Seeing that the rescue and reception center really took in the elderly and children, some lonely elderly people and orphans from the village were sent to the rescue center one after another.
People in this era take benevolence and filial piety very seriously. If it weren’t for the old man who has no nephews and the child who has no uncles and aunts, the villagers would not send them to the rescue and shelter center. As close relatives, if they don’t care about the elders who have lost their children, Children who have lost their parents will also be poked in the spine by their neighbors, accusing them of being unfilial and unkind.
Half a month after the rescue and reception center opened, there are already fifteen elderly people and ten children living in it. Only two of the ten children are boys, and the others are girls, ranging in age from one month to eight years old. Wait, there were four children who were six years old. Shen Wan asked Manager Yu to teach them how to read and count when he was free. When school started on the first day of September, he sent all the six-year-olds to the academy to become transfer students.
These orphans without parents, without enough food and clothing, never dreamed that they would be able to live in a bright and clean house, wear clean and beautiful clothes, eat both meat and vegetable meals, and have the opportunity to carry School bag to go to school for the day.
In my heart, I was extremely grateful to the county owner who took his children to the shelter center to see them, and I secretly made up my mind to study hard and repay the county owner's kindness in the future.
For those elderly people who were helpless and had lost most of their ability to take care of themselves. When the villagers asked them to send them to some kind of shelter, they just thought that the villagers disliked them and no longer wanted to help them. They wanted to send them out of the village. Waiting to die.
Unexpectedly, this place where they were "waiting to die" was even more beautiful than the palace. They lived in a spacious and bright room, with clean mattresses on the bed, which were soft and warm.
There are also young people who don't dislike them at all, bathing them, washing their hair, and giving them clean clothes to wear.
There are rice, noodles, vegetables, soup and meat in the cafeteria. Those who can walk around on their own can use crutches to eat out of the cafeteria. Those who can't walk around will be brought to their beds.
Those who can eat by themselves will be fed by themselves, and those who cannot be fed by themselves will have someone to help feed them.
The food is also very delicious, even better than the food they ate in restaurants when they were young.
Far from being in a place where they were waiting to die, they were clearly in a paradise on earth where they could live out their old days. The life they lived here was better and more dignified than any other day they had lived before.
They all know that they can live such a good life all because of the kind-hearted County Lord, and they are extremely grateful to the County Lord. Morning and night, they pray to Bodhisattva to bless the County Lord and his family, and everything goes well.
After the final exams are completed at the end of June, the college will begin its summer vacation, which lasts for two months.
In this final exam, there will be rewards for those who get into the top 20. The reward for the first place is not a pig, but an adult donkey. Having a donkey can save several people's labor when the farm is busy. The students heard that The first place reward was a donkey queen, so they all reviewed the knowledge they had learned more carefully, and they were very motivated to take the first place in the exam.
The reward for the top twenty in the final exam is a goose and a bag of rice. The top ten will only receive one tael of silver on the basis of the goose and rice. The top five will receive two taels of silver on the basis of the goose and rice. The top three will be awarded three taels of silver based on the goose and rice, and the first place will be awarded three taels of silver and a donkey based on the goose and rice.
When there was a meeting to hand out rewards after the final exam, many parents went to the school to pick up their children. Because there was a two-month holiday, the children had to take home all the bedding left in the school. Some were afraid that their children would not be able to take it.
Some people think that their children's grades are usually good, but if they get into the top twenty and get rewards, they may not be able to take back so many things, so they come to pick them up.
Wei Ziqiang asked the store manager for a day off today to pick up his younger brother. Although his younger brother did not get the first place in the exam in May, he has always been in the top three. It should not be a big problem to get into the top three in the final exam.
The rewards for the top three are so heavy that my younger brother will definitely not be able to pick them up, so naturally he, as the older brother, will come to pick them up.
There are already two pigs at home, and now everyone in the village who sees them will brag about their achievements in front of them.
