In the New Year, the new son-in-law came to the door, but was called by the old father-in-law, and the young master Liang, who was already a little overwhelmed, looked embarrassed, and was hesitating whether to draw a three-dimensional three-dimensional view of Hanyang for his father-in-law, and Rong Hong, who was already anxious next to him, opened his mouth to help him out of the siege.

"Brother Xuecun, don't stare at your son-in-law and ask, something has happened to our University of Shanghai for Science and Technology!"

Rong Hong's astonishing words startled Xu Shou: "What's wrong?" ”

"Alas, we forgot a big thing, patronizing the university, which does not have a primary school or a middle school, where will we recruit students in the future?"

Uh, Xu Shou also paused for a moment, and was silent for a while before speaking: "There are still some young people in Shanghai who like to learn Gezhi, if it is not enough, recruit some from the Cantonese Dialect Museum, but it is really not easy to recruit people in the future."

It was not until 1874 that preparations for the construction of Shanghai's first Western-style school, Gezhi Academy, began, and in 1876, Shanghai Gezhi Academy was officially opened. And one of the founders of this school is Young Master Liang's current father-in-law, Xu Shou.

Rong Hong paused for a moment and said, "I'll call them over, and the big guys will discuss it together", and then turned around and went out.

Soon, the living room of Xu Shou's house was full of friends, Li Shanlan, who is also a professor of the University of Shanghai for Science and Technology, Hua Yufang, of course, was present, and four foreigners, the Englishman Wei Liali and his sixteen-year-old daughter Mary, Fu Lanya, and the American Lin Lezhi, they are all missionaries sent to China by the British and American churches, and they are also translators of the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau, and now they are also employed by Rong Hong as a professor of the University of Shanghai for Science and Technology; There is also a non-professor, but an alumnus of Yung Wing and Leung Sze-han's Morrison School in Hong Kong, and a comprador Tang Tingshu of Jardine Matheson in the United Kingdom.

Tang Tingshu also left a strong mark in the original history, he was a famous industrialist and national capitalist in the late Qing Dynasty; Together with Xu Run, another fellow villager from Xiangshan, Guangdong, he founded China Merchants Steamship and Kaiping Coal Mine; They are not only well-run, but also very patriotic, and Tang Tingshu was also the earliest board member of the historical Shanghai Gezhi Academy; Guangdong students at Morrison's School, such as Tang Tingshu and Yung Hong, understood that only by advocating Western-style education could China catch up with the great powers.

At that time, the vast majority of Chinese students enrolled by Morrison School in Hong Kong came from Xiangshan County, Guangdong, and most of the American students recruited by Yung Hong were also from Xiangshan County.

The three foreign professors in this group are all familiar with Chinese, including Wei Liali's daughter, who can also speak Chinese, and the rest of the Chinese are fluent in English, so the pronunciation in the living room is both English and Chinese, but there is no sense of disobedience, and this kind of situation is probably the only one in the Qing Dynasty at this time.

And Xu Huiying, the fiancée of Master Liang, could only stay in her boudoir because of traditional Chinese etiquette, but she couldn't resist her curiosity and quickly touched the staircase lightly, occasionally looked around, and listened to the conversation in the living room, mainly to listen carefully to her fiancé's voice.

In these years, free love is not in vogue from time to time, just because of a proposal by Li Shanlan at the last dinner, Liang Sihan and Xu Huiying, two young people who have never met before, were condemned for life; To the unbelievability of future generations, Xu Huiying, who is both talented and good-looking, has no discomfort or objections; Cover is therefore the situation of the world, there is no comparison, there is no harm!

The people in the living room were discussing, and Young Master Liang saw that everyone had no good way, so he simply put forward his suggestion: "My opinion is that we directly set up the affiliated middle school and affiliated primary school of the University of Shanghai for Science and Technology; The duration of primary and secondary schools is five years, and children aged six or seven are enrolled in primary school, and graduates of Morrison School can attend secondary school if they have a certain foundation; As for the subject content of primary and secondary schools, I will refer to similar schools in Europe and the United States, and I believe that all of you are familiar with these subject contents."

Young Master Liang's words made the living room fall silent for a while, and everyone was thinking about the feasibility of this suggestion; However, his decisive approach attracted the attention of Mary, an English girl; Girls are naturally more appreciative of men's strength, and Young Master Liang, who has both the elegant knowledge of a technical expert and the special temperament of the awe-inspiring momentum of a superior, has produced an inexplicable attraction.

After speaking, Master Liang felt the heat projected by this blonde and blue eyes, in his previous life, he had also been in contact with foreign girls when he was studying abroad, and he was deeply impressed by the openness and hotness of foreign girls, he was not embarrassed to look at the other party just now, and secretly looked at this British chick while the big guys were thinking.

The sixteen-year-old girl has basically matured, the convex place is obvious, and the place that should be closed is abrupt; Only then did Young Master Liang realize that the British girl opposite was absolutely hot, with delicate facial features, fair skin, golden hair, and blue eyes, as if a three-dimensional and colorful oil painting was eye-catching, and Young Master Liang's eyes were uncontrollably attracted.

Soon, the eyes of the two met in the air, glued, and merged······ A teenager with an uncle's soul and a sixteen-year-old British Lori have an inexplicable chemical reaction.

As a result, our Young Master Liang suddenly realized that the blood in his body was desperately rushing to one place; The fourteen-year-old boy suddenly opened the floodgates, the height, the scale, the hardness, the tsk, the surprise accompanied the shyness, everything was in plain sight······

Xu Huiying, who was hiding upstairs, was still peeking at her fiancé, and the handsome young man had already attracted her heart, at this time she finally put her mind at ease, all the previous speculations about her fiancé were all spread out today, there was nothing to worry about, on the contrary, everything was satisfactory, and the little girl who had fulfilled her wish touched back to the boudoir lightly, hiding in the room and secretly rejoicing.

didn't know that her best friend, the British chick, and her fiancé were already secretly flirting; Alas, although it is now 1869, the phrase "fire prevention, theft prevention, and girlfriend prevention" is still useful!

Rong Hong, who had been thinking about it for a long time, didn't notice this scene, he cleared his throat and spoke first: "Senior Brother Liang's suggestion is still more practical, anyway, we are in such a big place now, and the house is also very rich, and a part of it is set aside to build an affiliated primary school and middle school, but we just need to hire some more teachers."

Xu Shou also said: "Let's do it, the requirements of teachers in primary and secondary schools are not too high, you can still find them, but this textbook will trouble a few of you."

Fu Lanya was the most enthusiastic, nodded and said, "There is no problem with the teaching materials; It's just that the students here are afraid that they have to learn both English and Chinese, so it's better for you to make the Chinese textbooks."

Bilingual teaching, the starting point of the primary school and the high school attached to the University of Shanghai for Science and Technology is so high.
