Chapter 438 This Mr. Song is really careful

People in Huanggou Village on the other side of Qingshi Mountain make cement. Rong County is too poor to build its own cement kiln, so the cement for road construction is supplied by Qingshi Mountain.

The workshop clerk arranged for people to go to Qingshi Mountain to ask them to prepare cement adhesive for wall construction.

They were all acquaintances, so they stayed in the Su family's guest room and discussed the layout of the women's official school with Song Xuanyu and Master Liu.

"Sir, are you really going to build a government-run school for girls?" Xie Qingyun, Su Lu, Pei Yuzhen, Wang Furu, and Pei Yuyao learned the news and went to Su Ying to confirm it.

"Yeah!" Su Ying looked at the girls with a smile, "Are you happy?"

"Happy!" The girls nodded, but also felt disappointed, "It's a pity we don't have the chance!"

"Who said that?" Su Ying asked.

"Didn't they say they only recruit girls under the age of eleven? We all passed!" Xie Qingyun said.

"There's no age limit for being a gentleman. Don't you want to be a lady gentleman?"

"Madam, Sir? Sir, this is a government school, not a village school. Can we do it?" The girls couldn't believe their ears.

It’s a government school for girls. Being a female student is a great thing. I never thought of myself as a female teacher.

"Are there any female teachers in Wu County or Wuzhou who are more knowledgeable than you?" Su Ying said with a smile.

"Yes! Sir, you are more knowledgeable than us!" Xie Qingyun said playfully.

"But I will leave Lingnan sooner or later." Su Ying put down the pen in her hand.

Rewrite the textbooks, summarize and compile them to be suitable for girls' studies.

Abacus, new mathematics, Baidiezi sugarcane planting, sericulture, silk reeling, textile, etc., as well as simple enterprise management structure and enterprise management.

Once the textile factory came into being, it meant the emergence of capitalism, which broke away from handicraft workshops and concentrated a large amount of manpower in production.

"Sir, if I become a female teacher in the government school, will I be unable to travel with you to study? Then I won't be a female teacher."

Xie Qingyun longed to see the wonderful world outside.

"That's right, sir, I don't want to be a female teacher either! I want to see the sea, ride a big ship, and see Chang'an!" Pei Yuyao pouted.

Now she can do whatever she wants with her abacus, and no one in Wu County can match her.

I heard that Ah Hei from Jinfengzhai won a golden abacus as a reward from the emperor in Chang'an for using a double abacus, and was given the title of "Golden Abacus of Lingnan"!

She also thought about going to Chang'an and competing with Ah Hei to see who was the best in Lingnan!

"No one says that female teachers can't go on study tours!" Su Ying held her forehead. These girls were innocent and romantic, and they were dreaming of studying abroad.

"Really?" The girls were delighted, but then disappointed. "If we all go on study tours, who will teach us?"

"Don't we still have your mothers in the village? They can teach practical classes like sericulture, silk reeling, and weaving. They can also teach literacy."

Madam Zheng and her friends were all wealthy and noble ladies back then. The teacher they hired was a famous scholar from Chang'an who was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Even Xie Qingyun and the others' knowledge and etiquette were inherited from their mother. Su Ying only taught them some abacus and modern common sense.

"Yes! That's great!" the girls cheered.

I got the job of a female teacher and still could continue my studies, which was the best of both worlds.

Mrs. Du and Yang Chunhua each held a child, Mrs. Wei was shaking a rattle, and the three sisters-in-law sat in the yard to bask in the sun and play with the children.

"Oh oh!" The twins heard the chirping laughter, looked in the direction of the sound, and babbled.

"Look, these two little guys love the fun!" Wei was amused and reached out to touch the little guy's face.

"Hmm!" Dabao frowned, not liking being teased.

"Oh, you're angry! Haha!" Wei made Dabao angry, and then went to make trouble for Xiaobao, who was also unhappy.

It was a rare mischievous act to make a child cry. "Waaa!" The brother and sister cried loudly.

"You, the third aunt, are not a good person. You just bully those who are young and don't know how to talk!" Mrs. Du slapped Mrs. Wei and scolded her with a smile.

"Hehe, this is fun!" Wei acted like a little girl, looking cute and innocent.

Now they don’t have to work, don’t have to worry about food and clothing, and have leisure time all day long. They feel much younger, and the three sisters-in-law often joke with each other.

Su Laoer named the eldest child Su Yuyan and the younger child Su Yang. The children were more than two months old and left home on the fourth day of the first lunar month and never returned.

Taking the managers to visit the governors of the five prefectures one by one, and then making a round of inspections and supervising the progress of work, it is a tough job to be the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Works.

"But are you hungry?" Mo Sanniang heard the crying and hurried out from the kitchen.

Without the evil-hearted in-laws, the child was buried in a Feng Shui site outside the village. She had no worries and she grew visibly plumper, with a full chest.

When the child cries, his chest gets wet.

I picked up Dabao. When he smelled Mo Sanniang's scent, he hummed and nudged into my arms like a little pig.

Huang Si Niang took two slow steps and picked up Xiao Bao. Xiao Bao was much more polite, and his soft little hums sounded more like he was acting coquettishly.

Both children are fat and white, thanks to the two wet nurses who feed them well every day and have enough milk, otherwise they would not be able to supply them.

Yang Chunhua didn't have much milk, so she stopped breastfeeding after one month and gradually recovered.

"Why are we suddenly setting up a government-run school for girls?" Wei listened to Su Ying and Xie Qingyun talking about the government-run school for girls.

"After the order for supporting education came down, many students came to set up schools, but there was no official school for girls. Only the girls in our Huanggou Village could read and write.

"The women's official school is pretty good! I guess it was Aying who proposed it!" Yang Chunhua said softly.

After the confinement period, her complexion became fair and rosy, her skin was as smooth as a baby's, her hair was black and shiny, she looked really moisturized and tender, like a beautiful girl in her early twenties.

"Of course, except for Ah Ying, who would have thought of this? Only she dared to think and act like this! Anyone else would have been drowned in spit."

Wei looked at Su Ying in the window, feeling envious and admiring. How great it would be if her own daughter could be so capable?

Song Xuanyu and Master Liu were drawing the silk reeling machine and textile loom and measuring their dimensions.

"No wonder their silk threads are so long and resilient! We all know it's related to the temperature of the reeling water, but we can't figure out how to fix it.

This young Master Su is truly a genius; he can easily solve the problem with the cold reeling method!" Song Xuanyu exclaimed as he painted.

Each design is complete and has its own purpose, including the charcoal brazier.

After drawing the silk reeling machine and the textile machine, Song Xuanyu felt that he had become an expert in silk reeling and textile.

"Go to the post station and send it back as soon as possible!" Song Xuanyu handed it to the janitor and turned to Su Ying's window when he had nothing to do.

"Is the painting finished?" Su Ying looked up.

"Yeah!" Song Xuanyu put his hands behind his back and looked at Su Ying.

I really can't understand what's going on in this girl's head to come up with such an ingenious design.

"Sir, the painting is done. Take a look at it. Is there anything wrong?" The workshop clerk shouted from the opposite side, rubbing his sore wrist.

"Well, is your dormitory too far from the toilet?" Song Xuanyu picked up the blueprint and looked at it.

"Sir, this is designed based on the layout of the county school." The clerk in the workshop replied.

"I save money, but this is a government school for girls. It's fine during the day, but it's inconvenient for girls at night. Besides, this is the end of the village, and timid people may not dare to get up at night." Song Xuanyu reminded.

Su Ying held her chin with both hands and listened. This Lord Song was really attentive.
