Yang Yuanzu's dried meat had a salty and spicy taste. Feng Qingyang felt that the taste was weird for the first time he ate it. Gradually, it got more and more spicy. He not only tasted the salty and spicy taste, but also tasted spicy.

The two of them sat on the chairs in the main room and talked. After Suning arranged everything, he put the screen back in front of the bed. The screen blocked the line of sight and protected the privacy of the people living there.

After the two talked, Feng Qingyang picked up the book and started reading again. When Yang Yuanzu saw that the desk was cleaned, he took out pen, ink, paper and inkstone, spread it out, and began to report to his family that they were safe.

Seeing this, Suning hurried over to grind the ink. Upon seeing this, Yang Yuanzu said: "You go clean the room first, and I will grind the ink here. We will go out later after cleaning up."

Suning nodded, indicating that he had received it, and then turned around to clean up the house. He finished it in a little while.

Yang Yuanzu wrote a lot in a long way, and finally used a few pages to express his longing for his wife. After writing, he also drew the appearance of his dormitory in a comic style.

Suning was already used to Yang Yuanzu being like this. When he saw that Yang Yuanzu had almost finished writing, he stepped forward and said, "Master, everything has been sorted out."

Yang Yuanzu folded the letter paper and put it into the envelope, and then said: "Let's go out and send the letter."

Yang Yuanzu said hello to Feng Qingyang and took Suning out. When they went out, Feng Qingyang's little book boy was still busy running around the house - packing things.

The two of them received exit tokens at the gate of the academy, and they needed to use this token to enter when they came back later.

After coming out, Yang Yuanzu asked passers-by about the inn. The inn is where they deliver things. The person who delivers things at the inn is called an envoy. In addition, the people who deliver things at the inn include escorts and porters.

The post station is run by the government and mainly delivers official documents and letters from the court, as well as some letters from ordinary people. The cost is relatively cheap.

Escorts and porters are private and the charges are more expensive, but fortunately they can deliver not only letters, but also anything, and they do it quickly.

Yang Yuanzu bought some local specialty snacks on the street and prepared to send them back to Fengping Village, Shunxing County together with the letter.

He came to the inn, where there were porters recruiting people everywhere, and they could deliver anything that the inn did not deliver.

Since Yang Yuanzu had brought snacks, he had to ask a porter to deliver them. The porter saw that he didn't have much to bring, so he only asked for three taels of silver.

For porters, it takes about half a month to travel back and forth between Fucheng and Shunxing County, so they are charged half a month's wages.

If Yang Yuanzu is the only package porter, he can't make much money, but they will make more if they can get packages along the way.

Yang Yuanzu and the porter confirmed the matter and handed the porter three taels of silver. The porter ran away loudly, shouting: "Shunxing County! Shunxing County! Shunxing County has something for delivery!"

When someone hears this along the way, they will ask the porter how much silver it costs to deliver something to Shunxing County. Generally, such packages are not too expensive, because the guests can bargain with the porters, and the porters will usually agree in order to make more money. Anyway, For them, gifting one is also a gift, and gifting several is also a gift.

The shipping fee of three taels of silver was a bit expensive, and Yang Yuanzu felt a little pain in his heart.

After sending the things, the two went to buy some daily necessities.

When they returned to the entrance of the academy, they showed their tokens to enter the academy, and Yang Yuanzu took Suning to the dining hall.

Food is the most important thing for the people, and he has not yet visited the most important dining hall.

Shenghua Academy covers a large area, and Yang Yuanzu found the dining hall after asking several people on the road.

The two came to the dining hall, and Yang Yuanzu saw the notice posted. In addition to the recruitment information, it also contained the eating regulations for the free meal.

The canteen provides jobs for many poor students, provided that they do not delay their studies because of working. If their grades are too poor, they will be expelled from the college.

Yang Yuanzu inquired around and learned that Dean Jian of Shenghua Academy came from a humble background. He was well aware of the difficulty of studying for students at the bottom, so he formulated a number of measures to ensure the students' studying to the maximum extent.

Yang Yuanzu sighed in his heart, no wonder Shenghua Academy is so famous.

As soon as he entered the dining hall, he found that everyone here ate the food very cleanly, and the bowls looked like they had been washed.

Yang Yuanzu thought to himself that the food in such a clean canteen might be delicious.

The canteen's set meal has one meat and two vegetables. The dishes are limited and can only be ordered once, but the rice is unlimited. As long as the rice in the pot is not finished, you can refill the rice unlimitedly.

When Yang Yuanzu was cooking, he was told that he must not waste food. If he did, he would face a huge fine.

The dean stipulates that if there are three or more grains of rice left in the rice bowl, it has reached the standard of wasting food, and will be punished with a heavy fine of three taels or more.

For example, if you waste four grains of rice, you will be fined 4 taels, if you waste five grains of rice, you will be fined 5 taels, and so on.

There is also a fine of 100 taels for wasting one plate of food, and a fine of 200 taels for two plates. Under the heavy punishment, no one in the college dared to waste food.

Yang Yuanzu was speechless. It was the first time he saw such a strange rule. No wonder everyone's bowls were so clean. It turned out that the answer was here.

There are both free meals and paid meals in the college. The paid meals require additional payment and look much better than the free ones.

Yang Yuanzu looked around and found that there were many masters eating paid meals and boys eating free meals.

A scholar only had one free set meal. After finishing the set meal, he took Suning to order other food.

The main reason is that there are too few things in the free package, not enough for the two of them.

Yang Yuanzu wanted to order more but was afraid they wouldn't be able to finish it, so he ordered a small amount first and then added more when it was not enough.

He did not dine separately with the book boy like others, but chose to eat with Suning. It would not be easy to waste food when the two of them ate together, and there was no need to find another table to sit at.

Most of the dishes in the free set are boiled vegetarian dishes, which is a common cooking method in ordinary people's homes here, while the paid meals are much more particular and have more fishy meat than the free meals, and the cooking methods are relatively more complicated and careful, using Methods such as frying in oil and simmering over low heat are used.

The food in the canteen was not as delicious as Yang Huahua's. Yang Yuanzu began to miss home on his first day at the academy. He decided to write a letter to his wife to complain when he returned later.

Yang Yuanzu looked uninterested in eating, but Suning looked satisfied.

"Do you think the food here is delicious?" Yang Yuanzu couldn't help but ask.

Suning scratched his head in embarrassment and replied with a naive smile: "Although the food here is not as delicious as the Yang family's food, it is much better than what I used to eat at home."

He had never had such good food at home before, and he was often hungry.

Hearing this, Yang Yuanzu recalled that when he first came here, he even saved the rice. Thinking about the porridge mixed with brown rice and polished rice, he felt that the food in front of him was not so unpalatable.
