Li Qinzai assigned him a separate courtyard and a maid to attend to his daily life.
The maids would bring him daily meals on time, so he didn't have to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation. Not only that, Li Qinzai actually said that in addition to the imperial salary, he would also be given a so-called "bonus" of one hundred cents per month in the name of the school.
Di Renjie was flattered and declined several times, but Li Qinzai made a strong decision.
With the current price of goods in the Tang Dynasty, one hundred coins was really not a small number, and Di Renjie's doubts became more and more serious.
A young hero with a great reputation and a holy family, inexplicably knew that he was an unknown little official, and not only transferred him to his side, but also took such good care of him.
Di Renjie has handled so many cases, but this one that happened to him has become an unsolved unsolved case.
Li Qinzai didn't know that his thoughts were so complicated. When he asked Baiqisi to find someone, he just mentioned it casually. After all, he didn't know many celebrities in this era in his previous life, and even fewer celebrities had not yet made their fortune.
As for taking care of daily life, giving bonuses and so on...
Since you have decided to treat someone as an animal, you must first feed the animal.
Di Renjie officially took office.
The new school is almost completed, and the last experimental building is almost completed. The craftsmen are doing the final work, applying varnish to the pillars and eaves of the house.
After Di Renjie stayed in the Li family courtyard for a few days, he gradually understood Li Qinzai's character.
The future school principal was basically a hands-off shopkeeper who didn't care about anything. He was often absent from work even in his teaching position.
So Di Renjie finally knew why the emperor transferred him to the school.
To put it crudely, he is here to wipe Li Qinzai's butt. If nothing else happens, he will be responsible for all the daily administrative work in the school. The management of students, the food, clothing, housing and transportation of teachers and students, the maintenance of order, etc.
It's his job.
Di Renjie has a very pragmatic character. After understanding his position, he immediately chatted several times with Li Sujie and other students. He also visited the construction site of the new school every day and kept writing and drawing without knowing what he was planning.
Li Qinzai lives in the backyard and mostly stays in the courtyard except for classes. Cui Jie is not in Zhuangzi. He rarely goes out. They live under the same roof. Di Renjie has hardly seen him a few times in the past few days since he lived in another courtyard.
On the fourth day of his stay in the villa, Li Qinzai had probably been staying in the backyard for a long time. He was stretching and planning to go to the village to have some vulgar gossip with the villagers. When he walked to the front yard, he finally met Di Renjie unexpectedly.
.
"Brother Huaiying, it's been a long time." Li Qinzai smiled and held his hands.
Di Renjie's face twitched, "It's been a long time". We live in the same courtyard, but we haven't seen each other for several days. It's really been a long time.
"I'm going to pay homage to County Uncle Li." Di Renjie saluted politely.
"From now on, you and I are colleagues. There is no need to be so indifferent. We are brothers. My first name is 'Jingchu'." Li Qinzai was very approachable.
Li Qinzai gave him the color, but Di Renjie did not dare to open a dyeing room. In this era of strict class concepts, Di Renjie was just a seventh-grade doctor of mathematics, and his status was incomparable to Li Qinzai's.
"I don't dare, Uncle Li. I have visited the students and the construction site of the new school these days. I want to discuss many matters with Uncle Li." Di Renjie said, neither humble nor overbearing.
"Ah, you can do whatever you want, I agree. You don't have to tell me." Li Qinzai hurriedly refused.
Di Renjie said seriously: "No, County Uncle Li is the head of the school, and subordinate officials must not violate the rules. Regarding school matters, subordinate officials must ask for appropriate advice."
Li Qinzai sighed. This guy is not a newbie. He has been a legal officer in the Bingzhou Governor's Mansion for several years. It stands to reason that he understands the rules of the officialdom. Why does he still look like a nerd?
"What's there to discuss? After the school is built, all the students can move in, attend classes during the day, and sleep at night. It's that simple, perfect!"
Di Renjie's cheeks twitched: "It's not perfect! After taking office, County Uncle Li found that the students and the school were in a complete mess. There were no rules and regulations. County Uncle Li taught as he pleased, and the students went about their lives in a haphazard manner. This is not what a school is like.
"
Li Qinzai explained patiently: "We are a third-rate pheasant school here. It is different from the first-rate schools like the Imperial College. You can just get used to it."
Di Renjie was so angry that the headmaster of the school was actually a salty fish, and he was so salty that he was confident. How did he acquire this kind of temperament and a wealth of knowledge? It's hard to understand.
Seeing Di Renjie's unkind look, Li Qinzai was also worried that the animals had escaped, so he patted him on the shoulder and said: "Brother Huaiying, if you have any ideas, you might as well write me a note and let's discuss it. In short, the administration of the school will be left to me in the future.
I’ll give it to you, I’ll just teach.”
Di Renjie was smoothed down, and then he calmed down his anger, bowed and left.
Li Qinzai stared at his back with a somewhat uneasy expression. This person's charm looked a bit similar to Liu Rengui's. Could it be that he was also Qingliu? That would be disgusting.
…………
The wedding day was getting closer and closer, so Li Ji sent someone to send auspicious clothes from Chang'an City, so that Li Qinzai could try them on as soon as possible and change them if they didn't fit.
In the front yard, Li Qinzai was wearing a bright red groom's uniform, standing in the middle of the yard stretching his arms, with a bright smile on his face.
The students heard the news, gathered around Li Qinzai and admired him, showering him with compliments like a rainbow, which made Li Qinzai ecstasy.
Qiao'er stood in front of Li Qinzai, stretched out two pink fingers to twist the material of Jifu, and asked curiously: "Why is Dad wearing red?"
Li Qinzai knelt down and said with a smile: "Because dad is getting married."
Qiao'er blinked: "Are you with your aunt?"
"Yes, does Qiao'er like Auntie?"
Qiao'er thought for a while, puffed up her chest like an adult, and said in an authoritative tone: "Auntie is not a bad person, she treats me well."
Li Qinzai smiled, intending to take this opportunity to change Qiao'er's name to mother, but in the end he couldn't bear to force him. Some knots in his heart could not be bullied just because he was young, and he could only untie them as he grew older.
Qiao'er stared at his Jifu and suddenly asked: "Will dad live with his aunt from now on?"
Li Qinzai's heart tightened and he looked into his eyes.
Qiao'er's eyes were as innocent and flawless as ever, and her clear eyes had the purest halo in the world.
Li Qinzai said seriously: "I'm not living with my aunt, but you, me, and my aunt. The three of us live together. We can't live without anyone."
Qiao'er smiled and nodded vigorously: "Yes! In the future, my father and aunt will give birth to younger brothers and sisters for Qiao'er. Our family will be four or five people, living together."
"Yes, you will be the elder brother from now on. You should act like an elder brother and play with your younger brothers and sisters. Teach them how to play marbles and memorize the Thousand-Character Classic of Hundred Family Surnames."
Li Qinzai stood up, suddenly took off his auspicious clothes, handed it to the servant, and said: "Send it back to Chang'an and tell grandpa that it fits very well and there is no need to change it. I will return to Chang'an before the wedding."
The moment he took off his auspicious clothes, Li Qinzai glanced at Qiao'er's eyes and found a flash of relief in his eyes.
Li Qinzai blinked, thinking it was his illusion. When he looked again, Qiao'er's eyes were still as confused and flawless as usual.
