No, I was just a concubine, how did I become the queen?

When they first started rescuing the woman who was being abused, the men looked on coldly.

Thinking that they don't abuse their wives and children, those men are scum, and it's good that they are caught.

Later, when they rescued the abducted woman, the men cursed each other inwardly.

I thought that there were still people willing to sell their goods among the buyers, and these people were quite pitiful.

Now, there are people who want to let girls receive education?!

The men panicked. How could this be possible?!

Since ancient times, only men have had the opportunity to receive education.

A woman can only have such an opportunity if she is born into a particularly good family, comes from a wealthy family, and is loved by her parents.

Because the right to education is in the hands of the wealthy and powerful families, it is difficult for men from ordinary families to find a famous teacher to teach them.

Now, give this opportunity to a group of lowly women?

This...isn't this nonsense?

Not to mention the others, even the Fourth Master was a little confused: "What is Mingchen trying to do?"

Lin Mingyan explained: "Maybe there's no one to use them, so they're training people from among the female workers."

She had originally thought of opening a night school to solve the problem of Mingchen having no one to use.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Nian Gao was quite capable and got this done so early.

They both have the same thoughts, so they should be considered a perfect couple.

"Training is fine, but why did it cause such a stir?" The Fourth Master frowned.

Lin Mingyan saw clearly that the Fourth Master was not against women receiving education, but he absolutely could not accept universal education.

The reason for this is that the rulers of feudal dynasties were inherently afraid of enlightening the people.

When resources like education are in the hands of a few people, then there will be people who study hard for ten years and then become rich and powerful.

If all the people read and became wise, the rulers would not be able to sleep at night.

Of course, she couldn't make such a request in front of the Fourth Master. After all, if she wasn't careful, her entire family might lose their lives.

Moreover, if productivity had not reached that level, it would have been impossible to overthrow feudal rule.

All we can say is that the Aixinjueluo family has been pushed down, and if another family takes the lead, the lives of the common people will be just as difficult.

Therefore, Lin Mingyan's ideas are being implemented on a small scale, so that only a few lucky people can benefit.

But the difference is that once these sparks are preserved, they will surely turn into a prairie fire in the future.

Especially with regard to the development of women's education, common people may not be able to allow their daughters to study, but that may not be the case for the rich and powerful.

And now there are female officials, so women can slowly start preparing to take the imperial examinations.

After hearing her thoughts, the Fourth Master realized that they were not fooling around and that their commotion was enough to get everyone to study, so he let them do as they pleased.

As for the complaints in the court, he simply suppressed them.

Who suggested that you go to the factory to help?

Not going?

Can you let your son and grandson go instead?

No?

If you don’t, just shut up!

In this way, the night school for female workers was successfully opened.

Fortunately, the factory’s daytime working hours are not long, and the female workers have nothing to do after dinner, so they are all willing to come and study.

They have all experienced great ups and downs in life. The opportunity to be reborn is hard-won, and everyone cherishes it very much.

Not to mention such a precious learning opportunity. Even if you feel sleepy and have to hold your eyelids open with your hands, you have to insist on listening.

The factory was on the right track, and when toothpaste, toothbrushes and soap became popular on the market, people began to realize the benefits of the factory.

In particular, these products are for the general public, the prices are very low, and the purchase is restricted according to household registration.

There is no such thing as someone hoarding large quantities of goods and making a profit from the price difference.

The sweet potatoes in the fields were harvested in abundance, and the number of pigs raised increased. People who had enough food and drink began to pursue clothing and other things.

It just so happened that the products of the three factories happened to meet the time when the market was expanding. Although the prices were not expensive, they could make small profits but sell in large quantities.

When I counted the money I earned at the end of the year, it was really not to be underestimated.

According to the original requirements, half of the profits were to be paid to the state treasury, and the rest was at the factory's disposal.

Whether it is giving out year-end bonuses or adding equipment to expand production, Mingchen, the factory director, has the final say.

With the benefits, the threshold of the Niuhulu family is about to be broken down by others.

Mingchen's wedding was scheduled for the sixth day of the first lunar month of the following year, which was a good omen for everything to go smoothly.

Mingchen was very proud of himself.

Lin Mingyan really wanted to be present at the wedding, but the Fourth Master couldn't go, and as the Queen she could only send a generous gift.

But the children had no scruples and went to attend their uncle's wedding, which was a serious matter!

Compared with the joy of Yaliqi and others, Wu Yunzhu felt a little uncomfortable.

She hesitated for a long time, and finally went to find Geng: "Mother, I also want to leave the palace..."

"Leave the palace?" Geng's cheeks were slightly sunken, but her eyes were surprisingly bright. "Do you still miss Niu Hulu Mingchen?"

"Hasn't he hurt you enough?"

"He's fine now. Look how much you've suffered."

Wu Yunzhu choked up: "Mother, I'm fine, right?"

She already understood that the suffering she had endured before was all her own fault and had nothing to do with Mingheng.

But her mother was like a madman, insisting that he was the one who harmed her.

Moreover, she didn't think she had suffered much of a loss. Both the Emperor and the Empress had told her that she was fine.

But her mother insisted that she had ruined her reputation and might not be able to get married in the future.

Even if I get married, I won't be able to marry into a good family.

"It's okay?! How can it be okay?" Geng was almost going crazy with anxiety.

She said with dismay, "Do you know that your father-in-law has already found several families for you?"

"There are quite a few descendants of prominent families among them, and now they are all eager to choose a husband!"

That was a family that His Majesty had informed in advance, so why did they dare to choose a wife openly?

Isn’t it because Wu Yunzhu’s reputation has been ruined and His Majesty feels guilty that’s why he didn’t say anything?

Geng is now so anxious that she can't sleep at night. What she fears most is that Wu Yunzhu's bad reputation will spread. That would be a nightmare!

Wu Yunzhu couldn't help herself this time and retorted, "If I can't get married, I'll just live in the palace with my mother for the rest of my life. Isn't that good too?"

As soon as this idea came up, Wu Yunzhu was immediately attracted to it.

Anyway, I can't marry the person I like. Instead of finding someone to make do with and have children with, I might as well not get married for the rest of my life.

She is a princess. When she grows up, she will have her own princess palace. If she lives alone, she will have no shortage of money or time, which is so comfortable.

Thinking of this, she felt extremely disgusted with Geng for always insisting on her marriage!
