skills to make a living at the best age and become stronger will they have the right to refuse and choose!"

Cen Jiexiao stared at her mother and asked these realistic questions in a rhetorical tone.

"Mother, if one day a wife is kicked out of the house by her philandering husband for no reason, what will she do then? How will a widowed and lonely sister care for and support her family? Or, if a beautiful woman in another family falls in love with a young man, but she can't read or write and only understands some hypocritical etiquette, will they really be happy together?"

She held her mother's hand tightly, her voice trembling but firm as she spoke: "Mother, I just want those common women to be able to study, learn skills, and make their own decisions. This is not only so that they can live a good life in the future, but also so that when they get married in the future, they can have the ability to support their own small families together with their partners."

"Think about it, they must have been cherished and loved by their husbands at that time."

Seeing her daughter Cen Jiexiao's enthusiasm and determination, Kong Xiuli felt a little softer in her heart, but also a little surprised, because she felt that her daughter had completely changed into a different person.

Kong Xiuli gently said to Sister Cen Xiao, "Xiaoxiao, in all these years, I never realized that a girl like you could have such ambition. As a mother, I will naturally support you wholeheartedly for the sake of the academy. Okay, whether you succeed or fail in the selection exam for the headmaster, I will stand by you. In this world, what parent doesn't want their child to soar higher?"
