Winter goes to spring, and in March, the spring breeze in the south of the Yangtze River blows away the severe cold of last year and the ice and snow all over the ground. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info although at this time in Wuchang City, is still full of devastation, but in the ruins and remnants, but has been erected one after another, although most of these buildings are still under construction, but it also shows that the city is getting rid of the trauma of war.

A large vacant land in the west of Wuchang City, is also a large construction state, but the house that is built is different from the old house, on the construction site, several blonde priests, is to guide the construction, this is the construction of "Wenshan Yishu", although it is in the name of "Yishu", but in fact, this Yishu is the first Western-style school in China. Although the school has not yet been built, the students of Yishu Middle School have already started to attend classes.

However, the classroom and classroom are only grass huts made of bamboo poles and straw mats, and even the students' desks are just wooden boards made of bricks, only the blackboard, which is still neat, is a wooden board made of black paint. Everything here is simple, at least until the school is built, they can only hold classes here, and the priests and nuns who come from all over the country at the call of the diocesan bishop have no complaints about this environment. Instead of complaining, they used their brushes to record everything and ask the Jesuits for financial support in a humble environment.

And under their brushes, there has never been a shortage of students who sit on bricks, lie on wooden boards, and write on bluestone slabs with plaster chalk, these students are all orphans without exception, but their biggest common point is that they are more or less literate, before their parents were forcibly recruited or killed by the Taiping army, they all had studied, but here, what they read and learned, is different from what they have learned in the past.

Although it was Sunday, in the midst of this mountain of righteousness, most of the young people of different ages were learning the newly learned foreign language, and for them, the most difficult thing was the foreign language to be learned.

"Alas, forced, thin, no, no......"

Holding the chalk in his hand, Du Xinyuan's forehead couldn't stop sweating, and even the sweat in his hand was soaking the chalk.

Originally, he just brought Ziyan to this camp for treatment, but who would have thought that he would enter this school inexplicably and learn this foreign code.

"Brother Shaolong, your head is really stupid......"

Seeing that Brother Shaolong still couldn't write more than 26 English letters on the bluestone slab, Fang Ziyan had already curled her lips slightly, and said dissatisfiedly.

"If you can't pass the test again, when the time comes, people will find out, and they will definitely drive you out of righteousness, what should I do when I see it......?"

"Ziyan, don't force me, it's really not good, I'll go out to be a soldier, and seek ...... in wealth and danger"

After staying in Yishu for a month, Du Xinyuan's vision finally improved a little and began to know the words.

"It's still rich and dangerous, I think you have it, even if you are a soldier, you also have to be literate, is it possible, you still want to be a big soldier for a few years? I heard that there is a camp school in the army, if you are literate, you can go in and study if you have made war exploits and are recommended by the commander, and the governor is the gentleman in the school, just you, if you don't learn to read, even if you become a soldier, you will break the sky, that is, a superior soldier......"

Liang Yuqiu looked at Du Xinyuan, who was sweating, and his tone was full of ridicule. For the 18-year-old, the reason why he entered this school was because he was afraid of being Latinized by the rebels, so he deliberately reported that he was a few years younger, but who would have thought that it was the difference of a few years that made him enter Yishu, and the one in front of him was even more stumbling into Shushu by mistake.

is a bit of a similar experience, which makes him take care of Du Xinyuan all the time, but there are some things, even if he takes care of it, he can't take care of it, after all, he still has to take exams in the future, especially this foreign language, not to mention Du Xinyuan, even if he learns, he has a headache.

"Be a soldier, be a soldier, you know how to be a soldier, Brother Shaolong, you must study hard, Uncle Du definitely hopes that you will have a career in the future......"

Fang Ziyan looked at Du Xinyuan nervously, as if she was afraid that he would really escape from Yishu, and even the dead Uncle Du was moved out by her, as soon as she said this, Du Xinyuan's pen was a meal, and after a while, he raised his head and looked at Ziyan embarrassedly.

"That, that, how is "Fu" written? ”

"You skull......

When Liang Yuqiu heard this, he shook his head even more, at this moment, he wanted to open this person's skull and see what was in his skull.

"If you can't pass the test again this time, Father Liu will definitely not spare you!"

Liang Yuqiu's Father Liu is their English priest, although his surname is Liu, but he is a blonde and blue-eyed foreigner, in fact, they do not only learn English, mathematics, geography, music, art, all need to be studied, and it is completely different from what they have studied in the past.

"No, I heard that Father Liu was invited by the Metropolitan Governor, and it is estimated that he may not be able to come back in a month or two."

