Chapter 333 Shui Qing was also invited to speak
After the old village chief finished speaking, he attracted the resonance of the trembling old people.
"If anyone does not behave like a human being, don't blame us old bones for not being able to speak well after he goes to the underworld!"
"Unless you don't enter the ancestral tomb, if you dare to bury yourself in the ancestral tomb after doing something bad, then we will settle the accounts."
"Don't let him rest in peace after death!"
.....
Shui Qing came late and just happened to hear what the old man in the village said.
She was shocked!
You know, people these days believe in ghosts and gods very much, and the elderly are even more afraid of death, and never say it out loud. What happened today?
They can say it so unanimously and without fear!
The younger generations who were listening to the lecture responded loudly: "Don't worry, old village chief, we are not ungrateful people! If anyone dares not remember, I will be the first to not forgive him!"
"Don't even mention entering the village's ancestral tomb, even if he is buried around the village, I will dig him out and throw him out!"
"I agree, people who repay kindness with hatred are not worthy of our village's incense!"
......
Shui Qing was even more frightened when she heard this.
Strange, not entering the ancestral tomb is more serious than seeing an official for the people in the village.
How shameless was Zhang Baldy before? He was not afraid of seeing an official, but the old village chief said that he would not be allowed to enter the village's ancestral tomb, and he immediately admitted his mistake!
These men and women in front of them are even more powerful. Not only do they not allow him to enter the ancestral tomb, they also do not allow him to be buried around the village. Who doesn't pay attention to returning to his roots? This is digging up even the roots, cruel, it's really too cruel!
She raised her voice and echoed: "I agree too!"
She saw all the eyes looking at her, and she was confused.
What's going on? There were clearly women shouting just now, could it be that she was too young?
Fan Jin, who was standing next to the old village chief, was dressed in a long gown and stood tall, with his black and moist eyes looking over with a faint smile.
Shui Qing couldn't help blushing.
Fan Jin didn't intend to speak at first, but he couldn't bear to see Shui Qing confused, so he gently said, "I don't deserve your kindness, but the old village chief is right, people who repay kindness with hatred are indeed not worthy of entering the ancestral tomb, nor are they worthy of receiving incense."
The old village chief didn't say who he was grateful to, which was very good. If he said it openly, it would seem like he was forcing someone to repay a favor, and it would be more like repaying a favor with a favor. This half-concealed and half-revealed will make everyone remember it in their hearts and deepen it repeatedly.
Shui Qing didn't hear what the old village chief said before, so naturally she didn't know that the kindness he was talking about was referring to her family, but since he didn't say it, it was just right to explain it.
The surrounding villagers immediately felt that these two people were truly open and aboveboard! The heat in my chest surged, and I couldn't calm down for a long time.
It can be said that their village completely depends on Shuiqing and Fan Jin. They all understand the meaning of the old village chief's words, but the parties pretend not to know and extend their personal kindness to everyone in the village!
In the future, no matter who repays kindness with hatred, it is not allowed!
The old village chief was even more pleased.
His eyes were full of satisfaction. God really treated him well, allowing him to see the village getting better and better in his lifetime, and to see his descendants living better and better.
He looked at Shuiqing below, "Jin boy Hu Shuiqing, you two come up and talk."
There has never been a precedent in the village for women to come up and speak on major events, but no one objected, just thinking that it was natural for Shuiqing to go up and speak.
Fan's mother and Sun Jinhua did have opinions, but they didn't dare to raise them at all.
Just now, it was said that the people in the village should be united, and ungrateful people should not be buried in the ancestral tomb. Now if you go up, it will anger the public, you can't be so tactful.
Fan Jin stepped aside and waved to Shuiqing.
Shuiqing used to speak in front of many workers. She was not afraid of the stage, but she knew that no one liked to listen to big principles and empty words at this time.
She kept her usual pragmatic style: "Everyone eats well and drinks well. In the future, I will try to open more workshops, provide more jobs for the villagers, earn more money, and let everyone eat rice and white flour every meal, and eat fat pork every now and then!"
Before she finished speaking, the crowd burst into applause!
At first, it was only the people who worked in the herbal medicine workshop. They were influenced by Shuiqing and would applaud in response, and it gradually became a habit.
After they applauded, other villagers followed suit and applauded, and in an instant, there was a burst of enthusiastic applause.
Shuiqing walked down gently and gave the center position to Fan Jin.
Today is the first day of school. Fan Jin must have a lot to say. This is the business!
The applause lasted for a long time. Fan Jin waited until the applause gradually died down before he said gently: "What I want to say is the rules that need to be followed in reading and learning to read.
I don't want tuition fees. Anyone who wants to learn can come, regardless of age. However, once you enter the school, you must study hard. Those who can't sit still, talk to each other, and make trouble, once or twice is fine, but the third time will be completely expelled from the school and will never be taught again. Do you understand clearly?
If you still want to continue learning after hearing it clearly, you can walk a few steps forward to me and I will explain it in detail."
The scene was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Originally, some people were going to send their little kids to the school - they were naughty at home and had to be taken care of, so it would be good to send them to the school to listen in advance.
After hearing Fan Jin's words, they immediately gave up the idea!
The third time will be completely expelled from the school and will never be taught again. With Fan Damu and Zhang Tuzi in front, they can't cut off their children's path to learning to read.
It's better to wait until they are sensible and ask their willingness before sending them there. At home, they must make sure to study hard and study hard!
And the older boys had a faint hope in their hearts.
Fan Xiaoliu raised his hand and asked, "Is it possible for me at this age?"
He really wanted to learn to read!
In the past, he didn't have money to go to the official school or private school, and it didn't matter that everyone was illiterate. But now it's different. The kids younger than him in the village can read and do arithmetic. Of course, the workshop and all kinds of things will give priority to those who can read and do arithmetic. He can't compare with them at all.
Hu Wenhua is the same age as him, but Hu Wenhua can read. After all, being able to read is much better than being illiterate.
Fan Jin looked over and replied calmly, "Okay."
They didn't learn to read for the imperial examination, so of course no age is too late.
Hearing Fan Jin's answer, the other boys and girls in the crowd who were not older or younger came forward without hesitation, their eyes shining.
After a while, there were several circles of people surrounding Fan Jin.
He looked at the group of people with a large age difference, without any surprise, and continued: "The group over twelve years old will be taught at Chen hour, and the group under twelve years old will be taught at Si hour. Each group will have one hour each. Is there any problem?"
