With such a large number of people coming, the scholars in the school had already noticed it and turned their heads to see it. It was impossible for Master Qin not to notice it, but he was still shaking his head and reciting the surnames of the hundred families, without the slightest intention of stopping.

Below, a little bean couldn't help but remind loudly, "Sir, someone is coming." ”

"Listen well, don't look around. Mr. Qin paused, then continued to read his book.

"But sir, it may be my Uncle Yi who is here!"

"Zhiyuan, go back and copy five big characters to me. "Regardless of the era, plagiarism is always the most common form of punishment in the classroom. No, the little beans were obedient in an instant, and they shook their heads with the master.

Qiao Lan couldn't help but glance at the child who spoke a few more times, and the child happened to look over secretly, seeing that Qiao Lan was looking at him, he wanted to do something to show it, but in the end he made a grimace. Qiao Chongguang, who was next to Qiao Lan, raised his fist at him, and at the same time, Master Qin also called his name as a warning, so he reluctantly sat down.

"Heh......" Qiao Lan couldn't help but chuckle.

"That's Brother He's son Qiao Jingheng, who is usually quite well-behaved, today is probably because I saw you, I was too excited......" Qiao Chongguang was afraid that Qiao Lan would misunderstand Qiao Jingheng and not cherish this hard-won opportunity, so he was busy explaining on the side, but what he said was a little weak-hearted, and a clear-eyed person knew at a glance that Qiao Jingheng belonged to the category of not being able to sit still, and he was a little far from being obedient.

"Brother He's son, am I not his uncle?" Qiao Lan asked.

"That is, speaking of which, there are really a lot of people in the clan who call you uncle, and now Jingzi is a generation. Jinghong is the biggest, three years older than you. You'll know when you look back. ”

In order not to disturb Master Qin's class, Qiao Lan and his party did not stay long before leaving. On the way, Qiao Chongguang was asking Qiao Lan about Qiao Chongrui's recent situation, when suddenly an old woman turned out from the side and knelt down in front of them all of a sudden, startling Qiao Lan.

The old woman knelt down and kowtowed to Qiao Lan, "Little official Qiao, you just let my grandson go to the school, he is smart." You will learn it as soon as you learn it. We're in lockdown. It's not in vain to go to school. You are accommodating and accommodating, take one more from him, and your great kindness will be remembered by the old woman and son. I will pray for you ......"

"Mrs. Wu. Don't do that. The school is really full. You're just knocking your head down, and the academy can't conjure up the time to accept the potatoes. ”

And some of them sat on the side. Don't occupy an ......" The old woman still wanted to kowtow to Qiao Lan, and a fifteen-year-old boy ran out of the corner. He hurriedly pulled up Mrs. Wu on the ground, "Milk, what are you doing here?" I said that I don't like to go to school, it's freezing, don't freeze, go back with me. Brother Guang, I'm sorry for the trouble. ”

"It's okay, let's take your milk back!"

The young man took the old woman all the way away, and Qiao Lan watched them leave before asking what was going on. Qiao Chongguang talked about his grandparents and grandchildren with regret.

Soon after the potato was born, his father and mother died in the war, and Mrs. Wu pulled him up with a handful of and urine. Potatoes have a talent in literacy, but unfortunately they couldn't enter the school to study, Wu Pozi has always been very regretful, finally Dongshan Village has its own school, but only recruits the children of the Qiao clan, she asked for help and confession in many ways, and the Qiao clan has never let go. Asking to come to Qiao Lan was also her last fight.

"Actually, it......'s not impossible to recruit him," Qiao Chongguang whispered, "but as soon as the precedent is set, it will be difficult for others to refuse." In Dongshan Village alone, there are more babies who want to enter the school, not to mention those from nearby villages. The folks in the countryside are not easy to do after all. ”

Qiao Lan was silent for a moment, "If you are a person with excellent character and learning, you don't have to turn it away." You can be assessed first, and those with excellent grades will be given priority...... In this way, it can not only open the door to the gifted person, but also save face. ”

Qiao Lan's proposal made Qiao Chongguang very difficult, now there are only twenty-five students in the school, and some of the children of the Qiao clan are still turned away, if you still go to accept the children of other families, then ...... That ...... "but...... School...... Dynasty ......"

"Why bother, the children in the clan will also accept some more, and the problem will be solved, and it will be decided so happily. "So far, the silver she has invested in the academy is only one hundred taels before and after, and it is estimated that there is still a leftover, anyway, it is not much, you might as well add some more to expand the academy.

When he returned to Qiao Yuancheng's house, Qiao Lan immediately found him and told him about the school. She wanted to add more silver to expand the school, and Feng Qixiang directly auctioned a silver ticket, indicating that he would also give silver. Doctor Zheng was sent by Qiao Lan to see the elders of the two clans, and he was late, and when he saw Feng Qixiang taking out the silver, he also wanted to express it, but ...... He doesn't even have a silver ingot on him, which is worse than Yuxi.

He turned to Qiao Lan and said shamelessly, "Good grandson, borrow a thousand taels of silver from grandpa......

