When the girls are all collected, there are still a bunch of boys left.

Zhao Yuanle counted the girls, and there were 32 as Yaoer remembered.

After thinking about it, she said, "There are only [-] people. Now start reporting your age, and then line up."

This time, the group of people became noisy.

Some wanted to report indiscriminately, but they were quickly pointed out by others. After a group of people cursed and cursed, they barely formed a team.

Zhao Yuanle walked over, asked one by one, and finally chose the youngest eighteen.

Don't want the rest.

But Zhao Yuanle had something to say.

"If you really want to learn, you can sit in on it then."

A woman: "What is an audition?"

Zhao Yuanle: "It's just learning together next to you, but the things will come out by yourself, and you don't care about the food."

The woman pouted immediately.

"I have nothing to do, and I'm still listening in, who is coming?"

After speaking, she took her child away angrily.

After everyone got their registration numbers, things were almost settled, and the gate of Zhao's house became clean again.

He Ju sat at the door, looking at those old people who were hunched over and leading their grandson away, with a very unbearable expression on their faces.

"Actually, you don't have to be so strict."

Zhao Yuanle: "Sanniang, you said before that this was giving money to others, but now you feel sorry for them?"

He Ju: "I just think it's not fair to boys."

Zhao Yuanle: "They have already taken advantage of a lot, so should all the advantages in this world be given to them?
Don't yell when you have the advantage, now as long as you don't take advantage of it, you will be at a disadvantage?
I have no obligation to give them any benefits. I let these people come out of good intentions. "

Yao'er was at the side, shaking his head and reading a sentence.

"Do not suffer from widowhood but suffer from inequity."

Zhao Yuanle: "Wrong, this is called Sheng Mi En Dou Mi Qiu. They have always taken advantage of it as a matter of course. If they don't give it one day, they will feel resentful."

Yao'er: "Then just don't give it up."

Zhao Yuanle snorted.

"That can't be done, your sister and I are rebellious, that's what we want to do.

Sister, I just don't like these customs, even if I want to be angry with them, I still like their helpless look when they are angry. "

Yao'er pursed her lips and fell into deep thought.

Zhao Yuanle: "Okay, let's continue to prepare, paper and pen, first share a share for each girl, and then make rice and cook. I will talk to Aunt Yu about it."

Just doing what he said, Zhao Yuanle went to the next town that afternoon to purchase a lot of pencils and manuscript paper.

That night, he took out enough food, oil, vegetables, and meat, and discussed with the widow Yu about the meal at noon.

In the end, Wulin's father, according to what Zhao Yuanle said, began to chop bamboo and make long tables for these children to write.

Three days later, the boys' families paid all the money for the paper and pens, and the long tables were also ready, and a shed that could shelter the rain was also successfully built.

That night, Zhao Yuanlan took Wang Gou'er all over the village, going door to door, saying that school would start tomorrow.

Early in the morning of the second day, after Zhao Yuanle got up, he saw Yaoer who was already dressed.

He Ju, with her big belly, straightened his sleeves and collars. …

"Yao'er, today you will be giving lectures in front of so many brothers and sisters in the village, are you afraid?"

Yao'er: "I'm not afraid, I know all these by heart."

He Ju smiled and touched Yao'er's face.

"Our Yao'er is really capable. From now on, you will be a little child prodigy in ten miles and eight villages."

Yao'er is serious: "I'm not a child prodigy, I just have a good memory. If you want to become better, you still have to be serious. There are many difficult things in this world, and I can't be proud."

He Ju listened to Yao'er's words, she didn't know some words very well, but it didn't affect her looking at Yao'er with a loving mother's pride.

"So nice."

If there is half of this in her stomach, it will be enough.

After thinking about it, He Ju rubbed her waist and sat aside to rest.

Yao'er walked towards Zhao Yuanle, stretched out his hand to hold her: "Go, sister, let's go quickly."

Zhao Yuanle: "Let's have breakfast first."

Yao'er: "I've eaten buns."

Zhao Yuanle: "Then you wait until I finish eating."

Yao'er anxiously stood aside, waiting for Zhao Yuanle to finish eating the buns, then rinsed his mouth and tidied his hair.

After everything was done, Zhao Yuanle and Yao'er walked out together.

Zhao Yuanlan finally got dressed and followed out at the last moment.

"You wait for me."

