"Teacher Liu, do you think there is anything lacking in the education program implemented by the empire?" Seeing Liu Feiya's thoughtful look, Chen Shao didn't want to expose himself now, he had already taken off his hat, and there was no hat to cover it, so it was easier to see. So Chen Shao asked this question to divert the other party's attention.

Chen Shao's words interrupted Liu Feiya's thoughts, and now the more she looks at Chen Shao, the more she feels like that, but she didn't say this conjecture.

"Mr. Chen seems to be concerned about the education of the empire!" Liu Feiya did not immediately answer Chen Shao's question.

"As a citizen of the Empire, it is natural to care about your country. Education is the foundation of the country, and Yun'er is the golden age of learning, so I would take the liberty to ask Mr. Liu's opinion. Chen Shao said.

Liu Feiya thought for a while and said: "The empire attaches great importance to children's education, as Mr. Chen said, it is the foundation of the country. The fact that the Empire has done a good job in this regard, and the fact that the Emperor himself holds the post of Minister of Education is also a testament to the importance that the Empire attaches to the education of its citizens. Just like our school, there are not only elementary school students, but also Saturdays and Sundays every week, and there are also open doors for the elderly people in the society to come in and learn cultural knowledge. Many of them are in their thirties, and now they want to come to read and learn calligraphy, and for those who are sincere in their studies, our school has a special teacher to teach them, and they implement a free policy like elementary school students. Try to enable as many people as possible to grasp more cultural knowledge. ”

"Will this increase the burden on your school? Is this unique to your school? Chen Shao's heart jumped.

"Except for the loss of some teaching supplies, there is no other burden, and the education funds can be received every month, which does not affect the students' food and learning. It's just that the principal has to go to the education department every month and beg for more chalk, which was originally rationed, but now with the addition of two Sundays, it is not enough every month. As for other schools, they naturally have this practice, but it is almost the Chinese New Year that the school announced that it has stopped. Liu Feiya said.

Liu Feiya's words made Chen Shao fall into contemplation, in the past, when he was in the southwest, this was very common, and at that time, many people worked during the day and went to study at night. Now seeing that such a learning boom has spread to the whole country, Chen Shao is very happy in his heart. When the people are rich and strong, cultural knowledge is also a strong part. Only when the quality of the country's citizens goes up, can the people of the country say this strong word, because the strong word does not mean that the whole country will be strong when the military strength is strong.

"Why can't you get the chalk and plead?" The section in Liu Feiya's words where the principal begged for chalk attracted Chen Shao's attention.

"Alas! I heard from the principal that there are countless large and small schools in Hanjing, and they are all the same as our school, and there is not enough chalk, and this thing is not enough to save no matter how much it is. The education department is also trying its best to help, but the demand is still very large, and every month is a situation of more monks and less porridge. Liu Feiya shook her head and sighed.

Chen Shao was directly stunned, how could chalk be lacking? And why didn't I receive such a recital? Chalk is not a complicated thing, there is no difficulty in manufacturing at all, not to mention a month's worth of chalk supplied to the whole country, even if it is made at one time for a year or two, there is no problem.

Seeing that Chen Shao was in deep thought when he heard his words, Liu Feiya did not speak again, and unconsciously looked at Chen Shao who was thinking. Chen Yun also sat on the side very well-behaved, looking at his father, and then at his teacher. There was a brief silence in the dormitory.

After a long time, Chen Yun's stomach rang. Chen Yun opened her mouth and said to Chen Shao: "Dad, I'm hungry." ”

At this time, Chen Shao reflected, raised his hand and looked at his watch, it was almost eleven o'clock now. I used to be playing around on the street, but now two or three hours have passed unconsciously. Chen Yun, who just ate some porridge in the morning, jumped up and down along the way, and it was strange that he was not hungry.

Chen Yun's words made Liu Feiya come back to her senses, remembering that she had been staring at a man just now, her heart couldn't help beating rapidly, and her face, which was already a little ruddy, suddenly became redder. However, when he saw that Chen Shao didn't notice her, his nervous heart relaxed a lot. In order to alleviate the embarrassment in her heart, before Chen Shao could speak, Liu Feiya immediately spoke: "Wait a minute, the teacher will go and order you a bowl of noodles." ”

After speaking, without waiting for Chen Shao to refuse, he got up directly and walked to an independent small kitchen inside, walking very fast, as if he wanted to escape from here. In fact, she was afraid that Chen Shao would see her face, and she could feel that her face was hot.

Chen Shao, who was sitting opposite, was stunned, and he originally wanted to say goodbye. Now seeing that Liu Feiya is so hospitable, she didn't wait for her to agree, so she went to work, and she was embarrassed to refuse for a while.

