When she arrived at the school, Sang Xiu 'er immediately perked up.
As Sang Youshen's youngest daughter, Sang Xiu 'er was also considered a delicate flower in the school. Sang Carpenter worked for Zhou Qingfeng after New Year's Day, and his family's wealth increased sharply in a short time. All the relatives knew that the Sang family had made a fortune. Sang Xiu 'er was originally just a skinny village girl with yellow hair. After a few months of eating in Fu Shun City, her young body immediately glowed with youthful vigor.
Sang Xiu 'er and her sister went to the school in the west of the city together for the most basic literacy class. She was smarter than her sister and learned faster. In three months, she had completed the Hanyu Pinyin, 500 basic Chinese characters, simple arithmetic, and basic knowledge of nature. Now, she had to go to the intermediate advanced class in the morning and teach the students in the primary literacy class as a substitute teacher in the afternoon.
When she entered the classroom, the headmaster, Chen Tiankai, smiled at Sang Xiu 'er and greeted her warmly. Sang Xiu 'er lowered her head and looked for a seat with a blush. She didn't dare to look up and only glanced in the other direction of the classroom. She was relieved to see that there was an empty seat.
The empty seat belonged to a girl called Chun Ni. She was the scariest existence in the entire academy. Zhou Qingfeng cared about the school's teaching and would come to teach from time to time. Although Chun Ni didn't like him every time, he still praised her as a top student many times. Since then, the name "top student" had completely replaced Chun Ni's name and was widely spread.
Students who could go to the intermediate advanced class were all good students. But everyone here had to bow down in front of Chun Ni because the twelve-year-old girl only took two weeks to finish three months' worth of courses for others and was even better at it. She was so good that she could come to teach the advanced class when Chen Tiankai was busy.
As luck would have it, Chun Ni's words were harsh and sharp, always putting people on the spot.
"Our top student didn't come today?" Sang Xiu 'er lowered her head and asked her deskmate.
"She's not with us anymore." Her deskmate replied in a low voice, "Yesterday, Zhou Shao opened a children's class and got sixty or seventy kids to come to the class. The top student was selected to be the teacher of the children's class. It's a formal job and she gets three taels of silver a month. "
"What? How can she get three taels a month? "Sang Xiu 'er suddenly felt jealous. Her father used to earn five taels of silver a month, and it was only after he settled a big project that he earned ten taels of silver. Her eldest brother was in his twenties and had obtained a professional title in carpentry. He only earned three taels of silver a month. Chun Ni had won three taels of silver at the age of twelve, and she was still a girl. Everyone who heard this felt a little sour in their hearts.
Hmm … A light cough came from the podium, and Chen Tiankai said with a smile, "Xiu Er, be quiet, we're starting class."
Sang Xiu 'er lowered her head when she heard Chen Tiankai's voice. Her deskmate nudged her with her elbow, winked at her, and asked in a low voice, "When is our Headmaster Chen going to your house to propose? Can't you wait any longer? "
Sang Xiu 'er quickly shook her head, signaling her deskmate not to talk nonsense. Chen Tiankai looked down from the podium, and his smile was especially bright. He had watched Sang Xiu 'er transform from a bumpkin village girl into a modern female student. When he first met her, the girl and her sister were both sloppy. Their clothes were full of patches, their skin was chapped, their hair was dirty, and their heads were covered with lice.
But Zhou Qingfeng really attached importance to education. He was willing to invest money in it, and compulsory education for both men and women. After Sang Xiu 'er entered school, she was given two new sets of clothes. She ate extra meals at school for lunch and dinner, and the supply of meat and eggs was guaranteed. In three or four months, the girls and boys in the school grew up one by one like balloons.
The withered haired village girl had changed a lot. She had a bit of the delicateness of a pretty daughter from a humble family, but she still retained the simplicity of a peasant girl. There were so many female students in the school, but Chen Tiankai thought Sang Xiu 'er was the most beautiful and lovely one. Chun Ni was also beautiful, or even prettier. But she was an evildoer, and she was around Xu Bing, so Chen Tiankai did not dare to have any thoughts about her.
Girls who had received a modern education were completely different from girls from old-fashioned families. They were more lively, healthy, and bold. Even their smiles were sweeter, and their speech was more organized and touching.
In contrast, Chen Tiankai felt that although his wife and concubine were clever, they were too stiff and uninteresting, like two silly puppets. Recently, he had been particularly close to Sang Xiu 'er. Some of his intentions were already clear, and there was only a layer of window paper missing. The students in the school could feel that rumors had begun to brew.
The curriculum of the Intermediate Advanced Class was from the fourth to the sixth grade of primary school. It was much more difficult than the primary literacy class. Chen Tiankai could barely teach the Chinese and Nature courses. Even if he did not understand them, he could still follow the books. But mathematics was beyond his ability. The abstract knowledge such as equations was very complicated, which made him complain incessantly.
After two language classes, it was math class. Previously, this course could not be taken. The books had been printed and distributed, but everyone could only learn by themselves. After Zhou Qingfeng came back, he said that he would teach personally. He was originally scheduled to come today, so Chen Tiankai, the principal, had to sit in front of the students' desks and prepare for class.
However, when the bell rang, the sound of footsteps approaching the classroom was not that of Zhou Qingfeng's. Instead, it was sonorous and powerful, with a bright rhythm. The students stood up solemnly, ready to welcome the appearance of their boss. But what they saw was a much thinner but valiant Xu Bing.
Ah … Seeing Xu Bing, who always had her head up and chest out, with a smile on her face, there was a low cry in the classroom. Everyone was obviously quite surprised.
