Chapter 214 Women's School(1/2)
After saying this, Gao Cheng respectfully saluted them: "My uncle and aunt's two sheltering kindnesses will be kept in mind and will definitely repay them in the future. Now, my nephew will go back to the room to change his clothes first, and then come out to entertain guests."
Then, he left.
His book boy quickly nodded and bowed to Gao Feng and his wife, and then chased him with a bag on his back.
It was not until they walked away that Chen and Xiao were stuck out their tongues.
"Dad, mom, brother was so scary just now!"
"What's scary? He can't beat you." Gu Caining said.
"That's right!" The sisters thought about it, and they immediately smiled happily again.
Gao Feng nodded, then held the hands of his two daughters. "Let's go, let's go to the banquet."
Since Gao Cheng has entered their house again, the matter of holding a banquet for Gao Cheng still has to fall on him. Gao Feng had already prepared all the wine and food in Zuixianlou early in the morning, so now he only needs to give his order, and the food can be prepared and served immediately.
Then, Gao Cheng changed his clothes, walked out in a gentle and kind look, and began to socialize with Gao Feng, toasting the villagers who came to the banquet.
When the banquet started, Tian Shi shamelessly wanted to bring Gao Tianci over for a meal. The mother and son stood upright at the entrance of the restaurant, shouting shamelessly: "Call Brother Cheng to come out and pick us up!"
In this situation, I also expect Gao Cheng to come out and invite them in person, and then they come in and sit in the main seat openly!
"Let them get out." After hearing this, Gu Caining only uttered four words coldly.
Gao Cheng immediately clapped his hands after hearing this. "Grand aunt said it well!"
Seeing this, everyone was shocked - this kid is like his parents, and he is poisonous!
No, he is obviously even more cruel than his father and mother!
Gao Tianci is just selfish, Cuiqiao is ruthless, while Gao Cheng is both selfish and ruthless. In the face of a good life, he is a person who can even ignore his grandmother and father!
Such people are not easy to provoke!
So, taking advantage of the opportunity, Wang San's wife quietly pulled Gu Caining aside. "Ning Madam, you should be more careful in the future! With the virtues of his father and mother, this person is not much better. Now he is incompetent, and he can only rely on you for food, drink, defecation and urination. But when he makes a fortune in the future, God knows what he will do?"
"I know." Gu Caining nodded, "I didn't have much hope for him. No matter how high he climbs in the future, as long as he doesn't do anything that harms our family or Shuangliu Village, it's up to him."
"Hey, you couple are so kind! They are so tolerant of everyone and try their best to pull everyone around them. It's a pity that you are afraid that you have always been so kind to others, so they ask some people to take your kindness for granted!" Wang San's wife shook her head and sighed.
"It's natural to take it for granted. It's just a casual thing." Gu Caining said calmly.
Wang San's wife was immediately choked and had nothing to say.
"Forget it, I know that you and your wife are both people who have their own ideas. Now I will say more, it will be useless. But I still have to say something more - you must be careful and be careful. Now that you are doing well, he will certainly be very energetic to you. But if he meets someone who is more powerful than you one day, what will he do to know what he will become? This kid is not a good thing!"
I said the same thing twice without getting tired of it, which shows that she really doesn't like Gao Cheng.
"Thank you, Aunt Wang San, for your praise. I remember your words."
As soon as Wang San's wife finished speaking, a clear voice rang behind her back.
"My mother!"
Wang San's wife jumped up in fear!
As soon as she turned around, she saw Gao Cheng standing behind her, smiling with his eyes in his mouth, and staring at her without interruption. Her hair suddenly stood up on her back!
Although this kid was laughing, his eyes were terrifyingly cold. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, but the direction of his face was very strange. He looked as if he was smiling but not smiling, which made people's heart tremble inexplicably.
Wang San's wife was so cold that she didn't dare to look at Gao Cheng for a second time, so she quickly lowered her head and ran away in shame.
