【Now ask for peace, I might agree】
Now that she has decided to do it, Second Sister Ye is not pretentious, and went to Beishan Academy to decorate the classroom openly.
Mr. Mo vacated the attic on the east side for them to use.
There are three classrooms on the left and right sides, a lobby in the middle, a small hall in the back, and half rooms on the east and west ends, which can be used as offices for gentlemen.
The second floor has windows on all sides. The outside is a back-shaped porch, and the middle is a bright and bright lobby, which is just right for easels and looms.
There were a lot of things to clean up, Ye Fan borrowed some manpower from Li Yao, but he still seemed very hectic.
Mr. Mo sent those slightly older students over to help.
The soldiers on the school ground heard the letter and came over to help carry the table and bench during the break.
Yu Sanniang and Li Wuniang ran up and down with people, while Ye Erjie and Li Erniang stood one downstairs and the other upstairs, directing everyone to place tables and chairs and hang roller blinds.
The second sister Ye was surrounded by everyone asking questions, she was always methodical, she spoke softly with a convincing posture, confident and determined, exuding a vigor and vitality from head to toe.
Such Second Sister Ye attracted countless eyes.
The men made excuses to talk to her.
Second Sister Ye was always smiling, polite and decent.
Here, another tall and strong soldier came over with a long table, and asked with a smile: "Second lady, where is this table?"
"The third room from the west is the drawing room. The long table is next to the window, and the square table is in the middle hall." Second Sister Ye smiled and said the words she repeated countless times.
The soldier grinned, and generously claimed credit, "This is the tenth one I moved!"
Second Sister Ye slightly bent her knees, "Thank you, Mr. Jun."
The soldier winked behind him, as if showing off, without any malice.
Everyone laughed.
Guan Erlang strode over, holding a long table in each hand.As he approached, he kicked out his long legs, "Work hard, don't mess around!"
The tall and strong soldier couldn't dodge in time, he was kicked abruptly, and he had to smile, "Don't be annoyed at this moment, don't I just want to make a familiar face with my sister-in-law!"
"Get out of here!" Guan Erlang smiled, and kicked again, the force was obviously lighter.
The soldiers fled in all directions.
Guan Erlang turned around and smiled at Second Sister Ye, "They're all unscrupulous, Er Niang, don't blame me." ——In the past, they were called "Second Niangzi" politely, but they were changed to the more intimate "Second Niangzi" at some point. mother".
"It's okay." Second Sister Ye tried her best to maintain a calm appearance, but her reddish cheeks betrayed her.
Guan Erlang watched greedily, until Second Sister Ye called out to chase them away, then he left with a smile.
In the corridor, Yu Sanniang was walking carefully with a thin-necked vase in her arms.
Guan Wulang was holding the flower basket in one hand and the stool in the other, and was vigilantly blocking the men and women passing by. He looked like he wanted to protect Yu Sanniang in his arms and not let anyone touch him.
Everyone looked at them cheerfully, although they didn't say anything, the eyes full of ridicule were more embarrassing than saying anything.
Yu Sanniang blushed, raised her arms to punch Guan Wulang, "You move yours, I'll move mine, don't follow me!"
Guan Wulang poked his neck, "How can it be done? You are my wife, and I have to protect you."
Yu Sanniang's pretty face turned red, "Nonsense, I-haven't married yet!"
"Sooner or later." Guan Goro took it for granted.
"Goro can't wait!"
The onlookers couldn't hold back and laughed loudly.
Yu Sanniang was so ashamed that she stuffed the vase into Guan Wulang's arms, covered her face and ran away.
Guan Goro chased after him with a bunch of things in his arms, like a big clumsy bear.
Everyone laughed more heartily.
Li Erniang held on to the window lattice, watching this scene in her eyes.
The second sister Ye is guarded by Guan Erlang, and Yu Sanniang is guarded by Guan Wulang, and even Ye Fan, a young man, is cared about by his elder brother.
——Just now Li Yao was worried, so he watched people twice. Hearing that Ye Fan was busy moving the table, he resorted to a way to call people away.
Li Erniang pinched the handkerchief, feeling envious in her heart.
