Daming: I asked you to hang yourself, but I didn’t ask you to rebuild the Ming Dynasty

Ding Tieniu scratched the sparse hair on his head, looked at the few long hairs on his fingers, and sighed bitterly:

"Old man, old man, it looks like the top of your head is going to be bald now!"

Seeing her father laughing at herself, Miss Ding stuck out her tongue and grabbed another handful of peanuts:

"Grandpa asked me to go to ethnic studies. If you don't agree, then go tell your dad!"

After all, she went to a girls' school. Miss Ding quickly suppressed her father with justice.

Yes, that's right!

You have to listen to your father, that's right.

But, dad, you have to listen to your dad!

There's nothing wrong with that!

……

There are relatively few studies on this subject for women.

Women's private education in ancient my country has been sporadic and undisciplined for a long time.

And most of them are controlled by the nobility and upper-class intellectual elite.

It truly flourished on a large scale and at multiple levels, and became a fashion and trend in society - it began in the Ming Dynasty.

The main characteristics of women's private schools in the Ming Dynasty were: first, "prosperity"; second, popularity; third, diversity of forms; fourth, diversity of learning content.

A very interesting piece of data is listed in "An Examination of Women's Writings of the Past Dynasties" -

Before the Ming Dynasty, there were 117 female authors that could be verified.

This is the total number of people from the beginning of history to the early Ming Dynasty.

The time span is about 3000 years!

In the short 276 years of the Ming Dynasty, the number of women who left writings was as high as 245!

This figure represents the number of people who still have writings left after the Qing Dynasty's 150-year-long large-scale literary inquisition to destroy books.

As for the learning content of women’s schools in the Ming Dynasty, it broke through the boundaries of previous dynasties.

Correspondingly, the employment scope of women in the Ming Dynasty became more and more extensive!

For example, Sangu and Liupo were the names for literate women in the Ming Dynasty who were engaged in various professions.

Three nuns: nun, Taoist nun, and Gua nun. Six Pos: Ya Po, Matchmaker Po, Shi Po Po, Qian Po Po, Medicine Po Po and Wen Po Po.

Needless to say, Sangu, literally.

Dentist does not mean an old dentist, but a woman who works as an agency.

Being an intermediary in the Ming Dynasty required some contracts!

(You read that right, the so-called spirit of contract has long been common in the Ming Dynasty, and there are many Ming Dynasty sales contracts left today.

So why in modern times, there is no contract, or in other words, there is no contract in general sales? This is not a new low in the literacy rate of a certain dynasty! )

A matchmaker is a matchmaker, a marriage introducer. The master wife and the pious woman belong to the witch and the madam.

Yao Po is a female doctor, and Wen Po is the one who delivers babies.

In addition, there are female accountants, female teachers...

There are even female brokers who specialize in the circle of wives and introduce relationships between officials!

These employment industries for women in the Ming Dynasty are enough to prove that female literacy has already become a common phenomenon!

In fact, if you study the Ming Dynasty deeply, you will find that the founding of the Ming Dynasty was the most serious time. As the Ming Dynasty was established for longer and longer, the social atmosphere became more and more open.

"A Preliminary Examination of Clothing in the Ming Dynasty" can confirm the gradual opening up of this social atmosphere from the side.

The status of women - The Ming Dynasty was the dynasty with the highest status of women after the Tang Dynasty.

(As for the status of women in the Ming Dynasty, you can open your mobile phones and search academic papers to find out. Don’t tell me the nonsense about women’s studies since the Qing Dynasty. I usually never curse people, only slap them in the face with evidence.

One thing in particular - women's education can be traced back to the Han Dynasty, not the Qing Dynasty...)

……

When Ding Tieniu heard this, he sighed, filled himself with another bag of cigarettes, squatted in the corner and smashed the cigarettes, and said:

"What did you learn this month? Or the female training in literature and history?"

When Miss Ding saw that her father had won the fight, she couldn't help but smile.

She dropped the thin stick she was poking at the edge of a large sieve filled with peanuts, turned around and said:

"I've memorized it with my husband a long time ago. What I'm learning now is "Female Fan Jielu"."

After saying that, she picked up the thin stick again, and while eating the peanuts, she poked the little ant that had just climbed over the top of the sieve.

"Look at you, you look like a scholar who has learned female training!"

Ding Tieniu hates that iron cannot become steel.

"If you had learned it earlier, whether it was to be a female accountant in the inner courtyard or a female teacher, you would be able to support yourself without relying on a man for the rest of your life. When you get to your husband's house, who would dare to neglect you?

Your father, I have worried about you less. "

"I don't want to go to that deep mansion to be a bookkeeper or sir!"

Miss Ding shook her head:

"Ada, do you still remember the female general who led troops to fight here a few years ago?"

"Are you talking about the female General Zhang from Sichuan?"

Ding Tieniu frowned.

He knew this person and heard that she was the daughter-in-law of General Qin from Sichuan.

only……

General Zhang died miserably!

I heard that outside Yongnian City, in a place called Houjiazhuang, General Zhang fought fiercely with thieves and fell into a tight siege. All his soldiers and horses died in the battle...

"My daughter, what are you thinking about?"

Ding Tieniu glared:

"How can that army be easy to lead? Didn't you see that the Ma family in central Sichuan has been a general for generations, General Qin is also a hero in the army, and even General Zhang is from a famous family.

However, General Zhang still died on the battlefield.

We are just an ordinary family. Although we rely on hard work, the whole family, young and old, cannot go hungry.

However, it is not that kind of rich family! "

"Not to mention anything else, if you want to go to the battlefield, even if you want to go to the battlefield, our family can't buy many sets for you.

No armor, no servants, what kind of battle are you fighting? "

Ding Tieniu panted heavily. If he hadn't lost his hand while driving a stake when extracting oil and injured his lifeblood, he would have only one son and one daughter...

He always regards his daughter as the treasure in his hand...

If not, he would have been slapped!

What kind of soldier do you want your daughter to be? What fight?

"Ada!"

Miss Ding dropped the peanuts in her hand, pouted, and said angrily:

"Can you let me finish what I'm saying?

I didn't say I was going to be a soldier! "

"Really?"

Ding Tieniu still didn't believe it.

He remembered that something happened in Dengzhou City before he got married.

The woman was well-educated and literate, so she applied for a job as a female teacher at Fu Yuan's house.

Somehow, he hooked up with the second daughter of Mr. Fu's wife, and then lured her out of the city, saying that he would take her on an outing or something.

Who would have known that after leaving, there would be no news.

Fu Yuanwai mobilized many people to search, and even reported it to the official.

However, for six years, there was still no news.

Later, a businessman discovered a woman with a local accent in a brothel in Shanxi. After asking carefully, he found out that it was the second young lady of the Fu family.

After the Fu family redeemed their daughter, and after careful questioning, they found out that the female teacher was actually a man pretending to be a man.
