After dinner, Du Jinning took the number of rooms and halls counted by Yao Shuqi, and followed Liang Xiankuan to his furniture workshop to choose furniture.

In fact, the furniture in these years is basically made slowly by asking the carpenter to go home. However, Liang Xiankuan still made his family's furniture workshop have some finished products on display, and he still has some finished furniture drawings drawn by himself for customers to choose.

Du Jinning walked around his workshop, and flipped through the finished album, she touched her chin for a long time without squeaking.

"What's wrong? Are you not satisfied? Liang Xiankuan asked.

Du Jinning was honest: "Your furniture is strong and durable, but it comes and goes the same, and there is nothing to choose." When I go back and ponder it, I will draw a few drawings for you, and you will let the carpenter do it according to my drawings. ”

Liang Xiankuan's eyes suddenly lit up: "That's really good." ”

The sofa that Du Jinning made before was eye-catching; Now the garden she designed makes Liang Xiankuan unable to take his eyes off. He had already decided to let Du Jinning design a garden for him. Now Du Jinning said that he wanted to design furniture, which naturally made Liang Xiankuan look forward to it.

Guan Jiaze listened to it on the side, and couldn't help but reach out and knock on Du Jinning's head: "I said, how did you grow this brain?" Others have built gardens and furniture for several lifetimes, but they haven't come up with anything. You're good, it's endless. ”

"Not really. That's what my family does, and I've been doing it for a lifetime. Now look at you, and look at me, alas, how is the gap between these people so great? Liang Xiankuan nodded, feeling only more than Guan Jiaze.

"Hah, that can't be helped. Who called me wise? Du Jinning raised his head proudly, looking very stinky.

"Why do I feel the urge to punch someone?" Guan Jiaze looked at her like that, and only felt that his hands were itchy.

Xu Chengyuan couldn't help laughing.

He had had little contact before, but now he realized that this group of people was so much fun together.

When a group of people came back from the furniture workshop, they saw the housekeeper of the Guan family, the housekeeper of the Liang family, the housekeeper of the Qi family, and the housekeeper of the Du family, Yao Shuqi, sitting in the side hall for a meeting.

Everyone was speechless; "How did you get together?"

Uncle Zhong, the housekeeper of the Qi family, replied as a representative: "We have inquired about the situation of the academy, and now I want to report to the young masters. ”

"Go to the living room and say." Qi Mu walked from afar and took the lead in entering the hall.

Zhongbo came with Qi Bokun last time, and he didn't leave after Qi Bokun left, but stayed here directly. In addition to him, several other subordinates remained. At this time, as soon as everyone sat down, the people quickly came in and served tea and snacks, and then quietly withdrew, showing a good family style.

Only then did Uncle Zhong speak: "There is one professor, three instructors, and twelve gentlemen in the Fuxue. Among the gentlemen, there are five famous Confucians and scholars, some of whom are good at writing, some of whom are good at poetry, all of them; The other seven are also leaders in various fields such as piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and they all have a certain reputation in the city. They usually hold classes in the school school, and the number of classes and time are arranged according to the students who sign up and the time of other courses. At the same time, the college will have a lecture every half month, which will be held by professors and gentlemen from its own college, or invited scholars from outside to give lectures. The University also gives lectures every six months. In addition, the college will also hold debate events with students from other colleges at regular intervals. ”

Gao Cheng of the Song Dynasty once said in his "The Origin of Things": "In the Song Dynasty, Shenzong Yuanfengzhong, Xingtai learned three houses, cultivated the talents of the world with scriptures, and in the major county capitals, each of them placed a professor to teach all beings. ”

Therefore, the professor in Zhongbo's mouth is not a modern university professor, but a scholar's name. The so-called school officials are the officials who manage the education students. The principals of the government schools at all levels are not the same in terms of titles, the principals of the government schools are called professors, the state schools are called Xuezheng, and the county schools are called teachings, and the disciplines set up under them also belong to the school officials. As for the gentleman, he is a man of good character and talent, and is not a public official. So there's a lot of liquidity as well.

He took a breath and continued: "There are a total of sixty-seven students in Fuxue, all of whom have achieved the top ten in each college examination, or who have a certain reputation in poetry and excellent academics, and who have been recommended by gentlemen, as well as children who have achieved certain achievements in some aspects. Speaking of which, he added, "Every professor and gentleman of the Fuxue has a recommendation quota every three years. There are two nominations for the University of Science and Technology. ”

Hearing the last sentence, everyone looked at Du Jinning.

Now everyone knows that Zhao Liang gave Du Jinning the only two recommended places in his hand.

This made everyone admire Du Jinning and be more proud. If you can get such a fancy from the University of Political Science, it is estimated that you will not meet one in a few years. Now there is one in front of them, still sitting next to them, as their brother, which makes them proud to be with them.

Uncle Zhong also knows this. He arched his hand towards Du Jinning, and continued: "The percentage of students from Fuxue participating in the township examination is quite high, reaching more than half. And the style of the school is rigorous, and the constraints on students are extremely strict. Once a student violates the school rules, he will be expelled without any mercy. The relationship between students is both competitive and friendly, and there are not too many intrigues, quarrels and fights. ”

After saying this, he introduced the situation of Nanlu Academy again.

Nanlu Academy is also one of the best among many private academies, but compared with the government support, it is a little worse after all. The students they accept are also students who are screened out because they can't get into the school. For example, Xu Chengyuan, if it weren't for the letter of recommendation from Zhao Liang that Du Jinning got, he would only go to Nanlu Academy. Because of his high ranking in the college exam, Nanlu Academy will also accept him.

In addition to these outstanding students, Nanlu Academy will more or less accept some children of powerful people or related households. Of course, you can't get too bad grades, and you can't misbehave.

According to modern terms, Fuxue is the first public key high school, and Nanlu Academy is the second private key high school, and the difference is still relatively obvious.

"Another point I want to explain is that Mr. Qi Yuandao is a more prestigious gentleman in Fuxue, and his grandson Qi Siyu ranked fourth in the college examination, and he must be going to study in Fuxue." Zhong Bo Dao.

Qi Siyu sent a post to Qi Muyuan and Du Jinning, but was rejected by the two. He also provoked Du Jinning in the examination room many times, and he heard Yao Shuqi say all these things. So he also has to be reminded of this matter. If Du Jinning minded the existence of their ancestors and grandchildren, he might choose Nanlu Academy.
