Chapter 336 School Reservation

The children of my in-laws are going to be sent to their Hujia Village to study medicine, and Mrs. Wang has no choice but to decide.

told the village chief Hu and others about this, and the village chief Hu called the villagers together again and talked about the latest plans.

"Seeing that the days in the village are getting better, we just thought about setting up a private school in the village, and we don't ask the children what to do in the test. If they can read words, count numbers, and go out without being fooled, even if it is good. Yes." Mrs. Hu said earnestly, "The children must go out after all, it is impossible to follow our older generation and stay in this mountain all the time. Once they go out, the literate and the illiterate will be treated differently. If you don't talk about anything else, just talk about the money you earn, and that's a big difference."

For those who work hard, 20 or 30 wen a day outside is quite a lot.

If those who can read and write can find a job as an accountant, they will have more than a hundred articles a day.

If the children can go further, I heard that in the prefectures and even the capital, the wages in those places are more than 200 yuan for hard work.

When Mr. Hu was young, he went to Fucheng to take the first jinshi exam, but he didn't pass the exam at that time, so he was disheartened and went back to his hometown.

After passing the exam, you can go to the capital to take the official jinshi exam. Presumably the prosperity of the capital must have exceeded his imagination.

"In addition to the private school, we also agreed with Dr. Hu that he would open a medical school next to the private school, so that children can study literature and medicine at the same time." Village chief Hu also added.

Speaking of these plans, the villagers have long heard of them, and now they have officially announced their support.

It wasn't that they didn't send their children to study in the past, when the family was so poor they couldn't help themselves.

Once upon a time, the Lao Wang family was the poorest family, and they were not much richer. At most, they could eat a few meals less than the Lao Wang family.

Aunt Hu said: "Old man, village, we will do whatever you say. After so many years, you have never harmed us, have you?"

This is not a very nice word to say, but it is also true.

Mrs. Hu said with a gentle smile: "It's the natural instinct of parents to want their children to learn more skills. I invite you here today, but there is one more thing I need to ask for your opinion. We set up a private school for the growth of the children in this village. If there are people from other villages who want to send their children to study literature and medicine, are you willing to accept them?"

Villagers, look at me, I look at you.

asked: "Why not?"

Before they had no private school, wouldn't they send their children to other villages if they wanted to study?

The other villages did not say they disagree.

"Does Doctor Hu agree?" Widow Zhou asked.

Doctor Hu's daughter-in-law replied: "Of course she is willing. One more child to study medicine can save more people. This is a good thing to do good deeds and accumulate virtue. Our family minister naturally agrees."

The villagers laughed: "Since the teachers of the teaching have agreed, why do we disagree?"

The matter is settled.

Even a carpenter in the village said that if everyone didn't dislike it, he would also be willing to go to the school to set up a course to teach children how to do carpentry.

The embroidered woman also said: "This reminds me, if you don't mind, I can teach you how to make clothes, and let the girls learn it too."

There are some old antiques among the Ma clan elders, and they are not happy that women teach, but there are several daughters-in-law in the village who are not very good at embroidery, and His Highness's daughter really doesn't know how to teach.

They were the first to agree, and the man in the family was embarrassed to save his daughter-in-law's face, and also agreed.

As soon as there are more people, the Ma clan elders and the others have to recognize them even if they are not happy.

I heard that in the school to be opened in Hujia Village, all the children of each village will be accepted. The in-laws of Lao Wang’s family are happy to say that they must let the children come.

They went home that day, expressing that they would go back and talk to their family.

On the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, a large group of men with hoes and shovels came, which frightened the people of Hujia Village.

When asked, the other party said, "I heard that your school will start in the spring, and it has not been built yet. Let's help build the house. Don't worry, you don't need to pay or take care of your meals. We will bring our own meals!"

In this way, the school in Hujia Village has not yet opened, and there are more than 100 students who are promised to come.
