Chapter 175
A bandage two meters long,A: How long will it take Yang Yuyan to finish sewing?
Yang Yuyan: one week ……
Without her fiancé Su by her side, there was surprisingly no place for Second Miss Yang in the Little Red House!
Yang Yuchan every day with Shi Wuwei together sewing bandages, on behalf of the professor every day with Zhu Yanshu together to discuss the book, Zhang Ma every day to go to the school’s Catholic Church with the cafeteria help aunts and aunts to talk about gossip.
Silence and boredom of the second Miss Yang had to find their own things to do, and even made a great effort to sew their own finished a bandage.
Alas, life is as lonely as snow.
The students in the school have found that only by hand sewing bandage efficiency is too low, they immediately will be the school’s two sewing machines for teaching to use up. Previously on the sewing class only female students, now the male students also stepped on the sewing machine a swing a swing extraordinarily skillful. The two poor sewing machines had no rest time since then, and were shaken 24 hours a day, day and night.
Handmade bandages soon left the stage of history.
When Yang Yuyan finished sewing a roll of bandages, she realized that everyone was competing to light up a new skill: stepping on the sewing machine.
Yang Yuyan went to watch a few times, and found that everyone was not afraid of getting their fingers stuck with needles, and everyone on the machine stepped on the machine very fast, and almost all of them just knew how to step on the sewing machine in less than two days, or had only used it once or twice.
It didn’t matter if you got stuck with a needle, the female students in the infirmary couldn’t wait to practice stitching and bandaging on people! It would be even better if they could contribute their arms or butts for them to stick a couple of needles in.
Yang Yuyan, after silently watching, thought it would be better to sew slowly and by hand.
The Japanese teachers at the school were in no hurry to set any new trends. Perhaps because they were not celebrities after all, they did not need to be in the spotlight every day.
School life began to become regular and calm.
The Japanese students still didn’t fit into the overall school environment, and they still spent their days huddled in the Japanese building. The male students shouted louder every morning during gym workouts, so many of the school’s hooligan and asshole students began to speak in a conspiratorial imitation of the Japanese students, Itaya Itaya shouting every day and shouting even louder when they encountered a Japanese student.
The Japanese schoolgirls had a lot of homework every day, they didn’t even have time for sports, they only did activities in front of the Japanese building.
Yang Yuyan suspected that the Japanese teacher was worried about the Japanese female students’ problems before assigning them so much work.
Because it was surprising that the Japanese female students had to be responsible for all the work such as cleaning, cooking, laundry and so on.
And then they also had to stay elegant and beautiful. Every one of them had to be neatly dressed when they appeared in front of people, their hair had to be combed, they had to walk with their heads bowed, and they had to not walk in front of the men, and so on.
This is all together in class, Yang Yuyan listen to the Japanese female students.
A Japanese female student smiled, mouth full of caries. I don’t know why, Japanese students are particularly nasty, more girls than boys.
Prof. Dai said it was because of the lack of supplies in Japan, where most people did not have enough to eat, not enough calcium and used to use salt to brush their teeth, it is easy to caries.
Is that so?
I can’t believe there’s such a thing.
I guess because they knew that caries was bad, Japanese female students covered their mouths when they laughed.
The Japanese teacher, Ms. Sakai, made it a point to teach her female students how to smile in class.
“You should turn your body like this, cover your mouth, bow your head slightly, and you shouldn’t laugh too loudly! It should be smaller than the sound of a bird chirping, so that it’s melodious.”
This Sakai-sensei always talks about stuff like this in class. About how women should keep their heads down when walking on the street is what she said.
“A woman should walk with her head down, she shouldn’t look around, she shouldn’t walk in the middle of the road, she should walk on one side. If you meet a man walking with you, then you should not walk in front of him, you can stop and wait for a while, and then you can walk again after the man passes.”
Yang Yuyan was really amazed to hear this.
Of course, what came next was even more astonishing to her.
Because this Japanese female teacher blatantly said right in the classroom that men are more noble than women.
“As a woman you should understand that men are more valuable to this country and to your family. They put in the labor, they put in the strength, they earn the money to support their families, they protect the country and its people, and they likewise protect your safety. That’s why you should have respect for men at all times, and honor them.”
