After the stone tablet with the village name engraved on it fell to the ground, everyone happily entered the village.

When building a village, houses are built based on one family as a unit.

If the population is larger, there will naturally be more rooms and the yard will be much larger.

Those with relatively smaller populations were allocated small courtyards.

Just like Su Yingyue and her daughter, they live in two rooms and a small courtyard with a kitchen.

As for other places with large populations, they were allocated larger settlements, but of course, they were just big enough for them to live in.

Because it was already winter, the construction of the village was planned to be very tight, so not many houses were built for each family.

Even the residence where Zhao Lingshan and her friends lived, although relatively large, was not sufficient.

Among them, a main house was built, and then there were three large rooms, each of which had a large bunk bed.

One room sleeps five gentlemen, and the other room sleeps Chun, Xia, Qiu, Dong, He Jiuniang and Heiyu.

The other room is temporarily occupied by Hong Yitian and A Da. If someone else joins in the future, they can live in the same room with them.

Then there is a dining room, a kitchen and two toilets.

As the head of the family, Zhao Lingshan naturally lived in the main house.

……

There is a large open space in the village, which was prepared to be used for drying grain in the future. Now it is perfect for holding banquets.

There were more than thirty tables in total for the people from the two villages.

Huang Lizheng was looking at the bustling scene, feeling filled with emotion.

I remember when they first got a daughter-in-law, the scale was not this big.

What shocked him even more was that after the dishes were served, they completely overturned his understanding of banquets.

Among the dozen or so dishes on the table, most of them are meat dishes!

You know, even during Chinese New Year, no, even when we were paying homage to our ancestors, these dishes would not be half as sumptuous as this!

After Zhao Lingshan finished her few words of hospitality, everyone started eating.

As they toasted each other, the villagers of the two villages invisibly drew closer to each other.

After eating and drinking, the villagers expressed their gratitude to Zhao Lingshan.

Zhao Lingshan was polite and asked everyone to work hard in the future and strive to live a better life as soon as possible.

As night fell, people gradually dispersed.

Zhao Lingshan returned to the room and saw the four maids, Chun, Xia, Qiu and Dong, making the beds, so she sat aside and waited for them to get busy.

Watching them cleaning and chatting, looking forward to a better life in the future, the atmosphere was very relaxed and pleasant.

At this time, there was a knock on the door. He Jiuniang opened the door and found Huang Li standing at the door.

Huang Lizheng did not go in either, but said to Zhao Lingshan with a smile on his face: "Master Zhao, thank you so much today!"

"I came here just to ask, what are your plans for the future development of your village?"

Zhao Lingshan tilted her head slightly, thought for a moment and said, "I plan to lead everyone to reclaim more wasteland and grow food and vegetables after the spring."

"At the same time, I also want to open a school in the village so that all children can learn to read and write."

She had come all the way from Kyoto, and during the time she had interacted with people, especially after arriving here, she had deeply felt the huge difference between being educated and being uneducated.

Among this group of people, there are many knowledgeable people.

It is easy to teach children some knowledge.

After hearing this, Huang Lizheng nodded in praise, with a gleam in his eyes.

Seeing him hesitant to speak, Zhao Lingshan felt very awkward.

"Huang Lizheng, just say what you want to say." Although she was able to deal with people relatively normally, she still couldn't handle things that were roundabout.

"Hehe...hehe..." Huang Lizheng first gave a few embarrassed laughs.

A pair of rough, dark hands rubbed together, making a rustling sound.

"Master Zhao, if your village's school is established, can you accept students from our Datu Village?" Huang Lizheng finally plucked up the courage to speak out his plan.

It's no wonder that he was so worried, because in a poor village like theirs, it is simply impossible to send children to school.

When a family has trouble putting enough food on the table, how can they afford to send their children to school?

However, the situation is different for schools in new villages, where tuition fees are definitely much cheaper.

If the new school could accept the children in their village, even if not every child could be sent to study, at least some children from families with slightly better conditions would be able to learn something.

Of course, this was just his wishful thinking, and it was understandable if others wanted to refuse.

Zhao Lingshan didn't expect that he was struggling with this issue. She really didn't think that teaching a few more children in the new village's school would make any difference.

Anyway, the school has been established, and teaching one child is the same as teaching a group of children.

Maybe if there were more people, the learning atmosphere would be better.

What's more, there are not many school-age children in the exile group.

"How many children do you plan to send here?" Zhao Lingshan asked calmly.

From her perspective, knowing the number of children will make it easier for her to arrange follow-up work.

"How much?" Huang Lizheng was surprised by her question and asked this question without any reason.

From what she said, it seems like it doesn't matter how many children are sent over?

Zhao Lingshan didn't understand what he wanted to express, so she said nothing and just waited quietly for him to continue speaking.

"From my perspective, I naturally hope for more."

"But I also know that teaching children is not easy. The more children there are, the harder it is for teachers!"

"Also, the tuition fees for children to go to school is also a problem. Not every child can go to school..." Huang Lizheng's voice became softer as he spoke.

He knew that since he mentioned the issue of tuition, he might be suspected of bargaining.

But their village was so poor that he had to shamelessly fight for it as much as possible.

"It's okay to have more children. We have plenty of gentlemen here."

"As for the tuition, oh, it's just tuition, you can pay as you see fit."

"Food, livestock, medicinal materials or labor are all fine." Zhao Lingshan said slowly.

Little did she know that every word and sentence she spoke deeply shocked Huang Lizheng.

"If that's the case, then it would be great... great!" At the end, Huang Lizheng's eyes turned red and his voice choked.

However, Zhao Lingshan's next words made him burst into tears.

“By the way, don’t just send the boys here, send the girls here too.” She still spoke calmly, as if she was just talking about the matter.

"This...this, girls can also go to school?" Huang Lizheng was still choking and stuttering.

"Why not?" Zhao Lingshan asked back.

After she came to the other world, she clearly felt the idea of ​​favoring boys over girls.

However, in the last days, there is no distinction between men and women at all.

When fighting or allocating resources, you will never be given extra care or preference just because you are a woman.

To get more resources depends on how capable you are.
