After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields Chapter 684

Caiwei said: "Write down the names, ages, places of origin of my wife and children, as well as what kind of industry the family is engaged in, and then let the children answer some basic questions for me."

Qin Yao understood, "It's a different tune, isn't it?"

"What?" Caiwei was stunned for a moment, she didn't hear clearly.

Qin Yao smiled awkwardly, "It's nothing, I'll write it and you can ask."

Caiwei looked at Siniang, who suddenly became nervous, and told her to calm down. The two moved aside and sat down facing each other, and started asking questions.

Siniang thought that Caiwei would test her homework, so she was prepared.

Unexpectedly, the first thing Caiwei asked was: "Liu Pingling, right? What do you usually like to do?"

Siniang paused for a moment, and quickly replied easily: "I usually like reading, practicing calligraphy, and going to the river to catch fish."

　　It's embarrassing to say it out loud if you're playing house in the mud or something like that.

Caiwei asked again: "Then you have read the book?"

“Hmm, I went to a free school.” Siniang said proudly.

In the eyes of the little girl, this was a very big deal. After all, she had to defeat many competitors to get into the school.

Caiwei asked Siniang how old she was and calculated with her fingers that the year the free school was opened, she met the minimum age for admission.

“Then you are really lucky.” Caiwei admired sincerely.

Si Niang nodded in agreement, "Yeah! So I am most grateful to the adults who issued this decree!"

Caiwei asked with a smile: "Then do you know who issued this decree?"

Si Niang shook her head, she didn't know, neither did her parents, nor did Uncle Song Zhang.

“Sister Caiwei, does she know?” Siniang asked expectantly.

Caiwei nodded, "Of course, this is the wish that the Queen requested from Your Majesty on her 48th birthday for all the people of the world."

“Intentionally only limited to age, not male or female.”

Caiwei curiously asked the little girl in front of her, "Are there many girls like you who go to free schools?"

Siniang shook her head unhappily, "No, there are very few. We only have Sister Jinhua and me in our clan school, because those who came to register for admission are all boys and there are only a few girls. If we draw lots, the probability will be even lower. ”

Caiwei was a little surprised, "That's it."

But if you think about it carefully, people's inherent concepts are like a big mountain. It is so difficult to break it. We can only continue to work hard from generation to generation, just like the Foolish Old Man moving the mountain.

At least there is a Liu Pingling now. Thinking about it this way, Caiwei was quite happy.

She was quite surprised to hear the child mention the word probability, which is a word used in mathematics.

“How do you know the word probability?”

“What my father said.”

By coincidence, the family background check information of the student at Qin Yao's side had already written down the information of the child's father, Liu Ji, Juren.

No wonder the child knew that there was a scholar in the family.

"Caiwei, do you think this is okay?" Qin Yao made the last stroke and handed the paper over.

Caiwei: "Okay, let me take a look."

Taking the paper over, I looked down and saw that the handwriting was so special.

However, I have written everything that needs to be written, and I have also left my home address, which is indeed in Kuanzhengfang on Opposite Street.

Caiwei asked: "I will tell the dean about your affairs when she is done with her work. You can come to me at noon tomorrow to ask about the results. Go back today. The weather is hot and it is difficult for the child to wait." "Okay, then I will do it tomorrow. Bring the kids over again at noon.”

“That's right!” Qin Yao asked one more question: “Are there any requirements for accepting students in the garden?”

If so, she thought she could help her brother with a charity project, such as donating a classroom, renovating a playground, or something like that.

Caiwei seemed to be offended and frowned in displeasure, "Madam, as long as girls of the school age are eligible for admission to our Women's Garden, no matter how rich or humble they are, they can enroll."

Qin Yao was puzzled, "Then why are there only about a hundred students in the garden? Is it because Master's training is more expensive?"

"Those who are poor can be exempted from the amount of household expenses." Caiwei's voice was two points louder, but Qin Yao could tell that the anger was not directed at her.

Caiwei snorted angrily: "But even so, there are only so many people who are willing to send their girls to the women's garden."

The students in the girls' garden are wearing the same white clothes. Nothing can be seen from the clothes. However, the girls' buns are different, and the decoration on their heads can distinguish the situation at home at a glance.

Qin Yao has just observed that there are many girls wearing gold and jade hair accessories, and one is wearing a set of red coral necklaces.

Gold and jade can be said to mean that the family is rich in business.

But red coral is a special gift from the royal family, and it is not something that ordinary merchants or uncles from aristocratic families can get.

Otherwise she wouldn't have specifically asked if there were any hidden conditions.

If this was an ordinary girls' school, how could there be red coral?

But now after hearing Caiwei's angrily words, Qin Yao understood that the lack of people was not because the tuition fees in the women's academy were expensive, nor was it because there were hidden conditions in the women's academy.

It's because there are still too many people who have not been able to break free from the old etiquette system.

Especially in this imperial capital where aristocratic families are everywhere, how can the aristocratic families bow their noble heads to a newcomer?

However, there can be more than a hundred students in the Women's Academy, and in the future there will be two hundred, three hundred, or even three thousand!

Qin Yao smiled brightly at Caiwei, "In the future, there will be more and more students. If the Women's Garden has any financial difficulties in expanding, even if my fourth mother does not go to the Women's Garden, she can come to me. Within my ability, I will never decline!"

“Sister, let's go home first.” Qin Yao stretched out her hand to her daughter, “Say goodbye to my sister.”

Si Niang obediently bowed to Cai Wei, then took A Niang's hand and left.

It wasn't until the mother and daughter walked out of the gate, got on the carriage and drove away that Caiwei recovered from the shock.

In the three years since the Women's Garden has been running the school, this is the first time she has met a woman who speaks so freely!

With a "squeak", the closed door of the next room opened.

The dean is sending the guests out in a friendly manner.

Caiwei, who had never found a chance to speak, hurriedly walked over with the information sheet left by Qin Yao and her daughter.

When I saw the distinguished guest, I knelt down and bowed.

The guest paused at her and was about to leave when he suddenly caught a glimpse of the name on the information sheet in her hand and stopped.

The dean noticed it immediately and asked doubtfully: "Who came just now?"

Caiwei reported: "Dean, she is a lady who is going to send her daughter to study in the Women's Garden. Seeing that you are still busy, dean, I asked them to come back tomorrow."

He said, handing over the information form, "This is the student information I asked them to stay. Dean, please take a look."

Before the dean took it, the distinguished guest caught it in his hand. When he saw the word "Qin Yao" on it, he suddenly smiled and said to the dean: "You must not miss this student Tong Jia."

“When will she come tomorrow?”

Caiwei didn't understand why the guest had this reaction, but she still answered honestly.

“Then I'll come over again tomorrow at noon.”

The distinguished guest returned the information form, left these words, and left with a smile.

Seems to be looking forward to tomorrow very much. (End of chapter)
