Chapter 20

"If you don't study, you're blind. If you don't know anything in your life, you're hard to come forward." Li Xiao said while chewing the very tough cake.

"Well said!"

The one who supports Li Xiao was Yang Dayan, a former private school teacher who resolutely joined the former teaching teacher who rebelled when he had nowhere to go. He was the only person in this farm who had truly read the books of sages, and he knew very well that reading was the most difficult thing to change a person's destiny.

Mr. Zhao also read books, but only a few medical books I recognized with my master when I was studying medicine. Zhao Wan only learned some words from Mr. Zhao. Li Xiao and Li Zhen knew literacy, but in the past, the family was in good condition, so she invited Mr. Xixi to have a good education.

For the rest of the people, who are not ignorant of the eyes or even one with big words, they will recognize one of the fallen shoulder poles.

"I can't afford to read."

Mr. Zhao sighed that he knew some of the words he knew, so he knew the benefits of studying. The Tang Dynasty had been in the founding of the country for decades, and the imperial examination system was implemented and the students were selected for the exam. Although it had nothing to do with ordinary poor children, if you want to participate in the imperial examination, you would also have a background. You also obtained the capital investment bank papers and found those high-ranking officials to be recommended. How could ordinary poor children have this qualification?

But if you have read books and started a mystery, you will not be blind. Even if you don’t follow the path of imperial examinations and become an apprentice, it will be good. If you learn a accounting office or something in the future, your income will not be comparable to that of ordinary people. If you have the opportunity to go to the yamen to become a clerk, it would be even more amazing.

But although reading is good, it is not something that ordinary people offer.

It is easy to say that ordinary gentry landlords have the conditions at home. But ordinary people have the financial resources to support a boy in their studies.

"Mr. Yang used to be a private school teacher, but later he went to the world with me and became my accountant. He has read the books of sages and has also been puzzled for many children. Now Mr. Yang is old, so I think he will let Mr. Yang be the husband in our village in the future and teach our children to study hard." Li Xiao said a plan.

Mr. Zhao smiled and said, "I said I always thought Brother Yang was not simple. It turned out that he was still a knowledgeable person, which was amazing."

Mr. Yang smiled and said modestly, "That is, I have read some books in my early years, but in fact I can't become a private school teacher for a few years, just a poor school student. If everyone is not afraid of me being misleading people's children, I would rather hold the Qiantuan coach again."

Mr. Yang is willing to teach children to study, which is naturally a matter of delighting everyone. This has solved several problems.

These days, although there are official schools, they are very few, only in prefectures and counties. Often, only one county is one. Almost all the local tyrants can study in the local area, and even ordinary landlords cannot enter, let alone children from poor people.

Without that quota, you can't afford it.

Many landlords have a clan who build a clan with the help of their clans. They ask a teacher to teach their children. The clan has a big head, while the students' parents have to pay some training, that is, the tuition fees given to the teachers.

Although the care is not expensive, it means giving some meat during the New Year Festival, this is not something that ordinary people spend.

Now Yang Dayan is willing to teach children to study, and first of all, he solved the problem of nowhere to study. After all, the official school cannot be entered, and other people's sects cannot be entered, and even schools cannot be entered, so how can I study?

Even if you can go to other people's schools to study, the annual training is a expense. Now that Yang Dayan is willing to teach, the training must not be so much, after all, he is his own family.

"Books, paper, ink, pen and inkstone are not cheap either." Mr. Zhao said again.

Yang Dayan is very enthusiastic about teaching, "The problem of books is easy to solve and enlighten the children. There is no need to teach any profound things at the beginning. Just get two books. Actually, you don't have to buy them. I can copy them by myself. The children read and write them."

Li Xiao nodded, "Although paper, ink, pen and inkstone are expensive, no matter how poor you are, you cannot be poor in education. This expenditure is paid by public school. As long as you study well, I will have a reward!"

"Dad, I don't want to study, I want to work and make money."

A young man stood up and said.

Li Xiao looked over and found that this was the largest child in the village. The poor child had already become a family, and this child was probably ten years old. In the village households, the children of this time were indeed half a strong laborer.

The child's father is a simple dealer man. He looks like he is probably forty, but Li Xiao estimates that he is actually only about thirty. Most poor people are like this, and they may look like they are ten years older than their actual age.

A man has never read a book and is most awesome to scholars. He originally heard that Li Xiao was willing to let his children study and was willing to pay for the public to support him. Now, when he heard that his son was unwilling to study, he was so angry that he slapped him without saying a word.

"I beat you to death, what did you say?"

The beaten boy usually calls him Heiwa, but he doesn't have a big name. Although he is beaten, he is very stubborn.

"I don't go to school, I want to work to support my family."

The man was so angry that he slapped him again, and Li Xiao quickly took action to stop him.

Mr. Zhao explained from the side, "This Heiwa is the most obedient person. Although he is young, he is very sensible. His mother has always been in poor health. There are three younger children at home. The family has suffered a lot of famine and they often stop porridge. Heiwa is sensible and wants to help his father."

Li Xiao was very moved when he heard this.

Many children of this age in later generations did not understand their parents' understanding of their parents, but only knew to ask for it. They even often saw news that many children killed their mother with a knife because their parents did not allow them to play pesticides. Some even secretly used their parents' mobile phones to charge money, or even rewarded game anchors. Their parents' hard-earned 70,000 to 80,000 yuan they secretly spent money like this.

There was also a girl in her teenage years old who even stole tens of thousands of yuan in life-saving medical expenses from her father and took them to meet netizens.

"Brother, don't beat this child. Heiwa, study hard with Mr. Yang. As for the difficulties at home, we all know that we will help you. You don't have to worry about your family. If you want to help your family, just study well. Only after you study, it will be more useful in the future. In the future, you can better repay your parents and take care of your younger brothers and sisters. Do you know?"

"Brother Sanlang, I want to do business with you, I want to make money." Heiwa said stubbornly.

"Broken kid, how old are you? What you need now is to listen to your parents and study hard. As for the future, the burden of the family will naturally be handed over to your shoulders. Before that, what you need is to give yourself enough abilities so that you can shoulder the burden."

“I don’t want to read.”

"Heiwa, are you afraid? I am afraid that you are the oldest and the older brother, but you can't get enough of those younger brothers, will you lose face?"

"I'm not afraid." Heiwa said unconvincedly.

"I think you are just afraid, Heiwa. If you are not afraid, then you should study hard. Let me put it here first. I will give the best grades in the school and give six dou of millet every month. If you can get first place, these six dou of millet will be yours. If you work for others now, can you earn six dou of millet in a month? You can't make money, so if you really have the ability, study hard and get first place. Taking these six dou of millet is equivalent to earning a salary and being able to take care of your family."

"Dare you dare?"

Li Xiao gave a reward, and the school scored monthly. The first place was awarded six dou of Xiaomi, the second place was five dou, and the third place was four dou. Only the top three were awarded, and the children were encouraged to study hard.

Heiwa was agitated by Li Xiao, and he responded with dissatisfaction.
