The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

After being comforted by Lao Zhao, Zhang Huan packed up his things and went to Chen Village, intending to stay there for a long time.

Raising pigs is not something that can be done in a day or two.

Recently, the academy has become lively, and the enrollment work has begun. The people of the academy have started to advertise in the villages around ten miles by carriage. The academy wants to recruit students, even if they have not been enlightened. As long as they pass the academy's admission interview, they can go to the academy for enlightenment.

And the students enrolled last year are no longer considered enlightened students this year. They must be promoted to senior grades, changed teachers to teach, and learn new content. In addition, new courses on the curriculum must also be arranged.

Liu Niang is now very glorious. She has selected several apprentices in the cafeteria of the academy, and she is ready to establish a school.

After selecting people, the remaining people were taken by Lao Zhou to meet the teachers of the academy, and then they were arranged to various places, either to do sweeping, or to do odd jobs, or to guard the gate.

Liu Niang was standing in the cafeteria. Just when she was about to start teaching everyone, she saw everyone kneeling in front of Liu Niang.

"Apprentice greets Master."

Liu Niang was stunned.

This?

Liu Niang can't do it again.

But in the eyes of others, learning cooking from Liu Niang, Liu Niang is the manager of the kitchen of Jingyang Palace, and her cooking skills are the best in Jingyang Palace.

Learning to be a cook is a skill to make a living. People take out this skill to teach them, so Liu Niang is their master.

It's not shameful for an apprentice to kowtow to the master and learn skills from the master.

After learning this skill, it is a skill to support the family and make money.

Why should I teach you for nothing?

"Get up quickly." Liu Niang hurried forward to help people up.

"Master, we learn cooking from you and kowtow to you. This is what we should do."

"Yes, we came here with housekeeper Zhou today. We don't know what we will be selected to do in the academy, so we are not well prepared. We will definitely pay our tribute to you later."

"Yes, you will be our master from now on. If there is anything, you can leave it to us."

Everyone was talking at the same time, making Liu Niang, an honest person, not know what to say.

Tribute?

Can I receive tribute myself?

She only helped her son prepare it and gave it to Dr. Lu.

Unexpectedly, one day I would become a master?

Liu Niang felt floating in her heart, as if she had a little unsolid feeling.

"You should get up first." Liu Niang said, "Speaking of which, the work in the kitchen is not easy, and it is not much easier than your usual work in the fields. You need to be in good health to endure it, whether it is the canteen here in the academy or the new restaurant on the farm."

"So, you still have to be mentally prepared." Liu Niang said, "The work in the kitchen is also a delicate job. After all, it is food that is eaten, so you have to be cautious and don't think that you can get away with it by fooling around. There can't be any problems in the kitchen.

For example, if the food that comes out of the kitchen causes health problems after people eat it, can we take this responsibility?"

Everyone nodded and listened to Liu Niang carefully.

"So, from now on, I will explain the most basic things to you bit by bit. Only when you understand and know them clearly, will I officially start teaching you how to cook..."

Liu Niang felt that since she had become a master, she had to be more responsible and take good care of her apprentices. Otherwise, if there were any problems with her apprentices in the future, wouldn't she, as a master, be a little bit to blame?

In the evening, the people in the canteen of the academy went home.

Today was a good start for them.

No, it should be said that the day when Butler Zhou announced the list of selected candidates was a good start.

Zhang Zhong's wife was among them.

As for those who wanted to join the academy after returning home from the construction site, they found that there were two or three hundred people who signed up for the twenty or thirty positions in the academy, and they were dumbfounded.

However, they still had a fluke in their hearts.

Because they were from the manor, if the academy wanted to hire people, they would definitely give priority to the people from the manor, right?

Moreover, they were all strong and hardworking men, and they were easy to arrange in the academy and could do any work.

Some even secretly brought things and money to Lao Zhou.

Lao Zhou had been warned by Li Fu in advance, so he would not tolerate them and drove them out directly.

When they saw Lao Zhou's attitude, they began to wonder.

Could it be that he really couldn't take care of both ends?

The final result was as expected.

The academy was not selected, but the construction site was goneTheir position.

Regret, regret to the point that their heels are blue.

They went to Lao Zhou indignantly to ask for an explanation.

"Butler Zhou, why can't we, who are strong and healthy, be elected?"

"Yes, Lao Wei, his legs are lame, how can he be elected?"

"That's right, who among us is not better than Lao Wei?"

Lao Zhou's eyes swept over these people indifferently.

"You? Better than Lao Wei?"

Sweeped by Lao Zhou's cold eyes, the arrogance of these people was extinguished in an instant.

"We, at least we are not lame."

"Humph." Old Zhou snorted coldly: "How did Old Wei's leg become lame?"

"Don't forget, Old Wei used to be a palace soldier. His leg was lame in the battle, when he fought against the Turks." Old Zhou said sternly: "You still want to compete with Old Wei? If there were no soldiers like Old Wei to fight on the battlefield, the last time the Turks went south, they would have reached Jingyang County! Can you still yell at me here? Do you still have the life to yell at me?"

"I tell you, my husband is kind, thinking about protecting people and land, look at you again."

"What are you."

After scolding, Old Zhou turned around and went to do other things, leaving the few people who were left there, at a loss.

Zhang Zhong's wife was selected to work in the cafeteria of the academy, which was considered to be what she wanted. When the family sat together to eat in the evening, they were happier than the day they moved to a new home.

"I have a stable job and can earn money. When I have more money, I will let our daughter go to school. The academy in the village also accepts female students." Zhang Wang said, "I don't know about other places in the future, but in this area, in Jingyang County, if you want to live a good life, you must have some culture and be able to read and write, so that you can have a good future."

Originally, the two old people in the family were a little unhappy about letting their granddaughter go to school, but after listening to their daughter-in-law's words, they felt that it made sense.

Where is the good future for girls? They have to marry into a good family.
