The Marquise: I Earn My Own Worship

Chapter 258 Women's Education Charity Exhibition

"When I went back to my parents' home yesterday, I heard people in my mother's village say that there's a girls' school at the foot of Qingyun Mountain. They're having a free clinic and selling cheap things these days. A lot of people from my mother's village went to see what's going on. If I hadn't been in a hurry to get back yesterday, I would have gone too."

"A girls' school? What good things can they sell? They also offer free clinics? Do those girls understand what they are learning?"

It’s not that they don’t believe it, but this is the first time they have seen a woman providing free medical treatment in all their years.

"Hey, don't disbelieve me. When I left, I saw the daughter-in-law behind my mother's house carrying a bag of medicine. She said it was for health care. It wasn't expensive, only seven copper coins."

Hearing this, Qin Yue, who was beating his clothes with a wooden stick, paused.

"What?! Are you kidding me? A packet of medicine is only seven copper coins. How can it be more expensive?"

Poor peasants like them would just bear the pain when they got sick, or ask the village elders to find some herbs in the mountains and boil them at home to drink.

Going to a pharmacy to see a doctor can cost you nothing.

"If it's as good as you say, I'll take my youngest to see him. He's been having stomach problems lately, and the dried chicken gizzards left at home aren't doing him any good. It's really frustrating."

"Your kid? That might not work. From what I heard, it seems like they only treat women. It's called something like gynecology. It should be called this."

Only treat women?

Everyone present was silent for a moment. They understood each word separately, but why did they not understand it when they read it together?

"Aunt Ren, are you telling the truth?"

Qin Yue couldn't help but ask out loud.

Aunt Ren was the one who first talked about the free medical consultation for girls.

As Aunt Ren was talking, she felt a little moved. She thought she might as well go and take a look herself.

These people don't believe it. She will wait until she goes to see it in person and then come back to show it to them. They will be envious to death.

In this village, who is more informed than her?

"Really? I'll tell you after I go see the doctor. But don't say I didn't warn you, no one knows how long this free clinic will last. It might even end tomorrow. Well, I won't wash it yet. I'll go home and clean up. Maybe I can still make it in time."

As soon as she said she would take action, Aunt Ren packed up her clothes and took them home.

This piece of clothing only needs to be washed twice. Washing it clean will make the linen thinner.

The rest of the people watched Aunt Ren walk away, then looked at each other.

Some people don't believe it, thinking it's just a joke. Generally, only famous clinics offer free consultations, so it's best not to ask female students to see them.

But there were also people who took it to heart, and Qin Yue was one of them.

With something on her mind, she had no intention of washing clothes anymore. She just washed them twice and went home.

The number of people by the river gradually decreased, and only a few people were left there.

"Did they really believe it?"

Some people watched curiously.

"Believe it or not, I'm just joining in the fun. I don't have time. All the clothes in the house, big and small, are here. If I don't wash them, I won't have anything to wear. If I go back, my mother-in-law will scold me like a cuckold."

A woman angrily pounded the clothes in her hands, as if she were an enemy.

"My life is so hard. I have to wash clothes and cook for the whole family while pregnant. Look at Qin Yue, she doesn't have a child but is treated like a treasure by her family. I really envy her because she found a good man. Unlike me, I have to work hard and dig for food in the fields all my life."

The woman kept complaining and compared herself to all the women in the village.

When someone mentions someone better than her, she complains a little, but when someone mentions someone not as good as her, there is a secret pleasure on her face.

People around have gotten used to it and occasionally chime in.

They don't believe it and don't want to join in the fun.

But whether they don't want to or can't, only they themselves know.

So, those who went to look for Lu Nuxue were divided into three groups.

One group went there specifically to gather information, and then went back to act as messengers, just like Aunt Ren.

One group is like Qin Yue, who went there specifically with something on their mind.

Another group of people just came to watch the fun.

Song Shengfu had planned long ago to open a sales point at the entrance of Xunlu Girls' School.

The purpose of learning is to apply what you have learned. No matter which college you are from, you must participate. This day was named Yizhan by Song Shengfu.

In the three colleges like the Needlework College, the Agricultural College, and the Crafts College, although the things students practice with may have flaws, they can be sold at a low price and used as subsidies for the colleges to purchase needles and thread.

There are handkerchiefs, clothes, wooden hairpins, wooden bracelets, small bonsai, etc. There are a lot of items piled up in various colleges, and they can be sold during the charity exhibition.

The agricultural institute mainly produces and sells its own products, but in order to participate in the charity exhibition, it also picked some things to sell, and also has some broiler chickens and ducks, which are all raised by itself.

If they are sold, the money will be used as funding. If they are not sold, they will be destroyed within the college.

The most popular one is Zhenxiuyuan, which makes and sells cheap food freshly prepared. People who come here are ordinary people who come from far away with empty stomachs. Those who have some extra money will come here to have some.

They sell some steamed buns, various skewers, baked, fried, and boiled, as well as different kinds of snacks, candies, pasta, and noodles. There are several kinds of noodles alone.

This made the visitors look at it in wonder for a while.

That’s right, Song Shengfu racked her brains and came up with everything about this era.

At first she had no intention of making money with these things, all of this was to prepare for girls' school.

The purpose of eating is to try something new. Everyone wants to try something they have never seen before. This is also a step to increase the reputation of the women's school.

Those who know about these things will know how to do it at a glance, but the most important thing is to take the initiative.

When they develop this kind of thing, the team specially trained by her will have new things.

At the same time, this is also a preparation for recruiting students later. Who wouldn’t want to learn such a good skill?

Gradually, two years later, when the college recruits students, it will not be empty.

Song Shengfu is still a little worried about this prospect.

Of course, the most attractive one is the Women's Hospital.

There was a very long queue in front, and it seemed as if there was no end from a distance.

When it comes to the teachers in the Women's Medical Hospital, there are all kinds of people.

There are many talented people among the people, and that is not empty talk.

At that time, Song Shengfu sent her own companion, who was also the most trusted person around the original body, to search various places in Da Chu.

Those who had some medical skills and were truly talented were recruited.

At that time, she was also wondering if there were families where medicine was passed down from generation to generation, and there were daughters in the family who had some medical skills but were not valued.

This is not a complete comeback story. People like this deserve special attention.

guess what?

Otherwise, Song Shengfu would burn incense every day. It’s true, and not only that, but there are quite a few of them.
