Dress up in a group and spoil my little aunt, I will make the whole family rich

Chapter 62
The decoration of the dormitory is extremely simple, with a few wooden cabinets on the left, and a big bunk against the wall on the right, with four beds separated by kang tables, and now only the place near the door is still vacant.

Putting Gu Shi's things on the bunk, Du Mingran suggested: "How about I take you around first, and make the bed after they wake up."

Gu Shi didn't refuse, and the two left the house together.

The Hongyuan Academy occupies an area that is actually quite small. This building is located at the back of the academy. There are five rooms in total, and there is a small courtyard next to it that is the dining hall.

Going out through the vertical flower door is the front yard, which is the place I saw when I looked back and Baobao Lin came.

Through Du Mingran's introduction, Gu Shi knew that there were nearly twenty students here in the first two years, but they all left for some reason, and only Feng Qing and Gao Shicai stayed.

"I heard that most of those people went to Luyuan Academy after they left the academy." Seeing that Gu Shi was not a talkative person, Du Mingran tried to find a topic: "Actually, I came here a month earlier than you. Told me."

Surprise flashed across Gu Shi's eyes. He studied well in a school and suddenly dropped out?Who will believe that there is no problem here?
Unlike Luyuan Academy, where the number of students can be counted on the palm of one's hand, more than [-]% of the students from Taohua Town gather there, and some even come to study from the neighboring town.

According to the students' achievements and grades, they are divided into different classes of A, B, C, and D, so even if Du Mingran has been studying there for many years, there are still many people he doesn't know, let alone know where those people studied.

Therefore, Du Mingran was also very surprised when he heard what Gao Shicai said.

There was nothing to visit in the backyard, so the two went to the study in the front yard together.

"The room next to it is Mr. Xu's room, and the two rooms on the opposite side used to be lecture rooms, but are now vacant."

The door of the study was not locked, only a piece of iron was tied to the lock, and Du Mingran pulled the iron away.

Pushing open the door, three rows of bookshelves as tall as an adult man were greeted, filled with books.

No wonder Gao Shicai said that there are a lot of books here, and Gu Shi has only seen so many books in Qingyizhai.

When I walked in, I saw a bookcase behind the three rows of books. There were not many books on it. It was not neatly arranged like the other three bookshelves, and it was more like being abandoned by the owner.

The most important thing is that the books are very old and dilapidated.

Noticing his gaze, Du Mingran explained: "The school provides everyone with four books and one chapter and sentence commentary, but they can't take them away. These books are used by the students who left."

Gu Shi casually picked up a copy, it had been too long, the pages had turned yellow, and there were dense annotations written on it, obviously it was left by the previous owner.

I read a few more books, and the situation is almost the same.

"Mr. Xu is easy-going, we don't have so many rules here, you can pick one and go first." Du Mingran said again.

Gu Shi nodded and began to choose carefully.

"Didn't you say there were nearly 20 people? Why are there only three sets here?"

Three and a half sets, to be exact.

He separated the books with the same handwriting, and one set was missing four books.

Du Mingran coughed lightly: "Sir loves wine, so he traded other books for wine."

Gu Shi: ...

In order to encourage more people to study for the imperial examination, unlike the previous dynasty where only officials could receive their salaries, nowadays as long as they are well-known, they can receive a certain amount of rice grain subsidies from the government every year.

But not much, and the share of Juren is enough to support one person. It is impossible for those who want to rely on these subsidies to be popular and drink spicy food.

So Mr. Xu has to make money if he wants to drink, but there are not many students in the school, so he has no choice but to sell books.

"I'm really worried that one day he will do something to those books." Du Mingran sighed and looked at the books on the other three rows of bookshelves with a sad face: "Let's read as many books as we can while they are still there."

There was a gentleman who traded books for wine, and Gu Shi was suddenly a little unsure whether his choice was correct.

Du Mingran himself was forced to be helpless, he guessed that Gu Shi stayed here because his family was poor and couldn't afford the expensive Shu Xiu from other academies.

All poor people.

He patted Gu Shi's shoulder sympathetically: "If you've made your choice, let's go. The two of them should be awake."

Poor Gu Shi: ...
