Bai Jiaxuan's announcement of the cancellation of foot binding and the new primary school has made Bailu Village hotly discussed for several days.

"How can you not bind your feet?"

"I'm afraid the patriarch is dizzy, right?"

"What is a new elementary school? Is it the same as a private school? ”

"The patriarch went to the provincial capital, what did he see?"

Most people, disagree.

A few people went to the county seat and provincial capital to see, and found that the girls outside were not bound to their feet, and the children were all in new-style primary schools. There are also people who attend private schools, but there are not many of them.

These people brought the news back to the source.

This time, the villagers of Bailu Village began to slowly accept the abolition of foot binding and the new primary school.

Some deep-rooted things in Bailu Village have begun to change.

The girl who wanted to bind her feet escaped the "torture of foot binding".

It's something that affects their lives.

This can be regarded as a big change in Bailu Village.

The new elementary school, everyone is looking forward to it.

In the village, most of the children do not go to school.

Lu Zhaopeng, of Lu Zilin's family, was able to go to the next village to study in a private school, and it also cost a lot of money, and ordinary people couldn't afford it.

The teenage children, who can do some farm work, have begun to help their families.

This is what it means that children from poor families are in charge early, and they begin to learn survival skills at an early age.

In fact, learning survival skills too early is not necessarily a good thing.

Children, what they should learn is not survival skills, but other things that can increase their knowledge, vision and other abilities.

In this regard, the rich are more dominant and can better educate their children.

The poor are easy to get poor, and the rich are easy to get rich.

After Zhou Qiang came back, the white wolf did not appear again.

The atmosphere in Bailu Village began to improve after Lu Zilin was punished by the family law. Maybe the white wolf is going to turn into a white deer again.

There are a lot fewer gamblers in the village.

Everyone didn't dare to gamble for a short time, for fear of being beaten by Bai Jiaxuan's expert method.

The people who were cleaned up, they still remember the pain on their bodies, and they don't dare to do it again.

However, there was a descendant named Shi Shi who gambled with Lu Zilin and them before, and he had already lost all his family property because of gambling.

Now in order to pay off the debt, I have to sell the land.

The stone knew that Zhou Qiang was strong, so he asked Zhou Qiang for it.

"The owner, the stones outside want to sell the land." Lao Fan is respectful and respectful, and he doesn't dare to slack off in the slightest.

"Selling land? Let him in. Zhou Qiang ordered casually.

Soon, the stone came in, bowed his head and bowed his waist to say hello to Zhou.

"Stone, you want to sell land?" Zhou Qiang asked directly.

Zhou Qiang has been the boss for a long time, and he has the momentum of a high-ranking person.

He didn't mean to despise stones, he just got used to talking like that.

"Boss Zhouzhou, I want to sell you my three-point land." Shi was a little afraid of Zhou Qiang, and kept his head down.

"Who do you owe? How much is owed? Still forcing you to sell your land? Zhou Qiang unconsciously looked down at the stone.

There is no way, the difference between the identities and status of the two sides is too big.

Zhou Qiang can see the stones, and he is already very down-to-earth. If you want fair communication, it's impossible.

"Luxiang is about to owe five oceans." Stone answered honestly.

"Lu Zilin's, just five oceans?

Lu Zilin is too unusual!

The villagers in the township, just because of the five oceans, forced people to sell their land, which is too inauthentic.

Stone, you pass a word to Lu Zilin.

Just say that you owe five oceans, I will pay it back, let him take care of me.

You'll work on my side later.

You don't have to sell your land. Zhou Qiang unconsciously put on the posture of a superior person.

But Zhou Qiang has a good attitude, is very kind and close to the people.

Zhou Qiang's just a few words made the stone grateful, and he wanted to repay him with death.

"Thank you, Boss Zhou!" The stone knelt down.

At this moment, the stone has a feeling of 'death for the confidant'.

Before the stone came, there was speculation that Zhou Qiang was the same as before, not taking people's fields, and arranging work to earn money to pay off debts.

Now I found out that it was.

In the past few years, there have always been villagers who can't go on and want to sell their land.

Someone asked Zhou Qiang here.

Zhou Qiang not only did not buy land along the river, but arranged work very righteously, so that people could earn money to pay off debts.

