Chapter 748 - 748: Arrangement

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Ah Yu originally wanted to tell Qin Huai about Grandma’s identity, but she felt that it was not appropriate. If Grandma did not want to expose her identity to more people, wouldn’t she be giving her trouble for nothing?

Therefore, Ah Yu swallowed these words and only told Qin Huai some things about the officialdom.

Qin Huai also told All Yu his understanding. For a moment, the two of them chatted happily.

However, Tang Yuan and Chi Jia felt a little helpless.

They all thought about how their master was young and in the eyes of others, they were both children who hadn’t grown up. In the end, here they were, worrying about the country and the people. The topics they talked about were also very deep. People’s jaws would probably drop if they heard them.

When Ah Yu and Qin Huai talked about lunch, they simply set up a meal in the Little Imperial Garden. The two of them ate and were not in a hurry to go home. They just made small talk.

Qin Huai noticed that All Yu was a little distracted. Clearly, she was hiding something and was not in a hurry to rush her. Instead, he waited for her to say it herself.

In the end, All Yu still felt a little uncomfortable. There were some things that she couldn’t say out loud, so she said to Qin Huai, “Big Brother All You, do you think it’s right or wrong for me to run a women’s academy?”

“What do you think?”

“From the moment I came up with the idea of establishing a women’s academy until now, I’ve always believed that I’m right. But the words the Empress Dowager said to me make me think that maybe it’s just my wishful thinking. What if those women don’t want to enroll, don’t want to learn skills, don’t want to engage in business, and don’t want to participate in examinations like men? What if they just want a simple life of going along with fate, marrying whomever is available? Is it too harsh for me to try to pull them out of their comfort zone?”

Only then did Qin Huai understand that his little fiancee was actually conflicted about this.

“In that case, why don’t you think in another direction? Firstly, you didn’t force anyone. Secondly, you’re only doing your own business. Whether it’s a woman or a man enrolling, in the end, it’s only a place of learning. The academy doesn’t have any reason to suppress and force anyone to attend. Therefore, whether they’re willing to enter the academy, whether they’re willing to learn, and whether they’re willing to change their lives are all their own choices. You didn’t criticize anyone, nor did you hurt anyone. You’re just doing what you want to do and walking towards your original plan. What’s wrong with that?”

Ah Yu was still a little conflicted. “The Empress Dowager told me that Princess Yong Chang had done something similar in the past, but she suffered a crushing defeat.”

“She wanted to open a women’s academy like you?”

“No, she wants women to do business and become officials. Those who jump out and say that they object are all women.”

Qin Huai said, “This is very normal. If I say now that I want a man to return to his family and leave the Imperial Court to enjoy his life, be with his grandchildren, and live a more comfortable life, do you think the people who will jump out and object will be the men or the women?”

“It’s the men, right?” After all, the people who had to leave the familiar living environment were the men.

At first, Ah Yu did not understand. After thinking about it carefully, she understood what Qin Huai meant.

“Therefore, actually, Princess Yong Chang and I have different thoughts. Princess Yong Chang directly placed the answer in front of those people, and I’m only telling them that there are these alternative paths to take. In comparison, my method is more gentle and kind?” Ah Yu roughly understood and no longer felt conflicted. “Looks like I really have to go to Jiangsai to take a look.”

Only in the most difficult and chaotic places could she know what people needed to support themselves..