The thick soles of the shoes made a dull sound when they stepped on the wooden floor.The voice was very heavy, and it seemed to be made on purpose, to remind her specially.
Li Erniang turned her head and unexpectedly saw a familiar face.
"Master An?"
An Rong smiled gently, and took the hand, "This is not an official place, just call me Zhongyuan."
"Your Excellency, you are joking." Li Erniang bent her knees, lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes, showing a slight alienation.
In her opinion, the reason why An Rong acted so close and unassuming was just to do business with his brother.But she couldn't forget that she had been engaged to his elder brother for several years and almost got married.
Facing her indifference, An Rong still smiled and waved his hands behind him.
The leader stepped forward and put a huge rattan box on the ground.
Li Erniang was wondering, when she saw An Rong opened the lid of the box, revealing the contents inside—it turned out to be brand new books.
Li Erniang was surprised, "Master An, this is..."
"Call me Zhongyuan." An Rong corrected.
Li Erniang squeezed the handkerchief, but said nothing.
An Rong didn't force it, and naturally turned the topic back to the book, "Here are the "Thousand Characters" and "Hundred Family Surnames" for enlightenment, and "Tang Yun" for poetry, and the 'Four Books' and 'Five Classics' , each with a hundred volumes, with meager efforts, please accept the second lady."
Li Erniang didn't say a word, just leaned over and picked up a book in a daze. It wasn't the Four Books, Five Classics, and Thousand Characters Wen he said, but a book of miscellaneous tales, and the "Anzhou Local Chronicles" was exposed underneath.
Her expression changed involuntarily.
Is... did you take it wrong?
An Rong's next words exposed her self-deception.
"Hearing that Marquis Chang'an mentioned by chance that the fifth lady is good at martial arts, and the second lady loves reading. She especially likes these local chronicles and miscellaneous talks about unofficial history. The people below picked up a few copies."
Regardless of whether it was really "by the way" or not, since he said so, Li Erniang had no choice but to walk down the steps, otherwise it would inevitably seem too petty.
"So, thank you, my lord."
After all, she couldn't be angry, and in the blink of an eye, she retaliated a little, "It's just that we are a female school here, so there is no "Women's Rules" and "Women's Precepts"?"
The little lady who showed a little bit of sharpness made An Rong smile.
"Er Niangzi thinks that Beishan Academy really needs "Rules for Women" and "Precepts for Women"?"
"It doesn't matter what I think, the world thinks we need it."
An Rong held back his smile, revealing a slightly aggressive posture.
"Then don't care about the world."
"The world will not live for you."
"Just ask your own heart, that's all."
Li Erniang froze for a moment, then bent her knees again, a touch of emotion flashed in her slightly drooping eyes that she hadn't even noticed.
***
There are many people and strength, and the attic was tidied up within two days.
On the plaque written by Li Erniang herself, the three characters "Lanhui Pavilion" are free and easy, elegant and yet proud, which really corresponds to the meaning of "Hui quality orchid heart".
Prior to this, Li Yao ordered his family to beat the gong to announce the trilogy in all villages and towns, and the male students in the school also sent letters to the adults at home, saying that anyone, regardless of age, could come and read it.
On the fifth day of July, the first day officially recruits students.
Second Sister Ye and her team waited early in the attic, with tea, snacks and a thick registration booklet on the table.
In the hall are pens, ink, bookcases, and enlightenment books sponsored by An Rong, all of which are intended to be given away for free.
Watching the sun rise and fall, the sound of reciting books at the male school stopped and stopped, but still no one came.
Although Second Sister Ye didn't show anything on her face, she couldn't help feeling uneasy in her heart. What if there is no one?
It's not that I'm afraid of embarrassment, I'm just worried about losing this opportunity.
These days, Lan Hui Pavilion was taken care of by them themselves, which floor tiles were missing a corner, and which table had flowers on them, all of which were printed in her mind one by one.
This is emotion.
With feelings, there are expectations, and with expectations, it is inevitable to worry about gains and losses.
Li Erniang also lost her composure, restless.
Yu Sanniang and Li Wuniang simply ran to the door, stretched their necks to look, and whenever they saw a woman holding a doll in their hands, they clasped their hands together, praying for them to enter the school.
