Chapter 1,171: Imperial College life, return home to rest
Life in the Imperial College was far from what Xuezheng Yan Tu said.
There are only upper, middle, and lower third-class students in Shiguozijian, and there is no distinction between students from Shigongjian, students from Yinjian, and students from regular prison.
It's all nonsense!
There is a natural gap between Gongjiansheng, Yinjiansheng and Lijiansheng. People can recognize them at a glance when walking on the road.
For example, for Yin Jiansheng, the elders in the family must be officials in the court, and there are even some first- and second-rank court officials.
If the second or even third generation of a prominent family is dedicated to studying, they will be the favorites of the Imperial College teachers.
If they don't want to study and instead focus on being a fool, they will become a black sheep in the eyes of the teacher and cannot be beaten or scolded.
Although these second and third generations usually dress in scholarly gowns, the jade pendants hanging around their waists, the paper fans held in their hands, and the thumb rings on their fingers all prove the specialness of their identities.
Another example is the prison students. These people were sent in after their families donated money, food, and silk. They spent a lot of money to get here.
When these people entered the Imperial College, they must have wanted to become officials as soon as possible and then get back the money they spent in the Imperial College.
However, they themselves did not have the ability to take the imperial examination.
In desperation, the probation students had no choice but to resort to crooked tricks.
According to regulations, if a regular student wants to work as an official, he must first obtain a diploma from the Imperial College and then pass the examination by the Ministry of Civil Affairs before he can obtain the qualifications to be an official.
The person responsible for the assessment will become the target of the regular students to please, flatter and bribe.
Most of these probation students have one thing in common: they are long-sleeved and good at dancing, and they have a strong philistine vibe.
Su Mingzhe took the key and on the way to the dormitory, he met several prison students who raised their hands to him as a sign of goodwill.
To be honest, no one knew him. The reason why these regular supervisors saluted Su Mingzhe was simply because they saw that Su Mingzhe was dressed in luxury and looked like a supervising supervisor. In order not to offend anyone, they took the initiative to salute without knowing him.
The next day.
Su Mingzhe got up, washed up, went to the dining room to have breakfast, and then followed the flow of people to the classroom to study.
There are about fifty people working in the entire Imperial College, including eight Ph.D.s who regularly teach, and twenty-four teaching assistants. There are also teachers from other colleges and foreign exchanges, a total of about fifty people.
The main lecturer in the class is a Ph.D.
Each PhD has a fixed classroom lecture.
Each classroom is divided into fifteen small rooms, and there are more than one hundred small classrooms in the entire Imperial College.
In addition to doctoral lectures, teaching assistants will also give lectures.
Students attend classes according to subjects.
In the Imperial College, students basically have classes in the morning and homework in the afternoon.
General homework content, in addition to the homework assigned by the teacher, there are also mandatory assignments, such as 600 words of regular script every day.
In addition to the teaching of the Four Books and Five Classics, the Imperial College also has courses on the Six Arts of a Gentleman such as etiquette, music, archery, charioteering, calligraphy, and mathematics.
Students need to register themselves to participate.
Sometimes, when well-known scholars from other universities in Daqing come to the Imperial College to meet their friends through literature, the teachers from the Imperial College will teach everyone in the square and other places using the method of debating scriptures.
It can be said that the academic atmosphere is particularly strong.
In just nine days, Su Mingzhe had another taste of college life, and he also met many classmates and expanded his circle of friends.
In the blink of an eye, nine days passed.
One day and one day off.
After experiencing student life for nine days, Su Mingzhe was looking forward to a day off.
After school was over at noon that day, Su Mingzhe went back to his residence to pack his luggage and walked towards the outside of the Imperial College.
"Second Master, this, this!"
Li Gui and a few boys, who were accompanying him, saw Su Mingzhe walking out of the gate archway and quickly waved their hands to say hello.
Su Mingzhe threw his luggage over and asked with a smile:
"How long have you been here?"
Mingyan grabbed it with a smile
Answered:
"Second Master, I know that the Imperial College is on holiday today, so we came right after breakfast!"
It's almost noon now, and these people have been waiting for a long time.
Su Mingzhe smiled and said no more.
However, Mingyan said with a smile:
"Second Master, I have already inquired about it. The Imperial Academy allows you to bring study boys in. When school starts the day after tomorrow, let me go in with you. I can also help you with your laundry and housework."