Xu Bing and Zhou Qingfeng had not returned after escorting the caravan to Shenyang, but she constantly transferred manpower and material resources from the west of the city, which caused many internal staff to complain. Everyone in the organization felt that this woman was bold, fierce, and even fierce. Now that she appeared again, everyone in the classroom was stunned.
"Zhou Qingfeng can't come because he has something to do. I just came back and was supposed to rest for a day. But I feel that time is precious, and I can't waste it. Plus, I'm in a good mood today, so I'm here to substitute. "Xu Bing raised her neck and looked down at everyone." Why? Not happy to see me? "
Xu Bing lightly patted the podium, and her voice seemed to have a magical power. Everyone in the classroom unconsciously became highly focused, and their thoughts were in sync with her. Chen Tiankai, who was below the podium, was more knowledgeable. He immediately stuttered and asked, "Sister Xu, you've cultivated?"
"Hehehe …" Xu Bing chuckled a few times. Her voice was pleasant, and it seemed that she was really in a good mood. "That's right, I can be considered a cultivator now. Now that I'm at Level 1, I can be considered to have seen the door."
Ah … The dozens of students in the classroom, including Chen Tiankai, gasped — there were few cultivators, and even fewer female cultivators. When they came into contact with Xu Bing before, they all thought that she was just a woman who depended on Zhou Qingfeng to exist. At most, she had a bad temper and was not very likeable. But now that she had become a cultivator, things were different.
Cultivators had extraordinary power, and their status was not ordinary. From now on, no matter how outrageous Xu Bing's words and deeds were, no one would dare to look down on her. Last night, Zhou Qingfeng was still talking about 'equality between men and women'. Today, Xu Bing stood up and spoke for herself. With a living example in front of them, they had no choice but to change their minds.
Sang Xiu 'er couldn't help but ask, "Sister Xu, how did you become a cultivator?"
Speaking of this topic, Xu Bing closed her eyes slightly and recalled. In the past month or so, she had taken root in the countryside, intending to create a model. But the resistance and difficulties were so great that it was almost unbearable.
In the beginning, Zhou Qingfeng's power was still there, and Xu Bing could still mobilize some manpower and strength. But soon, all kinds of stubborn and conservative rural forces began to fight back, either overtly or covertly. In the ignorant rural society, there were too many dark, outdated rules and bad habits. If it was an ordinary person, facing the siege of tigers, leopards, jackals, and wolves, they could only retreat. Xu Bing relied on the manpower and material resources left by Zhou Qingfeng to fight resolutely.
The hardships and dangers were really indescribable. Xu Bing had thousands of words in her heart, but when she opened her mouth, her words were quite formulaic. "I relied on the masses, relying on uncompromising, fighting hard, and persisting in rescuing women who suffered. In the end, I won the support of the masses. When enough people approve of me, I will naturally obtain magical powers. "
The students didn't understand, but looking at Xu Bing's solemn face, they seemed to see how she was tenacious and indomitable, cutting through thorns and thorns, and facing the barbaric evil forces. Whether she liked it or not, this policewoman obviously had her own ideas and strong ability to take action. If she didn't have the courage, it was impossible for her to arrest Zhou Qingfeng alone with a gun.
Sang Xiuer thought that girls like Chun Ni were maverick enough, desperate to go against the current society's views and requirements for women. But compared with the confidence, courage, and indomitable spirit of Sister Xu in front of her, her worldview was instantly shattered.
"Sister Xu, I heard that the spiritual power of a cultivator is born of the five elements. Which one is yours?" Sang Xiuer asked.
"I don't belong to any of the five elements." Xu Bing smiled and said, "The attribute of my true essence is' sound '. I named it' Revolutionary Thunder '." When she spoke, her voice was full of pride, and her will spread outward through her voice. Hearing her voice, people were easily influenced by her. For this reason, she smiled and said, "I think my spiritual power is particularly suitable to be a teacher."
The students in the classroom had long been attracted by Xu Bing's words, and they didn't realize that they had been influenced by Xu Bing's voice from the beginning. As long as their spiritual power was not strong enough, they would be subconsciously influenced by her thoughts.
"Well, let's start the class. I heard that you have a lot of difficulties in learning mathematics, and I think I can help you. "Xu Bing opened the courseware handouts prepared by Zhou Qingfeng and began to teach fourth-grade mathematics. The most important thing now was to immediately cultivate a group of qualified teachers, so that the students who had mastered the knowledge could teach more students.
At present, Zhou Qingfeng only intended to promote simplified primary school knowledge. When there were enough primary school students, he would select the outstanding ones to carry out a complete primary education, and then develop in the direction of middle school. But there were too many illiterates nowadays, and it would be lucky if this task could be completed within five years.
Xu Bing's voice was natural and calm, and her every word was clear and soothing. The students listened attentively, and occasionally paused, but all of them fell into deep thought. The time of the two classes quickly ended, and from the situation after the class, it seemed that the students who had a blank piece of paper accepted it better. On the contrary, Chen Tiankai was older, and his thoughts were already formed, so the effect was much worse.
"For the next month, I will be your mathematics teacher, and I hope that you can grasp enough mathematics knowledge as soon as possible. Because I am also very busy, the class may be interrupted at any time. "Xu Bing said the class was over, and closed the handouts and left the classroom. The students in the classroom just got rid of the influence of her voice, and each of them seemed to have just woken up from a dream.
Coming out of the school, Xu Bing walked back to the administrative department of Lin's Inn with her head held high. On the way, she saw Zhou Qingfeng riding 'Dog Meat' back. The moment the two saw each other, there was a smile on the corner of their mouths, and they shook hands like comrades who hadn't seen each other for a long time. When moving in the darkness and mud, people always hoped to get the support and help of their companions.
"Xu Bing, you … awakened true essence?"
"Yes!"
"Your spiritual power is also very good."
"Yes!"
