Literary Heroes of the Republic of China

Chapter 207 "Nation of Daughters" Logout

Some people scolded the article "Change of Body", and of course some people praised it.

Some insightful people spoke for "The Story of Changing Body" one after another: "The book "The Story of Changing the Body" is extremely ironic. Every man should read it, and then examine himself."

"Nowadays, many men are really inferior to women."

""Body Changing" is not only a novel that speaks for women, it is also a warning to today's men!"

……

A newspaper run by women in Shanghai, Women's News even printed an additional issue, and then the whole article was full of praise for "The Story of Changing Body". Of course, "Metamorphosis" was also mentioned, encouraging women to be self-reliant .

After Mu Qiong was busy at school that day, when he went to visit Zhu Wanwan in the orphanage, he saw Zhu Wanwan chatting about "Change of Body" with some women who came to do volunteer work.

"I read this book and thought it was good-looking. I didn't expect to cause so many troubles now. My husband even had conflicts with me because I read this book."

"Those men, they are afraid, afraid of encountering such a thing!"

"Thinking about it carefully, this woman is really no worse than a man. My daughter is much better at studying than her cousin."

……

At this time, middle-aged women are mostly silent in the face of today's movement, and even young women are in the minority.

In fact, most of the people who speak for women today are men.

No way, even if women want to speak for themselves, they don't have a chance - some big newspapers and magazines are edited by men, and most of them don't accept women's contributions.

Let alone educated women, there are still very few.

Many women, even along with men, are boycotting articles like "The Story of Changing Your Body".

Fortunately, she has a good friendship with Zhu Wanwan, and the woman who has maintained this friendship is not the kind of submissive woman who puts her husband first.

In addition to Zhu Wanwan, Zhu Yu is also reading "The Story of Changing Body" to the children in the orphanage.

In the classroom used to teach children to read, Zhu Yu was sitting on the podium, holding the Monthly Hope and reading with emotion, while below, a group of older children in the orphanage were all listening attentively.

Most children listen to this book as a story, but some children think about it.

In the orphanage, there are only a small number of girls, and the girls who are sent here are just young ones. The older ones always subconsciously give way to the boys around them when they first arrived—in today’s world, basically In every household, girls give way to boys.

But after staying in the orphanage for a long time, these girls gradually changed. After all, here, no one asked them to give up boys.

Recently, after listening to Zhu Yu reading a lot of articles encouraging women to study, as well as articles like "Transformation" and "Body Changing", the changes in them are getting bigger and bigger.

Now that Zhu Yu had finished reading, a girl in her teens said, "I won't marry anymore!"

Zhu Yu said: "It's good not to marry, and you won't have to be meddled in the future!"

As soon as Zhu Yu said this, the girls nodded seriously, but the boys were filled with resentment.

Mu Qiong came in just in time to see this scene, and felt a little sympathetic to those boys.

Zhu Yu was very beautiful and educated, and she was the goddess of a large group of boys in the orphanage.

Now the goddess says it's good not to marry...they must be sad.

But Mu Qiong is very satisfied with this situation.

How nice it is not to worry about my younger sister's puppy love!

Just as Mu Qiong was thinking this way, he heard Wei Yuanyuan say: "Actually, if you don't want to marry, you can marry one! My father asked me to marry a man!"

Little Wei Yuanyuan is really a person who can't be judged by his appearance!

Wei Ting is quite free and easy!

"Brother!" Zhu Yu greeted Mu Qiong happily when he saw Mu Qiong.

"Are you talking about "Body Changing"? This book should really be read carefully." Mu Qiong said: "Throughout the ages, the reason why men have always been respected is because men are strong and can do many things. Women are born weak Now, they have to raise children, and they spend a lot of time. In this way, the right to speak is naturally in the hands of men. But in the future, machines will replace manpower in this world, and the gap between men and women will gradually narrow. Women can also earn money to support their families, and when the time comes, women will also have the right to speak."

Moo-joon makes some sense to the kids.

He didn't specialize in women's rights, and he was just talking about his own feelings, but he felt that this should make sense.

Speaking of which, in Shanghai, the patriarchal situation is not serious in later generations. One of the reasons is that there are many factories here.Since the middle and late period of the Republic of China, more and more women have jobs and can support themselves, so it is impossible for them to submit to men.

The children in the orphanage were thoughtful, and the older girls were even more excited.

They usually do the jobs arranged in the orphanage no worse than men, and they can make money!And since they can make money, they can naturally live without looking at men's faces!

Mu Qiong didn't stay long in the orphanage.

