Chapter 274 Children’s thoughts are simple
"Also, Pingping and the others can study here and avoid any trouble or danger?"
"The surrounding villages have been eyeing Pingping, and they all want to marry their daughters to him."
If it weren't for the previous incidents and the protection of Dr. Deng and Mr. Cheng, who knows how big the trouble would have been.
After listening to his two sons' analysis, Father Mu was still worried. "That's a wealthy family. If they want our lives, they want our lives. It's different from here."
Zhu was also very worried about this. "What if something happens to the children?"
Boss Mu didn't say anything, looking like he was listening to his family.
He is not very smart, and apart from knowing how to farm, he is also a bit strong, so it is better for him to listen to his family on such important matters.
Mu Lao Er and Mu Lao San could understand the concerns of the two elders, and they were also worried.
However, this is an important opportunity for several children.
If we lose this opportunity, it will probably have a great impact on the children.
"Dad, Mom, I'm not afraid of you getting angry. If we stay here, will Pingping and the others be safe?"
"Didn't Prince Zheng say he would protect Pingping and the others? As long as Pingping and the others don't make any serious mistakes, they'll be safe in the Imperial College. Besides, they can hone themselves and understand how big the world outside is."
Father Mu and Madam Zhu looked at Mu Pingping and the other children and asked, "Would you consider it?"
Mu Laoer spoke first, "Pingping, don't think too much."
"What you need to think about is the future."
"Studying at the Imperial College has its own setbacks and hassles, but the benefits you gain are immense."
He said with emotion, "During the time I've been doing business in town, I've come to realize how beneficial it is to interact with people more and go out more often."
Mu Pingping and his children couldn't make up their minds. It seemed that what their father/second uncle/second uncle said made sense.
"I think this," Mu Laosan clapped his hands lightly and suggested, "Pingping, you should think about it carefully first, ask Doctor Deng and Mr. Cheng more questions, and then make a decision."
"If, in the end, you really don't want to go to the Imperial College, we won't force you."
Mu Pingping and the other children decided to think about it first and then decide whether to go to the Imperial College.
Let’s leave it at that for now, and the family starts to eat.
But Mu Baby was full. She patted her round belly and said, "Grandma, I'm going to play on the kang for a while."
Zhu carried her to the kang and said, "Play by yourself."
"Baby, what do you think of the Imperial College?" Mu Niuniu suddenly asked.
Baby Mu raised his little head to look at him and said seriously, "It's fine."
"Uncle said that there are many good people in the Imperial College, and the little brother will protect you."
"As long as you guys don't act naughty and study hard, nothing will happen to you."
Mu Niuniu asked again, "There are many children from wealthy families in the Imperial College. They will look down on us and bully us."
Mu Baobao scratched his head and said, "Second brother, won't anyone in the village bully you?"
The wooden ox was speechless.
Mu Baobao was puzzled. "In the village, there are always people who bully you. So it's normal for people to bully you outside."
"Besides, won't you bully me back?"
"You have the support of my brother, uncle and master."
She didn't understand. It was such a simple matter, why did grandma and the others make it so complicated?
Everyone present fell silent.
The elders sighed in their hearts, wondering how they would tell the baby that he couldn't always rely on Prince Zheng and the others.
Mu Pingping and the other children looked at each other again and seemed to understand something.
……
The next day.
It was a nice sunny day and not as cold as before.
Therefore, everyone in the village who was at home came out for a walk, and many of them went to the mountains to see if they could pick anything.
If you're lucky enough to catch a small animal, that would be great.
"The weather is finally getting warmer. If it gets any colder, we won't be able to farm."
"My husband wanted to dig the ground yesterday, but it was too hard to dig."
"Hey, hey, hey, look who that is? There's a group of people carrying something over here."
The villagers who were chatting only then noticed that a dozen strangers were coming from a distance.
Because of the disaster victims, the villagers are particularly concerned about strangers.
"Go tell the village chief that there are strangers in the village."
"Everyone, take your sticks and other things, in case someone comes to cause trouble."
Some villagers ran to inform the village chief, while others took out sticks and other things, ready to deal with these strangers at any time.
"Excuse me, where does Mr. Cheng Zishi live?" The leader was a kind-looking middle-aged man.
"We were sent by the county magistrate to help Mr. Cheng repair the school."
When the villagers heard that it was sent by the county magistrate, their hostility immediately disappeared.
"I'll take you to Mr. Cheng's house." A villager happily led the group to where Cheng Zishi lived.
Other villagers walked around.
"Look, there are all kinds of tools. It seems that the county magistrate really wants to renovate the school."
"What do you think? Will there be more children in our village going to school in the future?"
"Whether it's true or not, this is good news for our village. With the County Magistrate paying attention to our village, why should we worry about our village not being able to develop?"
The group arrived at Cheng Zishi's doorstep in a mighty procession.
Just then, Doctor Deng came out to pour out the medicine residue and saw this scene.
"How is this going?"
A villager explained, "Doctor Deng, this is the master sent by the county magistrate to repair the school."
Doctor Deng said, "Oh, I see."
"Can you take them to the ancestral hall?"
"I have talked to the village chief about converting the ancestral hall into a private school."
The villagers were naturally happy and hurriedly took the group of masters to the ancestral hall.
Before we reached the ancestral hall, the village chief had already arrived with his men.
"how……"
As soon as he said this, he saw the villagers chatting happily with the group of strangers, and immediately realized that things were not as he thought.
"Village chief, this was arranged by the county magistrate..." The villagers talked about the whole thing in unison.
After hearing this, the village chief smiled broadly and said, "This way, please."
Such a big commotion in the ancestral hall naturally attracted countless villagers.
Lian Mubao also brought Zheng Xingguang to join in the fun.
"Thanks to Mr. Cheng and Doctor Deng, otherwise the county magistrate would never have helped our village build a private school."
"This is a private school. With it, all children in the village will have the opportunity to go to school."
Mu Baobao exclaimed, and looked curiously at the masters hammering and banging. The village was finally going to have a private school.
very nice.
"Baby, let's go play." Zheng Xingguang was not interested in this and pulled her out.
As soon as the two came out, they saw three unfamiliar middle-aged men walking towards them.
