In the feudal society, as a silent group, the ancient Chinese women always followed the male, seldom had their own voice and consciousness. In the Chinese formal traditional culture, learners always controlled the right of speaking, so a majority of low-ranked people kept silence. But, when the male-power-culture covered the mainstream of society culture, there was another hidden rebellion spirit, which lasted for thousands of years. This is the true meaning of feminine spirit.When we research women's anti-conscious through the traces of the history development, we can find out: while the social policies and economic were changing, the women's reaction shared the similarity as well as the difference in fighting method and level.Luofu, the main character of "Moshangsang", who was so brave to fight against the feudal officials face-to-face successfully, she was the pioneer of labor women who were fighting against the violent society. In feudal society, as a saying goes "rejects hundreds of theories, only respects Confucianism", the women had low social rank, Luofu rejected the social requirements such as "Tender", "Suitable", and never afraid of the feudal officials' oppression, and against them without hesitate.The expression of Lanzhi's rebellion character was" back to maternal home herself, which defended her own personality, defended her self-respect. Before she went back to maternal home, she dressed up carefully, used her beauty as the weapon to threat the feudal guardian—Mother Jiao who created this love tragedy .which meant her rebellion emotion, and meant rejection. LiuLanzhi's "strict making-up" expressed the demonstration and rebellion to the feudal guardian by her beauty, had presented LiuLanzhi's strong personality, presented her specially strong characteristics that were hidden in her kind ,gentle heart. It presented a kind of strong self-respect in a weak labor woman's deep nature, presented her unwillingness to follow the feudal guardian, and presented her rebellion individuality.The women's activities just followed family daily routine, Mulan broke the control of family, went to the battle-field as a solider instead of her father, she expressed her living value through her action. In Ming Dynasty, the love songs not only had much more quantities than any other dynasties, but also expressed more brave and liberation feelings in emotion, full of fighting spirits against traditional society.Counter- tradition idea in consciousness:In the folk songs the female developed their human-being self-value, female began their research on living character;Counter- tradition idea in personality:The female against the restriction of feudal value, they had primary consciousness of human rights;Counter- tradition idea in self-value:The female broke their family lives, realized their value of lives, and challenged to the marriage value at that time.In fact, Chinese education is not only an education for Chinese language skill, but for value development .The Chinese education in Middle School is in the very period of students' value developing. And the language pattern makes decidable influence. So the Chinese should pay more attention to value influence. The value function of Chinese education is no less than political and mental education, for the value in Chinese education is latent and imperceptibly.To create the New-Generation female, we should promote the characters as tender, kind and smart of our traditional Chinese female, moreover, we should develop their spirit of the times, such as aggressive, independent, innovation and cooperation, let them adjust to this open society, even to be the "Pioneer" of times.