Several in succession, but one disappointment after another.
Seeing that noon was approaching, the tea on the table had been changed by three pots, and the registration booklet was still blank.
Just when the ladies were all discouraged, a slim figure came hurriedly.
"But it's too late?" Mrs. Jiang explained softly, with faint sweat on the tip of her nose, "Today, there was a big gathering in the county, and all the boats went west, and I waited for a long time for one to arrive."
Li Wuniang took her hand and said with a half-annoyance and half-smile, "What's the matter, there's no one there."
Miss Jiang glanced at the roster, and immediately smiled, "That's because they don't have eyes."
Unexpectedly, such a gentle woman could say such a thing, Second Sister Ye couldn't help smiling.
"Please sit down."
"Thank you, Sister Ye." Miss Jiang gave a shallow gift to them.
Everyone returned the gift together and took their seats.
Yu Sanniang asked crisply, "Is Sister Jiang here to sign up, or to watch the fun?"
Miss Jiang smiled slightly, "I'm here to sign up."
Everyone was overjoyed.
Li Wuniang even jumped up happily, "Really?"
Mrs. Jiang nodded, "I heard that there is no age limit, so I came here brazenly. If gentlemen don't mind, please accept me."
Li Erniang smiled wryly, "How can I dislike it? If not, the four of us 'sirs' are going to teach you this student together."
"No." Mrs. Jiang said firmly, "There are always people who don't want to miss such a good opportunity that you can't even ask for. Maybe you were caught by something, maybe you were waiting and watching. After all, there are still two days. And wait."
Many people are like this, they have to be led by someone before they are willing to follow along.
Second Sister Ye poured tea and handed it to her, "I would like to lend you a good word."
Miss Jiang nodded and thanked her.
Looking at the elegant furnishings in the house, seeing Li Erniang's overall demeanor, seeing the strength of character exuded by the second sister Ye, seeing Li Wuniang's self-confidence, and Yu Sanniang's friendliness, she felt that she was right.
Near noon, another person came, still a little acquaintance.
Tian Niu'er, the little girl Guan Erxiao swore she would marry when she grows up, tugged at the hem of her mother's clothes, pouted with red eyes, and looked at Second Sister Ye persistently.
Second Sister Ye knelt down and gently wiped away the tears from the little girl's face, "What's wrong?"
"I-I want to study with my second little brother..." Tian Niu said, crying again.
Tian's daughter-in-law hurriedly squeezed her hand, looking a little embarrassed, "I was crying to go to school early in the morning, I thought, she can't understand words at her age, how can ladies accept it? Why are you tired for nothing? .”
Yu Sanniang said first: "My second wife said that it doesn't matter what age you are, as long as you think about it, you can do it. Besides, Tian Niu'er is smart, we can't bear any tiredness."
Tian's daughter-in-law was greatly relieved to hear what she said straightforwardly, and went straight to her pocket, "Do you want to teach money, how much is enough?"
Li Erniang was puzzled, "Didn't you hear that not only do you not need to study at school, but you can get books, paper, pen and ink in the school."
The daughter-in-law of Tian's family stopped her movements, and said embarrassingly: "I heard it, but... I don't really believe it."
It's all suffering, and suffering too much will inevitably lead to vigilance.
Li Erniang and Ye Erjie looked at each other, and their tone became more gentle, "Since that's the case, I'll trouble my sister-in-law to go back and say something."
The woman repeatedly agreed.
Yu Sanniang took Tian Niuer's hand and asked her to choose brushes and inks by herself.
While picking, someone came in again, it was Xu Niang from Beilai Village.
This is the leader of the few women that Liao Yu brought with him. He is in his forties and has a straightforward personality.
"I will sign up for the daughter of Ying's family. She is frying tartary buckwheat tea at home today and can't come out."
Second Sister Ye smiled, "Fanzi is in a hurry this time, thank you sisters-in-law."
Xu Niang waved her hand, "I can't say that, Xiao Lang has never treated us badly."
Second Sister Ye smiled and poured a bowl of tea for her.
Xu Niang quickly took it with her hand, she didn't have the nerve to drink it, and said: "By the way, can you pay it back if you are married?"
"Regardless of age, it doesn't matter whether you are married or not."
