Chapter 1166 The New Generation of the Empire (Second update, please subscribe)
The morning sun shines into the room through the window, and the curtains sway in the breeze. There are some light and shadows on the white wall, and the books on the desk are neatly arranged.
The light blue short-sleeved jacket and skirt, paired with a navy blue midi skirt, white gauze socks and round-toed flat calfskin sandals, are simple, concise and elegant, and reveal the charm of Chinese national costumes. The uniforms of the girls' schools in the empire are not limited to sailor suits and blue cloth skirts. At least in private schools, in order to highlight their different styles, modified jackets and skirts are used as school uniforms. Peide Girls' High School is no exception. For a school with a tuition fee of more than 100 yuan a year, the tailor-made school uniforms themselves are a reflection of its style.
Unlike public schools, private schools do not receive imperial education subsidies. They rely on high tuition fees and external donations to operate, but this does not prevent dignitaries from sending their children to private schools.
Looking at the refreshed self in the mirror made Li Yuxin feel very happy.
She remembered the action of a heroine in a movie, spinning on the spot with her left foot as the center of gravity. Her braids and blue cloth skirt fluttered together, almost exposing her thighs.
"ah!"
She was so scared that she stopped immediately and held down her skirt with a blushing face.
The tailor-made school uniform is very nice, with exquisite workmanship and high-quality fabrics. However, the skirt is a bit short, with the hem about 20 centimeters below the knee, revealing a lot of calves. Fortunately, the long socks can cover it up.
Although her face was blushing, she couldn't help but spin a few more times...
After getting dressed, Li Yuxin tidied herself up again. She looked at herself in the mirror and nodded with satisfaction.
very good.
Li Yuxin left very early. When she left home, most of the students were still eating at home. She rode her bicycle along the bicycle path on the side of the road towards the school. There were only a few students going to school on the side of the road. When they saw her dress, they all looked at her.
Most of them were boys, those wearing white shirts and navy blue trousers, all looking at her with amazement.
In the Ming Dynasty, the junior high school and above implemented the system of separate schools for boys and girls. There was no other way. For the Chinese people who were used to the separation of boys and girls, some habits always needed to be changed slowly. After all, a few years ago, the senior primary school (grades 5 and 6) in the Ming Dynasty also implemented the system of separate schools. At that time, only the junior primary school did not have separate schools.
When adolescent boys see girls, they always look at them a few more times. But when they see pretty girls, they will do more than just look at them a few more times.
However, Li Yuxin didn't even look at the admiring eyes around her. She rode her bike directly to the Sixth Middle School and waited there pushing her bike.
Who is she waiting for?
The appearance of the girls from Peide Girls' High School naturally attracted many people's attention, not to mention the male students who were fourteen or fifteen years old, even the principal and instructors who were on duty at the school gate to greet teachers and students couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Li Yuxin, who was standing next to her bicycle, seemed to be oblivious to all this. Suddenly, a figure came into her sight.
"Brother Xiaowen."
When she saw him from a distance, Li Yuxin walked over quickly with joy on her face.
Kang Wen, who was rushing to school with his classmates, was startled by the girl who suddenly appeared.
"Yu, Yuxin, why... are you here?"
"Why can't I come!"
Li Yuxin looked at him with a smile.
"Didn't you say you'd have time to write to me during the sports meet? It's been several months, and I haven't received a letter from you. Are you too busy with classes?"
Although everyone on the roadside looked at them with surprise, curiosity, or laughter, the girl seemed to see nothing. At this moment, it seemed that she only had eyes for this boy.
When he didn't say anything, she continued.
"That's right. Brother Xiaowen is already in high school. His studies must be very busy. By the way, have you had breakfast? Otherwise, I'll treat you to breakfast..."
Seeing his classmates, alumni and even teachers looking at him, Kang Wen quickly spoke.
"I, I've eaten. Xinyu, please go back to school. I promise to write you a letter today."
Seeing Kang Wen's embarrassed look, Li Yuxin said with a smile.
"Promise me!"
Finally left.
Just as Kang Wenchang breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the pretty figure going away, a good friend ran up to him and joked.
"Brother Wen, you are really good, Peide Girls' High School..."
"It's still so beautiful!"
"Haha...Brother Xiaowen..."
Li Zhifei asked as her friends imitated her words in a cheesy way.
"Kang Wen, who is she? Why haven't I seen her before?"
"My childhood neighbor,"
Kang Wen said.
"Her father used to work in the same factory as my father. He was a technician, but later he invented something and started his own factory..."
Then what?
The gap between the two families became increasingly larger. As their family moved out of the community, the childhood sweethearts lost contact until they met again at a sports meeting a few months ago.
But what if we met?
Seeing that Kang Wen seemed a little disappointed, his classmates stopped teasing him. After arriving at the classroom, although his classmates were pointing and talking about topics like "Peide" and "girls", Kang Wen, as the person involved, just simply greeted them and sat down casually.
Soon, the classroom became quiet. The classroom was quiet and peaceful in the early morning, with only the chirping of birds in the trees outside and the rustling sound of students' pens scratching on paper.
The sun shines in, casting a golden glow on the classroom. They are all senior high school students. In a month, they will need to take the joint entrance examination. Then what? After the results are announced, they can use the results to apply for admission to various schools and departments.
Although they are from Nanhua, the university in Nanhua will not give them any preferential treatment because they are Nanhua citizens - except for 25% of the university admissions, the other 75% are allocated to the states and provinces according to the population ratio. This also means that it is more difficult to get into a famous university in a region with excellent educational resources like Nanhua than in remote areas, because there are more excellent students here, so the admission score is naturally higher.
However, since campus recruitment has always been the privilege of geniuses, most students are directly excluded. For ordinary students, all they want is to be admitted to an ordinary university, even a junior college is acceptable.
But for most people, they have no choice. After all, there are only so many places in universities. Not all high school students can get into university. Even technical colleges have their thresholds.
The pen tip wrote on the paper with a rustling sound.
They are all names of schools, names of some technical colleges, but...
"Or I could be a crew member, but am I going to be a boatswain for the rest of my life?"
Kang Wen bit the tip of his pen, feeling somewhat unwilling. While feeling unwilling, he once again opened his notebook, which contained clippings cut from newspapers.
The content of the clipping was simple: a recruitment advertisement posted by the Tang Consulate, which said that as long as students were excellent in academics and could pass the national entrance examination, the Tang Consulate would provide them with scholarships, living expenses and other subsidies to help them apply for admission to the corresponding colleges and universities.
Of course, this is not without cost. The cost is that they have to go to Tang Kingdom after graduation...
Kang Wen couldn't help feeling a little melancholy. His father often
But...it's still an opportunity to go to college!
