Zhao Yunlan finally passed the confinement period, and her youngest daughter Qing'er gradually grew up, and she is becoming more and more cute now. Why is the nickname Qing'er given to her daughter? It is because Zhao Yunlan hopes that her younger daughter will be sunny every day in the future and will be happy every day.

"Mom, my sister is getting fatter and fatter!" Ruiwen looked at the little girl in the cradle and couldn't help but poke the baby's face with her hands.

Zhao Yunlan smiled and said, "Because she is your sister, she is as fat as you were when you were a child!"

Ruiwen was so happy when he heard this and gently touched Qing'er's head.

Wang came over at this time and wanted to ask Zhao Yunlan about holding a 100-day banquet, but because it was not done for the full moon, he thought that he should have to hold it with the 100-day banquet.

Zhao Yunlan shook her head, "Mom, I won't hold a 100-day banquet. I want to wait until I'm one year old before I'm one year old."

Wang thought that Li Mingren was busy with official business recently and rarely ate together, and didn't know what was wrong. Now that his granddaughter's 100-day banquet was not planned, Wang had to nod.

Zhao Yunlan looked at Wang's expression becoming solemn, and comforted her: "Mom, don't worry, we have everything!"

Wang: "Okay~"

…

The school has finally been completed, and the teacher has also invited me. Now I am preparing to recruit students.

The husband was invited by the Fucheng City and named Chen Chongmin. He is already forty-two and has passed the scholarship. The journey to enter the officialdom can be considered to be here. The Chen family has already spent all their money on their studies to support Chen Chongmin. Now Chen Chongmin bows to reality and no longer is obsessed with fame and fortune. He only thinks that he can support the family with this only little knowledge.

In order to provide Chen Chongmin with the exam, everyone in the family was thinking of ways to make money. Chen’s father went out to work as a small worker, and Chen Chongmin’s wife also took on some embroidery work at home. As long as he made money, he would save it to buy a study book for Chen Chongmin, or he would spend it on taking the exam.

Although the Chen family lives in Fucheng, it is only a small village under Fucheng, so the expenses for taking the exam are only less than those of the students in other counties.

Chen Chongmin is not a family-loving person. He often copy some books by himself or helps others write letters to earn some copper money to reduce the burden on his family. Even though so many people make money, the Chen family still fails to make ends meet.

In addition to supporting scholars, the Chen family also has the expenses of a family. Before they passed the scholarship exam, the land had already been sold at home, and the land left behind can no longer be sold. It is said that poor scholars are poor scholars, which is really confirmed by Chen Chongmin.

After Chen Chongmin gave up on continuing the scientific examination, he found a job as a teacher in the city. Perhaps it was because of his bad luck, or perhaps it was because Chen Chongmin was not strong enough. He hired a better-knowledgeable man from the academy and fired Chen Chongmin without waiting for a moment.

At that time, Chen Chongmin, a scholar who was admitted to the school, was only a wave of the crane. Chen Chongmin, who was fired, was not discouraged. He took on the job of copying books without this job. Now he doesn’t have to be busy with his studies, but he just copied books, and he unknowingly practiced good calligraphy.

In addition, Chen Chongmin also taught several children at home. Chen Chongmin got married late and got married only at 25. His wife was from a neighboring village named Wan Shaoying, who was five years younger than Chen Chongmin. They only had one son in the fourth year after they got married, and then they had a second daughter and a young son in the next few years, so the children are not too old now. Although the family cannot afford scholars for the time being, Chen Chongmin still thinks it is a good thing for their children to read more books.

Li Mingli found that Chen Chongmin was still looking for craftsmen because of repairing the village. It happened that the craftsman's residence was next to the Chen family. When Li Mingli came out of the craftsman's house, he happened to listen to Chen Chongmin giving lectures in the yard. After standing for a while, he couldn't help but rashly stepped forward and knocked on the door to ask.

Chen Chongmin and his three children looked surprised. Fortunately, Li Mingli was honest and polite, so he was not beaten. So Chen Chongmin signed a contract with Li Mingli, and Li Mingli also asked Chen Chongmin's three children to go to school together.

Chen Chongmin was naturally happy, but unexpectedly, this school could accept women's school. Chen Chongmin was actually very optimistic about his second daughter. The second daughter seemed to be smarter than her two sons in school. She often taught an article that she always understood faster than her two sons.

On the day the school was completed, Chen Chongmin moved to Shiyang County with his family, and the land in the capital was rented out. Moreover, Chen Chongmin's wife also found a cooking job in the school. The wages were not high. After all, in addition to Chen Chongmin, the three children also had to eat in the school, so they were paid for some wages. But Wan Shaoying was also very satisfied.

Zhao Yunlan invited Chen Chongmin to have dinner at the mansion. Only then did Chen Chongmin realize that it was a school run by the county magistrate's wife.

Chen Chongmin stood up after giving a student tribute, his mind was blank at this moment.

"Mr. Chen, please sit down. Today I am just a chat with you, so don't be too restrictive." Zhao Yunlan tried to be gentle. Somehow, since she had the title of county magistrate's wife, her momentum had become uncontrollable. Sometimes she could really scare some timid people.

"Yes, madam."

Zhao Yunlan smiled: "From the perspective of the school, you can call me the dean, we are friendly colleagues."

Chen Chongmin had a mouth, and a syllable was gently emitted from his throat: "Ah?"

Zhao Yunlan nodded: "Yes, Mr. Chen, we can share our views on running a school. Everyone can speak freely and whatever you want."

Chen Chongmin really never thought about this. He came to the school to teach just to make a living. After all, the slap given by Li Mingli is quite satisfactory, and it also includes food and accommodation.

"I'm sorry for being incompetent. Actually, I haven't thought about this." Chen Chongmin responded honestly. He couldn't make up a reason temporarily, and he couldn't make up a temporary basis.

Zhao Yunlan smiled and said, "No problem, then can you please listen to me and say a few gossips?"

Chen Chongmin: "Look at me with your ears."

"I wonder if Mr. Chen has known how many schools there are in Youzhou? I won't say much. I will only say that in Shiyang County, there are no other schools except the county schools. There are only more than ten students in Shiyang County, and none of them have passed the exam for the children in recent years.

Although I may not necessarily change the status quo by running a school, my goal is to allow children in Shiyang County to have books to read. I want everyone to have more choices. We can avoid being fooled when signing contracts or working hours."

Chen Chongmin nodded and agreed with this. Isn’t he trying to give his children more opportunities when tutoring at home?

Zhao Yunlan continued: "I am not bound by men and women in running schools. I hope that girls can also recognize some words. Even if they cannot take the scientific exam, they can understand. So whether it is a boy or a girl, I hope that everyone can read some books. Although they may not be successful or have a bright future, they can at least make them speak reasonably, do things more, speak with standards, and play with moderation."

Chen Chongmin's eyes seemed to be shining, and he sighed in his heart that the woman in front of him had such a heart.

"I will benefit a lot from listening to my wife's words."

Zhao Yunlan waved her hand, thinking that she was just standing on the shoulders of these predecessors and living in a peaceful era with open minds.

"Some humble opinions are not worthy of praise from Mr. Chen. I just want to say that the initial stage of our school is to teach literacy first, and don't treat everyone as good students who take the scientific exam as soon as they come. When everyone gets used to it, let's further teach."

Chen Chongmin nodded: "Yes, President Zhao, I know."

Zhao Yunlan nodded: "That's hard work on enrollment, sir, I will ask Mingli to assist sir."

"yes."
