Chapter 687: Ancestral Hall and Academy
"Brother Yun Zheng, this time we came back, not only to return to our hometown to worship our ancestors, but also to repair the ancestral hall for my father and mother. I've been busy these days, and I don't have time to look for you, can you help me? Yun Zhen looked at Yun Zheng and asked very earnestly.
"You also know that I am now an official and I am not at ease. Yun Ting is in the Guozijian, and he can't come out easily. Although Yun Lei has nothing to do with it, after all, he is too young, and he doesn't understand this kind of thing. So I wanted to ask my brother to help preside over the construction of the ancestral hall. ”
"In addition, the ancestral hall has been repaired, and I plan to enshrine the ancestors of the Han family as well. This matter also has to be agreed by Brother Yun Zheng and the third uncle. "These were negotiated by Yun Zhen and Yun Lin.
Since it is inseparable from the old Han family, it is better to take this opportunity to bring the relationship closer.
What the old Han family did at the beginning, everyone in ten miles and eight towns knew it. Now Yun Zhen opened his mouth and invited all the ancestors of the old Han family into the ancestral hall to worship, which means that Yun Zhen and the others are willing to return to the clan regardless of their past suspicions. Such a performance, in the eyes of others, is that the Yunzhen brothers have not forgotten their roots and have not forgotten their ancestors.
Moreover, as long as they return to the clan, then the clansmen of the Han clan will have to listen to the control of the three Yun Zhen brothers in the future. After all, they are the most outstanding descendants of the Han family, and they are also the most promising people. In many cases, the power of money is the right to speak.
Yun Zheng and the others naturally didn't know the doorway here. But as soon as they heard that Yun Zhen was going to hand over the construction of the ancestral hall to them, and said that the ancestors of the Han family would also be invited in to worship at that time, the brothers, together with Han Yi, were all stunned.
"Yun Zhen, what you said is true?" Han Yi asked in disbelief. God, is this true? Yun Zhen and them, really don't care about the previous things, and are they willing to return to the Han family?
Yun Zhen nodded, "Third Uncle, I still have something to entrust to you." Take your time to look around here, find a flat place, and I'll buy it for money. It's about 500 acres, and it's reserved for the Han clan's sacrificial fields. ”
"It doesn't have to be in our village, it can also be somewhere else, and when the time comes, it will be rented to others to plant, and the rent collected will be kept for the annual sacrifice. After all, our brothers are not here, and the third uncle still needs to be in charge of the affairs. ”
Their brothers are all outside, and there are parents' graves here at home, and there must be someone to take care of the spring and autumn festivals. Although the Qi family is here, they are not descendants of the Han family after all. With the income from this sacrificial field, let Han Yi manage it, and if he wants to come to his parents' graves, it will not be barren.
"If the income is large, it can also be kept for the Han family's descendants to study. If you want to prosper, you must let your children and grandchildren read and write. In the future, more and more children of the Han family will return, and the cost of their studies can be paid from this. "This is also something that their brothers have discussed, you have to give others some sweetness, so that people can listen to you with peace of mind.
When Han Yi heard this, his eyes widened and he looked at Yun Zhen. "Yun Zhen, what you said is true? God, if this is the case, the descendants of our Han family will have hope in the future. Even if not everyone can come out, in each generation, one or two will come out, and that will be the glory of the Han family. ”
No matter who you are, you will want your children and grandchildren to prosper. Now that there is such an opportunity, it has given future generations a guarantee, and anyone will be excited. "Okay, don't worry about this, the third uncle will definitely help you get this matter done. Good, good. Han Yi was already so excited that he didn't know what to say.
"Third uncle, our brothers are still young, and we are not experienced in the world. The third uncle is now the eldest in our family, and he asked the third uncle to help our brother and watch the children and grandchildren of the Han family. You know, this loss is both loss, and all are prosperous. If the children of the Han family are evildoers, then we will also suffer together. Yun Ting said with a smile.
Yun Ting's meaning is naturally to warn Han Yi. Don't think that these are free benefits, and don't think that today they recognize the people of the old Han family, and the old Han family will be able to show off their power in the future. They are all grasshoppers tied to a rope, and if any of them dares to do anything outside, others will also suffer at that time.
Han Yi nodded hurriedly, he was also a child, he was literate and could understand everything. In the officialdom, they are very much inclined to each other. If the Han clan people cause trouble and are reported to the people, then Yun Zhen and they will suffer. If something happens to Yun Zhen and them, then these people from the old Han family don't want to run away.
