In a few months, all the staff of the Kaifeng government were in place, and the teachers were a few hired staff and officials from the Kaifeng government.
Thirteen-year-old Zheng Dang is one of them.
Just by looking at the name, you can see that Zheng Dang belongs to the Zheng family. He is the son of Uncle Zheng Ling. He has been very intelligent since he was a child. At only thirteen years old, he is enough to go to university.
When choosing a school, Zheng Dang's parents originally wanted to send him to Taixue, where the conditions were better after all.
Zheng Hao had no opinion on this matter, but after learning that Kaifeng House would open a school, he proposed that Zheng Yi go to Kaifeng House to go to school.
Zheng Dang himself was a little reluctant, and he was ready to go to Taixue.
This Kaifeng school has just been established and is recruiting the first batch of students. How can it compare to Taixue
However, Zheng Hao said very seriously that he believed that Kaifeng Fuxue was not inferior to Taixue. First of all, a large part of the teachers of Kaifeng Fuxue would be officials with practical experience in government. Say, it helps a lot.
Secondly, there is no need to worry about academics. In addition to these officials, Kaifeng House will hire great scholars to give lectures from time to time. Zheng Li learned from Zheng Ling that Yun Yanhui had already been stalking him, and it was decided that many Hanlin would go to classes in the future.
The teaching method that Kaifeng Prefectural School will adopt is also very desirable in Zheng Li's view. This method has not yet been officially launched in Taixue.
Under Zheng Yan's reasoning and facts, Zheng Yan's parents had no choice but to agree to send him to Kaifeng University to try it out, and then transfer to another school.
Zheng Xing's father sent Zheng Xing to the gate of the school, and he was not allowed to enter here, not only Zheng Xing's father, but no one could bring him.
The people from Kaifeng Mansion explained, "One is that our place is small, not only today, but also in the future, we can only allow students to live in and out of the house, and secondly, the mansion respect wants to cultivate students' ability to be self-reliant."
Zheng Dang complained for a while, and had to give his luggage to Zheng Dang and let him go in by himself.
Zheng Dang was particularly tender among a group of 16-year-old students. He and several other students were led by the tractor to report and check which school he lived in.
On the way, Zheng Dang heard someone say, "By the way, have you heard about it? In the school, all meals are provided by the public chef of Kaifeng."
"Wow, Xiongtai, how did you know, are you a local?"
"Yeah, my neighbor's uncle is in Kaifeng Mansion!"
"My God, can we actually eat in the Kaifeng Mansion canteen? This is much happier than going to Taixue!"
—The last man is obviously the one who eats it.
Zheng Dang's mood was a little subtle, because he knew that this Kaifeng mansion cafeteria had something to do with one of his relatives, but he didn't eat it because of it, and even avoided it a few years ago. In his house, a cousin also ate it.
After checking in, Zheng Dang looked at his dormitory number and went over with the key.
After dragging his luggage to the dormitory, Zheng Dang was already out of breath. He opened the door and saw that there was no one inside, but the decoration shocked him.
The beds here are actually double-layered and numbered.
Zheng Xian's eyes widened, he actually wanted to sleep on top of each other? He went to school and went to many academies to ask for advice, but he had never seen such a bed!
Although there are guardrails on the upper bunk, why does Zheng Song still find it inconvenient? If you have to get up at night, don't you have to climb the ladder to get down
If such a bed was placed at home, Zheng Dang would still find it interesting. After all, he had never seen it before, but this was in the school dormitory, which made people feel uneasy.
More importantly, the school only allows students to come in by themselves, so wouldn't they have to climb up and make beds by themselves
Zheng Xian was quite sad, but he still gritted his teeth, took out his bedding, and lifted it to the upper bunk.
In addition to studying, Zheng Dang would not have entered university at the age of thirteen, so his physical strength was very average. The quilt was very heavy, and when Zheng Song stood on tiptoe and stuffed it up, he felt that it was shaky, as if it was about to fall over.
Oops. Zheng Song thought to himself.
At this moment, a hand reached out, supported Zheng Song's quilt, pushed it on top, and pushed it onto the bed.
As soon as Zheng Song's arms were relaxed, his heart was also relieved. Thinking that the person who helped should be a classmate, he turned around and took a step back. He was about to thank him, but saw the person standing behind him with a familiar face.
Zheng Song was stunned for a moment.
This person is the son of his own sister, Aon's cousin, who is also a legend in their family. At that time, A Weng's sister eloped away from home, without admitting it to the family, gave birth to this cousin outside, and raised it alone.
