XXXV. Disappointing students

Jiang Shuiyuan replied disapprenousively: "If you have seen it, you will naturally know." ”

"You've seen them all?"

"Can't you see it?"

The man was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "Of course you can watch it." Not only can you read it, but also classics like the Four Books and the First Four Histories that condense the essence of the thoughts of the Chinese ancestors should be read by everyone. It's just that many people don't read the books that must be read and are worth reading now, but they like to go through those who are obscenities and thieves, and they are really ruined by Huang Zhong and thundered in the clay kettle!"

Jiang Shuiyuan was not interested in listening to a middle-aged uncle playing cosplay in front of him, so he hurriedly urged: "What about the next question?"

The man straightened out his reasoning and calmly sat down behind the case: "Next question? The young scholar who has read the first four histories and knows Cui Shi and Takikawa Ziyan does not need to take the third question, and will be promoted directly to the upper house." By the way, what's your name, and what grade is you in?"

"What's the matter? Dongpo Mountain Resort still needs to ask for customers' personal information?"

The man waved his hand again and again, "No, no, it's just my personal problem." ”

"Since it's a personal question, can I choose not to answer?" Jiang Shuiyuan bowed his hand slightly after speaking: "Generally speaking, the main reason why I don't remember the other party's name after introducing myself is that I feel that the other party is not important enough. What's more, the eggs are delicious, so why bother to know the hens that lay the eggs? I'm just here to try the Taixue steamed buns, so there's no need to get to the bottom of it, right?"

"Then I'm really rude, in fact, I'm-" Before the man finished speaking, Jiang Shuiyuan had already crossed the middle gate proudly and walked towards the Chonghua Hall behind. The man hurriedly shouted, "Little friend, please stay!"

It's okay if he doesn't scream, Jiang Shuiyuan heard him say, "Little friend, please stay", and the classic saying of the great decay god Shen Gongbao immediately appeared in his heart, and he was so frightened that he took three steps and made two steps, and disappeared into the depths of Taixue in minutes, leaving only the person sighing in place.

Taixue is located on the periphery of the villa, which is not prosperous, and there are few people who like to go to Taixue to cultivate their sentiments and survive the doctor's examination at the door these years, so the whole Taixue is deserted, all kinds of precious flowers and trees open and fall spontaneously, and occasionally the blue fairy flycatcher falls on the verdant pine and bamboo and chirps a few times, breaking the silence in the courtyard.

Jiang Shuiyuan walked around Taixue, and finally found the special Xunli Zhai in the northeast corner.

The door of Xunli Zhai was open, and a young man in a white shirt could be vaguely seen kneeling upright behind the bookcase, reading an ancient book bound with great reverence, the paper of which had been slightly yellowed, apparently very old. The boy read very attentively and devotedly, chanting all the time, and he didn't notice the water source standing outside the door.

Jiang Shuiyuan listened to a few words, and knew what kind of book this young man was reading, and a few smiles couldn't help but appear on his face. coughed lightly at the moment, and then slowly walked into Xunli Zhai: "Uninvited guests come uninvited, disturb Brother Yaxing, and I hope to forgive your sins!"

When the man heard the sound, he quickly got up and bowed deeply to the water source of the river at 90 degrees: "There are distinguished guests coming, and the contemptible people have not gone out to greet them, and it is I who is rude." Come in!"

As soon as he spoke, Jiang Shuiyuan immediately heard that his accent was a little awkward, obviously not like my Tianchao, and asked casually: "Brother Ren is from Annam, Nihong, or Goryeo?"

"Contemptible people come from mud bombardment. ”

Jiang Shuiyuan stroked his hand and praised: "Brother Ren is actually thousands of miles away, from Yingzhou to Danzhou to visit Dongpo Villa, it is really Yaxing, and it can also be seen that Brother Ren has a deep love for Dongpo monks!"

