Chapter 628 (1/2)
Pei Xingjian was relieved at last. With the words of his highness, the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground. He went back to face the ancestors, which was also an explanation.
All of a sudden, none of the villagers dared to ask why the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, who were like heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals, wanted to build a simple wooden house. Even the most respected old master in the village did not know whether he was happy or sad when he looked at this scene.
Just now, someone was sent to ask for his opinions. But before he finished speaking, he was deemed to have agreed, and then the scene in front of him began.
The villagers, who had nothing to do on a snowy day, watched the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty eagerly drag the roots of trees and dozens of horses to the open space. A group of people borrowed brooms from the villagers' homes, which were slightly better than those tied with branches, and swept out a large area of open space.
As the villagers saw these soldiers doing their work, they talked and laughed one by one, and the tension and fear in their hearts gradually disappeared.
When people are not clear about an unknown food, they often choose to avoid it and observe it, just like a wild animal in the mountain.
But when you understand these people's habits and feel that they won't hurt themselves, or if you have enough self-protection ability in the face of these wild animals, you will become more and more courageous.
In less than an hour, villagers began to dare to surround the open space and watch the soldiers build wooden houses in the Tang Dynasty. When they knew that these wooden houses were the future schools, some people's faces showed a look of excitement, while others were still hesitant and did not want their sons and daughters to come to school.
”You dead ghost, why did you want to agree at the beginning? Why don't you tell me if you don't want to? Now that the school has been built, you don't want to let it go. You see, it's like a wolf like tiger. Do you dare to provoke it?” A middle-aged woman kicked the calf of the man next to him, and snorted discontentedly.
My family has little labor, and a lot of farmland was reclaimed last year. Four children, one by one, were younger than the other. In the previous two years, neither of them was able to help with the farm work.
Now I can't be dragged into labor. I can do some farm work for my family. However, I was hung on my neck with a crossbow and went to such a poor school.
What's the use of learning to read? It can't be used for food, and it can't grow crops. Can you recognize a few words? The crops in the field don't need to be planted, and they can come out by themselves.
”Why don't you say something less? Why don't you shrink in the corner of the wall with that black and cold guy The man habitually patted on the leg, originally full of footprints of the robe, said impatiently.
Some people quarreled and others were curious. After watching the soldiers who put down their weapons and picked up the boards were not as terrible as they thought, they began to test the soldiers who were working hard and had nothing to talk about.
”Big brother, why did you help those two build a school? Who are they? ”
”Yes, why help them? They have lived with us for a while
”Didn't you come to get them back to the city?”
”If you want to go back to the city, you can see that you are the sons and daughters of the rich and noble families. It's also good for us to build the school, but it's the magistrate of Xingyang county to make sure.”
”It's good to have it built, but who will learn from it? You can't let your husband run thirty miles to study here? ”
A few families are happy and worried about their families. If they can eat and have enough food and clothing, they will place their hope on the next generation. They hope that the next generation will be respected and respected like Mr. Lin Cun. Naturally, they are absolutely supportive of the construction of schools.
However, no matter what the villagers asked, none of the soldiers who worked hard were willing to answer their words.
Pei Xingjian is also full of doubts. It is good to build a school, but who will learn? We can't send the students of Chongwen hall here, can we?
