Spring In Tiansheng
Chapter 27

Hua Chunran kept her promise. As they rested on the way, after eating and resting for a while he would teach Dan Yin to learn to read and write.

Because they were not carrying ink stones, so Hua Chunran asked the guards to burn the wood and use the charcoal to write on the stone.

Hua Chunran also had her guards look for stones wide enough as a writing medium as they passed the river full of rocks.

And Yin was very happy and felt very excited. The other guards actually also wanted to learn to read and write like Dan Yin, but they did not dare to have Hua Chunran teach them. So they could only silently observe Dan Yin who was studying .

Hua Chunran finally realized that her guards were also interested in learning to read and write .

" Do you also want to learn like Dan Yin? " question Hua Chunran surprised all his guards as well as the two chariot drivers who were with them.

They hesitantly replied "no, no miss, I dare not.."

" If you want to learn, I will teach you. Being able to learn to read and write will be very useful for you later, so as not to be easily fooled by people . As my guard it is also useful to me that you can protect me." Hua Chunran tried to persuade them.

The guards thought for a moment and felt the truth in Hua Chunran's words. Excitedly they agreed.

" We want to learn, miss." Everyone said in unison except Zhao Xifeng.

Hua Chunran smiled with satisfaction, but seeing Zhao Xifeng who was just silent Hua Chunran frowned.

"Guard Zhao, don't you want to learn? " Tanya Hua Chunran while looking at Zhao Xifeng in wonder .

Everyone then turned their heads towards Zhao Xifeng as soon as they heard Hua Chunran's question to Zhao Xifeng.

Zhao Xifeng felt awkward then nodded." I'll learn, please help miss.." .

Actually Zhao Xifeng was already good at reading and writing, he even had some special teachers who would teach him every day since he was a child.

But if he said he could already read and write everyone would suspect his identity. He could only accept the lesson from Hua Chunran.

Actually deep down, his admiration for the figure of Hua Chunran was growing by the day. Especially with her honorable status Hua Chunran volunteered to teach her servants and guards to read and write. Never had Zhao Xifeng found such a generous and sincere person like Hua Chunran.

Hua Chunran nodded and smiled in satisfaction at Zhao Xifeng's reply. He then continued his lesson. What surprised Hua Chunran when each person had prepared a wide stone and charcoal by themselves. They turned out to have secretly prepared it all this time .

Hua Chunran was dumbfounded and a happy smile flashed on her lips that were as red as Cherry.

Zhao Xifeng looked at Hua Chunran who was smiling silently. His smile bloomed and was as soothing as the spring breeze. Zhao Xifeng's pitch-black eyes shone, there was a strange feeling infiltrating into his heart.

From that day on, yes from that day on, when he first saw her at the dragon boat festival, he felt this girl was different.

Jiang Zhen seemed to know Zhao Xifeng would not have his own stone and charcoal, he turned out to prepare two pieces of stone and immediately gave one to Zhao Xifeng and some charcoal .

Zhao Xifeng accepted it with complicated feelings. His heart warmed and he thanked Jiang Zhen sincerely . Jiang Zhen only smiled as he patted Zhao Xifeng's shoulder casually.

Every day they will rest for two hours during the day trip, one hour is used for eating and resting.An hour is used for studying.

Everyone was very excited to learn and felt the long journey they took was getting more fun. At night they also rest. Although they were still able to continue the continuous journey, their horses had to rest in order not to get exhausted.

Hua Chunran not only taught Dan Yin and the other Hanzi letters but also introduced them to the Latin alphabet . Numbers also .Do not forget to also teach them the romanization of pinyin to bridge Mandarin letters with Latin letters.

Zhao Xifeng who has not studied the letters of the Latin alphabet, numbers and the Romanization of pinyin felt he got a new knowledge.This time he studied in earnest.

Why did Zhao Xifeng feel that Hua Chunran was more knowledgeable and smarter than the teachers who taught her since childhood?. Even Zhao Xifeng felt Hua Chunran deserved to be a master teacher of the kingdom. Where did Hua Chunran's intelligence and vast knowledge come from?

"Are many of our people unable to read and write ?" hua Chunran asked suddenly.

Everyone nodded in unison..

" it would be nice if more people could read and write. If many people could read and write our country would be more advanced and prosperous ." Hua Chunran said later.

" What does miss mean? Can you explain it ? " ask Zhao Xifeng as he looked at Hua Chunran full of curiosity. His eyes were full of curiosity. He felt attracted by Hua Chunran's words.

" the more people can read and write the more people can seek knowledge by reading books. The more you read books the more smart and knowledgeable people become. Smart people will try to develop themselves for the better and they will learn and master various skills.."

Hua Chunran paused for a moment and continued" If many people are smart and master a variety of skills and expertise then there will be more new healers, financial experts, government experts, traders who are reliable in managing their finances, etc, farmers who know how to cultivate the right land and various other skills."

" I'm sorry I still don't understand .." The usually clever Zhao Xifeng had a little trouble digesting Hua Chunran's words.

Hua Chunran fell silent, she also felt her words were too modern, so she tried to find words that were easier to understand.

" Ehm so this way, if we can already read and write we will become smarter, and capable . We can find a better job, for example, now rarely or no ordinary people can take the state examination, on average, most of the noble families or officials. As a result, people can only become people for the rest of their lives without being able to change their fate."

Hua Chunran paused for a moment to think again about the easily digestible words. More Zhao Xifeng he was very curious about Hua Chunran's words.

" If people become smart, they will also have the opportunity to take the state examination, if they can pass, of course their income will increase and can change their lives for the better and prosperous .The more people whose lives are prosperous, the country will be more prosperous. "

" But wouldn't it threaten the lives of the nobles, they would feel rivaled? " said Zhao Xifeng hesitated.

"If the country wants to advance they must not think only of the interests of one group ." Hua Chunran replied with a faint smile, she was happy to see Zhao Xifeng's enthusiasm.
