Chapter 155: Paid Schooling

The old lady rode such a fat donkey at such an old age, thanks to the protection of many people in the open and in the dark, otherwise the donkey would have been robbed to eat the whole donkey feast.

It's really rare to be able to eat such a fat donkey these days.

Although the old lady is willing to guide Yue Mingxuan, it is impossible to guide him every day, so he still has to enter the county school, and when the old lady can't teach him, he will follow the gentleman in the county school to study.

When Yue Mingzhu was about to explain the truth to the old lady, a group of people came out of the county school.

The leader rushed to the old lady and saluted: "Ding Wenyue, the head of Xiaguan County Academy, has seen Old Lady Xue, and I have missed the distance, please forgive me." ”

The dean of the county school has an official title, and he should be called an official in front of the old lady.

Dean Ding heard that Mrs. Xue had arrived, so he hurried to the scene with a group of people, for fear that the old lady would blame.

The old lady is not such a person who is so rigid about etiquette, and besides, he has already made a decision, and he doesn't care if people come to visit him or not.

So he waved his hand and said indifferently: "The old man is now a minister, and he has been gifted by His Majesty to retain the title of Taifu, in fact, the old man is unofficial and light, you don't have to be formal, just treat me as an ordinary old man." ”

Although this is said, but who dares to slack off, His Majesty treats people preferentially, they are too late to hold it.

Besides, if the old lady can teach for a few days in the county school, won't the students in the county school benefit for a lifetime?

The dean led the old lady to the county school and asked the old lady to enter the county school to rest.

The old lady refused, and said with a smile: "The old man won't go in, just now the old man accepted this brother and sister as apprentices, they should serve the old man, and the old man will follow them home." ”

Moon Pearl: "......"

Well, it's a good idea.

Although you are telling the truth, isn't this kind of thing usually raised by us as students, so you don't think it's weird?

The dean couldn't help but turn his head to look at Yue Mingxuan, as for Yue Mingzhu, he automatically ignored it, women don't take scientific exams, and they can't be officials like men when they study.

I saw Dean Ding, who was usually extremely majestic, looking at Yue Mingxuan kindly: "This little friend looks at the student, he shouldn't be a student of my county school, which academy are you studying?" But is there a meritorious name? Dean Ding is thinking about getting people to go to the county school, so that he can also have a good relationship with the old lady, and the old lady is in a good mood, so she may come to the county school to give a lecture.

Yue Mingxuan said respectfully: "Student Yue Mingxuan has met Dean Ding, the student is indeed not a student of the county school, he has already obtained the fame of the child, and he is ready to take the next year's exam." ”

As for which academy he studied in, Yue Mingxuan chose not to say it, it would involve too much to say, so forget it, anyway, the dean probably didn't care where he studied before.

Sure enough, after listening to his answer, Dean Ding didn't care about these at all, and only asked, "Then are you willing to come to my county to study?" It looks like your family is ordinary, but you can rest assured that the county school can exempt you from all the restraints, and if you can be at the top of the exam, you can also get a scholarship to subsidize your family. It can be said that this condition is indeed very superior, and Dean Ding is full of sincerity.

Moon Pearl: "......"

Is this the legendary acquisition of all effortless? In that case, Dean Ding, I'll take Joe.

So Yue Mingzhu cleared her throat and looked embarrassed: "Dean Ding, my family lives in Yueying Village, Liyang Town, which is really far away from the county seat, and my third brother has a lot of school continuity, this, this ......"

Although Yue Mingxuan didn't understand why the little sister said this, didn't they come to the county seat to study in the county? But the little sister is right, so she agrees.

Dean Ding was a little anxious, wanting to knock on the skull of Yue Mingxuan's stupid boy to see what was inside.

No, my sister is a little girl, I can understand, you are a scholar, and you already have a reputation as a child, don't you know what it means to go to school in the county? I've given you all the restraints, and you don't want to come because it's inconvenient to go to school because of the long distance?

Dean Ding said that it was the first time he had met such a stupid pair of brothers and sisters.

