Marry my elder sister? Fine! I'll give you the letter of annulment and marry someone else.

After receiving their response, Song Zhi nodded, "That's good."

She came to Xiaocao and their room, where Xiaocao was drinking hot tea in silence.

Qiu Er blamed herself and felt regretful, "It's all my fault. I didn't think carefully enough and that's why you got hurt."

"Sister Qiu, this is not your fault."

Xiaocao wiped the tears from her face and smiled sensibly.

But that smile was filled with bitterness and unwillingness. "I feel useless, I'm too weak, I don't have the ability to do anything at all."

She shrank back a little sadly, "I'm so confused, I don't know what to do."

Song Zhi sat down beside her bed distressedly and looked at the others, "What about you? Are you also feeling confused?"

The women obviously didn't expect Song Zhi to ask this, and they looked at each other in silence for a moment.

Song Zhi understood their thoughts and said to Qiu'er, "Go and call all the women over."

Soon, the entire yard was filled with a huge crowd of people.

No one knew why they suddenly gathered here, and everyone's eyes were filled with confusion.

Song Zhi stood at the front and asked the question again, "Are you confused every day now? Do you know what you want to do?"

The women moved rustlingly, not knowing how to answer.

The scene was exceptionally quiet amidst the low noise. After waiting for a long time, no one stood up to answer the question.

Song Zhi lowered his eyes, a little disappointed.

At this moment, a voice suddenly said, "Miss, we don't have to worry about food and clothing now, and we won't have to face the tragic situation we had before. Men also respect us very much. Isn't it enough to live a simple life like this?"

Song Zhi frowned and looked in the direction of the sound, and saw that it was the people who had occupied the dozen or so alleys not long ago.

They had never lived such a good life before, and felt that this was already a paradise on earth, so they did not dare to ask for more.

Many of them hadn't even fully healed from their injuries, and they still felt a sense of fear when the man approached them.

Song Zhi looked around at the others, "Do you all feel the same way?"

After hearing what this woman said, the visitor from her side and the woman from Song’s Martial Arts School immediately shook their heads.

"of course not."

They knew how to answer instantly.

Everyone said one after another: "Young lady said that the world is unfair to women, so we must find a way to overthrow this world. It is not enough to just hide in a small world and deceive ourselves."

"That's why the young lady asked us to study to gain wisdom and practice martial arts to strengthen our bodies, just waiting for the day when women can also be made marquises and ministers, and women can also achieve great things and establish their own careers."

"What's going against the will of heaven? What's going against common ethics? All of this is just shackles imposed on women by men in order to suppress them."

"What we need to do is to break these shackles, so that we can stand tall and shoulder to shoulder with men, and ensure that women around the world no longer have to suffer the same fate as before."

Their voices were resounding and their gazes were firm.

It is hard to imagine that the person who said these words was being tortured at home a few months ago.

Song Zhi was deeply moved.

Fortunately, no one has forgotten what she taught them.

Her eyes unconsciously became moist, and she raised the corners of her mouth.

"Nothing we do now will be in vain. Each of us is a snowflake, seemingly small and insignificant in the vast universe. But when countless snowflakes come together, they can trigger an earth-shattering avalanche."

She took a deep breath and said, "I can't guarantee what I can achieve, but I will lead you forward step by step. Even if I fall one day, there will be new people who will take up this responsibility."

Everyone was moved by what he said, as they had experienced those terrible dark times.

They will realize how precious it is to have someone who can lead them with a ray of light.

Originally, Song Zhi was a pampered girl held in the palm of the Song family's hand. She could sit high and mighty and ignore the suffering of other women.

But she did all this without hesitation, risking her own life to help them, and resolutely embarked on this thorny road with little chance of success.

Everyone looked at Song Zhi with eyes full of admiration and conviction.

When she spoke, you could see her head held high, her eyes firm and resolute, and her whole body was like an insurmountable mountain peak.

Song Zhi continued, "If you're confused and don't know what to do, think back to the dark days."

"Everything we do is not just for ourselves, but also for the millions of women behind us who will no longer suffer injustice, no longer be bound, and no longer live in darkness and fear. We are doing our best to pave a bright path for them, including your daughter."

She can protect them for a while but not for a lifetime. As long as the world remains like this, there will continue to be things that do not treat women as human beings.

The woman who spoke first shed tears of shame.

She suddenly understood, and the people around her also said, "Miss, we understand your good intentions."

They are too short-sighted to be content with the status quo just because of this.

With fire burning in their eyes, they said in unison: "We are willing to follow the young lady and blaze a trail, and we will never regret it, whether we live or die."

The voice was sonorous and powerful, as if it wanted to shout out the anger that was suppressed in their hearts.

Song Zhi smiled with relief. Amid the deafening noise, she looked up and saw Mu Nanqi at the back of the crowd.

The two looked at each other across the crowd, and she saw the undisguised admiration in Mu Nanqi's eyes.

Xiaocao walked out of the house, holding Song Zhi's hand and tears streaming down her face.

"Miss, I know what I should do."

Song Zhi touched her head and said, "That's good."

Seeing that everyone was clear about what she was going to do, she waved her hand and asked them to disperse.

When everyone was about to leave, she called out to Huan'er, who was about to step out of the door, "Wait, Huan'er, please stay a moment."

Huan'er turned back with a smile on her face, and when she walked past Mu Nanqi, she didn't forget to glare at him triumphantly.

Mu Nanqi's face instantly turned gloomy. He strode over to Song Zhi and stood still like a wooden stick.

Song Zhi looked at him in bewilderment. "I want to talk to Huan'er. Please wait for me over there."

Huan'er raised an eyebrow and said, "Master Qi, don't you have a lot of free time? Master Song is so busy teaching and setting lessons every day that he doesn't even have time to mess around."

Indeed, no one has dared to speak like this in front of Mu Nanqi since he grew up.

His cold expression was terrifying, and even the temperature around him was a few degrees lower.

But for some reason, Huan'er was not afraid. Not only was she not afraid, she even tried to add fuel to the fire.

"The young lady said at that time that all the women should be called here. Master Qi came uninvited. Does he want to be a woman or something... Hmm."

Before she could finish her words, Song Zhi covered her mouth with his hand, sweating profusely.

This girl really dares to say anything.
