186, calm

It's not just that the girl is confused, it's the girl's mother, although she brought her daughter here, she still hasn't made up her mind.

In normal times, the girl's mother didn't dare to say anything, but when she saw Xin Yi and Yan Yuese, she was less afraid in her heart.

So, she expressed the confusion in her heart,

"Mrs. Prefectural Order, what's the use of a girl studying? is like my eldest girl, no matter how much she reads books, she will only get married and have children, even if she is an official, won't she still have to marry someone in the future? ”

Why do you have to take a detour?

The big girl secretly glanced at Xin Yi, and couldn't help but argue in a low voice,

"Who said that? In the past, there were no female catchers in our county government, and I heard that there were female officials in the capital. ”

Xin Yi smiled, touched the girl's head, and asked with a smile,

"There are female officials in the capital, but studying is not just for being a big official."

Xin Yi paused, and said, "It's to have one more way to choose in the future, or at least, one more ability to make a living." ”

The Northland side is close to the border, and the literary style is not prosperous, and there are not many people who are willing to spend money to send their children to the school to study, let alone their daughters.

Even if there are female officials in the capital, but those female officials, even if they are not from the high gate, they are also the side branches of the high gate, or the daughters of small officials.

These people are in order to climb up better, at the very least, if there is a girl in the family who is a female official, then they can be said to be a good family.

In the final analysis, these people are female officials not for anything else, but for the family, and for the future to get a good husband and a good mother-in-law.

It's just that Xin Yi doesn't think so.

The big girl listened to Xin Yi's words, and immediately nodded again and again,

"Madame is right, I'm not convinced, why can the younger brother of the uncle's family go to the academy to study, and I can only be locked up at home to learn what female red, female rings and the like."

"I'm not stupider than my cousin, and I know what he said."

"Mother, as long as you allow your daughter to study, I will definitely study better than my cousin, and I will never let others bully you again, you can succeed whoever you want, if you don't want to succeed, your daughter will be able to support you in the future."

The eldest girl pouted her head, her eyes were slightly red, and after a while, she turned her head to Xin Yi and said,

"Mrs. County Order, the little woman is not afraid to make you laugh, the eldest girl's father has been dead for two or three years, and after her father died, our mother and mother were kicked out, although she is a girl, but she was also conceived and born in October."

"This kid has so much to worry about, and it's crazy to want us to live a good life."

Xin Yi smiled, she knew that the big girl was not crazy, but opened another door to the cognitive world.

Many people study, at first to survive, want the imperial examination, but also to survive, but when they read more books and broaden their horizons, their hearts will fly higher and farther.

"If my sister-in-law is relieved, leave the child behind and let the child follow me." Xin Yi said with a smile.

When the eldest girl heard this, she hurriedly said, "Don't worry, don't worry, where is there anything to worry about, this child is a little noisy, I am afraid that Mrs. County Ling will dislike her and refuse to ask her." ”

At this point, after Xin Yi posted a notice to recruit female students, he received a female student.

This is just an exception, and for a long time, I only received another female student.

It was this newly accepted female student who was also sent by a scrivener in the county government. It's not that I sincerely want my child to study, most of it is to flatter Mrs. County Order.

If everyone thought that this Xiao County Commander had fallen out of favor and was belittled to come here, it would inevitably bring a little contempt or two.

But after Li Xiancheng and others were exiled, and Yan County's county guard Lord Huang, Chen Tongzhi and other officials were sent to prison and exiled, everyone not only accepted the contempt, but even began to respect this young county commander in their hearts.

It's just that although there are few female students, there are a lot of people who want to send their sons to Xinyi.

After all, the notice of the county government reads: do not restrict, supply pen, ink, paper and inkstone, a small test at the end of the month, free meals for those who excel in the small exam, and better rewards for those who excel in the three-month exam.

No matter what the reward of the three-month exam is, the rest is already crowded.

There is no school in the Northland that has such a discount posted on the county government notice.

The interests are moving, and many families think that their daughter's study is useless, so it is better to send their son.

For this reason, Xin Yina couldn't cry or laugh, she is not in Chaotianguan now, although she has the position of Chaotianguan Master, but she doesn't need to do anything at all.

