Chapter 245: School Begins

Oskaia University only has a new class of students entering the school on September 1 every year, but this year is different, this year is the first enrollment of civilian schools, so the date is set for March 10.

Since it took only three months for Flandy to start proposing, the court meeting to discuss again, and then build the campus, the opening of the school was relatively hasty.

Two days after Cathy arrived at Pedy's house, the commoners of the Manchurian capital learned that their esteemed Emperor had built a school so that the children of the commoners could also enjoy education.

As a result, the entire imperial capital was a sensation.

With a total population of about 300,000, the imperial capital is the largest city in the continent of Oskaia, and there are about 200,000 commoners excluding noble families and branches.

Of the 200,000 people, more than 20,000 are of primary school age.

In addition to the concerns of many civilian families, more than 12,000 students were enrolled in this enrollment.

Of course, the grandeur of this opening ceremony cannot be compared with the official opening of Oskaia University on September 1, but even so, Gülen personally presided over the opening ceremony of this first civilian school.

......

Cathy's father, Andrew, had a rare new outfit, and of course, he gave his daughter a new outfit.

Early that morning, he took his daughter to charter a carriage and rushed to the south gate of the imperial capital to meet Peidi's family.

During the blizzard season, Andrew and his daughter stayed up in front of Pedi's house for more than a month, and if it weren't for Pedi's kind-hearted aunt, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to enter the shelter at all.

So he has always regarded the Peidi family as his savior, and he has been thinking about how to repay.

Later, when he was in the shelter, he was recruited into a garbage recycling factory, and although the work was hard, tiring, and smelly, he was finally able to eat a full bowl of rice.

And his salary was two silver coins in the first month, and in the second month, it rose to five!

Even before his crucifixion, he had never received such a high salary.

Ever since he stabilized from the factory, he has been worrying about his daughter's future, which is his life and his only relative, and he certainly hopes that his daughter can have a happy future.

But he is just a stinky worker, even if he can earn a few more silver, what way out does his daughter have.

It wasn't until the vice-president said that His Majesty the Emperor was building a school where all the sons and daughters of commoners could study, that he made up his mind that his daughter should study.

His life is over, but his daughter's life has just begun, and the vice president also revealed a news that as long as he studies well in school and can contribute to the empire in the future, then commoners will be able to become nobles one day!

Although her daughter Cathy is a woman and cannot become a nobleman, who knows who among her classmates can become a nobleman.

This is a bright road for the common people!

Later, his daughter secretly ran to tell Pedi's family, and he acquiesced, he had a good impression of little Pedi, if his daughter had such a boy to protect her at school, she should not be bullied.

After riding in a horse-drawn carriage and joining Pedi's family, the two carriages drove one after the other to Oskaia University.

Tens of thousands of students, including parents and students, poured into Oskaia University, but there was no congestion, as there were countless armed soldiers on both sides of the road to maintain order.

Due to the long distance, the Pedi family and Cathy's family arrived late, and they followed the flow of people until they came to a large playground.

The playground was crowded with students and parents, and many of the children were lifted above their heads by their fathers to look out at a high platform in front of them.

"Abba, Abba, you lift me up too!" Seeing that others were holding up by Abba, Pei Di also begged his own Abba to lift himself up to watch the excitement.

"Good!" Barlow himself is physically strong, and it is not a problem to lift his own son.

Cathy was a girl, and she was too embarrassed to let her Abba lift herself.

The crowd was noisy, and I didn't know who was talking, in short, I felt that I couldn't hear anything clearly, and I had to shout loudly even when I was talking to the relatives next to me.

The time had gradually come to noon, and suddenly a team of guards ran up on the high platform, one on both sides, and gave way to the middle.

"Toot, beet, toot!" Three horns sounded, and a young man dressed in an extremely grand emperor's dress walked up from the high platform.

The noisy crowd suddenly fell silent, and then there was a louder commotion.

"Oh my God, it's His Majesty the Emperor!"

"Where is it, where is His Majesty the Emperor here?"

"Really, I didn't lie to you, His Majesty the Emperor is really young!"

"Hey, His Majesty the Emperor is quite handsome, I heard that he hasn't married the queen yet, right?"

"Abba, Abba, I'm going to see it too, lift me up!"

Pedi was riding on Barlow's neck, much taller than the person next to him, but he was so far away that he could only see a vague figure and couldn't see his face clearly.

"Abba, it's His Majesty the Emperor, His Majesty the Emperor is out!" Pei Di shouted excitedly.

Barlow stood on tiptoe and looked hard ahead.

Cathy was anxious next to her, she also wanted to see His Majesty the Emperor, but she was too short to see the back of the person in front of her, and she was too embarrassed to let Abba lift her, so she could only stomp her feet in the crowd.

"Toot! toot!" Three more horns sounded, and His Majesty the Emperor on the high platform pressed his hands to signal everyone to be quiet.

Anyone who could see his movements immediately shut up and reminded those next to him not to make a sound.

Soon, the people in the large playground fell silent.

Pei Di looked at His Majesty the Emperor from a distance and seemed to be speaking, but he couldn't hear it too far, but every once in a while, the crowd in the big playground would let out a cheer, and many people were clapping their hands vigorously.

Whenever it was time to cheer, it was the people in front of them who started it, because they could hear what His Majesty the Emperor had to say.

The front cheered, and the people behind also cheered, and the cheers of tens of thousands of people were like the waves of the sea, wave after wave.

His Majesty the Emperor spoke for about twenty minutes, and when Pei Di's voice followed the cheers, he became hoarse, and his two little hands were red, although he did not hear a word clearly.

Then a few older people came up to the high platform and began to speak, but the effect was far from that of His Majesty the Emperor, except for sporadic applause, people were standing bored in the big playground.

After about an hour, the crowd in front of me began to surge. The people in the back followed the people in front of them, and the Pedi family and Cathy didn't know where they were going, but they also walked along.

The crowd walked along an avenue for about half an hour or so, when a row of towering buildings suddenly appeared in front of them.

These buildings are ten full floors, and each building looks very new and tidy, and the windows are all glass inlays, which makes these civilians dumbfounded.

Although glass is not expensive, there are still a few people who can install glass in their homes, and only those who are slightly more affluent will install glass.

There were fewer and fewer people in front of them, because there were many uniformly dressed people who began to divide the crowd, and every time they passed a building, there were a large number of fewer people.

It wasn't until the two families reached the fourth building that a young woman dressed in a simple red dress and wearing a small white sign on her chest called Cathy and her daughter over.

Although they were not asked to go over, the two families came together, and Pedi, Barlow, and Mara went with them.

"Come with the girls, keep walking with the boys, don't mess around, stay safe!" shouted the young woman, who would be dragged away if she saw anyone with a girl.

"Boy, go on, oh, this is supposed to be the place to stay!" Barlow realized that this was the student's dormitory.

So the two families separated, and the Peidi family moved on.

The two dormitory buildings were not far away, it was just a matter of walking a few more steps, and after a few minutes, I saw a young man in front of me who was dressed almost the same as the young woman just now, but in blue clothes, was also greeting.
