Like our article, you may wish to follow the following way to "pin" it!
Democritus said, "Honor and wealth, without ingenuity, are very unreliable possessions." ”
No matter what era, talent, talent and talent are the most reliable things. Family, love, money, and real estate may all leave us, but once we have knowledge in our minds, it will always be in our minds and used for us.
Yan Shiyu, who came from the Mendi family, was well aware of this, even if her husband died, her family property was robbed, and she was imprisoned, she also let her daughters read poetry and become knowledgeable and wise, and then her four daughters, three of whom became university presidents, confirmed that "talent is the most reliable asset.".

The family road is in the middle of the road, and it is difficult to live a difficult life
Yan Shiyu was Lü Fengqi's second wife, and when Lü Fengqi was alive, the Lü family could be described as a famous and prestigious family, not only Shuxiang Mendi, but also a well-known Huishang merchant. The family has a collection of 30,000 volumes, and Lü Fengqi, who was once a middle scholar and the first, also held positions such as assistant repair of the National History Museum, which can be described as a lifelong deal with books.
Lü Fengqi was born in the Xiangmendi, a man of integrity, integrity and integrity, and as a middle-aged official, he gradually understood that he was not suitable for the flattery of the officialdom, and he wanted to live in a secluded corner like Tao Qian and returned to his hometown of Lu'an, Anhui.
But it also became the beginning of the family's misfortune. The second son born to his wife was extremely ideological, because after skipping school and being educated by Lü Fengqi, he could not bear to hang himself; after that, the only remaining son also died of illness;
After losing his son one after another, Lü Fengqi became depressed, and within a few years, he also drove to the west of the crane, leaving Yan Shiyu's mother and daughter five. But even if the family is big, in that era of patriarchy and patriarchal supremacy, there is no male in the family, and Yan Shiyu's mother and daughter are all bullied.
The Lü family had a rich family property, at this time, the Lü family saw that there were only five of them in the family, so they wanted to seize these family properties, and also joined forces with bandits to kidnap Yan Shiyu and her young daughter to threaten and persecute, fortunately, the clever third daughter wrote a letter to Lü Fengqi's old colleagues, and the two were able to escape.
But the world was cold, and the Wang family, who had intermarried with generations, fell into a well and forcibly withdrew from marriage. In that era, women who retired from marriage would be pointed out and looked down upon by the world. Yan Shiyu's mother and daughter had no choice but to give up their family property and run to Yan Shiyu's brother's house.

Teach by example and persevere
Yan Shiyu herself was born in Xiangmendi, inherited her grandmother's independent ideas, and was deeply influenced by her poetry and insights. Yan Shiyu is not only of good character, but also extremely talented and persevering, and when she married late like her grandmother, she was a new-age woman with mature ideas when she married, which also had some useful ideas in educating children.
As the saying goes: parents are the first teachers of children, and the words and deeds and morals of parents will affect the growth and development of children.
It is also because Yan Shiyu's independent thinking, unique insights, and three views are pure, which sets a good indicator for her daughters. After Yan Shiyu had a child, she also taught and instructed her daughters to write and paint like her mother taught her when she was a child, which made her daughters who were already talented and intelligent even more accomplished than ordinary people.
Even though his life has suffered a series of major changes, Yan Shiyu still pays attention to the education of his daughters. Backward in the family road, Yan Shiyu tried his best to send his third daughter Lü Bicheng to her uncle's family with a wealthy family in order to broaden her daughter's horizons, so that she could contact more ideas and personalities in an open environment.
It is precisely because they have experienced personnel changes since childhood and experienced the coldness of the past that Yan Shiyu's four daughters have more of their own experience and perception of social and human feelings, will be more transparent, stronger and more tenacious than ordinary people, and will face the changes after that in a more mature way, and break out of their own world in the stormy old society.

There are poems in the belly, reversing fate
Yan Shiyu's eldest daughter can compose poetry at the age of nine and is good at painting; the second daughter is good at ancient poetry; the fourth daughter is also proficient in poetry; the most brilliant third daughter, Lü Bicheng, can make huge landscape maps at the age of seven, and at the age of twelve, she is good at controlling seals, transliteration, and poetry.
Her four gifted daughters, under her cultivation, full of poetry and talent, and it is precisely because the four daughters have ink in their bellies and are very talented that they can stand out among many people in the late Qing Dynasty and early Minchu period, when the world began to pay attention to the education of women, and flashed the unique light of independent women.
Lü Huiru became the president of Nanjing Jiangnan Girls' Public School, Lü Meisun served as the honorary principal of Fengtian Girls' School, Lü Bicheng served as the principal of Tianjin Beiyang Women's Normal School, becoming the leader of one of the few women's schools, and Lü Kunxiu also worked as a female teacher at Xiamen Women's Normal School.
Why can they get rid of their fate, seize the opportunity, and turn the tables against the wind? The reason is their talent. They originally had a good family and a good family, but because of the accident, they left them, and only the knowledge they learned since childhood was still with them. Because of talent, when encountering opportunities, we can better grasp opportunities and achieve ourselves.
Lü Bicheng went to Tianjin alone when he was only 20 years old, and from Tianjin to the literary world and then to the political arena, becoming one of the outstanding women in that period.
It is her full of talent, encountering an era that urgently needs change, so that she is talented and literary, writing many ingenious poems and splendid articles, and is known as "the last female lyricist in the past three hundred years" and the first female writer in China.
Subsequently, her sisters also worked in literature and found a career that made her shine. They are even more in the era of change, see the situation clearly, go south to do business, and finally turn against the wind, and their families are rich.
Yan Shiyu also lived a comfortable life in her later years, even though she had suffered changes, her husband died, and her family property was robbed, but because of her prophetic teaching: the cultivation of talents, three of her four daughters became the principals of the girls' school, turning her life upside down.

Later, Lü Bicheng studied abroad, traveled around, and enriched her own knowledge, so that her talent continued to accumulate, even if she was unmarried for life, but she had talent and wealth, which was her maverick and the basis for a happy life.

Talent is the most reliable wealth, others can rob you of your money, sell your family property, ruin your future, but can not steal your talent. Cultural capital is the fundamental productive force of people, with cultural capital, do not worry about a poor life, talent and wisdom will let us re-accumulate wealth, like Yan's mother and daughter, accumulate talent, after a period of hardship, once again have a good life.
When accumulating knowledge, do not worry about making money in advance, accumulating cultural capital is more important than making money. The nouveau riche are only a minority, and the people who are full of poetry books that eventually create business legends are the majority.
Especially in this day and age, talented people can often get more people's appreciation, so that they have more choices and go to a larger platform to show their talents and ambitions.
