Chapter 623: The Talented Lady
Shangguan Wan'er was also envious, but she also felt that this was what she should do, right?
Senior Zhao Ji and Senior Ling Jiang wrote so well and were both famous talented women in history. It is only normal that their poems were selected.
The ancestors in front of the sky, especially the literati, were so envious and jealous. They also wrote poems, and they didn’t know that many famous poets and lyricists were selected. The little fairy himself said that he wanted to cry while reciting the poems.
Naturally, they also hope that their poems can be passed down so that future generations can remember them.
"Does the future generation have to learn so much?
This requires reciting many people's poems," said Cai Wenji. She never expected that she would be one of them. This surprised and delighted Cai Wenji, and she felt that the suffering she had endured before was no longer that bitter.
I didn't expect that thousands of years later, there are still people who remember her, recite her poems, and like her.
"That's indeed quite a lot," Li Wu showed a mask of pain when talking about this. It's not just a lot, it's a very lot, and some of the ancient poems are long and tongue-twisting, making them very difficult to recite.
Fortunately, the days when she needed to memorize things are over. If it were now, she wouldn’t be able to memorize them because her brain wouldn’t be enough.
Our memory is relatively good when we are children, but as we grow older, it gets worse and it seems to be even worse than that of the elderly.
Alas, this generation of theirs is really not as good as the old and not as good as the young.
“Let’s not talk about this anymore, let’s continue talking about Senior Ling Jiang’s deeds.
Senior Ling Jiang, whose name was Xie Daoyuan, also known as Taoyuan and with the courtesy name Lingjiang, was a native of Yangxia County, Chenjun during the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
Senior Ling Jiang, your father is General Anxi Xie Yi, and your uncle is the famous Prime Minister Xie An of Jiangzuo.
The Chenjun Xie family was a very famous family in ancient China and the most prominent family in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Southern Dynasties.
It is conceivable that being born in such a big family, Senior Jiang, you naturally received the best education since childhood.
Don’t say that a woman’s virtue lies in her lack of talent. That is just a lie. Which woman from a wealthy family doesn’t know how to read and write?
Reading more books will be good for you," Li Wu couldn't help but say, hoping that the ancestors would develop quickly so that more women can study, and not favor boys over girls, and not easily deprive a baby of its birth.
In fact, Li Wu herself knew clearly that this kind of thing could never be stopped, and how could she change it with just a few words? But she still hoped that it could be improved so that more girls could survive.
"What the little immortal said is true. Since I made a deal with you, it has become so convenient to write, and the printing technology is really great," Cai Wenji was very excited when she mentioned this. She used bamboo slips before. Although there was paper, it was not popular, so she did not use it much.
Since the appearance of the little fairy, the quality of life has improved greatly.
Writing on paper is much more convenient and faster than on bamboo slips. It is also very light and can be used to write a lot of things.
Printing is also very convenient. You don’t have to copy books laboriously anymore. This way, you can have a lot of books and it is no longer difficult to find books.
Shangguan Wan'er and Xie Daoyun also nodded, "That's true. It's much more convenient. Now, we don't have to worry about not having these good books to read."
Although books are still very scarce, they are much better than before.
Many ancestors in the barrage are also discussing this issue.
The people said that they had gained the curved plow and cement roads, and now the government was having people build roads. Wow, the roads would be really different after they were built.
Whether walking, driving an ox cart, donkey cart, horse cart, or pushing a cart, it is extremely convenient, and much easier to walk on than the old broken mud road.
The literati said that paper is much cheaper nowadays. Although they can't buy good paper, they can afford cheap paper.
You can also borrow books to copy, or read in the book club. It only costs one copper coin for two hours, which is very cheap. You can also borrow them. I learned this from the library that the little immortal mentioned. As for reading books for free, that is really not possible. People in bookstores also have to make money, and one penny is already very cheap.
The soldiers said that now they were using different weapons, and fighting was extremely easy. The foreign tribes did not have these weapons, so they could only open the city gates and surrender, otherwise, they could only blow up the city gates.
There is also a telescope, which is also good. It can see very far and tell where the enemy is from afar.
The comments are all about changes in life. In short, most of them are good changes, too many to count.
Sky
"It's good if there are changes. If there is no change at all, then I will doubt myself," Li smiled foolishly. She traded so many things, and there were rewards during festivals. She was just afraid that some people who had not come up from the dynasty would not be able to trade anything, so she did this.
"Don't doubt it, little fairy. These are all changes brought about by you. I believe things will get better and better in the future," Shangguan Wan'er said, and Xie Daoyuan and Cai Wenji also nodded.
It’s much better now than before. I don’t have much strength to fight, which is already very good.
"That's good, then I will continue to talk about your deeds, Senior Ling Jiang.
Senior Ling Jiang, you have been extremely intelligent and clever since childhood, and have been appreciated by your uncle Xie An since childhood.
Next I will talk about the famous scene," when Li Wu said this, the others already knew what the little immortal was going to say.
"Once, Xie An was giving a lecture to his nephews and nieces at home. It happened that it was snowing heavily outside. Xie An suddenly got excited and pointed at the snow and asked the children: What does the falling white snow look like?
Xie Lang answered first: It's similar to sprinkling salt in the air.
But Xie An was not very satisfied, and at this time he asked Senior Jiang: It is not as good as the willow catkins rising in the wind.
Xie An was particularly happy to hear this, and repeatedly praised Senior Ling Jiang as a talented woman in writing poems about snow.
Senior Ling Jiang, you are indeed talented. If it were me, I would only be hesitant and unable to explain clearly," Li Wu shook his head. He might be able to say it, but what he said might not be satisfactory.
Xie An in front of the skylight stroked his beard and laughed with satisfaction. The niece from that year had grown up to that age. He was very satisfied with this niece. It was a pity that it was not a boy. But it didn't matter if it was not a boy now, a girl could also become an official.
His Xie family is going to have a female official, and this was brought by a little fairy. In order to get rewards, the emperors also strongly support women to become officials.
"How can you belittle yourself, little fairy? You are still very powerful. Everyone has their own strengths. Maybe you are not good at writing poems when you are young, but you are good at other things," said Xie Daoyuan. She felt that the little fairy was very powerful and knew many things that they did not know.
"Yes, little fairy, you are very powerful. You know a lot of things, many of which we don't know," Shangguan Wan'er also said. She looked outside. It was still drizzling, and she didn't know if she could go out today. She really wanted to see the future. How could seeing it in person be the same as seeing it in front of the sky?
