Chapter 3235 A flash of light
Chapter 3235 A flash of inspiration
Mrs. Tang looked at her suspiciously, "Why are you suddenly so keen on recommending people?"
Zhou Man sighed and said, "I am so thirsty for talents."
In fact, among the students who entered the Imperial College, female students were far less competitive than male students.
The imbalance between men and women is too serious. As for talented people, Zhou Man feels that both men and women are available and are her students.
But there was a faint voice deep in her heart telling her that things like this would not be a good thing in the long run, and she had to do something to at least make the situation less bad.
When some scholars failed to get into the Imperial College or Ming Jing exam, they would choose to be admitted to the Imperial Medical Office, and then try to get a quota from the Imperial Medical Office to enter the Imperial College.
This was discovered by Xiao Yuanzheng last year, because he found that there were suddenly more scholars applying for the Imperial Medical Office.
You know, in the past, people who applied for the Imperial Medical Office were either people with a medical background, or children from poor families who were committed to studying medicine.
Scholars suddenly appeared who had read the Four Books and Five Classics and were literate in Chinese and Chinese but did not know much about medical science...
Scholars can make this decision, but no one from a scholarly family can make the same decision as them. Therefore, the quality of students entering the Imperial Medical Office is uneven, and the comparison between men and women is particularly obvious.
It is also because of this that among the female students sent to the Imperial College this year, only one was selected, and all the other places were taken by male students.
The number of male and female quotas set by Zhou Man when he left the capital did not count at all.
She once wrote a note to express her objection to this, but firstly, she was not in the capital and could not compete with them; secondly, the Imperial College overturned Zhou Man's original rules by saying "merit-based admission".
Xiao Yuan struggled for a few words and then acquiesced.
Zhou Man took Mrs. Tang's hand, looked at her affectionately and said: "Sister-in-law Tang, you also said that many people in Beijing envy and admire me. In this case, there is no envy and admiration among the little girls behind their family.
Mine?"
"If you have this ambition, why not contact me. Although I am in Qingzhou now, I can still barely speak in the Imperial Medical Office. If they want to enter the official career, I can give them a chance."
Mrs. Tang: "...to be a doctor?"
"Hey, it doesn't have to be a doctor. The Imperial Medical Office is now on par with the Nine Temples. There are many positions in it. In addition to Beijing, there are also medical offices in various places that need people. Classical medicine, chief bookkeeper, etc. are all civil servants. There is no need.
If you go to see a doctor in a sitting hall, you still need to understand medical medicine."
Mrs. Tang:......
Seeing Zhou Man's serious face, she became serious too, took her hand and said, "Man Bao, this is a very difficult thing. It can even be said that it is impossible."
She said: "There is not only a woman in the world who can do what you do, not only in the past and present, but also in the future. I am afraid you are the only one."
"Which daughter of aristocratic families is not noble? It is impossible for them to run around like the master of medicine in your medical department," Mrs. Tang said: "It is one thing that they cannot accept it in their hearts, nor can the elders in the family.
It will be allowed."
Zhou Man pursed his lips, "...you just said that if you were born a few years later, you would also go to the Imperial Medical Office."
Mrs. Tang said proudly: "There are not many people like me in this world."
Zhou Man:……
Mrs. Tang looked at her and smiled and said: "You have never taken care of Bai Shan's back house. You earn all your honor by yourself, so you probably don't know where a woman's honor comes from?"
"Husband?"
"Half and half," Mrs. Tang pulled Zhou Man to sit down on a chair under the tree and said, "Their honor is half that of the back house. As a husband and wife, one will be prosperous and one will suffer."
"A qualified head wife, in addition to taking good care of her husband and educating her children, is also responsible for taking care of the family's property and finances." Mrs. Tang raised her chin slightly and said, "For example, the property of the Tang family is not only owned by my father-in-law.
One part, and the rest is in my hands.”
"Everything Tang He eats and drinks has to pass through my hands. If one day he annoys me and I don't give him money, he will be poor." Mrs. Tang lowered her voice and said: "
Clan wife, it’s not easy for her to manage a family well, but it’s easy to destroy a family.”
Zhou Man was stunned.
Mrs. Tang said softly: "So don't underestimate the women in the back house. Except for women in this world who have great abilities and ambitions like you, other noble ladies will envy and admire you, but they will not take this difficult path like you."
Road. Because they can obtain the glory and wealth brought by becoming an official through their husbands and families."
Zhou Man: "What if I can't get it?"
Mrs. Tang then spread her hands and said, "Can they achieve the same achievements as you if they become officials?"
She looked at Zhou Man and smiled and said: "I don't mean to praise you, this is the truth. Even if there are still women who can achieve your official position in the future, they will not be able to achieve what you have achieved now. I'm afraid your official position and title will be reduced."
Become the only one in Dajin."
"When other women enter the officialdom, they are more likely to be imperial doctors. They are ordered by the local medical office. These are those who are good at medical skills. Those who are not good at medical skills are just like you said, making classic medicines and books, and then fighting with men to become imperial doctors.
Office," Mrs. Tang paused and then said: "But how many civilian positions are there in the Imperial Medical Office? How many women among them can sit in those positions?"
"Such hard work is not as fast and easy as supporting your husband and raising your own son."
Zhou Man: "...I am not an official just for glory and wealth."
She seems to have all the glory and wealth now.
Mrs. Tang then smiled and nodded her nose and said: "So we need to get rid of people who have the same great ambitions and talents as you. We ordinary people think about fame, wealth, glory and wealth."
"Okay," Zhou Man found that he could not convince Mrs. Tang, so he could only slump his shoulders, "The Imperial College does not agree to open a women's school, hasn't the empress never thought of opening a women's school herself?"
She muttered: "If the empress can open a school for girls and recruit more girls from small households, and wait until they are literate and know the truth, maybe I can recruit some of them to the Imperial Medical Office."
After muttering, Zhou Man was stunned, and Mrs. Tang was also stunned. The two looked at each other, and Mrs. Tang saw that her eyes were getting brighter and brighter, and she didn't know if they were facing the sun.
Her eyes were as bright as holding stars.
Mrs. Tang returned to the room and sat beside Master Tang's bed.
Mr. Tang was lying down honestly. Seeing that she looked at him and didn't say anything for a long time, he carefully reported: "I got out of bed for convenience today and didn't even go out through the courtyard door."
Mrs. Tang came back to her senses and glanced at him, "If you don't leave the courtyard, then you have to leave the house?"
Mr. Tang admitted his mistake honestly, "Madam, I was wrong."
Mrs. Tang ignored him and continued to sit blankly.
