A Timely Wife

The so-called enrollment was decided after consultation between Chengdong and Li Ruosong. This kind of enrollment method was unheard of in Dachu. Li Qi and Li Liang disagreed at the beginning. After all, they were not sure about the fact that there was no precedent Can you do it.

Chengdong carefully explained to the two elders the reason for such enrollment. There has been no school in the village for so many years, and suddenly there is a school that does not need to be repaired. It must be as many children as there are in the family. Even if it is the busy farming season, the idea of ​​coming home is to be busy with farming during the day and study homework at night.

As the founder of the school, it is natural that the words spoken before cannot be taken back for no reason, but if all of them are really taken in, and regardless of age, then the whole class of children is afraid that no one can learn well. The good and the bad are different in size, and if they are literate together in one place, that is not a good thing, but a disaster.

In Chengdong's vision, these children must be divided into at least five classes. All children under the age of six are in the kindergarten class, those from six to ten years old are in the small class, those from ten to 12 are in the middle class, and those under the age of 12 are in the middle class. Those over the age of [-] are placed in the big class, and those who are older are placed in the special class.

The nursery class is handed over to Li Ruoshan. On the one hand, Li Ruoshan’s knowledge is enough to teach these children. On the other hand, Chengdong also wants to cultivate Li Ruoshan’s ability to speak in public and management skills. He can’t manage the children in a class. , I don’t need to talk about other people in the future.

The small class is handed over to Li Ruosong, the middle class is handed over to Li Liang, and the big class is taken by himself. As for the special class, he wants to hand it over to Butler Zhang. There is a reason for this division. The children in the special class are basically 15 years old. Above, most of the boys of this age are already married, even if they are not married, they are probably engaged. In this way, it is definitely impossible for them to study with peace of mind, and they don’t have that kind of thought, but if they They are not very willing to spend their entire lives in the village with their faces facing the loess and their backs facing the sky.

So this special class is similar to the adult education college of Chengdong's later generations. There are various cram schools in it, such as carpenters, blacksmiths, craftsmen, etc. You can learn a craft, and you will also have the ability to live and live in the future, and go further. He said that Chengdong felt that according to the information disclosed to them by Steward Zhang and Zhou Nuyuan, the great chaos is coming, and it is very important to have a group of people who are willing to follow them if they want to gain a firm foothold in the coming storm.

If you want to seize the opportunity to jump up in troubled times, it is nothing more than to see how powerful the force is in your hands. But when the world is stable, if you want the country to have a good development, technology is definitely the primary productive force. Dong is very convinced that where technology comes from, it comes from these craftsmen who are now looked down upon.

Chengdong didn't shy away from anything, he told Li Qi and Li Liang what he thought, including why he said technology was very important, and he gave a few examples for this, agricultural, industrial, and even Regarding the military, after listening to Cheng Dong's words, Li Qi directly agreed with Cheng Dong's opinion.

In front of Chengdong, Li Qi didn't say anything, but in front of Li Ruosong, Li Qi expressed his inner worries, "Your husband is so wise that he is almost a monster. Your grandfather and I have lived to this age. The most praiseworthy thing is to take one step and see three steps, but you, my husband, have seen at least 500 years of future generations. Songer, grandfather is really worried. You know, God cannot tolerate the existence of perfect people. The confidante is jealous of talents, Songer, you have to be mentally prepared^" Li Ruosong's expression was heavy, and Li Qi's words just hit what he was most worried about. He knew that Chengdong didn't belong to this place in the first place. What I am afraid of is that suddenly one day Chengdong will go back, and go back to the place that belonged to him. If Chengdong dies, he is not afraid. The great thing is that he will go with him. he?Can he still find him?

Li Ruosong has been worrying about gains and losses for a few days, and his whole body has become quite depressed. No matter how dull Cheng Dong is, he can still detect that something is wrong with the person next to his pillow. , but still comforted: "You are really worried, since God let me come here, he will not let me leave so easily, and, where can I go after leaving here, I can't go back to the previous place Well, if you don’t want me here, then I will really become a lonely ghost. Besides, you think it’s so easy to come and go. If it’s so easy, there will be only one exception like me after thousands of years , So, rest assured, instead of thinking about what will happen after we die, it is better to focus on the present, and do well and finish what we should do when we are alive."

Chengdong's words made Li Ruosong sober up. Yes, there are still many things that need to be done by the two of them when they are alive. Why worry about things after death? Holding Chengdong's hand, he will follow wherever Chengdong goes.