"But don't forget, in addition to Father Liu, there is also Sister Camilla, when the time comes, be careful of her palms......"

Hearing Liang Yuqiu say this, Fang Ziyan was suddenly unhappy, after all, among those priests and nuns, her favorite was the extremely beautiful Sister Camilla.

"Sister Ka won't hit someone's palm, that Sister Ding will ......"

Fang Ziyan's defense made Liang Yuqiu smile secretly in her heart, and said in her heart, this person is beautiful, it is good, then Sister Camilla has to be good-looking and has a good personality, no wonder Fang Ziyan will defend her, as for Sister Ding in her mouth, it is just the opposite, not only is she strict, but also her appearance is extremely ugly, saying that she is a "foreign devil", if you remove a "foreign", her appearance is not a "ghost"!

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about Sister Ka, hey, actually, I've always felt that what's the use of us learning these foreign languages, Ziyan, look at this, it's like a ghost drawing talisman......"

Seeing that Zi Yanmei was a little angry, Du Xinyuan hurriedly changed the topic.

"I don't know!"

Shaking her head, Fang Ziyan said seriously.

"But what I think, even if the Metropolitan Governor asks us to learn this foreign language, there must be the intention of the Metropolitan Governor!"

When mentioning the Metropolitan Governor, Fang Ziyan even looked grateful, in fact, among the more than 1,600 people who are familiar with Wenshan, there are a few people who are not grateful to the Metropolitan Governor, if there is no Metropolitan Governor, let alone studying, I am afraid that they will not know where they starved to death for a long time, and even the woman may be abducted by human traffickers, and there will be like now, quietly studying here.

Will this really become a university hall one day?

Looking at the construction site in front of her, Liu Yuxin put down the books in her hand, and looked at the house that was taking shape, no different from other people, not even a book, as a few "senior students" in the entire Wenshan Yishu, she held the book given to them by Father Li in her hand.

But now, she didn't have the heart to read this book, because of one thing.

"Sister Yuxin, you say, is what Father Li said true?"

Again, Xiao Shanzi asked Sister Yuxin beside him, in the past, in the Minor Seminary, he was only twelve years old, and he had been relying on his sister who was only one and a half years older than him since he was five years old, and it was still the case, throughout the Minor Seminary, Sister Yuxin had been taking care of everyone.

"Huh?"

Liu Yuxin, who came back to her senses, looked at Xiao Shanzi.

"It's the Metropolitan Governor who wants to send us abroad to stay abroad!"

Liuyang is a new term for Xiaoshanzi and others, and even Father Li has never considered sending them to the foreigner's territory to continue their studies.

"Well, that day, when Father Li said that many of us are equivalent to Western middle school students, and we can teach others, the Metropolitan Governor said that he wants to send us to study abroad......"

Studying in the West?

What is the West like?

Liu Yuxin doesn't know much about the West, in fact, her understanding of the West comes entirely from Father Li's introduction, the so-called introduction, that is, through the wall chart, there is a certain understanding, but what does the West look like? She didn't know what she could learn when she got there.

"Sister Yuxin, are you going?"

Xiao Shanzi sat on the bricks, his chin in his hand, although he was only twelve years old, but according to Father Lee, he was even better at mathematics than many secondary school students, and perhaps in the future he would become a mathematician, if he went to a university in Europe, of course.

"Hmm!"

Nodding, Liu Yuxin's brows furrowed into a small group, go to Europe, half of the people in the Minor Seminary will go, and after arriving in Europe, they will disperse, go to England, France, Prussia and other countries, as for the future, when they will meet again, I'm afraid only God will know.

If she could, she didn't want to leave, she wanted to stay here, but she knew that she didn't have many choices, hugging her knees and looking at the construction site over there, a strand of hair fell from Liu Yuxin's forehead, and again, she thought of what she looked like when she first saw the young master last winter, perhaps, now the young master has forgotten herself......

It must be, if not, how can it be...... How could it be, but, now that he is a metropolitan governor, he is just a little girl in a small seminary...... How can people remember you, don't be delusional here.

Thinking like this in her heart, Liu Yuxin suddenly smiled again, as if she wanted to put away all the unhappiness, and touched Xiaoshan's head, his braids had been cut off, and only his hair was less than an inch long.

"Actually, it's good to go to the West, you see those priests, most of them are so important to the governors, isn't it because they have learned a lot of things in the West, Xiaoshanzi, you must study hard when you go to the West......

Liu Yuxin, who seems to be telling Xiaoshan, is actually persuading herself that maybe after she arrives in the West, she can learn more things, and wait until then...... (To be continued.) )
