There is a mysterious woman in Zhujiazhuang, who looks several times better than the women in the village, often attracting young men to spy on her, but most of them are driven away by Zhu Gongyuan.

He announced to the public that the woman was named Zhu Yingtai, which was a withered branch. Her family was ruined and came to surrender and was adopted as her adopted daughter.

In just one day, he met several matchmakers, most of whom came to talk to Zhu Yingtai for marriage, but he refused in a serious manner and even spoke out that Zhu Yingtai was weak and should be well cultivated. If he really liked her, please do not disturb her too much. Even so, it would not stop the name Zhu Yingtai from being popular in the farmland.

A beautiful lady is a gentleman.

What's more, the moon is the first to get close to the water. I don't know which generation this so-called cousin is, and he has long lost the constraints of blood relatives and unmarried marriages.

Zhu Yingtai was also upset about this matter, so that her somewhat reckless temperament had become much more restrained. She no longer took a random walk, but only watched the scenery in a certain safe place, and regarded it as exercise.

"Zhu Yuanwai has also taken the initiative. Knowing that I am living here, I have brought the pleasing bonsai in the farm here." Under the maid's service, Zhu Yingtai laughed softly while walking, but his eyes fell on the evergreen green plant in a potted plant, and his slender jade fingers stretched out, gently stroking the veins of the green leaves.

"The girl is kind to him. Doing this can only mean that he is aware of his reputation and repays his kindness. It's nothing great." The maid said carelessly next to him.

Zhu Yingtai turned around, pinched the maid's face, and joked: "I know nonsense, wait for me to let Jiu Niang sew it on your mouth."

The maid pouted her lips, shook her head helplessly, and then said, "Girl, when I came here just now, I saw that Mr. Zhu's eldest son came back from the county magistrate's house. It seemed to be talking about the recruitment of the Juwu Academy, but I can't confirm it, because what I heard was that he was talking about Chongqi Academy. I have never heard of this name, and I don't know if it was the Juwu Academy... Hey, girl, where are you going?"

Zhu Yingtai didn't look back: "Of course I'm looking for Zhu Zishi. Is it a school of things to learn? Just ask."

Fortunately, here is not far from the courtyard where Zhu Wei lives, and everyone in the entire farm knows Zhu Yingtai, so no one dares to block the road and let her go directly in.

Zhu Wei was sorting out documents in the courtyard. When he saw Zhu Yingtai suddenly coming in, he was slightly stunned, but he quickly laughed and said, "Is the girl here for the Chongqi Academy?"

As Zhu Gongyuan's eldest son, Zhu Wei naturally knew Zhu Yingtai's true identity, so he did not dare to go beyond it.

"Well, is Chongqi Academy the Estuary School opened by Wang Shuping? Is this the official name?" Zhu Yingtai sat opposite Zhu Wei, leaning on his delicate chin, looking lazy and idle. It looks a little bit in his small body, but it is even more attractive.

Zhu Wei took a look, lowered his head quickly, not daring to look at it again, and replied: "It's a formal name. I have learned about the girl's affairs from my father. It happens that I am responsible for the recruitment of villages in Zhujiazhuang. Tomorrow, the girl will follow me and I will arrange other things."

"Then I'll trouble you." Zhu Yingtai smiled and slapped the stone table. He stood up and waved his hand at Zhu Wei. "Then remember to call me when you leave tomorrow, and I'll clean up first."

"I understand." Zhu Wei nodded and sent him out respectfully.

Then he raised his head, looked at the blue sky, sighed in his heart, and the clouds that were still floating above his head had disappeared.

...

Bao Village began to become lively again.

Although it was said that the day people came to the village had just passed and there were a few days before the next time, even at that time, the noise caused was not as big as today.

Chongqi Academy has recruited students.

This is the Essence School that the village chief, adult, child and even women often talk about. The Essence School opened by Wang Shuping and provided to the common people. Even if they don’t know what they will learn after going there, they are still proud. This is a glory, and the gift of glory is the person represented by the statue in the square in the center of the village.

Wang Shuping is a god in their hearts.

Since it is a blessing from the gods, even if the eight-year-old boy, even if he doesn't know what this means, he is happy to be able to stand up in front of his friends: I am eight years old this year, you are only seven years old...

The village chief brought the minor officials who came here to his home. He learned that today was just a notice and would not take the children there until tomorrow, so they were not in a hurry. After all, some children were unwilling to leave home, and the adults at home were coaxing them. Taking this time, the village chief led people to clean up a good room for the minor officials to live in.

The chickens and ducks raised in the village are croaking and running around in the village; the farmer who just returned from the field is holding a cow and carrying a hoe, and there are occasionally little shepherd boys playing flutes sitting on it; but most people are still noisy and noisy, and they are in a mess. Parents are anxious to prepare clothes, rations, etc. for their children, and some foods are not enough, and they have to borrow them.

Of course, Wang Ningzhi had already conducted a survey on the issue of food rations, so he would not charge too much. He even asked them to take a little less according to the weight of the children, and the college would supplement it at that time.

The supplementary food and funds were of course provided by the county magistrate's office.

The minor official should also explain this to the village chief and tell him that the opening of Chongqi Academy was not to make money, but to popularize education, contribute to the Northern Expedition, etc., and he was not afraid that the village chief would not understand it, and in fact they didn’t need to understand it, as long as he knew that he would not spend money.

The reason why I say this is to guard against some poor families and aristocratic families who are determined to target.

...

Unlike the chaos in Baocun, Changxiu Village seems much quieter. In fact, before the arrival of the little official, Lin Changxiu, a small real person from the nearby Taoist temple, had already come over and organized all households in the village to level the children's list, and then clearly informed everything they needed to prepare.

After the little official arrived, he just told the village chief about the purpose of establishing Chongqi Academy, and then he was arranged to have dinner, rest early, and take the children with him early tomorrow.

In a house near the center of the village, an old man was educating his young grandson: "Ashan, among many children, you are the smartest. When you go there, learn more from the gentlemen, learn more and read more, remember our great benefactor, Mr. Wang Shuping, when you become talented in the future, you will repay your benefactor..."

"I understand, Grandpa."

"It's good to know, it's good to know. Tomorrow, we will leave the team in our village to lead the team. We must be more secure and don't have any accidents."

"Um."
