Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Second Brother Tricked Me Again
The night in the mountains is deep and quiet, far and near, only a lone lamp in the hut is illuminated.
Now is the time of the autumn cold and heavy dew, although there are few mosquitoes, but after nightfall, it is cold. Guo Lin and Zhang Yue ate half a cake, and then Guo Lin lit a lamp to read.
Zhang Yue only read five or six pages at this time, and his eyelids were fighting up and down, and he really couldn't stand it.
Seeing this, Guo Lin said earnestly: "Senior brother, learning is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat, let's copy the book for a day, the homework must be pulled down, if you don't take advantage of this time to read, how is it good?" ”
Zhang Yue nodded and said, "Senior brother is right...... I saved ......"
Zhang Yue yawned twice as he spoke, and Guo Lin was speechless and helpless.
Zhang Yue read a few pages of the book again.
Guo Lin saw that Zhang Yue was unable to insist, and said bitterly: "I know that my junior brother is talented and intelligent, and he is ...... Don't forget to read, but blindly rely on talent, sooner or later it will be a useful day......"
Zhang Yue nodded and said, "What Senior Brother said is that the so-called talent made in heaven is the talent of one hundred and one and one hundred and ninety-nine hard work......"
"One hundred and one talents have one hundred and ninety-nine hard work...... Guo Lin said in his heart, the junior brother is really a genius, and any sentence is so profound.
Guo Lin said in his heart, yes, even though my junior brother is smarter than me, but I work hard, is it really worse than him?
Guo Lin said happily: "It's good that the junior brother can understand this reason, so ......"
How do you know that Zhang Yue said again: "However, the talent of one hundred and one is better than the hard work of one hundred and ninety-nine...... If it's not that piece of material, no matter how diligent you are, it's useless...... Senior brother, I'm tired, anyway, I've read more than a dozen pages of books, and I'm reciting while sleeping! ”
After speaking, Zhang Yue covered the book, walked to the collapse, closed his clothes and fell asleep.
Guo Lin was speechless for a long time as Zhang Yue's last words: "While sleeping and reciting, I have never heard of this method of calligraphy." ”
"Senior brother......" Guo Lin saw that Zhang Yue was already asleep between breathing, and he couldn't help but sigh at Zhang Yue's ability to lie down and fall asleep, "...... At least wash up before you go to bed...... It seems that the junior brother is really tired. ”
In fact, Guo Lin was not tired, so he left early in the morning to study the Zhang clan, copied the book for a day, and only went home at this hour, both physically and mentally exhausted. But Guo Lin understands that if the daily homework is pulled down, it is easy to become tired and lazy.
"Learning is like sailing against the current, and if you don't advance, you will retreat!"
Guo Lin encouraged himself, and when he was extremely tired, Guo Lin got up and took the cold water in the earthen basin and splashed his noodles......
Suddenly, the familiar taste ...... again
Why didn't the junior brother even let go of this pot in the corner......
Next.
The two brothers got up.
Zhang Yue saw Guo Lin with a tired look and asked, "Senior brother, are you okay?" Otherwise, you and I will take leave today. ”
Guo Lin waved his hand and said, "It's okay." I can still hold on, today we need to ask the fasting chief, how much was the settlement yesterday? The rules must be asked clearly everywhere, so as not to suffer when you get it. ”
"What Senior Brother said is extremely true, how many pages did Senior Brother copy yesterday?"
Guo Lin said: "Fifty-seven pages. ”
Zhang Yue was surprised: "That's one hundred and ninety-nine and a half dollars, two hundred dollars a day is okay!" ”
The local ordinary labor in Pucheng is 75 to 100 yuan a day, and it is only two or three times a month.
Guo Lin said in his heart, the junior brother is really good at counting.
Guo Lin smiled bitterly: "Although two hundred dollars a day is a lot, but it wastes schoolwork, and it really outweighs the loss." If it weren't for my father's illness, I wouldn't have been like this. I just hope to cure my father's illness as soon as possible and continue to study. ”
"Although the junior brother only has one dollar, let's ask today, a meal is not worth dozens of dollars!"
