Chapter 62: Ten Bars of Bacon

The anxious old Liu made a decision on the same day, and his grandson Liu Huizu was attached to the Li Family School in the future. Liu Huizu is really like a grandson, he didn't even dare to say a word and was represented by Lao Liu.

He directly left his grandson in the Li family compound and went back by himself. Li Xiao sent it to the door, and Lao Liu said loudly, "Don't send it, I'll come back tomorrow, and I'll send Shu Xiu and tuition fees at that time." A hundred catties of bacon and dried fish will be used as Mr.'s bundle repair, and a calf will be used as the tuition fee for the attached school, don't shirk it anymore, and if you push it again, you will look down on your old Uncle Liu. ”

The calf he brought with him was also kept, and he said it was a gift for the first meeting, and the cow was not counted as tuition.

"Uncle's family doesn't have anything else, it's just that there are a lot of cows and sheep."

Many other landlords in the courtyard who had come to the courtyard wanted to vomit blood. This Liu's head is broken today, how can he speak so arrogantly.

There are a lot of cattle and sheep, and I am usually reluctant to let him send a cow hair.

"Lao Liu wants his precious grandson to come here to study?"

"Is the Li family's school really that good?"

"Isn't it all a place for the children of the mud-legged tenants to read? What can be read in such a place? ”

Someone shook his head, "Lao Liu is the best, since he is willing to bleed so much to send his children to study, it seems that this school is really not simple, it is estimated that this Lao Liu has already inquired." ”

Some people are wondering if even the shrewd and fox-like Lao Liu has to send his grandson to study, so can they also consider it.

"A hundred catties of bacon and dried fish for bunching, and a calf for tuition, this is too expensive, right?" Some people are reluctant and feel that the flesh hurts.

Everyone knows that if you have the opportunity, you should let your child read some books, don't be blind, don't ask for the imperial examination in the future, but you always have to know a few words.

However, the number of government schools in the county and the state is limited, and it is not so easy to enter, and there are few private schools in general, so it is difficult to pass. If the Li family's school can come to study, it would be good, but the tuition fee is too expensive.

Someone was moved and came over to ask Li Xiao about the school.

In these years, when I was studying, I generally didn't pay tuition, and the teacher was called Shu Xiu, which was usually ten pieces of bacon.

This was a ritual practiced during the time of Confucius, and when students and teachers met for the first time, they would first give gifts to show their respect.

This is both a gift and a tuition.

However, in ordinary private schools, the teacher does not collect tuition from the students, but the clan or some large families are responsible for the teacher's salary, and the cultivation is just another etiquette.

But ordinary people, even if they don't have to pay tuition fees in a joint venture, they can't get ten pieces of bacon, not to mention that they have to spend paper, ink, pen and inkstone for studying, and this cost is even greater.

"The Li family's school is a family school, providing the Li family and the Li family's relatives and friends with the opportunity to study. However, if everyone is interested, then you really need to pay some tuition, and the teacher's restraint has to be given, which is etiquette. ”

"The school implements boarding, board and lodging are in the school, the management is strict, and the teaching is strict. If you can accept it, you can send your children here, Shu Xiu is ten pieces of bacon per year, and the tuition fee is five stone rice a year. In addition, stationery charges are not included. ”

Since everyone has this willingness to go to school, Li Xiao feels that there is no need to refuse, anyway, the Li family is equal to several teachers, and there is no problem in teaching a few more children, and charging a few more self-funded students can also make up for the expenses of the next school.

As for the tuition standard he set, he felt that it was not expensive, five stone rice a year, but it included the student's room and board. Although the students are young, they are the age when they can eat, one liter of rice a day, and three buckets a month. What's more, you have to ask for money to eat vegetables, and it is not an exaggeration for Li Xiao to only accept five stone rice a year.

This burden is generally borne by the landlord's family.

Ten pieces of bacon is the old rule, everything is almost like this, this is a gift for Mr.

As soon as you hear it, the tuition fee of this attached school is not too expensive, ten pieces of bacon and five stone rice a year, which seems to be much less than what Lao Liu said just now.

"Let the children come here to study, can't I send someone to pick them up and take them home every day?" Some people feel sorry for their children, who are young, and if they eat, live and study here, it is estimated that it will be very hard.

"To study is to endure hardship, if you can't endure hardship at all, how to be self-reliant, and how to become a talent. The school is closed for teaching, and you can take one day off every ten days and go home. At other times, you must eat and live in the school, and there are strict rules on the time for eating, sleeping, and studying every day. In addition to studying, they also have to do some hygiene as much as they can, and they also have to participate in physical exercise, so to speak, they will work hard, but this hard work will train people and make them successful. You all want your children to be successful in the future, and you want them to be better, not a loser who only knows how to squander and doesn't know anything, right? ”

Ugly things have to be said in advance, we can't send our children now, and after a few days, we are afraid that the children will suffer.

If you don't come up with rules and discipline them, how can the school have a good atmosphere?

Whether it is the cub of the landlord's family or the child of the tenant's family, they must be taught equally and let them suffer the same.

This has to be the same as those Western church schools, with strict rules and good polishing of them.

Even if Li Xiao's original intention to collect these students was to earn some tuition fees and balance the expenses of the school, he had to be responsible for them and teach them well.

"I'll think about it."

"Talk to the child's father."

Some people began to hesitate, the children in the family are usually very spoiled, where are they willing to endure hardships like this. But this is also a good opportunity, everyone hesitates.

Li Xiao is completely Zhou Yu's attitude of beating Huang Gai, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. If you are willing, you will send someone here, and if you send someone here, it means that you accept our policy of running the school, and you will have to listen to us in the future.

If you don't want to, that's okay, anyway, I can't teach too many students in this school now.

As soon as Li Xiao's school rules came out, it did blow a whirlwind among the landlords.

Everyone didn't expect that the Li family's family rules were so strict and so strict. It sounds like it's as strict as the barracks.

Liu Datou only laughed when he heard this, and the next day he brought a few tenants to pull a cart of bacon and dried fish, and also brought a cow.

Li Xiao agreed to accept Liu Huizu as an attached student in the school, but still stated that Shu Xiu and the tuition would not be overcharged.

Liu Datou refused to bring more back, and finally Liu Datou patted his head smartly, saying that Shu Xiu sent ten pieces of bacon and five stone rice for tuition, and the calf and the extra dozens of catties of bacon were donated by him to the school, and they were not gifts.

Li Xiao accepted it with a smile this time, "I will write down all this money, and I will go back and ask people to make a monument in front of the school hall and record it truthfully." The money will also be kept in a book, all of which will be used for the school's expenses, and each expense will be recorded in the account and made public. ”

"Well, San Lang is magnificent, very good, I'll donate another five stone rice." Liu's head is particularly generous and bold this time.

"I'll have someone engrave a monument tomorrow!"