After seeing Zhu Wanwan and Zhu Yu, he went to the hospital, and then learned from Fu Yun'an that his "Naughty Girl Country" would be published in several newspapers and magazines at the same time the day after tomorrow.

"Second brother sent your article to several newspapers and magazines. After talking about it, it was finally decided to publish it at the same time the day after tomorrow." Fu Yun'an said.

The article "The Kingdom of Daughters" has more than 3 characters. Due to technical problems, the newspapers and magazines at this time had to print very large characters. Now these newspapers and magazines have agreed to publish together...the magazines are nothing more, and the newspapers probably need more paper.

It must be because of Huo Ying that they are willing to make such a fuss.

"Thank you second brother for helping me." Mu Qiong said.

"Okay." Fu Yunan smiled.

After "Nation of Daughters" confirmed the publication time, Mu Qiong spent all his time in school again.

The students he wanted to recruit were all from poor families, so he didn't advertise in the newspaper. On this day, he went to a nearby village and told the villagers about it.

Those villagers know about the school building here, and now they are very happy to hear that the school will enroll students, but they are a little hesitant about sending girls to school, for fear that they will encounter bad people and deceive their families. Girl.

Mu Qiong was not surprised by this, and didn't say much. He just wanted to let Huo Anni take those female teachers for a walk when Huo Anni was free.

It's not appropriate for him to be a big man to recruit female students, but when Huo Anni came forward, those common people were willing to come.

A day flies by in the blink of an eye.

Early the next morning, Mu Qiong woke up in Fu Yun'an's bed.

The two have already lived together like a husband and wife, but they are always very busy, even if they sleep together every day, they seldom mess around, and usually solve it with each other's hands.

Of course, this is also Mu Qiong's consideration for Fu Yun'an's body. As the recipient, he has been tossed a lot, which is not good for his body.

He hopes to be with Fu Yun'an for a long time, so naturally he can't hurt Fu Yun'an.

As soon as Mu Qiong woke up, he found that Fu Yun'an was next to him, squeezing him into the innermost part of the bed.

At this time, the bed was mostly surrounded by three sides to install mosquito nets. At first, Mu Qiong took the initiative to sleep outside, but Fu Yunan liked to squeeze him so much that he almost squeezed him out of the bed, so he changed to sleep on the inside.

However, the consequence of sleeping on the inside is that he is often pushed into a corner...

Fu Yun'an said that he used to sleep alone and was not used to sleeping with others, but in fact...he was on other people's bodies all day long, and he liked to hug them tightly.

Didn't see anything out of the ordinary.

Mu Qiong didn't hate this, it was summer and it was a bit hot.

"Wake up." Mu Qiong pushed Fu Yun'an.

"Hmm..." Fu Yun'an opened his eyes, then naturally fell asleep on his back, and let go of Mu Qiong by the way.

I don't know if it's hot, but his face is a little red.

Mu Qiong sat up, bent down and kissed him again: "Get up."

After speaking, Mu Qiong picked up the watch on the cabinet beside the bed, and said again: "It's already five o'clock."

At this time, there are many cabinets on the inside of the bed, where you can put some small things. Mu Qiong put the watch on his wrist, and gave Fu Yunan another watch, and then crawled over Fu Yunan to the outside of the bed. Get out of bed.

There are two enamel cups on the low cabinet by the bed, and a kettle on the floor.Mu Qiongcong poured some hot water into both cups, drank one cup himself, and gave the other cup to Fu Yun'an.

Fu Yun'an took the water and drank it down. After getting dressed, he went downstairs with Mu Qiong, and then went to the room next to the kitchen which was specially used for washing to brush his teeth.

After brushing their teeth, the two went to the kitchen to drink a bowl of rice soup, and then started exercising in the yard.

When he didn't know Fu Yun'an's identity, Mu Qiong had been exercising with Huang Yang and the other two, but after Fu Yun'an's vest fell off, he started exercising with the people arranged by Fu Yun'an, and even tried a gun.

Then, under his insistence, Fu Yun'an also started exercising together.

Fu Yun'an's physical strength is not good, but it is not bad, at least it is much better than those modern people who stay at home all day.He is now exercising with Mu Qiong every day. He was a little tired in the first few days, but now he has adapted.

However, his amount of exercise is not as good as that of Mu Qiong.

After practicing for half an hour, Fu Yun'an went to take a shower. After he took a shower, Mu Qiong was still practicing, so he went to the dining room first and read the newspaper.

The headline on the front page of the report is an explanation of the rule "Those who deliberately dress up in strange clothes so that their arms and legs are exposed are allowed to be arrested immediately and punished according to regulations."