"Dad, aren't we going back to dinner?" Chen Yun said.

"Since your teacher has gone to Xiamen, you can eat a little first, and we won't go back in the afternoon, how about Dad take you to play?" Chen Shao had decided to squeeze out a day to accompany his daughter, but after hearing Liu Feiya's words just now, Chen Shao decided not to go back at noon.

"But what about Mom? Just stay at home alone. Although Chen Yun was very happy with Chen Shao's decision, she still cared about Xie Yuxin, who was alone at home.

"Mom has a baby in her belly and can't go out to play with Yun'er, so how about we let her rest at home? Wait a minute, you and the teacher stay here, I'll go out and make a phone call to inform your mother, tell her, go down and dad will take you to play. Chen Shao said.

"Hmm!" Chen Yun nodded.

Just as Chen Shao and Chen Yun were chatting, Liu Feiya, who was cooking noodles in the small kitchen, recalled Chen Shao's contemplative face just now. Thinking of this, the ruddy color on Liu Feiya's face increased a little. In her heart, this is the first time she has encountered such an experience. Originally, I wanted to meet Chen Yun's parents, and suggested that they squeeze more time to come out and spend time with their children. When I saw Chen Shao before, I just felt familiar and approachable. But when Chen Shao was thinking about the problem, that kind of focused look, and his face, which originally looked approachable, also became very majestic, making people feel daunted.

However, these are not Liu Feiya's concerns, what she pays attention to is the temperament that Chen Shao invisibly exudes. Even Liu Feiya herself didn't know how to describe it, she looked very serious and looked very charming. Although it looks very majestic, in her opinion, there is still a feeling that she can't help but get close to him and get to know him, which is very attractive.

After Liu Feiya walked out with the noodles, her face had recovered a lot, and her ruddy appearance had lost a lot. A bowl of egg noodles with a little greens looks pretty good.

Liu Feiya brought the noodles to Chen Yun, handed the chopsticks in her hand to Chen Yun and said, "Chen Yun, you eat carefully, it's a little hot." ”

"Hmm!" I took the chopsticks and ate them carefully.

"Teacher Liu, Yun'er will stay with you for a while, and I'll go out and make a call first. I'll be right back. Chen Shao got up and spoke.

"It's okay, Chen Yun will leave it to me." Liu Feiya nodded.

"Then it's troublesome." Chen Shao picked up the hat hanging on the small hook, nodded to Liu Feiya, put on the hat and walked out.

After Chen Shao left for two minutes, Liu Feiya thought about it and asked Chen Yun, who was eating noodles, "Chen Yun, what does your father do?" ”

"Work!" Chen Yun replied casually, she knew who her father was, but since she was a child, Chen Shao had taught her not to tell others what her father did outside. Chen Yun has been very smart since she was a child, and she now understands these things slightly.

"What kind of work, why are you so busy, I don't have time to accompany you." Chen Yun's answer was unclear, and Liu Feiya had no choice but to continue asking, she now wanted to know what Chen Shao did, and even she didn't know why this was why she cared so much about a man who had met for less than an hour.

"I work not far from my house, and I'm very busy every day, and when I grow so big, I haven't gone out with my mother a few times." Chen Yun said while eating noodles: "Especially the uncle surnamed Wang, who often comes to disturb my father's rest time, every time he takes a lot of documents to my father to sign, and every day is in a hurry, I haven't seen him rest." ”

"Oh, who's that dad?" Chen Yun's words made Liu Feiya a little confused about what Chen Shao did.

"I know this, it's my dad's secretary. Every time he came, I couldn't play with my dad. Now that my mother has a baby again, every time I finish my homework, I am so bored. Chen Yun pouted when she talked about Wang Jie. In her impression, Wang Jie is the saboteur, every time she and her father are having fun, Wang Jie will come over, making Chen Yun the last thing she wants to see Wang Jie now.

Secretary, this word made Liu Feiya's thoughts a little confused, at this time, except for government departments, it seems that there is no such title in China. However, Liu Feiya still couldn't think of going there, although it seemed that this Chen Shao looked like the emperor of the empire, and the name was the same, but she still felt that it was just a coincidence. After all, one is a high-ranking emperor in his opinion, and the other is just the father of an ordinary student, which is too incomparable.

"Is your mother pretty?" Liu Feiya asked again.

"Well, it's as beautiful as a teacher." Chen Yun said.

"Don't you have an aunt?" Chen Yun's words made Liu Feiya's heart rise with an inexplicable joy, but in the face of this era when she was still three wives and four concubines, Liu Feiya asked again.

