In Wang Defu's "The Subservient Status of Women", in fact, not only shows the current situation of women being discriminated against in all aspects of today's society, but also writes about many of his ideal states of getting along between men and women, which can be said to have resonated with Chen Qingyan's soul.

It can be described as "confirming the soul and meeting the right person".

This is also one of the important reasons why Chen Qingyan feels that she must meet this strange man in person.

Wang Defu wrote in his essay -

"When they love each other, they are not too different at first, they often participate in the same things, they assist each other with their compassion, and in the things that are only interested in the other person at the beginning, both of them are interested and exert their potential, so that the tastes and personalities of both parties are gradually assimilated, partly because of two changes in daily life that each person is not aware of, and more because they are truly fulfilled.

Each person adds to his own pleasures and abilities the acquisition of another person. This is often the case between two same-sex friends who are close in their daily lives.

In marriage, if it is not the most common phenomenon, it is also a very common phenomenon.

It is almost impossible for two men and women with completely different upbringing to form a real marriage that is very desirable.

If this problem is solved, there may be differences in personal tastes, and as a general rule, at least in terms of the big goals of life, they will be completely consistent.

When both people are concerned about the big goal and help and encourage each other in whatever matters to them, the taste in the small things may be different and it is not the most important thing for them.

A strong friendship, when it has a foundation and a lasting nature, is more likely than anything else to create a greater happiness for each person in his life for another than he gets for himself.

Both are educated and talented people, their opinions and goals are the same, and there is the best kind of equality, similarity of power and ability, and mutual advantages between them, so that each can have fun when he sees the other, and can alternately enjoy the pleasure of leading and being led in the development of both parties. ”

Obviously, Wang Defu hopes that the subservient status of women will truly become an equal status between women and men, and there will be no subordinate disputes, and he hopes that women can have common ideals and pursuits with men.

And this premise is naturally that women should have the same right to education as men, and they should also receive a real elite education, rather than educating them to "three obedience and four virtues", just becoming an accessory to men.

Of course, Wang Defu's idea is indeed particularly ideal and unrealistic, so such things may only appear in his pen.

Chen Qingyan read Wang Defu's unfinished essay, and only felt that it had thoroughly said what he really wanted to express, and said it more profoundly and methodically.

This strong resonance makes Chen Qingyan feel like she has harvested a treasure that fell from the sky, and the person who gave her the treasure is Wang Defu, who she has never masked but has been convinced.

In the eyes of other women, Wang Defu may be just a talented man with flying talents, but in Chen Qingyan's eyes, Wang Defu is clearly a thinker, and his "Listening to the Snow Night" is just a small path he plays in his spare time.

After Chen Qingyan recovered from the shock for a long time, he began to write a reply to Wang Defu with a stirring mood.

Chen Qingyan said that she had received Wang Defu's letter, and after reading his letter very carefully, she had been deeply impressed by the article "The Subservient Status of Women" he wrote, so she was very willing to meet with Wang Defu and help him improve such a masterpiece for women whose right to education is currently restricted!

Chen Qingyan is not the kind of person who likes to say polite words, but this time she said a lot of exaggerated words in the letter, and between the lines, she expressed her admiration for Wang Defu.

Maybe some kind of keen intuition told her that as long as she studied with Wang Defu, a strange man, then what she could gain would definitely be far more than what she could learn in school.

If Wang Defu likes to be a good teacher, then Chen Qingyan is the opposite, she likes to be a student who is full of curiosity, eager to learn everything she doesn't understand, she is the kind of student who can hollow out the teacher.

……

Wang Defu naturally didn't know that the letter he wrote to Chen Qingyan could bring so much touch to the other party, almost making Chen Qingyan, who was in a semi-awake state, fully awake.

However, when he had not received a letter from Chen Qingyan, he received a letter from Ding Mei of the Women's Normal University.

Ding Mei's letter, Wang Defu still has time to take a look, how to say that they are also friends who have had dinner together, and the relationship between the other party and Ling Jingsu is also good, for the sake of Ling Jingsu's face, Wang Defu will not ignore it.

And last time, Ding Mei said that she was also more interested in philosophy, and if she had any philosophical questions, she might ask Wang Defu.

For a guy like Wang Defu who is a good teacher, he can't wait to ask him as many questions as possible, if he can solve the other party's doubts and make the other party's life no longer confused, then he will feel very happy.

There are three ultimate questions in life –

Who am I?

Where am I from?

Where am I going?

Wang Defu is not confused at all about these three ultimate questions, his ideal is to be the mentor of the entire human race, but this is obviously not something that can be done in one step, but he can work in this direction little by little.

He will also try his best to do a good job in the three ultimate questions of materialism -

How to better understand the universe and solve problems about the universe.

How to better understand human society and solve problems related to human beings.

How to better understand your own life and solve problems about life.

For example, the essay "The Subservient Status of Women" written by him can be classified as the second problem, if more and more women are awakened, then the development of human society will be more rapid.

Wang Defu opened the letter from Ding Mei at this time, and the other party's graceful and mellow handwriting was actually inferior to Chen Qingyan's, but Ding Mei obviously wrote very seriously.

Ding Mei's letters are more life-like and fragmentary, and the writing is very verbose, feeling that she is purely homely with Wang Defu, completely aimless, which is also in stark contrast to Chen Qingyan's refined style.

Of course, Wang Defu prefers Chen Qingyan's style, why is there so much meaningless nonsense?

Ding Mei also said in the letter that Wang Defu only needs to post some more articles on "Xuehuan", and the name of the talented man must be confirmed......

Wang Defu directly skipped all the words that praised him, and wanted to see if there were any philosophical questions he could answer.

Fortunately, Ding Mei finally asked the question.