And Xiao Yuanyou here, she didn't need her help, she didn't stay in Dieshan Academy for a long time, but she was still very clear about the process of the academy.

And because of her own special situation, considering that this is not the capital and other places, it is a little difficult to recruit students, so she thought that the conditions would be more favorable, and she could always attract some people to send girls over.

She couldn't have imagined that even so, the people would still choose to send their son over, thinking about cultivating their son to glorify their ancestors, rather than cultivating their daughter, who is someone else's family in the future.

The men who sent them were inevitably rejected by Xin Yi.

Xiao Yuanyou fully supported what Xin Yi did, and because of the case of Lord Wei and Lord Huang, he had a great majesty in the eyes of the people of Hexian County, and even worshipped, even the scholars, now they also respect Xiao Yuanyou very much.

There are even many students who want Xiao Yuanyou to open a class and accept apprentices, after all, he is also a proper champion, and his knowledge is unusual.

Xin Yi refused to accept these boys, and no one dared to be wild and mutter, so he could only lead the children back.

Seeing that people couldn't be recruited, Zhenxiang persuaded Xin Yi in private,

"Madam, since you can't recruit female students, why don't you recruit some male students? Isn't there such a saying, it's called ...... Is there no class to teach? ”

"Since those boys are willing to come to school, why don't we recruit them?"

Xin Yi naturally disagreed, she said,

"It's not that I don't like those boys, it's because I'm recruiting female students, and once I say that I'm also recruiting boys, then I'll never want to recruit female students in the future."

Since ancient times, the children of the high families have always had more convenience than the scholars of the poor families.

The poor man wants to get ahead, and the family is smashing pots and selling iron, but what about girls?

Even if you don't want money, you won't be happy.

Girls can do a lot of things, do housework, make women's red needlework and sell money, help people with laundry, and even sell to rich families as maids, there are also child daughters-in-law, etc., once girls also study, then these poor families will have one less laborer.

Reality is laid out here in such a bare way.

If she is tolerant, it is harsh.

Before Xin Yi asked Xiao Yuanyou to issue a notice, she knew that it couldn't be smooth, she couldn't recruit in He County, so she expanded the scope, or recruited relatives such as maids and mothers-in-law in the house, no matter how distant or close the relatives were, as long as she was willing to send the girl to learn a few words, she would accept it.

This time, there are naturally more applicants.

It's not that these maids who bought locally have a high level of consciousness, but because they have signed a contract with the county government and can only rely on the county government to eat.

Nowadays, many small officials in the county government are vacant, and at this time, if you can show your face in front of Mrs. County Commander or Mrs. County Order, it will be one more opportunity, at this time, those who do not flatter are big fools.

Half a month later, Xin Yi had ten female students.

In fact, recruiting students to impart knowledge is extremely slow to take effect, and it must be a matter of several years, and in between, it will definitely receive a lot of criticism.

Such criticisms must be repeated one after another.

When the time comes, any 'non-observance of women's ways', 'deviance, demagoguery, etc.' will come out.

I don't know when, maybe a year or two, maybe five or six years later.

After all, the first batch of female students recruited by that time have grown up, and when they reach the age of marriage, not to mention whether they can pass the female official examination recruited by various ministries, it is time for people to gradually find that girls who can read and write will generally marry better than illiterate girls!

People's concepts are slowly reversed, no matter how many women are not talented and virtuous, but the daughter-in-law who can marry is literate and reasonable, and a good daughter-in-law is rich for three generations, which is an ironclad law.

In the past, ordinary people didn't have this demand, and they couldn't afford it, but now, there can be this demand, so why don't you think about it?

Those girls from poor families have grown up, and the good women of the county can marry without a lot of effort, so why not ask for marriage?

In this way, when the time comes, the atmosphere of sending girls to school will start from the bottom, although the family is less helpers, but the value of marrying daughters in the future is different, and the bride price can be much more.

This is more cost-effective than selling her daughter to be a maid.

There is another one, no matter how much work you do at home, you can't buy real money to make a living.

The poorer the family, the more willing they are to try, and the more enthusiastic they are.

Xin Yi had already thought that after a few years, the atmosphere of girls reading would gradually enter the middle school.

