Chapter 146: Provocation of Etiquette

Although Yuan Kewen was reluctant to miss Lu Bicheng, he knew how Lu Bicheng felt about him, and Lu Bicheng was nothing more than because he was too attentive and had always regarded himself as a child, so he quickly gave up his pursuit of Lu Bicheng. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info But this doesn't mean that Lu Bicheng has a hot chat with his brother-in-law, and he can sit idly by, he wanted to interject and refute Wang Yongan several times, but was stopped by his sister, Yuan Nianzhen meant not to disturb their conversation, lest Miss Lu be more angry.

Yuan Kewen is purely a mediocre self-disturbance, in other words, he is full of food, Wang Yongan is just curious about the first talented woman in the Republic of China, and casually said how Chinese women will be liberated in the future.

Wang Yongan has no interest in the fair-skinned and beautiful woman in front of him who exudes the charm of mature women, and he feels that the historical evaluation of Lu Bicheng is inevitably biased, and the historical evaluation of Lu Bicheng is a feminist, but now it seems that Lu Bicheng is just pursuing to break the old concept of suppression of women. And later generations, regardless of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, demonized her, is it just because Lu Bicheng is a staunch supporter of Yuan Shikai?

At this time, Lu Bicheng did not have the glory on the surface, in fact, although she was still the editor of Ta Kung Pao, she was depressed because of the emotional dispute with Yingzhi. Yingzhi and Lu Bicheng knew each other in their early years, but Yingzhi is a banner person, and the flag people generally set a family affair very early, and Yingzhi also obeyed the order of his parents to marry Aixin Jueluo Shuzhong as his wife, but Lu Bicheng could not be a concubine, and the two had love for each other but had no relationship. Later, Yingzhi hired Lu Bicheng as the editor of Ta Kung Pao, and the old relationship between the two rekindled, and Shuzhong could only turn a blind eye. But because of the work relationship, after Yingzhi and Lu Bicheng were together almost all day, they found out how different their concepts were, whether it was their attitude towards the court or their personal values, the two were diametrically opposed, Yingzhi especially hated Lu Bicheng's fashionable dress and liking luxury, thinking that it was immoral, and the two would inevitably have a verbal conflict.

Wang Yongan appeared like a lightning bolt at this time, the fourth prince of Yangzhou was actually a more "radical" person than her, and a more "thorough" person for women, and more importantly, this person who immediately supported women was still a man, how could he not let Lu Bicheng feel like a bosom friend. A man's support for women, even more than the vast majority of persecuted women in this era who choose to bow their heads, how can he not surprise Lu Bicheng.

When he heard Wang Yongan say that in the future, women must participate in politics, and must fight for their rights, the right to education, the right to choose their husbands, the right to occupation, the right not to be discriminated against, the right to exercise and all other rights, Lu Bicheng immediately applauded, saying that the West is not so advanced, and if this is the case, it is an ideal country.

After Wang Yongan and his wife finished their visit and returned to their residence, Lu Bicheng wrote an article overnight, called "Conversation with Jingyun Gongzi", in this article, Lu Bicheng introduced in detail the scene of his first meeting with Jingyun Gongzi Wang Yongan: "A medium-sized, slender young man, wearing a gray robe, with a small jasper wife, came to me, this person smiled slightly, with a magical power in the smile, making people feel cordial and warm, this person is Jingyun Gongzi Wang Yongan. ā€

In the article, Lu Bicheng also put forward Wang Yongan's understanding of women, and Wang Yongan not only kept the liberation of women on his lips, he implemented it, and the recruitment of female students in Yangzhou Military Medical University was promoted by Wang Yongan.

With Lu Bicheng's article, the name of Wang Yongan, the son of Jingyun, was completely resounded in Shanghai and throughout the Qing Dynasty, Wang Yongan was famous all over the world on the one hand, and on the other hand, he was on the cusp. In particular, Wang Yongan's support and insights for female *** made the Confucian defenders hate it so much that they beat their chests.

