Chapter 255: Ask for a Person
Recently, there have been a series of assassinations in the capital, and the officers and soldiers in the city have stepped up patrols and vigilance, and the checks at the city gates have become more severe.
Lin Shuran still came to the Lin Mansion after the morning dynasty dispersed, and not long after she arrived, her father Lin Youxing came back from outside, and the father and daughter were talking in Wen's room.
Knowing that Lin Shuran came to help him find Mr. Academy, Lin Youxing didn't think it was a difficult thing to help her find a few famous gentlemen, but he frowned when he thought that he had read the brochure of her academy and the teaching content of the academy and the requirements for Mr. in the future.
"Sister Ran, the Queen Mother asked you to open the academy, although she let you have full control, but are you out of line?" Lin Youxing looked at a thin booklet that Lin Shuran took over, and looked through it carefully, other academies only require Mr. to teach and educate people, and students can read poetry and books hard, but the children's academy that Lin Shuran wants to open is mainly based on "play", and it is more important to get close to nature, as well as agricultural teaching and mountain and forest teaching, not only to learn poetry and songs, but also to learn arithmetic and medicine, and other strange subjects, which are very miscellaneous, how can such a academy teach students well!
Lin Shuran also knew that it would be a little difficult at first to let the traditional feudal ancients accept her more advanced teaching methods, but "where there is a will, there is a way", she believes that as long as the academy is opened, people will gradually find that the academy is not only a place to teach people to read and behave, but also to teach them more ability to make a living and survive.
"Dad, my academy only recruits young students, they are already playful, I am afraid that there are not many people who can concentrate on sitting there and reading poetry and books, and the queen mother has made a will, presumably the students who come to the academy are from good families, and a few of them can stand the hardships of studying, I just find another way, I hope to teach them some knowledge and the truth of life in loose and interesting subjects." Lin Shuran said his thoughts to Lin Youxing.
Lin Youxing thought of Lin Shuran's teaching to the thirteen children of the Xu family, speaking of which, if you want to say that the most troublesome children in the capital, the children of the Xu family bear the brunt, but that's it, Lin Shuran only took more than a year to make them change a lot, and this kind of change is obvious to everyone, not to mention, his daughter really has some ability to teach people, but opening a college to recruit students is different from her teaching stepson as a housemother, the personnel are more complex and difficult to manage, and the accidents encountered will also increase, and she is a woman who is the head of the mountain, Those gentlemen and students may not be convinced of her, and people outside will also criticize her, can she withstand these multiple pressures at that time? Does she have the ability to cope?
Seeing Lin Youxing's worries about himself, Lin Shuran said to him: "Dad, this matter has always been one thing I want to do, I hope you can support me, there will be difficulties and problems in everything in this world, but as long as I am determined to do it, any difficulties and problems will only become the driving force for me to move forward firmly, not an obstacle, even if my father doesn't help me, I will do it, Dad, you know my temper!"
Lin Shuran's second half of the sentence was a little angry, Lin Youxing had to look at her helplessly, just like when she was going to mourn the dead Gu Jingcheng for three years, that kind of determination and will As long as she makes up her mind, no one can change it, and the queen mother has decreed this matter, it is a sure thing, and it is useless for him to worry about it.
So, Lin Youxing had to smile and say, "I'm your father, I don't help you or anyone, it's just that your academy has very special requirements for Mr. In my opinion, those old scholars who only know how to do learning may not be suitable, if you want to find a suitable husband, you have to ask for someone."
"Whom do you ask?" Lin Shuran's eyes lit up with surprise, since Lin Youxing said so, there was a way.
Lin Youxing smiled mysteriously and said, "Please, uncle-Wen Shangqing!"
Wen Shi just heard the conversation between the father and daughter when he entered the door, and couldn't help but say, "Husband, it's not good for you to ask Sister Ran to beg my eldest brother, isn't it embarrassing for our Sister Ran?" My eldest brother didn't even give my father face, but my sister went to beg him to do something, and it couldn't be done!"
"Mother, why did you pour cold water on me as soon as you came in, is my uncle really so difficult to speak?" Lin Shuran walked up to Wen with a smile and asked, holding her hand.
"Ahh
Since childhood, one of the strangest and most difficult to explain in everyone is her eldest brother Wen Shangqing, who is very stubborn and stubborn, and no one will give face, "It's not that your uncle is difficult to speak, it's that he doesn't talk to people he doesn't like, he doesn't even look down on your grandfather, and now the saint is afraid that he will meet him once after he ascends the throne, and it was your grandfather who wrote to scold him, and he went to see him, he doesn't care about fame and wealth, he only focuses on his own learning."
Although Lin Shuran was a little discouraged when she heard Wen say this, she remembered that when she needed medicinal materials for the Lantern Festival and Xu Minghan's accident, the Wen family was very close to her, which made her feel that her eldest uncle Wen Shangqing was not as unreasonable as the legend, but the eldest uncle should not be willing to be a gentleman in her academy with such a temperament.
"Then according to what my mother said, I asked my uncle to go to my academy to be a gentleman!" The flame of hope that Lin Shuran had just ignited was extinguished again.
"You're going to ask your uncle to be a gentleman? It's impossible!" The Wen family didn't want to give Lin Shuran hope for no reason, her eldest brother, the emperor and her father, couldn't move, let alone Lin Shuran.
Lin Youxing also knew that his eldest brother was difficult to invite, but he told Lin Shuran: "It is indeed a little difficult for you to invite your eldest uncle to the academy to be a gentleman, but your eldest uncle has a few friends, although those people are also unworldly, wild and uninhibited, but they are also really learned people, which is very consistent with the teacher you asked for in the book!"
Wen secretly glared at Lin Youxing after auditing, thinking that he was deliberately giving his daughter a problem, so he said, "The people you said are all as eccentric as my eldest brother, and I think it is more difficult to invite them to teach in the Royal Academy than to invite my eldest brother out of the mountain."
"It's hard or not, as long as I can find the person I want, no matter how difficult it is, I'll give it a try, Dad, do you know who my uncle's friend is?" Lin Shuran rekindled her hope, she was originally the most difficult to find the right husband, but now that she has eyebrows, she has to give it a try.
Lin Youxing nodded, regardless of the Wen family's frequent glances, he said to Lin Shuran: "There are a total of six friends that your uncle has friends with for many years, namely the poet madman Liu Tong, the tea madman Feng Tai, the mad pharmacist Zhang Deng, the drunken immortal Peng Chengxing, the ruthless swordsman Jiang Feng, and the piano idiot Li Xiao."
"Does my uncle have a name?" Lin Shuran asked curiously.
