After school, Zheng Sen and Hong Shilong went out together, Hong Shilong cried and said with a sad face: "It's over, this matter will definitely not be hidden from my father, and my father will definitely kill me." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"Aaron, I'll teach you four words." Zheng Sen said.

"What four words?" Hong Shilong seemed to have caught a straw in the water, and looked at Zheng Sen with blazing eyes.

"The small staff will take it, and the big staff will go." Zheng Sen said.

"The small stick will be accepted, and the big stick will go" means that when the father beats his son, if he beats him with a small stick, you will honestly let him beat him, and if he the big guy, then run quickly. In the eyes of Confucianism, this is what a filial son should do when facing domestic violence from his parents. Because in this way, the body hair and skin given by the parents will not be too badly damaged, and the parents will not regret it because of the momentary anger, and they will be infamous for being unkind.

"That's it!" Hong Shilong turned his face away in disappointment, "I thought there was some trick." I've always done that. ”

"Then tell me, your father is going to beat you hard, where are you going?" Zheng Sen asked with a smile.

"Of course, it's my grandmother's place, my uncle is not at home, and my grandmother can control my father and protect me in this house...... But this time, I'm afraid my grandmother will say that I should fight. ”

"Even if your grandmother says you should be beaten, with her old man's house, you won't really have your ass blooming." Zheng Sen said that Mrs. Hong has always been very strict in teaching her son, but she is a little doting on her grandson. This is also a common phenomenon in the elderly, so many times, children will use their grandparents as amulets.

"Then I'm going to be beaten." Hong Shilong said with a sad face.

"Do you want to be left alone?" Zheng Sen said, "Okay, you go back and see your father's reaction, I guess your father will probably make a big gesture to scare you, such as picking up a big stick or something, and then you just run, know where to run?" ”

"My grandmother's there. Isn't that still going to be beaten? Hong Shilong said.

"Stupid! You're not going to just run out the door and run to Mr. Wang? Zheng Sen said.

"Running to Mr. Wang?" Hong Shilong still hasn't understood.

"Mr. Wang is very soft-hearted, do you think he really beat us with a ring ruler once? You ran to Mr. Wang and said that your father was going to beat you, and you thought that you should be beaten, and you planned to obediently let your father teach you a good lesson, but who knew that your father touched a big stick. You remembered the story of Zeng Zi Yungua that Mr. Wang told us, and remembered the master's teachings to Zeng Zi, so you hurriedly ran out. After running out, there was nowhere to go, and I thought that after your father was a little angry, I would have to find a virtuous elder to take the matter of running away when I went back to make amends, and only Mr. Wang could help with this in this town, so I ran to Mr. Wang. Zheng Sen said.

"Is that okay?" Hong Shilong was a little unconvinced.

"Absolutely." Zheng Sen said, "Mr. Wang will naturally be happy to know that you can learn and apply what you have learned, and of course, he will definitely scold you twice." Listen to me, yes. ”

"Really?" Hong Shilong looked at Zheng Sen with blank eyes.

"Of course. It's a big deal, it doesn't work out, and as a result, you'll be beaten at best. Anyway, the night won't be worse. Zheng Sen said irresponsibly.

"This ...... It makes sense, so be it. It is up to people to plan things, and it is up to heaven to make things happen! Fight! Hong Shilong finally encouraged himself like this.

……

Early the next morning, Zheng Sen was the first to arrive in the classroom as usual, and as soon as he packed up his things, he saw Hong Shilong walking in with a lot of parts.

"How?" Zheng Sen asked.

"High, really high!" Hong Shilong gave a thumbs up.

"Why are you here so early?" Zheng Sen asked again. Because Hong Shilong rarely comes so early.

Hong Shilong touched his head and said, "I was educated yesterday." My father, and Mr. Wang, both made me learn from you, Mr. Wang said, you are the first to come every day, and you will study seriously as soon as you come. My father told me to follow along. Also, there are some things that I want to ventilate with you as well. ”

"What's the matter?" Zheng Sen asked.

"Yesterday I did as you said, and after running out of the house, I ran to Mr. Wang, who knew that after Mr. Wang asked two questions, I was stupid, and the result was ...... As a result, I told you about it. Hong Shilong lowered his head.

"How do you ...... Forget it, what do you say? Zheng Sen said.

"Mr. Wang asked me a few words about the etiquette of how children can make amends to their parents, but I forgot all about it, and he asked me how I knew how to come to him if I didn't know anything about it. I can't just say that after I ran out of the house, I had nowhere to go, and I didn't know what to do, so I thought of you, and I think you have the best way. I will first come to you and ask you for help, and then you will tell me to come to the sir. If you ask in a moment, you will have to say this. Hong Shilong said.

"It's strainable, not too bad. The children can be taught! Zheng Sen said with a smile.

However, Mr. Wang did not ask Zheng Sen to verify this matter, because in his opinion, Zheng Sen's guidance was completely in line with the way of friends, and with what Zheng Sen had learned, he would definitely be able to teach Hong Shilong like this, so this matter did not need to be verified. And the county order is coming in a few days, and he has to hurry up to let the children study hard. Especially Zheng Sen, Mr. Wang knew that if the county order wanted to come here, Zheng Sen was only afraid that he would be an important object of investigation. For this reason, Zheng Sen was unable to go home during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

……

At noon on the third day after the Mid-Autumn Festival, Yang Xianzun came to Yingdu Town. However, Yang Xianzun did not come to the school immediately, but went to Hong's house first. I talked with Hong Chengjian for a long time, and I didn't leave Hong's house until the afternoon and lived in the post station.

