XXXIX. Hotta's Shattered View of Life (I)

Every morning at Dongpo Mountain Resort, it begins with the melodious ringing of the bell of Daxiangguo Temple.

When Jiang Shuiyuan heard the bell, he got up cleanly, put on a scholar's uniform with praise clothes, and carried out the most special morning exercise in his life in Taixue. As soon as he ran half a lap, he met the haunting Li Wanhe next to Dacheng Hall, so he had to stop and salute respectfully: "Mr. Li, you are also exercising?"

"Yes," Li Wanhe replied breathlessly while shaking his hands and stretching his legs: "Like us who study liberal arts, we must pay attention to two points, one is that all learning, after all, must rely on writings to speak. Like Confucius, Mencius, and Shakyamuni, if it weren't for their disciples and their followers who recorded their words and deeds in a timely manner, hundreds of thousands of years later, who would still know that there was such a person in history? The simplest example is the Qing Dynasty scholar Wang Chang, who was extremely knowledgeable and had a high status when he was alive, and could be called a first-rate scholar. However, because he did not have a first-class book that he could get his hands on, he was not bothered to mention him in a brief academic history. โ€

Jiang Shuiyuan knew that he was using words to stimulate himself, so that he could write out the paper on "Pipa Xing" and send it to her earlier, so he deliberately did not pick it up at the moment.

Li Wanhe didn't seem to expect Jiang Shuiyuan to take care of himself, and continued: "The second point is 'people can't be lifeless', this is a sentence in "The World Says New Words", the meaning you must know, that is, people must live a long life before they can be famous. In addition, if we have cultivated a large number of apprentices and grandchildren, not to mention whether they are excellent or not, at least there will be a large number of people who blow the conch and hold the stinky feet for your grandfather, right? Therefore, if you want to become famous, you must first live a long life. But if you want to live a long life, can you do it without exercising?"

Jiang Shuiyuan nodded: "It's not okay if you don't exercise." In that case, then I won't delay you-"

Li Wanhe continued to sigh with emotion: "Today's students, they can't get off the Internet at night and can't get up in the morning, they are just a waste person, what is the difference between being paralyzed in bed every day in the late Qing Dynasty and sucking hibiscus cream? Jiang Xiaoyou is good, he can even get up so early when he goes out to play, and he doesn't know where it is higher than those waste people!"

Jiang Shuiyuan deliberately twisted: "No way, I have a light sleep, and the bells of Daxiangguo Temple are noisy, so I can only get up and move first, and then go back to sleep later." โ€

Who knew that Li Wanhe didn't care about him at all, and continued to run along his own train of thought: "What are you going to do after breakfast later?"

"Shopping with classmates. โ€

"Then remember to accompany that little devil. โ€

"......" Jiang Shuiyuan really wanted to smack him with a sesame flower: Please, did you think before you spoke? Am I very familiar with you? Am I very familiar with that Hotta? Why should I accompany him, and I have to accompany him? I am not the childcare you paid for!

Immediately afterwards, Li Wanhe showed a mysterious smile: "Don't worry, I won't let you work in vain." As long as you accompany that little devil, I will ask Dongpo Villa to send you a set of hand-carved plates, imitation Song Dynasty craft brush printing of the Song Dynasty engraving book "Zizhi Tongjian", engraving and printing are fine, paper and ink are exquisite, the proofreading is rigorous, the words are large and sparse, it is definitely a rare elegant play in the study!"

I heard that the things sent were quite high-grade study and elegant toys, and Jiang Shuiyuan was a little moved.

It's not that he wants to collect and enjoy it,โ€”โ€” in fact he doesn't have any book collecting habits - but that "The Difficult History of Chinese Studies" is about to be published, but he has not yet expressed his gratitude to Mr. Han Xianru, who carefully helped him review the manuscript and proposed revisions. This set of Ying Song engravings "Zizhi Tongjian" seems to be a good gift? Not to mention shopping with Yuya Hotta, maybe he can learn a few more sentences of daily conversation? So after thinking for a while, he agreed: "Okay!"

Jiang Shuiyuan ran a few more laps, and then played Tai Chi before slowly pacing back.

Hearing the sound of Emizumi opening the door, Hotta Yuya sat up on the bed in a daze. Jiang Yuanyuan greeted with a smile, "Hotta, Hotta!" (Hotta-kun, good morning!)

"Early!" Yu Hotta replied casually. Then while getting dressed slowly, he asked, "Jiang (ใ“ใ†)ใ•ใ‚“, today ใฎๅคฉๆฐ—ใฏใฉใ†ใงใ™ใ‹?" (Good morning!Jiang Jun, what's the weather like today?)

"Clear. ๅคฉๆฐ—ไบˆๅ ฑใซใ‚ˆใ‚‹ใจ,Todayใฏๅคใ„ใงใ™ใ€‚ (Sunny day.) According to the weather forecast, it will be hot today. ๏ผ‰

โ€œใใ†ใงใ™ใ‹ใ€‚ (That's right!)

Yuya Hotta always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't find it. I had to get up and wash up, and as soon as my teeth were halfway brushed, I ran out foaming at the mouth, shouting: "Jiang Jun, you were talking to me in Japanese just now?!"

โ€œใฏใ„ใ€‚ ใฉใ†ใ—ใŸใฎ?"(Yes.) What's wrong?)

Yuki Hotta's eyes widened: "But didn't you say yesterday that you had never been exposed to Japanese?"

"yes, I really haven't been exposed to it before. โ€

"Then what are you talking about now? Jiang Jun, just like Confucius said, 'People have no faith, and they don't know what they can do.'" Whether in the tide of heaven or in our mud, deception is not the proper character of a gentleman. โ€

Jiang Shuiyuan smiled: "Of course I won't deceive Hotta-kun. - When I said that I had never been exposed to Japanese before, I meant that I had not been exposed to it until I met Hotta-kun yesterday afternoon. But didn't I ask Hotta-kun about everyday Japanese conversation last night for a long time?"

"And then you'll be?" In Hotta's view, Emizumi's rhetoric is simply a fantasy.

Jiang Shuiyuan shook his head: "I can't say that I know, right? Strictly speaking, I just memorized the fifty-syllable diagram, as well as some daily conversations taught by Hotta-kun, and there are still 108,000 miles away from 'hui'! I hope that Hotta-kun can continue to teach today, and strive to strike while the iron is hot, so that I can learn the words, sentence patterns, and grammar commonly used in Japanese as soon as possible, and I will not be unable to communicate when I travel to the mud bomb in the future." โ€

Yuya Hotta said dreamily, "It only took you one night to memorize the fifty syllables and daily conversations! You must know that I am a mud bombard, and it took three months when I first learned this." As for learning Chinese Pinyin and Chinese dialogue later, it took two full semesters, and you only used one night!"

Just as some people are born to jump higher and run faster than others, there are always some people in this world who are more gifted in language to unite all mankind to build the Tower of Babel. For example, the famous Western philosopher Maxi is said to have started learning Russian at the age of 55, and after 6 months, he can read Russian articles and news reports proficiently. Another example is Liang Qichao in my country, who learned to read mud bomb books, read Japanese, and translate Japanese works in 5 monthsโ€”โ€”"

"They're 5 months, 6 months, and you're just one night!" exclaimed Yuya Hotta.

"But they are proficient in reading and can do translation work, and I can only have a few simple conversations!" Jiang Shuiyuan retorted vigorously, "Okay, let's go wash up quickly! Later, after breakfast, we will go shopping together and see the prosperity of the Great Song Dynasty together." (To be continued.) )