"No! Before going to bed at night, I often heard my mother tell my father to find another aunt, but every time my father didn't agree. Chen Yun thought for a while and then spoke: "My father's subordinates, each of them has several wives, especially the little brothers I know, and they have several aunts in their families. When it comes to it, we have the least number of people in our family. ”

The subordinates who appeared in Chen Yun's later sentence hooked Liu Feiya's heart again, but she didn't continue to ask these questions. In these questions and answers, she has already received many answers. Chen Shao's identity is not simple, and it is very likely that he is a government official. and Chen Shao loves his wife very much, in this society with a group of wives and concubines, there are too few men who can keep their original matches alone without taking concubines. Especially for people like Chen Shao, who don't look like they don't have money, it's even rarer.

"Do you like your dad to find another aunt?" After Liu Feiya asked this question, even she herself was startled, and even she couldn't figure out why she asked such a question.

"I think, my home used to be very deserted, but now when I move to Hanjing, the house is too big and even more deserted. I'd love to find another one for my dad so that I can have more people to play with me, and have more little brothers and sisters so that I won't be bored. When Chen Yun said it, her face was hopeful, as if she had seen a fun toy. She has always been very envious of Kong Wenhong, and a large number of children in their family can play together. But those children didn't dare to play with themselves. This made Chen Yun very distressed, and she always looked forward to having a bunch of little brothers and sisters at home.

"Where did you live before?" Liu Feiya was surprised by Chen Yun's answer, it looked really unusual.

"Nanning, the scenery there is beautiful, and the streets are full of colorful neon lights at night, which are very charming when they flash." Chen Yun said.

At this time, Liu Feiya could already be sure that Chen Shao was definitely a high-ranking official of the empire, but he looked too similar to the emperor, that is, even the name was the same, which made Liu Feiya feel very strange.

"Chen Yun, what's your mother's name?" Liu Feiya thought for a while and asked, even if she didn't believe that an emperor of an empire would put her daughter in an ordinary school to go to school with the children of other people, but after these conversations, Chen Yun revealed more and more clues, so that Liu Feiya had to think about it. Now you just need to confirm what Chen Yun's mother's name is, and it is very important to know that the emperor of the empire now has only one queen-

Chen Shao didn't know about the conversation in the house, after walking out of the school gate, in a corner where no one was around, Chen Shao recruited the guards who were secretly protecting him, and told him to inform the queen in the palace that they would not go back at noon.

After the guards were ordered to leave, Chen Shao took a lot of pictures of the surrounding environment of the school. It looks pretty good, this is Chen Shao's first feeling, it has just snowed, and the air is okay. There is no sense of hustle and bustle in later generations, nor the exhaust fumes of those countless cars in later generations.

For months, Chen Shaodu had not had time to pay attention to the face of Hanjing, and today was the first time he had observed the capital of the empire so carefully.

Chen Shao walked back slowly, and when he came to the gate of the school, he saw the lame middle-aged man sweeping the snow there.

Walking in front of the middle-aged man, Chen Shao took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took out one and handed it to the middle-aged man.

Lei Ying was stunned for a moment when she saw the cigarette handed to her, but quickly reflected, stopped the movement in her hand, did not pick up the cigarette, and said, "How embarrassing is this." ”

"It's such a cold day to watch the door here, a cigarette is nothing." Chen Shaodao.

Lei Ying nodded and said, "Thank you!" Then he took the cigarette in Chen Shao's hand and said, "This descendant, why did you come out alone?" What about your daughter? ”

"I came out to do some errands, and my daughter is still staying with the teacher inside."

Chen Shao also took out a cigarette, put it in his mouth, and took out a lighter to light it. immediately handed the lighter to Lei Ying, who took it and lit it for himself.

Lei Ying took a puff and said, "Good smoke, what do you do in the next life, it looks very unusual!" ”

"I work in the company, and this cigarette was given by someone, and I don't know if it's good or bad." Chen Shao also took a puff, Chen Shao is dispensable for such a thing as cigarettes, sometimes he smokes a few, and he usually doesn't think about it. It's just habitual to carry a bag on your body. This cigarette is specially supplied, and Chen Shao is not an old smoker, and he can't feel good or bad.

"I heard that the accent of Housheng is southerner! I'm really embarrassed, I've been called after the next generation, my surname is Lei, I don't know the surname of the next generation. Lei Ying said.

"Brother Lei has good ears, I am indeed a southerner, surnamed Chen, and I have not been in Hanjing for long." Chen Shaodao.

"Since Brother Chen calls me Brother Lei, I am also a few years older, will it be too much to call Brother Chen..." Seeing Chen Shao such an extraordinary person, calling himself a gatekeeper as the eldest brother, Lei Ying admired Chen Shao's bearing a little in his heart. However, he is not a grinder, and he also accepted this title, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Chen Shao.

