Chapter 089: Giving a Name
As soon as Cai Dao announced the criteria for entering the school, it became a pot of porridge underneath, and at first he could hear the demands of several people clearly, but then he couldn't hear what everyone was saying at all.
Cai once again stepped forward to stabilize the situation, and stressed that if anyone continued to quarrel any more, his child would be immediately disqualified from entering the school.
Cai Dao once again emphasized the importance of rules: "Rules are rules, and the school will start on the day of the beginning of autumn." Anyone who is fifteen years old or less than five years old on that day will not be accepted by the school. Don't be discouraged if you are over fifteen years old, can you still go to the shipyard and learn carpentry? ”
"That's it! If anyone in the family is over the age of age, can you go back and have another one? Cai Yiyi echoed Cai Dao, looking at his smug appearance, for fear that others would not know that Widow Tian was pregnant with a child for him.
"By the way, Childe, the school doesn't talk about girls?" After Cai Yijian finished his witty words, he suddenly remembered his adopted daughter again.
As soon as he heard Cai Duji's words, Cai Dao knew that he was negligent: "Accept it, you must accept it." However, girls are not allowed to go to school. These children adopted by the family will go to Beijing with me this time, so you go down and inform these people that all girls under the age of fifteen in their families can be sent to our house, and I will arrange for someone to teach them at that time. As soon as we entered Beijing, these girls could be there immediately. ”
"Ladies and gentlemen, all men who don't know how to do carpentry work will be trained free of charge by the shipyard. However, too old folks can only teach for three months, and if they can't pass the audit after three months, they can also go to be a crew member. Of course, I don't have to force you to do anything, but if you still want to farm, you can continue to farm. You don't have to worry about the food, I'll take care of it. ”
"Even if the women want to plough the fields, they can do so, and there are still plenty of ploughing cattle at home. However, Ben Gongzi plans to open a new textile factory, and when the time comes, he will hire the women of Quan Xiaocili to work in the new factory, which is much more profitable than shaving food in the field. As for the fields in the house, you can hire tenants to farm in Xianyou County! Let you completely bear the pain of working day and night. ”
Cai Dao said this, the people in filial piety are his intentions tomorrow, this is to take care of the people in filial piety!
When you see the lives of shipyard workers, you know that what Childe said is true. The pay here is good, the food is good, and even the lowest apprentices can earn much more than they earn for a year of hard work on the land!
After the announcement, Cai Dao recruited the one hundred and eight adopted orphans into the courtyard of the new mansion since the people dispersed.
"Children, in a while, you will enter Beijing with my son. After entering Beijing, whether the boys leave or stay depends on the meaning of the official family. Naturally, the girls continued to stay in the Cai family. After speaking, Cai Dao looked at the children below.
The girls, big or small, all have heartfelt smiles on their faces. Since entering the Cai family, they are called slaves, but Cai Dao and Cai Xi have always regarded them as relatives. No matter where they go, as long as they are still by Childe's side, they will be satisfied.
The boys have different expressions, the younger ones may not be able to understand the meaning of Cai Dao's words, and the older ones also know the meaning of the official family through Cai Xi and Cai Dao's usual words and deeds. Some of these children had joy on their faces, and they were able to register in front of the official family, even if they left the Cai family, it was not unacceptable. Some children change their faces and don't know what they are worried about.
Cai Dao waited for a while, let these children digest their words, and then said: "Just like when you first entered the Cai family, this son said, when the boys grow up, they will all be surnamed Song, and after entering Beijing, I or the official family will find you a teacher with excellent knowledge to teach you, and maybe, the official family will also name you personally." If anyone grows up and has talent in this area, it is not impossible for Donghuamen to roll up when he grows up. ”
"And if the girl is willing to keep her original surname, I am not reluctant, no matter what, you are all relatives of the Cai family. I'm going to name you myself today. ”
"Wow! Great, we finally have a name of our own! ”
As soon as the little girls below heard that the son was going to choose a name for them personally, they jumped up excitedly one by one.
When Cai Dao said this just now, he deliberately paused, just to see who had the most prestige among the children. "Guess who will be the first to accept the name of this son?"
"Sister Flower!"
"Sister Flower!"
“……”
The girls shouted almost in unison, and unexpectedly, the first to enjoy this honor was naturally ......
It seems that Cai Dao knows that Sister Hua is popular among the children, but he still completely underestimates Sister Hua's 'popularity'.
Sister Hua is ten years old this year, she is the oldest of all the children, and the first child to come to Cai's mansion and finally stay by Cai Dao's side. When Cai Dao was three years old, the first wave of recruits, and the other four half-sized children at that time were already considered adults. Two of them entered Cai Xuan's house and became stewards of the grange; The other two also entered Cai Jing's old man's house as a steward, and one of them even became a second housekeeper.
She is so popular, not by such an identity, the child around Cai Dao, that is, she has been working hard to learn the knowledge given to her by Cai Dao, Cai Bucket also wants to keep up with the progress, but the reaction is too slow, and the memory is relatively poor, Cai Ban is very smart, but unfortunately he is too young, and his playfulness is heavier than anything else. The other children are more or less in the same situation as Cai Ban.
Moreover, Sister Hua has been taking care of these children who have entered the Cai family instead of Cai Dao, and has tried her best to help these children adapt to the life of the Cai family as soon as possible. Cai Dao is called 'prestige' among the children, and Sister Hua is called 'child' among the children! Cai Dao has always been a shopkeeper, so it's no wonder that she is so popular with children.
"Sister Hua, are you sure you still want to have the surname Hua?" Before naming her again, Cai Dao still has to confirm it again.
"Slave and maid are sure, thank you for the name! Don't call the slave sister in the future, the slave can't afford it. Sister Hua knelt in front of Cai Dao and said softly.
Seeing that Sister Hua was in this way again, Cai Dao had no choice, he had already told her that she didn't need to kneel, and she promised to do it well, but she still had to do it every time. He said helplessly: "We all grew up drinking Mulan Creek water, and there was already Mulan in ancient times, so from today on, you will call it Hualanxi!" ”
"Xie Gongzi gives the name!" Hua Lanxi even kowtowed Cai Dao three times.
