Chapter 851: Brotherhood

Liu Laosi, the school's shifter, injured his leg during the war and couldn't be a soldier anymore, because he was Zhang Xin's old family for many years, he took care of him as a shifter, that is, the old man who locked Lin Daojing out of the door that night.

Tonight, Liu Laosi drank four taels of soju, with his experience in the past five years, he knew that it was midnight, so he took a wooden stick and knocked it, and while walking, he remembered the drinking with his old brother, as well as some interesting things during the watch, which was very funny.

Five years ago, when he first arrived, every night a young man would run back from the hot quilt of the little widow who sold tofu, and when he climbed the school wall, the little widow would chase after him and lift the lantern high to shine it, for fear that the young man would accidentally fall into the mud ditch inside the wall.

Liu Laosi walked around the wall, thinking that no one might climb the wall tonight, and when he looked up, there were exactly two shadows on the wall. He deliberately asked loudly, "Who?" ”

One of the black shadows said, "Lao Liu, it's me." ”

Liu Laosi heard that the voice was the student Zhang Fatzi, and said with a smile: "Young Master Zhang, you really scared me, I thought it was two thieves." ”

"The old rules, I'll give it to you tomorrow." The night also laughed.

As usual, there will be a bottle of soju for the hush money, but Liu Laosi doesn't care about them, but it was discovered by the new director of academic affairs, so it will be a big trouble.

Liu Laosi knew that the other one must be Zhang Shouzi, who was Young Master Zhang's uncle, and the two were uncles and nephews in terms of generation, like brothers in age, and friends in life. Speaking of temperament, the typical students of the new school are quite smart, do not like the four books, five classics and eight strands, will spend money, almost unanimously oppose the way of thinking of the family elders, and have almost the same unanimous preference for new things.

The Jinling Boys' School has also inevitably changed, and now it has been separated from the national primary and secondary schools, and the location has been moved to other places, regardless of status, and there is still no charge for any fees, and even a free lunch is provided. And here it is at the request of high society. It became a private high school and a private high school.

As soon as the word senior came out, it immediately seemed high-end, and the ancient people were really easy to deceive. Most of those who had the opportunity to enroll in secondary schools were the children of government families and the sons and nephews of wealthy merchants and landlords, who had high tuition fees and often received large donations, all of which were used to subsidize civilian schools.

This is an era of clear classes, and Xu Hao also took advantage of the trend. In the past two years, in addition to the establishment of some sports groups, speech groups, and literary and art groups, the school has also given birth to two very ridiculous organizations. One is called the Gentlemen's Association, and the other is called the Brotherhood.

Among them, the gentleman will pay attention to wearing clothes and hats to develop the qualifications of everyone's sons. Although the school stipulates that students must wear uniforms both inside and outside the school, this is a school rule that must be adhered to, which makes these gentlemen have a heroic and useless sigh, so they are ingenious in terms of shoes and socks. In addition, all kinds of small bits and pieces, such as watches, pocket watches, brushes and pencils, and pancreas for washing face. Towels, envelopes and letterheads, all of them are chic and exquisite.

Most of the members are traditional white-faced scholars, who are elegant, cowardly, intelligent, vain, amorous, and not very good at new-style homework. However, I read a lot of ancient books and miscellaneous books, and my knowledge is not deep, but the common sense insights are far from being comparable to those of today's readers.

This group is very similar to the Freemasons in the United States in various colleges and universities, and the members come from noble families. The resources you have are almost unlimited, and you don't want to get mixed in if you don't have the qualifications to break your head, which is very intriguing. Xu Ye was the first president of the Gentlemen's Association.

As for the Brotherhood, most of them are the sons and daughters of powerful soldiers, and as the name suggests, you can know their ordinary behavior. Picking quarrels and fighting is their main job, these students do not fight in their own school, but often fight on behalf of the school outside, especially like to teach the students of the Guozijian who are powerless, and make the Guozijian University promote the practice of martial arts, otherwise they will not even be able to get out of the school gate.

In short, the students in these two organizations have caused a lot of trouble to the school, which is a headache for Zhang Xin. Xu Hao observed with great interest with the mentality of not supporting or stopping it, and found that it also brought a certain reputation to the school.

The prestige of the Gentlemen's Association and the Brotherhood represented a society, a class, and not only did the court maintain a silent attitude towards it, but it also attracted a large number of children from wealthy families, making the school's funds more and more sufficient, and the number of students who came to take the examination every year often exceeded the fixed number by more than ten times.

The brothers of the Zhang family are all children of powerful people, and happy events are the common characteristics of these sons and brothers.

Soon after being admitted to the school, the two joined two organizations respectively, the fat man likes to be vassal, the thin man likes to fight and make trouble, and their future seems to be doomed.

With the opening of the sea ban and the development of new schools, coupled with the promotion of magazines, books and newspapers, it seems that new education has become a fashion for all young people.

Now Xu Hao's biggest headache is that many students strongly demand that the school open the ban on girls and ask for co-education, they have just developed physically and mentally to feel special surprise and physical temptation for women, and the school does not let them talk about love, so they are naturally deeply dissatisfied.

Zhang Xin resolutely refused to give in to this, saying that women should study, and there were other girls' schools to enter, which undoubtedly won the support of the imperial court, so the students could not oppose it if they wanted to.

Interestingly, because of Zhang Xin's stubbornness, he has been supported by most people in society, after all, this is an ancient time where traditional concepts are deeply rooted, Xu Hao feels that if he insists on it, there will be a large number of boys' and girls' schools in the future, and of course there will be mixed schools, which is the same as the later generations of the Wa Kingdom, South Korea, and Taiwan, because there is no Taizu to break the feudalism.