Yang Yuyan was dumbstruck. Perhaps because her eyes were so wide, Sakai-sensei looked at her several times.
When the class was over, Yang Yu Cicada breathed a sigh of relief and told her that just now she had been afraid that Yang Yu Yan would jump up and retort to Sakai-sensei.
Yang Yuyan said blankly, “Refute? Why would I retort?”
Yang Yu Cicada was even more surprised and asked her, “You were even able to listen?”
Yang Yuyan said, “I used to wonder why Japanese women were like that. Now that I’m listening to this teacher’s lessons I realize that they grew up with this kind of education.”
Hearing their conversation, Fu Peixian also came over and said, “My family used to have a Japanese maid, but at that time I didn’t speak to her because we didn’t speak the same language. I didn’t expect that Japanese women would still receive this kind of backward education in modern society.”
At this point, Fu Peixian did feel that China was ahead of Japan. Nowadays, the education of the three subordinates and four virtues is seldom heard in Chinese society. Women are gradually awakening, and the whole society is creating the conditions for women’s awakening.
Yang Yuchan said, “Because we are more influenced by the United States than Japan.”
Indeed. This is what Yang Yuyan didn’t know before, now in this world, China is more closely connected to the United States, so the fashion news from the United States side is always the earliest to come to China, faster than the news from France, the United Kingdom, Japan, or even from other provinces and cities. American ships used to arrive in port almost every day, and even now, when the Japanese had taken over the port and it was hard for ships from other countries to come in, American ships still managed to come in.
She had always thought that at this point in time, all foreign countries were supposed to be enemies, but she hadn’t realized that the United States had a layer of friendly country’s skin on it as well. But America only did business with China, unlike Japan, which brought in its army. American medicines and weapons are now the most popular commodities, this is even Yang Yuyan know the news.
It’s reported in the newspaper every day.
Because the whole school has been working hard on crafts lately, Ms. Sakai also talked about wanting everyone to do crafts in class.
She was going to teach everyone to make the Japanese flag.
“Let’s dedicate this flag to the great Empire of Japan.” Ms. Sakai’s wrinkled but powdered face smiled and said.
Yang Yuchan and Fu Peixian and the other female students looked at Yang Yuyan.
And Yang Yuyan, of course, didn’t move a muscle.
Mr. Sakai turned his head to Yang Yuyan and smiled, “Fellow student Yang, why aren’t you moving?”
Yang Yuyan smiled and said, “I’m sorry, Mr. Sakai, but in my house, this is a servant’s job, and I don’t know how to do it. If I were to do it, it would be too much and I would be ridiculed. If you need a Japanese flag, it’s easy, I can pay someone to do it, is that okay?”
Sakai-sensei: “This is dedicated to His Majesty the Emperor, Yang, you should make it yourself to represent your respect for the Emperor.”
Yang Yuyan: “Teacher, maybe you don’t understand. Even our emperor has no right to ask his consort to make clothes for him. Our emperors have a special department for making clothes by palace maids and eunuchs.”
Sensei Sakai: “So what if the emperor of your country asked you to do it?”
Yang Yuyan blinked and said, “I’m afraid not. If the emperor of my country were to select courtesans to serve in the palace right now, I would not be among those selected, and there are family names and clans that specialize in serving the emperor. The Emperor has to follow the rules as well.”
Ms. Sakai fell silent and looked to the other Chinese female students.
“In your families, are the underlings also the ones who cut the clothes?” She asked.
Yang Yuchan didn’t have to answer, and Fu Peixian and the others, needless to say, all had underlings in their families. Moreover, there was Yang Yuyan who had set a good example for them in front.
Fu Peixian said: ”I’m sorry, teacher, although women’s red is part of women’s labor and every woman was required to learn it in times past, it has long since stopped being so preoccupying. In my family, my mother has been preparing me from a young age to be a female red maid, specializing in needlework for me.”
“Me too, my nanny can do everything.”
“My family hired a tailor.”
“Who still makes their own nowadays, don’t they all go to the department store to buy?”
There goes the per capita Missy’s schoolgirl team.
