Chapter 126
This table is full of guests, and the table and disc action. Today's banquet has added a new round of long-term conversation to Yishan Village, and who can surpass Pingping after today's banquet.
The banquet dispersed, leaving the two chiefs and one public in Yishan Village to discuss. In a moment, Shen Xinran and the three brothers of the Shen family walked forward and backward.
"That's the case, I want to build a school in the village, and the village will give up the land, and my Shen family will fund the construction and be responsible for the follow-up work." This was touched by the longing in their eyes in Shen Ziyang's room at noon. The older generation couldn't read and write, and now she wants to do what she can for the younger generation in Yishan Village.
The three of them looked excited, and finally the village chief said, "Yes, you can say as much as you want." ”
Everything is inferior, but reading is high!
If there is a school in the village, do not seek to be high, but to be able to read and write.
"Village chief, don't get excited, listen to me first."
"yes, for the rest of my life." Uncle Shen San was also very excited, but unlike the village chief's duties, he really realized the importance of reading, like his son. "Xiao Ran has an idea, you say it slowly."
"Let's not rush, drink saliva." The patriarch poured a glass of water for Shen Xinran.
"I can't make the patriarch." Shen Xinran dared to accept this glass of water.
"Make it." The patriarch sighed, "There are few people in our village who study, and they suffer this loss outside." was disgusted and beaten by outsiders, so he had to return to his hometown. You also see that the people in our village are all good, not that they are unwilling to go out to fight, but they are afraid of losses. ”
Education was still a top priority in that era.
"I understand. Therefore, my idea is that the children of the village and the workshop will be forced to undergo compulsory education for three years. ”
"What is compulsory education?" Third Uncle Shen hurriedly interrupted.
"That is, you can study for free for three years, and you only need to pay a certain amount of study in the fourth year."
"Can a woman go on too?"
"Both men and women, every individual has the right to pursue knowledge, and as a family, we can't strip it."
"Then our Yishan Village is not the first where everyone can go to school."
Under San's warm gaze, Shen Xinran nodded affirmatively.
"I, I'll give it to you tomorrow, and I'll go back now." The village chief couldn't hide his chokeness, and before everyone could react, he went back, he was afraid that he couldn't help it and would lose face in front of the juniors.
"I'm going to help too." The patriarch also hurried out, and he was afraid that he would lose face in front of the juniors.
"These two, alas, no matter what, our old Shen family is already proud of you, and I will go back first." Uncle Shen San finally ended in a hurry. He is also afraid of losing face in front of his juniors.
"Dad, third uncle and fourth uncle, you won't blame me for cutting first and then playing."
"No, that's a good thing." Shen Youfu will only agree no matter what Shen Xinran chooses.
"Third Uncle is going to visit some old friends tomorrow." After Shen Youshou finished speaking, he took a sip of tea and suppressed his shock. He didn't expect Shen Xinran to be so caring.
"Thank you, Third Uncle." Shen Xinran was pleasantly surprised.
"I'm very tired today, you tell me how big it is, I'll go to the village chief tomorrow to negotiate." Shen Youlu pretended to be calm. This niece of his is really touching and incredible. This broad-minded, who is not convinced.
"About a thousand square meters. I'll take care of the drawings. Shen Xinran couldn't hide the touch in her heart.
, this is the family, always unconditionally supporting her, regardless of whether there is interest or not.
With this family, what do you want to be born again. What a deal!
Due to the happy event of the owner, three days and two days of paid vacation are scheduled. The last crop of corn of the year, the last crop of peppers after the harvest, and cotton, strive to harvest well in the next four days. It's been a good year.
Yesterday's banquet is still vivid, although it was struck by the big bell of the ancestral hall early this morning, this is an emergency gathering. In less than half a moment, the assembly was completed.
The village chief held a gong in his hand and sounded "Don't make any noise, just take everyone's time, know that everyone is busy." Seeing that everyone had stopped, the village chief spoke.
"I think everyone feels the same way, especially now that they understand the importance of reading and writing. Now there is an opportunity, the Shen family will run a school in our village, and our village will only go out of the land, and the other Shen families will be responsible. ”
Before the village chief finished speaking, there was already a lot of discussion, and of course everyone agreed.
"No problem, village chief, you said that place should be allocated to the Shen family."
"Agreed."
"My skinny boy is finally in charge."
"In the future, my family will also be able to read."
"The Shen family gives money, I have a lot of strength, and I will work hard after work." One person is grateful to the Shen family for all kinds of feedback for Yishan Village, and the silver is not as much as him, but he has the strength.
"Count me in."
"And me."
“……”
The gong sounded, "Everyone listen to me quietly." The village chief poked the gong and waited for everyone to be quiet before he spoke, "The Shen family is kind-hearted, as long as it is the children of the villagers and formal employees of the workshop in Yishan Village, regardless of boys and girls, these are their own children, and they must go to school for three years, and the school is completely free." ”
"Girls can too, that's right."
"What do girls do when they study, boys can get fame by studying."
"What's wrong with the girl, my daughter is the first to go, the daughter is no worse than the man, look at the Shen family."
"yes, it's still patriarchal now, it's patriarchal now."
"What's heavier and lighter, this is all our meat, there were no conditions before, and I owe a little bit to the child, but now I have my son and daughter in my hands."
"That's right, my daughter must go to school, don't say it's free, she wants to learn everything, and now it's not unconditional."
"Yes, yes."
“……”
"Alright, everyone be quiet." As soon as the gong sounded, everyone was quiet, "Since everyone agreed, it was decided." When the school is built, we have to learn, this is the blessing of being born in our mountain village, we parents can't lose the blessing of our children, this is also the blessing given by the Shen family. Today's children are much more blessed than us, and their future can be expected in the future, so let's be tired and hard, so that the children don't take the old road of our illiteracy. "The village chief is very contagious, and he also said that they have a heart.
There is a good saying, who let the hungry suffer. They are not afraid of hardship or tiredness, but they are afraid of suffering their wives and children.
Even if you don't have the life of the champion, it is good to be a literate farmer facing the loess with your back to the sky.
"This is the first good thing, and the second is to repair the road in our village and build a road. Why not make a fortune. "There is no road, and even if there is a treasure, it is difficult to get lucky. With the road, wealth and wealth will come naturally.
"The third thing is for me, this two-story small building of the Shen family must have been seen by everyone, I accepted Shen Zhichao and the money, the invitation of the contractor, if you want to build, come to my house to sign up, unified design, unified contractor, unified price. Well, don't waste your precious time, if you have different opinions on the above three things, you can mention them, if not, they will disperse, and there is still work waiting in the field. ”
"Then the patriarch, I will go up to you in the evening."
"I'll go with you."
"Patriarch, I'm free now, go back with you."
"Get out of the calf, get busy." The patriarch also went back happily. Everyone was happy, just waiting for tonight, and the thought of living in a miniature version of the Shen family's small building made everyone even more happy. Even today's work is extraordinarily energetic.
Not far away, there was a man watching.
