Chapter 024: Distress
Chen Xianyuan seemed to remember that there were other people in the house at this time, his eyes swept over Zhuang Shuqing, and finally fell on Zhuang Shuhan. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
His eyes are clear and firm, his waist is straight, as if he can pick up all the tribulations on one shoulder, well, yes, a scholar should have this strength.
"Report your name."
Zhuang Shuhan stepped forward, and what he did was not a student ceremony, but a ceremony for juniors to meet their seniors, "Zhuang Shuhan has seen Mr. Chen. ”
"How old are the years?"
"Ten years old."
"Did Shucheng tell you that you must take a small test to enter the school, and you can only enter the school if you pass the test?"
"Yes, Brother Zhang said it."
Chen Xianyuan bowed slightly, his face was not obvious, but he was very fond of his humble attitude in his heart, "How many books have you read?" ”
"The three-character scripture, the surnames of hundreds of families, and the thousand-character text have all been read, and the four books are also slightly involved."
"Oh?" Chen Xianyuan became interested, "Can you understand? ”
"I don't dare to explain it, but my mother taught it word by word on the sickbed."
Chen Xianyuan only thought that his father had passed away, and it was his mother who pulled him up with hard work, so he didn't mention his father's words, "You have a good mother." ”
"Yes, Shuhan has the best mother and the best eldest sister in the world."
Chen Xianyuan bent his fingers and knocked on the table, from the three-character scripture to the hundred family names, and then to the thousand-character text, seeing that he answered easily, he took it to heart, and turned over the Analects on the desk, "Gou Zhi is benevolent, and there is no evil, how to understand." ”
"As long as you develop benevolence, you will not do bad things."
"Those who know are not confused, those who are benevolent are not worried, and those who are brave are not afraid."
"The wise will not be deceived, the virtuous will not be sorrowful, and the brave will not be afraid."
"Do not do unto others as you would have them do unto you."
"Do not inflict on others what you do not want to accept."
“……”
The two fought back and forth several times, from the simplest to the back, gradually increasing in difficulty, Chen Xianyuan's eyes became brighter and brighter, and his breathing became a little heavier.
Analects, Mencius, University, even the mean did not let go, Zhuang Shuhan answered happily, and left his sister's advice behind for a while.
Ever since he knew that he was going to come to the private school, he had been thinking about it in his heart, for fear that he would not learn enough and that he would not be able to answer the questions asked by his husband, so as soon as he opened his mouth to ask, he cheered up, and he did not dare to share half of the snacks, for fear that his answer would not be good enough, and his husband would not accept him and disappoint his sister.
He hadn't been to school, so he didn't know how surprising his performance was, because he had his back to his sister, and he couldn't see the worry in his sister's eyes.
But Zhuang Shuqing couldn't stop it, compared with the usual silence, Shuhan at this time seemed to be glowing, as if he finally had a place to use, and he couldn't wait to pour out all the brains he knew.
Thankfully, there is no one else here.
Zhang Shucheng is not a talkative person, so he shouldn't talk nonsense, as for Mr. Chen, whose goatee is trembling in front of him...... As long as he is not the kind of person with corrupt morals, once Shu Han becomes his student, he will only protect him, not kill him.
Being able to teach students is the lifelong pursuit of these teachers.
Chen Xianyuan has already stood up, but the problems are still one after another.
And Zhuang Shuhan, the more he answered, the more neat he became.
After a while, Chen Xianyuan laughed out loud, "Hahaha, I accepted this student, free of restraint, if it is inconvenient for you to come and go every day, I have an empty house here, you can move in after packing up, are you willing?" ”
The heart that had been hanging for several days finally fell back to its original place, Zhuang Shuhan looked back at his sister, "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. is not far from here." ”
Chen Xianyuan got such a good seedling, he couldn't wait for anything good to be held in front of him, how could he be willing to waste his time on the road, "Don't underestimate the winter in Huiyuan Mansion, the wind blows and your bones hurt, why do you have to suffer this?" If you get sick, it's you who will be delayed. ”
Zhuang Shuhan shook his head firmly, "Mr. I don't know, the student only has one sister to rely on each other, and he is still in the filial piety period, not only can he not rest assured that his sister is not enough, but also I have a lot of inconvenience, Mr. is kind, and the student remembers it." ”
Chen Xianyuan likes him more and more, he has not seen talented students, but he has focused on his studies since he was a child, but his mind is unbearable, there are many such people, even after entering the official career, he can't go far, Zhuang Shuhan's sensibility makes him feel that he has picked up a treasure.
"Good, good, good." After saying hello three times, Chen Xianyuan pointed to the statue of Confucius and said, "Kowtow to the holy master first." ”
Zhuang Shuhan turned to look at his sister.
Zhuang Shuqing nodded to him, and he knelt down.
Then, Chen Xianyuan shook his robe and sat down, without being reminded, Zhuang Shuhan bowed respectfully to him, and then took the tea handed by the scholar and offered it with both hands, "Mr. drink tea." ”
Chen Xianyuan touched his beard and laughed, used the tea as wine, and drank it all.
Fortunately, it was not boiling water, Zhuang Shuqing secretly thought that seeing that Mr. Chen was teaching Shuhan students what to pay attention to, she quietly left and brought the prepared gift over.