Today, she will also be present.

Zhao Yuanle waited for her, and then the three walked towards the pig farm together.

Unexpectedly, at the entrance of the village, a crowd of adults and children were waiting.

Zhao Yuanle looked at his watch, then at the sky, and couldn't help frowning.

"What time is it now? Why are you all here?"

Xiu'er led her sisters and said with a smile, "Today is the first day, everyone wants to arrive early."

If you arrive early, you can grab a seat and sit in the front.

Zhao Yuanle didn't know what these people were thinking. Looking at these people, he led a group of people there.

Arriving here, Zhao Yuanle picked up the booklet and started roll call.

In this roster, she arranged it according to age, and men and women were also mixed.

A bunch of adults, especially those with boys at home, stood by, their eyes almost falling away.

After Zhao Yuanle finished the roll call, the children lined up in the order they were called.

Zhao Yuanle is considered tall here, so he scanned around and changed the order of these people according to their size.

"Okay, ten in a row, five in a row, walk over one by one in order."

These children couldn't be honest in front of Zhao Yuanle, and now they walked over and sat down obediently in order.

At this time, the old patriarch, who was late, arrived.

With a cane in his hand, he was just out of breath, and turned around to blame his old wife.

"I told you to wake me up early, you slept more than I did."

The patriarch's daughter-in-law was also wronged.

"I started calling you, but you didn't get up, and now you're blaming me again, it's really annoying."

"I'm too lazy to argue with you." Saying that, the old patriarch came over and looked at Zhao Yuanle with a smile: "Lele, it's such a big matter, your uncle won't come back?"

Zhao Yuanle: "What kind of big deal is this?"

The old patriarch: "That's it. Opening the school is not a big deal? Your uncle should come back."

Before Zhao Yuanle could speak, the old patriarch touched his beard and smiled, showing his missing teeth: "Oh, your family is really smoked from the ancestral grave, one is stronger than the other, especially you."…

He gave Zhao Yuanle a thumbs up: "This is you, you have big ideas and vision.

We are all from the same village, and we are all relatives. We have made a fortune, but we just want to bring people from our own side. You have done a good job. "

The old patriarch gave a rainbow fart, and Zhao Yuanle hurriedly interrupted: "Actually, no, this is what I suddenly thought, now I can do it if I can, and I must stop it when I can't.

Moreover, this is not considered a school, and it is not for teaching death to read, but for teaching what one should know. "

The old patriarch nodded: "This is also good, I know, now there is no exam for scholar, it's good to learn these."

As he said that, he began to tell everyone: "Let me tell you, the nephew of an uncle's daughter-in-law on my mother's side said that the county is now opening a new school, and in the future, it will also accept us children from the countryside. "

Zhao Yuanle: "This..."

I feel that the old patriarch has a lot of relatives.

The old patriarch: "But, as others have said, there is a quota for recruiting students, and only those who are smart can do it.

The small school run by our village will teach for a while, after that, the other villages will definitely not be able to compete with us. "

When the villagers heard this, they started whispering.

At this time, a woman asked loudly.

"Then what can I do after reading?"

The old patriarch: "If you study well and pass the exam, you can go to the school above, and after that, you can go to that kind of university, and you can be an official in the future."

When they heard about being an official, everyone was excited.

But there were still voices of doubt, and one of them said, "Then, we kids, where did we read other ones?"

The old patriarch knocked his cane on the ground angrily.

"No ambition! I've heard it all. Now, what I learn is different from what I used to learn. Besides, when the time comes, I will learn all the way and teach like a teacher. Maybe our children are stupid?
As long as you are willing to endure hardship and work hard, no one will fail the exam. "

After hearing this, Zhao Yuanle couldn't help interjecting: "That's right, when the time comes, the test will not only be about writing essays and poems, but also some questions, and you have to calculate it yourself, and you will get points if you do the calculations.

As long as the score is high, you can get in. "

The old patriarch looked at Zhao Yuanle with a smile: "You still know, your school is doing well."

Saying that, the old patriarch looked at the others again.

"As long as we produce one here, it is good."

Zhao Yuanle nodded.

"Well, you're right."

However, when the old patriarch thought about going to talk to these children, his face changed.

"Oh, why are boys and girls sitting mixed together?"

Zhao Yuanle: "According to his size."

The old patriarch: "What's the point? There are so many girls, why are you sitting in front of the boys?"

