Plane Small Bookstore [System]

Sarah Wollman is on her way to a girls' reading led by Countess Elizabeth Rowland.Most of the people who can be selected for this reading club are well-educated aristocratic women in the circle. Every Saturday, they will gather together to discuss the books they have read recently.

Sarah is the earl's daughter. She is beautiful and dignified, with quick thinking and outstanding eloquence. She has always been the man of the Saturday regular meeting.However, she has missed several regular meetings recently because of a trip to the Roman Empire with her parents.

She believed that with what she had seen and heard in the Roman Empire this time and the few new Roman books she found as talking points, this time she would once again become a prominent figure in the book club and the envy of other noble ladies.

She gracefully got out of the car, straightened her hat, carefully covered her smug smile with a fan, and walked slowly towards Mrs. Roland who was waiting at the door.

"My dear Sarah, long time no see." Madam Roland gave her a hug affectionately, "Is the Roman Empire fun?"

"Of course." Sara showed a reserved smile, "There are a lot of novelties that Seid doesn't have, and I brought you a gift." While the two were exchanging greetings, Linda also got out of the car.

Sarah's face darkened for a moment.If you want to ask who is the person Sarah hates the most in her life, it is Linda Swift, the daughter of Baron Swift.They have been deadly enemies since they went to school, and the number of beams they have formed is countless.

It was really bad luck to meet this woman at the door. Although she thought so in her heart, she still showed a warm smirk on her face: "Hey, isn't this Miss Swift? Long time no see."

Unlike the confrontation that Sara envisioned, Linda frowned, looking preoccupied.When she heard Sarah's question, she was obviously shocked, and rarely stammered: "Okay, long time no see."

Sara squinted her eyes thoughtfully, her intuition telling her that something was wrong with Linda.

Before Sarah could test her out, Mrs. Roland smiled and said, "Girls, let's go in." The woman who could be their grandmother at this age had a kind smile on her face, "Everyone is waiting for you."

So Sarah could only suppress her doubts.

What makes Sarah even more strange is yet to come.The romance she had prepared for a long time did not win the expected popularity. She found that there were many noble ladies surrounding Linda, whispering in the corner, and a strange and fanatical atmosphere was brewing among them.

Something happened that she didn't know about!Sara felt that part of the situation was out of her control, and it made her uncomfortable.

In the next few days, Sara spotted Linda and the people around her in many social situations. What made her even more frightened was that almost every time she saw some new faces joining their conversation.

Oh, God!Has she passed away after only a few days away from Seid Empire? !

As the darling of the social world, Sarah would never allow this to happen!

She wanted to know what they were talking about.But Linda and the others were very vigilant. Every time she approached, they would immediately change the subject and let her return without success.

At this moment, a noble lady who was acquainted with her whispered to her that Linda and the others were doing some "terrible and unruly things."

Then Sarah knew the content.

Feminism, work, equality, liberation, second sex... Such a large amount of information made her dizzy and left her speechless.

"Oh, God, this is really... a terrible thing. This must be a trick of the devil. Poor Linda, she has been completely captured by the devil." Sara patted her chest, looking terrified look.

"Who says it's not." The female companion gloated, "If this gets out, the reputation of the Swift family will be ruined."

Sarah's heart skipped a beat.

Baron Swift had always been his father's political enemy...

Maybe she can do something.

Lejing's bookstore has completely become a place for women's salons.More and more women are joining Mary, they are here to talk about marriage, talk about politics, talk about the future of women, talk about everything they can talk about.

Le Jing never joined them, he just watched them from a distance.

These women, who are usually cautious in a patriarchal society, completely released their nature in this unrestrained, open and free occasion.

So Le Jing discovered that even the most timid and timid lady would debate with others for her own ideas, and a serious and rigid woman like Mary could also laugh and talk happily.

They read, they think, they transform, just like saplings irrigated by sweet springs, they stretch their bodies in the sun, and one day they will become big trees that can hold up half the sky.

'It's so beautiful. Le Jing looked at this vibrant picture with a smile, as if he saw another world through them, the same thing that happened in another time and space.

