Amid the ridicule, the student straightened his back and helped his mother leave without showing any anger, as if he had blocked out everything around him.
"If you can be a middle school student, how about the princess hire you as a teacher of Bai Academy?" Bai Ling walked up and stood in front of the student with a smile, "But being a teacher of Bai Academy is not easy.
In addition to enlightening the children, you also have to take them to practical classes, are you confident that you are competent?"
"Who are you?" The student didn't recognize Bai Ling and couldn't help but wonder.
"It's Princess Jixiang!" someone in the crowd shouted.
"The glory of our Baifu County, and a great philanthropist, actually invites a student who has not even passed the boyhood examination to be a teacher?"
"Princess Jixiang won't tell lies. If she said this, it must be because the student is outstanding."
…
For a time, the crowd was talking a lot, and some were envious and jealous of the students.
But more people are more interested in the rumored Princess Jixiang. After all, many people have never seen Bai Ling.
Rumor has it that this princess was born in a farm family, but was very good at making money and took on the burden of the family. She was the protector of the Duan family, the richest man in Zixiao City.
And the good reputation of the Bai family falls more on Bai Ling, otherwise why would the emperor grant her the title of princess?
What's more important is Bai Ling's medical skills, which are said to be miraculous, and he is like a god who can bring the dead back to life.
"This is not the place to talk. If you two don't mind, you can stay at Bai's house temporarily."
Bai Ling stepped forward with a smile, and while he was helping the woman to kneel down to thank her, he checked her pulse.
After confirming the woman's condition, Bai Ling said loudly: "Everyone, this woman is just weak and contracted typhoid fever. Her cough hurt her throat. She is not tuberculosis. And tuberculosis is not contagious. If you are worried, you can go to the hospital.
Go to the hospital for a consultation and drink two pairs of medicines to prevent typhoid fever and you will be fine."
"Princess Jixiang said it wasn't tuberculosis, so it definitely isn't. Fortunately, it was just a false alarm."
"If Princess Jixiang hadn't said it, I wouldn't have known that tuberculosis is not all contagious. It seems that Princess Jixiang's medical skills are indeed extraordinary."
"The princess's medical skills are so good. It would be great if we opened more medical clinics. The princess's apprentices should also be able to treat patients well."
There was another wave of chatter in the crowd, and the Bai Ling sisters had already left with their students and their son.
When Bai Wei heard the first half of Bai Ling's words, she couldn't help but frown, but after hearing the second half, she hesitated.
Although Bai Wei had only heard that tuberculosis could be transmitted to people, Bai Ling said that it should be fine if nothing happened, and she still believed in Bai Ling's medical skills.
"Thank you, Princess, for your help. Now that the cause of my mother's illness has been found out, I will take her to the hospital for treatment and find an inn to stay at later." After the student left the crowd, he cupped his hands to Bai Ling and thanked Bai Ling.
.
"What I just said is true. As long as you can pass the Tongsheng examination, I will hire you as a master. Tongsheng's knowledge is enough to enlighten the children. Besides, the academy is mainly for skills training, not for those who want to get fame.
If your child studies there for a long time, you don’t have to feel any pressure." Bai Ling said.
"The princess is really willing to hire me?" The student's eyes brightened.
"Yeah. The wife I want, in addition to being able to read and write, must also be able to do farm work. I can't separate grains." Bai Ling nodded.
Seeing the students looking at him in surprise, Bai Ling explained: "There is an experimental field next to the college. The master and the students are responsible for taking care of it, which is what I call the skills class. If you encounter problems, you can discuss them together and write about Nongsang in the future.
The income from the output is also used to reward the master and students."
"I see, the princess attaches so much importance to farming, no wonder she can grow winter wheat. My dear Wang Cheng, if you are lucky enough to pass the Tongsheng examination, you are willing to teach in the academy." Wang Cheng bowed to Bai Ling.
