"I'm temporarily staying in an inn. I'll rent a house tomorrow. It should be ready within three days."

Liu Yunwan replied truthfully.

"What kind of inn are you staying at? In this case, I will ask my servant to accompany your maid to the inn later and help you get your luggage. You will stay in my courtyard tonight. We will go to the county government office early tomorrow morning to register your household registration. Done, how about it? You just happen to sleep with me at night, so we can have a good chat."

Yan Xia suggested.

"Ah? That's so embarrassing. Let's forget it. I'll just stay in the inn." Liu Yunwan was embarrassed to stay at Yan Xia's house, so she quickly refused.

"That's it. If you treat me as a friend, just listen to me. Let's go back to the second courtyard with me." Yan Xia directly took Liu Yunwan's hand and went to the second courtyard together.

He then asked Xiao Ji to take two servants and accompany Nan'er back to the inn to collect luggage.

The night is getting dark and the sky is filled with stars.

It was getting late, and Yan Xia and Liu Yunwan were lying on the same bed after taking a bath.

Nan'er slept with Xiaoji.

There was only one candle in the room.

The light was weak, and only a few people's faces could be seen vaguely.

"Sister Liu, I want to open a girls' school." Yan Xia's words stunned Liu Yunwan.

"Girls' school?" She thought she heard it wrong, so she repeated Yan Xia's words again.

"Yes, I want to buy a piece of land and build a school. Only women can attend classes in this school. The teachers and those responsible for cleaning and cooking in the school are all women. Do you think it's feasible?"

Yan Xia wants to do something for the women in this world.

"I have never seen or heard of a school for a woman. To tell you the truth, I can read and write because my parents dote on me. It's also thanks to my brother. My brother doesn't like studying, so he often When I was in school, I would sneak out of school to play, which made my parents scolded by my master every day. Later, my parents simply invited a master to come and teach me, and he also taught me. However, my master saw that I was a woman, so he just Teach me how to read and nothing else."

Liu Yunwan's pupils were a little dazed as she recalled the past.

"So, I would like to ask you to join the enlightenment class to teach the newly admitted girls to read and become a wife. I also want to ask for your help to see if you have any friends who have studied and are willing to come and serve."

It's just an enlightenment class, it doesn't require much knowledge, just like a modern preschool.

Since Yan Xia wanted to set up a school, she was naturally short of manpower. Liu Yunwan happened to also need a job, so she might as well be a favor.

Give her a hand.

Moreover, after interacting with Liu Yunwan for a period of time, Yan Xia discovered that she has a cheerful and optimistic personality, independent thinking and self-confidence. She never feels inferior just because she is a woman.

Even in modern times, she can blend in perfectly and look more like a modern person.

Yan Xia felt that it was perfect for her to be the wife.

"I, I want to be a wife? Can I do that? Me, I only know a few words, how can I be worthy of being a wife?" Liu Yunwan pointed at herself with her index finger, her face full of self-doubt and disbelief.

"I said you can, you can, it's just an enlightenment class. It just teaches children how to get started. Simple literacy is enough. I plan to have three classes, an enlightenment class, a further study class and a graduation class."

After all, the school has not yet been built, and it is not known how many students it can recruit. Yan Xia only has three levels of classes for the time being. Each level has two classes, and each class is equipped with one or two wives.

"Then I will listen to you. You think I can do it. If I refuse again, wouldn't it be disrespectful? Thank you so much, sister Yan, you gave me the courage to live."

The two of them were leaning on the bed, with pillows against their waists. Through the weak candlelight, Yan Xia could see Liu Yunwan's eyes were red and her voice was nasal when she spoke.

"If you have any friends who have read books, you can introduce them to me. I'm going to ask Sister Qian to come too."

If Qian Yulan comes, then the women in the enlightenment class will barely be enough.

But there is still a long way to go for advanced studies and graduation classes.

Here, there are very few women who can read books and are knowledgeable.

Basically, they are all ladies or come from scholarly families.

How could such a woman show up in public and come to teach in the school? Yan Xia was speechless thinking about it.

"When you mention this, I really think of a person. My friend who grew up with me is called Feng Lanlan, who is also my neighbor. She married a year earlier than me and went to the remote Shu County. Her father is a little older. , after all, Lan Lan is a daughter of old age. After her death, her brother sold the family house. I heard that his brother went to Jiangnan County to make a living. During this period, when I went back to visit my parents, she came back once and saw that the owner of the house had changed. She also came to my parents' house to sit for a while.

We chatted for half an hour, and she left without even wanting to eat. Lan Lan likes reading. She loves to come to my house to read my brother's books. She is very knowledgeable. My brother's wife even praised her. Those books, if Lan Lan hadn't read them, would be no different from the new ones. It's just that it would take half a day to get from Shuangqiao Town to Shu County even at a fast pace. Lan Lan might not come, and I might not have seen her for a long time. "

Liu Yunwan sighed.

"It's okay. The school hasn't been built yet. Even if it is built, it will be next year. In this way, when the household registration is completed and you settle down, I will send a groom to take you to Shu County. You can ask her if she is willing to come. The school must build a place to stay. If a girl from out of town comes to study in the future and has no place to live, wouldn't it be inconvenient? You can communicate with her and the school is willing to give her four days off every month and send a groom to pick her up. But there is no rush in this. If you go earlier, you can give her time to think about it. Remember to leave her an address in case she figures it out and can find you."

Although Yan Xia is impatient, she knows that some things cannot be rushed.

"Okay, I see."

After Liu Yunwan answered, the two chatted for a while, then blew out the candles and got ready to go to bed.

Xiaoji and Nan'er have already fallen asleep.

Yan Xia and Liu Yunwan also fell asleep listening to the breathing of the maids.

"Selling steamed buns——"

"Pancakes, hot pancakes——"

"The vegetables we just picked are very fresh. Come and buy them -"

The early morning sunshine shines on the stone road in Shuangqiao Town, and there is a thin layer of mist in the air, which is slightly cold and slightly humid.

The streets began to become lively, and the loud shouts of the vendors penetrated the walls and reached every household living on the street. After a while, the stalls were crowded with people, some of whom were sitting on their seats and eating directly. Some took large bowls or basins and bought many steamed buns and pancakes to take home.

The back doors of the households near the river are open. Women and maids are squatting by the river with a basin of clothes to wash. The water in Shuangqiao Town is crystal clear. If you look closely, you can vaguely see fish the size of fingernails in the river. Swimming around happily.
