    Seeing that Sun and Zhang seemed to have something to talk about and that they were not in a hurry about their own affairs, the people from the municipal company exchanged a few words and left.  Sun Yuanqi sent them out of the building. When he came back, he no longer sat behind his desk. Instead, he accompanied Zhang Yuanji and sat on the chairs on both sides of the coffee table.

    In fact, when Zhang Yuanji entered the office, he took a look at the principal's office: the office was small and very plain, with not even a single calligraphy or painting hanging on the white-lime walls, and there were no common brushes, ink blocks, or rice paper on the desk.  , inkstone, only an ink bottle and a few pieces of cut white paper. On the white paper is the pen just held in the hand, and there are a few pieces of paper next to it, presumably full of words.  In addition to a desk, a coffee table for guests, and a few chairs, there is also a bookcase with hundreds of books. The books are all new, and many of them should be foreign books, but there are almost no books like ordinary scholars¡¯ desks.  The yellowed Four Books and Five Classics.

    When Sun Yuan sat up and settled down, he put down his tea cup and said solemnly: "I'm presumptuous to come here suddenly without informing you. Please don't take it off. I'm just very curious and want to see with my own eyes."  Let¡¯s see what the school planned by my wise brother actually looks like.¡±

    "Hahaha, the school is open. It is a place for people to visit and learn. Why do you think it's strange? Besides, you are also a member of the school, so why do you think it's disturbing?" It was obvious that Sun Yuanqi didn't care about this.  One point, "How is it? After taking a look around, what do you think? Needless to say the good things, let's talk about the bad things. Let's work together to change them. In this way, the school will get better and better!"

    "Then I won't be presumptuous, just say a few words based on what I saw and heard?" Zhang Yuanji was not polite, shook the hem of his cotton robe, changed into a more comfortable position, and then said slowly: "The school is generally good.  The mountains and rivers are beautiful, the scenery is beautiful, and the buildings have unique charm. It is not easy to have such specifications less than half a year after the school was founded. However, is it too far from the capital? It is very inconvenient to go to the city and return to the school.  ?¡±

    ¡°Isn¡¯t this ¡®rice in the capital is expensive and living in a big city is difficult¡¯?¡± Sun Yuanqi replied with a smile.

    "Isn't it right? There are a lot of wastelands around the capital, and the price is not much higher than this." Zhang Yuanji had experienced the world and would not be fooled by this false shot.

    Seeing that he was serious, Sun Yuanqi no longer concealed anything: "The capital is a prosperous place, where many wise and talented people from all over the world gather, so the school should be located near the capital. However, while the capital gathers books and property, it is also the place where things are most likely to go wrong.  , Let¡¯s not talk about it far away, let¡¯s talk about the national coup the year before last. The capital was burned and looted, and the Old Summer Palace outside the city could not escape the disaster. The country is still like this, if such changes happen again, how can the school avoid disaster? This is one of them.  . The students in the school are full-blooded, and they will not stand idly by once something happens to the country. And throughout the ages, such things have been deeply hated by the authorities. Near the capital, it is difficult to prevent things from happening; but far away in the mountains, the news lags behind, maybe  There are ways to buffer it. This is the second one.¡±

    Hearing this, Zhang Yuanji frowned slightly and interjected: "Study wisely. In the final analysis, we still have to benefit the country and the people. How can we shrink from moving forward because of temporary disasters?"

    "What Mr. Wang said is absolutely true. Students study, ultimately, to serve the country and the people, but there are more than one ways, such as rejuvenating the country through science and technology, industry, education, etc. What we prevent is just the impulsiveness of students, and  It¡¯s not their patriotism and love for the people. And with the development of schools and the advancement of science and technology, the forty miles to the city may only take half an hour, or even less than half an hour. This is the third reason. When you come,  You should see a small village in front of the school, but in half a year, it will be empty. I believe that in about ten years, everything will change!"

    Yes, as long as the Revolution of 1911 breaks out and the Republic of China government is established ten years later, everything will change.  Sun Yuanqi added this sentence in his heart.

    "Oh, that's it." Zhang Yuanji nodded, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Brother Xian just mentioned something about 'ten years later'. In fact, I have always had a question in my mind. "Zuo Zhuan" says, 'It's  A country, a dynasty, a province, a county, or even a family or a person are all like this. Remember that during the Wuxu years, reforms came and went, and all the knowledgeable people in the world were happy and encouraged.  , thinking that the prosperity of the country could be expected. However, in a few months, the situation has changed, and now, the country is declining and the national power is losing ground. It is puzzling to think about it."

    "The same goes for running schools. Not to mention the recent Capital University, even the historically famous Shigu Academy, Bailudong Academy, etc., most of them are done because of people, and people leave the government. What I have done in Shanghai in the past few years  Working in the school, I know a little bit about the situation of European and Western schools. I heard that the University Hall of Oxford and Cambridge in England, the University of Paris in France, and the University of Heidelberg in Germany are all six or seven hundred years old, and todaynbsp;Sun Yuanqi couldn't refuse, so he had to reply vaguely "Oh".  At this time, a group of female relatives came from the back hall with an old lady in their arms. Sun Yuanqi pulled Vera and stood up in a hurry to salute.  Those people obviously knew that Sun Yuanqi had brought a foreign wife here, and they were all very curious. Their eyes were focused on Vera, but they were all blessed and did not say much.

    There was a large circle of "grandma", "aunt" and "sister-in-law". After greeting each other, they all sat down. The old woman asked Sun Yuanqi how he planned to hold the wedding.  According to the original arrangement, a Western-style wedding would be held at the church in the morning, and then a Chinese-style wedding would be held back at Jingshi University.  Sun Yuanqi said this, and the old lady shook her head repeatedly: "No, no, this is not etiquette!"

    "" Sun Yuanqi couldn't argue with the old lady, so he had to resign himself to fate.

    I saw several middle-aged aunts gathering together and muttering, and then one of them said a few words to the old lady, and the old lady gently touched her palms and said: "That's good! Baixi, your aunts just discussed it, you  Aren't you getting married on the 21st of the first lunar month? You come here on the 20th of the first lunar month and go to the chapel on the morning of the 21st. After everything is done, you come back first, and then we will send a wedding sedan to the chapel to pick up your wife and come here to pay her respects. Go back on the 22nd.  !¡±

    The wedding arrangements were finalized, and Sun Yuanqi was not allowed to resist.

    ?????????????? But getting married is also very enlightening.

    For example, let¡¯s take a church.  Regarding churches in Beijing, Sun Yuanqi only knew the most famous Xishiku Church. He had visited it once during Christmas in the 21st century, so he was particularly impressed.  Through this marriage, I learned that Xishku Church is a Catholic church and not the same church as the Protestant church that Vera¡¯s parents believe in

    This marriage involved everyone Sun Yuanqi knew: Mr. Ding Hailiang was the priest, and the American Minister Mr. Conger was the witness. I don¡¯t know where they also hired several foreign children to act as flower girls. As for the school  Many foreigners attended the ceremony.

    When we arrived at Lianzi Hutong, we found it was packed with officials who came to cheer us up.  At the banquet, Sun Yuanqi swore on the happiness of his lower body: 99.9% of the people in this place have never seen it before.  But they call each other "good brother" and "foolish brother", which is so affectionate!

    There are also those old people with gray beards who talk nonsense and say things like, "Good nephew, I remember when you were five or six years old, I saw you once from a distance, and I knew you were a good nephew with just one glance."  There will be great achievements in the future. Looking at it now, it is indeed true." If it were not in front of so many people, I would really want to spit on his face!  You actually met me when I was five or six years old?  Are you always traveling through time?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
