Chapter 94: The New School of the Confucius Family

Some people want to live in the palace and think that it is heaven.

But there are people! But they fled from there, thinking that it was hell. If you are not careful, you will enter a situation from which you will never recover. It's true! Don't even know how you died?

All prosperity will be fleeting. All happiness is only temporary.

They grew up in the Lu Palace since they were children, and they had to live in it because they had no choice. Now! They became the wives of Fang Jishi and had a chance to escape. So! They don't want to live in the palace.

Albeit! Life in the palace is countless times better than outside, but they feel that if bad luck comes, there will be nothing in the blink of an eye.

Now the cornerstone of Fujun Fang is a celebrity around Lu Gong, and even Ji Pingzi and others are afraid of him. But! Once you lose power, or you are framed, you have nothing. Once the wicked gain power, they will make you lose everything.

Furthermore! Lu Gong (Lu Zhao Gong) was a young king who refused to admit defeat. He really treats him as a king, and he always can't get along with Ji Pingzi and others. I've been dying a few times, but he still doesn't give up.

He wanted to be a true king and take power back from the three great families.

As you can imagine! What he's doing is dangerous!

So! The two ladies were unwilling to live in the Lu Palace, and they encouraged their husbands to move out of the Lu Palace behind their backs and go outside to live a civilian life.

Knowing that it was the idea of Fang Jishi Fang's benefactor, they had already bought another house as a school. And! It was also repaired, and Confucius was very moved.

He didn't even know how to thank this benefactor who fell from the sky! It's true!

When he was at the lowest point in his life, it was Fang Bene's encouragement that made him confident. When he was most confused, it was Fang Benefactor who helped him and guided him. When he encountered difficulties in running a private school, it was him again! Contribute money, contribute and contribute people! Not only let the two sons fill the number, but also let the two wives be teachers.

It was Fang Bene's encouragement and confidence that gave him encouragement and confidence, saying that he was a future saint, and his determination was firm, and he demanded himself according to the standards of a saint.

After lunch, before the children arrived and went to class, Confucius and his two sisters-in-law went to the new school to check the situation on the spot.

Qi Guan's family didn't go, she wanted to take Kong Carp at home. Other than that! There should also be an adult in the school. There are also babies in the school who haven't gone home to eat and babies who have eaten and come to school.

If these children don't have adults watching, they don't know how to go crazy?

The two sisters-in-law didn't come either, but they just listened to what the guards said, and they were in the village and could be seen.

It is a large mansion with a large courtyard and many houses in the back. But! It's a thatched house, not a luxurious house with a stone and wood structure.

Obviously! It was a house where the rich lived in seclusion.

Before Lao Tzu's Taoism was formed, long ago, the wise men knew about seclusion. They hide among civilians, or hide in the mountains, living the life of ordinary people, hiding from disasters.

After Lao Tzu's Taoism became popular, seclusion became a consensus.

This courtyard, on the surface, looks good and is a large family. Not really! The interior is very exquisitely furnished.

The walls of the courtyard were not made of stone. But! A wall of earth was built, and the head of the wall was covered with thatch. The walls are exposed to the sun and rain. Because it is an earthen wall, so! The walls are strong and not afraid of the sun, rain and winter freeze.

The weeds in the courtyard have been cut off and are flat.

The foundation of the thatched house is very particular. There are several flights of steps, and there is a very spacious eaves on top.

The walls are also made of earth, which is the same as the wall. It's just that! Not as wide as the perimeter wall. In the walls, there are also timber frames.

When you first build a house, it is likely that you will first build a house frame and build the roof. Then fill in the blanks in the frame and build an earthen wall.

Just like the reinforced concrete frame of modern society, the frame of the house is built first, the main body is built, and then decorated.

Entering the house, there is first a large living room, which can even be compared to the palace. The living room occupies almost half of the house, flanked by the kitchen and rooms. The setting is the same as that of ordinary people, with a kitchen on one side and a room on the other.

The beams and columns of the house are all of fine timber and there is basically no damage. Only a few pieces of wood may have been used before it was too dry, infested with borers, and needed to be replaced.

The walls of the room have been carefully renovated. Right now! The craftsmen are whitewashing.

Above the roof, the craftsmen have been completely renovated. The rafters that need to be replaced, are all replaced. Whatever the main beam is waiting for, everything that needs to be replaced has been changed. The thatch on the roof was replaced with new ones.

In a word! The house is a good house, but it has fallen into disrepair and the roof is leaking, and it has become what it is now.

The floor inside the house is also very particular. The floor of the living room is paved with granite.

Granite is different from the bluestone slabs on the street pavement, but a kind of "warm stone", which gives people a gentle feeling. And the bluestone slab gives people the feeling of being cold.

Granite should be the high-end decoration of the upper class at that time.

The ground is flat, as if it were a whole piece.

There is no granite paving on the floor in the room. But! It is made of clay, which is very thick and smooth, which is equivalent to the cement floor of modern society.

There is a small courtyard at the back of the house, which has a wing room, a firewood room, a kitchen, a chicken coop, a toilet, etc., which should be a place for the next person to live.

At the back of the small courtyard, there is a wide field of land, about a dozen acres. And! It's all good land. Crops are planted on it, and the crops are growing well.

According to the villagers, this piece of land belongs to this family. When the family moved away, it became a town. Right now! The crops are planted by the villagers and are rented to the town.

Good land, others are willing to cultivate.

From the backyard, there is a stone path that leads into the crops.

Originally! There is also a pond and a well.

The pond is used to store water for irrigation, and the well is used for domestic draft. In the old days, the well had a roof on it. Right now! The roof has fallen into disuse. The ground around the well was paved with stone slabs. It's just that! No one used it for many years, and weeds grew in the cracks of the stones.

The craftsmen did not know Confucius and the two ladies, and when they saw that the three of them were well-dressed, they all looked at them with envy. When the villagers who were doing handymen saw that it was Confucius and two beautiful teachers, they all stepped forward to greet them attentively.

On the construction site! There is no one from the Fang family. Because! The repairs were contracted to the craftsmen.

So! The two ladies came to check, but there was no one to receive them. The craftsmen did not know that the two beautiful ladies were the owners of the house.

"What a place to retreat!" After reading the whole, Confucius couldn't help but sigh.

Back in the living room, Confucius sighed again.

This large living room can not only receive many people, but also serve as a school. In the winter, children can be taught indoors.

If it's a school? The courtyard also had to be roofed, just like his house.
