Chapter 194: Father and Son Talk
"Persuasion" is a discourse written by Xunzi, a thinker and writer during the Warring States Period, and is the first article of the book "Xunzi".
This paper systematically discusses the theories and methods of learning, and comprehensively and profoundly discusses the problems related to learning from the aspects of the importance of learning, the attitude of learning, and the content and methods of learning.
The whole text can be divided into four paragraphs, the first paragraph explains the importance of learning, the second paragraph talks about the correct learning attitude, the third paragraph talks about the content of learning, and the fourth paragraph talks about learning should start and finish.
This article was copied by Song Zhiyuan, Wang Dazhui's enlightenment teacher, and specially found someone to give it to Wang Dazhui.
Song Zhiyuan and Li Shimin's thoughts coincide, and they both feel that what Wang Dazhui should do at this stage is to focus on studying.
Wang Dazhui thought about it and felt that they were all for their own good, and what they said made sense, but he was still too impatient. If you want to make a difference in Datang, you are not in a hurry, and the most important thing is to lay a solid foundation first.
Besides, it was also to prepare for the gunpowder factory, and Wang Dazhui really couldn't spare time to drop out of school. Later, because of the second sister's accident, she was decadent for a long time, and went to Liupan Mountain to start a cement factory.
Immediately afterwards, I was dizzy and dizzy to prepare for a series of things such as medical school and medical competitions. Completely left the matter of reading books behind.
Wang Dazhui reflected, he felt that he was indeed impatient, he seemed to be busy recently, but he was a little messy and did not have a complete plan, if he went on like this for a long time, even if he knew more things, his future achievements would not be much better.
The love of parents for their children is far-reaching. Although Li Shimin and Song Zhiyuan are not Wang Dazhui's parents, they can make long-term plans for Wang Dazhui, which shows that they are indeed sincerely thinking about Wang Dazhui.
Regarding Li Shimin and Song Zhiyuan's views, Wang Dazhui's parents naturally agree very much, although they don't read much, but they also understand the importance of reading.
"Son, speaking of which, my father is not qualified enough, if it weren't for the emperor and your enlightenment teacher to remind us, we would have ignored your future." Wang Fugui looked ashamed, and said to Wang Dazhui with a solemn expression.
Wang Dazhui's heart was wrapped in a warm current for a moment, and his heart was unprecedentedly warm, "Dad, what did you say?" If it weren't for you and my mother, there would be no me in this world. You have fed me, clothed me, raised me so much, and never had a shortage of me anywhere, and you are the best parents in the eyes of your son. ”
Wang Fugui smiled, his son was so sensible and filial, he was naturally happy, and at the same time, he blamed himself even more that he should not ignore his son's future. The son is too sensible, but it seems that they are not competent enough as parents, and their hearts are even more sad.
"Son, if only you didn't blame us. The emperor and your teacher are right, you should do what kind of things you should do at any age, and you must not be impatient, so as to delay yourself. From tomorrow onwards, you will obediently go to Hongwenkan to study, and the gentlemen of Hongwenkan are all erudite people who teach the princes, and you will definitely learn a lot of useful things by following them. ”
Wang Dazhui naturally agreed, "Dad, don't worry." The child must study hard and learn from his husband. ”
"Well, that's good, not only to study the knowledge in the book, but also to learn the way of life of those gentlemen, so that you will live up to our expectations of you in the future." Wang Fugui said earnestly.
To be honest, I haven't had such a serious conversation with my father as today for a long time. Being able to listen to his father talk to him made him feel very touched.
Wang Dazhui nodded heavily, "Dad, don't worry, your old man, my son will remember your teachings today." ”
"Haha, worthy of being a good son of my father, to have a sensible child like you is a blessing that my mother and I have cultivated for several lifetimes." Wang Fugui touched Wang Dafei's head and said happily.
"My son can have parents like his father and mother, which is a blessing that I have cultivated in several lifetimes!" Wang Dazhui said obediently.
While the two were talking, Zhang Cuihua came to the room with a plate of snacks and said with a smile: "You father and son are talking about Luoquan?" Do you praise each other? Our family can be together, that is God's arrangement. ”
"Haha......"
Hearing this, Wang Dazhui and his father Wang Fugui laughed together.
"Time flies so fast, in the blink of an eye, our sledgehammer has become a little man, I heard that your brother-in-law Bai Ran was able to go to high school this time, thanks to you for asking Di Renjie to help tutor." Zhang Cuihua said with a smile.
"The eldest brother-in-law is in high school, that's his ability, although Master Di helped tutor, but if he doesn't work hard enough, it's in vain. However, my brother-in-law was able to rank in high school, and Master Di really contributed a lot. Wang Dazhui picked up a piece of dim sum and said with a smile.
"I heard that the emperor and Mr. Song both advised you to go back to the academy to study, is there such a thing?" Zhang Cuihua asked.
"Mother...... How do you know? Wang Dazhui asked as he ate.
Wang Fugui also looked up at his wife Zhang Cuihua with a smile on his face, with curiosity on his face, after all, they hadn't told anyone else about these things.
"Your eldest brother-in-law said that Mr. Song and your eldest brother-in-law also know each other, and the two often exchange letters. It was said that Mr. Song was very concerned about your affairs, and he was very angry when he heard that you did not continue to study in the school. Zhang Cuihua dotingly looked at Wang Da Hammer, who was eating, and said.
"Mr. Song, why didn't he write to me, speaking of which, this is the first time I have recovered his letter!" Wang Dazhui smiled at the letter with "Persuasion" written on it.
"It's probably a good face, your student is now the Viscount of the Founding of the Five Grades, but he is still a showman. So I'm sorry to write to you, but this time I guess I mustered up the courage to write it. Wang Fugui analyzed.
Wang Dazhui thought about it, Song Zhiyuan is indeed a very good-looking person, and he is easily reluctant to tell others if he has something in his heart.
Thinking of Song Zhiyuan, Wang Dazhui felt a little sorry for him in his heart, because the poem "Qinyuan Spring" almost made him suffer an injustice.
Fortunately, Li Shimin is generous enough, if he changes to another cautious emperor, or a mediocre emperor, Song Zhiyuan is afraid that he will fall into a big crime of disrespect and be imprisoned.
It was also because of his unintentional mistake that he almost lost his life, and because of this, he missed the government examination of Longyou Dao, and missed the examination.
"Mr. Song is a good person, because he has become what he is now, not only did he not complain about me as a student, but also always considered me everywhere, it is also my blessing to meet him, and I will definitely find a way to repay him if I have the opportunity in the future."
