Yuxi called Han Gao over and said, "Really decide to return to Beijing tomorrow?" This icy and snowy road, so long, ordinary people can't bear it. Han Gao nodded: "I will leave early tomorrow morning."
Yuxi didn't stop him anymore, and said, "In that case, I don't force you to stay. Take a good rest today, and I have something to give you tomorrow morning."
Han Gao nodded and said, "Thank you Madam."
Yuxi took the booklet and read it for a long time, but there was nothing to get it out. The jade's words were too heavy for them to bring back, which would add to the burden. In the end, Yuxi didn't let Han Gao take anything, just prepared some dry food for them: "Don't hurry, safety is the most important thing."
Han Gao took a stack of letters and put it on him, and then left with four guards. All five of them rode on horses, without a carriage, and were relatively faster.
Two days later, it snowed again. Watching the heavy snow falling down, Yuxi said, "You said that there is nothing urgent in such a cold day. What did he do to rush back in such a hurry!"
After hearing this, Mama Qu said: "Perhaps the previous one was too tragic. It doesn't matter if they feel colder. The most important thing is safety." This cold robber won't come out to rob, but it's safe. .
Yuxi sighed and said, "It's too far." The distance of Yucheng thousands of miles from the capital is not convenient at all.
Approaching noon, Yu Zhi came back from the outside, entered the inner courtyard, and said something to Yuxi: "Madam, the Qin Mansion has dispatched a lot of people today and sent rice noodles and meat to those who had a difficult time. It’s so lively outside now."
Yuxi listened and said with a smile: "This is a good thing." The Qin Mansion is willing to give up money, and it is the family of the sergeant who has a difficult life to benefit.
Zi Jin said: "Madam, shall we send it too?" Zi Jin is a pity. If Madam listened to her, this would not allow Qin Mansion to be more beautiful.
Yuxi shook his head and said, "There is no need to follow suit."
Zijin didn't understand why Yuxi was unwilling to give them something to have a good year. Her wife is not such a stingy person!
Yuxi didn't explain to Zijin.
The Qin Mansion was generous this time, giving more than a thousand in total, each with five catties of white rice and white noodles, plus five catties of meat, some of which were mutton and some pork. The people who got this thing were too happy and grateful to the general's mansion.
Jing Bai's family didn't have it either. Not only did she have none, but none of the people who entered the school to study. Obviously, this was intentional. Jing Bai couldn't understand it, and asked, "Mother, many students in the school are talking about why Qin's mansion would send rice noodles to everyone, but the wife didn't send it? If the wife gave it too, they would be able to eat meat dumplings during the Chinese New Year."
After hearing this, Zeng's face changed slightly, and then he asked: "Then tell me, why does Madam send us rice noodles and meat?"
Jing Bai didn't think that it was wrong not to send rice noodles and other things. The things belonged to the wife. She wanted to send them and didn't want to send them. How could this kind of thing be forced.
The Zeng clan took Jing Bai and walked to the kang, and said, "Do you think five catties and one hundred meters of white noodles and meat can compare to you in the school?"
Jing Bai said hurriedly: "Of course it can't be compared." She not only eats ten catties of grain in a month, let alone can read and practice martial arts. Well, there is a new set of clothes.
The Zeng family touched Jing Bai's head and said earnestly: "It's just a few catties of white rice and white noodles plus a few catties of meat, and you will lose it after you eat it. But what you learn in the school can be used for a lifetime." The time has changed, Zeng is very pleased.
The Zeng clan and Jing Bai had a very difficult life. They hadn't seen minced meat in a month, but the Zeng clan was a strong woman. Both of her brothers wanted to help her, but seeing the eyes of the two sisters-in-laws were not eyes, nose, or nose, she refused the help of her brother and pulled the child up by herself. On weekdays, she didn't ask for help. But when she heard that Yuxi had opened a school and could read and write, she went to see her husband's colleagues before her death for the first time. It's not that Jingbai didn't meet the requirements, but there were too many people, and if he didn't find someone, he would be squeezed. Sending her daughter to the school and seeing her change every day, she was very pleased and very happy.
Jing Bai blushed a little: "Mother, I'm not blaming the lady for not giving us anything. I just think that if the lady brings rice noodles and meat over, you can have a good meat dumpling!"
Zeng is very pleased to hear this, but he still has to say what he should say, otherwise it is easy to go off the road: "Bo'er, don't get lost because of other people's two or three words. Left and right, stick to what you think is right."
Jing Bai nodded and said: "I see, mother." After finishing speaking, Jing Bai asked: "Mother, why did you say that the Qin family will give you rice noodles this year? I haven't sent them in previous years?"
The Zeng family felt that her daughter was older, and she did not hide something from her: "Madam founded the school and gained a good reputation. The Qin family couldn't let his wife specialize in beauty, so they would send rice noodles to everyone during the New Year, so that they would be grateful. "However, the person who sent them to the school left behind. Such behavior is really disgusting.
