The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 237: Changes in the Salesian Bureau (middle)

Views:

Zheng Ling only felt a chill in his heart, not to mention whether this method could be successfully operated, he only had to think about the picture, and it was enough.

A family of three, with the oldest son, is this like saying

Not to mention, the mother is still Zhao Yunchu...

In order to fight against Zheng Ling, Zhao Yunchu really fought hard, but seeing Zheng Ling's ugly face, he was still very proud, as if he had mastered some Zheng Ling's death point.

At this time, Yun Yanhui put down the child and turned around, but seeing a strange atmosphere flowing between Zheng Ling and Zhao Yunchu, she couldn't help but say in surprise: "I was away just now, and you guys quarreled again?"

Yun Yan replied calmly and persuaded them: "How old are you, it's just a matter of arguing when you were young, and you're still arguing when you're so old. Isn't this a joke for outsiders? They're all family!"

Zhao Yunchu: "..."

Zheng Ling: "..."

Although Yun Yan had no deep meaning in returning to that "family", the two of them felt guilty and naturally understood different meanings.

Yun Yan looked back at them and didn't speak, and pointed to the weighing weight who was supporting Ah Huan for the physical examination and said, "Look at them, they have grown up together since childhood, they help each other, their relationship is so good, not to mention that you still have relatives. of… "

From his own point of view, he is naturally related, but this will only make Zhao Yunchu and Zheng Ling more restless.

"Don't talk about it," Zheng Ling said sadly, "It's all my fault, okay, I'll go collect the wind."

Looking at Zheng Ling's dejected back, Yun Yan asked Zhao Yunchu in surprise, "It's rare to see you win so much, so maybe it's because your eloquence has grown recently?"

Zhao Yunchu smiled sweetly, "After staying with Brother Yan for a long time, I naturally have to grow a little bit."

When Zheng Ling heard this, he didn't know what to expect.

In the afternoon, all the children of the Salesian Bureau had their bodies checked and their measurements taken. This order is relatively large. In order to be able to make it as soon as possible as required by the Salesian Bureau, the tailor shop also invites familiar colleagues to complete it together.

Zheng Ling also finished collecting the wind and went back full of harvest.

Later, when he recalled it, Lian Lung thought that since Mr. Yun really came, the Salesian Bureau had changed with each passing day. When they ordered meat to eat, they not only had meat to eat, but also new clothes. When they were looking forward to new clothes, not only did the tailor come to measure the body, but also the doctor came to check the pulse.

On the second day, the Salesian Bureau welcomed three more gentlemen from the Hanlin Academy.

The younger children didn't understand the concept of the Hanlin Academy, and they only heard that they were from college students, and the older ones were more sensible, so they were even more surprised.

In the past, only a few children in the Salesian Bureau had the opportunity to go to primary schools to be side students, and naturally they chose some smart and gifted children.

Now, they learned that every other day, a gentleman came to the class, and everyone could attend the class.

He was both happy and unbelievable. He went to Mr. Yun, held Mr. Yun's hand and said, "Mother-in-law said that I am so stupid that I will definitely not be able to go to elementary school in the future. Can Mr. Hanlin want me?"

"The Master said: There is no distinction if there is teaching." Mr. Yun said such a sentence.

Li Mong didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, but Mr. Yun was going to be busy, so after the class, Mr. Hanlin - no, Mr. corrected, you can't call him that, just call him Mr. Li. After Mr. Li introduced himself, he asked everyone if they had any questions.

At this time, Li Mong raised his hand and asked, what does it mean to teach without class

Mr. Li was stunned and told them that this sentence was said by a saint, which means that no matter what kind of person, he can be educated, of course, including the scales. Moreover, this can make him change, become smarter and smarter, and finally, be no worse than others.

In Lian Mong's mind, this sentence was very amazing and he couldn't understand it, but the meaning was explained by Mr. Li, which made him feel very good. The sage is very powerful, Mr. Yun is very powerful, and Mr. Li is also very powerful, so he can actually know such a thing.

Led by Mr. Li, the children of Lian Mong were all under the age of ten. They held the opening ceremony, worshipped Master Confucius, and then started lecturing.

