As a family of officials, the first priority is to have a prosperous family.
In addition to a few cousins in Lu Yijian's family, he alone has five sons and one daughter, a total of six children.
There are also many members of the Wang Zeng family. According to the "Acts of Wang Wenzhenggong" written by Fu Bi, Wang Zeng had four boys and three girls, a total of seven children.
But compared with Yan Shu, he pales in comparison.
Yan Shu has ten children so far, six sons and four daughters, and there will be several more in the future. According to the "Yan Family Genealogy", there are a total of nine sons, six daughters and fifteen daughters.
That's nothing. He has more grandchildren, currently more than twenty, and his second son Yan Chengyu alone has six.
Therefore, the Yan Shu family is a truly prosperous family with prosperous heirs. Among them, the seventh son, Yan Jidao, is the most famous. He is currently pregnant and will not be born until next year.
As the head of the Yan family, Yan Shu naturally hoped that his children would be able to enter the officialdom and enjoy the glory and wealth. Therefore, although he did not oppose Fan Zhongyan's reforms in history, he did not support his friends. Instead, he chose to protect himself and remain silent. He was considered a neutral faction.
Now everyone is striving for the interests of their own families. Yan Shu is the first to win, and now he seems to have become the closest person to Zhao Jun. Naturally, he will not shy away from relatives when recruiting virtuous people, but he must also start thinking about his own descendants.
However, this obviously offended the public. Although Lu Yijian, Wang Zeng and others had established three group chats and did not deal with each other, if these six people joined forces, Zhao Zhen would probably have to weigh the consequences.
Therefore, after noticing the glares from everyone, Yan Shu could only say with a smile that it was just a joke, and then discussed with everyone which family would have the most suitable number of people.
In the end, it was Zhao Zhen who made the decision. Each family of the seven of them would give one first, and the Lu Yijian Wang Zeng and Yan Shu families would each give one more, dividing the ten students' places.
As for the actors who play the adults, they are also simple.
There are now seven of them, King Zeng Yanshu of Lu Yijian, and then Zhao Zhen, Fan Zhongyan, plus the imperial doctor who gave Zhao Jun acupuncture, there are nine middle-aged and elderly people in their 40s to 60s, and one young man.
It is reasonable to keep one or two young men in the village. If it is not enough, we can find ways to add more people later.
In addition to male characters, female characters will also be included.
Teenage men and women are definitely not good. According to Zhao Jun, young boys and girls in impoverished mountainous areas in later generations will either drop out of school early to work in their teens, or they will work hard to study and get admitted to a county school or a technical technical school. It is almost impossible for them to appear. In the village.
Then there can only be middle-aged women over thirty or forty years old in the village, and Zhao Jun once said that he would go to the village committee to report. Yan Shu had learned about the organizational structure of the village committee by making some insinuations.
A village usually has a village secretary who is a party member, a village director, commonly known as the village chief, and three to seven village committee members.
The specific number of people is determined according to the size of the village. Based on the situation in Nini Village, it is estimated that the village is poor and there are not too many people. Therefore, the village committee can only have three at most, and then one more female committee member will be added.
Then there are the wives that middle-aged and elderly people should have. One or two widowers can be set, but since the village is full of old men and old ladies, there should still be a few old women.
It's easy to find women these days, but it's hard to find women who have rural habits and generally know the rules. It is easy to send people to the countryside to find a few, but rural women often do not understand the general situation and do not know the priorities of things. What if something slips up during the conversation with Zhao Jun?
And if you want to find your own wives, they are all the wives of a certain country's duchess, and the wives of such and such a county's duchess. At worst, they are all ladies and gentlemen of the third and fourth grades. They are all pampered, graceful and luxurious, and they can't show the charm of rural women in the countryside. When it comes to strength, it is also easy to reveal the secret.
So after everyone studied and brainstormed, they finally decided to go back to their mansions to search for the old ladies in their mansions, and let them pretend to be their mothers-in-law to act as cover.
Many old ladies were born in rural areas, and their hands and feet were diligent and neat. Moreover, they all learned something because they entered the mansions of dignitaries. For example, you can observe people's emotions and be able to speak eloquently. At the same time, I also know what to say and what not to say.
Therefore, as long as they can retain their rural habits and give them some good advice, they should probably be able to pass the test.
It's best to be an old woman from the southwest Yi or Tubo people. It's okay to know the dialects of the minority languages in the southwest. Anyway, Yan Shu has already asked. Zhao Jun is from Hunan. In the Song Dynasty, it was Jinghu South Road. He can't understand Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan. of minority languages.
After that, the name, corresponding identity and background, as well as personality characteristics, character templates, etc. are considered and planned one by one. To put it simply, it is planning the character and story background.
Although the Ming and Qing Dynasties were the pinnacle of novels, the Song Dynasty was not without its novels, but it was just not as famous as the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
After several days of preparation, we were finally ready. The candidates were found on the first day, and the next few days were mainly about training the personnel and getting them to memorize their own identity templates.
On May 9th, which was Zhao Jun's first month in the Song Dynasty, at four o'clock in the morning, before dawn, the Imperial Garden became lively.
Seven or eight old women each dragged their young masters and ladies into the garden. They were all people who had seen the world. They were just looking around curiously, but they didn't have that much fear or anxiety.