Since he was a child, Zheng Dang has indirectly witnessed the growth of this cousin. At first, his cousin had a close relationship with him, saying that he worked in Daxiangguo Temple and hoped that Aon would recognize each other, but it was unsuccessful, because Aon was unwilling to recognize him, and neither was his cousin.
Zheng Dang's parents privately sighed that this child is very smart, but it seems that he can only mingle in the market.
Who knows, Zheng Dang later heard that he went to Kaifeng Mansion and made a lot of achievements in Kaifeng Mansion. These were all concerned by A Weng. Zheng Dang often went to A Weng to study, and he knew it.
Later, it was out of control, and he was transferred to several yamen to do things, and it was very beautiful. In the end, he even accomplished a thing that had troubled the official family for a long time, and it was a success beyond everyone's expectations.
So step by step, how can you not shock the Zheng family who know his growth trajectory best? This year, Aon swallowed his words and insisted on recognizing his cousin.
It was also during the few days when his uncle came back to live that Zheng Dang met him, and he didn't say a few words. He felt a little embarrassed in his heart, or most of the Zheng family were a little embarrassed.
Now, this uncle appeared in front of him—yes, as Aon had said, the uncle also assisted in taking care of the school.
Yun Yanhui looked at the half-year-old child who had just reached her chest, with a dazed expression on her face, and smiled: "Brother, right? Do you remember me? We met, I am Yun Yanhui. I heard from my uncle that you want to Come here for school, I'll say hello to you, if you need anything, you can come to me, I should stay in the Academic Affairs Office from time to time in the future."
He said, and rubbed Zheng Dang's head.
Zheng Xun blushed inexplicably and shouted in a low voice, "Well, cousin."
The cousin he had imagined for so many years was a very rebellious person. The last time he saw him at home, he only saw Li, but now the two meet in private, but they think he is a very gentle and amiable person. No wonder My cousin went to find him to play with.
Yun Yan looked back at Zheng Dang and was shy, she was quite fond of it, smiled slightly, and asked, "Don't be polite, self-reliance is important in the school. But you are only thirteen years old, and there are inevitably some small problems in life and study. When you encounter something that cannot be solved, don't be arrogant, just come to me. By the way, you are required to choose a subject before entering the school. If you live here, you should choose Jingyizhai. What is it?"
Hearing this, Zheng Song felt very warm in his heart, "I majored in scriptures, and I also chose astronomy and arithmetic."
"Well, not bad." Yun Yan patted him on the shoulder back, "I'll have someone adjust it later and put you in the bottom bunk." Zheng Song has not yet developed well and is relatively short, the top bunk is really for him. Some are tall, even if they are not relatives, the school has to take care of the children when they find out.
Zheng Xun's original dissatisfaction with this place disappeared in a flash, and he nodded vigorously.
Yun Yan went back to accompany him to clean up the dormitory again. The dormitory here is equipped with sanitary tools. He swept the floor, mopped it clean, and wiped the bed again.
Before Yun Yanhui said he wanted to do hygiene, Zheng Xian wanted to say that he would not, but when he saw Yun Yanhui rolling up his sleeves and working, he was embarrassed to say it, so he followed Yun Yanhui's posture. up.
When cleaning the bed and windows, it was Yun Yan who went back to clean the top. He cleaned the bottom, and gradually he became proficient in his movements. Although he was tired, Zheng Yan was very unwilling to be looked down upon by Yun Yan, so he gritted his teeth and persevered.
After cleaning the dormitory like this, Zheng Dang also felt a sense of accomplishment.
…
After cleaning, Yun Yanhui still stayed here, accompany Zheng Xun to pack his luggage, and when his classmates in the dormitory came, he discussed with one of the students who slept in the lower bunk to change it. The Office of Academic Affairs also revised what was on the register.
Seeing that Zheng Xun was young, the man naturally agreed, and thought that because Zheng Xun was young, he had the privilege, and he could even ask his parents to accompany him.
Yun Yanhui only smiled and said that he was working here, so he stopped by to visit relatives.
When everyone heard that he was working here, they would not think of him as an academic officer, but naturally they thought he was a support staff, so they asked questions, such as the level of the professor Nazhai they were assigned to, and whether the meals were really provided by the cafeteria of Kaifeng Mansion. .
Regarding the latter question, Yun Yan replied, "It's true, of course. It will be available from the school day, and registration will not be open today. However, if you are interested, I can show you in advance."