"Your mother's health is not good. Come with me to my house to rest first. After diagnosing her pulse again, I can prescribe her a prescription." Bai Ling said as he walked.
In order to take into account the woman's physical condition, Bai Ling walked very slowly.
Bai Wei didn't know anything about the academy, so naturally she couldn't get in the conversation, and she didn't think there was anything special about Bai's Academy.
How can any farmer not know how to farm?
So far, only children from Nanshan Village are studying there, and no one from other villages has been sent here.
Of course, this village does not practice Buddhism, and studying in other villages costs money, which is one of the reasons why no one comes.
Wang became concerned about his mother's health, and finally lived in the guest house of the Bai family to wait for the exam with peace of mind.
After Wang Cheng moved into Bai's house, many students who were preparing to take the Tongsheng Examination came to Bai's house to meet him, hoping to become teachers in the academy.
Especially for some students who know that they cannot enter the official career, if they can become a teacher after passing the Tongsheng examination, they will save a lot of money to become a scholar.
Moreover, the Bai family is well-known for being a philanthropic family, so being able to teach at Bai's College is already the best choice.
"Second sister, these people are obviously here because our family has money, why do you still want to see them?" Bai Wei accompanied the party and slumped in the chair tiredly.
Bai Ling picked up the tea cup and drank a few sips. His throat felt like it was on fire. It was really uncomfortable to talk too much.
"It's better to offend a gentleman than a villain. Most of the people who came to visit today have their own motives. If we stay behind closed doors, there will be rumors outside. My brother is about to end, so he has to worry about his reputation." Bai Ling explained.
"But if the second sister doesn't leave anyone behind, you won't be afraid of them spreading rumors?" Bai Wei was puzzled.
"Of course there will be small talk, but Bai's academy is indeed small and does not need so many masters. People with sense will not slander our family because of this. The Bai family is not rich, and it is impossible to be liked by everyone in the world. As long as you can stand it, it will be done." Bai Ling explained calmly.
No matter which step Bai Xiaoshan gets in this exam, he will become a dazzling pearl.
The rise of the Bai family is already foreseeable.
Bai Ling's attitude was clear. The student who originally regretted not going to the Bai family to fight for the opportunity to be a teacher stopped visiting the Bai family for a few days.
In order not to put pressure on Bai Xiaoshan and Liu Xusheng, the family members tried their best to behave as normal as possible.
The provincial examination finally came, and the Bai family started preparing the things they needed for the examination very early in the morning, and also prepared one for Wang Cheng.
After sending the three of them to the examination room, seeing them being searched by the government officials and disappearing through the gate of the academy, Mrs. Bai Liu and Mrs. Liu Chen became weak.
"My palms are sweaty. I didn't dare to say anything just now because I was afraid that the children would be nervous. I have been looking forward to this day for so many years. This is something I didn't even dare to think about last year." Mrs. Liu Chen said, holding on to the shaft of the car.
"My second sister-in-law and I are almost the same, but I used to hope that Xiao Shan could grow up safely, and then I thought it would be good if he could read and write. But who would have thought that this kid would start to end up at such a young age after trying his best." Bai Liu The Liu-Chen family is somewhat more stable than the Liu-Chen family.
Because I had never expected such a day before, I was even more surprised.
"We have to take exams all day today. Let's not stay here. Let's go to the teahouse to listen to readings and then come back to pick them up in the afternoon." Seeing this, Bai Ling persuaded them.
Ancient fame and honors were more difficult to take than the modern college entrance examination, so it’s no wonder that Bai Liu and the others were nervous.
Even Bai Ling, who actually reached the outside of the examination room, was also affected by the atmosphere.
I just hope that Bai Xiaoshan and the others' will is strong enough so that it doesn't affect their performance.
"Let's go, it's more impatient to stay here. The provincial examination lasts for three days, and after that there will be the government examination and the college examination. It's not too late for you to be in a hurry by then." Liu Zhenyou waved his hand and took the lead in getting on the carriage, but he was calm. (
