When the school was built, the old and young men in the village were very happy, and they came here to ask Mr. Shu Xiu of the school.

You must know that the training in ancient schools is generally relatively expensive, so most peasant families cannot afford this part of the cost.

Liu Luochen's original intention was to build a school to benefit the village, and it was considered a good deed, so naturally he would not set the price of Shuxiu high.

For the children surnamed Liu in the family, if they are talented, the money harvested from the farming of the family's public land will be used to support their education.

For children under the age of eight in the village, free enlightenment is adopted. As long as the children are willing, they can go to the school for free to study.

Those who are over eight years old and intend to take the imperial examination can pay [-] Wen per semester. If the family has no money, they can also use food to pay for it.

All the tables, chairs and benches in the school, as well as the books used for teaching, were purchased by Liu Luochen.

If these children want to take the books home, they can only practice their calligraphy well and then copy the books by themselves, otherwise the ancient books are extremely precious and valuable.

In ancient times, the imperial examination was a long road. It was a single-plank bridge with thousands of troops and horses, and there were only a handful of people who were able to win the first and second grades. , I am afraid that if the family does not eat or drink, it will not be enough for poor families.

In order to solve the problem of travel expenses for the really poor rural students, Liu Luochen also specially set up a bursary to encourage the children in the school to actively participate in the scientific examination. As long as those who have passed the test can receive a sum of money from the bursary, it will be used as a rush for the exam. travel expenses.

However, in order to prevent some caring people from using the fund to seek their own interests, Liu Luochen also specially set many detailed rules. Every farm student who received a bursary in the school will be carefully investigated, and it will be issued only after it is confirmed that it is correct.

The village chiefs of several nearby villages were moved when they heard the news, and went to Liujia Village several times to get close to the village chief of Liujia Village. They hoped that the dolls in their own village could also go to school to study and understand There can also be a good way out after writing hyphenated characters.

Most of the people in these ten miles and eight villages were related to relatives, and the village head Liu really couldn't refuse, so he could only ask Liu Luochen for his opinion with a thick face.

Liu Luochen agreed without thinking about it, but the children in the outer village had to pay [-] Wen to the school every quarter before they were eight years old, and if they decided to go to the advanced class after the imperial examination, they had to pay [-] Wen every quarter.

Although some people complained about Liu Luochen's decision and felt it was unfair, why did the children in Liujia Village study for free before the age of eight, while the children in other villages asked for money? common people.

But really smart people just spit on this statement, send their dolls to the school early, and be enlightened earlier, so that it is true to read and write.

There is no such thing as a free lunch in the world. Mr. Liu built such a big school and was responsible for the wages of his masters. He threw down real money and said nothing, and his own dolls only pay [-] cents a quarter. Forget it, these tree repairers don't even have a third of the average master's family.

Most people are rational, and those who take advantage of it and act obedient naturally dare not speak up, but Liu Luochen doesn't pay any attention to these voices of criticism.

Seeing that there are more and more students in the school, and several towns around have heard the news and want to come here to investigate the situation.

Liu Luochen couldn't help rubbing his brows with a headache. Due to the limited scale of the existing school, he could only order the school steward to enroll only the children from the three surrounding villages and Liujia Village to start their studies, and other outsiders would not accept it for the time being.

Little Muxi is now strong and painful, her hands and feet are also very strong, she can stand up tremblingly and walk two steps while holding on to something.

Since the little guy was able to call people last time, he can talk more and more, and then he chattered non-stop with familiar people all day long, like a cheerful bird.

But what Xiao Muxi likes the most is her father and father. She hasn't seen Liu Luochen for many days. When she sees him returning in a hurry, she immediately looks like a little swallow returning home. Her eyes are bright, and she looks at Liu Luochen. Flutter in your arms.

This time Liu Luochen went back to Liujia Village, because Nan Nian had to take care of the business in the shop, so he didn't follow him.

Hearing the movement at the door, Nan Nian hastily soaked a cold handkerchief and handed it to Liu Luochen, asking him to wipe the sweat off his forehead and neck, then took Xiao Muxi by the hand, grabbed his chubby little hand to tease him: "Oh, we My little Mu Xi misses her father very much recently, and when she is willing to take a walk, she always looks out with her little neck."

"My dear son, give me a scent." Liu Luochen took the handkerchief and wiped the sweat off his face, stretched out his head and gave his son a scent, and then smiled all over his face.

"It's hot outside these days. You've lost a lot of weight after running for a few days. Go home for a few days and take a good rest."

Nan Nian saw the exhaustion on Liu Luochen's face, reached out and grabbed the man's wrist, and walked towards the bedroom.After working hard for a long time, Liu Luochen didn't want to eat in the hot summer, and the little meat that Liu Luochen had raised in winter disappeared all at once, and his cheeks became thinner.

