Although Yu and Zhao were quite talented, they both gave up the idea of teaching because they were already officials and slaves. work, such as purchasing items, maintaining facilities and equipment, and arranging personnel assignments, which is the post-secularly known academic staff.
The starting point of Erya Women's School was lifted to a height in mid-air due to Madam Liu's great help. Even if people wanted to open a women's school later, it would not be able to surpass the status of the mountain leader of Erya Women's School. Established the identity of the first person in the middle school for girls in Luohe Prefecture.
At first, many people sent their daughters to Erya Academy just because they wanted to have a relationship with the Liu family, but after less than half a month, they found that their daughters were really useful in going to school. Much more, the piano is also better than before, and even the social circle is much wider, and some of them have made a few big deals through the help of their own daughters! Those who have tasted the sweetness feel that, ah! It turns out that this Erya Women's School is really good! Isn't it just one hundred taels of tuition a year! read!
As for the Su family's three young silver jewelry sisters, they were forced to enroll by the elder sister. The three sisters were somewhat resistant at first: "Isn't there a gentleman in the family? Why do you still go to the girls' school?" Especially the young beads. The dead child even dared to use the tricks of crying, making trouble, and hanging himself, but Young Jin didn't soften his heart this time, and just packed up the three sisters and threw them to the girls' school.
Although the three sisters were unhappy at first, after staying in the women's school for a while, they also made a lot of friends and looked like a little girl. You Jin was satisfied with this. For the sake of the family's livelihood, several younger sisters were all young and mature, and they always lacked the meaning of young girls. Now that they are with so many people of the same age, they have become a lot more lively.
As for the two sisters-in-law of Youhe of the Liu family, they are also admitted to school for free with the little girls of the Su family. At first, some classmates saw that the two did not dress like the girls of the rich family, and they despised them, but later they learned about the elder brother of the Liu family. At a young age, she was already a scholar, and she was also a relative of the Su family. The little girl's situation in women's school was improving day by day, and she also fell in love with going to school every day.
"Mother, we made an appointment with our classmates tomorrow to go to Qianhe Lake to appreciate the lotus!" The Liu family's youngest daughter returned home after school this day, and she hugged Qin's arm and shook and said, "Is it possible? ~”
Now that life at home is getting better and better, Qin Shi, who used to have a bitter appearance, is now also brows and eyes, but it is a lot more blessed than before. She was a little dizzy by the shaking of her daughter, and quickly grabbed her hand and said with a smile: "Chengchengcheng, let's go, just pay attention to safety." Qianhe Lake is actually the lotus pond built by the Su family in Houjiawan. , How could the Qin family not agree to her daughter going to the Su family's land to play
"Mother is the best!" The Liu family's young daughter exclaimed happily, and then hurriedly went to her sister to share the good news. They also had to prepare clothes and jewelry for going out to play tomorrow!
As for Qin Shi, who was holding her grandson, she also smiled and squinted. Her two daughters were too quiet, but now they have become a lot more active, and they are more like thirteen or fourteen-year-old girls than before.

The lotus flowers of the Su family were blooming, and Youjin also elegantly made a sign and hung it at the entrance of the lotus pond, called "Thousand Lotus Lake". And built a few pavilions beside the lotus pond, sitting in the pavilion to enjoy the lotus leaves and the lotus flowers in the sky, it is quite interesting.
This time, the meeting of the Erya women's writing class was first proposed by Liu Yuqi, the daughter of Liu's family, and after the votes of the little girls who wanted to attend the party, they decided to go to the "Qianhe Lake" of the Su family this time. Reward the lotus. As the only Su family member in the writing class, Young Pearl was naturally obliged to prepare a set of items for entertaining guests.
"Yes, San'er, ask someone to pull some ice cubes over there. I see that the sun is a little big today. I put a few ice basins in the gazebo to make it cooler. I can also ice some sour plum soup and mung bean soup for later use." Youzhu today He arrived at Houjiawan early, and instructed the servants of the Su family to prepare in a hurry, for fear of missing any details. The Su family knew that the third girl was going to have a banquet today, and they were ordered by the eldest girl, so they naturally cooperated with the third girl as a demon, no, banquet.
On the edge of the lotus pond, five small boats have set up their sheds, and the incense, ice, drinks, and snacks are all prepared in the pavilion. outsider's sight.
"The ten-mile lotus pond is really beautiful." At the entrance of Qianhe Lake, several carriages were parked on the side of the road. Liu Yuqi got off the carriage with the help of the maid next to him, and he was greeted by the enthusiastic lotus flowers, picking up the lotus leaves in the sky. Looks very nice in.
Behind Liu Yuqi was Liu Yuran, the concubine of the Liu family. Hearing her sister say this, she smiled and echoed twice. Although Liu Yuqi and her concubine were not close, they still gave enough face outside. He answered quietly. Behind the two girls in the Liu family were students from the writing class, all young girls. When they saw this beautiful scenery, they were naturally delighted. The one who said that the red lotus looks good is really not lively.
As the head of the house, Young Pearl heard the movement outside, and naturally she quickly greeted her: "You guys are here! Come in quickly!"
