Rebirth, end of the world, time travel, escape famine, make money!

She knows all this, so she is willing to learn. She has signed up for calligraphy classes and piano lessons before, so she should have a certain foundation in learning an instrument at this time.

As for chess and painting, she hasn't had much contact with them, and she doesn't know the situation. She can also try embroidering and making clothes.

Let's see how her mother arranges it for her.

Compared with those ancient texts, the Four Books and the Five Classics, she looked at Lin Keyu with some sympathy.

Lin Keyu looked at her and seemed to understand her meaning immediately. He pursed his lips and said, "You have a big head..."

“Hahaha…come on…”

On the ninth day of the first lunar month, Wan Tongsheng's elementary school opened.

After discussing with Liu's father, Luo Hong finally took Lin Keyu and Fang Chenhao to his school.

He told Lin Keyu that he hoped he would learn all the books in the enlightenment school within a year, take the examination for Tongsheng and Xiucai at the beginning of next year, and then take the examination for Juren in three years.

Lin Keyu wanted to refute but was retorted by Luo Hong. In fact, Luo Hong did not ask him to pass the exam, but just set a goal for him. The goal is always bigger than the reality. Without pressure, there is no motivation.

There were not so many rules in Wanjia Enlightenment School. Some people came for a year and then stopped coming. It was normal. However, Wan Tongsheng still taught a Tongsheng. As for the future development, people all over the country had a hard time in the past few years.

The imperial examinations were suspended in many places for various reasons.

Because the academy examinations have been suspended, only some places with conditions still hold county and prefectural examinations every year.

The academy examination will be restarted this year, and the provincial, metropolitan and palace examinations will also be held subsequently.

The competitive pressure can be imagined. There should be more scholars who have passed the exam in recent years, plus those who were qualified to take the exam before.

Luo Hong didn't have much hope for himself when he took the exam, let alone his children.

"Master Wan, these are two of our children who are here to study. I hope you will take care of them from now on."

Luo Hong brought people to see Wan Tongsheng, while Liu's father went to pay the tuition for the two and the entrance gift to the teacher. Originally, he wanted to send Zhang Hu's son Zhang Peng with him, but Zhang Peng couldn't speak and was a little introverted, so Luo Hong decided to teach him while teaching everyone to read in the evening. You can't push the children too hard, everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses, so you have to teach them according to their aptitude.

"Uncle Luo, you are too polite. I will do my best."

"I'll pick them up when they're done with get out of class, and then I'll discuss academic matters with you for half an hour. Is this schedule okay?"

"It's perfect."

Luo Hong calculated the time. After school at 4:30 in the afternoon, he would come over to discuss with Wan Tongsheng for an hour. Then Lin Keyu could also listen. As for Fang Chenhao, he was too young and would definitely not understand, so he could just read a book on the side.

As for Li Yao and Wei Songbai, although Li Yao is young and has not taken the examination for a scholar, his family was well off in the past, and his knowledge is no worse than Wei Songbai's.

Luo Hong thought about sending the two of them to the school in town and taking the exam together this year.

Before, he had thought about going to the town together, but it took almost three hours to go back and forth from the town to the village, so he couldn't come back every day. He was old, and it was really not suitable for him to live in the school.

In addition, he had a lot of things to do every day, so he finally gave up the idea. The school in the town also started registration on the 9th and classes officially started on the 10th.

After finishing the business with the two boys here, Luo Hong and Liu's father drove the ox cart to the town again.

This was their first time in the town. The town was much smaller than the county town, with only one street and a row of houses on each side of the street. There were only a few shops, one selling food, one selling groceries, one selling rouge, powder, cloth and ready-made clothes, and one selling pork. On the other side of the pork shop there were a few chickens and a basket of eggs, which must have been sold together.

As for vegetable sellers, there were none at all. Even if you lived in a town, every household had cultivated vegetable fields in their backyards. Vegetables that were not rare could be grown at home, so they could not be sold at all.

There is no need to ask anyone, at the end of the street, you can see the plaque "Kaoshuizhen Academy".

There were small schools for beginners, private schools, which were private schools for those with a little fame and money, and academies, which were generally public schools, and there were also larger schools run by famous scholars. Then there was the Imperial Academy, which was located at the foot of the imperial city and was an academy opened by the royal family. Only the rich or the noble could enter to study there, and not just anyone could.

There were people coming in and out of the gate of Shuizhen Academy at this time, probably all of them were here to register for school.

Luo Hong stepped forward and bowed to ask for advice from the doorman. The doorman's attitude was quite good. Without waiting for Luo Hong to speak, he spoke first, "You are here to register your children, right? Please come in."

"Thank you, little brother!"

Following the instructions, several people followed the person in front of them and went directly into the inner courtyard. The courtyard was a two-story house. When they entered, they saw a queue at the door of the first room, and there were groups of people talking outside. It seemed that they were classmates meeting again after the New Year, and they must have a lot to talk about.

Father Liu went to line up and said, "I'll line up to pay. Do you want to chat with these people and find out what's going on?"

"That's fine! Those two people over there seem easy to talk to," Luo Hong said, and then he said to the two people beside him, "You two go get to know them and ask for their advice. I'll follow behind you and listen."

Li Yao and Wei Songbai knew that they were being asked to practice their ability to make friends, so they nodded. Li Yao was young after all, and said, "Brother Songbai, you speak first!"

"Row!"

Wei Songbai also knew that he was older and should speak first. He straightened his robes to make sure he looked decent, walked to the two of them, bowed slightly to show respect, and then bowed and asked softly, "Excuse me, seniors. I am Wei Songbai and my younger brother Li Yao. We are here to register for school today. May I meet you, seniors?"

After hearing what Wei Songbai said, the two looked at each other. One of them, who looked a little older, said, "Wei and Li, hello. My name is Chen Xuan and I have been in the academy for three years. This is Lin Zicheng, my uncle's cousin. He just registered today. You should be in the same class in the future so that you can keep each other company."

The two sides exchanged greetings. Chen Xuan was nineteen years old and was from Yuanshui Village. He had passed the examination for a student but not a scholar. Lin Zicheng was sixteen years old and was preparing to take part in today's county examination. "Brother Wei, Brother Li, you guys need to stay overnight. I have an empty bed at the end of my bed. Let's go and take it first. We can stay together later! Otherwise, it will be taken by other students."

Wei Songbai and the other man looked at Luo Hong behind them, and Luo Hong nodded. Chen Xuan and the others also noticed Luo Hong's presence. Wei Songbai briefly introduced him and nodded to the elders. Luo Hong received the information and did not interfere with their conversation.

"Then I'll trouble you, Brother Lin."