Fu Yun'an doesn't like to show his body, even in summer, he still wears his robe neatly, but seeing such a rule, he still instinctively doesn't like it.

Fu Yun'an had known about this for a long time, so he didn't read too much. He put the declaration aside and took Dazhong Daily to read it.

On the Dazhong Daily, there is a "Naughty Girl" published.

After the government requested the use of punctuation, Shanghai was the first to respond, and this has something to do with Mu Qiong.

Newspapers and magazines in Shanghai are very happy to use punctuation, with the monthly education magazine as the first choice.

Dazhong Daily has already used punctuation, so it is very smooth to read. Fu Yun'an re-read "The Kingdom of Daughters" that he had read once, and admired Mu Qiong's whimsy.

While Fu Yun'an was watching, Fu Huai'an came down from upstairs yawning.

Because he went to the orphanage to teach the children every night, Fu Huai'an went to bed very late at night, and young people of his age liked to sleep the most, so they couldn't get up in the morning.

"Third brother." Fu Huai'an called out and yawned big.

"Drink a glass of water." Fu Yunan handed him a glass of water, and then handed him the newspaper in his hand: "There is a good story here, take a look."

"Who wrote it?" Fu Huai'an asked as he took the newspaper, saw the name "Zhu Shi'an" on it, and said, "So it was written by Teacher Mu!"

Mu Qiong didn't hide Zhu Shi'an's pseudonym from his family, but just told them not to say it.At this moment, knowing that the article was written by Mu Qiong, Fu Huai'an suddenly became interested: "After Teacher Mu's "Metamorphosis" was finished, I have been waiting for his new book, but I didn't expect him to write it under Zhu Shi'an's pen name!"

Fu Huai'an watched while talking.

Seeing Feng Qi travel to such a place, he found it very funny, but looking at it, he not only found it funny, but also felt... chills all over.

What a place this is!How did the people there do such a thing? !

In the past two years, Fu Huai'an has grown up a lot, and he can already see some things behind him clearly. Now that he has just read the beginning, he feels a little depressed: "I have known for a long time that binding feet and chest is harmful. I also know that this society is always extremely harsh on women, but I only have a vague idea, now..."

Right now, Fu Huai'an feels like someone has poured cold water on his head.

He was a little sleepy at first, but not at all now.

He could hardly wait to read the following content.

At this time, Mu Qiong came over after taking a shower after exercising, and as soon as he came, he sat down and took a sip of the soy milk in front of him, and looked at Fu Huai'an curiously: "What is Huai'an looking at?"

""Nation of Daughters"." Fu Yun'an said.

Fu Huai'an also raised his head at this time, and looked at Mu Qiong tangledly: "Mr. Mu, when you write, don't you feel back pain?"

"I don't think so." Mu Qiong laughed and started to eat breakfast.

Fu Huai'an also took a steamed stuffed bun and ate it while watching Mu Qiong's "Nation of Daughters".

Seeing that Feng Qi was starving all the time, he didn't know why, but felt that the steamed stuffed bun in his hand was very delicious...

When Fu Huai'an was watching "The Country of Daughters", many people who subscribed to Dazhong Daily were watching "The Country of Daughters".

In a bungalow, a young woman in her early twenties sighed while holding a Dazhong newspaper: "There are no articles by Mr. Lou Yuyu recently, so this Dazhong newspaper doesn't feel worth seeing."

"The articles in Dazhong newspaper are much better now than before." The woman's husband said, "There is an article that can be read from time to time."

As he spoke, he also picked up the "Declaration" next to him.

But as soon as he picked it up, he couldn't help saying: "Ridiculous!"

"What's absurd?" The woman leaned over, and then frowned: "There is such a rule... this..."

"Shanghai is going to be lively for a while!" said the woman's husband.

Both of them were a little angry, but there was nothing they could do, and the woman took a few deep breaths, took the Dazhong newspaper, and wanted to read some loosely written articles on it to relax her mood.

And when she looked at it, she saw "The Kingdom of Daughters".

This name is very interesting, it reminds me of the daughter country in Journey to the West, and the author's name...

"Zhu Shi'an? Isn't this the one who always scolds people in newspapers? He also writes novels?"

"Zhu Shi'an went to write a novel? Could it be that he is short of money?" The man was very curious, and went to the woman to read it.

And then this look...

Both gasped.

The man even laughed loudly: "This novel is well written, it really is Zhu Shi'an's style!"