"Youzhu, the scenery of Qianhe Lake in your house is quite good. It seems that we did not come in vain today." Liu Yuqi walked in the front and said with a smile to Youzhu, who was half a step behind her: "It's this hot day. You've prepared this for all your hard work."
It's June now, so naturally it's a little hot, but as soon as the families entered the pavilion, they felt a rush of cool air on their faces, and the feeling of exhaustion disappeared immediately: "Oh, I said why it's so cool, It turned out to be three ice buckets! You are so thoughtful, Youzhu!"
After all the talents were seated, the melodious sound of the pipa came from the depths of the lotus pond, and then a melodious female voice followed the sound of the pipa as slowly as the water fell on a jade plate: "The south of the Yangtze River can pick lotus, and the lotus leaves are in Hetiantian... . "
"Youzhu, the host, did a really good job. I didn't know there were actors who sang so beautifully in Luohe Prefecture!" After the song, Liu Yuqi laughed and applauded, very satisfied with the arrangement of the Su family.
Sitting next to Liu Yuqi, Youzhu smiled and said, "Miss Liu, it's good as long as everyone has a good time." Then she turned to the girls and said, "The servants have prepared a boat, and you girls are interested. It is also fun to pick some lotus lotus seeds.”
As soon as I heard that I could go to the lake to play, the girls from the family were all interested, and they went out of the pavilion, and the four of them rode together in a boat. The boat left the shore of the lake like an arrow from the string and went to the depths of the lotus.
The actor's singing continued, and the girls from the family shuttled through the lotus bushes, stopping as they walked, and there were boat awnings to block the poisonous sun, and the refreshing lotus wind came out, and all of them had a great time: "The Su family is here. Qianhe Lake is really like a Jade Lake fairyland!"
Everyone spent about half an hour in the middle of the lake, watching flowers and picking lotus pods, and only landed in twos and threes. The cold sour plum soup and osmanthus mung bean soup on the shore were also prepared early. As soon as the girls came ashore, the servants of the Su family brought a few lotus petals of water for everyone to wash their hands. It can be said that they took care of everyone who participated in this time Party people.
After a hearty and wild lunch, the girls from the family got on the carriage and left, each maid still holding the girls' newly picked lotus and lotus pods in their arms.
After seeing off the classmates, Xiaozhu breathed a sigh of relief and sat down in the pavilion: "Don't come again in the future, you're exhausted." In order to receive this group of classmates, she has been preparing for this since yesterday. I have been busy preparing for that, but nothing has gone wrong.
After the promotion of the one-day trip to Qianhe Lake by the students of the writing class, the students of the Xianzi class and the elegant character class also found the little girl of the Su family in their class, so the young silver and young children who were still watching the lively Bao Ye repeated Xiaozhu's tiredness, but after this incident, the three little girls of the Su family were considered to have entered the social circle of the rich girls in Luohe Prefecture.
The gentleman in Erya Women's School heard that there was a Qianhe Lake in the Su family, so he discussed with the two deputy mountain chiefs and made Qianhe Lake a fixed place for sketching.
After this incident, Qianhe Lake has become a good place for people in Luohe Prefecture to go out for an outing and enjoy the scenery. At the Nancheng Gate of Luohe Prefecture, they took a boat down the river, and by the way, they admired the rural landscape on both sides of the river, and arrived at Houjiawansu. At Qianhe Lake, I disembarked the boat and walked into Qianhe Lake to enjoy the scenery.
However, in order not to damage the growth of the lotus pond, the Su family is only for pedestrians to enjoy the gazebo on the shore. As for the cruise, only the guests invited by the Su family are eligible. Although it is only a lotus appreciation on the shore, it is enough for the people of Luohe Prefecture to have a good place.
The reputation of Qianhe Lake is getting bigger and bigger. Until autumn comes, the lotus flowers are formed, and the tourists on the shore will not come again. The villagers who set up a stall to sell some food along the official road by the river when the tourists were long also went back to the autumn harvest, and Qianhe Lake, which had been lively all summer, fell into the excitement of the harvest again.
For the people of Luohe Prefecture, Qianhe Lake is just a good place for outing, but for the Su family, this pond is full of money!
With good weather and careful care by lotus farmers, this year's lotus flowers have bloomed one after another, and the lotus seeds have been harvested one after another. Ten acres of lotus ponds have collected about 1,800 catties of lotus seeds before the autumn harvest of lotus roots. Most of them are used for Su Jiaxiang to make the newly developed sugar lotus seeds. 50 catties for their own households, and 10 catties each to Liu's house for You He and Huang Sanye's house. The peeled lotus hearts were all sold to the traditional Chinese medicine clinic in Luohe Prefecture, and it was not wasted at all.
Those lotus seeds are also commonly used by wealthy families. Knowing that the Su family has a bumper lotus seed harvest this year, there are still many people who are thinking about buying some after the listing. They never thought that the Su family would wrap the nearly 2,000 catties of lotus seeds themselves. Now, I have tasted the lotus seeds of the Su family at the Su family banquet, and it is indeed much better than the ones sold in Luohezhou now, so many people secretly told their servants that they must remember to buy the lotus seeds of the Su family next year.