In the Yongle era and the Xuande era, the cabinet was famous for being virtuous and compromising in politics, and there was no too strong cabinet chief, which was also the time when the Eight Imperial Examinations were implemented for less than 40 years, and there were no eight gentry all over the world, especially for the north, the proportion of scholars and officials was too small.

One of the costs of Xu Hao's investment in education is not to participate in the power struggle of the court, the second is not to participate in the control of military power, and the third is to help suppress the eunuchs in the inner court.

Xie Jin, Yang Shiqi and others have never been under the control of Xu Hao's instructions and any conspiracy methods, and they are completely free ministers, so most of the officials in the DPRK and China admire Xu Hao's personality. At the same time, Xu Hao has a tough stance and ruthless methods, no matter who buys it, he is helpless to be such a national-level bachelor who has everything, but has no desires and no desires.

Let's say that Su Suxin has no face in the Xu family, and she stays at home all day long, washing her face with tears.

Zhang Hui's wife, Da Su, is Su Suxin's cousin. The concubine Wang Xia is her cousin, who married Zhang Hui in April this year, and when she heard what happened to Su Suxin, she sent someone over to pick her up.

When the sisters met, Su Suxin naturally cried and told her bitterness, and the Da Su family was not doing well, and the young and vigorous Wang Xia was very angry and said: "Sister, the matter has come to this, why not remarry someone else?" ”

Da Su frowned and said, "Confused." How could the Xu family allow her to remarry? If you want me to say, why do you interfere with men? He can do whatever he likes, and you will be your young grandmother. ”

Xu Suxin sighed: "I'm a person like a death row prisoner, probably I can see it, I can live a day." ”

Wang Xiaxiu raised her eyebrows, sneered and didn't say anything. It happened that the third day was the day when a friend of Zhang Hui married his daughter-in-law, Xu Wen took Su Suxin to congratulate him, and saw Zhang Hui Although he didn't react on the surface, he lost money behind his back, saying that he was drunk and talked a lot. Zhang Hui also took the opportunity to say that he was drunk and collided, and the two reconciled.

After eating a meal, everyone wanted to accompany the groom to greet the relatives, Xu Wen smiled and said, "You guys go." I'm going to identify the new house myself. ”

The new house is in the inner house, and he sneaks in for a long time, and the people under him know his identity, so it is difficult to stop him.

Halfway through, I saw a maid coming over. Unexpectedly acquaintance, Xu Wen asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

"The slave family came with the lady." The maid hurriedly replied.

"Oh." Xu Wen smiled: "Grandma Su is in the garden, you lead me over to recognize it." ”

How dare the maid not comply? Then he turned and led him all the way. When passing through an arched bridge, Xu Wen saw a beautiful woman from a distance, wearing a white spun silk spring shirt, covered with Yuanqing Lake green armor, waist Yuan color Luo skirt, a cloud and heavy temples, although blindly plain makeup, the more soft and jade, the style is beautiful.

Xu Wen hurriedly asked the girl, "Which one is this?" ”

The maid said, "It's my second grandmother." ”

Xu Wenxin said that no wonder Zhang Hui is now self-cultivation, it turns out that there is such a stunning beauty to be his concubine, why didn't I take the lead? smiled and stepped forward and said, "Sister, brother-in-law has given you a salute." ”

Wang Xia didn't expect a man to arrive here, so she was taken aback and hurriedly returned the salute.

Xu Wen said: "The day before yesterday, I had some awkward trouble with Lao Zhang, because I looked at my sister's face, I didn't care about him, does my sister know?" ”

Wang Xia knew that this was Xu Wen, and she was furious in her heart, seeing that he was looking back and forth on her body with a pair of thief eyes, and she spoke with a three-point evil spirit, but she chuckled with disgust and joy: "My sister is grateful, but there is nothing to repay." ”

Xu Wen was overjoyed when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Since my sister knows how to repay her kindness, don't spend money, it's okay to stick to anything, doesn't my sister understand?" ”

"My little sister has nothing but this body, and I really don't know how to repay it." Wang Xia laughed.

Xu Wen smiled and walked further, stretched out his hand and pointed to her skirt, and said, "What is not to repay the favor, only ask for one thing on my sister's body." ”

Looks like she wants to do it immediately, Wang Xia blushed and said in a low voice: "The blue sky and the white sun, many girls look at it, what are the rules?" Don't be anxious, if you really have this heart, you can wait in the crane pavilion on the third watch tonight, don't say you don't know where the crane pavilion is? ”

Xu Wen was overjoyed and said: "Obey Taiwan's orders, but you can't lose your trust." Raised his hand and squeezed Wang Xia's little hand hard, "Why did my sister bring a silver bracelet?" ”

Wang Xia turned around and walked away, turned around and smiled: "I am not trustworthy, believe it or not." "Raised his feet and left, and said in his heart as he walked, saying that this wicked man deceived my husband and insulted my sister, and dared to bully me? This time it hit my hand, and he must not be spared.

walked into the house, concealed it from Xu Suxin, and told the Da Su clan about being molested by Xu Wen and the words that he needed revenge.

Su Shi said: "You are a woman, don't be bold, this person is not easy to mess with." ”

"What am I afraid of him?" Wang Xia was not afraid at all, "Whoever made him too deceitful, I will tease him at night, so as to vent my evil anger for Sister Suxin." ”

Da Su smiled: "Depending on how you play, I'm the most afraid, when I don't know." (To be continued......)