After all, ordinary girls, what kind of merchants, oil sellers, blacksmiths, and girls who farm mud legs in the countryside are all literate, and there is no reason why the pampered girls at home are still blind, is it reasonable?

Maybe the process of change is slow, difficult, and the driving force is also very philistine, but after all, this atmosphere has been slowly changing, hasn't it?

Just as Xin Yi had this idea at the beginning, and told Xiao Yuanyou about this idea,

"Fifth brother, I know that this matter will be going to take a long time, maybe ten years, a hundred years, or even longer, before there will be as grand a situation as I imagined."

"It's just that there is no perfect law in the world, and I hope that in the future, in a long, long time, these seeds I planted will be able to break through the old shackles and bloom bright and bright flowers."

"I don't care what people say, I don't care if it's whimsical or not, but I know that if I don't do something, I'm living this life in vain."

Even, she will live up to the master's teaching to her for so many years.

Master's way of teaching her is very special, but who can say that this way is wrong?

If it weren't for Master's way of teaching, she wouldn't be where she is today.

There will be no such ideas that seem great to her.

She didn't have time to see the future, so what?

Xiao Yuanyou looked at Xin Yi whose eyes burst out with crystal light, and the gentleness at the corners of his eyebrows and eyes couldn't cover it.

He is willing to accompany his girl to realize all the ideas in her heart, good and bad, pain and joy.

In her future life, everything will have his participation.

Because of the expansion of the scope of enrollment, the first batch of female students was about 20.

Although the number of people is not very large, Xin Yi thinks it is still good.

There are still many empty courtyards behind the county government, and she has opened up two courtyards, one for studying, and one for the girls' bedroom.

Some girls in the county can't go back to their homes every day, so they live behind the county office.

Among the twenty new girls this time, there is a girl named Chunzhi from Linxian County, and these girls are the most beautiful in appearance, and she is also sweet and diligent.

At a young age, the family is about poor and there are many children, so people are very calm, whether they are studying or sprinkling, and taking care of themselves, they are doing very well.

She learns faster than others, and understands very well, and others are still figuring out how to write well, and she can already write decently.

For this reason, no one will dislike such a child, Xin Yi also thinks that this girl is good, if it continues like this, the future will naturally have more roads than the girl next to her.

The emperor knew that she was running a women's school in the north, and he appreciated it greatly, not only rewarded Xinyi with things, but also promoted her to an official, and at the same time allocated money to her for the purpose of running a school.

Xin Yi ran a women's school, not only teaching reading and literacy, but also some did not have a lot of reading talent, and she also opened a needlework course for female workers.

Learned, always give the girls one more way to go.

In reality, she always has to teach people to fish.

……

Let's say that Yan Wuming's side, Li Hong was almost blackmailed for selling food, and the business almost couldn't go on.

In the end, Li Hong was not a soft persimmon, because of Yan Wuming's help, she proved her innocence, and followed Yan Wuming to find out the person who sent someone to frame her behind her back.

Shopkeeper Sun was frightened by Yan Wuming's 'new punishment method', and admitted that he did it at the time.

Just because Li Hong's sour plum soup and other soups are doing very well, and because Li Hong's ideas are very novel, he wants to stir up Li Hong's stall, and after a period of time, he will launch sour plum soup in the restaurant and those skewered with bamboo skewers, and then he can make a lot of money.

Unexpectedly, stealing chickens and rice would not make it a loss, and the mother-in-law's family was useless, and the two little girls couldn't handle it, so they put him in themselves.

Shopkeeper Sun calculated in his heart that this scholar from a foreign country was obviously not good at stubble, and even the girl who sold food was not easy to get along with.

He could only keep his heart crossed and his eyes closed, "This son is right, I am jealous that I will set up such a poisonous plan, I confess my guilt, and please don't anger innocent people." ”

Li Hong didn't expect Shopkeeper Sun to be charged so quickly and anger innocent people, which one here is innocent?

She's the most innocent.

"Really? Do you know it's a poisonous scheme? It's really ruthless, crazy, wolf-hearted, dog-hearted, and femme fatale-hearted. ”

Because he was afraid that she would steal the business, he tried his best to kill her.

