Chapter 332: School Starts
The academy opened in August of the golden autumn, and the number of students skyrocketed to 300, and when the women visited each other, the reputation of the academy had completely spread in the Huaixi Gang.
The advertising slogan is like this, "What is your skin monkey still doing at home, send it to the academy as soon as possible, and it will become a good offspring who is knowledgeable and reasonable in just three months." ”
Most of the Huaixi Gang are from poor backgrounds, men are rough and women are ignorant, they don't know how to educate their children, and it is useless to invite Mr. Private School, and the academy is like a tailor-made for them.
As soon as the school started, he came to the academy with the big one and the small one to sign up, and the small academy was surrounded by an airtight one, and it seemed that Zhu Sheng's decision to tear down the gate was still correct.
The worst of these people is also a thousand households in the army, so it is naturally not good to come to the door empty-handed, and it is rare that they also know how to bring a shackle to Mr., but they all send a dry lean pork, but they send a whole live pig, saying that it is too stingy to take a piece of pork.
No wonder Ma Du found that when he came back from the grassland this time, he found that there were many more pigs in the academy, and this is how he came. It's just that this is a academy, not a pig farm, so what's the matter with a few hundred pigs.
He simply built a pig farm on the barren beach outside the academy to improve the food of the academy, and the pig manure could also be used as fertilizer. Of course, the pig-raising staff came in turn from the students, who sent the pigs from their families.
Suddenly there were a lot of students, and the classrooms and dormitories were still enough, but Mr. was really not enough this time. In these years, why are scholars respected, of course, because there are few readers, and there are even fewer excellent readers.
It is not easy for Ma Du to find a few students who are both academic and academic, but it is a piece of cake for Zhu Sheng, this old man was either teaching or lecturing before working for Lao Zhu, and there are not many disciples, so it is not difficult for him to find a few people.
Zhu Sheng handed the three letters to Ma Du's hand, "Send these letters out, and there will be a gentleman in the academy!" His appearance is very awesome, "These people are all the former disciples of the old man, and their character and knowledge are all the best choices, I originally wanted to recommend them to the emperor, but now they are all cheap for you, and you can't be treated badly when you come to the academy." ”
Ma Du arched his hand, "Please rest assured about this, I will not slack off when I come to the academy." But you've been teaching for most of your life, and you can't be the only one with these three talents, right? If there's any, get them all. ”
"Phew!" Zhu Sheng spat at Ma Du, "I thought that the old man ate dry rice, and the students taught by the old man are naturally all talents." However, the old man has already served as the head of the mountain, and then made the gentlemen of the academy his own disciples, and others still think that this academy was opened by the old man, if you still want the gentleman, you will find it yourself! By the way, the old man has already told the three disciples in a letter that you will build a house on the edge of the academy for each of them, just like the old man's, don't forget. ”
Good guy, Zhu Sheng is cutting first and then playing, this knife is so painful to cut Ma Du. As soon as Zhu Sheng left, Song Ke came over with a knife to cut the meat, and slapped the table with a clang, "Why do these outsiders have houses, but I don't, is my brother-in-law not as good as outsiders." ”
"Big brother, what are you talking about, didn't the younger brother give you a house in the city?"
"What about the title deed?"
"If you ask me, who will I ask, when the emperor gives me a house, there is no deed of ownership!"
Song Ke patted the table and said, "So the house in the city is still yours, besides, how can you give away the things rewarded by the heavenly family, you have to get a set for the eldest brother and also on the edge of the academy, and your sister-in-law and I don't have to live in the same city and a country inconvenient, if you don't build it for me, I will go back to my hometown in Suzhou!" ”
Ma Du struggled to appease Song Ke, and the house was indispensable to give, not only the flesh hurt, but also the liver hurt. He sent his eldest brother back to his desk, and someone handed him a cup of tea, "Sir, drink a cup of hot tea, this is the best hair tip that Mr. Zhu gave me." ”
When I looked up, it turned out to be Yuan Jiuli, who was in the same office as him, who told them that they were both the lowest level lecturers in the academy, and the two of them could only squeeze into one room to work, and the spacious office was occupied by three old guys.
"Thank you, Mr. Yuan!" Ma Du took a sip of the teacup, "This tea is really good!" ”
"That's right, I don't usually want to drink it." Yuan Jiuli's mouth shook twice, and then he suddenly said: "There is a sentence below, I don't know if to ask?" ”
"We are colleagues in the academy, so we don't have to be so formal."
"Whether the lord is going to build a house for the gentleman of the academy, I don't know if there is one."
Ma Du smiled, but his mouth said sonorously: "No, absolutely nothing!" ”
Yuan Jiuli took a step back and said unwillingly: "Why not, I am also the gentleman of the academy, and the lord is so unfair, I will ...... I'm not teaching here! ”
Yuan Jiuli gritted his teeth and took out the last killer move, just now after he saw Song Ke use this trick with his own eyes, Ma Du immediately begged for mercy. Who knew that Ma Du said with a smile: "Great, if you leave, this office will be much more spacious, when will Mr. Yuan leave, I will let the account room settle the bill for you." Oops, it's getting late, I have to go to class! ”
Ma Du walked away with the lesson plan, leaving Yuan Jiuli standing in place in a daze, and after a while, he suddenly cried and beat his chest vigorously with a sad face, "Sooner or later, I will leave this rotten place where there is no sense of fairness and justice!" ”
Originally, I talked to Chang Yuchun that I would take Chang Mao to study at the academy when school started, but who knew that it would take two or three days to come after the first day of school, and I brought a lot of things with a large bag.
Chang Yuchun bowed to Zhu Sheng, who was two heads shorter than him, "Thanks to Mr.'s careful teaching, the second and third children of my family have been reborn, and they finally have a little appearance at home." ”
Ma Du thought it was funny, he believed that Chang Sheng and Chang Sen were impeccable good boys at home, but when they arrived at the academy, they didn't look like any people. Chang Sheng is okay, as for Chang Sen, he has been beaten by Zhao Desheng four times in less than three days after the start of school.
"A little politeness is not a tribute, and a few gentlemen are invited to smile!" The steward of the Chang family handed over the gift list, and even Yuan Jiuli had no Ma Du.
Ma Du asked dissatisfiedly: "Why doesn't Chang have me, I have a lot of thought to be promoted to your family, and the arithmetic of Chang Sheng's final exam in the first half of the year can be ranked third in the class, but my credit is indispensable." ”
Chang Yuchun sneered: "I've never seen you take credit for yourself like this, didn't you fight with me in the north in the first half of the year?" What does it have to do with you if my second child does well in arithmetic? ”
I wipe, it's really like this, Ma Du held back for a long time before he said: "That's mine, give him a good foundation!" Besides, it's not that you don't have no money, so you send your three sons to eat and drink for nothing, and let me raise you for nothing, what's the matter, you have to get some...... Establishment fee. Guo Ying, a scholar, sent four sons to the academy, but two thousand taels were credited to the academy. ”
Zhu Sheng, an old money fan, was very unaccustomed to Ma Du's face of recognizing money and not recognizing people, and slapped the gift slip in his hand in Ma Du's arms, "It's a teacher in vain, hum!" ”
Luo Furen also slapped the gift slip in Ma Du's arms, "It's a teacher in vain, hum!" ”
The eldest brother pointed to Ma Du's nose, "It's a teacher in vain!" Then he tucked the gift slip into his sleeve.
"...... in vain" Yuan Jiuli looked at Ma Du's sharp eyes, and quickly swallowed the words back, and suddenly loosened his hand, and the gift list was already held in Ma Du's hand.