Many literati and writers have published remarks in newspapers, accusing Wang Yongan's remarks of hurting social ethics, harming the stability of the world, and harming Confucian culture. Western cannons opened the door to China, but did not open the door to the hearts of the Chinese, and the strong xenophobia of Chinese culture determines that even the most advanced civilization must be de-Westernized and sinicized after entering China, so Wang Yongan's description of the future seems to have become synonymous with great rebellion in the eyes of everyone.

Among the opponents, the most vocal was the former foreign ministry chamberlain Gu Hongming, who strongly admired the oriental civilization, especially at the beginning of the year when he wrote the book "The Oxford Movement in China" in English and printed it in the West, which shook the whole of Europe, especially Germany, and some German university philosophy departments even listed the book as a compulsory reference book.

Although Gu Hongming has learned everything from the East and the West, he strongly admires oriental culture, and highly respects the customs such as binding small feet that Wang Yongan opposes, and even thinks that women with small feet are the best among women. And Gu Hongming advocated that men should marry little wives, believing that this is the foundation of social stability. He said that men are teapots and women are teacups, and a teapot must be matched with several teacups, but not a teacup with several teapots.

Wang Yongan's remarks on equality between men and women were undoubtedly a blatant provocation of the morality, values, and outlook on life of Gu Hongming and other defenders, and how could they not arouse the anger of the defenders, so famous scholars denounced Wang Yongan and Lu Bicheng in the newspapers, saying that their remarks were unethical.

In fact, few people in this era can understand that the women's liberation movement is because women do not need to work, and the reason why the women's liberation in Europe in later generations is complete is because Europe has been baptized by two world wars, especially the Second World War, which made Europe lack a large number of men, so that women have to become an important labor force, so women have achieved considerable power and status. In later generations, the United States was more conservative than Europe, and the status of women in the United States was lower than that in Europe, because the United States did not have a disaster in which women became the main labor force in society like Europe.

The reason why the women's society in New China is higher than that of the United States is because when New China was just founded, women became the main force of labor in the whole society. Of course, at that time, the defenders had already been defeated, but now, the defenders hated Wang Yongan.

Fortunately, Wang Yongan was at this time and did not know how much trouble he had caused by his visit to Lu Bicheng, and he was busy with the real estate business.

Huang Jinrong is reliable, he stirred up the shantytowns, and the people in those shantytowns were about to collapse.

It turned out that Wang Yongan helped Huang Jinrong and the British, and Huang Jinrong naturally reciprocated the favor as soon as possible, and he handed over the matter to Du Yuesheng and Zhang Xiaolin.

Du Yuesheng and Zhang Xiaolin are both literate and martial, Du Yuesheng's mind reacts quickly, Zhang Xiaolin can fight, and in a few days, the shantytown will stir up the neighbors, and the people are afraid that they will be driven out by the French, so they have tried to transfer their property. More people chose to stay in the shantytowns, resolutely refusing to move out, and if the French drove them out, they must fight. Of course, it's not that these people don't have money, it's just that they've lived here for 60 years, and they can move out when they say they want.

Some people also planned to go to the French consulate to ask for their lives, but they were arrested by Huang Jinrong and spent a lot of money to redeem them. Huang Jinrong is the Chinese Inspector of the French Concession, doesn't what he does represent the attitude of the French? So the people became desperate, the French really wanted to kill the people in the shantytowns, and force us Chinese people to death.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Wang Yongan "came forward" to be a good man, and he declared that he had bought this land by himself, and specially for the Chinese people to live in, so as not to let the French drive out the Chinese. The people immediately wailed, called Wang Yongan Wang Dashan, and made him the first son of Jiangnan.

In the newspaper, Wang Yongan's name appeared again, but he was not a rebel, but a philanthropist. It's just that the old-fashioned literati still scold Wang Yongan incessantly, no matter how many good things he does, in the eyes of the defenders, Wang Yongan is challenging their morality and worldview, so they will never forgive Wang Yongan. Wang Yongan still ignored the defenders, he was going down to the grassroots to visit the toiling masses, reflecting the kindness and good deeds of Wang Dashan, and the people of the shantytown ushered in such an important big man for the first time - the landlord of the shantytown.
