The Marquise: I Earn My Own Worship

Due to the complexity of the actual situation, Song Shengfu adjusted the teaching methods of girls' schools.

The first batch of female students will study for three years and complete their studies within three years and then be assessed. If you pass the assessment, Duan Bofu will arrange work places for these girls based on their academic performance according to the major they studied.

When they heard that if one studied well, one could enter the mansion of the Earl, both the farmers and those who were sold there were very excited.

The servants specially trained by Duan Bo's mansion were talking at the top with great enthusiasm. Their purpose was to let the people in the manor understand what the girls' school in the mansion was for.

If you are good at math, you can be an accountant for the master; if you are good at embroidery, you can be an embroidery girl for the young lady; if you can cook, you can work in the kitchen of your sisters or brothers.

If all else fails, they can work as a manager or cook in the shop of the uncle's mansion. As long as there is a position in the shop, they can do it!

"Really? We women can also be shopkeepers?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the originally noisy farmers quieted down. This was also the issue they were concerned about.

They are the daughters of farmers. If nothing unexpected happens, they will marry the sons of other farmers in the village, and then continue to guard the village until they give birth to the next generation, repeating their lives.

And the shop manager sounded so proud. On weekdays, when they took copper coins to the shop in town to buy flowers, the shop manager would look down on them with a look of contempt.

Because they were from Duan Bo's manor, the shop manager was impatient with them but still entertained them.

But it is different for ordinary people. Those who wear tattered clothes will be driven out by those shops.

They are the most inconspicuous servants under Duan Bo's Mansion, but precisely because of the name of Duan Bo's Mansion, they live a much more comfortable life than ordinary people.

They even don't want to leave Duan Bo's Mansion for the rest of their lives. So what if they are just servants? The emperor's dog is also an official.

Under everyone's expectant gaze, the servant replied fiercely:

"Of course! Think about it, jewelry shops and cloth shops are mostly run by women. How can men understand women's things? That's why our old lady said that from now on, all jewelry, cloth, rouge and other women's things in the Bo's Mansion will be managed by female managers and servants. In addition to these, the Bo's Mansion's embroidery workshop, rouge workshop, and goldsmith workshop are all hiring female workers. So as long as you learn, the Bo's Mansion will arrange a place for you."

Upon hearing this, not only the girls but also the parents became interested.

"Uncle, uncle, do you think I'm okay?"

An aunt raised her hand high and asked, and the servant rolled his eyes.

"Sister, please stop joining in the fun. You are already so old, and you are still competing with the little girls."

"Then why don't you recruit us men? How are we men worse than women?"

At this time, someone finally spoke out the thoughts of the men who came to listen. The speaker was a man in his thirties, holding a child in his hand, a boy.

"It's already said that this is a girls' school, and boys are not accepted. Can you, a man, hold an embroidery needle? Do you know what jewelry looks good? Can you, a man, deliver a baby?"

"Hahahaha, last time your wife gave birth, Xu Laoer, you saw all that blood and you were so scared you couldn't even walk. We men can't help with childbirth!"

The one who retorted was another farmer named Zhang Bao. Xu Laoer always showed off in front of Zhang Bao that he had a son, while he only had three daughters, so he could never hold his head up.

Now, his eldest and second daughters can go to girls' school, but the youngest one is not old enough, which makes him so angry!

As soon as these words were spoken, a group of people started laughing, and the servant began to ask them to quiet down.

"If you have any more questions, hurry up. I'll take the female students and leave after I've counted the number of people."

"My Lord, I have a question!"

Zhang Bao squeezed to the front, holding two girls on both sides, and his hair was messed up by the squeeze.

"Can they start working after just three years of study? Can they go home? What will happen to their marriage plans then?"

The two girls couldn't help but shudder when they heard about their marriages. The eldest was Zhang Qiao, who was already fourteen years old. The day before yesterday, she heard her father was arranging a marriage for her. It was said that the man was from the village next door, a man whose wife had just died. She was very scared.

The servant was about to say something related to the rest when someone asked him about it, which saved him from having to repeat himself.

"Okay! If someone asks, everyone, please listen carefully. The girls' school has three years of assessments. Don't think you can just eat and drink for free and then leave. The girls' school has two semesters a year, and students don't go home on weekdays. After each semester, there is a fifteen-day vacation. Assessments are held once a month. If someone ranks last in the class more than three times in half a semester, they will be expelled. The school will explain the details to them. After three years, those who pass the assessment will go to the school..."

At this time, someone whispered to him: "Internship."

"Oh, right! The internship is to see how well you actually do the work. If you don't do it well, you have to go back and learn again. Only if you pass can you stay!"

They understood the general idea: it was similar to those apprentices outside, but they all went to study together, and the Bofu provided food and accommodation but did not pay apprenticeship fees. If they did not learn well, they would not be able to earn money and could not graduate.

"Grandpa, grandpa! What if our daughter is too stupid to learn?"

The servant took a sip of water and said, "Don't worry about that. What's that saying? Everyone has their own strengths. The school will help your daughter learn what she's good at. She won't be so stupid that she can't even learn to read."

"Oh, then my daughter is good at embroidery. She can be an embroiderer."

"My girl cooks well, she can go and cook for the masters!"

"Oh, Hua'er's mother, your eldest daughter's cooking is indeed very good. You are lucky. When the time comes, your daughter will earn money for you to spend."

When the servant heard this, he quickly said:

"After you pass the exam, whether you work in a shop or elsewhere, only room and board will be provided for five years. Your monthly salary must be paid to the girls' school."

"Wouldn't that be a waste of time? When they get married, they'll belong to someone else. There's no point in us raising them to this age!"

Some people complained in dissatisfaction, thinking that they could bring money home after learning it, but they didn't know that in the end, it benefited other families.

Fortunately, the servants have been trained and have official answers to all the questions these people may ask.

"I'm asking you if you have a son?"

The man who was asked nodded. What does this have to do with his son?

"So, will your son get married?"

"Yes, of course!"

"Then tell me, would you be willing to marry a capable daughter-in-law who has studied at a women's school?"

When everyone heard this, they realized that it was true.

"Then my daughter will go to a girls' school, and my son will have to marry a female student."

Everyone was whispering, and they all thought this was a good idea. But those who didn't have sons looked a little unhappy, and they wished they could send their two or three-year-old daughters to school so that they could bring some money home after graduation.