Chen Xianyuan was originally ready to exempt this new student from the restraint of cultivation, but seeing that she was ready, she accepted it, the eldest sister is the mother, this sister is very qualified, Shuhan can be so good, and this sister should also be credited.
"In the future, Shuhan will entrust Mr. to teach, if he has done something wrong, please ask Mr. to guide him, Mr. is like a father, and if he achieves something in the future, it will also be Mr.'s work."
If you don't do it well, just say this, Zhuang Shuqing won't say it, if Mr. does this, she might be angry, her younger brother she doesn't know yet, and she is very obedient.
She didn't notice at all that her mentality at this time was that her children were all good, and if there was a mistake, it was someone else's fault, just like thousands of parents.
Chen Xianyuan gave him a handful after receiving her salute, "Don't worry, I will do my best to teach him to become a talent." ”
Zhuang Shuqing gave another salute, "Although I am a woman, I also know that there is a saying in the world that I am killed, Shuhan is only ten years old, and it is really not appropriate to be too top-notch, so I ......"
"I understand what you mean." Chen Xianyuan touched his beard and shook his head disapprovingly, "It's a mediocre talent not to be envied, it's better for him to bear these earlier, the student sharpens his head and squeezes it up, in the final analysis, he still wants to be an official, but before becoming an official, he needs to learn to be a man first, if he can't cope with the tilting between the windows, what is an official?" I know your maintenance of Shuhan, but a man should have the courage to face all the wind and rain, instead of being protected in a warm and comfortable house, that way, it won't grow long. ”
Zhuang Shuqing had nothing to argue, in her inherent thinking, a ten-year-old child should grow up comfortably, but she forgot that here, a ten-year-old is already a little adult.
"Sister, I can handle it, don't worry." Zhuang Shuhan took a step closer and took the rare initiative to hold his sister's hand, and Zhuang Shuqing found that the child's not very soft hands were not smaller than hers.
"You've promised me to take the children's exam next year, and it's only a matter of time before I come out."
But you can only be stable for a day later, Zhuang Shuqing patted his hand, and said no more, if the child wants to grow up, how can she stop it.
"Take the children's exam next year?" Chen Xianyuan was stunned for a moment, and then nodded thoughtfully, "You have a solid foundation, I'll give you a good catch, but I can't give it a try." ”
Zhang Shucheng's forehead twitched, he didn't expect Mr. Chen to agree to Shuhan to participate in the children's test at such a young age, you know, he wanted to get off the township test as early as two years ago, and Mr. pressed him again and again, just to let him learn more solidly, which is also what Mr. Chen has always agreed, why did it change when he got to Shuhan?
After entering school tomorrow, several people left the Chen family.
"Brother Zhang, thank you today, it's not good to delay your time any longer, I'll walk back with Shuhan, and he has to be familiar with this road first."
Zhang Shucheng glanced at the two sisters and brothers, and didn't talk nonsense, got on the wheel, hit the horse and left.
The weather is already a little cooler.
Walking on the streets full of ancient charm, there are no fast two wheels, three wheels and four wheels, after getting used to such a slow-paced life, Zhuang Shuqing enjoys it very much, "If the shop business is good, my sister will buy a carriage for you, and you will be less affected by the cold when you go to and from the private school in winter." ”
Zhuang Shuhan opened his mouth and wanted to refuse, but when he thought about it, if he really had spare money to buy a carriage, it would be convenient for his sister to go anywhere in the future, as for him, he would never use it, he had suffered so much in the past year, and now he can't be raised with good food and drink.
It is easy to go from simplicity to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to simplicity, he can't give himself that opportunity.
"I've inquired, the children's test is divided into the county test, the government test and the hospital test three, the county test has to go back to Liangshan, you are still a child, in addition to the people in the same village, you have to find a student to escort, the people in the same village are easy, the uncle should be very willing to help this, I don't know if Mr. Chen has any students, even if not, it is not difficult for him to find one, you behave well, he should not embarrass you in such things, but we are afraid that we will not be able to hide the uncle's affairs in Huiyuan Mansion. (http://.)。 ”
"What if you know? Uncle will only be happier, the dealer should not say the student, that is, the show has not been out for several years, and if it goes on like this, what is the difference between the dealer and the ordinary family. ”
Zhuang Shuqing was surprised, "Uncle told you?" ”
"Well, I went to the study to be diligent in those days, and my uncle would often encourage me to read hard."
No wonder the uncle would value their two sisters and brothers so much, I thought she was doing well, but it turned out that the uncle valued Shuhan more.
No matter what, as long as the uncle supports it, he won't stop him from coming to a convenient place if he needs to.
"Book Cold ......"
Zhuang Shuqing was about to answer, when he heard a commotion, and then the sound of horses' hooves, a carriage was stimulated by something, and dragged the carriage like crazy, screaming and running around.
Zhuang Shuqing's first reaction was to push her younger brother away, inertia made her take a step back, she wanted to run but only felt that her legs and stomach were weak and she couldn't move a bit.
The horse was very fast, and it was in front of him in the blink of an eye, Zhuang Shuqing had never been a person who accepted his fate, so he rolled on the spot, and he avoided it, and his body was hot and painful.
I thought that I had finally escaped, but at this moment the horse let out a long roar, and the man stood up, shifted in a different direction, and began to run again.
And the place where Zhuang Shuqing, who hadn't had time to stand up yet, was lying in this direction.
