Chapter 107: The Initial Idea of Running a School of Righteousness

Yao Shan went out and came back not long after. There were two more rickety men on the bullock cart. One is Jiang Erbo, and the other is Li Qin. Yao Shan met Jiang Erbo, who was helping Li Qin to move forward with difficulty, and even drove them back to Jiangfu. Mrs. Li> was so anxious that she couldn't do it, looking at Li Qin's appearance, she hadn't completely sobered up, and immediately thought distressedly: How much wine do you have to drink to get drunk like this? I couldn't help but be a little dissatisfied with Jiang Erbo in my heart, and thought: Qin'er has a young heart, and he doesn't know self-control when he is happy, you are an elder anyway, but you don't pull a little.

Jiang Erbo jumped down from the ox cart and looked at Mrs. Li's > worried face, and his heart was a little worried. Hurriedly explained: "Mrs. Li" >, the old man had been taking care of Gongzi Li's "> before, so he didn't drink too much. However, because there were more guests to toast, the old man left for a while, and then when he went back, Li Gongzi "> had been pulled to the table by a group of affectionate relatives and friends, and he insisted on raising the master's wine. Li Gongzi's "> somehow, without moderation, does not refuse to come, and the old man can't pull it. A day of great joy. The old man couldn't stop the other guests, so much so that he got drunk like this when he got drunk......"

Mrs. Li> smiled bitterly, whose son knows that this Qin'er is a person who is crazy. On weekdays, I was suppressed too much by my parents at home, and it was rare to be so warmly entertained and respected by others outside, so I was naturally presumptuous. At that moment, Second Uncle Chongjiang smiled reluctantly: "It's okay, there is Second Uncle Lao Jiang!" ”

After speaking, he took two steps forward, and helped Li Qin, who was smoky, back to the room with Yao Shan. Seeing this, Xiaoxiao hurriedly came over to help, while instructing the man: "Go and make some sobering tea!" ”。 The mustache answered and hurried away.

Jiang Mansion was tossed by Li Qin for a while, but Jiang Zhixuan and Qin Shuang were not idle. Qin Shuang led the horse and walked side by side with Jiang Zhixuan. As we walked, we chatted about some very serious and sensitive issues.

"Brother Jiang, you and I are brothers, since the first time we met, my brother has admired your courage very much. A class of scholars, in the face of your brother and the two big and three rough men around you, you dare to rush up without your life. Just because of this, my brother admires you very much. Therefore, there are some things that my brother has to remind you! ”

Jiang Zhixuan was inexplicably surprised by what he said, and thought: When did you become so divine, when did you open your mouth and say:

"Brother Qin has always taken care of his younger brother, and the younger brother remembers it in his heart. Please also ask Brother Qin to make it clear, what's the matter? ”

Qin Shuang pondered the wording for a while, and then replied solemnly:

"Brother. Brother, as the commander of His Majesty's personal bodyguard, I know more things than you. Therefore, I would like to give you a piece of advice! You and I, as courtiers, should regard Your Majesty as heaven in our hearts at any time! The rest of the people, don't get too close! ”

Jiang Zhixuan is even more confused, who am I getting too close to now? Except for you, Brother Qin, and the head of the palace, there are only His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Thinking like this, he asked puzzledly:

"What does Brother Qin mean by this? Little brother doesn't know! ”

Qin Shuang glanced at him, hesitated, and didn't say anything else after all. Just repeated: "Brother, you just have to remember that at all times, you must take Your Majesty as the sky. Just keep this in mind, and no matter what happens in the future, you will be safe! ”

Jiang Zhixuan is not a fool, chewing his words a little and reminiscing about it, he immediately understood: Your Majesty and the queen Chitose now have three sons and six daughters, in addition to the crown prince Li Chengqian, there is also Li Tai, the king of Wei. King Li Zhi of Jin is the two princes. Among them, Li Tainai, the king of Wei, is the younger brother of Li Chengqian, and he is the same age as the crown prince. And Li Zhi, the king of Jin, was still young and did not need to worry.

What is Qin Shuang worried about? Or rather, what is Your Majesty's concern? That's the battle of the princes. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was suffering from a congenital foot disease, and His Majesty doted on the King of Wei, and even allowed him to recruit talents in the palace and cultivate his own connections and henchmen as he did back then. Jiang Zhixuan was in the East Palace, and he occasionally heard about it, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was very uneasy about this!

In this way, Qin Shuang is reminding himself not to get involved in the dispute between the princes. And he is now the companion of the prince of the East Palace, once there is really a dispute between the princes, the people of the two parties, even a groom, will be put in the right position. What's more, he is like this, a person who accompanies the prince every day!

