And so the Chinese call her the nei jen or " inside person. " A woman's place in China, then, is in the home, and in that capacity she rules supreme.
WOMEN 93 In the home a man takes second place. He may be the " Lord of the home, " but he is only lord of the home over which his wife is the socially-appointed presiding officer. This is true in all grades of society, from the poorest peasant to the imperial palace. Of the latter this has been abundantly illustrated during the past fifty years by... the Great Dowager, as well as her successor. For forty-seven years the Great Dowager ruled 400, 000, 000 of Chinese people with an iron hand. This has been a constant surprise to all Europe, and there has been a continual wonder as to how she could do it. There is only one answer to the question. China is a paternal form of government. The Emperor and the Empress are the father and mother of the people, and it follows, as it does in every home, that the Empress Dowager is the mother-in-law of the empire.