Shopkeeper Sun didn't dare to raise his head, he could only keep slandering in his heart, this dead girl is really difficult to deal with, and every sentence is more than a sentence.

I only heard Li Hong smile and said,

"Shopkeeper Sun, although you said that you are afraid that I will rob the business, so you want to do it, but if this matter is big, you will still be punished, just like now."

Li Hong looked at the somewhat embarrassed shopkeeper Sun, and his tone was kind and sincere,

"Shopkeeper Sun, you know that this thing is full of loopholes, but you still did it, aren't you afraid of being unlucky when you find out the truth?"

"You know, not only do you know this, but you also know the inside story, and you are not the mastermind."

"I have to cooperate with others, aim a knife at myself, Shopkeeper Sun, I really wronged you."

Shopkeeper Sun's face became paler and paler, he lowered his head, and said honestly and fearfully,

"I didn't ...... There is no ......"

Yan Wuming said coldly,

"And what do you have? It's not a day or two since you've been looking for all kinds of recipes, and it's not once or twice that you've done something like this. ”

I saw Yan Wuming take out a letter from his sleeve with his nameless eyes, take out the letter inside and hand it to Shopkeeper Sun.

When the shopkeeper Sun saw it, his face turned pale, and when the handwriting on the letter and the end of the letter, he didn't know what to think, and his expression became more and more ugly.

At the end of this epistle is actually stamped with his private seal, who still keeps such a terrible thing so well?

It is not difficult to say that it is difficult to forge a private seal, and it is not easy to say that it is not easy, there are many skilled craftsmen in this division, if they don't want to raid the family and exterminate the clan, they can even imitate the jade seal, not to mention a small private seal?

It's just that the difficulty is that this kind of private thing, with a unique private print shape, is usually carried close to the body and is easy not to show.

"This is your private seal, right?" Yan Wuming looked at the shopkeeper Sun with an ugly expression.

Shopkeeper Sun's face was pale, and he stared at Yan Wuming deadly, as if he wanted to find some flaws in his face, but he was shocked by Yan Wuming's seemingly careless, but actually very terrifying gaze, and couldn't help but take a step back.

Seeing his reaction, Yan Wuming understood it, and slowly shook the robe on his body, and then said,

"Okay, go to the government and turn yourself in."

Shopkeeper Sun didn't finally know that he had caused a big fire until he was sent to the yamen by Mung Bean, but no matter how he shouted, Mung Bean ignored it.

Mung Bean politely addressed Sun's shopkeeper, and politely invited him to surrender to the officials of the yamen.

This result made Shopkeeper Sun a little scared.

He knew that things seemed to be getting bigger.

It's just that this method has been tried and tested many times before, why is it not right today?

He couldn't figure it out, but he was just dealing with a little girl who had heard that she was a beautiful girl from an official family, how could it become like this?

Not only did he lose himself, but this fire could burn the people who came to the restaurant to eat with him.

and the owner of his own restaurant, which was also burned by this fire.

What would be the owner's reaction if he knew that what he had done was too hateful?

And the Huaiwang Mansion......

Shopkeeper Sun shuddered.

He regretted it, really regretted it.

He knew that he would cause such a big trouble, so he might as well find another house.

It's a pity that there is no regret medicine to take in this world.

Because of the mother-in-law's trouble, as well as the matter of the shopkeeper Sun, time passed in a flash, and it was time for Li Hong to close the stall and go home.

She cleaned everything and cleaned it up, and all that was left was some jasmine tea, if it was before, it would have been sold out a long time ago, but today the trouble is one after another, and the jasmine tea has not been sold.

Fortunately, Li Hong had already extinguished the stove for boiling water, and she was just about to remove the iron kettle from the stove when she heard the table knocking.

The noble son, who had just tried the case with her, leaned lazily on the table and said lightly,

"Let's have a bowl of flower tea."

Li Hong, "......"

Is this still a diner?

Why is this noble son haunted in front of her?

She admitted that she was very grateful to the noble son for relieving herself, but Li Hong felt that maybe the noble son helped for another purpose.

After all, others are obviously here, why would there be the letters that collected the bad things of Shopkeeper Sun?

and the things he interrogated, none of which could be found out in a moment, so she felt that her affairs were just incidental to your son.