Based on Chengdong's idea, Li Qi called Butler Zhang and Zhou Nuyuan to discuss the matter together the day before Yueweitang opened. Naturally, Zhang Steward and Zhou Nuyuan would not object. They were curious as to why there were so many strange thoughts in Chengdong's mind. Since the construction of Yueweitang and Yanwutang, they had already discovered that Chengdong was definitely not an ordinary person, but Butler Zhang was not an ordinary person at all, so He wouldn't say it even if he had doubts in his heart, not to mention, having such a person by Li Ruoshan's side would only be a good thing and not a bad thing for him.

As for Zhou Nuyuan, he doesn't care even more, as long as Chengdong is willing to teach him, even if someone tells him Chengdong is a monster, he doesn't care. For him, strength is the capital of speaking, and he will listen to whoever has a hard fist of.

The enrollment of Liujiagou lasted for a whole day, and a total of 130 children were recruited. They were divided into five classes according to the requirements. Among them, about ten children were good materials for martial arts, and they themselves were more willing to practice martial arts. Many children were directly taken away by Zhou Nuyuan and placed in the dormitory of Yanwu Hall.

There are quite a lot of children in the kindergarten class at Yueweitang. There are 48 children in total, 37 children in the small class, and the rest are in the middle class, big class and special class. Generally speaking, there are not many older children coming here. Of course, this is only the first day of enrollment. After Chengdong released the news that even married people can come if they want to learn a craft, the special class suddenly became the largest number of people. class.

Among all the people who lead the class, the happiest one is Butler Zhang. He found a few good seedlings among the more than 100 people. His medical skills came from an imperial physician when he was young. He has been wanting to choose one for so many years. Apprentice, it's a pity that those newcomers in the palace are too impetuous to study medicine, but in such a small village, he found five apprentices at once, which made Steward Zhang very happy. Small, the youngest is only four years old, and the oldest is 11 years old. Butler Zhang will never refuse anyone. No matter how old you are, as long as you want to learn, I will teach you well. Most people who study medicine must have some understanding, and The heart must be straight, otherwise the more you learn, the greater the harm. It took a long time for Steward Zhang to decide to accept these five people as apprentices.

The gentlemen on the craftsman side had previously built houses and made furniture for the Li family. Li Guanshi was very good at picking people. The carpenter he was looking for had a childless wife who died young and never remarried. He was alone like this. After so many years, the only hobby in his life is carpentry. Once there is something new, he can stay up for several days and nights. The carpenter Zhuang who pestered Chengdong to learn from his teacher was the carpenter Zhuang. After preparing to set up a carpentry class, the little old man agreed without saying a word. This place has food, a house, and apprentices. The most important thing is that there are new things to make. Why don't you just stay? Anyway, he is only alone. No children, no daughters, no worries.

Another craftsman specializes in building houses. He has a son, a daughter, and a wife. The wife is very good at sewing clothes. When he came to build a house for Chengdong's family, his wife and two daughters helped Chengdong's family do it. For clothes, this craftsman has three sons in total, all of whom inherited his father's business. Manager Li took this as his fancy and hired this craftsman to take over the job.

Chengdong also took a fancy to this family. The man can build a house, and the woman can be a tailor. They are about to make some school uniforms and military uniforms. Tailors are needed in the first place. This family is a coincidence.

Li Qi is not a stingy man, the wages for these gentlemen are still relatively high, but there is only one point, they all have to sign a contract with the Li family, and the contract is basically signed every ten years, the artisan family discussed it After three days, I finally decided to stay in Liujiagou, and live in the courtyard specially reserved for gentlemen in Yueweitang.

Another reason for Chengdong to keep this family is that he does not intend to let the boys in the village read and write. He hopes that the girls in the village can also learn to read and understand, and learn some crafts.For this point, not to mention Li Qi and Li Liang, even Li Ruosong, who usually communicates with Chengdong the most, is also very puzzled.

Regarding the doubts raised by his family members, Chengdong only asked a few questions.

"Dare to ask grandfather, who taught my aunt before she got married?"

"Naturally your grandmother taught."

"Dare to ask father, who taught my husband more since childhood?"

"Your mother taught Song'er more before she was eight years old, and I took care of her more after she was eight years old."

"I won't ask Ruoshan. My aunt must have taught me the most. It can be said that we are all good at women's hands. Even if we grow up and follow our father, the teachings of our childhood will not be erased. My childhood I once heard a saying from a gentleman of mine that educating a girl is equivalent to educating a country. Only girls who are sensible and knowledgeable from an early age can educate sensible children when she is married and raising children. We wonder why many people like to marry the right family, the richer the family, the more they pay attention to the identity of the girl, I thought it was the education the girl received from that family."
