Thinking about the life of entering the academy, except for ten days and one rest day, he had to go out early and return late, after Du Jinning came out of the teahouse, he went directly to Cui Mingshi and asked him to meet his friend Yao Shuqi, who was the shopkeeper. She had a very happy conversation with Yao Shuqi, and immediately signed the deed, and Du Jinning handed over the bookstore to Yao Shuqi Zhang Luo and went home by himself.

The second day was the opening day of the academy, and early in the morning, Chen made breakfast for Du Jinning, watched her pack her things, and advised: "If someone bullies you in the academy, you go to the mountain chief." ”

"Who's going to bully me?" Du Jinning said with a smile, "I have the support of the mountain chief, and I am protected by Jiaze and Qi Muyuan, who dares to bully me?" ”

"Du Jinning, Brother Ning." There was a shout outside the courtyard gate, and it sounded like Zhang Hongwen.

"It's Brother Zhang, he is in the same class as me and asked me to go to school together." Du Jinning hugged the cloth bag in his hand and said to Chen: "I'm leaving." And he ran out.

ran outside the door, and sure enough, I saw Zhang Hongwen standing there. His face was crimson and slightly panting, apparently coming after getting off the mule cart in the academy.

"Why are you here?" Du Jinning asked with some surprise.

"I thought about your first day of school, and I didn't recognize the school, so I came and asked you to come with me." Zhang Hongwen waved his hand, "Let's go, it's late." ”

Du Jinning thought that today was the first day of school, so he got up early to prepare; Zhang Hongwen also came much earlier than usual. The two of them entered the academy, and when they walked to the class B teaching house, there were only three or four people inside.

Because of the last competition, Du Jinning is more familiar with the people in Class A; The teaching house of Class B has never been there, except for Zhang Hongwen, she doesn't know any people inside.

She glanced around the teaching house and asked Zhang Hongwen, "Is this seat fixed?" ”

She has a good memory, and she clearly remembers that Zhang Hongwen once told her that there are 17 people in Class A, 28 people in Class B, 35 people in Class C, and 56 people in Class D. These numbers are not set in stone, and will be promoted based on the results of the exams at the end of each month, plus the assessment of the gentlemen.

And the time of promotion is basically spring or autumn. Because there are spring and autumn festivals, the time for the children's birth test is also in February. At this time, the students of class A went to participate in the scientific examination, and if they were admitted to the school or show talents, some of them would no longer stay in the academy to study, but would go to the county school or the government school to continue their studies, so that the class A would be empty, just so that the students with good grades in class B would be on top. At this time, it is appropriate to conduct a promotion exam, and at the same time, it also has the meaning of motivating students. Class D recruits new students, and the promotion of classes C and B is also at this time.

Before Du Jinning wore it, the time of autumn had passed; It has just passed the Chinese New Year, and the number of children who have not yet started the examination has not yet begun, so whether it is Class A or Class B, unless someone drops out, the number remains the same.

And when students drop out, they have to report to the mountain chief. She had been staying there and had not heard him say that someone had dropped out of school.

In other words, the number of people in Class B is still twenty-eight.

But the number of cases in front of her was twenty-eight, and there was no one more because of her arrival.

"It's fixed." Zhang Hongwen didn't understand what Du Jinning meant by asking at first, and was about to find a desk for her to sit on, so he swept around the teaching house, only to find that there was no extra desk in the teaching room.

"This is my seat, you sit first, I'll go to Saifu and get a few cases." He pointed to the middle of the fourth row, dropped a word, and ran out.

Du Jinning saw that people came in one after another, and they all looked at her with strange eyes, and she didn't want to be there, so she had to walk to Zhang Hongwen's position and sit down.

"You...... Did you go to the wrong house? A fourteen or fifteen-year-old chubby boy walked over, sat down in the seat next to him, looked at Du Jinning and asked, "You are sitting in Zhang Hongwen's position." ”

One of the people sitting in front also turned his head and asked Du Jinning: "Yes, yes, I know all the people in Class C, but I haven't seen you." You weren't promoted from Class C, were you? ”

Du Jinning shook his head: "It's not from Class C." "Otherwise, it's hard for her to say. You can't report to these people that she is a personal disciple of the mountain chief and has been taken care of to enter this class B, right?

"Then you ......" Everyone looked at Du Jinning a few times, a little unsure of where she came from.

As the reputation of the academy became more and more famous, Guan Le and cherished the feathers, and set the threshold for entering higher and higher. Ordinary students have to go through layers of exams before entering. Regardless of how many years you have studied in a private school or in another college, you will have to take a round of exams when you come in, and your grades will determine which class you attend.

But there are exceptions, such as the descendants of several official eunuchs who subsidize the academy, they can not use the first-level examination, but enter the class after the oral assessment of the gentlemen, such as Qi Muyuan, who was assessed by Guan Lehe and entered Class A.

So when I heard Du Jinning say that he was not promoted from Class C, everyone looked at Du Jinning with such eyes.

"Brother Ren, your surname?" The chubby young man's tone was not as casual as just now, and his attitude was much more respectful.

"Don't give your surname Du."

Everyone frowned and thought about it, but after thinking about it for a long time, they didn't remember which big official in the county was surnamed Du.

The county is so big, and everyone is familiar with those eunuchs; Even if they are newly admitted to the Jinshi or the nouveau riche families who are also admitted to the Jinshi, these students are very clear, after all, there are only one or two every year or every few years.

But among these people, there is really no one surnamed Du.

At this time, Zhang Hongwen came in with a man in his thirties wearing short brown, and as soon as he entered the door, he pointed to Du Jinning and said to the man: "Jiang Zhaifu, this is Du Jinning." ”

The man arched his hand towards Du Jinning and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, Du Xiaolangjun, I haven't been notified to add tables and chairs to Class B." Xiao Langjun might as well go and ask the gentlemen to see if they forgot to confess. As long as there is an explanation, I will immediately move tables and chairs for Xiao Langjun. ”

Most of the people in the church have arrived now. Hearing this, everyone looked at Du Jinning with subtle eyes. If Du Jinning was an official eunuch, the gentleman in charge of this part of the academy would not be so contemptuous, and he didn't even prepare tables and chairs for Du Jinning.

Du Jinning raised his eyebrows lightly, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll ask." ”

She stood up and planned to go to Guan Lehe.

Before the Chinese New Year, Guan Lehe specially explained that when she arrived at the beginning of school on the 16th, she could go directly to Class B to attend classes, and he had already explained to the following gentlemen. Because today is the first day of school, Du Jinning knew that Guan Lehe was busy, so he didn't go to him to say hello, but went directly to the class.

But I didn't want to have such a thing.
