The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty

Zheng Ling just felt that a bit of cold was surging in his heart, not to mention whether this method could be operated successfully, he only had to think about the scene, it was enough.

A family of three, the oldest son, is this fair?

Not to mention, my mother is still Zhao Yunchu...

In order to fight Zheng Ling, Zhao Yunchu really fought, but seeing Zheng Ling's ugly face, he was still very proud, as if he had grasped some of Zheng Ling's dead spots.

At this time, Yun Yanhui put down the child and turned around, but seeing a strange atmosphere flowing between Zheng Ling and Zhao Yunchu, he couldn't help but be surprised: "I was not here just now, did you quarrel again?"

Yun Yan replied calmly and persuaded them: "How old people are, just quarreling when they were young, and arguing when they are so big, isn't this for outsiders to show jokes? It's all a family!"

Zhao Yunchu: "..."

Zheng Ling: "..."

Although Yun Yan returned to the "family" without profound meaning, the two of them felt guilty and naturally heard different meanings.

Yun Yan looked back when they were silent, and pointed to the weighing man who was supporting A Huan’s medical examination, and said, “Look at them. They have also grown up together since childhood. They help each other, how good their relationship is, not to mention that you still have relatives. Of..."

From his own point of view, there is naturally a relative relationship, but this will only make Zhao Yunchu and Zheng Ling more restless.

"Don't say it," Zheng Ling said sadly, "It's all my fault, let's go, I'll go pick up the style."

Looking at Zheng Ling's desolate back, Yun Yan asked Zhao Yunchu in surprise: "It's rare that you have won a complete victory so far. Isn't it because your eloquence has grown recently?"

Zhao Yunchu smiled sweetly, "I have been with Ge Yan for a long time, and I will naturally grow more or less."

Zheng Ling heard this and didn't know what he was going to be angry with.

...

In the afternoon, all children of the Charity and Childhood Bureau checked their bodies and measured their dimensions. This is a relatively large order, so in order to be able to make it as soon as the Charity Bureau requires, the tailor shop will also make another appointment with a colleague who is familiar with it to complete it.

Zheng Ling also finished gathering, and returned with a lot of harvest.

Later, when I recalled, Cheng Deng thought that after Mr. Yun came, the Charity and Childhood Bureau had changed with each passing day. When they ordered meat to eat, they not only had meat to eat, but also new clothes. When they looked forward to new clothes, not only the tailor came to measure the body, but the doctor came to check the pulse.

And the next day, the Charity and Childhood Bureau welcomed three more gentlemen from the Imperial Academy.

The younger children didn't understand the concept of the Hanlin Academy. They only heard that they were from colleges. The older ones were sensible, and they became more surprised.

In the past, only a small number of children in the Charity Bureau had the opportunity to go to elementary school as part-time students. Naturally, it chose some smart and gifted children.

Now, they learn that every other day, a husband comes to class, and everyone can attend the class.

He was so happy and unbelievable. He went to find Mr. Yun, held Mr. Yun's hand and said, "My mother-in-law said that I am so stupid. I will definitely not be able to go to elementary school in the future. Can Mr. Hanlin want me?"

"Zi said: There is no kind of education." Mr. Yun said such a sentence.

He didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, but Mr. Yun was going to be busy, so after the class, Mr. Hanlin—No, Mr. corrected him. You can't call him that, just call him Mr. Li. After Mr. Li introduced himself, he asked everyone if there were any questions.

At this time, the scale raised his hand and asked, what does it mean to be taught or not?

Mr. Li was taken aback and told them that this sentence was said by the saint, meaning that no matter what kind of person can be educated, of course, it also includes scales. Moreover, this can make him change, getting smarter, and finally, not worse than others.

In Cheng Dun's mind, this sentence was so great that he couldn't understand it, but the meaning of it was explained by Mr. Li, which made him feel particularly good. The saint is very powerful, Mr. Yun is very powerful, and Mr. Li is also very powerful, and he can actually know such things.

The children of Cheng Deng were all under ten years old. Under the leadership of Mr. Li, they held an opening ceremony, worshiped Master Confucius, and then began to give lectures.