Well, they may really not know about the county school, and it is not good for him to explain it to them here, otherwise it will seem that he is like a crutch, but for the sake of Old Lady Xue, Yue Mingxuan must enter the county school today!

is unwilling to come, which means that the temptation is not big enough, as long as you increase the chips, you are not afraid that he will not come.

He gritted his teeth and said to Yue Mingxuan: "In this way, the county school will give you a subsidy of ten taels of silver every month, and you can hire a carriage to go to and from school, so that you don't have to worry about the road." ”

Ten taels of silver a month, in addition to the money for the carriage, there can also be a lot of money to subsidize the family, as long as this kid is not stupid, he has to agree.

The surrounding gentlemen and students are quite shocked, and there are paid schoolers? You must know that the ordinary teaching gentleman in the county school is only ten taels of silver a month.

At this moment, especially the students from poor families, the envy and jealousy of the back molars are about to be crushed, why didn't they do this good thing!

Yue Mingxuan was also a little confused, did he have to agree? Although his family is not short of this bit of silver now, is it too ignorant if he doesn't agree? He couldn't help but look at the moon pearl.

I don't want Yue Mingzhu to say with a straight face: "Thank you Dean Ding for your kindness, it's just that it is useless, the gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way, although my family is not as rich as the family, but it can be regarded as worry-free, my third brother can't accept the subsidy of the county school in vain." ”

This is a rejection.

Dean Ding couldn't help but look at Yue Mingxuan, you kid also mean this?

Yue Mingxuan nodded solemnly in his imminent madness eyes, expressing his agreement with the meaning of the little sister.

At this moment, Dean Ding really wanted to ignore the dean's burden and ask Yue Mingxuan directly, oh, no, ask Yue Mingxuan's little sister, how can you let your third brother come to the county to study?

He saw that this month Mingxuan listened to his little sister, probably sharing a brain with his little sister, but his little sister's brain was not the same as that of a normal person, which was really a headache.

This time, he simply didn't ask Yue Mingxuan, looked at Yue Mingzhu and said, "Doesn't the girl want your third brother to rise to the top?" The county school is the best academy in the county. ”

Yue Mingzhu deliberately pondered for a moment before he spoke with some embarrassment: "Dean Ding, my third brother studied in the town academy before, and his grades were the first, the dean attached great importance to him, and personally tutored him in his homework, as the saying goes, it is better to be a chicken head than a phoenix tail, and the county is full of talents, I am afraid that my third brother will not be able to accept this gap." ”

The meaning of Yue Mingzhu is vague and obvious, that is, you look at it, if you arbitrarily arrange my third brother into an ordinary class, we will not designate you to come to your county to study.

Dean Ding understood this and breathed a sigh of relief, this is easy to do.

immediately spoke: "It seems that your third brother is also a hard-working and motivated person, so let's do it, your third brother will directly enter the second-grade class A, but the students who enter the class A are all students with good grades, and your third brother needs to work harder." ”

The county school is divided into three grades, the first grade is the initiation class, the second grade is the children's class, and the third grade is the Xiucai class.

If you ask, what about going up, why is it gone?

Nonsense, can you still come to the county school to continue studying? Is it bad to go to school? Even so, what else is there for the fourth and fifth grades, even if they are, they can't recruit students and teachers, so why bother!

The second-grade class A that Yue Mingxuan is going to is all students who have achieved relatively high results in the children's examination, and the students in the class A have excellent grades and can get the best teaching resources in the county school, but the learning pressure is also very great, because the gap between everyone is not big, and if you are not careful, your grades may fall behind, so you don't dare to relax for a moment.

Dean Ding felt that it might not be a good choice to let Yue Mingxuan enter Class A, don't look at Yue Mingxuan's ability to take the first place in the town academy exam, but how can the town academy compare with their county school, I am afraid that Yue Mingxuan will enter the class A class and count down, and I hope that Yue Mingxuan can withstand this pressure at that time.

Learning is not a day's work, it needs to be accumulated over time, even if Yue Mingxuan has the guidance of Mrs. Xue in the future, I am afraid that it will be difficult to make rapid progress in a short period of time, it's just that, if he really can't hold on in the future, it will be better to transfer him to another class.
