Good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles.

The illness of Yang Hua'an, the eldest house of the old Yang family, soon spread in the village.

Except for Lao Yang's family and a few relatives who knew the inside story, no one else knew what illness Yang Hua'an had.

I only knew that after he ran to the medical centers in the town and the county seat for two consecutive days, the medical centers in both places did not accept them, and he went home to raise them.

It must be a strange disease!

At the end of the village, everyone is talking about this.

The twelfth day of the first month.

Li Zheng brought a few village elders to Yang Ruoqing to talk about the opening of the school.

Yang Ruoqing suddenly realized that everyone had been paying attention to Yang Hua'an in the past few days, and they had neglected the affairs of the school.

After sending Li Zheng and a few village elders away, Yang Ruoqing planned to go to the old mansion to find Yang Yongxian to come over to discuss the start of school.

As soon as I arrived at the door of the old mansion, I heard a pungent smell of medicine wafting out of Yang Huaan's house.

Yang Ruoqing didn't go in, but stood at the door of the hall and shouted Yang Yongxian inside.

Soon, Yang Yongxian came out of it.

"Qing'er, what's the matter?" He asked.

Yang Ruoqing said about the start of school, and Yang Yongxian was stunned.

"Oops, I've been so busy these days that I almost forgot about it!" He said.

Yang Ruoqing said: "Big brother, I will do it with Tang Yanzi when it comes to recruiting students." ”

"You can take some time these days to prepare the books for class."

"I have already told Li Zhengbo and them that after the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the class will officially start on the sixteenth." She said.

Yang Yongxian nodded: "Well, I know, I must be ready." ”

……

didn't go into Yang Hua'an's house to take a look, and Yang Ruoqing went back to her house.

The treasure pillars, jade pillars, and Wang Liang in the transport team were all found.

The main thing is to let them go to the surrounding villages, go door to door to talk about this matter, and do publicity.

Originally, I wanted to post some notices directly on paper, but considering these ten miles and eight villages, especially those small villages, almost all of them are illiterate.

Yang Ruoqing still plans to save some paper and pen.

Then, she went with Tang Lingzi and went to find Li Zheng and a few village elders.

Let Li Zheng and several village elders come forward, and then go to the surrounding villages to find Li Zheng in each village to talk about this.

Let the Li Zheng of each village go to the villagers in their respective villages to publicize this matter.

"Because our village is the first time in history to run a school, in order to plan this first quarter, all students who come to enlighten will be exempted from tuition."

"Let them try for free for a quarter first, and if they want to continue to study, they will start charging tuition from the next quarter."

On the way to visit and mobilize other villages on the border, Yang Ruoqing and Li Zheng exchanged their opinions with several village elders.

"Of course, for students who eat and live in the school, there is a charge for room and board."

"After they have been studying for a quarter and have felt the benefits of studying, they will definitely come back for the next quarter."

"Uncle Li Zhengbo and a few grandfathers, do you think my plan will come true?" Yang Ruoqing finally asked.

Li Zheng said with a smile: "You built the school, you invited the teacher, and you gave the big guys a trial for a quarter, which is obviously to take advantage of the big guys, why is there no reason?" ”

Several other village elders were also human spirits, and they only smiled and agreed.

When Yang Ruoqing heard this, she also smiled and nodded: "Cheng, then we will mobilize according to this rhetoric." ”

……

For three days in a row, the villagers from the nearby villages who came to sign up for the school almost stepped on the road in front of the school.

Yang Ruoqing, Luo Fengtang and Yang Yongxian took turns to sit in the school and receive the villagers who came to sign up.

The name, age, and home address of the students are registered separately.

Then, according to the age and home address of the students, the students are divided into classes.

"I thought I could recruit twenty students, but I didn't expect nearly sixty to come, which is really beyond my expectations!"

In the school, Yang Yongxian handed the roster of students in his hand to Yang Ruoqing and said.

Yang Ruoqing took the booklet and flipped through it at a glance.

Then he closed the booklet and said with a smile: "If it weren't for the fact that spring ploughing is going to take place after a while, many teenage children are laborers, otherwise, more people will come to study." ”

Yang Yongxian nodded.

Most of the students in this booklet are between the ages of six and nine.

There are three or five at the age of ten.

Over eleven years old, there are hardly.

"Big brother, look at these sixty-odd students, how many classes are they probably divided into?" Yang Ruoqing asked again.

Yang Yongxian thought for a moment and looked at the spacious and bright classroom.

"Let's divide it into two classes, one class has nearly thirty people."

"In this way, I can separate my teachings from day to day." He said.

Yang Ruoqing nodded: "Well, then listen to the eldest brother." ”

"Tomorrow, that is, the sixteenth day of the first month, the class will officially start."

"Thirty students paid for room and board, had lunch here, and rested by the way."

"I've also found the people who cook and clean in the school."

"It's my mother, Osmanthus, and Aunt Dayun. I also told them that I would come early tomorrow morning to boil water and wipe down the tables and chairs. ”

In addition, Yang Ruoqing shared some details and convenient things with Yang Yongxian.

After the two brothers and sisters finalized, Yang Yongxian said to Yang Ruoqing: "In this first quarter, except for room and board, the other half-penny tuition fees have not been collected. ”

"You also gave me a salary of one or two pieces of silver a month......

"It's equivalent to these three months, and it's you and Tang Lingzi who are raising this school out of their pockets, and raising my eldest brother and me."

"Big brother, I'm deeply guilty......"

Yang Yongxian said, a touch of embarrassment on his white face.

Yang Ruoqing hurriedly said: "Big brother, don't say this, I have invested in the early stage, without the early investment, how can I have the income in the future?" ”

"Big brother, you are a well-known talent, full of ink."

"You come to help me teach students, I can't ask for it, it's a talent!" She said.

Hearing this, Yang Yongxian was even more ashamed.

He waved his hand and said, "Sister, don't say such things, my foolish brother has been studying for so many years, and he still failed to win glory for his family......"

"Big brother, everything is about luck." Yang Ruoqing said, "You study hard, everyone can see it." It's just bad luck. ”

"But it doesn't matter, three hundred and sixty lines will be the champion, I believe that the eldest brother will definitely be an excellent teacher!" She said.

Yang Yongxian nodded, and a light lit up in his eyes.

……

For dinner, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang ate at Sun's side.

At the dinner table, Sun was extremely excited and excited about going to the school tomorrow to cook and do chores.

Xiao An was also very excited.

Because after the New Year, he is already seven years old, and he will go to the school tomorrow for enlightenment.
