Guo Peng is familiar with Cai Yan's story.

"Eighteen Beats of Hu Zi" and "Poems of Sorrow and Anger" are also very famous.

Guo Peng was moved by the woman who had been wandering all her life in this troubled and troubled times.

Her sister was much luckier and was granted by Cai Yong to Taishanyang clan, and she gave birth to several sons safely, one of which was Yang Hu, the hero of Jin to destroy Wu.

They are all young now, Cai Yan is thirteen years old, Cai Wan is only nine years old, Cai Yan is upright and beautiful, with a gentle temperament. Although Cai Wan is young, she is also steady and dignified, and it can be seen that she has received a good education.

For women today, it is not necessary to have good talent. As long as they know how to be filial to their parents-in-law and take care of their husbands and raise their sons, education is also an ambiguous thing.

Among them, having a son is the most important point. As long as you can have a son, other problems are harmless.

During this period, it was very common for women to remarry.

It is not difficult for a widow who has married and has children or divorced women to remarry. For example, the wife of Han Prime Minister Chen Ping married five husbands one after another, and Chen Ping was her sixth husband.

The empresses of emperors of all dynasties in the Han Dynasty also had widows remarried. There were many widows among Cao Cao's wives. After Liu Bei entered Sichuan, the empress was also a widow. There was no social pressure to remarry widows.

Comrade Cao Cao also received the nickname "Cao Wife".

And there are profound social factors in this.

First, the Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism has not yet appeared and has not yet become the official guiding ideology, and the folk customs are generally relaxed and open.

The two are due to the necessity of continuing the descendants. The ancients regarded the inheritance of incense as destiny and attached great importance to it.

At that time, the conditions for childbirth were very poor, and the survival rate of infants and young children was extremely low. From the emperor to the common people, it was impossible to ensure that their children could grow up healthy and safely.

Under such circumstances, the advantages of marrying women, especially those who have given birth to children, over the unmarried girls are particularly obvious.

They have experience in giving birth, are not unfamiliar with giving birth, are not unfamiliar with being raised, and are not afraid of having success in giving birth and raising children. The chances of success in giving birth and raising are higher than those of girls, and the survival rate of offspring is also relatively higher.

In this case, for the sake of continuing the offspring, it is not surprising that widows, especially widows who have been raised, will remarry, and they will even be scrambled to marry.

Cai Yong loves his daughter and is willing to give her a good education, which is also good for them.

Mothers who raise children understand cultural knowledge and are talented, which is very beneficial to their children's education since childhood.

After the two stood firm, Cai Yong said, "Guo Fujun and I met my father for the past ten years. We were able to meet each other. We were so happy for my father that you can play a song together to celebrate the joy of reunion. How about it?"

"yes."

Cai Yan and Cai Wan nodded together, then sat aside, and a servant took the piano and handed it to them. The two sisters looked at each other, nodded, and started playing.

Guo Peng is still the one who doesn’t understand the piano. He didn’t understand the piano twelve years ago, but he still didn’t understand the piano ten years later. The sound of the piano that fell into his ears could tell whether it sounded good or bad, and there were more.

But accompanied by a faint incense and listening to the pleasant sound of the piano, it is also a rare and luxurious enjoyment of this era.

Where can we pursue more?

After the song was played, Guo Peng politely praised Cai Yong's behavior of carefully teaching his daughter, and said that he would also seriously educate and tutor his son.

"Zifeng still doesn't understand the piano, right?"

Cai Yong laughed: "You and I first met twelve years ago, you don't understand the piano. Now twelve years later, you still don't understand the piano, hahahaha!"

"Why should Mr. Cai do this?"

Guo Peng smiled bitterly: "Students are really not very talented in piano art. They are not as talented as two female princes, nor as talented as Cai Gong."

"Hahaha, talented strange handle..."

Cai Yong smiled and shook his head, and the smile on his face revealed some self-deprecation: "Zifeng, I hope I can be as talented as you, as a soldier!"

Cai Yong said and pointed at his two daughters.

"You told me early in the morning that qin, chess, calligraphy and painting are a path for the country. Over the years, I have felt this more and more. When encountering thieves and chaos, can we use qin, chess, calligraphy and painting to make them know their mistakes? In the years of famine, can we use qin, chess, calligraphy and painting to make the people full? When encountering foreign enemies invasion, can we use qin, chess, calligraphy and painting to defeat them?"

Cai Yong sighed deeply.

"I wish I was good at what Zigan was good at. In that case, I could fight for the country, quell the rebellion, and leave a name in history. Perhaps, it is precisely because of this that I have no son and only have two daughters!"

Cai Yong's words made Cai Yan and Cai Wan lower their heads and speak without saying anything, and they seemed a little depressed.

What else can Guo Peng say?

Do you want to say that women can hold half of the sky?

Shaking his head and smiling, thinking about it and saying something, Guo Peng slowly spoke.

"Students once heard that Mencius lost his father in his early years. In order to give Mencius a better living environment, Mencius's mother moved her family's residence three times and moved to the tomb for the first time. Mencius was influenced by his knowledge and learned to be buried and cry.

Meng's mother said that this was not a place where children could live, and then Meng's mother moved her address to the city. Mengzi was influenced by her and learned to sell goods on the street and bargain. Meng's mother felt that this was not a place where children could live.

The third time, Meng's mother abandoned the market and chose to settle next to the butcher's house. Mengzi pretended to slaughter livestock. Meng's mother still felt that she could not live here, so she chose the fourth time.

This time, Meng's mother chose to settle next to the palace. Later, Meng's mother saw Mencius's knowledge of etiquette, and then she felt that it was a place where she could live and a place where children could grow up correctly. Only then did Mencius become a sub-saint.

Although Mencius was talented, if it were not for such a knowledgeable mother who paid attention to her teachings from childhood and did not move her residence, she might become a vendor, a butcher, rather than a sub-saint.”

Guo Peng paused and said, "The same is true for the education of children. Children are raised by their mothers after they are born. If they are not smart, wise and talented mothers, how can they teach their children by example and make them a person who understands etiquette and kindness?"

As he said that, Guo Peng pointed at Cai Yan and Cai Wan again, and said, "The two female princes are talented and polite. In the future, they will also make their children talented and polite, and cultivate useful talents for the country. How could this not be the credit of Mr. Cai and the two female princes?"

When Cai Yan heard this, his eyes lit up, and his mood was no longer as depressed as before, he secretly looked at Guo Peng.

Cai Wan was a little confused when she heard this, but she was in a better mood than before.

After hearing this, Cai Yong was silent for a while, sighed and smiled.

"What Zifeng said does make sense."

After saying that, Cai Yong asked Cai Yan and Cai Wan to stand up and stand in front of him.

"Did you remember what Guo Fujun said?"

"Remember."

Cai Yan and Cai Wan responded in unison, and Cai Yong nodded and asked them to go down.
