Relying solely on the style of this blonde boy at this time, if he had been replaced by such a harsh master, he would have dragged people down and beaten half to death—and so on because the slave secretly read a book, he would have been expelled from the country and even avenged his family. The owner of the snow what grievances will never be in the serious drama, and only the messy legends of some down-and-out literati dare to write.

Even if Emperor Taizu reaffirmed the Song system, there is no longer such a rule as the law of slaves and maids in the Tang Dynasty compared to livestock, but even if a non-permanent contract is made, the slaves hired to work at home are still not considered human in the eyes of most masters.

However, Zhang Shou certainly signed a contract with the blonde boy Wu Dawei, but he had seen too much of this kid reading books and seeing selfless scenes in the public school, so when he saw Zhu Ying's angry appearance, he chuckled disapprovingly: "Don't look at it, you get angry when you see it, you just need to think that this kid is the best person to translate those Fanbang sutras, you can figure it out." ”

Zhu Ying's eyes were very sharp, and at this time, she also found that what the other party was looking at was a book like a book from heaven, and she immediately snorted lightly: "What's so great about those Fanbang things, how can they compare to the "New Edition of Ge's Arithmetic" co-authored by you and Grandpa Ge?" ”

"I can't say that, the so-called "Ge's New Compilation of Arithmetic" originally had both the wisdom of those arithmetic masters of the past dynasties and the wisdom of the sages of Fanbang, where is the credit of my own person? Moreover, it is far from finished, and if the students of Jiuzhangtang are eager to learn and progress in the future, they may not be able to push this sutra to a higher level. ”

I think that Zhang Shou didn't want to be greedy for heaven, but felt that his age and qualifications could not convince the public, so he borrowed the name of Ge Yong and made a package of modern mathematics with Ge's arithmetic and pushed it on the market. Now that he had seen the Latin edition of Euclid's Geometry, with a number of other books on Latin texts that he couldn't read, he was glad that he had foresight.

Don't look at whether this book can be translated, it seems that you can only hope for this blonde boy who doesn't know whether it's reliable or not, but in the Yuan Dynasty, there was still a translation of the "Geometric Original", even if it was said to be a Semu person, then in the current dynasty where merchant ships traveled all over the world, once they searched with all their might, and if they couldn't find it, they would cultivate themselves, would it really be that there was no translation of Latin all the time?

Besides, Euclid's book is not necessarily only available in Latin, but certainly in Arabic. As his fame grew, of course, people with a heart could find the source of what he was teaching now, and sooner or later they would have to find fault in this regard.

How can he show clues little by little, and have Ge Yong, the Taishi's endorsement, and then the emperor and many opponents make up for him, and he has inherited the non-mainstream old gentlemen who have traveled overseas, and he has an overseas inheritance to save trouble?

And between Zhang Shou and Zhu Ying talking, the blonde boy who was immersed in reading a book finally suddenly burst out with joy - of course, it was a sentence that none of them could understand. After all, Zhang Shou is powerless for languages other than English, except for saying words and phrases in certain languages.

But at least his reaction was much faster than Zhu Ying's stiff head at this time: "Wu Dawei, what are you talking about?" ”

This time, the blonde boy finally came back to his senses, and saw that the bachelor Zhang who had brought him back as a scholar stood side by side with a gorgeously dressed woman, and the bachelor had a smile on his face, but the woman next to him was glaring at him with a sullen face, obviously not so happy. At this moment, he immediately realized that he had made an old mistake again.

He was in the public school that was in name only, and he often wandered while working, and was jointly sued by several gentlemen, so Bachelor Zhang came forward to bring him back as a scholar. At this moment, he was afraid that he would annoy the bachelor's master again when he first arrived, so he hurriedly put down the book and bowed as if he were afraid.

"I just read the book and fell into it, and it's my fault." When he said this, he bowed his head deeply, not to mention how sincere.

It's my fault, these four words were learned by Wu Dawei when he was on the boat - it was an unforgettable memory after being caught making a mistake and being caught arguing. If, when he was in Florence, he learned that he should never admit that he had done something wrong, and that he had to quibble even if he was caught, then what he learned on the ship was that he would admit his mistake and accept punishment in everything.

Otherwise, it will only be more unlucky! Because he, a stranger with a completely different skin and hair color from others, faced death threats all the time, and even if he was very careful on the boat, he was almost thrown into the sea several times!

