Liu An Hua Ming You Yi Village

Chapter 63

It takes about a day to walk from Yangliu Village to the county seat. When Du Yu and the others arrived at the city gate, it was just in time for the city gate to be closed. At this time, all the county towns have city walls, and of course there are people guarding the city gates. When it's time to open and close the gate, if it's late, I'm sorry, you can go outside the city gate and wait for tomorrow.

It was getting late, and the group of them found an inn to stay for one night to clean up the dust before reporting to Jinxi Academy the next day.

But Du Yu actually heard that Jinxi Academy is in the suburbs outside the county seat, so why did he go to the city? Isn't this the wrong way?

It turns out that this Jinxi Academy is still linked to the county government, and it is a half-public and half-private learning place.The official school in Yunyang County was originally located in the county, but later this Jinxi Academy became more and more famous, and most of the students in the county went to the academy to study. There was a county magistrate who thought that instead of being alone To run a government school, it is better to cooperate with Jinxi Academy, so it came down like this.

Du Youzhong had to go to the county government office the next morning to find an instruction letter to get the same thing as the letter of appointment, so he stayed in the county seat today.

Du Yu was very excited. After all, she felt that she had been staying in Yangliu Village, and the farthest place she went was Panshui Town. Everyone in a big place wanted to visit.

The county seat must be much more lively than Panshui Town.

Everyone took a hot bath and went to bed early because they were tired from the journey.

The next day Uncle Hu accompanied Du Youzhong to look for Jiaoyu, and Mrs. Hu wanted to buy some daily necessities, such as salt and soy sauce.

The Qi family didn't let them bring these things, because they heard that the county town was cheaper than their small place, so that's why.

This county town is lively and crowded, but compared to the people Du Yu met in modern times, they are nothing compared to the people Du Yu met in modern times.

You must know that at this time, tens of millions of people in a country are very good. With a population of billions in modern times, when they go to a lively place, they are really close to each other.

Especially when traveling during holidays, you can only see heads and nothing.

There is only one street in the county town paved with bluestone slabs, which is only about two meters wide, but Erlang looked very excited.

Around noon, they went back to the inn, met Uncle Hu and Du Youzhong who had already returned, and then set off outside the city, which was to go to Jinxi Academy.

Jinxi Academy is located in the eastern outskirts of Yunyang County, about ten miles away from the county seat, which is not too far away.

Moreover, there are official roads along the way, and the transportation is convenient.When Du Yu and his family went, it was not in the morning, so they didn't meet the students who came and went.

"Here we are!" Du Youzhong has been here once, Jinxi Academy is a very good academy, with blue tiles and white walls, hidden in the lush bamboo forest, it looks very quiet.

Right above the gate of the academy, there are four big characters of Jinxi Academy, but Du Yu and the others entered from the side entrance. The main entrance is usually not open, and students come in through the side entrance, unless it is the county magistrate or a big person. Only then will the front door be opened.

The guard at the gate read Du Youzhong's letter of appointment, and hurriedly led him to the arranged place.

Du Youzhong went to see the dean of Jinxi Academy, and a young servant took a servant woman and led Du Yu and the others to a place on the west side of the academy.

This is probably the family area.When everyone saw it, it was no different from their home, but it was four rooms, and then surrounded by walls.It became an independent small courtyard.

It is also made of blue bricks and white walls, but it is much better than the houses in the country.

"Miss Du, this is the key to the gate of the courtyard. If you need anything in the future, you can come to me directly. I live at the corner just now." This maid is a servant of the dean's house, and she comes here to do logistics some type of.

"Thank you, Mrs. Wang, I will trouble you in the future." Hu said with a smile.

Aunt Wang left here to go back, but on the way, she also met many family members who used to live here, and they all asked her where the newcomers were from and what their background was.

Aunt Wang also picked up what should be said.One of the women, who was wearing a peach-red double-breasted top and a pink horse-face skirt, said, "Hey, who did I think it was? It turned out that he was just a scholar, or a scholar among talents. Such a person was also invited, and I Say, what is this academy for, all cats and dogs can come in."

As soon as the woman finished speaking, someone couldn't get used to it and choked with her.Because many people's husbands were born as scholars, and they are still talents now.Talking like this, apart from satirizing the family who just arrived, it is also telling them all.

"If you are not convinced, you go out, and you come to talk about the right and wrong of the academy. I said that some people are just a piece of mouse droppings, which ruined a pot of soup!"

