Chapter seven hundred and eighty third school

Xiaolong and Xiaohu from the Zhang family came to study at home. Zhang, Wulang, even Man'er and Xiaoqi naturally had no objection. However, after Xiaoqi proposed this, none of them agreed.

The first person who agreed and decided to decide on this matter must be Lian Shuxin.

"I think it's OK." Sure enough, even Shouxin was the first to express his opinion, "The village of my grandfather's child is far away from the private school, and Xiaolong and Xiaohu are not allowed to go to study. We run a private school in front of our house and just take the two children over."

"Then I'll have someone send a message to them." Zhang said with a smile on his face, "Studying is a good thing. I told them last time... I just fear that they will not be able to bear the two children."

"Then you have to persuade you, for the sake of your child's good and for the long-term plan." Lian Shouxin said sincerely, "You are reluctant to leave Goro's distance. But if Goro always stays at home, our family will not be like this."

"Well, I will definitely persuade them." Zhang nodded.

"It's almost the Chinese New Year. We have prepared all the New Year gifts for his grandfather, sent someone to send them, and sent the letter to you by the way. It's not a day or two to start a private school. We can think carefully and prepare." Lian Shouxin said again.

"Mom, look how thoughtful my father is." Lian Man'er said with a smile beside him.

Zhang didn't say anything, but looking at her face, you know that her heart must be filled with honey at this moment.

Otherwise, Lian Shouxin must make his statement and make the decision.

Lian Man'er, Goro and Xiaoqi exchanged glances with each other and smiled with pursed lips.

When Xiaolong and Xiaohu came to study in Sanshiliyingzi, they naturally had food and accommodation in Lianjia. The Zhang family was rich and had received some help from Lianjia in the past two years, and their family business doubled. However, no matter how big the family business was, in this era, they could only be considered a wealthy family. If the Zhang family could also have one or two scholars, it would be really a change of family.

Xiaolong and Xiaohu are just in their age to start their studies. If these two children can take the imperial examination road in the future, it will be a blessing for the Zhang family and a helper for the Lian family. Even if the imperial examination fails, being able to read and understand the principles will be necessary and very beneficial to the two children themselves and the future of the Zhang family.

The family decided to run a private school. After another plan, they had to start preparing.

"Brother, should I write a letter to Mr. Lu again?" Lian Man'er said to Wulang, "Tell me about the matter of running a private school and ask if Mr. Lu has any other good ideas."

"I think so too. I'll write a letter later." Goro nodded.

Now that Mr. Lu is in the capital, Goro cannot get along with Mr. Lu for the time being, so he can only communicate with letters. The teacher and student exchanges frequently and talks about everything in the letter. Goro also sends his and Xiaoqi's homework to Mr. Lu. Mr. Lu carefully reviews and corrects them every time, which will be of great help to Goro and Xiaoqi's studies.

To run a private school, of course you have to tell Mr. Lu and listen to Mr. Lu’s opinions.

"By the way," Lian Man'er's heart moved and said to Wulang again. "Brother, you should also ask Mr. Lu to name the private school we run."

"Yes, yes." Lian Shouxin heard it and nodded in agreement. "Our family is today. Thanks to Mr. Lu. He is the man who came to the world and did not dislike our family. The situation at our family was like that. He was doing his best to teach you a few of them. Mr. Lu was the man who was Wenquxing, who is virtuous and talented. The plaque of our private school must be written by Mr. Lu."

The plaque written by Mr. Lu inscribed by a private school is of great significance, so everyone naturally nodded in agreement.

"...The town is called a private school, and there is also a Shengjing Academy in the capital. The scale we run cannot be called a college, but it is still different from a private school. I think, just don't call it a private school, it's just a school." Lian Man'er thought about it and said again.

Private schools teach books on enlightenment such as the Three Character Classic, Hundred Family Names, and the Four Books and Five Classics. In addition to these, the ones that Lian Man'er's family must also teach practical knowledge and skills such as arithmetic. Moreover, the school she opened is of social welfare and the tuition fee is almost exempt. This naturally needs to be opened separately from other private schools.

It is called a school, which looks concise and speaks loudly, and is different from ordinary private schools and academies.

The whole family discussed it and finally agreed with the school's statement.

Lian Man'er and Xiaoqi followed Wulang to the study and wrote a letter to Mr. Lu.

...

The next day, the whole family started preparing for the school. The original sauerkraut workshop had a very spacious courtyard and had six main houses, which could meet the initial requirements of the school. The whole family discussed and built six more wing rooms under the main house.

"If there are many people coming, we can build five more concierges in front of us." Lian Man'er said.

These rooms are enough to accommodate more than 100 students.

If the cold land is cold today, it is not advisable to get ground. The family plans to build a house in the beginning of spring, but the tables, chairs and benches needed in the school must be prepared early.

This woodworking work is naturally taken care of by Lian Shuo.

