Spatial Farm Life: Raising My Kid, Abusing Scum, and Keeping Busy With Life

Chapter 192 Doing Good and Accumulating Virtue Everywhere

Of the four rooms in the south, Liu Hai took one of them. Seeing that there were a lot of people there, and sometimes the space was not enough, he rented the one next to him.

Originally, the two shops were worth ten taels of silver a month, but she asked the shopkeeper Niu to only charge them seven taels.

The Liu family was very happy and grateful to Qiao Mai, and wanted to invite her to have a meal at home, but unfortunately Qiao Mai refused.

She asked people to clean up the other two rooms and entrusted the dental office to renovate. At this moment, Ruyi brought her husband-in-law to find her.

"Master, my apprentice has come to see you."

"Why are you here at this time?" She glanced at her belly.

Ruyi blushed, "I heard you want to run a school?"

"Yes, many children from poor families in our town can't afford to go to school. I want to hire a teacher to teach these children. If there are smart and studious children, I will train them well."

"Hee hee, it happens that my husband is idle, why don't you invite him to teach?"

Qiao Mai glanced at the two of them and knew the character of the Qin family, so he said:

"Okay, I will give you ten taels of silver for Shuxiu a month, but you have to teach them carefully, and you can't deal with it just because they are enrolled for free?"

"Master, please don't worry, I will definitely teach them well," Qin Yide expressed his attitude immediately.

"Aren't you going to take the exam?"

Qin Yide replied: "Tao, I just want to find something to do, I don't want to stay at home all the time, and what's more, I want to move out with my wife."

"Is there a dispute at home?"

"It's all housework. There's no spoon that doesn't touch the edge of the pot. With this job, I have an excuse to come out with Ruyi."

"Well, your family members are all reasonable people, discuss it carefully, and if it doesn't work, call me."

"Yes, Master!"

This matter was decided so happily, and ten days later, the decoration of the two shops was completed.

The appearance is similar to Qiaoji snack shop, there are tables and chairs for children to rest in front, and they can write here if they have nothing to do.

In short, Qiao Mai didn't want to waste the large space in front of him, so a big sign was placed on the top of the two shops.

"Auspicious School"

Ruyi brought her dowry and her girl and woman into the school.

She knew that the master purposely gave her face, and when a scholar was a teacher, some schools gave at most two taels of silver a month, but the master gave her ten taels.

The back two yards were also opened up for her, and there was a complete set of new furniture inside.

Yiying's daily necessities are also very complete. Anyway, Ruyi wanted to help Master after hearing about this incident, which saved Qiao Mai the trouble of finding other people, and her husband-in-law also happened to be looking for something to do, so it hit it off.

The matter of enrolling students and starting school was naturally handed over to Qin Yide.

After he and Ruyi made everything safe, they posted a notice at the door, recruiting students for free, six to ten years old.

Anyone from a poor family who cannot afford to go to school can sign up, Qiao Mai told Liu Qiaoshi.

"Gu, let Bao'er go to the exam. Mr. Qin is a scholar, and his grades are good. Next year, he and Jiaqi will go to Beijing to catch the exam."

"Why don't you charge tuition?"

"How many people can afford it? I set up this school to let those children who can't afford to go to school come to class together."

Liu Qiaoshi said with emotion, "Your heart is so kind."

"My husband has loved to study since he was a child. He is a promising man. There are still many children from poor families like him. I want to give them a chance to turn around. Just prepare Bao'er the pens, inks, papers and inkstones he usually uses."

Liu Qiao took Liu Bao to sign up that day, he was the first child from the school to sign up.

Qiao Mai bought twenty sets of enlightenment books from the library, but these books belonged to the school, and the teacher would only distribute them to the students during class, and they would take them back when school was over.

As for the pen and ink, Qiao Mai thought about it and bought twenty stone drawing boards and twenty writing brushes from the platform. When they needed to write, let them dip the pens in water to write on the drawing boards, and then use a dry cloth One wipe, unlimited use.

Qin Yide thinks this thing is very good, if all the children use it, it will save a lot of money.

Even Liu Qiao's didn't buy paper and ink for the child anymore, so he let him use this too.

The matter of the Qiao family running a school once again caused a sensation in the small Tianshui Town. Everyone rushed to tell the story, and the mayor Qian came over to take a look in person. He stroked his beard and said yes repeatedly.

Mrs. Qiao has done another great deed. She really does good deeds everywhere.

Although the school is free, there are still not many people who sign up for the school. The reason is that most of the children at this age can help out with household chores. If they attend classes all day long, who will do the chores at home?

Some were reluctant and refused to let their children come. Qiao Mai couldn't laugh or cry when she heard that, she would pay the shop and the money, and even let them come for free.

I really don't know if they are stupid or if they are stupid.

However, there are also smart people who know that there is Yan Ruyu in the book, and there is a golden house in the book. They hope that their children can read and read, and they are willing to send their children to school even if they suffer a little bit of hardship and tiredness.

Before and after, there were fifteen families who came to sign up, all of whom were children of seven or eight years old.

The start of school was set on the first day of October, with one day off in the first ten days. This was discussed by Qin Yide and Qiao Mai.

These children are usually used to being wild, and they rest once a month, fearing that they will get tired of studying.

The children didn't have to go home at noon, Qiao Mai took care of them to have a meal, good or bad, to make them full.

Among these children was Chen's child, who was Chen Hao who played well with Feng'er and the others.

He was unhappy in Mr. Lin's school and was scolded every day, so he never went again in a fit of anger.

Mr. Lin did not refund his Shuxiu, and paid several months of money in vain.

Mrs. Chen was so angry that she attributed all this to Qiao Mai's offense against Mr. Lin.

She has been looking for opportunities to come here to take advantage of it, but facing such an imposing Qiao Mai, she dare not even step forward.

This gave her a chance to push the eleven-year-old Chen Hao to the school.

Qin Yide didn't say anything. He heard that she was a widow, and it was not easy to bring up a child. If she was over one year old, she would be over, so she agreed.

When Chen Hao learned that this was a school run by Qiao's family, his mind immediately came up, and he secretly went to Jixiangyuan to find Feng'er and the others.

It's a pity that they were all in class, so the mother-in-law didn't let him in.

But being close, he will be more motivated to study, and he won't be bored at home all day long.

On the first day of school, Mayor Qian also gave the school a pair of plaques, which said, teaching and educating people will last forever.

Those who can send their children to school have expectations for their children. Qin Yide is also from a poor family, so he naturally understands it very well.

He can't let Master Ruyi's money go to waste, and he will teach the dozen or so children very seriously every day. When the parents hear the children reading loudly outside, they feel that all the hard work is worth it.

Especially the meal that Qiao Mai took care of at noon was a great help to them. Half a child would eat to death. If he could save this meal, he could save a lot of food for the family for a year.

Regardless of this, their children can still eat well and eat well in school.

Although there is no big fish or meat, the meals sent by Jixiangyuan are either rice or steamed buns with Erhe noodles. There is a lot of oil and water in the stir-fry.

Those who did not send their children to the school regretted it a little. On the one hand, they were reluctant to part with the labor at home, and on the other hand, they were reluctant to part with the school meals.

Qiao Mai smiled after hearing this, this is why they are poor.

However, let them do as they please, and she won't rush to beg them if they don't come.

Mr. Lin sneered after knowing this, and went to mayor Qian's house to complain to him.

"Mayor, do you think this Mrs. Qiao has a grudge against Lin? She came to tear down my desk when I opened a private school, and she also wanted to open a school. Isn't this a way to steal people from me?"
