Chapter 92: The Academy

After the daughter finished speaking, she pouted her pink and small mouth, crying, looking at Cao Cuihua aggrievedly, and of course scanning the people behind Cao Cuihua.

"Don't pretend to be so pitiful, you can move to the original house of the Da Niu family, who in this village doesn't know how good the relationship between the new one and your family is!" Cao Cuihua thought that she had seen through the disguise of her daughter, and looked at her daughter and said proudly.

"Cao Cuihua, it's not right for you to say that, Hao Gongzi has a good relationship with our family, but he has always been economical, he eats at our house, and he always pays the food fee on time! Regardless of these, let's go, where does Hao Gongzi live? You can't let Hao Gongzi sleep on the streets! Isn't this bullying of outsiders? Hao Gongzi has not been here for a long time, but he has always been responsible, we shouldn't treat others like this, no matter what others do, Li Yong and I can't do this. In fact, it stands to reason that you don't give compensation, and we don't care, after all, what we do is a good thing that is beneficial to the villagers, but we really have no place to live, and we have no money to spare, so we can only count on the compensation of the imperial court. Cuihua, there is a request I don't know whether to mention or not, your family's old mansion is almost uninhabited now, can you talk to Uncle Cao to give us the house to live in, we can exchange it? You've taken all this merit! The daughter who had not come out of the back room walked out at some point, stood beside the daughter and looked at Cao Cuihua and said loudly, with a gentle and elegant temperament, in stark contrast to Cao Cuihua standing outside the door.

"Okay, you Chen Dongmei, I said why did you hide in the house and never show your head, it turned out that you were thinking about my house! Exchange? Why don't you rob it, can this broken courtyard of your house be compared to mine? Cao Cuihua pointed at Qianjinniang and scolded.

"Mother, didn't Aunt Cuihua say that the feng shui of our yard is good? Why can't it compare to theirs? The daughter turned to look at her mother and asked in a trembling voice, her eyes full of incomprehension.

Most of the countrymen are simple and kind, but they are not stupid. Cao Cuihua also knows the reason for doing this with her heels, and she is not a man who cares about other people. Fortunately, everyone turned their heads and whispered.

"This Cao family girl is really shameless, the children are so old. I still think about the men outside. ”

"Who said no, look at her shrewd appearance, if I were a rich man, I wouldn't choose her!"

"It's a good thing to build a academy, but you can't seek personal revenge with a clear conscience!"

"Aunt Zhang, did you say that the academy was built for free?"

"I don't know. Shouldn't it be free? If you spend money, it's still called benefiting the villagers? ”

"This is really inaccurate, the Cao family is not authentic!"

"Then we have to ask clearly, if we get a academy here, if we pay the money to let the children study, can we still use them?"

When a person has this idea, a large number of pieces have been derived in an instant, don't look at Cao Cuihua making trouble here, most people just have the idea of watching the excitement, but as long as it involves their own interests. You can't just sit on the sidelines.

Someone in the crowd finally took the lead and shouted in the direction of Cao Cuihua: "Girl of the Cao family, this academy you built for our village, we send the baby over, will you charge?" ”

"yes, yes, is there a charge?"

Cao Cuihua didn't expect everyone to ask such a question, so she immediately extinguished the flames, stopped the abuse of the daughter and daughter, and turned to look at everyone. A little timid, I didn't say anything for a long time?

"Cao family girl, you said! Will there be a fee? A voice urged.

Cao Cuihua looked at everyone a little embarrassed, she didn't dare to say it. My brother's original words were that he took the lead, and the villagers raised funds to build a school, and the villagers shared the money for the master in the future. In fact, the main reason why my brother came back to build the academy was to make a political achievement for himself, and to make trouble for the rich family was just incidental. The reason why Li Zheng agreed. It's because her brother gave him a big gift, but she can't say any of this.

"Say, the girl of the Cao family will say it quickly!" There was a urging voice that remembered.

"I, I don't know, you go and ask my brother!" Cao Cuihua saw that she couldn't hide, and finally opened her mouth.

"Mother, since it is said to benefit the villagers, shouldn't it be free?" A small voice came from the door.

"Daughter, be quiet, my mother doesn't know, it stands to reason that it should be free!" Qianjin Niang looked at her daughter and said, saying that she wanted to be quiet, but it was for everyone to hear.

"It's free! The academies funded by our Mu family are all free! And the teachers are also invited to have a good reputation in the county, what my father means is that since you want to do good deeds, you must do your best! Mu Linglan, who had been silent, spoke.

"That Mu Gongzi, can the dolls in our village who want to go to school also go to your academy?" Qianjin looked at Mu Linglan and asked.

As soon as they heard Qianjin ask, everyone immediately stopped talking, and the whole courtyard was silent, just waiting for Mu Linglan's answer.

"Of course you can, as long as it's from our county, you can go to school with dolls! Moreover, we provide a place to stay, just for this food, and ask to bring some rations every month! Mu Linglan said that he was a little embarrassed in the end, after all, he said that it was free, but he had to bring his own rations.

Although Mu Linglan felt a little embarrassed, the villagers were very enthusiastic, as long as they didn't restrain themselves, they were willing to take some rations, even if they took one more person, they would agree. Since there were two talents in the village, they are eager to let the doll go to school, not for anything else, but to get that respect for the child.

So, everyone surrounded them and pushed Cao Cuihua directly to the back, talking to Mu Linglan gossipingly.

"Mu Gongzi, how big a baby does our academy receive!" Seeing that everyone was gossiping, she couldn't find the point, so she could only ask out loud, because it was noisy, and her voice was a little higher than usual.

Hearing Qianjin's question, everyone hurriedly stopped, staring at Mu Linglan with blank eyes, waiting for him to answer.

Mu Linglan cleared his throat, glanced at the villagers around, and replied seriously, "It stands to reason that it should be about five years old to start enlightenment, but because most of the children accepted by the academy are far away from the county seat, the academy stipulates that you must be ten years old and have the ability to take care of yourself!" ”

"Then where is the specific location of our academy, and what is its name?" Qianjin continued to ask.

"Zhixian Academy, in the northeast of the county, not far from the old Niu family's blacksmith shop, everyone just needs to go to the county to inquire!" Mu Linglan said with a warm smile on his face, simply and clearly. (To be continued.) )