Seeing this, Gu Caining frowned. "You're scared."
"Is that so? That only means she is guilty of being a thief." Gao Cheng said.
"That's not possible." Gu Caining said in a deep voice, then reached out and pinched his cheek, "You are so cruel that you can only scare these inexplicable villagers. When dealing with those knowledgeable people outside, you have been destroyed before you even demonstrate your virtue!"
Gao Cheng was stunned when he heard this, but Gu Caining had already changed the topic. "Why did you suddenly come to see me?"
"Someone toasted my uncle. My uncle said that it was mainly your contribution to my uncle, my uncle. So if you want to toast, you should toast you, so my nephew came to invite you over and have a drink." Gao Cheng quickly answered.
"Oh, that's it! Let's go!" Gu Caining nodded and turned around and left.
Watching her figure go away, Gao Cheng slowly raised his hand and touched the place where Gu Caining had just pinched, then pulled the corner of his mouth before chasing him.
In this way, the first scholar in Shuangliu Village finally emerged.
The county magistrate also attached great importance to the youngest case in Dongshan County in a hundred years, so he personally wrote a letter to the best Bailu Academy in Dongchuan Province. The mountain leader of Bailu Academy naturally had heard of Cheng Ge'er's reputation, so after receiving the recommendation of the county magistrate, he refused to call Cheng Ge'er over. The two of them closed the door and talked for a long time. Then the mountain leader made a decision and hired Cheng Ge'er!
So, by the coming year, Cheng Ge'er will go to Bailu Academy to study!
He suddenly became the youngest student that Bailu Academy has received in the past 50 years of running the school.
This made the big people in the village look forward to it. You know, Chen Xuran from Shuangqiao Village next door was already fourteen years old when he was studying in Bailu Academy! In this way, his father, Mr. Chen, even held fifty tables to celebrate in the village.
Because of this, the villagers are more confident. However, everyone is not too arrogant.
The last time Mr. Ji came to make a fuss, it really left a very deep impression on many people. Now everyone knows it well - since Gao Feng's identity as a juren is not very effective, let alone Brother Cheng is just a little scholar?
They really just have some money left, but they still lack a lot in other aspects.
And this time, the incident of Brother Cheng'er being arrested and stimulating everyone. So now, many people have decided that they will also send their sons to school!
Anyway, everyone has some extra money in their hands now. Although it costs a lot of money to send children to study and write, it is within the range that everyone can bear. Not to mention, if this money can really raise a scholar, they will make a lot of money!
Even if you can't raise a scholar, the child can recognize a few words and know how to write and count. He will not be afraid of being deceived when doing business with others in the future!
So no matter how they calculated it, their idea was not a loss. Therefore, they were all quickly bought a set of clothes by their son and sent their son to Mr. Liu.
Gu Caining was very dissatisfied with the decision of the villagers.
"Why just send your son to study, not to your daughter? Daughters are also the bloodline of the family, you must treat them equally!"
"Hey, Ning Niang, you are wrong. My daughter will get married sooner or later. The water splashed by the married daughter. They have been raising her at home for more than ten years, and they will be in the family for decades. Why do we have to spend so much money on them? In the end, the betrothal gifts we received are not enough to fill the holes, which is not cost-effective!" Wang San's wife immediately explained this when she heard her say this.
But these words made Gu Caining feel even more uncomfortable.
"To put it bluntly, aren't you just reluctant to pay? Well, I'll pay this money!"
"Ah? Niang Ning, aren't you crazy?"
"Of course not. Actually, I have been planning this plan for a long time!" Gu Caining said.
Wang San's wife's face suddenly turned pale. "Ning Niang, you are so crazy!"
"Then you just think I'm crazy!" Gu Caining responded calmly.
In the face of his crazy decision to his wife, Gao Feng's reaction was also very dull.
"Anyway, the money at home is yours, so you can use it whatever you like."
With just one sentence, he ignored everything.
Seeing this, Wang San's family was completely dumbfounded.
