Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside Chapter 1547 - 1549: How Many Children Signed Up?

Chu Lian and Wang Xiangxiang ca and went quickly.

They stayed at the Yang Family for one night, and left the next day after finishing their business.

After seeing off Chu Lian and Wang Xiangxiang, Xiaoxiao went to see Li Chuntao again, still worried about the enrollnt situation. From what she observed the previous day, while not few children were enrolled, it wasn’t a lot either.

"Chuntao, how many children signed up?"

Li Chuntao looked around, roughly calculated, and said, "Xiaoxiao, the ordinary class is all boys for now, not a single girl, but there are nearly fifty kids so far. All of the Yang family’s kids have enrolled, accounting for about ten, and the village chief’s kids have also enrolled. As for the rest, so families don’t plan to send their children at all, sending only one if they do."

Hearing this, Xiaoxiao wasn’t surprised. This was what she expected. After all, no family was willing to send girls, and collecting fifty should be considered good. Almost all eligible children from the village have enrolled, and probably no more would join afterward. "What about those learning needlework? Is that a large number?"

"Not many, only fifteen right now."

Although Li Chuntao had enthusiastically talked about girls learning needlework yesterday, convincing many people, there were still many families unwilling to spend Silver on girls. After all, once married off, they’d belong to another family and can’t bring anything back to their parents’ house.

"No problem, this is already a great result," Xiaoxiao comforted, fearing Li Chuntao would get upset.

But to her surprise, Li Chuntao was really excited and said, "Xiaoxiao, I really didn’t expect so many children to enroll."

"..." Xiaoxiao was speechless. Li Chuntao was quite easily satisfied; just a mont ago, she was worried about her getting upset, but now she seed to have overthought it. With Li Chuntao being so easily satisfied, if the school grows bigger in the future, she might be overwheld.

She really wanted to say, "Calm down, calm down."

Li Chuntao was truly excited. She originally thought not so many children would co, especially since the villagers were traditionally conservative. But to her surprise, fifteen girls joined as well.

With so many children coming, this school definitely needed to be run well, couldn’t afford to let it close down.

Suddenly soone shouted, "Look, that carriage is carrying all tables and chairs. Those must be for the children, right?"

"Yes, definitely. So many, surely for the school."

"..."

"..."

Hearing the commotion at the door, Xiaoxiao and Li Chuntao hurried over to the entrance and saw the tables and chairs arrived, personally delivered by the Shopkeeper.

They called people to move the tables and chairs into the house, imdiately giving the place the look of a classroom.

With the tables and chairs in place, it was inevitable to let the villagers co and have a look, to show them that opening the school was serious and not just empty words, also indirectly reassuring them.

Seeing the brand-new tables and chairs, the villagers touched them, so even sat down, looking very much like students.

"Wow, this feels comfortable. The kids sitting here for class, it’s really nice. Sitting here myself, I feel like I’m learning too."

"Isn’t that so? We never went to a school, how would we know what one would look like inside?"

"..."

"..."

In fact, the adults all longed for school. It was just that they lacked the ans. Who wouldn’t want to go if they could?