Xu Niang patted her thigh, "It's good to catch up with the situation! In this way, please trouble the lady to write down two more. Duan Niang and Lin Niang have good brains, let them learn to read and learn arithmetic, and they will not suffer anywhere in the future."
Li Erniang held on to the pen, rolled up her sleeves, and wrote down their names, village names, and courses they wanted to learn.
The teeny-headed Xiaokai is very delicate, and Xu Niang is amazed when she sees it, "I only wish I couldn't be ten years younger, otherwise I will definitely follow suit."
"It's not too late to learn now."
"No, this brain is heavier than that millstone, and three donkeys can't turn it!"
The ladies covered their mouths with handkerchiefs and smiled coquettishly.
Some people came one after another.
In two days, more than 50 students, big and small, received more than [-] students, which far exceeded everyone's expectations.
It's true that Mrs. Jiang is right, these people are just waiting for someone to take the lead!
***
On the seventh day of July, Beishan Academy officially opened.
Li Yao asked someone to move a row of two kickers that made continuous noises. After being lit, they could jump into the sky. The sound was loud, and the meaning was good.
Although the purpose of running a school is not to make a profit, I also hope that it will be smooth and prosperous.Because Second Sister Ye became a school order, Ye Fan was very attentive, and the job of lighting firecrackers naturally fell on him.
He plugged his ears, held the incense, and stood far away, stretching out his arms to light it.
The cannon was not lit, and the laughter of the villagers rang out first.
——Xiao Langjun is so cowardly, he dare not light a cannon!
If this matter is placed on someone else's head, even if it is to win a sigh of relief, you have to be brave enough to point it out.Ye Fan was not, he lost his face anyway, wouldn't it be a loss if he insisted on it?
He folded the incense and yelled shamelessly: "Whoever wants to light it, whoever wants to light it, I won't light it anyway."
He was stabbed in the eye by a second kicker when he was a child, and he had a psychological shadow. Others didn't know about it, but Li Yao knew it.
He gave Li Silang a wink, and Silang understood, blew on the torch, squatted down, and lit the firecracker.
With a "bang", half of the cannonball rushed straight into the air.
Everyone raised their necks to see.
There was another "bang", and the artillery battle in the air exploded.
The villagers all showed surprised expressions.
It was the first time they saw a firecracker that could fly into the sky, and it was also the first time they heard such a loud firecracker.
Since it is a row of firecrackers, it takes eighteen shots to stop.
Every time there is a sound, everyone exclaims, which can be regarded as an eye addiction.
Ye Fan's expression was not very good, "Are you making hot weapons?"
He could tell at a glance that this firecracker was made by Li Yao.Besides firecrackers, is there anything else?
Li Yao knew what he was thinking, and explained in a warm voice: "The task issued by the king does not necessarily need to be used."
Ye Fan squinted at him, with a sour tone, "When did the king send out the task, why didn't I, the host, know?"
Seeing that his hair was about to blow up, Li Yao patiently patted his hair down, "The task reward is the temperature control equipment in the wine cellar, which is just in time for wine making when the grapes come down during the Mid-Autumn Festival."
These words really hit Ye Fan's heart. These days, he is worrying about this matter. He has the brewing equipment, but he forgot to change the temperature controller. nothing.
However, sugar-coated cannonballs are one thing, and the issue of principle cannot be ambiguous, "We have agreed before that we cannot use previous technologies in war."
Li Yao nodded, "Don't worry."
Ye Fan was really relieved when he said that.He believed that Li Yao would never perfunctory him in this matter, if he was not sincere, he would not agree.
When the crisis was resolved, Ye Fan relaxed and joked, "Why are you so obedient?"
Li Yao smiled, "I will listen to everything you say."
Ye Fan squinted at him, "Then I'll say one more thing, will you listen?"
"You said."
Ye Fan squeezed his fist secretly, and said in a joking tone: "If you ask for peace now, maybe I will agree."
Li Yao smiled, "Really?"
Ye Fan nodded, waiting for him to speak.
The two walked a long way, but Li Yao still didn't say anything.
Ye Fan's face darkened, and he was very angry, "Do you want to reconcile?"