It made Nan Nian feel very distressed, and every day, she asked Aunt Du to make soup and delicious food for Liu Luochen in different ways, and to make up for the meat on Liu Luochen's body in autumn.

During the period of resting at home, Liu Luochen could be described as living a pig-like life after eating and sleeping, and eating after sleeping.

He stayed at home all day with ice cubes to cool off, and also teased his fat son, learning to walk and talk, and his life was very comfortable.

The flesh on Liu Luochen's cheeks also grew out little by little, and he became fairer. After the beginning of autumn, the temperature gradually cooled down, and the test was over.

Due to the sweltering heat this summer, many students rushing to take the exam will inevitably suffer from heatstroke on the way, and even those unlucky ones will die before they can be treated in time.

Seeing scholars coming back one after another, Liu Luochen also thought of Han Xin and Liu Zhiming, thinking that these two people should be back soon, and they will be taken care of by Wang He on the way, so there shouldn't be any problems.

Everyone talked about Cao Cao, and Cao Cao arrived. Liu Luochen had just read about Han Xin and the two of them. Early the next morning, the porter in front notified Wang He to bring Han Xin and Liu Zhiming back.

Compared to before they left, both of them were much darker and thinner, and their expressions were full of exhaustion.

Although Liu Luochen wanted to ask something, he didn't say much when he saw the two of them like this. He directly ordered Aunt Du to prepare a large table of digestible food, and then boiled hot water for the two of them to wash up first. Let's talk after a meal.

Although Wang He's legs and feet remained the same, he had been crawling outside all year round, and his resilience was relatively strong. After tying up the carriage, he returned to Liu Luochen's side. Still very energetic, so I feel relieved.

"Brother Wang, you have worked hard this time. Later, I will ask the accountant to pay you ten taels of silver as a reward. You should also take a good rest these few days and don't need to rush to work. The child Xiaoyu also misses it very much." you."

Hearing that there was a bounty, Wang He scratched his head foolishly, accepted it without refusing, then answered a few words with Liu Luochen, then strode towards the West Wing, ready to see Xiao Yu.

After going out for so many days, he is his father and son, and he misses Xiao Yu day and night.

After Han Xin and Liu Zhiming washed up, they sat at the table to eat, while Liu Luochen and Nan Nian sat at the same table, but they didn't move their chopsticks.

As if the two were devouring their food, Liu Luochen raised his hand and poured them a cup of tea, and then asked them about their exams on the way.

After chatting with Liu Luochen for a while, seeing that the two of them were also tired, he waved his hand and asked Aunt Du to tidy up two guest rooms in the East Wing, and temporarily let the two of them stay there. After a night's rest, they will leave for Liujia Village tomorrow.

Liu Zhiming looked at the back of his eldest brother who was holding a milk doll and turned away, a little dazed.

Along the way, he and Han Xin had a heart-to-heart relationship. After the other party opened up several times, he also owed his elder brother in his heart.

In the past, Liu Zhiming felt his cheeks were hot when he recalled some of his prejudices against him, and he felt ashamed to face his brother.

Now that he has returned to the town to rush for the exam, he is even more warmly received by his brother, and he doesn't know how to express it.

Liu Zhiming could only silently remember this kindness in his heart.

Counting the days, I will soon go back to Liu's Village, and settle accounts with Skinny Monkey for this year's Spicy Chuanchuan. Liu Luochen happened to be going to Liu's Village with Han Xin and Liu Zhiming. There is no urgent matter in Liu's mind. Nan Nian followed the carriage back to Liu's Village home village.

The speed of the carriage was fast, Zhengzhou returned to Liujia Village, and within an hour, the group of them had arrived at the gate of Liujia Village.

Jumping off the carriage, Liu Zhiyuan solemnly bowed his hands to Liu Luochen and said respectfully, "My elder brother will go home now, thank you for your hospitality these days."

Seeing his appearance, Liu Luochen had a slight smile on his face. The third child of the Liu family was educated at least, and now being able to understand his mentality will be of great benefit to the future life of Liu Tiezhu's family.

"Third brother, you're being polite. You've been busy all this way, so you should rest more."

Liu Luochen and Shouhou did the business of stringing incense. Although he gave the recipe to Shouhou when he left Liu's Village, Shouhou didn't ask for it in vain. He gave Liu Luochen some profits every month. One hundred taels of silver.

It can be seen from this that Shouhou has been doing very well in the spicy skewers business during this period of time. Not to mention making a lot of money, it can be regarded as ample money and a good way to make money.

The young man stayed in Liujia Village for a day, and stopped by to see the school that was now on the right track. Hearing the sound of reading from afar, the corners of his mouth could not help but smile.

"Our fat son is really good at shopping. In two years, we will hire a private school teacher to enlighten him and put a curse on him."
