Chapter 270: The First Female Student of Shuxiu County School
At the gate of the county school, all the headmen except Zhou had the same expression, their mouths open wide enough to fit an egg.
"Zhou Lizheng...you are not, who is she? She should be the girl of some student...right?"
They stretched out their trembling fingers and pointed at Li Leyou.
Li Leyou smiled shyly at them.
Everyone was standing still.
Not really.
It shouldn't be what they think, right?
"Cough cough."
Zhou Lizheng glanced around, his eyes filled with pride that was about to overflow.
But when he saw Shen Zheng, he still bowed respectfully and introduced Shen Zheng:
"Please forgive me, I am late. This girl is a student from Nanba Village. Her surname is Li and her name is Leyou."
He deliberately emphasized the words "female students".
Not to mention the village heads, even Shen Zheng was a little surprised. This girl with the surname Li was truly an unexpected surprise.
Shen Zheng stood on the steps, looking at Li Leyou from a distance, which made her inexplicably feel that a new era had passed.
There will be more and more latecomers.
She was very happy.
She nodded encouragingly to Li Leyou, but Li Leyou blushed and buried his head.
The other village heads only felt that Zhou's call of "female student" pierced their hearts.
They all put their hands over their hearts.
It was exactly what they thought!
The first female student in Tongan County was born in Nanba Village! They hated it!
Wu Lizheng was so angry that he slapped his thigh: "We agreed to share what we have, share what we have, but he actually hid such a big thing from us!"
I thought it was a fair competition to see which village had the strength and luck to produce the first female student in Tongan County. But now, Nanba Village has taken the lead.
Everyone's teeth are about to break.
Wu Lizheng, who had just spoken for Zhou Lizheng, wanted to slap himself in the face.
What is there to say for him? You have to give to gain. Zhou Lizheng should be punished for being late!
Ugh--
The crowd surrounded Li Leyou and looked at him curiously.
They wanted to talk to her, but were afraid that the girl might be embarrassed and would be presumptuous if they approached her suddenly.
Li Leyou didn't expect the village heads to be so enthusiastic. He suddenly felt embarrassed and didn't know where to put his hands.
"Go away, go away, why are you all surrounding us? You're not letting the only female student in, are you?"
Village chief Zhou made a gesture to drive them away, and the other village chiefs stared with wide eyes.
What a huge shit pot has been dumped on me!
Everyone in the crowd spoke in unison:
"I'm not."
"I do not have."
"Don't talk nonsense!"
"Tsk..." Zhou Lizheng held his head high and said, "Then let us go in first, everyone, make way, keep away! Don't bump into us while we are having fun!"
The teeth of the village chief were broken again and again.
have to.
Today he should look down on others.
Seeing that the other village chiefs were sensible, Village Chief Zhou led a few people from Nanba Village and walked up the steps of the county school in a heroic and confident manner.
But only Li Leyou stood there without moving.
The village heads were so frightened that they stopped in their tracks.
If she doesn't leave, they won't dare to leave either!
Otherwise, that petty-minded Zhou Lizheng would take the blame again and blame them for scaring people!
Li Leyou stood on the steps and looked up at the plaque of the county school - Tongan County School.
She knew that this was the plaque written by Earl Yongning himself for the county school, but today was the first time she saw it with her own eyes.
Because she didn't dare to come on the day of the unveiling of the plaque.
Other students and common people could be said to admire the elegant style and writing of the Lord, but she just couldn't get over the hurdle in her heart.
She didn't know what identity or expression she should use as she stood in front of the county school gate.
But now, she knows.
She can also become a member of the county school.
She took a deep breath and stepped onto the steps of the county school one step at a time.
It seems that it is not that difficult to walk.
Just now.
"Wait a minute!"
Wu Lizheng's voice sounded behind them, and Zhou Lizheng and others turned around to look.
Wu Lizheng pointed at the cloth bags in their hands and said, "Old brothers, since Zhou Lizheng and the others are so frank, then we won't hide anything! Students of Shanghe Village, listen up!"
"exist!"
The students from Shanghe Village answered in cooperation.
"Take all the clothes off the oxcart and give them to Ben Lizheng!"
"Yes!"
The village heads then realized that they had been so focused on looking at Li Leyou that they had ignored the things in the hands of the students from Nanba Village!
Those big and small bags, what else could they be but salary?
"Okay, okay, okay, that's great, Li Zheng Zhou. We clearly agreed before that today, each village will gather at the gate of the county school first. After everyone is here, we will all take out the tuition fees prepared in advance, so that the adults and teachers will not refuse to accept them! Now he is hiding people, which is fine, but he actually, actually..."
In everyone's mind, they had already excluded Zhou Lizheng from the list of village heads and did not want to say a word to him.
Shen Zheng saw their actions but did not say anything to stop them.
Instead, Li Hongmao and several gentlemen were extremely surprised.
"Sir, isn't our county school free of tuition? The head of the village..."
Shen Zheng smiled.
"They don't want to take advantage of the county school. They remember what we did."
Li Hongmao looked at the sincere faces of the teachers and students and could not bring himself to say no.
Shen Zheng turned and walked towards the county school. "Let's go. I'll take everyone inside first. No one has been inside since the county school was renovated. We should let everyone have a good look at the place where the students will study in the future."
The students from every village followed them into the county school with their hands full and their heads held high.
The county residents gathered at the gate of the county school for a long time and did not disperse.
"Students from all villages have brought things with them!"
"Of course, if my child could read, I wouldn't let him go empty-handed! Why should he look so shabby? Even if he is poor, he should bring two baskets of vegetables, right?"
"You're right. If we can't accept the kindness of adults, we will eventually get used to it, right? Adults don't owe us anything."
"Hey, you stingy guy, how can you say that?"
"Who is so stingy! Stop right there—"
......
"Oh——"
As soon as everyone entered the door, they were stunned by the simplicity and grandeur of the county school.
Zhou Lizheng muttered quietly: "Why didn't I think our county school was so beautiful when I was working? Look - look at this wall, look at these bricks! Zhang Yuanwei, Quanyang Academy is just like this, right?"
Zhang Yuanwei, who was named, nodded directly.
"What Li Zheng Zhou said is right. Quanyang Academy is bigger than our county school in terms of land area. But inside... students still think our county school is better."
Zhou Lizheng was having a happy occasion today, so he talked a lot more.
He raised his head proudly and asked, "What's so good about our county school?"
"Uh......"
Zhang Yuanwei shook the bundle of money in his hand and thought for a moment.
"Our county school lacks those expensive decorations, returns to its original simplicity, and is filled with the chirping of birds and the fragrance of flowers along the way..."