Zhou Qiang's benevolence and righteousness are many, and the big guys admire them from the bottom of their hearts.

"Stone, will you still gamble in the future?"

"No more betting, no more betting!" The stone says that it doesn't gamble, but it's just talking.

Gambling is addictive.

It's similar to smoking big cigarettes and drugs, and when you get addicted, you don't care about anything, you have to gamble.

Therefore, people who do not gamble sometimes find it difficult to understand why some people lose their families and property, sell their children and daughters, sell their wives, and still gamble.

"Stone, you are addicted to gambling, no one is watching, you will definitely gamble.

In this way, you can ask the patriarch to receive the ancestral family law every three days.

Gambling is a problem in the hand, or a thug, thirty times each fight.

After three months, see if you can get rid of your gambling addiction.

If you can't quit, continue to receive the family law. Zhou Qiang thought of a way at random, which can be regarded as a good deed.

"Okay, Boss Zhou." The stone bowed his head and agreed.

"Also, let your daughter-in-law receive the money you earn from your work in the future. Don't have any money in your hands. ”

"Okay." The stone did not dare not agree.

"Okay, you go to the patriarch to get the family law first." Zhou Qiang said this and looked at Lao Fan, "Lao Fan, you go with you and make it clear to the patriarch."

After receiving the family law, he was allowed to go up the mountain to farm, and the salary was the same as that of everyone else.

Also, by the way, tell Lu Zilin that the debt of the stone asked Lu Zilin to find me. ”

"Good owner." Lao Fan immediately agreed and left with the stone.

Before the stone left, he knelt down for Zhou Qiang again.

Stone moved to tears.

Lu Zilin was frightened by the white wolf, and asked someone to buy back a few big dogs, under the pretext of recuperating from his injuries, and closed his door.

Knowing that Zhou Qiang took over the matter of the stone's debt, Lu Zilin didn't dare to look for the stone anymore and forced him to repay the money.

Bailu Village gambled, listened to meat plays, smoked a lot of cigarettes and other vices, or because of the white wolf, or because Lu Zilin was closed, or because Bai Jiaxuan used family law, anyway, these vices are temporarily invisible.

Next, Zhou Qiang began to prepare for the new primary school.

In Zishui County, Zhou Qiang also bought a house and a shop, and lived in the county seat, handling formalities, and busy with various things.

When he was looking for his daughter-in-law, matchmakers came back one after another.

After Zhou Qiang saw the portrait, few of them were satisfied, they were not beautiful enough, and they were not as good as Leng Qiuyue, Lu Zhaopeng's daughter-in-law in the future.

It didn't take a few days.

Bai Jiaxuan had a dream in which he saw a white deer burrowing into the stomach of the fairy grass.

After waking up from the dream, not long after, Xiancao gave birth to a female baby named Bai Ling.

In the TV series, Bai Ling was taken away by a white wolf as soon as he was born.

Heiwa caught up, and even caught up, and didn't let the white wolf escape.

Moreover, the white wolf has not bitten Bai Ling yet.

Bai Ling was finally rescued unscathed.

The setting of this bridge section should be to say that Bai Ling is not an ordinary girl.

Now, due to Zhou Qiang's reasons, the white wolf did not take Bai Ling away.

Because of that dream, Bai Jiaxuan felt that her daughter was not an ordinary person.

Bai Jiaxuan likes his daughter Bai Ling very much.

A few more days.

Mr. Zhu is finally back.

He fulfilled his original promise and taught in Fang Sheng's poor hometown for five years.

also because he missed his wife very much, he painted a painting of Zhu Bai's, which has both form and spirit.

Bai Jiaxuan's house.

Mr. Zhu and Zhu Bai came over together.

"Brother-in-law, you're finally back!" Seeing Mr. Zhu, Bai Jiaxuan was emotional, and felt that he had something to say.

"I'm back, I heard that you're the patriarch?" Mr. Zhu looked at Bai Jiaxuan and felt that Bai Jiaxuan was not infected with bad habits.

"Yes, brother-in-law, too much has happened in the past five years."

"Then let's talk about it one by one." Mr. Zhu saw that Bai Jiaxuan had a lot to say.

"Brother-in-law, you left the original year that year.

It didn't take long for the government to ask for three more truckloads of grain

I was arrested for taking the lead in handing over the peasant uprising.