Although Zhu Ying's face is not good-looking, people honestly admit their mistakes, and the eldest lady's anger comes and goes just as quickly. What's more, the person was brought back by Zhang Shou, known as a scholar, and it also has a role in translating those documents, so she can be punished for not pleasing to the eye? At that moment, she ignored this kid, but looked at Zhang Shou and asked, "Ah Shou, will he come and go to the public school with you every day in the future?" ”

"That's right, when I was in public school, he would listen to Jiuzhangtang, those formulas and graphics and the like, he had some foundation, but he didn't know any of the Ming characters, so I was going to find a teacher to teach him. This is different from the professor's ordinary Mengtong, even if the ordinary master is not prejudiced, I am afraid it is difficult to be competent. I don't have time for him to study for ten or eight years. ”

"Yingying, do you have any good candidates to teach him and shorten the time for him to be proficient in the Ming language?"

Wu Dawei pricked up his ears to distinguish the conversation between Zhang Shou and Zhu Ying, although he tried his best to understand three or four percent, thanks to the fact that neither of them used that kind of idiom that was too difficult, but he could finally understand a meaning.

That is, at least the couple in front of them, who are obviously very young, have no ill will towards him, and are even seriously discussing his education. They seem to be planning to let him learn something well!

Wu Dawei was a little annoyed by this because he had no autonomy because of his own problems, but even when he was at home, he was a rebellious teenager, and at this time he seemed very well-behaved.

In Florence, the scholars were willing to work as tutors for the aristocracy, and were willing to charge high tuition fees to study under the children of wealthy merchants and burghers, but he was still the least popular as an illegitimate child. Coupled with his strange temper, he only stayed under a scholar for less than three months at the longest, and was finally kicked out.

But in this far east, he found that the school he had audited before had many students from real commoners, and there were even sons of peasants and craftsmen!

And it was not only the scholars who taught them, but also the young official in front of him, Mr. Zhang, who was not a few years older than him.

Seeing Zhang Shou asking for his opinion on this kind of matter, Zhu Ying's face suddenly bloomed with a smug smile. Although teaching and educating people seems to be Zhang Shou's good field, no one is more familiar with how to teach Fanren in this field.

You must know that whether it is the Taixue of the Han and Tang Dynasties or the Guozijian of the Song and Ming Dynasties, all of them are indispensable for a living ...... No, it's a character, that's ...... International students who have never stopped for thousands of years!

Many young people with different skin colors, different accents, different origins, and of course different races appeared neatly in Guozijian, the highest academic institution of the imperial court, and then received education in etiquette, law, scripture and history. They entered Beijing at the age of five or six, and when they returned to China, these people who had received a profound education in Chinese traditions would naturally bring Chinese culture back to their home countries.

It's just that Zhu Ying didn't plan to send the blonde boy to Guozijian at all. Not to mention that Zhang Shou and Guozijian are now completely torn apart, even if they don't, she doesn't think that those old scholars in Guozijian have this ability.

Because of those traditional subject countries, whether it is Goryeo or Annam-Burma, the princes and nobles can all speak fluent Chinese, and even write beautiful Chinese characters, so children are naturally nurtured. Because Japan is isolated overseas, there are not so many princes and nobles who can speak Chinese, but Chinese characters have always been common. As a result, many of the young people who were sent to Guozijian had a good foundation in Sinology.

After all, Chinese characters have been the most common language and script spoken in Siyi for thousands of years.

Don't look at the Turkic, Khitan, Jurchen, Mongol...... They all have their own languages and scripts, but now those languages may still be passed down by word of mouth, but it is difficult for the written language to be passed down, and even like the Western Xia, the written language is almost lost. Therefore, the most proficient in Khitan Western Xia and even Jurchen writing today is definitely not in the northwest, north and northeast, but in a place that no one expected.

Thinking of the secrets that the emperor told her, Zhu Ying said with a smile: "Leave this matter to me, I will ask a gentleman who is best at teaching people languages to teach this kid when I go back, and it will not take ten or eight years to keep it, at most one or two years will be completed!" ”

Zhang Shou suddenly muttered. Chinese has always been called the most difficult language in the world, there is no one, how many crooked nuts in later generations have been abused to death, Zhu Ying even boasted that it can be achieved quickly?

Moreover, where did this eldest lady go to invite Mr., how could he not know that she still had such connections before? You must know that the three brothers and sisters of the Zhu family, Zhu Tingfang is outstanding in literature and martial arts, but the remaining two seem to have nothing to do with studiousness and progress, and they also have nothing to do with those famous teachers and scholars...... Miss Zhu was ridiculed in the past for not learning and not knowing.