Zhao Yuanle: "The tall ones sit in the back, and the short ones sit in the front, that's all."

The old patriarch hesitated to speak, and after a moment of silence, he said: "Then it's better to separate the men and women, with a little space between them."

Zhao Yuanle looked at these children, as if men and women were sitting next to each other, really embarrassed.

Looking at the people around, they all agreed with the old patriarch's statement.

Sighing inwardly, Zhao Yuanle waved his hand: "According to the size, boys and girls are rearranged."...

Now, the problem of location is solved.

The old patriarch and others did not leave.

They stood outside, wanting to see how this first lesson was taught.

Yao'er stood aside, all eyes on her, feeling a little nervous.

In the eyes of everyone, Yao'er came to the front, walked on short legs, and walked up to the platform specially made for him.

He coughed twice as if imitating Zhao Yuanle.

"Hello everyone."

As soon as the sound came out, the people outside couldn't help laughing.

Yao'er calmed himself down, opened his book, picked up a small chalk, and wrote down two words one stroke at a time on the blackboard hanging beside him.

China.

Yaoer: "This is the name of our country."

The little crickets are below, and they are very supportive.

"What is a country?"

Wang Gou'er outside laughed and showed off to the people around him: "Did you see how brave my brother is?"

Mrs. Wang and Old Man Wang who came over some time stood aside, their two old faces were very pleased.

Old man Wang suddenly burst into tears.

"I haven't thought that there will be a child who studies at home."

Zhao Sancheng laughed at the side: "You see, the little cricket is so courageous, and he will definitely be promising in the future."

Yao'er heard the little cricket's question, coughed, and then praised.

"Good question, what is a country?

Country and family, first there is the country, then there is the family, the family is a small country, and the country is everyone.

A country is where we, who speak the same words, write the same characters, flow the blood of the same ancestors, a group of people, have always lived. "

The old patriarch nodded at the side, and then praised Zhao Sancheng: "Your family is so small, it will be terrible in the future, so small, can talk so much, and can reason."

Zhao Sancheng scratched his head, still feeling humble.

"He just has a good memory and recites a lot."

The old patriarch: "Looking at this eloquence, it doesn't look like a dead book."

Here, Yao'er continued this topic, recalling the words her sister said every time, facing the fellow countryman in front of her, she tidied herself up and spoke.

"Today is the first lesson, the characters we are going to learn are Huaxia and the country.

We need to know who we are, what kind of identity we are, what our ancestors were like, and what kind of culture we have. "

The follow-up is Yao'er's old business.

tell a story.

The origin and tradition of China, and its own characters.

Zhao Yuanle did not expect that other people in the village would be equally attentive when listening to these stories.

But the old patriarch had objections to the totem.

"We are dragons, not snakes."

Yao'er: "My sister said, we were originally snakes, but after defeating the carp tribe, we added carp scales, defeated the eagle tribe, so we had eagle claws, and then defeated the tiger tribe, we have tiger paw.

Moreover, Empress Nuwa has the body of a snake. "

The old patriarch stroked his beard and suddenly said, "That's where it comes from."

Seeing that no one had any objections, Yaoer continued to talk.

"Then, our clansmen defeated all the clansmen and became dragons..."

Zhao Yuanle, who was on the side, looked past the people who were listening carefully, and saw the kid from the next village coming over with pigweed on his back.

These children had never seen so many people in battle, and they sat there one by one, not daring to come over.

Zhao Yuanle walked over and said with a smile, "Are you here?"

The little boy with the bastard box nodded, and handed a bag of pigweed to Zhao Yuanle: "We won't come here anymore, because there is no pigweed left."

Zhao Yuanle: "It's okay, here we still have to make brushes, pick up pig hair, and make brushes. You can come here, and you will still have money."

As she spoke, she took a few pennies to the children.

And the little boy looked over there eagerly, looking at the small blackboard with envy in his eyes.

Zhao Yuanle's eyes softened.

In normal times, these children from the next-door village come back from time to time to listen to Yaoer's storytelling and learn to read.

But because it was far away, I had to go home quickly after a while.

Now, these few should be even more envious.

Thinking of these children, Zhao Yuanle thought of the villagers.

If she agrees to let the children from the next village come, then other people in the village will definitely not be convinced, saying that she is clinging to outsiders.