【beautiful? ] Le Ling's voice is weird: [Who are you referring to? 】

Le Jing's eyebrows stretched: "Everyone, everyone is beautiful. '

[...According to your human aesthetic standards, how many of the ladies can only be considered ordinary in appearance, right? 】

Le Jing laughed, and was not in a hurry to correct Le Ling, but instead asked, "You know what?"In my country, the last feudal dynasty was an empire called the Qing Dynasty. There are still many photos of the late Qing Dynasty circulating on the Internet, including some photos of women. '

'Some of them are concubines in deep palaces, some are wives of officials, some are wives of big families, and some are girls from poor families.They are of different ages, have different identities, and dress differently, but most of them have one recognized characteristic.Want to guess what? '

【Oops, don't be foolish, just say it! 】

Le Jing laughed, and continued: "Ugly."All are ugly.His eyes are dull, his eyebrows are raised and his eyes are lowered, his figure is shrunken and stooped, and he looks like a walking dead.It is hard to imagine that these were the wealthiest women in the society at that time, and they were not even as beautiful as a poor fisher girl. '

Le Ling questioned: [This is not in line with common sense.Since ancient times, the top of the society has enjoyed the most lucrative resources. They do not work, have enough food and clothing, and take good care of themselves. They should be happier and more beautiful than the poor! 】

'No, you're wrong, it makes sense. Le Jing smiled sarcastically: "They are bound by the three principles and five constants and women's virtues. They can't go out of the gate, and they can only be locked in a small courtyard every day. They can't see the blue sky above their heads. How can they not keep their eyes dull?" , gloomy?At home, they are governed by their in-laws, husbands and sons, and their wealth and life are placed in the hands of others. Their education tells them that they must kneel to live, so how can they not lower their eyebrows and shrug their eyes? '

Le Ling was dumbfounded.

'Now tell me, are the ladies in the shop beautiful? '

Le Ling looked seriously at those vibrant women with their chests and heads up, and sincerely agreed: [You are right, they are indeed beautiful. 】

Le Jing looked at those enthusiastic and lively ladies with admiration, with an indescribably gentle expression: "Every life alive with enthusiasm is suffocatingly beautiful." '

Time flies when you focus on one thing.Before he knew it, it was the 27th day since Le Jing came to this plane.In three days, he will leave here.

These days, through newspapers, books and communication with people, Le Jing has discovered countless similarities between this plane and the earth.First of all, this plane also has seven continents and five oceans, and there are also religions that believe in God and Buddha. This world has also experienced the Renaissance and Industrial Revolution, as well as the Age of Discovery and the notorious Witch Hunt.

It is now 1910, and the mainland where Le Jing is located is called Xizhou.The Said Empire is the most powerful country in the western state, which is equivalent to the empire on earth where the sun never sets that just ended the second industrial revolution a hundred years ago.

The rampant mercantilism; the division of colonies; the political and economic imbalance among the imperialists; the aristocrats controlled the upward channels of society, the internal conflicts intensified, and there was an urgent need to transfer the conflicts; a country called Prussia rose strongly; the ideological field was chaotic; gender inequality... …The problems of this plane also existed on the earth in the 20th century, and some of them still exist in the 21st century. Le Jing is not surprised by this.

He just felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

It is the inferiority of human beings, the general trend of history, and the inertia of history.

Leling's current source of energy supplementation is only light energy, but the energy converted from sunlight is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket compared to Leling's consumption.After leaving this time, it will take Le Ling at least a month to accumulate energy in order to accumulate enough energy to maintain the link for a month.And Le Ling can't control the time when Le Jing will come here next time.

So, at least before leaving, Le Jing wanted to do something for them.

So the next day, when everyone started chatting as usual, Le Jing stood up from the counter and raised his voice: "Everyone, please be quiet."

Everyone subconsciously stopped what they were doing and looked at Le Jing.

Le Jing looked at the familiar and unfamiliar faces.Some newcomers join and some old ones leave.

25 people.

Some of them are ladies of noble families, some are daughters of merchants, some are female workers in factories, and some are governesses.

In the future, this young team will be reorganized, updated, and cleaned many times. I am afraid that there will be no one left at the end.

But Le Jing never thought they would fail.

Freedom is a poison, an addiction, and once you taste it, you can never quit.

Now that he has given them the key to freedom, how to achieve it and how long it will take to achieve it all depends on them.

Le Jing regretted not being able to witness the legend, but he will come back eventually.

He will come back to see what kind of flowers he has planted.

And before he left, the only thing he could do was to tell them the "prediction" he got from newspapers, books, and lessons from the history of the earth.

"War is coming."

"It's not a war between two countries, but a war that lasts for countless years and sweeps the world. A war about the survival and destiny of mankind is coming."

"You will supplement the jobs left by men, you will be active in any field, including the battlefield, you will have an independent economic status, and you will even have the right to participate in politics."

Facing those surprised, ignorant, thoughtful, or questioning eyes, Le Jing finally smiled, with compassion and helplessness: "War is a stupid atrocity. But for you, it is an opportunity."

"When the men are almost dead, women can have a chance."

The author has something to say:

Music scene: I will be back

Ah, by the way, today my editor asked me for an outline.

Me: Σ(°△°|||)︴No, there is no outline, just, just a few scribbles.

Me: Ah, can I write about the Republic of China?Overhead, the kind without any historical figures?

EDIT: It's better not to