Zhu Ying pretended not to see Zhang Shou's suspicions, she raised her chin and nodded at the blonde boy with a confused face, and then said: "You are new to the city, don't work so hard, let Ah Liu assign you a place to live, first take a good look at the house, and then learn the rules, otherwise...... Be careful of getting boarded after making a mistake. ”

When the eldest lady said these last three words, she showed her little white teeth like a demonstration, which suddenly frightened Wu Dawei and put his legs together, and then quickly nodded like pounding garlic.

He'd only seen whips and sticks in the West, but he really hadn't seen such a terrible thing as a board...... It is so scary that Orientals can think of such a torture instrument to punish people! It's just that when he withdrew, he saw Zhu Yingyan smiling, it was really real and vivid, completely different from the aristocratic women he had seen who were smirking all the time.

This night, Wu Dawei, who changed his residence, not only had a single room, a sturdy bed, a thick bedding, but also enjoyed a rather hearty dinner. Although this was not the best treatment he enjoyed after arriving in Dongfang Mingguo, at least it was the most restful day for him to sleep. And the young man, who was known as the housekeeper, explained to him the house rules, and he remembered them very easily.

Because that's just two words – obedient, obedient, obedient! As long as you can do that, you can't go wrong!

Zhu Ying did what she said, and the next day, when Zhang Shou brought his new scholar to the public school and then brought it back, he learned from An Lu, the concierge manager, that the teacher his wife had volunteered to invite had arrived. He glanced back at the blonde boy behind him who was also full of honesty, and he smiled and said, "Okay, your teacher has arrived, let's go and see." ”

The language is slightly understood, but the text is completely incomprehensible, this is the most embarrassing situation of Wu Dawei today.

It can't be said that he can't read and write at all, the three simplest words of one, two, three, Wu Dawei can still recognize and write, however, when he first learned, he still felt that this Daming text was too simple and rude, and this would not be a horizontal and horizontal increase to indicate the quantity, he was dizzy by the facts. Because from four to ten, there is no pattern at all in terms of shape!

At this time, after understanding Zhang Shou's meaning, Wu Dawei was also overjoyed. When he followed Zhang Shou to the study, he saw the young lady he had seen yesterday and another man who was quite old but had no beard waiting there. When they saw him and Zhang Shou, the other party first saluted Zhang Shou solemnly, and then looked at him with a very critical gaze.

"Is that him?"

Wu Dawei was a little hairy from the cold gaze of the people, but he still managed to stand up straight. As for Zhang Shou, before he could say anything, he was directly dragged out by Zhu Ying. When he got to the door, he wanted to say that it was my study, not the blonde boy's study, why did he want me to go, but then he heard Zhu Ying's words: "This is Gonggong Liang in the palace." ”

"Father-in-law?" Zhang Shou couldn't help but feel ridiculous for a while, if it were someone else, maybe he would think that the eldest lady was playing tricks, but he knew that although Zhu Ying often played cards out of common sense, he was actually very measured, so he thought about it carefully after being stunned, and his eyes lit up for a while, "From the study hall in the master of ceremonies?" Or is it a collection of ancient and modern libraries? ”

"Ah Shou, why are you so smart!" Zhu Ying's eyes narrowed with a smile all of a sudden, and she had a sense of pride that her efforts were not in vain, "Gonggong Liang is the steward eunuch in the ancient and modern Tongji Library, he is familiar with Western Xia, Khitan, Jurchen, Mongolian, and even Turkic Chinese, which is rare now, he also has some dabbling. ”

Zhang Shou couldn't help but gasp. Although the Chinese minority script and the Western language family seem to be completely different dimensions and concepts, in fact, it is not simple at all, because those leaders who are proficient in Chinese script order those scholars who are also proficient in Chinese characters to create characters, and in order to highlight the national character, they often deliberately order people to create characters that are completely different from Chinese characters.

As a result, let alone foreigners, in the later period of the dynasty, many people of their own tribe could not write their own language! And that Liang Gonggong can be proficient in so many minority languages...... He couldn't help but say sincerely: "This Liang Gonggong is really a rare talent!" ”

Zhu Ying suddenly smiled even more happily: "When Emperor Taizu led the army to capture the capital of Yuan, he had carefully arranged the internal response in advance, so he kept a lot of books, and this is why there is a collection of ancient and modern books. But many of those books are written in these words, so from that time on, the palace has trained attendants to learn these words, so if you want to teach people the language and writing, no one can do it better than them! ”