The woman also said: "Although I have never bound my feet, I have always bound my breasts. This corset is really uncomfortable. I always feel that I can't breathe through it. I don't have the energy to do anything... It is no different from this corset."

"This book, those men who don't approve of women's feet and breasts, should read it! Ma'am, bring me a pen and paper, I want to write an article!"

"Okay." The woman immediately gave her husband a pen and paper, and said, "I'll write an article too!"

The article "Nation of Daughters" was not only serialized in the Dazhong newspaper, and the couple was not the only one who saw this article.

At Aurora University, a male student rushed into the classroom with Dazhong Daily, and shouted: "I saw a good article in Dazhong Daily, do you want to read it?"

"I also saw a good article, and I want to show it to you!" Another person said.

The publications in their hands were different, but they compared each other and found that both of them were "Daughter Country".

A certain girls' high school.

A few days ago, after the end of "Body Changing", some female students in this school gave a speech.

This school is a church school, and some speeches against Britain and France are banned, but such speeches are not prohibited in the school.

So, in the few days after the speech, the female students in the school were all talking about that speech.

The students live in the school and cannot go out, but every morning, someone will deliver the newspapers and magazines they ordered to them, and at this moment, they will read the newspapers.

Seeing the government's order, these female students were furious: "What does this mean? Why are men not cared about how they dress, but we women are not cared about?!"

They got together, and the more they talked, the more angry they became, and at this time, someone said: "Come and read it! Here is a very interesting article that speaks for us!"

These women leaned over one after another, and then they saw "The Kingdom of Daughters".

"This novel seems to really relieve my anger!"

"If only the world we live in is like this!"

"I've seen Zhu Shi'an's name several times before. At that time, I thought he was really rude. Now, I see that he is really nice!"

"Mr. Lou Yuyu, Mr. Tianxing, this Mr. Zhu Shi'an and many others are all speaking for us, and we must not let them down!"

"Should we...should we organize a parade?"

……

These female students were very angry at the beginning and spoke loudly, but afterward, everyone lowered their voices and started discussing in low voices.

It's not good for them to shout loudly about things like parades.

Although the article "The Country of Daughters" is short, it slaps those men in the face who feel that women can't show their breasts and should stay at home quietly.

This morning, some old-fashioned and old-fashioned men were very happy after seeing the news on the declaration, and some people took this opportunity to educate their family members. A man in his 50s is reprimanding his daughter-in-law: "Look at how you take care of your children. The older one doesn't know how to make her breasts corset. The younger one, you let her wear shorts." Clothes with sleeves!"

The daughter-in-law there was reprimanded by her father-in-law and was too ashamed to speak.

Now it’s June in the Western calendar, and the weather in Shanghai is very hot. Her youngest daughter is only four years old, and she always sweats profusely when she loves to run and dance. She took out the thin gown she made last summer and put it on for her. As a result, last year's gown was a little short, and the arms were exposed.

As for her eldest daughter, who is 13 years old today and is growing up recently, her chest always hurts, so she only let her use a bellyband, not a tight vest, after all, her eldest daughter hardly ever goes out.

In the end, because of these two incidents, her father-in-law actually reprimanded her like this...

Here the daughter-in-law was so blushing that she couldn't lift her head.

But the father-in-law was a little complacent: "You must never do this in the future! If this happens again, I will let the boss divorce you!"

The daughter-in-law there felt a sense of grievance from the bottom of her heart, but she didn't dare to say anything, she could only swallow the grievance in her stomach.

The father-in-law "pointed out the country" for a while, and continued to read the newspaper in a comfortable mood. Then he saw "The Kingdom of Daughters", and his expression suddenly became distorted.

However, his youngest son, who followed some incomprehensible people and learned some inconsequential things, was still holding another newspaper and said: "Father, I saw a very good story called "The Kingdom of Daughters"! Haha! You should read this story!"

"You bastard!" The father-in-law jumped up and scolded.

The daughter-in-law there saw that her father-in-law was so angry, and immediately became interested in the article called "Daughter Country".

She hasn't read any books and doesn't know many words, but she likes to listen to stories.In the early years, she often prepared all kinds of food for her brother-in-law and asked him to tell her and sister-in-law stories. Now that her brother-in-law is older, she asks her son to tell her stories again. She has heard of Journey to the West and knows that there is a country of daughters in it. .

The real story, is it related to the daughter country in Journey to the West?

When her son is free, she will let him talk to her and her daughter.

This kind of thing happens in many places.

The story of "The Kingdom of Daughters" was known to all the scholars in Shanghai in a very short period of time.

Whether you like it or hate it, whether you praise it or scold it, you have read this article.
