The first girls' school in the Daewoo Dynasty, called Daewoo Girls' School, was located in the west of the city.
There used to be a large house with five rooms in the west of the city. It was the dowry of the current queen. It was uninhabited on weekdays, so it was transformed into a women's school.
Cheng Zhao personally supervised the construction here, assisted by officials from the Prince's East Palace, and co-organized by female officials from Kunning Palace. It took two months to finally become what a school should be like.
On the fourth day of February, the first day of school for girls started.
When the first ray of sunshine in the morning falls on the eaves, the quiet school gradually becomes lively.
Daughters of common people came earlier, dressed in their most appropriate clothes, and lined up at the door to enter in groups.
They looked up at the door of the school. The door was gilded with gold, the eaves were like hooks, and the green tiles faced the light, making it look sacred and inviolable.
"I didn't expect that we ordinary people could also attend such a good school."
"This is a school founded by the Queen and Mrs. Sui, and since there are princesses enrolled, it won't be too bad."
"I don't know if the Queen and Mrs. Sui will come to the school today. I have never seen these two nobles before."
"I have absolutely no idea what this school teaches. Do you know?"
"We'll find out later when we get in."
The female students handed in their registration vouchers and then entered in an orderly manner from the main entrance.
After entering, there is a huge square with smooth marble tiles on the ground and many paintings hanging on the walls, which are portraits of women.
Naturally, these civilian women did not know the people in these portraits. They had to get closer and read the words to know the names. However, there were not many literate people present, so they could only listen to the narrations from those who could.
"This is Princess Taiping. She took the initiative to get married more than ten years ago and received many praises."
"The first woman here is Queen Xiaojia, who is the first queen of our Dayu Dynasty. I didn't expect Queen Xiaojia to be such a strange woman."
"This is an ordinary civilian woman. During the war, she used her frail body to save the children of the entire village. The locals gave her a golden body and it was passed down as a myth."
"There is also Madam Chu. More than a hundred years ago, she studied the weaving method of linen thread and improved the weaving technology..."
"All the women on this wall are famous and famous women from the Daewoo Dynasty..."
There are a total of twenty-four paintings. From the founding of the People's Republic of China to the present, the portraits of all the women who have contributed to the Daewoo Dynasty are on them. Everyone's life is a legendary song.
The commoner women stood in front of the stone wall in a daze, each one thoughtful.
Will one day they, like the woman in the portrait, become a legend praised by everyone?
While everyone was looking at the portrait of the woman, a discordant sound came from behind.
"You poor people, get out of the way!"
A scolding sound came, and the commoner women turned their heads.
I saw a group of daughters of aristocratic families who were about twelve or thirteen years old approaching. Each of them was dressed in extremely bright and beautiful clothes, either brocade satin, gold and silver thread embroidery, or water and sky colored silk and satin... In short, as soon as I saw them, I was so excited. Knowing that this is the richest class in the Daewoo Dynasty, ordinary people cannot afford to offend them.
The one at the head is the youngest daughter of Mr. Feng, the current first-grade Taibao.
The Taibao is from the Prince's East Palace. Miss Feng often goes to the palace to play with her biological father, and she has a good relationship with the princes and princesses of similar age in the palace.
Because she has a great wealth and status, and her friends are all members of the royal family, she has always been the one who is favored in the circle of officials' daughters.
She walked over, glanced at the portraits on the wall one by one, and said coldly: "These lowly common people are worthy of appearing on the stone wall with Queen Xiaojia and Princess Taiping. They are simply an insult to the royal family, just like you These lowly common people are worthy of studying in the women's school with us, I don't know why the Queen made such an arrangement."
Her rebuke made the civilian women beside her lower their heads.
Some of them are ordinary people from the lower class. Their parents sent them here because the women's school is exempted from the tuition fee. The other part is the daughter of businessmen. Their parents send them to the women's school in the hope that they can get to know girls from aristocratic families and become close friends. , maybe it can be helpful to the family's business... But looking at this situation, it is impossible for them to make friends with the daughters of the aristocratic family, because people simply look down on low-status people like them.
"You all heard clearly." Miss Feng snorted and said, "From now on, wherever we appear, you lowly people will automatically avoid us. If anyone dares to approach us without looking long, don't blame me for not giving him permission." You are embarrassed."
All the civilian women present were silent and did not dare to object. They lowered their heads and acquiesced.
"Who is so grand?" A cold voice came. Although the voice was clear, it was a bit cold, "With such a big pomp, I thought it was the master of the women's school who came, but it turned out to be just a student. . However, even if the master comes, if he shows off his power in front of the students, the women's school will not tolerate such a teacher, let alone a mere student."
Miss Feng looked up and saw a plainly dressed woman approaching.
This woman is naturally Cheng Wanwan, but Miss Feng does not know Cheng Wanwan.
Although she and Cheng Wanwan had appeared together at the palace banquet, Cheng Wanwan belonged to the circle of women, and she belonged to the circle of rich men. She had only seen Mrs. Sui from a distance, and Mrs. Sui, who was gorgeously dressed at the palace banquet, was different from the clothes in front of her. Such a simple woman, it is impossible to imagine that they are the same person.
Miss Feng said coldly: "Who are you, and you are qualified to criticize me? Do you know who I am? My father is the first-grade Taibao today, and my mother is..."
"Of course I know you are Miss Feng." Cheng Wanwan's smile showed indifference, "Feng Taibao is a veteran of three dynasties. He tried his best to assist the prince and teach his highness to be a benevolent king. Unexpectedly, he neglected In order to discipline her little daughter, Miss Feng is arrogant, domineering, arrogant, and has a high self-esteem. There is no trace of kindness in her. Our girls' school cannot tolerate such students. Someone please cross this Miss Feng out of the student list. .”
"What?" Miss Feng's eyes suddenly opened wide, "Who are you and why do you decide whether I will stay or go? If my father knew..."
"You talk about dad every day, are you only three years old?" Ruan Mingzhu came from behind with a look of disdain, "Feng Jingfu, you are also thirteen years old, can you let your dad walk independently?"
Miss Feng, whose maiden name was Feng Jingfu, was named and humiliated by Ruan Mingzhu, and her face turned red with anger.
"Didn't you ask who this is?" Ruan Mingzhu smiled and said, "This is Mrs. Sui, the famous second-grade imperial concubine of our Dayu Dynasty. This school is led by the Queen, but all the details are taken care of by Sui. Madam, it’s finalized. At the same time, Madam Sui is also the temporary headmaster of Daewoo Women’s School. Do you think Madam Sui is qualified to remove you?”
Speaking of the mountain chief, Cheng Wanwan felt a little bald.
She thought that the queen would find an outstanding female gentleman to be the mountain leader, but she did not expect that three days before the start of school, the queen handed her the mountain leader's token.
The token has been engraved, does she still have room to refuse?
She had no choice but to agree to serve as the mountain chief temporarily for three months. Once a new mountain chief was found, she would step down immediately.
She raised her eyes to look at Feng Jingfu and said softly: "There are one hundred and thirty-six new students in the first batch of women's school. You are not more than one, and you are not less than you. Should Miss Feng leave by herself, or should I let you go?" Send someone to the Feng family to inform your father to pick you up?"
Feng Jingfu's little face suddenly stiffened.