The man replied with a smile, "The contemptible person is from Otsu City, Shiga Prefecture, and his name is Yuya Hotta, and he studied at the prefectural Otsu High School. Because Otsu and Danzhou are sister cities, the school will choose this place every year for school trips. I have always admired the customs and customs of the country on the tide, so I am elegant, go to the Dongpo Villa to experience the peerless elegance of the Great Song Dynasty, and I hope that Your Excellency will teach you more if you don't understand the place!"

Jiang Shuiyuan shook his head: "I don't dare to teach you." I believe that those who can recite Su poems must also know the Song Dynasty very well, so how can they say that they are vassals and elegant?"

"Do you know that I just read Su Shi?" said Hotta, who was also surprised.

Jiang Shuiyuan pointed to his ear: "I accidentally heard a sentence or two just now. I'm sorry, I almost forgot to introduce myself, my name is Jiang Shuiyuan, I am from Huai'an Mansion in Jiangbei, and I am also a high school student. When you meet for the first time, please advise. ”

"Each other!" Hotta Yuya also bowed deeply again, and then said with admiration on his face: "It turns out that Jiang Jun is from the hometown of Commander Sun, no wonder he is so beautiful, it is really a blessing!"

After Jiang Shuiyuan sat down, he asked, "How does Hotta-kun feel about coming to Danzhou for a study trip?"

After a little thought, Yuya Hotta said frankly: "The scenery of Danzhou is naturally excellent, and the guests are also very enthusiastic, which makes the contemptible people feel like they are at home." It's just that the contemptible people like the ancient poems of the Heavenly Tide Kingdom, and they actually want to discuss their feelings about Bai Lotian and Su Dongpo's works with them, but they don't know why, they either talk about him left and right, or they just talk about it hastily, so they are inevitably slightly disappointed!"

"What works did you talk to them about Bai Juyi and Su Shi?"

"They are all very famous poems, such as Bai's "Swallow Building", "Five Songs", "Sauvignon Blanc", "Shangyang White-haired Man", Su's "Youmeitang Heavy Rain", "Mo Shanghua", "Fanying". ”

Jiang Shuiyuan couldn't help laughing: "I'll just say! They haven't read any of the poems you mentioned, so how can I discuss my feelings with you?"

"Ahh

According to the statistics of modern scholars, excluding the "Book of Songs" and "Lisao", there are about 9,000 surviving poems from the pre-Qin to the Sui Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty, which is known as the peak, is more than 44,000 poems, and the Song Dynasty, where the Dongpo monks are located, is conservatively estimated to have 200,000 poems, not to mention the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty. It is precisely because there are so many outstanding poets and poems, and everyone's energy is limited, and they have to study mathematics, physics, chemistry and other sciences, so they can only selectively study the most outstanding poems of each poet. There's no way around it!"

"I see. Although Yuya Hotta nodded in agreement, the disappointment in his tone could not be concealed.

Jiang Shuiyuan said: "What's so disappointing about this? Middle school students only know a few poems by Bai Juyi and Su Shi, and it is very normal for them not to have a good understanding of poetry. It's like someone who has liked your muddy haiku since childhood, and then went on a study trip to your school in high school to discuss with you the inheritance and development of Oshima Tateta's haiku to Matsuo Basho and Eifukumonin, and I guess most of the students in your school will not be able to answer it, right?"

Hotta Yu also thought about it, and then nodded: "That's true." However, we have all kinds of reading clubs, such as those who specialize in studying Matsuo Basho haiku, such as those who specialize in studying Su poems, and those who specialize in studying "Commentary on the Water Classic", which includes professors, college students, ordinary staff, middle school students, and retired grandfathers, and everyone gathers once every two weeks or months to study the text word by word, and then the reading club can last for years, or even decades. So, even if you can't find someone in school who knows a lot about Tatsuta Oshima Haiku, there will always be a few people who know it very well!"

Jiang Shuiyuan said: "I have such a large population and such a deep heritage, so naturally there will be no shortage of scholars like you said." ”

"Really?" said Hotta, too.

"Of course!" replied Jiang Shuiyuan in the affirmative.

Hotta Yuya also blinked and said, "In that case, then why is there no one in the Dongpo Villa who is said to have hired the most famous Song historians to study and build it more familiar with Su Shi than me? )