It was the letter you wrote to Governor Zhang that you released me. Speaking of this, Bai Jiaxuan asked, "Brother-in-law, did you calculate that I had this calamity?" ”

"Sort of. Jiaxuan, you have a straight temperament, and when you encounter injustices, it is easy to cause trouble, so I will leave a letter to be prepared. "Mr. Zhu is far-sighted.

"Brother-in-law, you are so godly." Bai Jiaxuan praised it, and then said, "Later, when the ancestral hall was repaired,

Thinking that my family and the deer family will pay together.

Lu Zilin didn't want to pay at first.

It was Zhou Qiang who took the lead in supporting me to repair the ancestral hall.

Lu Zilin finally paid for it.

Later, I planted poppies. Bai Jiaxuan didn't hide anything.

Mr. Zhu's brows furrowed when he heard Bai Jiaxuan planting poppies, but he didn't interrupt Bai Jiaxuan's words.

Bai Jiaxuan also saw Mr. Zhu frowning, and continued: "However, the buds were just out and Zhou Qiang saw them, and Zhou Qiang asked me to plow the tobacco seedlings

Later, the county collected a poll tax, and many people could not survive.

I knew that this was the general trend and I couldn't disobey it, so I didn't stir up trouble again.

However, more and more people are no longer able to survive.

Some people in our village sell land, and some people go to the county seat to beg for food.

At this time, it was Zhou Qiang who contributed.

He covered the mountain, let everyone go up the mountain to farm, and gave the villagers a way to live.

Later, Zhou Qiang got a lot of things, and the original people came to work for Zhou Qiang, and everyone's life was much better.

Brother-in-law, if there was no Zhou Qiang in the past few years, we would have died a lot of miles.

Recently, Zhou Qiang wants to build a new primary school in Bailu Town.

A few days ago, I went to the provincial capital with Zhou Qiang, and I realized that there were great changes outside.

The girls outside are not bound to their feet, and they all go to new-style elementary schools, as well as cars, foreigners' hospitals, and those foreign devils are not human.

Brother-in-law, the note you left behind, the feet are enlarged, and the hair hinges are short.

I've already told the big guy not to bind the girl's feet. ”

Bai Jiaxuan said a lot, and almost told Mr. Zhu about the past few years.

"It's right not to grow poppies. Jiaxuan, if you grow poppies, I won't recognize you as a relative. "Mr. Zhu is a little serious.

"Fortunately, Xiaoqiang reminded me, otherwise, I would have caused a big disaster." Bai Jiaxuan was a little glad that he had ploughed the tobacco seedlings at the beginning.

"Where is Zhou Qiang?" Mr. Zhu suddenly wanted to meet Zhou Qiang.

"I heard that Xiaoqiang went to the county seat. It's not like to build a new elementary school, he's busy with it. ”

Mr. Zhu nodded, "Then wait for him to come back and meet with him." ”

"Okay, Xiaoqiang is back, I'll take him to the academy with me."

At this time, Bai Ling woke up, crying, and provoked everyone to pass.

Mr. Zhu also teased Bai Ling, and he also liked Bai Ling, "Bai Ling, this name is good." ”

"Brother-in-law, before Bai Ling was born, I had a dream in which a white deer ran into the belly of the fairy grass. After waking up from the dream, Bai Ling was born. ”

"Good dream, it means that Bai Ling is our original Bailuli." Mr. Zhu said with a smile, it was a joke.

A few days later.

White Deer Academy.

Bai Jiaxuan, Lu Taiheng, Mr. Leng, and several respected people from Bailu Village came together.

At Bai Jiaxuan's request, Mr. Zhu wrote a township contract.

This township covenant is not the same thing as Lu Zilin's position 'township covenant'.

Lu Zilin's official position is considered an official position.

The township covenant written by Mr. Zhu is an agreement between the villagers and neighbors, a rule, and a guideline for everyone to abide by.

Lu Taiheng is worried that the township covenant is too strict and everyone will not abide by it.

The other clan elders also had this concern, and in their opinion, the laws of the township were stricter than those in the county.

However, Bai Jiaxuan is very optimistic about this township covenant, "It's so decided, I want to engrave this township covenant on the tablet and stand it in our ancestral ancestral hall, so that everyone can copy it back. ”

An auspicious day was chosen.

