Chapter 710: Discuss the Solution
"I don't know if you have any questions." I heard Zhang Fan say that he had doubts. Wei Yanyao naturally asked. After all, it's a big deal that is being discussed. At least for Wei Yanyao and the dozens of orphans. This is definitely a top priority. Wei Yanyao can't be cautious. Now that Zhang Fan said that he has doubts. So for Wei Yanyao. Naturally, you have to ask for clarification.
"Actually, this question. Maybe I'm thinking too much. Zhang Fan said. I understand all of Sister Wei's thoughts. I know it's for the good of those orphans. I also admire Sister Wei's actions. It's just that Sister Wei needs to know a little. Those orphans weren't just boys. There are quite a few girls. Let them all go to school. That's not a problem. I won't say anything either. Even if it's a woman, after all. There are also benefits to reading some books. But now. That's where the question comes in. Boys reading is good. Grow up in the future. If it's a good read. You can also go to the test to gain fame. even sought an official position in the DPRK. That's a beautiful thing. But what about the daughter. Even if my daughter reads well. In the future, you will not be able to gain fame. Eventually, you have to get married.
"But by that time. And what to do. ”
"This ...... What can I do about this. Wei Yanyao was confused by Zhang Fan's words for a while. I don't know what Zhang Fan means by this. "This man is married. The big girl should get married. I won't be able to control those boys then. If you can get fame. Naturally, I don't have to worry about it. If not. There will inevitably be other ways out in the future. As for girls. In the future, if it is taken by a man from any family. Nature is also a good thing. Of course. I'll have to keep them in check. If you want to marry, you don't have to marry into a rich family. But you have to marry a good man. ”
"Sister Wei really treats these children as her own." Zhang Fan smiled. Said. "But what Sister Wei said just now. That's where the problem lies. The daughter's family naturally wants to marry in the end. When the time comes. Sister Wei is even as a mother. This matchmaker's words are also indispensable. But in the future. These daughters are really getting married. There must be a dowry. You can't just let your husband's family give a dowry. But there is no dowry here. Until that time. Sister Wei might be able to help one or two. But there are more than one or two of these daughters. What to do then? ”
"This ......" Zhang Fan's words made Wei Yanyao stunned. I have to say. Zhang Fan thought far ahead. And these are all questions that Wei Yanyao has never considered. It's not that Wei Yanyao can't think of this. After all, it's just human nature. Wait until later. It was impossible for Wei Yanyao not to think of it. But nowadays. She hadn't seen that far yet. But that doesn't mean. Now Zhang Fan has raised this question. How could she not think about it.
And she thought so. I found that this is indeed a problem. Trousseau. For a woman. This is no small matter. It can even be said that it can affect her later life. If you have a good dowry. Marry in style. In the future. It doesn't matter what the husband will think. The situation in her husband's family will naturally be much better.
If only with a shabby dowry. Not even anything. So how will the people of the husband's family look and treat it in the future? That's not easy to say.
And after Wei Yanyao thought of this. I couldn't help but feel even more upset. Oh, yes. On her own. Now feed so many orphans. Wei Yanyao was already very struggling. Thankfully now. The business of this tea house is very good. But it's just that it's just a balance.
Right now. To be able to get these children to go to school. Wei Yanyao was already annoyed with her brain. Fortunately. Now there is Zhang Fan willing to help. This can be regarded as the solution to her urgent need.
And in the future. What to do about this. On her own. If only to buy a dowry for one or two girls. so that they can marry in style. That's absolutely no problem. But now it's not just one or two people to think about. Right now. Of these twenty children. More than half of them are daughters. It's not hard to guess why. After all, this is a patriarchal era. Everyone wants to have a boy. Inheritance is not mentioned. It can also contribute to the family. Therefore. Throwing away daughters is not uncommon in this day and age.
And. And that's just for now. Who knows what will happen in the future. Will there be more orphan girls? Wei Yanyao is not the kind of person who will give up halfway. Since a batch has been taken in. There will definitely be a second batch.
When the time comes. I'm afraid Wei Yanyao is also powerless. Although now with Zhang Fan's help. Feeding these children is certainly not a problem. But what about the future.