“……”

Doctor Zheng failed to borrow the silver, and Feng Qixiang's silver also refused, and Qiao Lan added two hundred taels. Qiao Yuancheng was overjoyed, really, there were still many children in the clan who couldn't go to school, and he, the patriarch, didn't feel good in his heart.

"The clan can recruit more, but I hope that the school can give ten children with extra surnames, and after the assessment, they will be selected for admission. ”

"Ah?!" Qiao Yuancheng never expected that Qiao Lan would expand the school in order to give children with foreign surnames a chance.

"Uncle Cheng, be prepared for danger in times of peace, the children in the clan also need to have a sense of crisis, and with ten excellent children with foreign surnames to motivate, they can be more motivated. The children of the clan participated in the scientific expedition, and I sponsored the first two times, and the children with foreign surnames, I sponsored the first time. As long as you ensure that the number of children in the clan is superior and the conditions are superior, it is sufficient. ”

"So...... It's not that you can't ......" Qiao Yuancheng thought about it and felt that what Qiao Lan said was not unreasonable, "Brother Yi'er, it's me who is obsessed, and I always want to let every child in the clan who wants to read and write go to school, or do you think thoughtfully." ”

The Yi School Hall of the Qiao clan is about to expand, and children with foreign surnames can also enter the school through the assessment, but only the top ten are enrolled, and they are assessed every year, and the rankings can only be said goodbye to the Yi School Hall with tears when they are brushed down, and there are also funds for children with foreign surnames to participate in the scientific examination for the first time...... The news spread quickly, and those who had no way to enter the school celebrated, hoping that the expansion of the Yixue Hall would be prepared tomorrow.

But...... That assessment is also a problem......

After Potato served Mrs. Wu and lay down, he was about to cook, when his playmate Goudan hurried in to tell him the news.

"I don't necessarily have to get in, I have to pass the assessment. Tudou replied calmly, but his trembling hands betrayed the excitement in his heart, just as he had done last year when he learned that Dongshan Village was going to run a school.

"Hey, around here, who can compare with you, you've learned some old words, no problem. "In Goudan's mind, Tudou is the second smartest person in Dongshan Village, and the first smartest person is naturally Qiao Chongrui.

Goudan's voice was loud and loud, and when Mrs. Wu in the house heard it, she rushed out overjoyed, "Really, Goudan, don't make fun of grandma." Grandma can be trusted. ”

"That's what Brother Guang of the Qiao family said, Brother Yi'er, that is, the founder of Yi Xuetang has discussed it with Qiao Li, I estimate that it will start recruiting new students after the fifteenth next year. ”

"Oh, that's great, that's great, that's really a good man, and when the old woman asks for this, he can rest assured. We are going to school to be literate, and I have to go and tell my father and mother about the good news. Mrs. Wu turned around and took a stick of incense and a few pieces of paper money, and walked out with her hands and feet.

"Milk, slow down. Potato, also known as Wu Doutu, the corners of his mouth finally couldn't help but rise slightly.

On this day, the Qiao clan ate a hundred family banquets, and the main dish was the three animals sacrificed today. There are many monks and little porridge, and each person only gets one or two pieces of meat, but for those who have not smelled meat for a long time, this is already a feast. Qiao Lan asked Yu Dana to pick two big fat pigs and buy a few large jars of wine. In the evening, the aroma of meat and wine permeated Dongshan Village, making people's mouths water.

Qiao Lan didn't eat much at the banquet, because there were always people who came to toast tea and toast, and she followed Qiao Yuancheng to get to know a circle of people. Xiaodouding Qiao Jingheng had no one to recommend, so he went to Qiao Lan to report to his house, his father wanted to take him away, but he refused, but he was dragged away by his ears, causing everyone to laugh. Compared with the children who pick and shrink, Qiao Lan prefers Qiao Jingheng's liveliness.

Doctor Zheng and Feng Qixiang, who were arranged in the guest seats, stared at each other wide-eyed, and they didn't move their chopsticks much, this table really didn't suit their appetite, and the mood was not cheerful.

Qiao Yuancheng had already set up a room for Qiao Lan at home, wanting the baby to stay at home for a few nights, however, seeing Qiao Lan's extravagance, he was embarrassed to speak, or Qiao Lan couldn't resist the relatives who kept coming over to toast, and pretended to be drunk, so he took advantage of the situation and let her go to the house to rest.

Qiao Lan also knew that it would be reasonable not to stay in the clan for one night, so this night, she rested in the room that Qiao Yuancheng prepared for him.

Feng Qixiang didn't dislike the simplicity here, he wanted her to squeeze it, but was boycotted by Ye Feitian and several nursing homes, this time, even Feng Yi didn't help him, and finally had to go back to the Changzhou City Guest House.

Doctor Zheng treated the two clan elders, and also prescribed two prescriptions, and Qiao Yuancheng arranged a place for him to live. Seeing Feng Qixiang being sent away, he was so proud that he felt that he had defeated Feng Qixiang and became Qiao Lan's family.

Qiao Lan only stayed in Dongshan Village for one night, and the next day, she refused all kinds of reservations from her clan and left Dongshan Village with half a cart of local products. (To be continued.) )