Li Yao turned sideways, smiled and said something in his ear.
Ye Fan was taken aback for a moment, then widened his eyes.
"Don't even think about it!"
"You are so beautiful!"
"impossible!"
Li Yao raised his eyebrows and strode away.
Ye Fan chased after him, trying to kill him.
And... a bit reluctant.
Now that she has decided to do it, Second Sister Ye is not pretentious, and went to Beishan Academy to decorate the classroom openly.
Mr. Mo vacated the attic on the east side for them to use.
There are three classrooms on the left and right sides, a lobby in the middle, a small hall in the back, and half rooms on the east and west ends, which can be used as offices for gentlemen.
The second floor has windows on all sides. The outside is a back-shaped porch, and the middle is a bright and bright lobby, which is just right for easels and looms.

Guan Wulang was holding the flower basket in one hand and the stool in the other, and was vigilantly blocking the men and women passing by. He looked like he wanted to protect Yu Sanniang in his arms and not let anyone touch him.
Everyone looked at them cheerfully, although they didn't say anything, the eyes full of ridicule were more embarrassing than saying anything.
Yu Sanniang blushed, raised her arms to punch Guan Wulang, "You move yours, I'll move mine, don't follow me!"
Guan Wulang poked his neck, "How can it be done? You are my wife, and I have to protect you."
Yu Sanniang's pretty face turned red, "Nonsense, I-haven't married yet!"
"Sooner or later." Guan Goro took it for granted.
"Goro can't wait!"
The onlookers couldn't hold back and laughed loudly.
Yu Sanniang was so ashamed that she stuffed the vase into Guan Wulang's arms, covered her face and ran away.
Guan Goro chased after him with a bunch of things in his arms, like a big clumsy bear.
Everyone laughed more heartily.
Li Erniang held on to the window lattice, watching this scene in her eyes.
The second sister Ye is guarded by Guan Erlang, and Yu Sanniang is guarded by Guan Wulang, and even Ye Fan, a young man, is cared about by his elder brother.
——Just now Li Yao was worried, so he watched people twice. Hearing that Ye Fan was busy moving the table, he resorted to a way to call people away.
Li Erniang pinched the handkerchief, feeling envious in her heart.

Looking at the elegant furnishings in the house, seeing Li Erniang's overall demeanor, seeing the strength of character exuded by the second sister Ye, seeing Li Wuniang's self-confidence, and Yu Sanniang's friendliness, she felt that she was right.
Near noon, another person came, still a little acquaintance.
Tian Niu'er, the little girl Guan Erxiao swore she would marry when she grows up, tugged at the hem of her mother's clothes, pouted with red eyes, and looked at Second Sister Ye persistently.
Second Sister Ye knelt down and gently wiped away the tears from the little girl's face, "What's wrong?"
"I-I want to study with my second little brother..." Tian Niu said, crying again.
Tian's daughter-in-law hurriedly squeezed her hand, looking a little embarrassed, "I was crying to go to school early in the morning, I thought, she can't understand words at her age, how can ladies accept it? Why are you tired for nothing? .”
Yu Sanniang said first: "My second wife said that it doesn't matter what age you are, as long as you think about it, you can do it. Besides, Tian Niu'er is smart, we can't bear any tiredness."

The daughter-in-law of Tian's family stopped her movements, and said embarrassingly: "I heard it, but... I don't really believe it."
It's all suffering, and suffering too much will inevitably lead to vigilance.
Li Erniang and Ye Erjie looked at each other, and their tone became more gentle, "Since that's the case, I'll trouble my sister-in-law to go back and say something."

Xu Niang waved her hand, "I can't say that, Xiao Lang has never treated us badly."
Second Sister Ye smiled and poured a bowl of tea for her.
Xu Niang quickly took it with her hand, she didn't have the nerve to drink it, and said: "By the way, can you pay it back if you are married?"
"Regardless of age, it doesn't matter whether you are married or not."
Xu Niang patted her thigh, "It's good to catch up with the situation! In this way, please trouble the lady to write down two more. Duan Niang and Lin Niang have good brains, let them learn to read and learn arithmetic, and they will not suffer anywhere in the future."
