The next day, several girls came to the school to register, and Li Mingmei was responsible for registering everyone.

There are also a few girls of the same age as Mingmei. Looking at Li Mingmei's now being out of the box, she is no longer the black and thin girl she used to, and she has a burst of envy in her eyes.

"Mingmei, remember the names of my sister and me." The person who spoke was Li Dahua, the daughter of the village head Li Qingnian's family.

Thinking about the Li Dahua family was much richer than Mingmei's family. In just a few years, the two of them made a turn, and they were not so easy to catch up with Mingmei.

"Okay, Dahua, Xiaoling, I've written it all for you. Just hand Shu Xiu over to Xia Xiang."

Li Dahua handed over Shu Xiu, turned around and asked, "Mingmei, did you become a guru for us?"

Li Mingmei smiled and shook her head: "No! It's my Madam Cui. I used to be a husband for me at home. Oh~ I still want to come to school to play with you, but my mother has been very careful recently."

Li Dahua knew in her heart that Li Mingmei is now considered a lady from the official family, so there are naturally many rules. Besides, everyone is a big girl, so it is not easy to wander outside.

"Yes, I have been begging my parents for a long time when I came to this school to study. Finally, the village chief held a meeting yesterday, and then I took this opportunity to fight for it again. I want to recognize some words and read some books before I get married.

I was so envious of my brother coming to school to study. When he came home from school, he pestered him to teach me every day. As a result, this kid couldn't learn well by himself, but he was so anxious. Now that I can go to school, I must study hard.

My sister sent her to study together. I really envy her for being young now and she can study for a few more years.”

Li Dahua sighed at this hard-won opportunity to study, and there seemed to be a light flashing in her eyes.

Except for the girls from Li Bao and Zhang Mei’s family, the other girls were inspired by their parents because of the big flowers.

Everyone sighed and kept talking around Li Mingmei. Li Mingmei was not impatient, and as she talked about getting married.

"Dahua, have you started to look at each other?" Li Mingmei asked curiously. Now that Wang is detained at home, he doesn't know much about these friends in the village.

Li Dahua was shy by this straightforward question and lowered her head and said, "Not yet! But my mother talked to me every day."

Li Mingmei: "My sister-in-law wrote to say that women don't have to rush to get married at the age of fifteen or sixteen. Most of the ladies in the capital got married after 18. My sister-in-law said that this is good for women."

Li Dahua changed her mind after hearing this: "If this is the case, then I can study for a few more years!"

Li Mingmei blinked her eyes: "Yes!"

Li Dahua suddenly became excited. Li Mingmei always felt something was wrong, but she just didn't know where the problem occurred.

As expected, when Dahua went back to tell her mother that the woman would get married after 18, she was almost escorted by her parents to find Li Mingmei to leave Shu Xiu. Fortunately, Li Dahua quickly admitted her mistake with her parents, and then she got over the matter.

The women's class was started. Although there were only seven girls, the Mingli and Mingmei, who were in charge of this matter, were very happy.

"Hello Mr. Cui!" Several girls stood up and saluted Madam Cui. This was what Li Mingmei had taught before. In the school, any man and woman who teaches in the school, they are called Mr.

Madam Cui felt a little moved, and when she looked at the students on the seat, she felt an indescribable feeling.

"Everyone sit down, and I will teach you how to read and read from today. Of course, if you are willing to listen to more other etiquettes, I will teach you."

"Yes, follow the teachings of Mr.

The women's class started, and the boy kept making noise. Mr. He knocked on the ruler twice.

"It seems that everyone wants to write more big words today. Since this is the case, we will add more five big words today, and we must write neatly."

The class was quiet now, and the boys listened honestly as Mr. He continued to give lectures.

There is an empty venue between the men's class and the women's class. Zhao Yunlan plans to use it as a playground, but this playground has not been used yet, so a garden is built in the middle, which can be regarded as a dividing line between male and female students.

At the Li family's mansion, Wang planned to go to Zhaojiagou. This time he went to Jiang to help tell me about his relationship with the third brother and the Zhao family's daughter.

"Mom, I..." Li Mingli stammered.

Wang: "You, stay at home, I'll come back as soon as I go."

Li Mingli knew that this was the rule, so he could only nod and wait for news from Wang at home.

After Wang left, Old Man Li came to find Li Mingli.

"Last brother, the ancestral hall in our village has also been built. Uncle Chunsheng said he wanted to invite his ancestors to worship him. He originally thought that your elder brother would come back to do this, but your elder brother is not back now. What I mean is, you write to your second brother and ask him to come back to do this with you."

Li Mingli nodded: "Okay, then I'll write a letter to ask my second brother to come back."

"Um."

"Hey, dad, otherwise I'll let the fourth brother come back together. He is now also a Tongsheng. The eldest brother is not here, so the fourth brother can do it. Let him come back to show the ancestors that our Li family has also had scholars."

Old Man Li: "Okay, let him come back."

Li Mingli nodded: "Then I'll pick them up and bring Ruiwen back too."

"OK!"

The sacrifice was set for five days later. Li Mingli asked Datou to go to the Fucheng to deliver a message, and he went to the county to pick up the uncle and nephew who were studying.

After Wang came back from Zhaojiagou, he waited for news from Jiang. In a blink of an eye, the time for the sacrifice to be ranked was up.

The village chief called the oldest third grandfather in the village to preside over the ceremony. The offerings used for sacrifices were made by the remaining money from the village to build the ancestral hall before. Old man Li took the lead and pulled a whole sheep and a pig from his home as the main offering.

Some famous families in the village were arranged in various positions for sacrifice. Under the leadership of Li Zongping, the sacrificial ceremony began in an orderly manner.

Men, young and old, dressed up in their clothes and crowns, standing in rows. They had to invite the ancestral hall before the sacrifice, and they had to do this job with old Taoists.

The old Taoist priest performed a ritual, and then each family sent people to arrange the ancestors in the family one by one in the ancestral hall according to their seniority. After the invitation was made, the sacrificial ceremony began under the leadership of Li Zongping. The children and grandchildren of each family lined up behind and performed three bows and nine bows. Even Xiao Ruiwen was arranged to kowtow and bow down behind to bow to the rituals.

The ancestral hall is going solemnly and grandly. The outside of the ancestral hall is very lively. The aunts and sisters in the village are busy organizing today's meals. Today's sacrificial ceremony is a big day in the village, and the whole village must have a good meal. All households have taken out rice, flour, meat and vegetables from home, and they can't take too much, so they volunteer to help cook.

Although the foreigners in the village were unable to participate in the sacrifice, the village chief still invited them to have a meal to celebrate.

Wang not only sent a few baskets of meat and vegetables, but also sent his fat sister-in-law to be the chef and arranged today's meals.

After the men who were sacrificing came out, the dishes started to be served outside, and the table was placed on the road outside the ancestral hall and lined up inside. Looking at a long dragon, the third grandfather Li Zongping suddenly burst into tears. He just kowtowed his tears when he was bowing inside, but now he has come out but can't hold it back anymore.

The village chief helped Li Zongping to sit at the main table and called Old Man Li's family to sit with him. Everyone said some happy words around Li Zongping, and the elder slowly stopped crying.