"You can call it whatever you want Brother Lei, call these things as you like, everyone is fine."

"When I was a soldier before, I heard that southerners are not as bold as northerners, and it seems that my words do not match the truth. Brother Chen is bold enough, and he can be called a brother and sister to a flat-headed person like me, and my brother admires him. Lei Ying said.

"Oh, Brother Lei used to be a soldier?" As a descendant, Chen Shao has never paid attention to these things, and when he comes to the top of power, he will not care about these things. This is not to say that Chen Shao is too casual, and Chen Shao doesn't like these things very much, although he has been here for more than ten years, but some things, Chen Shao does not plan to change, there is no way to adapt to the times, and those who do not need to adapt to the times can not change if they do not change. If there are too many rules, it will shorten the distance between people. What's more, Chen Shao is also a private visit to Weifu today, and he won't care about these things.

"Yes! I was in the Northern Expeditionary Army for a few years, and I also participated in the overthrow of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, but this leg made me have to say goodbye to the army, but fortunately I have this job to support myself. Lei Ying touched his lame leg and said with some regret: "In the past, some old subordinates joined the emperor's ** team, but now it's a pity that I can't make any more efforts for the empire." ”

"Brother Lei doesn't need to be discouraged, there are times in life that you have to have, and you don't have to force it in life all the time. There are some things that cannot be forced, as long as you can care about the national defense construction of the empire, it is almost the same whether you are in the army or not. Chen Shao comforted.

"Many of my old comrades-in-arms, alas!" Lei Ying was a little embarrassed, and after halfway through the words, she sighed and looked a little lonely.

"Why didn't Brother Lei speak?" Chen Shao asked with some confusion.

"I didn't plan to say anything about this incident, and many of my disabled old comrades-in-arms are still without food and clothing. After all, our injuries came from the civil war, and we were embarrassed to seek help from the Empire, but many of them had to pick up the rags to get by. Alas! If His Majesty the Emperor had been unified a few years earlier, perhaps we would have had the opportunity to fight with the foreigners. Lei Ying shook his head and said, perhaps seeing that Chen Shao did not look down on himself because of his identity, Lei Ying's words today were a little too much.

"It's not your fault that you fought the civil war, it's the warlords, the soldiers are innocent. I believe that after His Majesty the Emperor of the Empire knows about your situation, he will definitely have relevant policies down. Seeing Lei Ying's expression, Chen Shao thought for a while and said. Chen Shao didn't pay attention to these problems before, but today Lei Ying's words attracted Chen Shao's attention. As Chen Shao said, the main culpability is not on the soldiers, and even if they cannot be compensated directly financially, it is still okay to give them some preferential policies in other aspects.

Chen Shao was also a little emotional, originally saw Lei Ying dragging a lame leg alone to clear the snow, and wanted to chat with him on a whim, but he didn't expect to find this problem. This is something that Chen Shao did not expect.

"Thank you Brother Chen for your understanding, in fact, the empire has not pursued it, and we are already very satisfied." Chen Shao's words made Lei Ying very useful.

Then the two chatted a few more words, and Chen Shao planned to go in, saving Chen Yun from waiting for a long time. Before leaving, Chen Shao gave Lei Ying the pack of cigarettes and lighters. Lei Ying was reluctant all along, but at Chen Shao's insistence, he finally accepted it.

Just when Liu Feiya asked what Chen Yun's mother's name was, Chen Shao happened to walk in, and Chen Yun, who was about to answer this question, also closed his mouth. By this time, she had almost eaten her noodles.

"You're back." When Liu Feiya said these words, she felt that her words were a little ambiguous, just like a greeting from a wife when she saw her husband when he returned from a busy job.

Chen Shao was also a little stunned when he heard these words, every time he returned home, Xie Yuxin's first sentence was this. Now hearing this sentence from another woman's mouth, Chen Shao's heart also had some subtle changes. couldn't help but look at Liu Feiya twice.

Liu Feiya, who was already a little embarrassed, saw Chen Shao paying attention to herself, and the flush climbed up her cheeks again.

"Yes, Yun'er didn't cause you trouble, did she!" Seeing that Liu Feiya was a little embarrassed, Chen Shao also felt that he was a little Meng Lang. He said something to ease the atmosphere.

"I didn't get into trouble, I just kept chatting with the teacher, and we talked until ......" Chen Yun heard Chen Shao say this, and hurriedly spoke.

"We were just talking about some study, and we didn't talk long before you came back." However, before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Liu Feiya, Liu Feiya was also afraid that Chen Yun would say the questions she asked Chen Yun before, she was already a little embarrassed, if those questions were known by Chen Shao, especially the question of taking a concubine, then it is estimated that she would want to find a hole to get into.
