When the prince of no descendants found out that he had a baby, he went crazy

Chapter 179 Chapter 178 Settling in an Empty Village
As for Uncle Gu and his wife, after Gu Hua chopped off the black panther's head and splashed blood all over Gu Yun's face and body, which scared her mad, the couple never came to see Gu Hua again.

In this regard, Gu Hua said that if he had not been concerned about his cousin Gu Chen, it would not be an exaggeration to kill Gu Yun for the stupid thing she had done, not to mention that he had just cut off a head in front of her, which scared her crazy.

Gu Hua mentioned Uncle Chen and Sun Chengfeng, and pointed to a row of empty houses at the foot of the mountain that she had paid for to build, and said, "If jade is not carved, it will not become a useful object; if people do not learn, they will not know the righteousness of morality.

No matter where people are, education should not be lost. Are you two willing to be teachers for a while during this period? "

Everyone was stunned.

When Gu Hua built these houses and they were empty, they said she was wasting money. It turned out that Gu Hua built them as schools for everyone's children.

Suddenly, Gu Hua's image became more majestic in their hearts.

Gu Hua didn't know what everyone was thinking. If she knew, she would definitely speak frankly. When she built these schools, the first thing she thought of was her own children, and enrolling other people's children to study was just a side job.

But no matter what, Gu Huagai School is a great thing for everyone.

"I thought you had forgotten about us two old guys." Uncle Chen was very happy to know that he was useful, but he still said a little aggrievedly: "So you are waiting for me and Brother Sun here."

Sun Chengfeng had the same idea as Uncle Chen. They originally thought that they were too old and Gu Hua didn't have anything suitable for them to do, and they felt a little disappointed.

Unexpectedly, Gu Hua gave him and Uncle Chen the task of teaching and educating people. He suddenly became motivated again, "Brother Chen and I are both from the imperial examination system. There is no one more suitable for us than being a teacher."

Seeing that the two elders did not feel that they were wasting their talents by asking them to teach the children, Gu Hua admired their character and moral conduct even more.

However, Gu Hua's next sentence still made everyone stunned.

Gu Hua: "Everyone listen, I built this school and both men and women can enroll."

Some people disagreed and said, "How can a girl go to school?"

Gu Hua glanced at the person who was speaking, his expression serious and earnest, "If you look down on women, you can leave here and live in the newly built village over there. In the future, the school built by a woman like me will not accept your son to study."

"This..." The man knew that his words were wrong and quickly made amends, "I... I didn't say that I wouldn't let my daughter go to school."

Gu Hua also knew that it would be difficult to change the deep-rooted idea of ​​favoring boys over girls in this era in a short period of time, and he only hoped to improve the status of women here within his ability.

Gu Hua knew that more families were unwilling to send their girls to school because they were unwilling to pay them tuition.

So, to the best of her ability, she made a rule in the school she built that was of vital importance to girls.

Gu Hua looked calm and solemn as he announced: "All girls who are sent to the school I built will study for free for five years. Those who excel in their studies will receive an outstanding student subsidy of one tael of silver per year."

Gu Hua was worried that there were still families that favored boys over girls and couldn't figure it out for a while, so he pointed out Shen Hongxuan and Zuo Xianghan, who had received a good education since childhood, and said, "You can see that it's not useless for girls to study.

I also hope that you can treat your daughters and sons equally. They are all your own children. If any of them succeed, it will be a glory for you as parents."

The parents who originally held old ideas began to loosen and change their ideas of favoring boys over girls due to the examples of Shen Hongxuan and Zuo Xianghan who were being promoted.

Zuo Xianghan and Shen Hongxuan knew that Gu Hua intended to improve the status of women, so they sat up straighter, their eyes calm and firm, revealing a restrained and resolute temperament.

Those who secretly observe them around them feel that girls will indeed become better after studying.

Then Gu Hua arranged for Zhang Shanhu and Dagui to stay behind with the guards to guard the villa...

After settling down here.

The next day, Gu Hua took Han Jinyan, Ergui, and the Shen sisters Shen Hongling and Shen Hongwei who volunteered to follow, and left as everyone watched.

...Shuzhou City.

After Gu Hua left, Xiao Junlin secretly ordered people to find a lot of things for Wei Xingba to do to keep him busy so that he would have no time to cause trouble for Gu Hua and the others.

Wei Xingba discovered that some voices unfavorable to him were emerging in the Shuzhou Army, which he thought was under his control. After investigation, he found that someone had gained connections in the court and took advantage of the emperor's favorite concubine in order to step him down and take over the Shuzhou Army.

This made Wei Xingba, who had originally planned to settle accounts with Gu Hua and kill Xiao Junlin, temporarily unable to pay attention to them.

He thought that since both of them were under his nose, it was up to him to decide when to deal with them.

Xiao Junlin reunited with Gu Hua. When he received the emperor's edict to leave his fiefdom, he left his 10,000 personal soldiers in Shuzhou and only brought 500 personal guards back to Beijing.

Facing the first rays of sunlight at dawn, the group traveled light and headed for the capital...

What they saw on the road was even more desolate than when they were exiled last year.

They even encountered cannibalism when passing through the mountains and wilderness.

That day, in order to speed up their journey, Gu Hua and his companions passed the post station where they were originally staying.

In the evening, we passed a village surrounded by high walls.

Xiao Junlin and Gu Hua brought their people in, preparing to rest here for a night.

But I saw the whole village was empty.

However, everyone had seen many villages like this along the way, and they all thought that the people here were like those in other villages and had long since fled away to escape famine.

Xiao Junlin took a look at the strange village and ordered: "People who patrol at night must not slack off."

"Yes."

Ye Ping and his men cleaned out two relatively clean farmhouses. Xiao Junlin and Gu Hua moved in with the Shen sisters in the adjacent yards.

Han Jinyan and Ergui live in the side room.

After finishing his meal, Gu Hua strolled around the village. He felt as if someone had lived in the village recently.

Otherwise, the water seeping from the well in the north of the village should not be so clean, without fallen leaves, dead branches and other things that can be easily blown in by the wind.

Gu Hua searched carefully and found a slight noise under a family's haystack.

When Gu Hua dug up the haystack, he found a cellar underneath. He opened the wooden cover with a gap and saw a small figure huddled in the cellar in the darkness.

It seemed that he had been hiding in the cellar for a long time and had fallen into a coma due to hunger and fright, which was why he made the slight noise unintentionally.

……

A team of 500 people moved into the village. The people watching from the hillside frowned and said, "Third leader, these people don't look easy to mess with. Should we still rob them?"

Another person said ambitiously: "These people are riding horses, and they carry their own food. If we rob them, the horses and food will be ours."

Li Zhong stared at a courtyard in the village with his vicious and sinister eyes, and smiled sinisterly, "We meet again."
