The Song family has a lot of talents given by the imperial examination, even if they are low-ranking officials, they are also officials of the sixth and seventh ranks. This shows that the education is strict and upright. The imperial examination is not so easy. If you can stand out, you are already a talent.

Therefore, all families hope to send their children to study. If there is a good teacher, the brothers of the Song family will try their best to contribute to the clan's learning.

For example, my father Song Zhengtian knew that his master had found a substitute position and was leaving, so he invited a Jinshi master to come back, and ordinary people could not come.

Other children will also take time to come back to teach. These are excellent resources, and other schools may not have such good opportunities.

The last and most important thing is that the Song family passed the imperial examination, and all these reading notes must be kept in the library.

Over the past few generations, these things are extremely precious resources and are also part of the Song family’s foundation as a scholarly family.

Every year, children who are released from other places will bring back a lot of books from other places to send to the clan school. This is for the long-term consideration of the family. The family is the foundation for a son, and the centripetal force of the family even exceeds the loyalty to the court and the emperor.

Many relatives' children are willing to send them to the Song family to study. Even if they fail to pass the imperial examination, they can understand the rules and understand the principles and become useful talents.

However, the Song family school is free for the Song family, but it does have to pay for the children of the outside family. Whether the relatives are not surnamed Song or not, they have to pay for the money. Moreover, the high payment fee is twice as high as the cost of the outside school.

And if you say something first, it is common to be beaten. If you complain, go home and don’t refund the fees. If you join the Song family, treat everyone equally and follow the rules of the Song family, otherwise you will never be hired.

Although it is free for the Song family to go to school, this is for those poor children. Any family has surplus and poor relatives?

The rich will regularly purchase temple fields for the clan, and the clans will also provide pens, ink, paper and inkstones. The clan elders will reward and punish them based on everyone's supply.

Reward children with good learning, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, punish other children for copying books or being punished by boards, etc.

In this way, even if the poor children are willing to work hard, they can still get supplies. Even if they are not surnamed Song, it doesn’t matter, and they are treated equally.

This is also the reason why the Song family is very famous in Beijing. Although the fees are a bit expensive, they have a very good reputation and strict rules. All the children taught are well-known and understand the truth.

The clan school will also send some girls to learn to recognize characters and learn the rules of the Song family. When you go out, you can raise your identity and say a relatively better family. The Song family's signature is still very bright. Otherwise, my grandfather would not marry his daughter.

Zilan went to school for a day and gradually understood the rules of the Song family. Today she had another task, which was to familiarize herself with the rules of searching the house and memorize it.

I would definitely not say such a disappointing thing when I came to visit me before, but there are rules for going to school. The Song family has a long family rules, which strictly restricts all your bad habits and behaviors.

Even if there is a son, you cannot take a concubine, go to a gambling house, or go to brothels. Those who violate the crime will have specific punishment measures, and in serious cases, they will be expelled from the clan.

Exiting the clan is the most severe punishment in this era, and it is a situation where despair cannot be turned over. The importance of the family to a person is self-evident.

Exiting the clan is not to break out of the family, but to take away Song’s surname and cut off all your resources. Everything you have today is given to you by the Song family. The Song family doesn’t want you anymore. All the glory must be brought back and everything you have will be cleared.

Even relatives such as court friends and other relatives will cut off contact with you, and the price is very terrible.

New schoolers, regardless of whether their surname is Song, must search the family rules and memorize them. They will check them at any time and will never allow anyone to tarnish the reputation of the Song family.

Even if your surname is not Song, you must abide by the rules of the Song family when you enter the Song family to attend classes and tarnish the reputation of the Song family. The whole clan will chase and beat you, and be chased by the entire family, and there will be no more place to stand.

After class in the afternoon, Zi Yan ran over with his book bag in his back, "Sister, have you finished packing? We're going home. Let's wait at the door soon."

"Here you come."

Zi Lan responded, Muxiang and Chenxiang were busy packing her things and putting them in a book bag, wrapping the guqin in cloth.

Zi Yan took the Guqin and hugged it in his arms, holding Zi Lan's hand, "Let's go, goodbye sisters, we're back home."

"Let's go, take care of Lan'er slowly."

Song Shishi waved at them at the door.

"See you tomorrow, sister, I will bring you a fragrance."

"Okay, thank you sister."

Song Shishi smiled and nodded.

After getting on the carriage, Ziyan asked, "How can I take you to learn from my sister? Is there anyone bullying you?"

"No one bullies me. I have memorized the grandfather's exam. Brother, have you copied your family rules? I have finished my homework, but I haven't finished my family rules yet."

"I haven't finished copying it, I'll copy it again when I go back. I haven't memorized it yet. I must finish it tomorrow. The Master gave me three days to memorize the wrong one. The grandfather of the clan was going to beat."

Zi Yan counted the time seriously and must recite it before the random check.

"Does my brother have to take a medicinal bath tomorrow?"

"Yes, my grandfather has prepared all the medicinal materials for me. Dad will look at me. Don't worry, I'm used to it."

"Oh, that's good."

Zilan thought about replacing the medicinal materials in the space for his brother to use tonight, so that the effect will be doubled and it will have a good nourishing effect on the body.

When he got home, Yang was already waiting for them.

"I'm back, go get water and wash the children. How can I study today? Do you know new friends?"

Mrs. Yang was busy changing their clothes and pouring water for them.

Zilan was fed a large cup of honey water by Yang. The honey was also taken out of the space and specially brought back from the village to hide his eyes.

"I have learned it well, and the Master praised me for playing the piano well."

Zilan washed his hands and changed into customary clothes before sitting down to speak.

"That's good, but if you want to search the house, your father said that you must copy this first after entering the clan school."

"Well, I haven't finished writing yet, I have to write later. I'll write later while I haven't eaten, otherwise it will be dark."

Zilan was anxious because of her brother. It was not good for her eyes when it was dark. She couldn't finish writing and could go to the space to continue writing, but it would not hinder anything.

"Yes, Brother Yan should write it for a while, otherwise it will be dark and you will be able to write it again and then you will be able to hold your eyes."

Yang said quickly as he was afraid of his hands.

"good."

The brother and sister were arranged to write silently before the desk, and they had to wait for a while before the meal started. They had to wait for their father Song Zhengtian to come back to eat together.

They finished their homework before dinner, and Song Zhengtian also came back. As usual, they asked them about their homework first. They mainly took the exam for Zi Yan, checked the copying rules, and pointed out a few words that they were not good at writing, so they should pay attention to it next time.

While my father was taking the exam for his brother, Zilan pulled Yang into the house, "Mom, my brother is going to take a medicine bath tomorrow. Give me the medicine list and I'll see and replace it with the effect of better."

"Oh, I'll find out where I'm going to put it for you. Your grandfather also told your father that he can also soak this recipe, and it's good to strengthen your body."