Li Erniang held on to the pen, rolled up her sleeves, and wrote down their names, village names, and courses they wanted to learn.
The teeny-headed Xiaokai is very delicate, and Xu Niang is amazed when she sees it, "I only wish I couldn't be ten years younger, otherwise I will definitely follow suit."
"It's not too late to learn now."
"No, this brain is heavier than that millstone, and three donkeys can't turn it!"
The ladies covered their mouths with handkerchiefs and smiled coquettishly.
Some people came one after another.
In two days, more than 50 students, big and small, received more than [-] students, which far exceeded everyone's expectations.
It's true that Mrs. Jiang is right, these people are just waiting for someone to take the lead!
***
On the seventh day of July, Beishan Academy officially opened.
Li Yao asked someone to move a row of two kickers that made continuous noises. After being lit, they could jump into the sky. The sound was loud, and the meaning was good.
Although the purpose of running a school is not to make a profit, I also hope that it will be smooth and prosperous.Because Second Sister Ye became a school order, Ye Fan was very attentive, and the job of lighting firecrackers naturally fell on him.
He plugged his ears, held the incense, and stood far away, stretching out his arms to light it.
The cannon was not lit, and the laughter of the villagers rang out first.
——Xiao Langjun is so cowardly, he dare not light a cannon!
If this matter is placed on someone else's head, even if it is to win a sigh of relief, you have to be brave enough to point it out.Ye Fan was not, he lost his face anyway, wouldn't it be a loss if he insisted on it?
He folded the incense and yelled shamelessly: "Whoever wants to light it, whoever wants to light it, I won't light it anyway."
He was stabbed in the eye by a second kicker when he was a child, and he had a psychological shadow. Others didn't know about it, but Li Yao knew it.
He gave Li Silang a wink, and Silang understood, blew on the torch, squatted down, and lit the firecracker.
With a "bang", half of the cannonball rushed straight into the air.
Everyone raised their necks to see.
There was another "bang", and the artillery battle in the air exploded.
The villagers all showed surprised expressions.
It was the first time they saw a firecracker that could fly into the sky, and it was also the first time they heard such a loud firecracker.
Since it is a row of firecrackers, it takes eighteen shots to stop.
Every time there is a sound, everyone exclaims, which can be regarded as an eye addiction.
Ye Fan's expression was not very good, "Are you making hot weapons?"
He could tell at a glance that this firecracker was made by Li Yao.Besides firecrackers, is there anything else?
Li Yao knew what he was thinking, and explained in a warm voice: "The task issued by the king does not necessarily need to be used."
Ye Fan squinted at him, with a sour tone, "When did the king send out the task, why didn't I, the host, know?"
Seeing that his hair was about to blow up, Li Yao patiently patted his hair down, "The task reward is the temperature control equipment in the wine cellar, which is just in time for wine making when the grapes come down during the Mid-Autumn Festival."
These words really hit Ye Fan's heart. These days, he is worrying about this matter. He has the brewing equipment, but he forgot to change the temperature controller. nothing.
However, sugar-coated cannonballs are one thing, and the issue of principle cannot be ambiguous, "We have agreed before that we cannot use previous technologies in war."
Li Yao nodded, "Don't worry."
Ye Fan was really relieved when he said that.He believed that Li Yao would never perfunctory him in this matter, if he was not sincere, he would not agree.
When the crisis was resolved, Ye Fan relaxed and joked, "Why are you so obedient?"
Li Yao smiled, "I will listen to everything you say."
Ye Fan squinted at him, "Then I'll say one more thing, will you listen?"
"You said."
Ye Fan squeezed his fist secretly, and said in a joking tone: "If you ask for peace now, maybe I will agree."
Li Yao smiled, "Really?"
Ye Fan nodded, waiting for him to speak.
The two walked a long way, but Li Yao still didn't say anything.
Ye Fan's face darkened, and he was very angry, "Do you want to reconcile?"
Li Yao turned sideways, smiled and said something in his ear.
Ye Fan was taken aback for a moment, then widened his eyes.
"Don't even think about it!"
"You are so beautiful!"
"impossible!"
Li Yao raised his eyebrows and strode away.
Ye Fan chased after him, trying to kill him.
And... a bit reluctant.