Anyway, this is a guest in the end, and if the flower tea can be sold for a copy, it is also money, and maybe this noble son can give her some reward.

She boiled the water, shook the bowl, put the tea leaves, and slowly poured the water, the flowers in the tea floated, and slowly, the tea soup gradually turned a faint yellow-green, and the fragrance also wafted in.

The tea bowl was placed in front of Yan Wuming, he was still the same boneless appearance, he blew the tea bowl with it, took a sip again, put it down, and asked,

"The girl is in the market, happy?"

Li Hong looked at Yan Wuming in some surprise, not understanding why this noble son would ask such a question.

Is this something strangers can talk about?

She remembered what she said when she went to say goodbye to Mrs. Xiao that day, and suddenly said with a smile,

"For example, if the Haiyan River is clear today, the war on the border is stable, and although this Sanyang County is the place of exile of my family, it is still the luck of Chengtian in the end, and the family is still surrounded by one place."

"Where can you be restless on a day like this? It's very comfortable. ”

Li Hong felt that this answer was still good, not to offend people, and also touted it, touting loudly and not embarrassing.

Yan Wuming glanced at Li Hong with a smile, didn't say anything, just drank tea slowly.

Li Hong took the rag, wiped it here, wiped it there, packed up his things, prepared to put it on the dock and put it on the dock, and took it home when he should take it home.

It didn't matter much, Yan Wuming also finished drinking tea and stood up.

Li Hong was also not polite, "A bowl of five cents, son." ”

Yan Wuming didn't say anything, just took out his purse, took out five cents and put it on the table, beckoned to the mung bean, and left.

Li Hong couldn't tell what it was like in her heart.

However, before leaving, the corner of the noble son's mouth had a slight smile, which made people feel a little like the breeze coming from the lotus pond.

Li Hongleng was stunned, when she was in Hexian, she saw this noble son and thought he was very good-looking, but she always felt a little unkind.

Where is the sultry demeanor of that smile just now?

For this reason, even if there is only five cents, Li Hong doesn't seem to feel less.

Yan Wuming came to Sanyang County not without a purpose, but with some preparation, the letter in his arms just now was actually obtained a long time ago, but it was a different case.

When he was in the capital, His Majesty received a secret letter from Sanyang County to impeach Huai Wangfu for doing illegal things.

These illegal things were not really done by the people in Huaiwangfu, but by some ordinary people who had something to do with Huaiwangfu.

After the emperor received the secret fold, he handed the fold to him to see, and he was easy to investigate such a case, and Silutang didn't know how many such secret fold cases he had cracked.

Just when he was drinking tea, he asked Mung Bean to book a room at a nearby inn, but he didn't expect that as soon as he returned to the inn, the sky was cloudy and raining.

When he entered the inn, changed his clothes, and went downstairs, he saw the two students who had just followed him coming over.

The two of them looked anxious, which reminded Yan Wuming of the fact that he had dumped the two of them before.

How could he not know that these two students were sent to follow him, and when they were walking by the river, they dumped the two of them.

I didn't expect to know where he lived so quickly.

It seems that the water in Sanyang County is also very turbid, not much more refreshing than the situation in Yan County.

"Brother Tai, didn't you just say that we should continue to discuss poetry? How do you disappear while walking? ”

"It's rare for us to be so deed-deed, let's go for a walk, let's not talk about it and not end the game."

"I heard that Lord Huai is recruiting students, let's go together then?"

"The academy set up by King Huai's Mansion will also have a free school, so it's better for us to have one room."

"Wouldn't it be nice for us to fall asleep then?"

Yan Wuming didn't want to continue to entangle with these people at this time, and shook his head and said,

"I don't need to go to the academy of Huai Wangfu, I have my own students."

Student A said disapprerovingly, "Where can an ordinary gentleman compare with Lord Huai?" ”

Yan Wuming shook the folding fan lazily, "Knowledge can be compared, and morality can be compared." ”

Regardless of whether the things on the secret fold are true or not, but if the secret fold can be made, it is not groundless, and now it proves that the restaurant that has something to do with Huaiwangfu has done illegal things?

And Sanyang County is King Huai's territory, would he not know what these people are doing?