Everyone is very serious, not only because this is the first time to attend class, it is very fresh, although they are young, but they vaguely know that reading is very important, and this may be an opportunity to change their fate.

Some of this knowledge comes from the mouths of others, but more is the impression left by witnessing with one's own eyes, and it does not need any reason to reflect.

The eldest children of the Salesian Bureau, some read books, some did not read. After they left the Salesian Bureau, they would occasionally come back to see, or someone reported their recent situation. Those brothers and sisters who have read books are always in a much better position than those who have not read books.

Many people know that there was an older brother who went out from the Salesian Bureau. He was sent to primary school to study. Later, he succeeded and was admitted to the university. Later, he became a teacher of an academy. wife.

The fate of this brother is the envy of many children in the Salesian Bureau. This is the best future they know.

And hard work usually starts from the Salesian Bureau. Only a few people can go to primary school, and even fewer of these people can have the next development.

But you can't read, you can do a lot of things if you can read, you have more choices than you can't read, and the types of jobs are more decent.

Now there is such an opportunity of "teaching without discrimination", how can they not cherish it.

After another five days, the tailor's shop delivered all the new clothes, and everyone gathered around, waiting in line to call their names and receive the new clothes.

Everyone's new clothes look the same. Except for the different sizes, they are very beautiful. They are reddish-brown, with edges, and some characters are embroidered on the chest, but many people can't understand them.

The older children who can read say that everyone's name is written on it, as well as the words of the Salesian Bureau.

After he got his clothes, Li Mong happily touched them again, tried them on again, and then shouted, "No, it's wrong, it's not my clothes!"

"Why not?" Xiao Yan'er said, "Brother Li Mong, look at how well you dress."

"It doesn't matter how well it fits. Look, it's not my name written here." He pointed to the words on his chest and said, "We have two words, but three words are written here!"

"Yeah!" Xiao Yan'er saw it, and it really was like this, "Brother Li Mong is so smart, this is really not your clothes."

Yun Yanhui was helping to distribute the clothes over there, and when he heard the weighing mound shouting from here, he came over to take a look, "Let me see, did I send it wrong?" He read out the name on the clothes, "Chen Daquan... Chen Daquan Who is it? Is this Chen Daquan's clothes?"

"Look, I said, this is Chen Daquan's clothes..." He said happily, suddenly feeling that something was wrong and scratching his head, "Wait, Chen Daquan... It seems to be my name."

"..." Yun Yan couldn't help laughing and laughing back, "Liang Mong, you have to think about it before you remember that this is your name?"

Li Mong lowered his head, his face was red, he felt very ashamed.

The surrounding children all laughed, "Liang Mong doesn't even remember his own name!"

"I remember, I remember!" Li Mound whispered, "Oh, I just forgot for a while!"

Li Mong grabbed the front of his clothes, stared at the three square words, and decided to write down these words so that he would not mistake them in the future.

For many people, this was also the first time they saw how their name was written, and they were quite curious. They even took a branch and scratched and copied it on the ground.

Seeing this scene of laughter and laughter, Lin Yi was very emotional, "These are good children, how easy to satisfy."

"Yeah." Yun Yan recalled, because they had too little, but soon, Zheng Ling's public service advertisements could be published.

At the end of the month, the orphan-themed comic strip by Zheng Ling's team was published as scheduled, and it really caused a great response.

Although there are no "Three Kingdoms" comic strips in this issue, there are not many complaints, and even if there are, they will soon disappear.

This comic strip corresponds to a very broad social phenomenon. People cannot afford to raise children, but they have no choice but to abandon them.

In the comic strip, an old tangram that ordinary people cannot use is donated to become the most precious treasure of the children of the Salesian Bureau. Children who are fortunate enough to go to school, when they come back, hand over the words they have learned to others, and use branches as pens and soil as paper...

Through the platform of "Tokyo Daily" and through the presentation of comic strips, the Salesian Bureau appealed to the citizens of Tokyo, hoping that they could donate the things they did not need to the Salesian Bureau, such as food and clothing.