After thinking about this, Jiang Zhixuan came back to his senses and had a plan in his heart. immediately said to Qin Shuang:

"Brother Xie Qin's golden jade good words, junior brother understands what to do!"

Qin Shuang looked at the smile on his face, and also smiled heroically: "This is very good, hurry up, Your Majesty is in a hurry, we have already delayed a day!" ”

Jiang Zhixuan was ashamed when he heard this, and with the force under his feet, his speed increased a lot. said that the day's work was delayed, but because of him and Xiaoxiao......

Xiaoxiao and her mother worked together to help Li Qin back to the room, and the mustache brought him sobering tea and poured it down. It wasn't until late afternoon that Li Qin finally woke up. As soon as he woke up, he opened his mouth to ask for water. Who knew that the water was not drunk, but Mrs. Li "> split her head and covered her face. Xiaoxiao is in the bedroom, reminiscing about the lingering moment of the couple last night. Hearing Mrs. Li's > scolding, he hurriedly ran to the guest room to comfort his mother.

Mrs. Li scolded >, and her anger subsided, so she followed her little intention and went downstairs to the main hall. While talking to Xiao, I sat and waited for dinner. Li Qin also came down from upstairs and dodged with wicker fine salt to wash in the bathroom. When passing through the main hall, he was stared at by Mrs. Li's "> again, and hurriedly went away.

Xiaoxiao smiled and patted the back of his stepmother's hand: "Mother, don't be angry, after this lesson, see if he dares to get drunk in the future!" Giggle......"

Mrs. Li" > also nodded when she heard this, no longer said Li Qin, and turned to look at Xiao Xiaodao:

"Girl, my mother has been living with you for more than ten days. Your father is at home alone, and he is very worried about his mother, so tomorrow he wants to take Qin'er back to Longzhou. ”

Xiao Xiao heard the words, although he was reluctant, but he also knew. It is indeed inappropriate to let the father-in-law, an official and an old man, stay alone in the empty room for more than ten days. Nodding in understanding at the moment:

"My daughter understands, then let's rest early tonight. Early tomorrow morning, her daughter asked Yao Shan to go to the county seat to hire a carriage to send her mother and brother Qin back to Longzhou. ”

"Girl, for the sake of Mother and Qin'er, you are the only one left in the family, you have to be stronger!"

Xiaoxiao smiled when she heard this: "Mother, relax, my daughter can save it!" ”

In fact, Xiaoxiao is almost used to this kind of separation and integration, but she is really calm. Moreover. She still has new things to worry about, and her family is not without the slightest popularity, at least she is accompanied by Wei'er and the Yao brothers. Seven days later, Jiang Yun and Qing'er completed their return ceremony and returned to work on the farm, and she was about to start implementing her new plan.

Now that everything on the farm is on track, by mid-November, it's time for the harvest to be harvested. So far, the output of chicken farms and pig farms can only barely maintain the supply of the three major restaurants in the county. It will take at least three or four months for the newly added seedlings to grow. Only the supply of fishing grounds exceeds demand, so after the fishery is harvested, I am afraid that some temporary buyers will have to be contacted.

The work on the farm is handled by Jiang Yun and Qing'er, and she rarely asks about it. Now the small focus is to enclose the ten hectares of land given by the emperor into the scope of the farm as soon as possible. Some time ago, because of Qing'er's marriage, it was temporarily shelved at this time. Now that the marriage is over, the husband has returned to the palace. Doing nothing on your own, just getting these things done.

After the mother and brother Qin left tomorrow, they went to the forest and the mountains behind the farm to take a look. Anyway, Li Shimin's reward is to allow himself to expand at will, that is, around the farm, he can occupy that piece at will if he sees it, and he still has considerable autonomy.

In addition, now in this Huayin County, the reputation of the female Bodhisattva is very loud. When the farm faced a crisis, it was also thanks to the help of the surrounding neighbors. Therefore, Xiaoxiao has always wanted to do something to repay these simple and enthusiastic neighbors. When I think about it, I can't think of a good way. Repair bridges and repair roads, when my father-in-law was appointed as the commander of Huayin County, he paid great attention to people's livelihood, and the roads and bridges between villages and towns were rarely damaged; Let's set up a tent to give porridge, during this Zhenguan period, the people are rich and rich, and the homeless people are almost extinct. It is estimated that it is also difficult to build a porridge shed.

In the end, after her husband returned to his hometown, Xiaoxiao was inspired by him and thought of a method that does not cost much, but can really benefit the neighbors: running a righteous school!