Everyone is very serious, not only because this is the first time in class, it is very fresh, they are young, but they vaguely know that reading is very important, this may be an opportunity to change their destiny.

Some of this kind of knowledge comes from the mouth of others, but more is the impression left by witnessing it with your own eyes, and it doesn't need any reason to reflect it.

Some of the older children of the Charity and Childhood Bureau have read books, and some have not read books. After they leave the Charity and Childhood Bureau, they occasionally come back to see them, or someone reports about their current situation. Those elder brothers and sisters who have read books are always in a much better situation than those who have not read books.

Many people know that there was an older brother who had gone out of the Charity Bureau. He was sent to elementary school. Later he won himself and was admitted to the university. Later he became a master of a college, bought his own home in Susukada, and married him. Married.

The fate of this elder brother is the envy of many children in the Charity Childhood Council, and this is the best future they know.

Hard work usually starts from the Charity Bureau. Only a few people can go to elementary school, and even fewer of these people can have the next step.

But I can’t read, I can do many things if I am literate, there are more choices than I am illiterate, and the types of jobs are more decent.

Now there is such an opportunity of "teaching but not class", how can they not cherish it.

...

After another five days, the tailor's shop delivered all the new clothes. Everyone gathered together and waited in line to call their name and pick up the new clothes.

Everyone's new clothes look the same. Except for the different sizes, they are very beautiful. They are reddish-brown. They are also wrapped and embroidered on the chest, but many people can't understand them.

The older literate child said that everyone's name was written on it, as well as the words of Charity and Childhood Bureau.

After picking up his clothes, the weighing mound happily touched it again, tried it on again, and then yelled: "No, it's wrong, this is not my clothes!"

"Why not?" Xiao Yan'er said, "Brother Cheng Du, look how well you dress."

"It doesn't fit the body anymore, you see, what is written here is not my name." The scaled mound pointed to the words on his chest and said, "the scaled mound is two words, but there are three words written here!"

"Yeah!" Xiao Yan'er looked at it, and it turned out to be like this, "Brother Cheng Deng is really smart, this is really not your clothes."

Yun Yan was back there to help send clothes together. Hearing the weighing mound shouting here, he walked over and took a look, "Let me see, did you send it wrong?" He read the name on the clothes, "Chen Daquan... Chen Who is Daquan? Is this Chen Daquan's clothes?"

"Look, I'll just say that these are Chen Daquan's clothes..." Qian Duan said happily, suddenly feeling something wrong, scratching his head, "Wait, Chen Daquan...it seems to be my name."

"..." Yun Yan couldn't laugh or cry back, "Weighing, you have to think about it before you remember this is your name?"

He was very embarrassed by the weight of his head lowered and his face flushed.

The children all around laughed, "Weighing can't even remember his own name!"

"I remember, I remember!" The weight said in a low voice, "Oh, I just forgot it for a while!"

He grabbed his clothes, stared at the three square characters, and decided that he must write them down so that he would not admit his mistakes in the future.

For many people, this is also the first time they have seen how their names are written, and they are quite curious, even holding branches and copying them on the ground.

Lin Yi saw this scene of laughter and laughter, and he was very emotional, "These are all good children, how easy it is to be satisfied."

"Yeah." Yun Yan recalled, because they had too little, but soon Zheng Ling and their public service advertisements could be posted.

...

At the end of the month, Zheng Ling's team's orphan theme comics were published in a periodical, and it really caused a lot of repercussions.

Although there is no "Three Kingdoms" comic book in this issue, there are not many complaints. Even if there were, they soon disappeared.

This comic strip corresponds to a very wide-ranging social phenomenon. People can't afford to raise their children, they have no choice but to abandon them, and dare not look at them anymore. These children are striving to survive with the support of the imperial court.

In the comic strip, an old jigsaw puzzle that ordinary people can't make use of is being donated, and it becomes the most precious treasure of the children of the Charity and Childhood Bureau. The children who are lucky enough to go to school, after returning, hand over the words they have learned to others, using branches as pens and clay as paper...

Through the platform of "Tokyo Daily" and through the presentation of comic strips, the Charity and Childhood Bureau appealed to the citizens of Tokyo, hoping that they could donate the things they don't need to Charity and Childhood Bureau, food and clothing.