"Xianggong." Yingyue said on the side. There was a sense of blame in his voice. "Now what to do with these troubles. Besides. The largest of them. I remember I was only six years old this year. The youngest was only four years old. It's been 10 years. That's not to say that you shouldn't think about it now. It's just that there's nothing to do right now. Rather than being upset by these. It's better to think about what's in front of you. ”
"yes." Zhao Xue on the side also accosted. "Besides. If there is no solution by then. Xianggong can't ...... there."
"Don't." At this time. Wei Yanyao opened her mouth to stop Zhao Xue. Said. "I can get help from adults. I was so happy. As Sister Yingyue said. It's still early in the world. Let's not think about that for now. Maybe then. I don't know what I can do. And...... Even if there is no good way to do it then. I can't trouble the adults anymore. ”
"That being the case. We'll talk about that later. Zhang Fan said with a smile. He didn't say that he had to help Wei Yanyao. But he didn't answer her, but he didn't ask. In a word. It's just ambiguous.
"That's what my lord said." Wei Yanyao also seems to want to escape this question. Said. "That's a question, though. But at least in a few years. Maybe I'll have a way to do it then. Even if not. It's never too late to say more. Now. Let's think about how to solve the problem of children going to school. ”
"That's what Sister Wei said." Zhang Fan said. "Now I'm going to talk about going to school and reading first. Let's talk about it.
"This thing. It's okay to say it's easy to do. It's hard to say. The difficulty is the difficulty. This gentleman is not easy to find. Most private schools and schools. are all people who have taken the Xiucai test but can't go further. While opening the museum, we teach. Earn some money. While teaching. It's better to study it yourself. In the future, I hope to be a lifter. Even Jinshi. Don't hide it from Sister Wei. I got a top score. Hence the saying. I know it all the better. It is said that the world's champion shows talent. At first glance, this sounds like this. It's like an appreciation. But this is not the case. Since he is a reader. Then he just wants to be able to gain fame in the future. And then it's even better. Seeking a half-official position. It's because you can't pass the test. There is only helplessness in my heart. Even if it's said so. On the surface it is happy. But every time I hear this, my heart. How could it not be sad?
"Sister Wei, don't doubt it. I don't mean to make any big sense by that. Just saying. This gentleman who teaches is really hard to find. If there are scholars who volunteer to teach. Then it's all well said. When the time comes, even if we spend some money to invite him. But there was nothing left.
"But these are the people who opened the school. Below there are already students. We can't force people in. ”
"What if the kids go to school there." Zhaoxue asked.
"It's not appropriate." Zhang Fan didn't wait for others to speak. And he spoke. "These children are orphans. No matter how much you hide it when the time comes. It will always be known to outsiders. And the people who read there. Most of them are children who are not a few years older than them. And people who can go to school. The family is also quite an asset. I'm afraid the kids will be bullied there. ”
"This ......" originally. Wei Yanyao also felt that what Zhao Xue said was good. listened to Zhang Fan's words. She thought about it too. Just hesitated. And after that. Her good impression of Zhang Fan instantly increased a lot. After all, these details. She hadn't thought of it at all. Zhang Fan thought clearly. had to make her have a good impression of Zhang Fan.
Of course. This favor doesn't mean anything else. It's really just a good feeling. And. Wei Yanyao was also happy for Yingyue and Zhaoxue. can marry someone like Zhang Fan. It is a blessing to them.
"Then let's invite a talent to teach." Zhao Xue didn't think that much. casually said another possibility.
"Lines are lines. But that's hard to find. Zhang Fan said. I've said it before. Which scholar doesn't want to be famous and become an official. Even if he is now over half a hundred years old. If you go to the imperial examination again, even if you win, you will have no hope of becoming an official. But the reader just has a temper. If it was his own decision, it would be better to say. But if someone else told him to do that. He will feel as if he has been insulted. It's hard to say yes. It's not about money. Even sometimes. The more you give. The less he will agree. And. You think you're such a money-loving person. What about the students he teaches? ”
"This ......," Zhang Fan said. Let Zhaoxue also be speechless.
"I know what the adults say." Wei Yanyao said. "Just now. There's nothing to be done. ”
"That's why I'm going to be needed here." Zhang Fan said. "You don't have to use your official rank to oppress others. Just find someone with some prestige. Go and make sense. That's it. ”
"Who are you going to go to? You can't be an official. Yingyue asked. Those who are in office. Isn't it much more troublesome than those who don't get in? ”
"Leave this matter to me. You don't have to worry about it. Zhang Fan said with a smile.
