Nanyang Female Teacher
Slice of Life南洋女师
Always At Ease
"You want to uproot the Chinese language? Unless you step over my corpse first!" 1951, Southeast Asia Malaya. A piece of paper called the "Barn Report" was published with the intention of destroying Chinese schools. At this turbulent time, the helpless female teacher Lin Wanyi broke into the rubber forest in Klang with a box full of "Guan Wen Guan Zhi". She did not flinch in the face of the difficulties faced by the British colonial government, harassment by gangsters, and even the threat of being deprived of her citizenship. No school building? She turned the pigsty into a school! No textbook? She writes textbooks by hand and writes Nanyang landscapes in Chinese! No funds? She led all the teachers and students in the school to sell welfare lottery tickets and organize a "banquet for thousands of people"! She used modern advanced educational concepts (TCSOL) to reduce the dimensionality of rigid old education; she used her weak shoulders to carry the darkest and most glorious seventy years of Nanyang Chinese Education. "I haven't read a book, but I know that my wife is doing the right thing." Chen Wenxin, the rough man who sells clay pot rice, disliked her at the beginning, but later, in order to protect her, he dared to confront a bulldozer with a shovel, and even sold his family property to support her "great cause." From a rural female teacher in 1951 to a Chinese education godmother in 2026. This is a history of the struggle of Malaysian Chinese with blood and tears, and it is also a soul-stirring song of guardianship of civilization. Even if you are thousands of miles away, never forget the way you came. As long as the roots are there, the tree will live.