Jing Bai understood it for a moment: "The Qin Mansion did not want to give everyone a good year, but to get everyone's gratitude?"
Zeng nodded, touched Jing Bai's head, and said, "Also, the wife used her own dowry silver to start the school..." Zeng didn't say the rest. The child is still young and can't hide words, so there are some things I can't say.
The Qin family sent things like a raging fire. However, some people looked at it with enthusiasm, but the families whose children entered the school did not receive funding. The reason for their refusal is also very simple. If you have been helped, you have to leave the opportunity to a few individuals. The temptation of five catties of rice noodles and five catties of meat is too great, and many people have moved their minds.
On this day, more than a dozen children did not come to the school. The adults didn't come to call for sick leave. Hao Dazhuang was worried. While sending someone to tell Yuxi the news, he sent people to these children's homes to see if these children were at home. Hao Dazhuang was worried about this cold weather. It would be bad if the child had an accident on the road.
After hearing the news, Yuxi frowned and said, "Is there any child in the school who is sick? Infected the disease?" If something happens, it is impossible for more than a dozen children to have an accident at the same time. If it's in one place, that's all, these more than ten children are distributed in every corner!
Yu Zhi shook his head and said, "No! Moreover, these children are very good at practicing martial arts, and almost no one suffers from the cold. Even if a very small number of people suffer from the cold, they are all persuaded to go back." Zijin's temper was grumpy. , But Yu Zhi's temper is very gentle and patient. Therefore, all the children in the Women's School are handed over to Yu Zhi. There was no way, not only Yuxi, but also Yun Qing couldn't find a suitable girl to teach.
Yuxi was a little puzzled: "Then how come more than a dozen children are absent."
After an hour, Yuxi knew the reason. After hearing the reason why the child didn't go to school, Yuxi couldn't help but smile: "Just for five catties of white rice and white noodles and five catties of meat, the children are not allowed to go to school?" Wouldn't these people settle the accounts? There is a saying that half of the children eat poor old children, and most of the children in the school can eat very well. In addition, these children also practice martial arts in the afternoon, so they eat more, and even the youngest child can eat one in one day. There are too many grains, let alone the big ones.
Yu Zhigang felt unbelievable when he heard it, and relayed Hao Dazhuang’s words: "These people said that they have not had a good year in a long time. With the white rice, white noodles and meat from General Qin’s house, they can live a life. It’s been a prosperous year. Madam, it’s actually too difficult for these people at home. It’s not uncommon to have this idea."
After listening to Yu Zhi, Yuxi asked, "Then what do you think should be resolved?" Yuxi did not deny that these people had a poor life, nor did they blame anything. After all, it was their own choice.
Yu Zhi hesitated and said, "I don't think it would happen if we gave them some rice noodles and meat."
Mother Qu's face changed a bit when she heard this. Speaking of the experience in the palace, Mama Qu has actually cultivated the ability of Taishan collapse before changing the color, but today, because of Yu Zhi, she has broken the skill.
Yuxi laughed and asked, "Is it you who made the idea that Zijin wanted to give these children rice noodles?"
Yu Zhi shook his head and said, "No, Zijin wants to help these children." Zijin just feels distressed for those children, and since he has this personal experience, he wants to do his best.
Yuxi feels a little relieved. She doesn't want Zijin to be influenced by Yu Zhi and have no idea of her own: "You help me pass a message to Hao Dazhuang, this admission and withdrawal are only voluntary, don't embarrass them. However, since I have already dropped out, I will do it in the future. No entry allowed anymore."
When Yu Zhi heard this, he was a little anxious: "Madam, how can this be done?"
Yuxi looked at Yu Zhi and said, "Leave if you want, and return if you want. What is a school? Is it a vegetable market? There are no rules, and this unhealthy trend must be stopped."
Yu Zhi said: "But it is the adults who make the decision, not these children, these children are innocent." What the adults do, why should the children bear the consequences, and they are still such serious consequences.
Yuxi said blankly: "Then they can only blame their own fate for encountering such a greedy father and mother." If she guessed well, this should have been intentional by the people of the Qin Mansion. These people must have been instructed to take the children home for two days, and then let the children go to school after receiving the things, so that they won't make money. But once these children go back to school, other children will definitely have their minds fluctuating, and some people may be able to learn by that time. If she condoned this kind of behavior, the school atmosphere would be ruined, and such a school would not last long.
When Yu Zhi heard this, his words fell short.
Yuxi wouldn't be too lazy to talk to Yu Zhi, and he didn't care about anything. He was really a simple-minded guy with well-developed limbs: "Go!" Well, I have to say, Master Yang's education has failed! She didn't know the first two, but she knew Master Yang's level only by looking at her second brother, Yu Zhi, and Zijin. Fortunately, he didn't let him go to the school to teach the children, otherwise he would mislead the children.
ps: The last one is updated. I have been tired for these two days. I want to rest early. Good night, dears.