All the students were boiling, and asked Yun Yan back if he was working in the kitchen.
Yun Yan smiled back and said, "That's right."
Everyone, can this be fake? So they were all ready to go have a big meal.
Seeing that Yun Yanhui was recognized as a kitchen worker, Zheng Dang didn't defend himself, and wanted to explain, but seeing that Yun Yanhui didn't care at all, he was relieved slowly, and just kept following behind him.
Yun Yanhui took these students to the cafeteria for a meal. The people in the cafeteria of this school were transferred from Kaifeng mansion, and the ingredients will be uniformly dispatched by the public chef. This is equivalent to a cent Department.
Although the door was closed today, everyone was tidying up the place. Yunyan brought people to eat. Naturally, they opened the back door and got a table of dishes.
Zheng Xing's roommates all said that they were for Zheng Xing's blessing when they ate. Seeing that he was still young, they all used tea instead of wine and toasted him.
Yun Yan looked back to see that there was nothing difficult to get along with Zheng Mao's roommates, so he calmed down. He was entrusted by Zheng Li to take care of Zheng Mao, and he was entrusted by others to be loyal. Besides, this child is indeed very interesting.
After the meal, Yun Yanhui took them around the school. Everyone was very interested in the playground and classroom.
As for the classroom, there is a sign outside, indicating which fast is it. It is bright and dignified with green plants inside, the podium is purposely raised, and a particularly large blackboard is fixed to the wall. The seats below are neat and tidy, and there are about thirty people in a fasting.
Yun Yanhui seems to have mentioned it unintentionally. In the future, each zhai will select a zhai head from the students to help manage the students' study and living conditions, organize students' activities and so on.
As soon as someone heard it, they immediately became very interested. The leading goose with the official title? It looks so cool!
Zheng Dang raised his head and looked at Yun Yanhui, and his face was pinched, "Are you interested in running for Zhaichang?"
Zheng Dang's face turned red from being pinched, but before he changed his voice, he said crisply, "I want to be a vegetarian!"
Everyone just thought it was funny when they saw his childish appearance.
Yun Yanhui said seriously: "Then you have to work hard. The head of the Zhai must be able to convince the public in all aspects, and organize and care for the students of the whole Zhai to study and live. It is very hard."
"I can do it!" Zheng Song held his chest out, quite ambitious.
- In the future, Yun Yanhui really learned that because of Zheng Dang's perseverance, he did not back down in the face of various new regulations in the school, and he studied very hard. Therefore, he actually became a vegetarian in Shujing Yizhai. long.
And because he was the youngest in the whole school, Shujing Yizhai, and even the students of other zhais, nicknamed Zheng Dang "Xiaozhaichang".
"That's good." Yun Yan took them back to the playground again. Everyone still doesn't know that this place is for morning exercise, and there are various exercise equipment. In the equipment room next to the playground, there are also a lot of cuju balls, as well as a lot of farm tools.
Someone asked if this was for students studying farmland, but Yun Yanhui smiled mysteriously, "You will know after school starts."
Everyone didn't care, and some people were looking forward to going to Kaifeng House to take a practical class in the future.
Yun Yan smiled back, "Don't worry, there will be this opportunity as soon as school starts."
"What? Is it there as soon as school starts? God, I thought we would have to wait at least two years before we could get a chance!"
"That's great! It would be of great benefit to us if we could see how we actually deal with official duties. It was precisely because of this that my grandfather agreed to allow me to come to the university to study."
Zheng Xun looked at Yun Yanhui's smile, but always wondered if there was something different from his classmates, the practice class in Kaifeng House? Zheng Dang always felt that he had caught some key points, but he couldn't tell.
It wasn't until the school started, about the fourth day, when all the excited students were dragged to the vegetable field in Kaifeng Mansion, and each handed out a hoe or a bucket, and the students reacted in disbelief.
"So, the practice class is just such a practice...?"
Does the so-called guarantee of employment mean that if you don’t become an official, you will at least farm the land
The students were in a trance and could not help but doubt their life. From the beginning of the new teaching, the accommodation conditions to the practical courses, they were very shocked.
There is no school in this world that gives students practical lessons like this. Are they really here to go to school? Did they really go to the official school? Will you go to a fake school? !
Zheng Xun even saw his cousin and showed a treacherous smile on the side.
=_=! Isn't that right, one of his uncle's errands in Kaifeng Mansion was to mobilize all the officials, big and small, to grow vegetables and save money!