"No!"
As soon as Su Mingzhe heard the word "book boy", he couldn't help but feel disgust in the corners of his eyes and the urge to beat someone up.
The Imperial College does allow students to bring their bookboys and servants into the Imperial Academy.
However, the original intention of the Imperial College to allow these book boys to help students deal with chores and prevent students from being distracted by things other than studying.
When Su Mingzhe extended his consciousness and wanted to watch the operation of the entire Imperial College, he discovered that most of the time, these book boys would do some indescribable things.
That scene almost disgusted Su Mingzhe to death.
Also because he was disgusted by the book boys in the Imperial College, Su Mingzhe began to look at Ming Yan and the four boys with a trace of disgust.
Therefore, Su Mingzhe would rather do everything by himself than bring the servant in.
Returning to Rongguo Mansion, I met Jia Zhengxiu Mu.
Su Mingzhe first went to Rongxi Hall to greet Jia Zheng, reported on his study situation, and then went to greet his mother.
When Mrs. Wang saw her son, whom she had not seen for several days, she was so distressed that she wiped away tears.
Su Mingzhe comforted her for a while, and when her mother stopped crying, he was about to go to Jia Mu's place in the backyard, but unexpectedly Jin Chuan and Yu Chuan followed him out quietly.
When Mrs. Wang first married into Rongguo Mansion, she had two nannies, eight companions, and eight maids, that is, eighteen people to take care of her.
Two of the nuns are old and have been sent out long ago.
Among the eight companions, one, Aunt Li, is currently serving Jia Baoyu, one is serving Jia Yuanchun, and the other three are useless. They were sent out early to take care of the outside business, leaving only Zhou Rui's family. The three of them, the Wu Xing family and the Zheng Hua family are more important.
Unfortunately, some time ago, these three families were all beheaded by the governor of Chang'an.
Among the eight maids, Mrs. Wang rewarded one to Jia Baoyu (Autumn Pattern) and one to her daughter Jia Yuanchun (Baoqin).
Nowadays, there are only six maids left to serve Mrs. Wang, namely sisters Jinchuai Yuchuai, sisters Caiyun Caixia, and sisters Xiuluan Xiufeng.
To be honest, this situation is not consistent with Mrs. Wang's status at all.
However, Mrs. Wang doesn't care about it. She doesn't do anything every day. She just eats fast and chants Buddha's name. There is no feeling of shortage of manpower.
Among these six maids, the Jin Chuan Yu Chuan sisters were selected by Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang, saying that when Su Mingzhe grew up and got married, they would be allowed to become aunts.
It was precisely because of the two masters' promises that sisters Jin Chuai and Yu Chuai had the courage to come and talk to Su Mingzhe.
When the three of them arrived at a quiet place, Jin Chuan boldly challenged the man:
"Second Master, do you want to eat rouge?"
This girl is so brave!
Su Mingzhe looked at Jin Chuan's red and thin lips. He couldn't hold back and went forward to give her a kiss:
"Yes, of course I do!"
After kissing my sister, naturally I can't let her go.
Su Mingzhe opened his consciousness and didn't notice anyone passing by. He simply held each other in his arms, smelled the fragrance, and ate rouge for a while.
Jin Chuan had been in love for a long time, and after being intimate with the man for a while, his eyes were as thick as silk, and his love was so strong that it was hard to let him go.
On the other hand, Yuchai, although her whole body was heated up by the man's teasing, her eyes were still clear. It was obvious that she was just reacting naturally, and her mind was still as calm as water.
After playing with the two sisters for a while, Su Mingzhe came to the backyard to meet Jia Mu.
Although Jia Mu misses her sweet grandson whom she hasn’t seen for a few days,
However, he pulled Su Mingzhe beside him with a smile, and after confirming that Su Mingzhe was not emaciated, but rather "stronger", he happily asked the maids to pass the dishes quickly.
As the granddaughter-in-law, Li Wan worked as a cook.
After everyone had dinner, Su Mingzhe endured his lovesickness and chatted with Jia Mu and several sisters for a while.
When Jia's mother said that she was sleepy and wanted to take a nap, Su Mingzhe followed Sister Lin to the Bisha Cupboard and talked about the pain of missing her for many days.