Families with conditions are also welcome to adopt these children. Most of them are in good health.

Moved by the comic strip, many people immediately searched for the old things that were not needed at home and sent them to the Charity Bureau.

Many palace people even moved a beautiful elephant-shaped slide and put it on the open space.

Everyone was around, almost all the children didn't even know what it was. They have never seen an elephant or a slide, and they don't know what it is for.

Yun Yan explained back to them: "This is a gift from Her Royal Highness the Eighth Princess. This is called a slide. It was originally her favorite toy."

Toys?

The children find it incredible, is there such a big toy? Here, the most popular one is the swing, but compared to this, it's really insignificant.

"It was made based on the shape of an animal called an elephant, have you heard of it? Look, this long one is the elephant's trunk, the eyes are here, and the tail is this." Yun Yan explained back.

When Yun Yan said this, many talented people suddenly realized that they had heard of it somehow, but because they hadn't seen it before, they couldn't correspond to this exquisite object for a while. After listening to the explanation and looking at it, it was indeed the same.

Yun Yan explained the game again, helped them up one by one, and then slid down.

At the beginning, everyone heard that this was a princess’s old thing, and they were a little timid, but after all, they were children, and they gradually relaxed and felt the fun. They smiled and slid down and continued to line up, round after round.

When it was time for dinner, things that made them even more happy did they appear.

Because there were a lot of donations, civilians donated old things, and wealthy merchants and nobles not only donated old things, but also donated money and food, so they added meat in the evening. Nursing women are still sending toys to them.

Because of the deep impression of the comic strip, the toys that received the most from the Charity Game are toys, tangrams, clay dolls, chess pieces... everything, enough to send everyone one more!

The whole cafeteria was full of noise. Fortunately, it was only after the meal, otherwise they would have had no intention of eating. At the moment, they were all seeing each other what they had learned, and they made an appointment to play together.

Standing aside and looking over, these children were uniformly dressed in swift red-brown clothes, all of which were well-fitted. After these days, the broth and whether it was an extra meal, their faces were full.

At Yun Yanhui's request, they also paid more attention to cleanliness, washing their faces and hands cleanly. After my husband’s teaching, I have also made great progress in etiquette. After a meal, my mouth is clean.

Now holding the toy, he smiled happily.

It was less than a month, but it was very different from before, revealing a kind of vigor.

A woman who had been in the Charity and Childhood Bureau for five years whispered to her companion: "This place looks like an orphan, it looks better than my house."

"That's right," her companion nodded in agreement, "I think the gentlemen of the Hanlin Academy are capable. They used to be very skinny. They taught me, now they will salute me!"

"That's for sure, there is also this meal of broth fed down, eat well, of course I will study hard."

"Remember, there used to be people who came to adopt for adoption, always pick and choose, and look down on them. Now if someone comes, they have to be dazzled. You said that all of them are clean, and they are still reading and polite, if it weren’t for me. I have a child, I want to adopt it too!"

As the two women talked, their eyes fell to the corner of the cafeteria. Sitting there was a group of teenagers over ten years old, most of whom were 13 or 4 years old.

"Orphans can stay in the Charity Bureau until they are eighteen years old. I really don't know if they are lucky or unlucky."

If someone comes to adopt, they will definitely be willing to adopt a younger child, so that they can be adopted. These half-year-old children are in an embarrassing situation.

If they are younger and catch up with this good time, their chances of being adopted will increase a lot. But now, I have caught up with the tail anyway, and I can read for a while, and then go out to find work, which is better than being completely illiterate.

But being alone is not much better. The Charity and Childhood Bureau can introduce work, but it is limited.

Theoretically, children in the Charity Childhood Council are only raised until the age of fifteen, and from fifteen to eighteen years old, these few years are the adjustment period for them, and they can still live here, but they have to pay for it. , It's cheaper than living outside, but it also costs a lot of money.

Complete independence at the age of eighteen, and start to make money at the age of fifteen. After some children go out and cannot make money, they just follow the gangsters.

——Speaking of which, Kaifeng Mansion has recently cleared up the atmosphere, and there is no future for being a gangster.
