Chapter 34 Study hard and improve every day

At the end of April 1857, the two empress dowagers arrived in Guangzhou and Luan entered the Guanyin Mountain Palace.

On the balcony on the second floor of the Lotus Building, there was a purple casual outfit wandering around."

Rong'er suddenly felt bitter. How could she go out to see people in this strange outfit?

Seeing her appearance, Ye Zhao began to learn from the big bad wolf and he was very tempted: "Rong'er, do you support me?"

Needless to say, Rong'er nodded quickly.

Ye Zhao sighed, as if he had a heavy face: "Then you should know that my husband is in Guangzhou to implement the new policy, eliminate bad habits, and change his concepts. If you want to make progress in your thoughts, you must first break the old concepts. The clothing should be a controversial one hundred schools of thought. How beautiful it is, how can you wear it? How can you have certain rules? You say, do you think this dress is beautiful?"

While wearing several clothes my husband liked, Rong'er secretly looked in the mirror. She felt that she was beautiful but couldn't say she was beautiful, but she had a unique taste and was fun to wear.

But when my husband asked, Rong'er had to light a little head.

Even though he knew Rong'er was following her wishes, Ye Zhao was even more striking, "You see, do you think it's beautiful, but no one dared to be the first in Guangzhou City. If the wife doesn't support me, who will support me?" He shook his head and sighed, looking as if he was hit without fulfilling his ambitions.

When Rong'er saw her husband's appearance, she felt distressed. Without hesitation, she held her husband's hand, and her little face was full of resoluteness and said, "Then, let's go. I will wear the clothes that my husband likes in the future!" Why don't you be afraid of going to hell for the sake of her husband's sake?

Ye Zhao felt soft in his heart. This little guy really ignored anything for himself. She has been a legitimate education since childhood and has abides by the moral character of every word and deed. But for herself, "feudal ethics" can be abandoned.

Although she regretted pretending to deceive her, she thought that only by letting her get rid of some bonds can she be happier and happier in the future and enjoy the world with herself. Now she can’t deceive her.

When Ye Zhao and Rong'er were wearing "couple outfits" and walked side by side on the pebble road through the moon gates and heading towards the garden. Looking at the maids and servants at a loss, Rong'er was not as embarrassed as she imagined, but her little thoughts were full of sweetness, as if her little shoulders were helping her husband to support half of the sky, and finally helped her husband.

"I'm so kind to my husband, please give me my husband!" In front of the crescent door of the garden, a male servant could not dodge. He walked to the door opposite the husband and wife, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed.

Rong'er had a stern face and said childishly: "Why are you panic?"

The man was panicked because he saw his master and mistress wearing strange clothes. This was disrespectful. It would be better to not see it or not.

But how dare I say this? I kneel there and don’t dare to move.

If Rong'er's stern face now looks naturally cute in Ye Zhao's eyes, it's different in the eyes of the servants. The mistress is majestic in the whole mansion, and the maids and servants dare not say a word in their hearts.

Rong'er continued to say childishly: "Did you look at my husband and I'm ugly?"

"Slaves dare not!" The male servant kowtowed in fear.

Rong'er snorted coldly: "What's your name?"

"Slave, slave Wang Zhuangzhuang!" The male servant kowtowed repeatedly.

Rong'er said: "When I go back, I ask someone to send you the pattern of my husband's clothes and I. You and your wife will do the same. You two will wear it and go around Guangzhou City for a few times!"

The male servant almost fainted, but he dared not to obey, so he had to keep kowtowing.

Rong'er then took a small step and entered the garden with her husband. The servants in the mansion were disdainful of discipline, so she naturally had to do it herself. Even without the rules, it would be better?

There are hundreds of flowers competing for beauty in the garden, but under the rockery, there are colorful purples and colorful magnetic basins, especially a pot of Yangzhou red peony, with pink beards hanging like tassels, which are extremely gorgeous.

Rong'er does nothing every day and often comes to the flower garden. Ye Zhao is rare to come here once. He asks this and that with great enthusiasm. Rong'er knows all kinds of flowers, tells them in a leisurely manner, and explains them to her husband childishly. The names of these flowers, when will they bloom and when will they wither, and what legends do they have, etc.

Ye Zhao heard it with relish and couldn't help but sigh: "Rong'er, you are really an encyclopedia. When will your husband understand you?" From the heart, even if he was a human being for two lifetimes, sometimes he felt ashamed in front of this little Rong'er.

Rong'er was embarrassed to be praised, and asked curiously: "What is an encyclopedia?"

Ye Zhao smiled and said, "Five Cars are encyclopedias with great knowledge."

Rong'er stuck out her tongue after hearing this: "That husband is the encyclopedia, and he knows much more than Rong'er."

Ye Zhao smiled and pressed her little hat, "My wife, don't be humble. It's a good idea that you think of. I'll ask the servants of the family to take their wife out in couple outfits tomorrow."

Rong'er was a little helpless, and it didn't matter if he punished one or two, but the servants of the general's mansion went out in such an incongruous way, what's the point?

Ye Zhao then shook his head again, knowing that he was whimsical and had to take things slowly, and he could not turn the general's mansion into a laughing stock in the eyes of others.

Speaking of which, when I came back this time, I found that there were more women and even girls on the streets in Guangzhou. I also heard that some prostitutes in the hall wore Western skirts and showed off their white thighs and even attracted customers. Of course, they were only limited to the hall.

As for the streets of Guangzhou, except for the barbarians, the most elegant thing for women is probably the green cloth cheongsam coming from Shanghai. Although the cheongsam is very small and has long stockings and legs, it does not reveal the skin, but exposing the curve of the tightly wrapped calf to show beauty, which has been a great improvement.

I don’t want to become the style of future generations that regards revealing as beauty, but I dare to show that I am the first thing for women to come out to work. From the perspective of social division of labor, men and women have been unequal since ancient times, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to achieve equality in the future. However, it is not a good tradition to imprison women at home.

Looking at Rong'er, Ye Zhao suddenly had an idea and said, "Rong'er, what do you do in the mansion every day? Isn't it quite boring?"

Rong'er opened her eyes wide in surprise: "No." Speaking of which, Rong'er was so happy every day, but she never felt that there was something wrong with her life.

"Would you be fine if you go to school, too?" Ye Zhao said with a smile.

Rong'er thought to herself that Rong'er is over the age of hiring a teacher, and only unmarried children can learn.

Ye Zhao smiled and said, "In a few days, Guangzhou National First Primary School will start school. This is also my husband's new move. How about you help me and experience it?"

Rong'er had a bitter face and couldn't say she didn't support her husband, but she heard that she came to this school, and her married wife, how could she go to the same group of older men to study in the same school?

Ye Zhao could guess Rong'er's thoughts and said, "Although men and women are in the same school, men and women are in the same class, and the women who teach women's classes are all female professors. Wife, can I still harm you? I don't want to be with other wild men!" The first national primary school deliberately did not divide the boys' schools and girls' schools, thinking that the trend was the first, but after all, traditional concepts, male and female classes must be divided.

When Rong'er goes to school, she doesn't have to be bored at home every day. She can learn some knowledge and make new friends of the same grade. Wouldn't she win a few goals in one fell swoop?