Yan Shu first went to Zhao Jun's room and told him that he would bring the children here today. In addition, he also said that people in the village were curious about what the teacher looked like and wanted to come over to have a look. This made Zhao Jun feel more stressed and planned the first time. How to arrange the class well.
When it was about five o'clock in the morning and the sky was bright, Yan Shu came in and out, helped Zhao Jun deliver breakfast, and brought his backpack and suitcase over. Zhao Jun rummaged in the suitcase for a long time and took out a laptop.
Fortunately, the suitcase is of good quality and there is no damage at all. The laptop is also wrapped in a waterproof laptop bag, and there are no accidents. The battery was fully charged when it arrived, and you can hear the sound of the fan when you press it.
Yan Shu looked at Zhao Jun's Huawei laptop curiously. It was the first time he had seen something like this that could emit light on its own. But he knew that there were many things that he couldn't ask randomly, so he didn't say anything. After he came out of the room, the door was open. Yes, those old women and children were outside the door and peeking in.
"Is this the gentleman who came from later generations?"
"What's that in his hand?"
"Who knows, it might be a treasure for future generations."
"We also have to pretend to be descendants."
"Shh, be quieter."
Everyone stood back a little and whispered. It just so happened that Zhao Zhen, Lu Yijian and others over there had also finished their morning court and came over, so everyone was almost there.
Yan Shu went up and asked the old ladies, "Do you think there is any problem? If there is no problem, we will go in."
One of the old ladies rubbed her hands in embarrassment and said, "Mr. Yan asked us to pretend to be the elders of the family who are watching the excitement. But in our countryside, if we come to see the teacher teach, we have to give something as a gift. We also I don’t know if this will be the case in future generations.”
Yan Shu thought for a while, shook his head and said, "That's probably not the case."
"That's good, that's good."
The old lady stepped back.
Another old woman saw that Yan Shu was quite easy to talk to, so she said, "We in the countryside don't like giving away anything, but we like to watch the excitement and crack melon seeds and eat watermelon. Does that count?"
"Forehead......"
Yan Shu scratched his head, hesitated and said, "Summer is here. It will get hot soon. It would be good to eat some watermelon."
"We will bring our own bench there."
"There aren't that many stools in the palace. They are all imperial chairs. Just squat there and look at them."
"I just don't know if that gentleman is easy to talk to. I'm afraid his secret will be revealed."
“Talk less and watch more.”
Several old ladies were still a little worried, and Yan Shu calmed them down.
Zhao Zhen came over and asked, "How is it?"
"That's it."
Yan Shu raised his head and glanced at the sky. It was already bright. This point was called sunrise in the Han Dynasty and Mao hour in the Song Dynasty. There is a saying that works at sunrise and rests at sunset, which refers to this time.
So for later generations, this point may be at least three or four hours away from work, but for people in the Song Dynasty, it was the point of work or farming.
Zhao Jun's current routine has also been distorted. He thought it was eight or nine o'clock in the morning, and he was blind and didn't know the time.
"Xiao Zhao, everyone is here."
Yan Shu went in first and informed Zhao Jun before everyone came in with the children.
"Hello teacher."
The children shouted in unison, which was the result of previous rehearsals.
When Zhao Jun heard the children's voices, a bright smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he said kindly: "Hello children, my name is Zhao Jun, Zhao from Zhao Qian Sun Li, Jun from Jun Ma, you can just call me Teacher Zhao from now on. .”
"Hello, Teacher Zhao."
This time the sounds were sparse, some didn’t respond, and some shouted slower and the rhythm was different. This was not within the scope of pre-rehearsal.
But it didn't hurt. Yan Shu soon took over and said: "Xiao Zhao, the villagers heard that you want to meet the children and give the children their first lesson. Everyone is very happy. Come and see you. .”
"Hello, Teacher Zhao."
"We are all here to see the teacher."
"Yes, we heard that the teacher is here, and we all want to come and have a look."
This time it was Zhao Zhen, Lu Yijian and the others. Among the voices of a group of middle-aged and elderly people was mixed with the voice of a young man named Zhao Zhen, which was in line with Zhao Jun's expectation that there would be many elderly people left behind in remote mountain villages and fewer young adults.
"Hello everyone."
Zhao Jun put his notebook on the bed, groped his way out of bed, and bowed in the direction of the sound. He still had two years to stay in the village, so he had to leave a good impression on everyone.
"The teacher is so polite."
"Teacher, please go back to bed and sit down."
"It shouldn't be right."
A few old ladies could speak in blunt Southwest dialect.
Zhao Jun didn't hear anything strange and said with a smile: "I will still trouble everyone in the future."
Yan Shu stepped forward and asked, "Would you like to introduce it to the teacher?"
These characters are all his favorite works. In addition to showing off, more importantly, they want to help Zhao Jun deepen his fixed thinking.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Jun never thought that he would travel through time, so he felt relieved when he heard the voices of these men, women, and children, and said: "It's okay, Uncle Lari. I can't see now anyway. You can give it to me when your eyes are healed." Just an introduction."
"ah?"
Yan Shu was depressed. The good guy had worked so hard to destroy his character, wasting all his hard work and losing blood.
Of course Zhao Jun was blindfolded and didn't know Yan Shu's current expression. He sat back on the bed and picked up his notebook and said: "I originally wanted to give you a normal class, but I think my eyes are not healed yet and there is no blackboard." , you will definitely not be able to attend ordinary classes, so take a special class. What I want to talk about is the mystery of the universe, and why we humans should advocate science."