"I'm crazy. These couple are really the craziest people I've ever seen in my life. Do they think their heads look different from us? Otherwise, why are their strange ideas coming out one after another?" When they got home, Wang San's wife kept sighing.
Wang San is old and can no longer care about the snake circle day and night, so the snake circle in Qingshan Town has been mainly handed over to his young and strong son to manage. But he still goes over and checks every now and then to make sure that his son has done his best and does not be perfunctory.
Today, Wang San is at home.
Hearing his wife say this, his face sank: "Brother Feng and his wife never do unreasonable things. Now that they decide to do this, there must be their reason. We just need to cooperate with them."
"Ah? The head of the family, you mean..."
"Well. Isn't our third girl not yet at the time to kiss? Brother Zhuang and his little daughter can walk and talk, so I will send them all to school to study. There are also daughters from relatives who are about the same age and we will also persuade them to send them to you if they can. As long as you follow Brother Feng and the others, it will definitely be correct!"
When the village chief heard about this, he quickly started asking his daughter-in-law to buy clothes, schoolbags and other items for his granddaughter.
Gu Caining didn't know that before her girls' school was built, several students were waiting to come in to study.
With Gao Feng's full support, she went to the village chief to enclose a piece of open space in the village and built a school for girls.
As for the gentlemen in the school, she asked Zhang Yuanli to help find several female gentlemen who are well-read in poetry and books. Everything is easy to discuss, anyway, she has money now!
Zhang Yuanli always took the requests of their husband and wife seriously. So after receiving Gu Caining's entrustment, he immediately sent people to search everywhere and found the widow of a scholar. The scholar's wife's father was also a scholar. She was influenced by her father since she was a child. She was able to write poetry and prose. After marrying the scholar's husband, the two of them lived a harmonious life and lived a happy life.
Unfortunately, her husband was in poor health. Less than ten years after they got married, the husband passed away, leaving her and her daughter to survive. But she, a woman, now she has no support from her husband, and the family has no land, so there is only limited things she can do.
So after Zhang Yuanli found out about her identity, he quickly sent someone to invite her. When this widow Zhu heard that it was a wealthy person from Dongshan County, she also went to Shuangliu Village to teach girls to study. The most important thing is that she could take her daughter with her!
She agreed immediately.
In addition to Widow Zhu, Zhang Yuanli also took the initiative to invite a few more female gentlemen for them.
The person was sent by Zhang Yuanli's wife Ning. Ning seriously introduced to Gu Caining: "This one teaches girls, this one teaches painting, and this one teaches piano and flute. We think that everyone has a different personality. Maybe some people just don't like reading and writing? However, it's always good for girls to be talented, so we hired a few more. Anyway, your family doesn't lack this little bit of scruples now, right?"
Gu Caining nodded immediately. "You are indeed thinking longer than us. Then leave all these behind! I will ask more people to free up a few houses for them to live in."
Seeing that Gu Caining did what he said, he really built a school for the girls, hired a teacher, and took the initiative to hand over all the Shu Xiu! She even asked someone to purchase a batch of books, and prepared them to do all the pens, inks, papers and inkstones.
In other words, girls who want to study only need to check in with their bags!
Many girls from relatively ordinary families in the village also became interested.
After all, who doesn’t want to learn more? Seeing the brothers at home go out early and come back late every day with their schoolbags on their backs, they are envious. And they learn more, and they can lift their identity up when they say they are kissing in the future, right?
In fact, the villagers don’t love their daughters, but they are just the thoughts of many years of inheritance. They always think that their daughter is a foreigner. With limited resources at hand, the first choice is of course to pour the best resources on their sons. But now, since they know that their daughter can be educated without spending much money, and the daughter has been soft-hearted for several requests, a few families have softened their hearts and agreed.
So, the first batch of students were welcomed in the women's school. After counting, there were actually ten people!
This number is twice as many as the number of people who appeared there when Mr. Liu’s school was first built!