At noon the next day, Yang Xianzun came to the Hong clan study. Yang Xianzun got off the sedan chair outside the school hall and walked over, while Hong Chengzhen accompanied him. Mr. Wang led the students to stand at the door of the school to greet them, and Zheng Sen and Hong Shilong followed closely behind him.

"Yang Xianzun, this is Mr. Wang who is here to confer the hall." Hong Chengjian first introduced Mr. Wang to Yang Xianzun.

"Sir, it's hard work." Yang Xianzun was very friendly. Because he had already done his homework before he came, he knew that this Mr. Wang was Hong Chengchou's classmate, although he failed to be admitted to the lifter, and of course he did not have an official status, but he also had a certain influence.

"I don't dare to greet my parents." Mr. Wang also hurried to say, and at the same time turned around to make way out, "Old parents, please come in." ”

Yang Xianzun did not go in directly, but said to Mr. Wang: "In the school, when Mr. is the leader, please ask Mr. to go first." ”

The two humbled for a while, and Yang County Zuncai took Mr. Wang's hand and entered the school together. When Mr. Wang arrived at the school, Mr. Wang asked Yang Xianzun to take a seat, and Yang Xianzun did not refrain this time, so he sat down on the throne, and Mr. Wang and Hong Chengzhen sat on both sides.

"Mr. Hong, I see that your Hong family is really prosperous, and it really deserves to be a poetic heirloom. I also met Ling Lang in your mansion yesterday, and he is really knowledgeable and lovely. In the future, the young phoenix will be clear in the voice of the old phoenix, and it will be able to shine on the lintel. This county will hold a children's test in February next year according to the usual practice, I don't know Ling Lang, there are other children in this ethnic school can participate? ”

"Back to the county." Hong Chengzhen said, "The child is stubborn, the morality is insignificant, and he is only nine years old this year, so I am still ready to let him take the county exam in another year or two." As for ethnology, there are a few children who are preparing to take the county exam this year. ”

"I don't know which of your talents?" Yang Xianzun seemed to be very interested.

"First of all, this Zheng Xiaoyou." Hong Chengjian said as he pointed his finger at Zheng Sen.

Hearing that Hong Chengjian actually directly called Zheng Sen with the word "little friend" in front of so many people, Yang Xianzun couldn't help but be taken aback. Of course, he knew that Zheng Sen borrowed it from the Hong family's ethnology, but in his opinion, this was one of the ways that the Zheng family and the Hong family were close to each other, and money and power colluded with each other, which was really common in my Ming Dynasty. But even if such a collusion is to be established, Hong Chengjian can't be guilty of surrendering his identity and calling Zheng Sen "little friend", right?

"This Zheng Xiaoyou is the eldest son of General Zheng, the guerrilla general of the Five Tigers, and his morality is quite outstanding. Speaking of which, I have a story about my acquaintance with Zheng Xiaoyou...... "Hong Chengjian even told Yang Xianzun the story when he and Zheng Sen met.

"Yes, Mr. Hong is really discerning. I wonder what kind of sutra this child is treating now? Yang Xianzun asked a very important sentence.

"Now this kid is learning the Rites." Mr. Wang replied.

"Well, yes, if you don't learn etiquette, you can't stand, and this etiquette is the foundation of cultivating morality." Yang Xianzun nodded, and said: "Now this child's morality is probably becoming more and more outstanding, right?" ”

"Some time ago, the Yiren attacked me, and the father of this child carried the coffin on the ship and fought a decisive battle with the Yiren. The boy also went to sea with his father, and although he did not go into battle himself, he could be regarded as having experienced the war himself. The word loyalty and filial piety have been done well. However, it took a lot of time to go back and forth, and this writing effort was delayed a lot. Mr. Wang replied, "I can barely read the eight-strand article, but this is a trial poem...... Zheng Sen has never worked on poetry, and this trial poem has always been full of ingenuity...... It's not even as good as Hong Shilong. ”

"Among the articles and loyalty and filial piety, loyalty and filial piety are fundamental, and those who are virtuous must have words. A gentleman is a gentleman, and he is born from the beginning. As long as the virtue is good, the rhetoric and other things will naturally follow. Yang Xianzun said with a smile. Then he turned his head and said to Zheng Sen, "You are Zheng Sen?" Come here. ”

When Zheng Sen heard this, he stepped forward and greeted Yang County Commander generously.

"But a teenager has this kind of bearing. Just this bearing, even if he really gave him the first case, at least it is not difficult to put it out. It seems that the prodigy is not without reason. Yang Xianling nodded in his heart.

"Zheng Sen, since you are attacking "Li", this official will test you, well, how to solve the problem of "Buried and Born"?"

This is a sentence in "The Book of Rites: Zeng Zi Asks the Seventh", which is a whole sentence, but it is not very difficult. So Zheng Sen quickly completed the problem-solving. Yang Xianling looked at it and said: "Although it is not particularly exciting, it is better to be calm." In this way, it is easy to expand later, which is not bad. Well, I'll say one more sentence: 'No housewife', you're breaking out and looking at me. Zheng Sen solved the problem again according to his words. Yang County Ling also said: ""Rite" is the foundation of life. May you keep an eye on it! Then he took the other students' exams and left.
