You mentioned last time that your school is recruiting teachers, with a yearly salary of five Silver Taels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ve thought it through and I’m ready to join anytime, you see...\" Chen Sheng said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"See what?\" Mu Shuangshuang’s eyes twitched, pretending not to understand Chen Sheng’s intention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, she understood his meaning perfectly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though she didn’t know why Chen Sheng changed his mind to take an interest in her school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she clearly remembered Chen Sheng insisting each student must pay him one Silver Tael as a gift.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She couldn’t possibly hire Chen Sheng to her school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inwardly, Chen Sheng had already cursed Mu Shuangshuang many times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To him, Mu Shuangshuang was being ungrateful, even though he had made his intentions quite clear, yet she dared to play dumb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Sheng squeezed out another smile, \"Miss Shuangshuang, my point is, when can I come over to teach? Seeing your school is built, you must have enrolled quite a few students, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m really sorry, but I’ve already hired a teacher. Luo Bai from Luohe Village, the new scholar, has agreed to help teach the local kids. As for the gift, I’ve already discussed it with him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Sheng knew Mu Shuangshuang already hired someone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this from Mu Shuangshuang, he wasn’t surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Luo Bai recently became a scholar, but I heard he just lost his father. Might he not have time to teach the kids?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss Shuangshuang, your school should have many students in the future, why not hire a couple of teachers then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This way, there will be a comparison to see who teaches better. Moreover, with more teachers, students will get more attention.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Sheng had a good head on him, at least he could suggest comparing two people to see who excels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Chen Sheng’s character were better, Mu Shuangshuang might have agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, Chen Sheng’s nature and conduct were well known to Mu Shuangshuang; she knew exactly what kind of person he was and whether he could properly teach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Chen, our school is small with few students. Likewise, we don’t have much money to hire more teachers; Luo Juren alone is sufficient!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A teacher costs five Silver Taels a year, and she’s already invested heavily in the private school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hiring others would mean spending more money, which Mu Shuangshuang couldn’t afford.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss Shuangshuang, I know you’re still holding a grudge from when I refused you last time, but I was just testing your resolve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I didn’t know if you were really going to open a school. You must know, Chen Sheng also likes children and wishes to teach them, I...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Sheng wanted to explain further, but Mu Shuangshuang interrupted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Really sorry, we truly don’t need more people.\" Mu Shuangshuang motioned for Chen Sheng to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, Chen Sheng was furious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He yelled, \"What do you think you are? I came looking for you out of my goodwill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without me, Chen Sheng, you think you can educate any decent students? Dream on!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mu Shuangshuang scoffed, directly retorting Chen Sheng, \"Please pass the scholar exam first, then speak to me like this, otherwise, kindly shut up!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You...\" Chen Sheng was left speechless, the words stuck in his throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stepped forward, intending to act but was stopped by Lu Yuanfeng, who quickly moved in front of Mu Shuangshuang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chen Sheng, if you’re a man, then leave quickly! Don’t force me to act.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously confused, Mu Dashan grabbed a dry branch from the ground unceremoniously, \"If you dare touch my daughter, it won’t end well for you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With two men standing in front of Mu Shuangshuang, Chen Sheng cursed a few times more and ran off, tail between his legs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mu Shuangshuang brushed off the dust on her hands and suggested everyone forget about the incident, ignoring Chen Sheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But everyone was still curious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mu Shuangshuang had to explain Chen Sheng’s situation briefly to the third branch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Si Niang, who previously thought Chen Sheng was courteous, no longer sided with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the few oranges Chen Sheng had returned, they looked distasteful no matter how much they saw them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shuang, maybe... we should return these oranges to him!\" Yu Si Niang suggested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mu Shuangshuang chuckled and shook her head, \"Mom, you’re right, but to see that weirdo again just for a few oranges, I can’t bring myself to do it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Better yet, let’s not eat the oranges and just toss them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mu Shuangshuang wasn’t one to waste, but encountering someone as odd as Chen Sheng, she’d rather waste.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright! Mom will do it now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything related to the school was wrapped up by the twentieth of the first lunar month.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nowadays, Er Gui Village has a school built at the foot of the mountain; although modest and not very grand, this place will carry the hopes of many in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps, students emerging from here will become Scholars, become scholars, or even reach higher positions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the day the school was completed, everyone from the village came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The people were wandering in and out, curious to see what the village’s first school looked like.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some men who had never been to school even sat in the classroom, playing student and teacher.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nobody in the third branch stopped this behavior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though villagers had never attended school, deep down, they all had a small dream to one day, like the wealthy children from the town, take a visit to the school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if it was just a visit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yuanfeng followed the crowd quietly, suddenly expressing a sentiment, \"If only everyone could attend school, even if just for a year or so.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Unfortunately, for farm families, attending school is too difficult; three Silver Taels a year, that’s more than a few fields could yield.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yuanfeng hadn’t studied, so his words carried a strong sense of resonance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mu Shuangshuang seldom saw this side of Lu Yuanfeng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yuanfeng was usually reserved, mostly internalizing his emotions, which seemed quite mature for his age.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, with his emotions on display, it proved how correct they were in letting villagers visit the school today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fengzi, do you believe that maybe there’s a place where regardless of age or gender, education isn’t particularly difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anytime you want to enter school, you can study, and nobody needs to spend a generation or even several generations saving money just to raise a single student?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mu Shuangshuang was referring to modern times, equality between men and women, with more opportunities to save money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yuanfeng’s eyes lit up, the gloom on his face suddenly dissipated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I believe! As long as it’s said by Shuangshuang, I believe it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re really naive...\" Mu Shuangshuang said with a laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her happiness was so apparent that even passing villagers felt envious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The third branch’s Shuang and Fengzi are doing better and better; I heard they saved up for a restaurant and fields together.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, how does Mu the Third have such good fortune? His daughter can earn money, even the son-in-law is capable.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1179,"2026-06-10T06:01:57.542Z",1,"novelbin.me","dc79f6b7010610c7870bb27357dd532788adc146ffaf83399f6e1da72e0487ac","from-folly-to-fortune-i-rewrite-my-life-after-re-chapter-944","from-folly-to-fortune-i-rewrite-my-life-after-re-chapter-1280",1282,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffrom-folly-to-fortune-i-rewrite-my-life-after-re-cover.jpg"]
