Feng Heming

Chapter 264 made a fortune

Jiang Yuanxi accompanied Cui Yushu to finish the side dishes, packed up the food box and left.

She didn't talk about this topic any more, just like Cui Yushu watched her grow up, she also had childhood sweethearts with Cui Yushu, knew his character very well, and knew what he said was the truth.

The eldest lady of the Cui family married her eldest brother as his wife, and the Jiang and Cui families are veritable in-laws.

However, it is necessary to be defensive. Jiang Yuanxi believes in Cui Yushu, but he still has people brought from the Cui family. Who knows who these people really obey behind the scenes?
Jiang Yuanxi sent the Jiang family's trilogy to guard the only way from Danyang County to the outside world, just in case.

With Xu Feng's cooperation, Jiang Yuanxi quickly understood the affairs of Danyang County clearly.

"Master Xu, I don't know how many Mengtong children can read and how many young people can read in Danyang County?" Jiang Yuanxi asked.

Xu Feng sighed, "Few! Very few! This place is too closed, and not many scholars come here. Even if I went to the neighboring county to invite Mr. Private School, they stayed here for less than a year, and they left one after another. , Not everyone can bear this kind of loneliness away from the bustling. Those who can read and write are all hired by me to work in the county government."

Jiang Yuanxi didn't expect that the illiteracy situation in Danyang County was so serious, and felt a little tricky.

"Master Xu, I'm going to build a college in the county to let Mongolian children and young people over six years old and under 25 years old come to study. What do you think? If it is possible, I even want to send children over six years old and under [-] years old. Ladies are also taken in and taught to read and write."

Xu Feng was taken aback by Jiang Yuanxi's words, and soon, this old man who had been working hard for the people of Danyang County stood up and respectfully gave Jiang Yuanxi a big gift, "On behalf of the people of Danyang County, I thank you for your kindness."

Jiang Yuanxi sat steadily, and let Xu Feng sit down after he finished his salute. He heard Xu Feng ask her inexplicably, "My lord, let Mengtong and young people come to study in the academy. I understand this. Why not?" Want the girls to come too? I'm worried that there won't be enough husbands."

At that time, it was generally the idea that "it is the business of gentlemen to benefit from reading". Jiang Yuanxi knew that even Xu Feng felt that reading was a priority for gentlemen.

Perhaps it was because she felt that it was a little embarrassing for Jiang Yuanxi to say this in front of her. After all, she is also a little lady. Xu Feng was about to say something to show that he did not mean to look down on Jiang Yuanxi, when Jiang Yuanxi waved his hand and said:

"Since ancient times, after a woman gets married, she will take care of her husband and raise her children in her husband's family. Among them, how can an illiterate woman take on the important task of raising children?
It is said that the father has a raging litter and the mother has three raging generations.Men have to work hard outside and leave the housework to women. If it is an illiterate, vulgar woman, or a woman who has read books and understands the truth of the world, which one will teach better children? "

Xu Feng blurted out, "Of course, the children taught by educated women are better."

"Precepts and deeds, nothing more than that." Jiang Yuanxi nodded, "A woman spends her whole life in the inner house, from son to grandson, marrying a wife and a virtuous man. If she marries a troublesome woman, the family will be ruined from the root. Sex is not good, how many daughters of a good family dare to marry into this family?"

Xu Feng nodded in agreement.

"Ordinary common people pay too much attention to their sons and neglect their daughters. In our aristocratic family, no matter whether you are a gentleman or a young lady, you must be able to read and write. Everyone hopes that the wife you marry will be a learned person, so the aristocratic family Among them, some young ladies are as knowledgeable as the gentleman. Besides, only reading can make people understand, and those who are uncivilized are barbarians, how can we be such barbarians?"

Xu Feng nodded repeatedly, and suddenly smiled, "Just like an adult, your knowledge is better than most men?"

Jiang Yuanxi laughed, "Yes, I hope that all the girls in Danyang County are like me, and they are all better educated than men."

Xu Feng nodded, "So I understand your lord's intentions. In this way, the little ladies really have to study and benefit together."

I felt very emotional in my heart, I used to think that the Holy Majesty sent a little lady to be the magistrate, maybe the Holy Majesty was drunk and messed up, but now I am glad that it was Jiang Yuanxi who came.

She even thought about the little ladies, if five or ten years later, all the little ladies in the county can read and write, then what will the situation of the county be like in twenty or thirty years?

As long as he thinks of that kind of prosperous scene, Xu Feng will tremble slightly with excitement, even if he can't see it in the future, he will become one of the founders of all this.

The two reached an agreement, and Xu Feng was troubled by the teacher.

"My lord, if it is true that Mengtong, the gentleman, and the ladies are all enrolled in school, at least twenty of them, sir?"

Xu Feng was not without worries. Where did he find so many gentlemen? After the household registration was re-registered, Danyang County had a total of 180 households with a population of 210, including more than 300 children under the age of ten. People, there are more than 20 young people under the age of 800, not even young ladies, even Mongolian children plus young people have thousands of people, at least twenty or so gentlemen.

Jiang Yuanxi tapped on the desk lightly, thought for a while, and said, "It's easy for young ladies to read books. It's too late to teach them to be talented, but you have to learn the simple enlightenment books. I brought them from home. A lot of maids came, and they were all literate, so my cousin took the lead and led the maids to teach the little girls how to read and write.

This is the teaching method for girls from the age of 12. For girls under the age of 12, I will find a serious gentleman to teach them to read. It will take a few years to change slowly. "

Xu Feng had mixed feelings in his heart. Even the maids around Jiang Yuanxi could read and write, and thinking that there would be more and more literate little girls in the county in the future, he cheered up again.

"Master Xu, there is something I need to tell you."

Jiang Yuanxi's expression was too serious, which made Xu Feng's heart rise involuntarily.

"Have you heard of the name of Duan Zhengzheng, a great Confucianist in the world?"

Xu Feng nodded, "Xiaguan has also traveled abroad, so he has naturally heard of Duan Gong's reputation."

Xu Feng's words stopped abruptly, as if someone was strangling his neck, his eyes were wide open, his fingers were trembling, and he still stuttered, "Duan Duan is that Duan Gong?"

Jiang Yuanxi smiled and understood what Xu Feng meant, "Yes, it is that Duke Duan."

"I got rich, I got rich, I found a treasure, it turned out to be that Duan Gong."

Xu Feng's face was extremely red, his eyes were full of excitement, and he could no longer find his composure.
