Yonghui five years, the ninth day of February.

After the bell rang, Mr. Yang, who was teaching history lessons to the students in the second-grade class A classroom of Lanxi Academy, put down the scroll in time, threw half of the chalk into the wooden box on the table, and patted his hands stained with white ash.

"Alright, that's all for today's lesson."

Under the podium, all 40 students smiled. After nine days of classes, I was finally able to take another day off.

The college system has one day off for ten days, one day off for nine days, and three days off for one month. Except for holidays, students are subject to strict discipline like a military camp in the college, and the school gate is closed in normal times, and students are not allowed to step out of the school gate, and all food and accommodation are in the school.

There is a strict arrangement for the daily routine, the clock rings before dawn, dressing and washing, running and doing exercises in the morning, and then self-study in the morning. After the morning self-study, I have to queue up for breakfast. After a short break after dinner, it is a morning of study, and a break at noon, there are also many rules, and there is no noise.

I studied in the afternoon, and I had to study on my own in the evening.

The students also have to take turns on duty, responsible for the sanitation and cleaning of all parts of the college, including the canteen, toilets, etc., their tableware and clothes have to be washed by themselves, and they even have to take turns to be on duty in the Li family compound to serve as a small waiter.

Every ten years, there is also a day of labor class. There is a large piece of wasteland behind the academy, and the teacher takes the students to cultivate the wasteland in the wasteland, growing both food and vegetables, to complete self-sufficiency, and even they have planted mulberry trees, raised silkworms, planted beds, and weaved cloth.

Whether it is the children of the landlord's family or the children of the villager's family, they are all treated equally here. Last year, as long as the landlord's children had money, they could even spend money on extra meals, but from this year, the food and accommodation will be exactly the same, and it is said that from next year, the college plans to let the senior students take turns to be responsible for cooking.

This kind of study and life is actually very intense, the schoolwork is very heavy, and there is a lot of various exercises, the schedule is very tight, and the entertainment is also a very confrontational sports such as football.

The children are very young, and after the intense ten years of studying, they all want to be able to return home early, see their families, and relax for a day.

Zhang Baiyang carefully closed his textbook, which was a handwritten book, a blank book cut and bound on white paper, and then copied by the teacher himself.

He cherished it very much, such a book, even if it was a manuscript, it was very valuable, at least his poor family could not afford such a book.

"Today is the end of October, so I have one less class in the afternoon and no self-study in the evening. Dinner has been prepared in advance in the cafeteria, so you can go to eat after class, or if you are in a hurry, you can also pack and take it home to eat. Remember to walk together on the road and pay attention to safety. ”

Master Yang's gaze swept over these students, "I know that you are very nervous about studying in the academy, and you miss your family. Relax when you get home, but don't forget all the books you've been reading this decade. Before tomorrow evening, everyone will rush back to the academy to study at night, and anyone who is late or not will be punished at that time. ”

"Alright, class."

The curriculum and teaching of the academy are all in accordance with the syllabus made by Li Xiao, with the help of Li Zhi, and now there are eleven formal gentlemen in the academy, and the teachers are very sufficient. In addition, there are guest teachers such as Li Xiao and Wan Niang, who come to help teach from time to time.

Four classes of students, a total of 160 students, divided into two grades.

There are a lot of subjects to learn, not only the number of etiquette and music shooting books of the six arts of the gentleman, but also more detailed. In addition to the young age, horseback riding, and driving were not taught, other rituals and music were taught, calligraphy, arithmetic, and painting were also taught.

There are even Gewu, who talk about some simple physics, teach geography, and teach geography. There are handicraft classes, teaching some manual skills, etc., in the words of Cheng Lao Wu, the teaching in Lanxi Academy is quite miscellaneous, and it is simply messy.

I even have to train students every day, in the morning in the morning, in the morning I even have to do a recess exercise, and there is a physical education class every day.

"Goodbye, teacher!"

Zhang Baiyang followed the class leader's command, and bowed to the teacher with the whole class to thank him.

When the teacher leaves the classroom, the students are much less restrained.

Zhang Qinghua from Zhang Baiyang's same village had already rushed to his desk with his schoolbag, "You haven't packed it yet, hurry up, I can't wait to go home." ”

Zhang Baiyang said, "I think about the homework assigned by the mountain chief at the end of the decade, on the book burning pit Confucianism of Qin Shi Huang and the exclusive Confucianism of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, this topic feels so difficult, I have to write a three-hundred-word commentary." ”

"It's not too late to write after I come back tomorrow for self-study and self-study."

Zhang Qinghua's original name was Liu Cai, and when he arrived at the academy, Yang Shanchang named him Zhang Qinghua. And Zhang Baiyang was originally called Xiaogen, and the mountain chief named him Baiyang, both of them are children of Zhuang households, they are both eight years old this year, slightly older among their classmates, and they have changed a lot during this time in the academy, they have become whiter, their eyes are much more confident, and they have even grown taller and stronger.

"Bai Yang, have you heard, our teacher is going to form an association, I heard that as long as you join the cooperative, you can take a cow home to feed, as long as you feed the cow well, when it comes to farming, you can use this cow for free, no rent at all."

"Where did you hear that?" When Zhang Baiyang heard this, his eyes lit up. He and Zhang Qinghua used to be shepherd boys of the landlord's family in the next village, herding cattle every day in exchange for a free lunch. They don't have cattle at home, and when they are farming, they have to borrow cattle from the landlord, and they have to take out 10% of the land in their homes as cattle rent.

"The lady in the next class said."

"Ah, really, if it was said by the virgin lady, then it is really possible."

Zhen Niangzi is Li Zhen, Li Xiao's sister, who is now in the next class and is still the class president.

The students of the academy all called Li Zhen Zhen Zhen Niangzi, and then called Li Xiao as a teacher. Although there are more than ten teachers in the entire academy now, the students call others either the chief of the mountain or the sir, and only Li Xiao calls the teacher.

This can be regarded as a special respect for Li Xiao, the honorary mountain chief and guest gentleman, everyone knows that they can come to study, all thanks to Li Xiao.

"Did Zhen Niangzi say that there are any requirements for joining the club?"

"It seems that it has to be Princess Lantian's seal." Zhang Qinghua told his companions what he had heard.

"Our family is the princess's fiefdom, right? Then our family is qualified? Zhang Baiyang breathed a sigh of relief.

"But the princess's household is 800 households, and if everyone joins the cooperative to receive cattle, Mr. will not have so many cattle, right?" Zhang Qinghua said. Eight hundred households, one household will get eight hundred head of oxen.

Zhang Baiyang was anxious, and picked up his schoolbag, "Then why are you still stunned, hurry home, tell the family immediately, let them go to the village immediately to find Mr. to join the cooperative to receive the cattle, if you go late, you won't be able to get it." ”

"yes, let's go."

The two teenagers couldn't even take care of the free dinner at the end of the academy, so they ran home with their schoolbags on their backs.

As the college went home at the end of the decade, the news that Li Xiao was going to set up a cooperative and that he would be able to adopt a cow for free after joining the club also spread immediately.
