Chapter 218: Educating people first cultivates oneself

Jiang Yan herself didn't like to kneel for people, and she was most afraid of others kneeling for her, so she immediately beckoned Jiang Wen and Wang Jinhua and helped the village chief and his party on the ground up.

"Village chief, Li Zheng, I know the intentions of the two of you, if there is anything that can help the village in the future, I will do my best, you don't have to do this, I am also a member of the Lin family, and I am only doing my best."

"The village can develop so far, without the efforts of your two elders, if it weren't for you, the village would not be united, whether it is chili pepper or late rice, it is the result of everyone's joint efforts!"

The two looked at Jiang Yan with satisfaction, and were even more moved by her words, and the village chief even spoke directly: "If there is anything going on in your family in the future, just tell us, as long as the village can help, you will do your best!" ”

Jiang Yan said with a smile: "I know the village chief, but there is something to arrange as soon as possible, the private school in the village will be opened in a few days, and there are many children in the village who want to study, I asked Mr. Qiao to count the number of people, about 100 people." ”

Qiao Le had counted the number of people who wanted to study before, there were thousands of people in Linjia Village, except for those who were more open-minded, almost all children from the age of ten would not go to school every day, and children over ten years old were already half adults in the farm, and the villagers would stay at home to help work.

It's just that there are nearly 100 children in the enlightenment period, Jiang Wen has to take the college exam next year, he still has to take care of his studies, and Qiao Le can't be busy alone.

"Village chief, Li Zheng, the two of you often go back and forth between the town and the county, and you know a lot of people, you can find out if there is a suitable gentleman, the children are still in the enlightenment stage, even if there is no show, you can find a few children."

When building a private school, Jiang Yan thought of this problem, so she built three separate courtyard houses not far from the private school, all of which were blue bricks and white tiles, three bedrooms and a hall, with a stove room and a courtyard, although it was not as good as Jiang Yan's own building, but in the village, it was already the most luxurious suite.

"Mr. is invited, they can be placed in the teacher's house in the backyard, as long as they teach in Linjia Village, they will all be fed and lived, and the allotted houses are calculated according to the set, so that if they have wives and children, they can also take them over."

Li Zheng said: "Xiao Jiang is right, since there is a private school, naturally we can't treat the gentlemen badly in this regard, there is still a lot of money in the public account in the village, please have two more gentlemen can still afford it." ”

The village built a private school and repaired the road scattered and calculated that the village had two hundred taels, and now the remaining silver money in the public account was distributed by Jiang Yan to the village, which was enough to pay the monthly money to Mr.

Even if a child has more than a dozen copper plates a month, so many people, it adds up to a lot, and now every household in the village has surplus food, which is really not good, and the food must be enough.

Jiang Wen pursed his lips and said, "Little aunt, in fact, I can also teach, and there is still more than half a year to take the test in my hospital." ”

Jiang Yan shook her head: "I have no objection to you teaching in the village, but if you have more children, you will spend more energy, and you will educate yourself first, since you want to take the road of the imperial examination, then study hard, you are teaching these children now in the hope that they will be literate and hyphenated, and succeed in learning, so that although you will have a better life than ordinary people if you don't go to the examination to become an official, but you will improve the lives of more people by adding official robes as soon as possible." ”

Jiang Wen nodded, it was because he was short-sighted and didn't think long enough.

"That's right! You kid has a future, we are waiting for you to be admitted to Xiucai, then to raise people, and finally to be an official master! Although you are not from our village, as long as you pass the exam, our whole village will be happy for you! The village chief said with a smile.

Li Zheng also said solemnly, "Wen Han of our village is the same, I heard his grandmother say that his ranking in the academy is the first in the list, and the deans of the two academies said that he will definitely be able to pass the exam, if this is really successful, but what about the great joy of our Linjia Village!" ”

Jiang Yan smiled cooperatively, after Jiang Wen left the academy, he never went back, and during this time, Lin Wenhan seemed to have never returned to Linjia Village because the academy was strict.

After bidding farewell to the village chief, Jiang Yan went to the new house to see the progress, and Jiang Wen followed Wang Jinhua home first.

"It's not right for you to do this, after washing, you have to cut it into pieces and put on a skewer."

"Tao Bai, why don't you keep talking, if Xiao Wu eats, the dirty things on the epidermis ruin your stomach, can you afford it!"

"Got Miss Xiuhua."

According to Fang Xiuhua's request, Tao Bai scrubbed the ripe persimmons repeatedly, then carefully cut them and took out the slippery seeds inside, inserted the bamboo skewers that had been cut a long time ago, and was about to serve them to Lin Feng, when he saw a pair of big hands that were still white and tender snatching the plate.

"These two mountain persimmons are too astringent, you wash two more and then serve them to Xiao Wu." Fang Xiuhua inserted a few words and put them in her mouth, and the sweetness in her mouth made her squint with satisfaction, but her face continued to command Tao Bai impatiently.

Tao Bai frowned at her, thinking that Fang Xiuhua was a relative of the master's family, he had no choice but to hold back the dissatisfaction in his heart, and quietly re-washed two beautiful persimmons.

There are more than a dozen persimmons in this mountain, and when Lin Cong collected the mountain goods, he brought them back to Jiang Yan's family to try them, there were not many, and the master's family hadn't eaten them yet, Fang Xiuhua even ate three or four of them, and now he is still commanding Tao Bai to serve her.

For more than two months, Fang Xiuhua has been like a fish in water in the Lin family, and she is well-behaved, diligent, obedient and sensible in front of Jiang Yan and a few people on weekdays, but in private, she has taken the posture of the master of the family for the few people bought by Jiang Yan, making it more reasonable than Jiang Yan and the others.

Jiang Yan arranged for Xie Sanniang to be his right and left hand, and when Xie Sanniang was busy going to the bottom factory to follow up the production of the bottom material, she would be left alone to take care of her at home, which gave her a gap for the fox and the tiger.

"What kind of face do you throw at me, don't forget, you are a servant bought by the Lin family, and I am a relative of the Lin family, so I am still your master."

Fang Xiuhua rolled her eyes, seeing that there was no one else at home, she sat on the chair with the washed and cut fruit plate, the autumn sun was mild and not dazzling, shining warmly on her body, she crossed her legs, lazily enjoying.

Tao Bai's face was even more ugly, he was holding back the fire in his heart, but it was not easy to say it, because what Fang Xiuhua said was indeed the truth, but he was bought back by the Lin family, if he was called by the ladies and young masters, he would be a hundred willing, but by the two appearances of this person, he felt that his heart was on fire.