"Come on, come on, don't talk about it, what does this quarrel look like? This is an academy, not the countryside, what is the quarrel like?"

Aunt Wang also said: "Okay, don't talk about it, it's fate for everyone to be together, okay."

Although Aunt Wang is a servant, she has a lot of power in her hands. After all, the academy is the property of the dean's family, and she is the person sent by the dean's family to manage affairs.So when she opened her mouth, everyone didn't say anything, and they had something to do, so they all dispersed.

The woman in the peach red coat turned out to have a husband who is a gentleman.Consciously, she is superior to everyone else, but the reason why she choked up today is because when she came here, Aunt Wang didn’t come to pick her up, so I saw that Aunt Wang went to pick up someone today, so I just asked She is a scholar, and the anger in her heart can be imagined.

The woman looked young, and she was dressed very brightly, but her husband was a juren.

It's not because her husband is a young genius. After all, there are not many talented people among young people, let alone Juren. This woman's husband is in her forties, and she looks at most in her twenties, so this woman The man married her husband as a fill-in house.

And it wasn't long after they were newly married, and they came here with their husband at the beginning of the year.

As soon as she came here, she did nothing, relying on being a lovely wife, her husband bought her a maid to serve her. Why didn't she buy a maid? What about her husband?
The mother-in-law is fine, she can do the work, and if she compares herself with herself, she will give heaven and earth, and she will be able to take advantage of her goodness.

But this woman has only been here for a few months, and everyone doesn't like it.She looks down on people, speaks harshly, and always feels that others are inferior to her.On several occasions, I even quarreled with others.

Aunt Wang has dealt with it several times.Every time there is nothing to do.Fortunately, this woman's husband is good at teaching, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to stay here any longer.

Du Yu and the others cleaned the house first. According to what Mrs. Wang said, they carried water and washed it once. They even wiped the bed. move.

It is estimated that someone lived in this yard before, and there is a canna bush in the yard.

There are four beds, one bed in each room.Hu Xin said that he slept in a room with Dalang and Erlang, so the room for the three of them was two beds, and they moved in from another room.

Fortunately, they only brought two carts of stuff, not too much, so they spared one room to store a few things, and kept the rest as their study for writing and reading.

Du Yu was very lucky to get a separate room. Although there are things to put in it, Du Yu is also happy. It is really nice to have a private space. She thinks about decorating the room slowly in the future.

There are still a few vegetables growing in the yard, probably planted by the people in front.Here's what's left.

Du Yu discussed with Hu Shi, since the two of them will have nothing to do after this, so if they stay here, they might as well grow vegetables, at least they can save money on vegetables.

"When the luck came, I brought a bag of vegetable seeds, and when things are arranged, we will plant them." Hu said.

The purpose of her coming here is to take care of these masters and arrange their lives.

I also asked Mrs. Wang just now. In the morning, there are some villagers in the vicinity who sell vegetables with burdens or baskets, and they buy them for their family members of the academy.

It is true that where there is demand, there is business.However, these villagers cannot enter the academy, they are all sold at the gate in the northwest corner.As for buying meat and fish, anyway, the county town is not far away, so just go directly.

Some students would even give these fish meat to their favorite husbands, and there were not a few young masters from rich families in the academy.At noon, if I don't want to eat the food brought by my family, I will go to my husband's for a while.

"I'm exhausted!" Du Yu spread out the quilt and felt that he was about to collapse from exhaustion. His physical strength is not good enough. He must find a way to exercise in the future.

After Hu packed up her and her husband's house, she went to prepare lunch.

That's right, there is a small place that is not covered by half of the room, which is used as a kitchen. Looking at it like this, it seems that it was built later.The stove is also relatively small, and it can't be compared with Du's stove, but it's better than nothing when you're away from home.

Du Yu was still thinking, if he bought a stove in the future, wouldn't it be good if he wanted to stew something directly in the stove?

Uncle Hu will go back tomorrow morning, and Du Youzhong will start teaching from tomorrow.And Dalang Erlang and Hu Xin will also be studying in the academy starting tomorrow.

Uncle Hu has already handed in all of Hu Xin's bundle repairs.

Dalang Erlang's Shuxiu, one can be exempted, but for the family members, Jinxi Academy only accepts a small amount of Shuxiu, which is much cheaper than outside.

If it wasn't for the fact that female students are not accepted here, Du Yu would have wanted to go to the school to have a look.