Families with conditions are also welcome to adopt these children, most of them are healthy.

Inspired by the comic strip, many people immediately rummaged through the unused old things at home and sent them to the Salesian Bureau.

There were even many palace officials who brought a beautiful elephant-shaped slide and put it on the open space.

Everyone around, almost all the children, didn't even know what it was. Whether it is an elephant or a slide, they have never seen it, and they have no idea what it is used for.

Yun Yan explained back to them: "This is given to you by Her Royal Highness the Eighth Princess. This is called a slide. It was originally Her Royal Highness's favorite toy."

Toy

The children thought it was incredible, is the toy still so big? The most popular among them is the swing, but compared to this, it's really nothing.

"It's made from the shape of an animal called an elephant. You should have heard of it, right? Look, this long one is the trunk of an elephant, the eyes are here, and this is the tail." Yun Yan explained back.

After Yun Yan said this, many people suddenly realized that they had heard of it, but because they had never seen it, they could not correspond to this delicate object for a while.

Yun Yanhui explained the gameplay again, helped them up one by one, and then slid down.

At the beginning, everyone heard that this was the princess' old thing, and they were a little timid, but after all, they were children, and they gradually relaxed. They felt the fun, and they slipped down with a smile and continued to line up, round after round.

And when it was time for dinner, something that made them even happier appeared.

Because there are many donations, commoners donated old things, rich businessmen and nobles not only donated old things, but also donated money and grain, so meat is added at night. Nursing women are still handing out toys to them.

Due to the deep impression of the comics, the Salesian Bureau received the most toys, such as tangrams, clay dolls, chess pieces... everything, enough to send everyone to everyone, and more!

The whole cafeteria was full of noise. Fortunately, it was only after the meal. Otherwise, they must not have the heart to eat. At this moment, they are all seeing each other what they have learned and making an appointment to play together.

Standing aside and looking over, these children were uniformly dressed in reddish-brown clothes, all of which fit well. After these days of broth and whether it was a snack, their faces were all fuller.

At Yun Yanhui's request, they also paid more attention to cleanliness, washing their faces and hands clean. After my husband's teaching, I have also made great progress in etiquette. After a meal, my lips are clean.

Now holding the toy, even more cheerful smile.

It's only been less than a month, but it is very different from before, revealing a kind of vigor.

A woman who had been in the Salesian Bureau for five years whispered to her companions, "This is not like an orphan. It looks better than my family."

"That's right," her companion nodded in agreement, "I think the gentlemen from the Hanlin Academy are capable. They used to be very skinny, and they teach me, and now they will salute me when they see me!"

"That's for sure. There are also meals of broth. If you eat well, of course you will study hard."

"Remember, in the past when people came for adoption, they were always picky and disliked. Now if someone came, they would have to be distracted. You said that everyone was clean, and they read and taught etiquette. If it wasn't for me I have a child, and I want to adopt it too!"

The two women were talking, and their eyes fell to the corner of the cafeteria. There were a group of teenagers over ten years old, most of them were thirteen or fourteen years old.

"Orphans stay in the Salesian Bureau until they are eighteen at most. I really don't know if they are lucky or unfortunate."

Someone came to adopt, and they would definitely be willing to adopt a younger child, so that they could have a close relationship. As for these half-sized children, the situation is more embarrassing.

If they are younger, the chances of being adopted will increase a lot when they catch up with this good time. But now, after all, I have caught up with the tail, and I can read for a while, and then go out to find work, which is better than a completely illiterate one.

However, being alone is not much better. The Salesian Bureau can introduce work, but it is also limited.

In theory, the children of the Salesian Bureau are only raised until they are fifteen years old, and from fifteen to eighteen years old, these years are considered a period of adaptation for them. They can still live here if they want, but they have to pay. , it's cheaper than living outside, but it costs a few bucks.

At the age of 18, they are completely independent. At the age of 15, they have to start making money. After some children go out, they can't make money, and they follow the hooligans.

—Speaking of which, the Kaifeng House has been purged recently, and there is no future for being a hooligan.