Lian Shouxin sent someone to find Lian Shouli, told him about the matter, and ordered a hundred sets of tables and chairs with him.

"There is no need to be too busy. Before the spring of next year, you will make fifty sets to be enough for school starts." Lian Shouxin told Lian Shouli, "I'll send someone to buy the wood you want. When I buy it, I'll just take you there... Otherwise, you will follow the wood buyer in a while and you will decide what kind of wood you want to buy and how much you want to buy. Let's pay you a portion of the wages first."

Even Shooli was naturally happy to be able to receive such a big task, and he followed the people to the town to buy wood.

When Zhao and Ye'er found out, they rushed over to thank him and brought a small basket of buns.

The 19th lunar month of the 10th lunar month of the village houses will make buns, and some families with friends will give each other some to taste each other's buns to show their closeness.

When Lian Man'er's house was making buns, Zhao and Lian Ye'er came to help. They had already eaten Lian Man'er's house. This was the buns that Lian Ye'er's house had just made, and they were sent to Lian Man'er's house for a try.

"Sister Man'er, your family is going to open a school. If you have any work, please help me. Sister Man'er, remember to call me and my mother." Sitting in Lian Man'er's room, Lian Ye'er said to Lian Man'er.

"Okay." Lian Man'er nodded and agreed.

The buns sent by Lian Ye'er were just out of the pot and were still hot. Lian Man'er placed the dining table on the kang and put a few snacks and fruits for Lian Ye'er to eat. She picked up a bun and dipped them in some sugar and ate them slowly.

After biting it in just a small bite, I bite the bean paste stuffing.

"It's delicious." Lian Man'er praised, "It's still the bean filling cooked by my third uncle."

"My fourth aunt cooks it delicious." Lian Ye'er said with a smile.

The buns of buns sent to Lian Man'er's house were specially wrapped by Zhao and Lian Ye'er. They were thinner and had a larger filling than the skin they ate. Now even Ye'er's family is better, but Lian Shouli and Zhao are still very careful in their lives, and they don't have so much stuffing.

However, the bean paste filling cooked by Zhao is indeed no less than Zhang's skills.

"By the way, why did you just pack the buns today? Didn't you say you should pack them two days ago?" Lian Man'er finished eating a bun, took a sip of tea slowly, and asked Lian Ye'er.

"Sister Man'er, I'm about to tell you that." Lian Ye'er told Lian Man'er, "Isn't that the old house also packed buns? Let my mother and I go over and help."

"Are you going?" Lian Man'er asked.

"Can you not go? My father asked us to go." Lian Ye'er pouted slightly and said, "Everything at home is ready. I'll go and pack them first before I come back to pack our own."

"Those people in the old house are still using your help?" Lian Man'er said.

"No one of them cooks the bean fillings that my mother cooks. Besides, don't look at the number of people, there are fewer people who can work. My milk still thinks that Ya'er's mother is burying and so on, and she is afraid that Duo'er can make bad things. She can only make money, as well as sister-in-law and Ya'er. There are many people eating, so if she doesn't ask us for help, she has to pack a day and a night." Lian Ye'er said.

"Then the third uncle has gone too?" Lian Man'er asked.

"I'm going, I'll help burn the fire all night." Lian Ye'er said.

"Have you left for dinner?" Lian Man'er asked again.

Lian Ye'er's expression suddenly became complicated.

"Stay it," Lian Ye'er was listless, "It's better not to keep us, we'll eat it by ourselves when we go home."

"Did you look at it?" Lian Man'er asked.

"Sister Man'er, there is no need to ask this." Even Ye'er said, "When I was having dinner, I wanted to take my mother back. My father refused to let me, saying it was not good, and I insisted that we stay for food together. Sister Man'er, my mother and I made her buns for almost a night, and my hands were sore, so I ate their buns, and she also counted them for us."

"After dinner, my mother and I picked up the table and went to the outer room to wash dishes. She sat on the kang and said that my mother had eaten a few buns and I had eaten a few buns. It seemed as if we could eat so much. I wanted to spit the buns back and give them to her." Lian Ye'er almost vomited blood in depression. "She told my father that I had many dishes, but it was not like this when I had not separated before. I asked me if I didn't cook at home."

How could Lian Man'er not know about Zhou's style? But Lian Ye'er's family was the head of Lian Shouli, so she had no position to stop Lian Ye'er and the others from going to the old house, so she could only gently pat Lian Ye'er's shoulder to show comfort.

"Sister Man'er, this is pretty good." Lian Ye'er said with his eyebrows drooping, "You don't know. At the beginning, what our grandfather told my father was that he wanted the two families to pack buns together."

"My third uncle agreed?" Lian Man'er said in surprise.

"No, my father didn't agree." Lian Ye'er said, "My father was afraid that he wouldn't be involved clearly, so he didn't agree."

Compared to buying buns with the old house, just going to work hard and looking at your face is simply a happy choice.