Zhang Yue said: "Senior brother, don't ask, the fast chief is clearly embarrassing me." He is what he says. ”
Guo Lin said: "Then you have to fight for reason, and you have to try it anyway." Hurry up, today I asked my mother to prepare a ring cake for us, let's eat while walking, so that we can save a meal. ”
The so-called ring cake is fried steamed dumplings in the north, but in the Tang Dynasty, it was a piece of cake with a hole in the center, which was hung on the bag with a rope. In this way, the southern part of the Song Dynasty still retains the title of the Tang Dynasty as a road food.
"Good! I'm going to get a bamboo tube to fetch water! Eat that dry mouth! ”
Guo Lin said casually: "Fetch more water, you have been a little hot lately!" ”
Zhang Yue took the bamboo tube and went to the tank to fetch water, while muttering to himself: "How does Senior Brother know that I am very hot? Could it be that Senior Brother is Gou Jian? ”
The two got up early in the morning and took an hour to reach the south peak.
As soon as the two arrived at the academy, they asked Zhang Heng about the payment yesterday. Zhang Heng said impatiently: "Why do you come to me about this matter, you go and ask the academic record." ”
In the Song Dynasty, the prince of the country had a fasting chief and a record of learning.
The position of the chief is similar to that of a university counselor, and the position of the student is similar to that of a teaching assistant, but the position of the chief of Taixue is held by the senior.
Where this set of methods came from, there is nowhere to verify.
It is said that when Fan Zhongyan Qingli was in the new policy, the reform of the Taixue system was taken from Hu Ming. Hu Ying is a famous Confucian in the world, but he is not an official, but he is also known as 'the teacher of the world in white clothes'.
Hu Ying once taught in Suzhou and Huzhou Prefecture, advocating that scholars should 'be able to use their bodies and minds', so his students were divided into 'Jingyi Zhai' and 'Zhishi Zhai', which created a precedent for teaching departments and disciplines, and advocated teaching students according to their aptitude.
Jing Yi Zhai specializes in the study of scriptures and meanings, and cultivates scholar-type talents.
In addition to scriptures, it is also necessary to learn martial arts, literature and art, water conservancy, political affairs, etc., and specialize in cultivating talents for officials and politicians.
Fan Zhongyan reformed the law and reformed Taixue, not only quoting Hu Ming's Suhu teachings, but also letting his two sons Fan Chunyou and Fan Chunren worship Hu Ying as a teacher.
After Fan Zhongyan, Ouyang Xiu likes to select talents under Hu Ming. At that time, the Ministry of Rites paid tribute, and Hu Ming's disciples often lived in four or five. When Wang Anshi changed the law, he also liked to use Hu Ming's disciples as the backbone of the change.
How famous was Hu Ying at that time?
Some people describe 'speech and demeanor, and you can know Hu Jin's disciples without asking.' Mr. Yu, a scholar, you can tell that it is Hu Ying without asking.
As for using students to manage Taixue and achieve the purpose of practicing affairs, so as to cultivate talents for managing affairs in the future, it is also the purpose of Hu Ming's teaching.
This move reminded Zhang Yue of the student union of later generations. When I was in college, I mentioned that no one would scold the student union, but after scolding, if I take power in the future, will I do a better job than the person I scolded at the beginning?
As for the academic record mentioned by Zhang Heng, it was Zhang Yue that day, another student when Guo Lin was interviewed.
Xuelu looked at the two of them and smiled: "I have seen your transcription yesterday today, and there are few mistakes and omissions, which is very good!" ”
"Thank you for the compliment."
Xuelu said to Guo Lin: "You copied fifty-seven pages, and since you agreed with Mr. for three and a half dollars a page, this is one hundred and ninety-nine and a half dollars." ”
After finishing speaking, Xuelu opened an account book, wrote the words one hundred and ninety-nine and a half coins in Guo Lin's name, and then said: "After three days, you can settle the day, and the first three days are counted as bets." Do you have any objections? ”
"Everything is commanded by the book."
Xuelu looked at Zhang Yue again and said, "I heard that the chief of the Zhai said that you can convert two dollars into one dollar for a lunch?" ”
Zhang Yue said: "That's true. ”
Xuelu said: "How much money can you have in such a day?" But it's a loss. But also follow the rules. I see that you copied more than one page yesterday, and you and I are worth two pages, which is counted as seventy-two dollars. ”
Zhang Yue and Guo Lin couldn't help but be surprised when they glanced at each other.
