A retired aunt traveled through time and space, and her daughter became rich!
Chapter 241 Literacy Class in the Capital
The six people who were taken away were naturally ecstatic.
The orphans who were not chosen were extremely disappointed, and some even had tears in their eyes.
Aunt Su also couldn't stand seeing this kind of scene.
I could only comfort everyone and say that I would come to visit them again in the future.
He also left them a dozen or so simplest books.
The level of knowledge in these books, in modern terms, is probably for preschool children.
The main feature is to learn words by looking at pictures and learning addition by looking at pictures.
Aunt Su didn’t know how much help these books could bring to these orphans.
Anyway, just do what you can.
The graduation gifts given to the three treasures of the Zhu family were children's books that Su Heiya had picked out on the market.
Of course, Su Heiya had to do a lot of work before sending it to Aunt Su. She had to review it first, then re-format it, print it with her own printer, bind it, and finally send it to Aunt Su.
Aunt Su asked someone to find a plate maker in the printing house to make a carved plate, and then print it on paper from this world.
Fortunately, these books have few pages and words, otherwise the project would be too huge.
What Aunt Su didn't know was that the manager of the orphanage had already reviewed those dozen or so books first.
His eyes changed for a long time and he looked very hesitant.
The trusted servant next to him came over and spoke with joy.
"Butler, there is a rumor out there that this old lady Su has been enlightened by an immortal and has great abilities. The wealthy families in the capital are offering her money to beg her to take them in as her students!"
"I'm afraid each of the books given by Old Madam Su is worth dozens of taels of silver!"
The Salesian Home was run by the imperial court, which allocated money and food every month.
Of course, someone would come to check the accounts every month, and also check whether the young and old in the orphanage had enough food and clothing.
Therefore, although there are benefits to be gained from being the manager of the orphanage, the amount that can be gained is very limited.
That is to say, when noble people come to donate money and property, they can get more.
But when they meet someone like Old Madam Su, who donated little silver and sent things in kind, they could only get more food and drink.
In particular, Old Madam Su came to visit in person and gave gifts to all the young and old in the courtyard.
Then he has to ensure that everyone can wear the new clothes and shoes sent by Old Madam Su.
Wouldn't it be less if it went into his pocket?
And these books...
The steward was conflicted for a while, but in the end he didn't take the books out to exchange for money immediately.
"Madam Su said she would come again!"
In the eyes of the wealthy families in the capital, Madam Su, an old countess from outside the city, is nothing.
But as a manager of an orphanage, he could not afford to offend.
Not to mention, Madam Su is now a well-known figure in the capital.
It would be bad if Madam Su came again and found that these children had no books.
The trusted servant next to him rolled his eyes and gave him an idea.
"Master, there are hundreds of children in this courtyard, but there are only a dozen books. It's not enough."
"Why not hand-copy a few copies of this book..."
Before he finished speaking, the steward's eyes lit up.
"Hold on!"
There were originally quite a few idle people in the courtyard.
Although the old ones can no longer do heavy work, there are still some who can read.
If I can’t wash clothes and chop wood, can’t I copy books?
Let them do the job and he can sell the manuscripts.
Even under the name of Old Madam Su, a book must be sold for at least two taels... No, this is the only one in the capital, so it must be sold for at least five taels!
Aunt Su spent three days visiting several orphanages before she was able to complete the donation process.
The closure of Zhu's Three Treasures School allowed Aunt Su to free up her hands and start training the orphans.
These orphans were recruited from a group of forty or fifty orphans through examinations. Naturally, their IQ and comprehension abilities are slightly better than those of ordinary people.
So as long as you follow the procedures of the literacy class held in Sujiazhuang, everything will be fine.
There is no need for the fairy shadow for the time being.
Sure enough, children who have experienced hard times are more sensible and studious.
Most of the children from wealthy families that Aunt Su had taught before could only maintain their interest in learning by relying on the fairy shadows that were a thousand times more novel.
These children listened attentively to Su Mei's elementary lessons and were eager to learn.
To support these orphans, all one needs is to prepare two empty rooms, three meals a day, and two new sets of clothes.
Study in the morning and do some simple work in the afternoon.
After only a few days at the Su residence, the accommodation and food were much better than before, and the work was easier. The six orphans' faces and spirits seemed to have changed, and they looked visibly refreshed.
Lin Yanniang was shocked and asked Aunt Su in a somewhat embarrassed manner, "Mother, my concubines have several half-grown girls and boys at home. When they heard that the Su family opened a literacy class, they were very envious..."
Aunt Su waved her hand generously, "Then you can pick a few smart ones and send them to the Su residence to attend the literacy class together."
The original owner had a daughter. When her daughter married and moved to the capital, she tried her best to pick out several useful maids.
It’s just that the original owner was weak-minded and incompetent, so she had to choose a roommate, which was just like that.
Otherwise, how could Lin Yanniang be plotted against and have such a hard life in the inner house?
After traveling through time for more than a year and getting to know Lin Yanniang more, Aunt Su has become more sincere towards this adopted daughter.
The quality of these employees (accompanying rooms) is not good, so let's train them!
Aunt Su’s happiness value has now reached one million, and the rate of increase has accelerated recently.
Maybe one day, when she has accumulated enough happiness points and the system is upgraded to the maximum level, she will be able to go back in a flash.
Therefore, it would be a good idea to provide more protection for my adopted daughter before she goes back.
Lin Yanniang was overjoyed when she heard this and thanked him repeatedly.
The next day, they arrived with a carriage full of young men and women.
"Mother, from now on, I will be responsible for the fabrics for all six of them to wear for all four seasons!"
If she always gets benefits without paying any money, then doesn't that mean she is just a sugar cock?
Aunt Su didn't be polite to her either.
If my adopted daughter wants to help out, then let her do it.
Anyway, when she travels back in time in the future, all these people, silver and shops will be left to Lin Yanniang.