Whether you know it or not, King Huai's character is problematic.

How can he compare with his husband and Xiao Yuanyou?

At this time, not only the two students who came to keep an eye on him were a little angry, but also the people who were listening on the side, which was also angry.

"Hmph, hubris!"

"Where is arrogance, it is just a frog at the bottom of a well, and you can only see the sky above your head."

On the first floor of the inn, which was originally quiet, the atmosphere became a little tense.

The mung bean who was originally waiting behind Yan Wuming was a little bored, he really didn't understand how to talk about poetry, but this time he came out, the master played a student, and those who were so good that he heard all kinds of drags, and his head was about to explode.

It's even more abrasive than a monk's chanting.

At this time, the tense atmosphere around Mung Bean made Mung Bean's whole person straight, and the cold hairs on his body stood up, as if he could fight at any time.

He quietly took a few steps closer to Yan Wuming, and stood behind him to prevent the people on the side from hurting his master when he moved.

At the same time, it also occupies a good advantageous terrain, but he glanced at these scholars with thin arms and legs, and felt that it was not enough.

I think he is also invincible in the capital (except for those perverted black-clothed guards in the Goro Mansion.) )

In order to show his domineering spirit, Mung Bean used this to scare off those scholars, and stared at these students vigilantly with his arms on the side.

The student A sent to keep an eye on him asked, "I don't know where my brother is told?" ”

Speaking of which, he also has good intentions, since he was sent to keep an eye on him, he can't easily stiffen the relationship.

Otherwise, it's a mission failure.

He has also heard Yan Wuming's conversation, his knowledge is extraordinary, and he must be a famous teacher's guidance, so let him say the teacher's name to shock everyone, and at the same time give him a little useful information for himself, so that he can communicate with people.

It's just that Yan Wuming frowned and stopped talking.

Of course, he knew that he would definitely be able to shut these people by saying his husband's name, but he couldn't expose too much information about himself now, and if he really exposed, it would be difficult to investigate the case.

His silence was seen as a weakness of heart by those on the side.

Someone scoffed,

"It's a little ashamed, knowing that it's embarrassing not to say the name of my husband."

Yan Wuming raised his eyes lightly and looked at the person who spoke,

"Mr. will not be ashamed, only students who are not good at school and are ignorant and rude will be embarrassed to Mr."

Mung Bean stood behind, eager to help Yan Wuming say Mr. name.

However, he can't interrupt his master's calculations at will, and can only cheer his master silently.

The student who ridiculed Yan Wuming suddenly became angry, and pointed at Yan Wuming,

"You...... You...... You ......"

You didn't say anything for a long time.

It was Mung Bean, a little excited, staring at the man's fingers tightly, as long as he dared to touch his master a little bit, then he would definitely beat him mercilessly!

The master who dared to bully him was really impatient.

Moreover, it was someone else who made the first move to the master, and then he did it, so that it would not appear that he was rude.

It's a pity that the man 'you' for a long time, the two farts can't be released, disappointed, mung bean is very disappointed.

The other scholars in the inn also wanted to try their luck in the academy of Huaiwangfu to see if they could be included.

Seeing that Yan Wuming was a hard bone, he immediately dispersed, with this kung fu, it was better to go to the camp and see if he could enter the Huaiwangfu Academy.

As for the two students who were watching, they naturally stayed.

Student A sighed, and his face was serious, "Even if Brother Tai studied under a famous teacher in the past, he shouldn't belittle Prince Huai like this, this is a public outrage." ”

"Sanyang County is not as good as other places, you better be careful."

Student B, who hasn't spoken, is better to echo,

"Yes, brother, you said that these people didn't even enter the academy of Huai Wangfu, and you showed off your husband in front of them that you were very powerful, isn't that just making people jealous?"

Yan Wuming looked at the two students calmly,

"It's okay, what I'm saying is the truth, there's nothing to hide, if they want to be jealous, then it's better to be jealous."

"Today, these people keep saying how to Huai Wangye, and how many people really want to learn? I really know the character of King Huai, but I am just a cloud of people, and I go in his identity. ”

"It's just that King Huai is not as good as my husband, and these scholars who haven't even talked about King Huai attack me, which is a bit scary."