"Thank you." Guo Lin replied on behalf of Zhang Yue.
Zhang Yue also hugged his fists and thanked him.
Xuelu said with a smile: "The matter of lunch is also decided by the chief of the fast, I will give you some relief here, but you don't thank me, I also look at your few typos and omissions, which can be regarded as saving me worry." In addition, the accounts of Xuetian are even complicated, and I also lack a helper here, and when the time comes, it may take you a few days, which will not be recorded in the salary. ”
Zhang Yue thought to himself that this was convenient for others, but also for himself: "In the future, please learn to tell me." ”
Xuelu nodded.
Guo Lin asked, "Haven't you asked for a high surname yet?" ”
"Don't dare to be, Zhang Cai is."
Zhang Yue didn't remember the famous figures in history, it's a pity.
Xuelu Zhang Cai looked at Zhang Yue again: "Yes, I looked at the family yesterday, you are the brother of Zhang Xu in the county school?" ”
Guo Lin looked at Zhang Yue in surprise, and Zhang Yue admitted: "That's true, he is my second brother, and I am the third in the family, isn't Xuelu familiar with my brother?" ”
Zhang Cai smiled: "It's really Zhang Sanlangjun, disrespectful and disrespectful." I'm not familiar with Brother Ling, but I'm also a friend of several faces. When Chen Lingjun was in Ren, he brought the county school students to Nanfeng to gather with the disciples of his own tribe. ”
"That day is the Ninety-Nine Yellow Flower Festival, our students and county students are all sticking dogwoods on their heads, drinking osmanthus wine together, chanting poems and songs, throwing pots and archery, it is really unpleasant."
At that time, the two teachers were there, and the disciples on both sides couldn't help but have a heart for the top and bottom, so they took advantage of the wine to show their talents in the name of learning from each other. At that time, Brother Ru was out of the limelight, impressing everyone with his literary talents, and even throwing pots was overwhelming. Thinking about Erlang's demeanor in the past, he was heroic but a little frivolous, but he was indeed a talented man, and he was convinced at that time! ”
Zhang Yue couldn't help but imagine what happened to the second brother back then, everyone drank freely during the Double Ninth Festival, in front of Chen Xiang and Mr. Dayjintang, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy took advantage of the drunkenness to overwhelm all the young talents in the county, and it was also a very happy thing to think about.
But Zhang Yue thought about it, the second brother was in the limelight on other people's territory, wouldn't he be hated by others.
Sure True Zhang Cai continued: "If it weren't for the fact that you were a little similar to Brother Ling, I wouldn't care to look at your family. ”
However, Ziping has always been mindful of this, he has always regarded himself very highly, but except for Brother Ling, he has never lost to others in his life. You'd better not tell him that you're Zhang Xu's younger brother. ”
Zhang Yue was stunned for a while, it can really be said that he was shot while lying down. My second brother is gone, and I still have to continue to pit my brother.
It's also strange that Chen Xiang has nothing to do with the county school disciples to learn something, doesn't this clearly smash people's fields? If his second brother was not born in the Shu clan, he should have studied in the Zhang clan school, but he went to the county school. Now a child of the Shu clan has picked all of you, so where can the disciples of this family put their faces, this is really embarrassing.
Ma Dan, it seems that this beam is settled. My second brother is really going anywhere.
PS: Chen Xiangshi's two poems "Nine Days and Pucheng County Students Visit Nanfeng Courtyard"
On the ninth day of the Yellow Flower Festival, the new bottle of green ants floats. The pitcher is playing the drum, and the singer seems to be a businessman. The sons are well-dressed, and the first Confucianism is musical. The scenery of Xiyan Mountain is good, and it is sunny and autumn for you.
"Huangyou returned to Nanfeng Temple in Pucheng County in the spring of the fourth year because of nostalgia"
Re-visit Nanfeng Temple and think about a nine-day tour. Where does the yellow flower go, and who will stay in the snow. Bo Eun 3,000 miles, streamer 40 autumns. When I came back to see the sons, I begged each other under the forest.
