|A giant in academia and a model for the world.⭐Leave Yangming's hometown, go east along the main road, and visit Cai Yuanpei's former residence. When you come to Jie Min Square, Cai Yuanpei's former residence is located here, which is the hometown of the sage. ✔️There is a statue of Cai Yuanpei in the square, and there is also a wall next to it, which says "A giant in academia and a model for the world", which is the great man's evaluation and summary of his life. ✔️There is a modern-style building on the side of the square, called Jie Min Library. Next to it, there are white walls and gray tiles. The houses are exposed from the screen wall, and there is a pagoda on Jishan Mountain. Follow the sign, in the quiet alley, find the gate of the former residence. ✔️Cai Yuanpei's former residence is a traditional Shaoxing platform gate building, which was purchased by his grandfather during the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty. It initially had three halls, and later added five floors and five bottoms to the house for three generations to live together. Cai Yuanpei's father was the eldest son, and he was divided into one floor and one bottom, plus a riding building. On January 11, 1868, Cai Yuanpei was born here and spent his childhood and adolescence here. Subsequently, every time he returned to Shaoxing, he also lived here. ✔️Part of the former residence is preserved as it is, and part of it is arranged as a memorial hall to help tourists understand Cai Yuanpei's life. ✔️Cai's ancestral home is Zhuji, and he moved to Shanyin at the end of the Ming Dynasty. Cai's grandfather was a pawnshop manager, and he bought this property with a little savings. Cai's father was a bank manager, but he died relatively early. His mother, Mrs. Zhou, was smart and capable, and raised her children. ✔️He was diligent and studious, participated in the imperial examination and became a scholar, and entered the Hanlin revision. After the failure of the Hundred Days' Reform, he resigned and returned to his hometown, and embarked on the road of "education to save the country". ✔️In the late Qing Dynasty, he served as the first president of the Guangfu Society, among which Tao Chengzhang, Xu Xilin, and Qiu Jin were important members, known as the "Three Heroes of the Revolution of 1911", and the Guangfu Society was later incorporated into the Tongmenghui. During his tenure as the Minister of Education and the President of Peking University, he hired Lu Xun to work together. After Lu Xun's death, he spared no effort to promote the publication of "The Complete Works of Lu Xun". ✔️In the troubled times of the Republic of China, his life can be described as ups and downs, and he has experienced several resignations, going abroad and other changes, but his patriotic and national salvation heart has remained unchanged. He is committed to abolishing the feudal education system and laying the foundation for China's new education. His historical contributions have been widely praised by all walks of life.