Xiaoxiao has learned that in this era, going to school is an extremely expensive luxury. It would be good for ordinary peasant children to be able to write their own names after finishing private school, because they could not afford the high fees of official school. Most of those who can really afford to go to official schools and participate in scientific examinations are the children of official eunuchs or the sons and nephews of the landlord class. It is the husband Jun Zhixuan, when he entered the school and was enlightened, his father-in-law was also the respect of the government, if it were not for this, I am afraid that the husband would be the same as Jiang Yun and Jiang Feng at this time, he was an honest farmer!

After having the idea of running a righteous school, Xiaoxiao once planned carefully. The farm now makes a profit of about 400 to 500 taels a month. If the school is run and 80 students are accepted, two teachers are invited to count. The monthly living expenses of the students and the students are only fifty or sixty taels at most, which is completely affordable. As for the content of the teaching, in addition to the traditional content of this era, Xiaoxiao also plans to select students with potential interest and personally teach them mathematics, geometry and other arithmetic subjects.

The reason why there is such an idea is because from the establishment of the farm to the present, all the account books made by Qing'er are all counted in capitalized Chinese, and it is difficult to calculate clearly every time I look at the small head. Therefore, she wanted to introduce Arabic numerals, which were not available in this era, as well as the advanced calculation and statistical methods of later generations, to teach these enlightened children. At this time, she never imagined that this method would trigger a mathematical ** in the last years of Zhenguan, which greatly improved the efficiency of all walks of life!

As for the location of Yixue, Xiaoxiao planned to build it on the farm. Yixue on this scale doesn't take up much space at all. And the scale of the farm, for Xiaoxiao, who comes from modern times, is indeed a bit outrageous. Think about it, fourteen hectares of land, converted to the square calculation known to later generations, that is nearly one million square meters.

Mrs. Li's > saw that her daughter was thinking about the problem, and asked again and again:

"Girl, what are you thinking about? So distracted? ”。

Xiaoxiao came back to her senses from her thoughts and smiled lightly at her mother:

"Mother, my daughter is thinking about doing righteous school!"

"Running a school?" Mrs. Li," > asked in amazement, "Why did you suddenly have such an idea?" ”

"Mother, now that Zhixuan is far away in Beijing, the farm has gradually stepped onto the right track. If my daughter doesn't find something to do, won't her daily life be boring? Wu Siyuan plotted to seize the farm before, thanks to the protection of the villagers and neighbors, and his daughter was very grateful. In addition, this time, the husband returned to his hometown from the palace, and his honor was boundless. Therefore, the daughter moved her mind to set up a righteous school, so that the children of these neighbors can go to school for free, so that they can also have the opportunity to participate in the scientific examination and glorify their ancestors! ”

Mrs. Li," > muttered for a while when she heard this, and then reminded with some concern:

"Girl, this righteous school is a great thing to do good and accumulate virtue, if your father knew about it, he would definitely appreciate it. However, this righteous school will cost a lot of money, with the current situation of you and Zhixuan, can you afford it? ”

Xiaoxiao was about to answer, but the girl had already come over with food to greet the mother and daughter for dinner. Xiaoxiaopi invited her mother to the table first, and while eating during the banquet, she explained:

"My mother doesn't know yet, but now the farm is very profitable. The net profit alone can reach about 400 per month, which is enough to support the monthly expenditure of only 50 or 60 taels! ”

Mrs. Li> was slightly surprised: "Is there such a high profit so quickly?" ”

Xiaoxiao nodded a little proudly, and replied with a smile: "Hehe, my mother didn't expect it, right?" Fewer words"

Mrs. Li" > also laughed heartily: "My mother really never thought that your farm would be so profitable so quickly!" In this way, you have no problem running a righteous school. It's just that you have a good choice for the teaching of righteousness? ”

Xiaoxiao shook her head: "Hehe, my mother is more eager than my daughter, and now even the school of Yixue has not been built, where can I consider teaching so quickly!" ”

Mrs. Li" > said with a smile: "I'm anxious for my mother, hehe, girl, if there is no suitable teaching at that time, let your father find a way to find one or two for you." Although it is a righteous study, it can't be mistaken for other people's children, and it is necessary to choose two teachers who are both virtuous and artistic! ”

Xiao Xiao's head agreed: "My daughter also has this intention, and by the end of next month at the latest, my daughter will be able to build the school." At that time, I will ask my father to help me find two good teachers for my daughter! ”

Li Qin, who made a mistake and kept his head bored and didn't dare to say anything, finally couldn't help but interject at this time: "Mother, little miss" >, this teaching can be regarded as ...... Am I one? ”

Mrs. Li" > and Xiaoxiao glanced at him, and replied in unison: "Count you in, do you teach others to get drunk......?"