The township covenant engraved a monument, stood in the ancestral hall, and set off firecrackers to celebrate.

On this day, Zhou Qiang also came back.

Lu Zilin also came.

Of course, Mr. Zhu also came.

In Bailu Village, almost all the villagers came.

Bai Jiaxuan stood in front and read aloud: "Township covenant, morality and industry persuade each other, virtue is said to be good must be done, and what is heard must be changed"

At this moment, the entire ancestral hall was full of solemnity.

It seems that Bailu Village has a 'reliance'.

Most people don't understand, though.

After the ceremony, the crowd dispersed.

Zhou Qiang looked at Mr. Zhu.

This is the first time he has met Mr. Zhu.

Mr. Zhu also looked at Zhou Qiang.

Zhou Qiang walked over and arched his hand: "Zhou Qiang has seen Mr. Zhu, he has heard of the name for a long time, and he can see him today, fortunately, fortunately." ”

Mr. Zhu returned the salute: "I have heard of your name for a long time, you are really a hero." ”

Bai Jiaxuan came over and beckoned Mr. Zhu and Zhou Qiang to go to Bai's house together.

A moment later.

Bai Jiaxuan's house.

Mr. Zhou and Mr. Zhu touted each other commercially.

"Mr. Zhu, you retreat from the Qing army alone, so that the flames of war will be extinguished and the lives will be avoided." Zhou Qiang said a lot about Mr. Zhu's fame.

"Xiaoqiang, you're not bad. The poll tax, when the people were in danger, did not fall into the well, gave them a glimmer of life, and now they have built a new primary school, and everything they do is a benevolent and righteous act." Mr. Zhu was also full of praise for Zhou Qiang.

The two flattered each other for a while.

"Mr. Zhu, the matter of the new primary school is being prepared.

The more troublesome problem now is that mentors are hard to find. Zhou Qiang talked about practical problems, "Especially in Western studies, there are not many people who understand it, and there are a lot of people who are indiscriminate."

There is also Chinese studies, and there are many people who talk about it, and there are few who can understand the true meaning of the book.

Fortunately, now, Mr. Zhu is back.

He also asked Mr. Zhu to go out of the mountain and become a teacher of Chinese studies. ”

Zhou Qiang wanted Mr. Zhu to be a Chinese studies teacher in a primary school.

Of course, Mr. Zhu's level is more than enough to be a Chinese studies teacher in a university.

Zhou Qiang did not mean to belittle Mr. Zhu.

Mr. Zhu didn't want to leave Bailu Academy again, and he wouldn't go to the provincial capital to become a university teacher and earn a high salary.

How so?

There's an interesting thing about this era.

That is in this era, the salary of teachers, high and scary.

Let's give you an example.

For example, the salary of the county magistrate of Zishui County is 20 yuan per month.

Well, the salary of a university teaching assistant is one hundred oceans per month, and the salary of a professor is six hundred dollars.

The monthly income of ordinary people is seven or eight oceans, and there are one or two oceans.

Look at the gap, how big it is!

This era is an era of endless masters and everyone.

There are few teachers, but all of them are extraordinary.

I won't say anything superfluous.

"Oh? Let me be a teacher of Chinese studies? Although Mr. Zhu was a little surprised, he still looked at Zhou Qiang with a smile.

Mr. Zhu can see that Zhou Qiang is not a person who sells fame and reputation, and he is not a greedy and unrighteous person.

Zhou Qiang's eyes are very upright, and he thinks and acts, and he is very open.

In Bailuyuan, the establishment of a new primary school, without personal selfishness, is a benevolent and righteous move.

"Yes. In fact, Mr. Zhu's knowledge is more than enough to go to the provincial capital to become a university teacher, or to go to the government to become an official.

It's just that Mr. Zhu should have no intention of leaving Bailu Academy.

Therefore, Zhou Qiang boldly asked Mr. Zhu to go out of the mountain to educate the original and future generations.

Let them be able to understand things, debate right and wrong, and become frank gentlemen when they are young. When Zhou Qiang said this, he bowed to Mr. Zhu, "Please Mr. Zhu come out of the mountain!" ”。

"It's overrated." Mr. Zhu said a few words modestly, did not agree, did not refuse, and promised to introduce a few teachers to Zhou Qiang.
