Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan brought a batch of iron and farm tools back to the county office, and it happened that the father and daughter of Dahua were also sent to the county office.

Zhao Hanzhang liked this decisive girl very much, and asked her: "I lack an errand runner by my side, are you willing to stay by my side?" ”

Dahua immediately knelt down and kowtowed, "The slave is willing." ”

Zhao Hanzhang smiled, "It's not for you to be a slave, but to be a servant." ”

"The county government asked people to make quilts and clothes, as well as knead hay and make shoes, and there were people in the city who took care of it, but no one in the countryside could take over." Zhao Hanzhang said: "Before, the officials in the yamen were in charge, but because they were men, they were not careful enough, or they acted roughly, and the finished products they received were very bad, and you were a girl who could endure hardships, so I want you to take care of this matter." ”

Dahua didn't expect that she was going to be an official, so she was so nervous that her hands and feet were numb, and she stammered: "But, but I can't read." ”

Zhao Hanzhang said: "I know, so you have to spare half a day every day to study." ”

Zhao Hanzhang directly led Dahua to the school.

Zhao Cheng was in class, and when he saw her, he turned his eyes away from her.

Zhao Hanzhang was not annoyed, and obediently stood outside the window with Dahua, and waited for Zhao Cheng to finish a lesson before leading Dahua forward.

"Uncle has worked hard." Zhao Hanzhang personally served tea to Zhao Cheng.

"If you have nothing to do, go to the Three Treasures Palace, say, what are you doing here?"

Zhao Hanzhang smiled flatteringly, "Uncle, I misunderstood me, am I that kind of person?" ”

Zhao Cheng looked at her quietly.

Zhao Hanzhang smiled and beckoned Dahua to step forward, "I'm here to send you a student, this is called Dahua, and she became a clerk in my yamen, and she can't read, so I want to ask my uncle to teach her to recognize a few words, and then recognize some numbers." ”

Zhao Cheng frowned, "Why do you send anyone to me?" There are already a lot of officials and military positions in the academy, and even female officials are there at this time? ”

"Uncle, a sheep is a herding, and a flock of sheep is also a herding, but it makes no difference if you add one more sheep to the flock."

Zhao Cheng snorted angrily, "You say there's no difference, there's no difference?" The others have been studying for nearly two months before she came, can the class be the same as the others'? ”

Dahua lowered her head nervously, her fists clenched, and she suddenly raised her head and said, "Sir, I don't need to teach me specially, I'll catch up." ”

Zhao Cheng looked at her, Dahua swallowed his saliva and said: "I, I mean, I can start from scratch, I will learn what you teach them, and I will make up for the missing courses by myself." ”

Seeing that Zhao Cheng's face was gentle and his attitude softened, Zhao Hanzhang smiled and said, "Uncle, you can help me and take one more student." ”

Zhao Cheng asked: "There are a lot of people under your hands who can be used, I don't believe you don't know, your uncle Ming has ordered that all the children of the clan who are interested in entering the world can follow you, why did you choose an illiterate woman alone?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang said: "The brothers are naturally excellent, but what Dahua wants to do, they can't do well." ”

"In Xiajiao Village, although she is a girl, she can manage a team of people digging ditches by herself, and most of them are men, and no one dares to disobey her." She said: "Now I am short of people, so I plan to use all the women and children in the countryside." ”

"Their strength may not be as good as that of adult men, but they are not weaker than men in other work, and even above it, the division of labor, the division of labor is good, the result is twice the result with half the effort, and the big flower is the thread of my division of labor, you teach her well, and the line below will not be messy."

"Zhao Kuan, they can't do it?" Zhao Cheng said: "In terms of hardship, they have traveled abroad for many years, and they have not suffered any hardships? You don't have to worry about them not being able to suffer. ”

Zhao Hanzhang knew that this was her child who had never used the Zhao family, which made Zhao Cheng dissatisfied.

Zhao Hanzhang thought for a while and explained: "Uncle, Brother Kuan, they can endure hardships, but this thing is not something that can be done by enduring hardships, and most of the reason why I chose Dahua is because she is a woman." ”

"Brother Kuan, they are talented, they are blades, and they should be used in a better place."

"For example?"

"The most suitable location for them now is this school," Zhao Hanzhang said: "Uncle, this school is not only to teach children to read and write, but also to teach them the truth." These people will grow up to be used by me in the future, and the ideas they accept all come from the Zhao family. ”

"Now, nearly half of the officials in the yamen, the captains, chiefs, and team leaders in the army and in my subordinates, all follow the Zhao family to study, do you know what this means?" Zhao Hanzhang said with a smile: "This means that their consciousness is instilled by our Zhao family, and they will naturally favor the Zhao family, or even their uncle." ”

Zhao Cheng looked at Zhao Hanzhang dumbfounded, and was annoyed after reacting, "What do you mean by this?" What have you become of preaching and karmic solving? Teaching and educating people is to let students learn to think for themselves, not to be your shadow ......"

Zhao Hanzhang was kicked out of the school in embarrassment, but Dahua stayed.

Dahua was very in awe of this gentleman who dared to drive away the county monarch, and stood aside with his neck bent and did not dare to speak.

Zhao Cheng walked around twice in place, he finally knew why Chang Ning had to come to two big classes every ten years, and even Ji Yuan of Shang Cai would come to the school from time to time to teach, it turned out that this was the idea.

He only felt embarrassed that these two people praised Zhao Hanzhang every time they were in class, but now, what did he not understand?

Zhao Cheng turned around twice in a huff, saw the big flower, waved his hand and said, "You go down and prepare, go get the pen, ink, paper and inkstone first, and come to class tomorrow." ”

The big flower happily responded.

Zhao Cheng couldn't figure it out for a long time, and felt that this was contrary to his educational philosophy, so he ran back to Wubao angrily, found Zhao Ming and complained, "I don't know where she came from, she actually calculated it early in the morning, this is for me to train a henchman for her." ”

Zhao Ming calmly poured him a glass of wine, and poured himself a glass by the way.

Zhao Cheng couldn't help frowning when he saw that he had no sorrow or joy, "You already knew?" ”

Zhao Ming nodded.

Zhao Cheng held back his anger and asked, "Then why didn't you tell me?" ”

Zhao Ming took a sip of wine and said, "Do you know how much it costs to support a child in the clan to study?" ”

Zhao Cheng frowned, "Huh? ”

Zhao Ming said: "For example, Zhao Kuan, he is already thrifty, and he can endure hardships, and he runs outside with you every year, but he needs money for food, clothing, housing and transportation, not to mention the pen, ink, paper, inkstone and books he needs to read." ”

"An ordinary enlightenment book can sell for a hundred texts outside."

Zhao Cheng pursed his lips, "Zhao Kuan's books are all used by their father and brother, and they don't cost money. ”

"What about the anthologies I buy every year, as well as some books that I exchange? Those were also used by their father and brother? Zhao Ming said: "Every year he spends no less than 50,000 yuan on books, not to mention consumables such as pen, ink and paper, especially paper and ink, have you calculated how much you spend every year?" ”

Zhao Cheng was stunned for a moment and said, "Brother, I'm talking to you about Hanzhang Academy. ”
