Madame is back after ten years away

Chapter 251 The Diligent and Motivated Yu Zihan (Part [-])
The corner of Shen Qing's mouth raised slightly, and said: "Yes, although this matter is difficult to do and may take a lot of time, there must be someone who will work hard for it, and I am one of them."

It seems to be a good decision to conduct a pilot in Xizhou.

Shen Qing was already thinking secretly, when to find a suitable place to build the academy.

At this moment, there were some slight movements in the inner room. Shen Qing turned her head to look, and saw a handsome man in white clothes opened the curtain and came out. He had just woken up, but his whole body was still neat and tidy. , Meticulous, the original phoenix eyes that were deeply cold saw Shen Qing, subconsciously turned soft, walked over and said: "What are you doing?"

Shen Qing first asked Qing'er to go to the back kitchen to bring some food, then raised her head and looked at Yu Jiuqing with slightly curved eyes, "I'm writing a plan to establish a women's academy, do you have any suggestions?"

Yu Jiuqing walked over, picked up Shen Qing's half-written plan, glanced at it, and said: "The idea is good, and your ability to handle things is beyond doubt, but the most difficult thing about this matter is not the idea and execution, but How to make people better accept this matter.

Most people think that it is useless for women to study, it is just a waste of time and money. Even if we introduce regulations that women can also participate in the imperial examination to become officials in the court, it is not difficult to predict that it will be resisted by scholars all over the world.

With your ambition, you will definitely not be satisfied that this is just an academy for leisure. In the future, you will definitely recruit students from the outside world and promote it in Daqi. However, if there is not enough preliminary preparation, I am afraid that not many people will be willing. Send your daughter to study here. "

Although Yu Jiuqing is used to giving priority to Shen Qing's ideas in everything, but he has always been fair when it comes to business, and he will not blindly support Shen Qing just because it is what Shen Qing wants to do.

And his opinions are often very useful.

Shen Qing nodded and said: "In the future, I do have the idea of ​​letting women take part in the imperial examinations to become officials in the court, but now the world is still uncertain, we still need to win the hearts of the people, and it is not appropriate to be enemies of the scholars in the world, so in a short time, I will not introduce this regulation.

But you are right, if there are not enough reasons and public opinion environment, I am afraid that not many people are willing to send their daughters to study in colleges.

It is not difficult to build up public opinion. As long as we unite with the local aristocratic families in Xizhou and get their support, seeing that even the aristocratic families are willing to send their daughters to study in the academy, other people will definitely have some ideas. "

It's just that it must be a matter of painstaking effort to win the support of the local aristocratic families in Xizhou.

Yu Jiuqing looked at Shen Qing and said, "Then what is the reason for letting the girl study in the academy?"

Most people act for profit, and few people will do things that are not beneficial, especially some people whose lives are not particularly affluent.

For example, if a family removes daily needs and the remaining money can only send one child to study, then their first consideration must be to send a boy. If a family has more than one boy, they will choose according to the age or talent of the child. Send children to school.

In this process, women are always the first to be eliminated, because the idea that women's studies are useless is deeply ingrained.

Therefore, for the public opinion environment, it is the most important thing for them to have a strong reason to send their daughters to the academy.

If there are enough benefits, even if the remaining money of a family can only support one child to study, while giving their son a chance, they may not be willing to save money and send their daughter to study.

There may even be some families who give priority to sending their daughters to school, simply to see if the benefits of this matter are large enough.

Shen Qing narrowed her eyes, and said meaningfully: "The reason for studying, I have an idea, it just depends on whether Zihan is willing to cooperate with me."

Yu Jiuqing was slightly taken aback.

Shen Qing suddenly changed the subject, and said with a smile: "After Zihan comes back tonight, I will pick out clothes for you to attend the dust-cleaning banquet tomorrow. Tomorrow is our first official appearance in Xizhou, so we can't be careless. The bigger the style, the better!"

Yu Jiuqing was silent. Although he felt a little weird, he didn't say anything.

Qingqing is not a person who likes to show off. In the past, she paid more attention to these sophisticated banquets than him. Jiang Chengyi has always been the one who took the trouble to maintain various interpersonal relationships for them.

Although Yu Jiuqing was a little surprised that she suddenly attached so much importance to tomorrow's cleansing banquet, she also knew that she must have her own reasons.

Shen Qing was in a good mood today, and at night, regardless of Yu Jiuqing's obstruction, she cooked a sumptuous dinner herself.

Yu Jiuqing stayed at home all day today on the grounds that he needed to rest after running around for days, wishing he could stay with Shen Qing for twelve hours a day.

After Shen Qing finished his dinner, he had someone light up the lights in the yard, and sat in the gazebo where he had breakfast in the morning, drinking hot tea with Yu Jiuqing and chatting casually while waiting for Yu Zihan to come back.

She couldn't help feeling secretly, unexpectedly, the most diligent and motivated person in this family is her son.

Yu Zihan didn't make them wait too long, and came back not long after it got dark.

After a distance, Shen Qing saw a shorter boy walking towards them quickly, with a smile in his eyes, and just wanted to call him, but when he saw Yu Zihan's appearance, his expression turned pale. A slight change.

But seeing the young man who was fine when he went out in the morning, his face was covered with bruises and bruises, his handsome face was dark, his beautiful phoenix eyes were full of obvious anger, obviously He had just had a serious fight with someone.

Shen Qing's heart tightened slightly, and she immediately stepped forward and frowned, "What's wrong? Did something happen today?"

Although everyone said that the child had acted very absurdly and rebelliously in the past few years, and fights were common.

But at least, since she's been back for so long, she has never seen Zihan fight with anyone, let alone get such a serious injury because of the fight.

Yu Zihan pursed the corners of his lips, and said angrily: "There is a very arrogant and vicious guy in the army. I had some quarrels with him, and we started fighting. I was going to win the fight, but who knew that General Liu would find out?" Shouting stopped.

It's really annoying, that kind of disgusting guy should be taught a lesson! "

Shen Qing frowned, and said: "Who is that person? How old is this year?"

"That guy's name is Chen Hongyi. He's two years older than me. He's always accompanied by a group of followers. I heard that he's the lord of the Chen family in Xizhou. Everyone around him is rushing to please him."

The Chen family...

Shen Qing's eyes flickered slightly.

These days, she got acquainted with the aristocratic families in Xizhou through Liu Zhao, so she knew that the Chen family was a relatively powerful family among them.

Speaking of which, the head of the Chen family and she are old acquaintances, and they are a branch of the Kaiyang County Government in the capital.

The governor of Xizhou came from the Chen family. Although the presence and real power of the governor in a border town like Xizhou was far lower than that of the general who defended the city, it was still a symbol of status.

It is quite normal for such a family to let their own lord enter the military camp early for training.
