Chapter 201 Girls' School
"What's the point of working for you? Just sit here today and do nothing. Wait patiently for the feast." Mrs. Sun comforted her.
"That's so embarrassing. I'm so shy..." Huanxi felt a little embarrassed.
The village chief took her to a nearby table and sat her down. He poured her a cup of tea and said with a smile:
"I'll ask my daughter-in-law to call your three girls over later. Also..."
Seeing that he hesitated to speak, Huanxi said:
"What else, uncle?"
"Didn't I tell you about the girls' school last time? Your female teacher is here too. Let's discuss how to build this school. There's some money in the public treasury now, and if everyone contributes a little, it should be enough..."
So that's what happened. I was at the village chief's house at the time and forgot what I was doing there. When we talked about this matter, I was happy and thought that the village chief had forgotten about it.
"That's great. Sister Sun, don't go. I'll be back soon. If we build a school, I'm afraid only girls will be able to attend... Have you mentioned this to the villagers, Village Chief?"
The village chief sighed, "It's been brought up. Some people agree, some disagree. They think only the boys in the family should study... This is understandable, after all, girls can't take the imperial examinations..."
This evil underworld.
"That's both right and wrong. Although women can't take the imperial examinations, they can still be knowledgeable and sensible. Moreover, Yu Yan doesn't just teach textbook knowledge, she also teaches music, chess, calligraphy, and painting."
The village chief laughed and said:
"Of course I understand these principles. I'm asking you to call the three girls over to compete with their wild girl, and also to ask Mr. Yu to come over and open their eyes."
"I understand, I understand. I'll go back and tell her right away. I can't sit still anyway."
"Hey, hey, hey, girl, please take care of me. I owe you a big favor!"
After exchanging a few pleasantries with the village chief and finding out that Uncle Qing was at home, he went to his house to get some tranquilizers. On his way home, he passed by Old Master Lu's house and gave the medicine to Liu.
He asked her to make some soup for the two elders, and Liu immediately agreed.
She had missed quite a bit of things during her sleep. This morning, there was a beheading at the vegetable market, a total of twenty-eight people. The blood dyed the entire market red, and many villagers were unhappy.
After all, this group of people has harmed too many people, and it is not too much to send them to the eighteen levels of hell.
The county magistrate divided the sentences of these prisoners into three levels.
The first person who led the group to injure others was beheaded immediately. The second person who followed the crowd was exiled to the frontier to do hard labor for life. The third person who joined temporarily was sent to Hejian Prefecture to repair the river for life.
After talking about punishment, it’s time to talk about reward.
This incident simply built a ladder for Bu Yao's promotion, so he was very generous when rewarding people.
In fact, after interrogating the robbers, they went to their lair and seized nearly 5,000 taels of silver, 2,000 dan of grain, and some other valuables that were worth several thousand taels.
All this silver and grain must be stored, but he can use the trivial things a little bit...
God knows how happy he was when he saw these treasures...
Oh no...how happy it was to bring these guys to justice...
This group of people mainly fled in the mountains and forests, so the difficulty of capturing them can be imagined.
So this time... Dashi Village and Pang Hongying deserve the credit.
Besides, that village woman deserves praise for her courage and wisdom...
He always felt that the peasant woman was not as simple as she appeared to be, but he had indeed checked her out and carefully identified her, and she was indeed just an ordinary peasant woman...
If there is anything strange, it is that after the divorce, he became rich and became the richest man in the village.
Forget it, he is too busy with official duties to spend time on a peasant woman.
So Hongying and Pang Biaotou went to Dashi Village with the reward from the county magistrate.
"Ah... Huanxi, are you serious?" Yu Yan was a little excited.
"It's really true, truer than real gold."
She came back and repeated the village chief's words to Yu Yan. After hearing it, Yu Yan wanted to jump off the stool and rush to the village chief's house.
"Then...what should I prepare? Should I bring books with me?"
She seldom met the girls in the village, so she was a little nervous when she suddenly went there.
"No need to bring them. Just go over there and tell them about the benefits of education for girls. Don't be nervous. They'll probably be more nervous than you are..."
This is very true. After Huanxi left, the village chief told everyone about the incident. Families with daughters ran back home and told their daughters about it.
The happiest person is Qianqian from my sister-in-law's family.
Every time she went to Xiaopan's house to play, her eyes were so envious that they almost popped out of her head.
She could sense the changes in her sisters after they had gone to school, and she wanted to learn from them too...
But her brother is already studying at home... If she goes there, the family expenses will be even higher...
So when she heard the news, she was so happy that she almost jumped up.
There are some girls who have the same idea as Qianqian. Every time they see the three girls in Huanxi's family, it would be a lie to say they are not envious.
At the beginning of the year, she was still a wild child digging wild vegetables, but by the end of the year, she had transformed into a young lady from a wealthy family.
Not to mention envy, I'm a little jealous.
When they heard that there would be a girls' school in the village, they all pestered their parents to go and see it.
"Grandpa clan leader, uncle village leader! We are here!" Huanxi brought her three girls and the elegant and generous Yu Yan to talk to the elders.
The three girls came forward politely and bowed to greet their elders.
"Come...come quickly and take a seat. This must be Master Yu, right? I am the patriarch of the Lu family. Thank you for coming here in the middle of winter."
Yu Yan smiled slightly and said:
"That's not true, Grandpa Clan Leader. I should have gone over to pay my respects earlier. I hope you won't blame me for delaying until today."
A few people exchanged a few pleasantries. No one in the village dared to stare at this side openly, but looked at them secretly.
They all saw that the three girls from the Zhao family rarely showed up in the village. Some people last saw them when Lu Feng severed his relationship with Old Master Lu.
The little girl who only knew how to cry has now become a polite and elegant lady. Now look at my daughter who only knew how to rub her nose and wipe it on her trouser legs...
"Alright, alright! Everyone, stop! You all heard what just happened. Let me introduce you. This is Master Yu from the capital. He's knowledgeable and versatile, proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. If you have maids or girls at home, come over and meet him."
Yu Yan smiled:
"I'm new here, so please take care of me, fellow villagers."
In fact, you don’t need to recognize her face. Yu Yan’s face is so beautiful that it is unforgettable.
Stand there and the fairies will descend to earth...
"Master Yu, no, no, you know my girl, Lu Qianqian. Please discipline her more in the future and punish her if she doesn't listen." He pulled Qianqian towards his sister-in-law.
"Master Yu, I... I am Qianqian..." Qianqian's little face was flushed and she looked very shy.
With Qianqian taking the lead, the girls came over one after another to introduce themselves, and Yu Yan responded with a nod and a smile.
The little girls soon became good friends with the three girls from their own family and had a lot of fun.
"You're going to have a hard time now..." Huanxi said as he came up to her.
"I'm not afraid, I just hope these girls are not afraid." Yu Yan said quietly.
"Wow! What a wonderful day today is! It's so lively!"
A strong male voice and the sound of horse hooves were heard outside.
"Uncle Pang!"
"Uncle Pang."
