Traveling through the famine years with the system to raise cubs

Chapter 43 The County Magistrate Comes to My House 1

"Mom, this snack is really delicious!"

As soon as he walked out of the dim sum shop, Jiang Wenxi couldn't wait to open the dim sum package, took out a biscuit and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Suihe, you are here looking at your younger brothers and sisters, mother will come as soon as you go!" Jiang Ling said to Jiang Suhe after she left the dim sum shop and glanced at the study next to her.

Jiang Suihe didn't speak, but nodded obediently.

"My sister-in-law, what do you want to buy?" Jiang Ling just walked to the study, and the shopkeeper of the study stood up from behind the counter and asked.

"Shopkeeper, I want to ask, do you know how to sign up for the Linghui Academy in the next town?" Jiang Ling knew nothing about studying and scientific examinations in this era. said in.

"This..." The shopkeeper glanced at Jiang Ling, and saw that she was wearing a coarse linen dress with patches on it, and a rough face, which was obviously left by the wind and sun all year round. Jiang Ling's dress, no matter how you look at it It doesn't look like there will be scholars at home.

Moreover, this Linghui Academy is a well-known girls' school, and the girls there are either merchants or politicians. I have never heard of any farmer who sent his children to it.

"Auntie, are you asking about Linghui Academy?" The shopkeeper touched the back of his head and asked tentatively.

"Yes! Linghui Academy!" Jiang Ling replied in a straight voice.

"This... Auntie, let's not talk about the expenses of Linghui Academy for one semester. Every year, registration needs to be strictly screened. Although there is no age limit, you must be familiar with enlightenment publications and arithmetic within a hundred. Every April Enrollment once in September and once in September. I wonder how old is Qianyuan?" The shopkeeper looked at Jiang Ling again, and for some reason he always felt that the village woman in front of him seemed a little different.

Jiang Ling was secretly surprised when she heard this. She didn't expect that the requirements of Linghui Academy were so high. In the first nine years of modern times, education was compulsory, and this academy even required an exam.

Sure enough, Sui He was delayed by those dead scumbags from the Lu family.Self-pity has never been Jiang Ling's character. She looked up at the shopkeeper and said, "Please get me a copy of the enlightenment publication and the basic arithmetic shopkeeper."

"Auntie, which kind do you want? Different people copy books here, so the prices are naturally different. Xiucai copies a copy of 100 copper coins, and Tong Sheng copies a copy of 80 copper coins." The shopkeeper asked.

In ancient times, reading was expensive, and many poor students would choose to come to the study to copy books to maintain their daily expenses. The money can reduce part of the burden for the family, and can also be used as travel expenses for future exams.

Jiang Ling thought about it, since she bought it, she bought the best one. Jiang Ling took out 200 copper coins from her pocket and put them in front of the shopkeeper, saying: "The scholar copied it, please have a copy of each."

The shopkeeper watched Jiang Ling generously take out 200 copper coins from his arms, and his heart became more convinced of his previous thoughts. The village woman in front of him was definitely not an ordinary person.

Walking out of the study, Jiang Ling smiled and shook the two books in front of Jiang Suhe, Jiang Suhe's eyes lit up immediately.

"Book? It's a book! Mother, did you buy me a book?" Jiang Suhe asked excitedly.

"Yes, Suihe, you have to hurry up and study. Just now, mother inquired about the admission requirements of Linghui Academy. You need to be familiar with these two books!" Jiang Ling said, putting the book in Jiang Suihe's hand.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Suhe, who was still excited just now, drooped the corners of his eyebrows and eyes after listening to Jiang Ling's words, looking unhappy.

At first, Jiang Ling thought that she was putting pressure on Jiang Suihe, so she quickly said softly: "Suihe, what's the matter, is it because your mother is putting too much pressure on you?"

Unexpectedly, Suihe shook his head, pinched the corner of his clothes, opened his mouth and hesitated, and said: "No, no, mother, I... Or, let's forget about sending me to school. I heard that this academy is a semester. It takes a lot of silver."

"Suihe, didn't mother say that you don't need to worry about money! Mother not only wants to send you to school, but also your younger brothers and sisters!" Jiang Ling patted Jiang Suhe on the shoulder and said.

Jiang Ling and his party of four, after eating in Changning Town, pushed the cart and waited for Uncle Lu's ox cart at the entrance of the town.

"Ah! Jiang Shi, have you sold out all the buckets? Have you made a lot of money?" As soon as the cart was pushed onto the bullock cart, the sharp-eyed Lu Shi took a look at Jiang Ling's empty bucket. She looked at the empty bucket and asked tentatively. road.

"Small business, how could it be possible to make money? It's not just the money I just made, it's all about buying books!" Jiang Ling pointed to the two books that Jiang Suihe was holding in his hand.

"What? Mrs. Jiang, you said you bought books for your girl?" After hearing this, Mrs. Lu opened her eyes wide and looked at Jiang Ling in disbelief and yelled.

"That's right! What's wrong with the girl, there is Linghui Academy in Pingxi County, and there are not all girls studying there!" Jiang Ling glanced at Lu Shi and said lightly.

"What? Mrs. Jiang! Don't tell me, you still let your girl go to Linghui Academy? I heard that there are rich and powerful girls there!"

Lu Shi's words made Jiang Ling a little annoyed, but she could also understand that how could peasants in this day and age barely have enough to eat, so they could not pay attention to education.

She calmed down and said, "Try hard, what if it succeeds?"

"Crazy! Really crazy!" After hearing Jiang Ling's words, Lu shook his head frantically and muttered.

The ox cart brought everyone back to Lujia Village, and Jiang Ling took a few children back to the old house. Before he reached the door, Jiang Ling saw the village chief standing at the door of his house, pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back.

"Village chief, why are you back? Where's our Yaojie?" Jiang Ling pushed the cart and walked a few steps quickly, but couldn't find Jiang Yaojie after looking around and asked worriedly, frowning.

"Oh! Where have you gone, Mrs. Jiang!" The village chief felt as if he had grasped at straws when he saw Jiang Ling.

"Where is the village head, Yaojie?" Seeing the village head's expression, Jiang Ling's heart gradually became agitated.

"Da da da..." A sound of horseshoes came from behind Jiang Ling.

Jiang Ling looked back quickly, only to see a carriage slowly driving over not far away, and stopped in front of Jiang Ling.

"Mother!" Jiang Yaojie lifted the curtain above the carriage and jumped out with his head stuck out.

Then a fat figure appeared in front of Jiang Ling.

"It's him?" Jiang Ling didn't think too much about it, and quickly brought a few children to kneel on the ground and said, "Hello, magistrate Duan."

"Jiang Shi, hurry up and excuse me, your son is really well-educated by you!" When County Magistrate Duan said this, his mouth almost cracked behind his ears, and the corners of his brows and eyes were full of unconcealable smiles.

"This...what the hell is going on here?" Jiang Ling was completely confused, she quickly pulled Jiang Yaojie's sleeve and asked in a low voice.

"Mother, this matter..."

"Jiang Shi, how can you let the county magistrate stand here in such a hot day!" Seeing Jiang Ling standing still in a daze, the village chief quickly tugged at her sleeve and reminded.