"These third uncles understand, they all understand, our branch, now it is your seven brothers. The rest of the people don't really have much to do with our family. From now on, the third uncle will help you watch the four in the family, as well as their descendants and grandchildren. Let them all live in a proper manner, and no one is allowed to go out and cause trouble. ”
Yun Zheng also hurriedly expressed his stance at this time, saying that they must live a down-to-earth life and will not hold Yun Zhen and others back. Yun Feng is gone, and even if Yun Zheng is the eldest grandson of the Han family, he does have the right to speak about these things. "Rest assured, brothers, we will all live honestly."
"At the moment, the younger generation is still too young to see what it looks like. Wait for two years, send those who are about the same age to the school, if there is really anyone who can read well in the future, I will take them to the capital to study. After all, for the sake of the children's future, our brothers should also care more. Yun Zhen threw out another piece of pie.
Being able to send his children to the capital to study should be what every father hopes for. If your own children really have this opportunity, they will definitely have a great future in the future. This made Yun Zheng and others even more excited.
One surprise after another, Han Yi and Yun Zheng were all smashed and a little stunned.
Yun Zheng and Yun Zhang's excited faces were red, Yun Zhang rubbed his hands, and his palms were full of sweat. "Well, we don't know what to say. Yun Zhen, don't worry, from now on, the people of the old Han family will definitely not disgrace you. In the end, he only puffed up such a sentence.
Yun Zhen nodded with a smile, this Yun Zhang used to be a little confused, but such a person is even more affectionate. As long as it is something he promised, no matter what, it will be done. "Brother Yunzhang, then I'm counting on you."
"Hey, hey, okay." Yun Zhang said in a continuous voice.
Now that the matter is settled, the big guys are very happy. Taking advantage of this effort, Jinxiu had already ordered someone to prepare the meal, and at this time, the wine and food were put on the table, and he went to invite a few old people in the village and Qianru's father to come over.
In front of everyone, Yun Zhen once again reiterated what he had just said to Han Yi and the others, and at the same time, he also said to Qianru's father, "Uncle Zhao, I am thinking about building another school in our village. ”
"In Wu's house, the place is too small, that is, ten or eight children are accepted, so there is no place to sit. It's better to build a big one, and when the time comes, send the children of every family and those who want to go to school. My third uncle is also a child, and he was not able to take the Xiucai exam again because of the bad world. If you talk about it, it is still possible to enlighten children. ”
"If you build a bigger school, let my third uncle enlighten the little children. Wu Fuzi lectures to older children, so that more children can learn something. Uncle Zhao, what do you think of this? Yun Zhen looked at Qianru's father and said what he thought.
Yun Zhen has such thoughts, and it has not been a day or two. Since going to the capital to be an official, Yun Zhen has realized that the ups and downs of officialdom are really not easy. In many cases, a friendship with fellow villagers will give you a lot of convenience.
If there are a few more talents like Jiang Chengtao in the hometown, everyone can take more care of each other in the future. It's not that it's about forming a party for personal gain, it's just that before each other, take care of it a little, and there will be too much convenience.
Moreover, they have received a lot of favors from the villagers. I can't do anything else, just build a school, it's still very easy, even if it's a return to my hometown.
When Qianru's father heard this, his eyes immediately widened, "Oh, okay, this is good." Yun Zhen thought thoughtfully, this is indeed a great thing. ”
Those old men were also a little excited when they heard what Yun Zhen said. "Oh, look at these children of the Han family, they are rich, and they haven't forgotten our fellow villagers. Okay, according to what Yun Zhen said, this school, the big guys will work together to build it together. ”
"Uncle Zhao, it's better to be like this, let me come out with the books, paper and pens used by the children in the school. There is also my share in the workshop, and they come out of my part. Yun Xue also interjected with a smile at this time.
"Oh, how do you do that? There are a lot of students in our village. Now not only the people in the village, but also the soldiers stationed there, many of them have families, and some of them have children. In the future, there will be more and more children, and so many children will use books, which is a lot of money. When Father Qianru heard this, he hurriedly shook his head.
In these years, the cost of reading is actually quite a lot. If nothing else, it's those pen and paper books, each of which is worth a lot of money. I'm afraid these things will cost a lot of money to be enough. Qianru's father felt that if Yun Xue was asked to pay this money, it would be a bit too much.
Why are there fewer people reading in the north? One is that the learning atmosphere in the north is not as strong as in the south. On the other hand, it is also the people here who generally live a worse life. It is not easy to provide a child with a school, and it really takes a lot of money to do it.
"Uncle Zhao, it doesn't matter. In fact, it is also a bit of paper and pencil fees, and books can be kept and used again. Tell the children that they will care about it, and then you can leave it for the younger children. Yun Xue didn't think it was much, in her opinion, it was nothing.
