Chapter 213, the younger brother's studies
"It's okay. It's good for us ordinary people to suppress the bandits. Those bandits do many evil things. This time you and Lord Xiao come here to find a way to eliminate them. We should thank you. I didn't do anything. What do you thank me?"
Of course, the strategy formulated by Lord Xiao is not just such a move. How could he rely entirely on superstition as a minister of the court?
However, their other strategies cannot tell Su Huan that even if Su Huan wants to eavesdrop, they may not always discuss how to suppress the bandits.
Forget it, Su Huan just needs to manage the forest well anyway.
As long as the bandits entering the forest are allowed to come and go, they will turn into spring mud to protect flowers, and the forest also needs fertile nutrients.
Su Huan happily ate his meal and rode his pony home.
When the villagers saw Su Huan, their attitude was more enthusiastic than before.
Su Huan not only invited everyone to have a meal, but also distributed a lot of uncooked meat to everyone, and more importantly, distributed some alive pheasants to feed the poor households.
Whether they want to eat it themselves in the future or sell eggs, it is a little better than before.
When Su Hua returned home, she found that with Madam Ai's care, Su Wan's clothes were much better than before, and they were not always messy.
With Madam Ai helping, Feng Jing doesn't have to face so many embarrassing things.
Su Zhen's handwriting is already quite good.
"Sister, where have you been recently?"
"I went to the academy for you. Do you know, it's so difficult to find a good teacher."
Su Zhen put down his pen and didn't know how to describe his mood. He missed school but didn't want to leave home. "Then, has Sister found a suitable academy?"
"I found it. In two days, my sister will send you to the academy to take a look."
After a period of time in ancient times, Su Hua also conducted a series of investigations on going to school.
Her previous understanding of the ancient times was basically a costume drama, but many descriptions of costume dramas were created for the growth of the protagonist, so many descriptions of the ancient times were incorrect.
Su Hua was afraid that he would make mistakes, so he had investigated these days.
Before, she planned to send Su Zhen to a private school, but the private schools in the Qin State were relatively prestigious families, clans or folk kindergarten education institutions within the countryside.
Chengjia Village is so poor that the village simply does not support private schools.
If you go to someone else's village to attend a private school, you can study, but if you work hard, you may not be treated fairly. After all, you are not from the same village, and those in the next village may not necessarily accept students from other villages.
When it comes to familiar clans, Su Huan doesn't know him either. Although she knows people from the Chen family now, she doesn't know him.
If you send your younger brother to school in such a place, you will inevitably have to bear the kindness of others. Others have power and power. What if your younger brother goes in to school? Let him swallow his anger and just go to school?
So, the private school was rejected by Su Hua.
Another option is Yixue, which is also called "Yixue".
Primary school established by government funding, local public funds or land rent.
Most of the enrollment targets of Yixue are poor children, which allows children who want to study to go to school for free.
However, most of the teaching content of Yixue is just a relatively basic course such as judging the text and stats, and there will be no profound content. Su Zhen can teach him at home with Feng Jing's level.
Su Huan felt that there was no need to waste time when studying in Yi, because she still had the ability to make money.
Therefore, sending my younger brother to the academy is a better choice.
The academies are larger than private schools, and various teaching methods are more scientific in Su Hua's opinion. The masters in them are all talents, not all the down-and-out scholars who are private schools themselves. Many of them have passed the exam, but they are indifferent to fame and fortune, so they choose to go to the academy to teach and educate.
The gentleman is also taught by the six arts of ritual, music, archery, calligraphy, and counting.
This couple of Su Hua thought at the beginning, but didn't want their younger brother to become a nerd.
The various conditions of the academy were really great. What surprised Su Huan was that the academy did not charge any fees.
It is still OK if a poor family wants to study in a college. Once the admission fee is not accepted, he will also include food and accommodation, and he will get a scholarship if he does well in the exam, and there is no household registration requirement. This is enough to show the importance of the Qin State to pay attention to education.
However, with such good conditions, there will definitely be many people who are willing to let their children go to school, which has caused fierce competition.
Su Hua couldn't guarantee that his younger brother would definitely be able to study in the academy, but it would be okay to send it to him and try it.
Since poor children can also go to the interview academy, the previous cultural exams for the children may not be too strict, but the comprehensive exams, which are similar to modern interviews. Another thing is to look at the fate?
Su Huan’s decision now is to go and check out the academy first. If the academy is not admitted, then find a private school with a good reputation.
Su Zhen didn't know how much preparations Su Hua had done, "Is the academy far away?"
"Not far." It's right in the prefecture, which is equivalent to being in the city. How can you say it's far?
"Oh, that's good."
Looking at the relaxed smile on the child's face, Su Hua really couldn't bear to hit him, but it would be better for him to understand earlier, so as not to have a rebellious heart in the future. "Brother, these two academies are still two days away from our family."
"Ah, what should I do?" Su Zhen thought he could go home every day. "The children who could go to school in the village could come back every day?"
"That's because they attend edicts and private schools, not far from home, so they can come back every day or once a week."
Su Huan knew that it was useless to reason with the children, so he said in shock and exaggeratedly, "And the academy is free to attend classes, and it also includes food and accommodation! Zhen'er, the conditions of the academy are really great."
Sure enough, Su Zhen smiled with a small face, "Sister, don't you have to pay money to go to school in a college? Don't you have to pay Shu Xiu?"
"yes."
Su Zhen became serious and nodded, "Okay, I will try it. I was worried that studying would cost my sister too much money. Since the academy does not charge tuition, I must go in."
"Actually, there is no need for Zhen'er to put such great pressure on herself. It is a good thing to be able to enter. If we don't go in, we can find a private school to go to school."
No matter how relieved Su Huan was, Su Zhen also made his own decision.
In fact, the cost of going to school is just a matter of tuition.
Otherwise, as long as parents who are not smart enough, they will send their children to try to see if they can enter the academy.
The biggest problem with studying is the expenses of pen, ink, paper and inkstone, not to mention that paper is a consumable. Buying inferior rice paper is also a mountain for poor families.
The poor students have very few resources in this area, which is why many farmers give up sending their children to school.
When going to a private school, the tutoring is usually tied into a bundle of dried meat (ten pieces). How can it be considered too much money?
