Chapter 4: Teaching by Word and Deed

After the birthday banquet that day, Wang Xuanjue was left at her grandfather's house, first, the old man was reluctant to give up his granddaughter, and second, Liu Yun and Wang Zhouyang were too busy with their work and had no time to take care of her. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Wang Xuanjue always remembered that he was brought up by his grandfather in his previous life, and now it seems that it should have started at this time!

Actually, Wang Xuanjue really missed a lot of things in his previous life. For example, the accumulation of knowledge, and also, her grandfather!

Old Man Liu teaches Chinese and history at university, these two subjects may already be very unpopular majors in modern universities, but in the eighties they were very enthusiastic subjects for most students, and Old Master Liu is the best in this major!

For decades, the students taught by the old man are not all over the world, but there are two outstanding figures in all walks of life who are his students. Famous editors and editors-in-chief of magazines, screenwriters in film companies or studios, professors or directors in universities, general managers of listed companies, and even some famous directors at that time have also listened to his classes, of course, there are also many people in the political arena! These people have always kept in touch with the old man, and they will also bring their families to visit him during the New Year's holidays. In the past, people's teacher-student relationship was maintained in this way, and they were also teachers! Friends! Father!

But Wang Xuanjue in his previous life failed to take advantage of these opportunities to accumulate contacts for the future. When she was a child, whether her grandfather taught her to read and write, or taught her to play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, it was as if she wanted her life, and she always tried her best to get by, but in the end she didn't even learn a skin. I didn't think there was anything when I was young, but when I went to college later, my child realized what a precious thing he had missed back then, but it was too late to regret it at that time!

Sitting at the table and carefully copying the "Orchid Pavilion Collection Preface" arranged by her grandfather, although she was a little impatient and impatient, she had been suppressing this emotion. Wang Xuanjue solemnly warned himself: In this life, we must not make the mistakes of the previous life, all the problems developed in the previous life must be eradicated one by one, and we must not let these negative factors affect the previous life and harm this life again! Never!

It is said that habits are not easy to develop, and once formed, they will follow you for a lifetime! For this sentence, no one will have a deeper understanding than Wang Xuanjue, just like the current impatience and impatience, which have always affected her in her previous life, even if she is reborn, it is still affecting her!

wrote one after another, kept writing, and gradually wrote more and more smoothly, Wang Xuanjue felt that the impatience and impatience in his heart seemed to be somewhat eased. Knowing that this was a little effective in getting rid of bad diseases, Wang Xuanjue was very happy, and wrote another "Lanting Collection Preface" before putting down the brush. Looking at the more than a dozen calligraphy words in his hand, Wang Xuanjue couldn't tell the good from the bad at all, there was no way, the kung fu hadn't arrived home yet, so he had to take it to his grandfather for a review!

There was a game of chess on the stone table in the small garden behind the house, and my grandfather and my uncle's cousin Liu Yanshi were playing against each other. Grandpa holds blacks, cousin plays white chess, Nuo's big chessboard is full of blacks, only a few white chess pieces are still dying, even Wang Xuanjue, who knows nothing about Go, knows that there is no suspense about the outcome of the game, but why hasn't my grandfather ended this game of chess? In other words, why hasn't my cousin thrown in the towel?

After more than ten minutes, my cousin finally stopped falling and said dejectedly: "No more, no more, I admit defeat!" ”

And my grandfather just smiled lightly, picked up the white pieces in his cousin's chess bowl and seemed to fall randomly on the chessboard, and in an instant, the white chess showed a trace of vitality. Wang Xuanjue didn't know the doorway inside, but Liu Yanshi knew very well that she didn't play chess seriously and was seen by her grandfather!

"Chess is like life, sometimes the reason why you can't get out of a desperate situation is just because you haven't done your best and thought enough!" It seems to be said casually, but in fact, every word is heart-wrenching.

Grandfather's words not only made Liu Yanshi's ears red, but also made Wang Xuanjue fall into contemplation and recall all kinds of things in his previous life. Perhaps, as her grandfather said, in her previous life, she did not have the opportunity to change her predicament, but she chose an easier path.

Liu Yanshi is six years older than Wang Xuanjue, and at the age of nine, she can already distinguish the hidden meaning of some adults' words, she looked at the old man and whispered: "I'm sorry! Grandfather! I was wrong! ”

"It's good to know that you're wrong, but you have to know what's wrong, and don't make a second mistake next time you encounter the same situation!" After all, she is his own granddaughter, and she is still young, and the old man knows that he can't be too harsh on her, and besides, education is not in a hurry, so he waved her hand and let her go out to play!

As soon as he saw that his cousin had gone out, Wang Xuanjue hurriedly handed the stack of words in his hand to his grandfather for review, and said coquettishly in his mouth: "Grandpa, change it next time, I can't write a lot of words about this!" ”

took Wang Xuanjue's words and looked at them carefully, there were only six pieces of paper in total, but the old man looked at them for more than ten minutes, and then spread out the six pieces of paper one by one on the stone table. At this time, he didn't hold her anymore, but let her stand next to the stone table, Wang Xuanjue knew that this was her grandfather preparing to educate her.

"This one is supposed to be written for the first time, the handwriting is sloppy and jerky, and it is nearly two-thirds wrong!" Then he held up the first sheet of paper with one hand, pointed to the second sheet with the other, and said, "This one was written for the second time, and there is no improvement over the first one except that it is less wrong!" Then skip the third and fourth sheets, pick up the fifth piece of paper directly, and look at Wang Xuanjue, "This is the fifth time I wrote it, do you see any changes yourself?" With that, he held up the first and fifth sheets of paper and put them in front of Wang Xuanjue to look at her.

There is still a big difference between the two sheets, and the first one is sloppy and full of typos. And the fifth, in addition to the typo, most of the typos are missing, and the handwriting is also much smoother and neater. Wang Xuanjue knew that this was written after she calmed down, so is this the purpose of her grandfather asking her to copy?

Wang Xuanjue didn't speak for a long time, and the old man didn't expect her to say one, two, three.

He put the two pieces of paper in his hand back in place, and pulled Wang Xuanjue to his side, "The scribbled handwriting is your heart is not right, and the writing is not smooth enough, that is, you have not found the right way, you don't think enough, there are too many typos, you don't observe carefully enough, in short, you don't care!" After a short pause and a sip of water, the old man continued: "But there is no progress in the first to fourth sheets, except for the reduction of typos, which proves that you have not been writing carefully except for careful observation!" Absent-minded, impetuous, this is your mistake in the first four sheets, but from the fifth you began to improve, less impetuous, more calm and calm, so the words began to look good! ”

Wang Xuanjue deeply believes in his grandfather's analysis, indeed, these problems are the true portrayal of his own writing.

Looking at Wang Xuanjue's serious appearance, the old man was very pleased, and he said to her earnestly: "The Preface to the Lanting Collection is a little more difficult for you, but I asked you to write it not to embarrass you, but to let you have a higher starting point." In the future, grandpa will not have much time to accompany you, but there are still a lot of things that have not been able to teach you, those simple things even if I don't tell you you will understand in the future, but these difficult and obscure things If you don't teach you the truth of doing things, I'm afraid that no one will want to teach you in the future, and I'm afraid that you will have to take more detours in the future! ”

Wang Xuanjue knew that this was an expression of her grandfather's love for her. She didn't know if her grandfather had said these words to her in her previous life, but she must not have listened to it or remembered it, so she made her life in her previous life so difficult and tortuous, everything was her own fault, no one is to blame, and she is not qualified to blame others!

Leaning on his grandfather's arms and not speaking, what life motto can a three-year-old child say? You can only answer with silence!
