Chapter 19 is the Four Books
Since Zhou Zhi said that Sima Yi was the biggest beneficiary, Wang Ding immediately asked Zhou Zhi who he wanted to be among the three kingdoms, obviously this question was very dangerous.
No matter what kind of person Wang Ding is, if Zhou Zhi answers that he wants to be that Sima Yi, Wang Ding will spread it one day, which will definitely cause trouble for Zhou Zhi. Because Sima Yi is a usurper of the dynasty, he is no different from a thief. Although Zhou Zhi is just a poor boy with nothing, if someone takes the opportunity to make trouble, Zhou Zhi will not escape the disaster.
If Zhou Zhi really does something in the future, this will be even more detrimental to Zhou Zhi in the future.
Zhou Zhi frowned, pondered for a moment before saying, "The kid is a son of a peasant family, his family is poor, and the kid just wants his family to live a prosperous and happy life, and he wants nothing else." ”
Thinking of the purpose of this trip, he continued, "If the kid is really a character in the Three Kingdoms, the kid wants to be that Zhuge Liang, loyal to the king and love the people, do his best, and die." ”
When Zhou Zhi was talking, Wang Ding's old eyes kept staring at Zhou Zhi. Seeing that Zhou Zhi's face was as usual and very calm, Wang Ding couldn't help but nod secretly. Secretly, the old man really looks at people well, this kid is quite scheming. But what he said is true, in this prosperous era of Qingping, it would be really good if he could be a Zhuge Liang, and he would be famous in history.
After these words, Zhou Zhi's words were properly worded, and his words were full of chapters, where did he look like a peasant boy talking. At this time, Wang Ding was not only shocked by Zhou Zhi, but also shocked. Zhou Zhi has changed so much from before that he really can't understand the reason.
Is my Baiyue Village going to be talented?
Wang Ding's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at Zhou Zhi, both admiring and favoring, and only after a long time did he ask slowly, "Zhou family boy, let's say, what did you ask the old man for when you came to the old man's house?" But if you can help you, I will do my best to help. ”
Zhou Zhi hurriedly got off the kang, stood still, bowed deeply to Wang Ding again, and then said, "The kid actually came this time to borrow some books from the master to read." ”
"Borrowing books?" Wang Ding was immediately surprised.
Zhou Zhi, a poor boy, wanted to borrow a book to read, which had to surprise him. However, Wang Ding was relieved immediately, this week's boy is indeed not comparable to the children of ordinary poor families, and it is reasonable for him to want to study.
Thinking like this, Wang Ding smiled and said, "Okay, the old man borrowed the book from you." ”
With that, he reached out and touched the kang head. There was a small package in the kang head, Wang Ding opened the package, and there were several books inside.
"Look at this, you can take a random book and read it." Wang Ding put the book on the table and said to Zhou Zhi who seemed to be very generous. However, he said the word "one volume" very seriously, and he was obviously very stingy with Zhou Zhi's borrowing of books.
It's no wonder that Wang Ding, in ancient times, who didn't love books like his life?
How? Can I only borrow one volume? Zhou Zhi couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
He looked at the table, several books were thin pamphlets, including "Three Character Classic", "Hundred Family Names", "Thousand Character Text", "Mengqiu" and other things, and the thicker one was "Primary School" compiled by Zhu Xi. Obviously, these are the readings that Wang Ding usually teaches in social studies.
Social studies is established by the government, and its main task is to educate young children. The content of the teaching is mainly some basic books of Mongolian studies, etiquette such as weddings and funerals, as well as historical calculations and the like. In social studies, some of the collections of the Four Books and the Five Classics are also taught.
However, the social studies students in Baiyue Village are mainly children of peasant families, and the purpose of studying is only to know some words, arithmetic, and reasoning, not to really become scholars and participate in the imperial examination. So when Wang Ding was teaching, he was just a few things to learn.
In Wang Ding's view, although Zhou Zhi became extremely smart after falling into a coma, he could read the "Thousand Character Text" well, and knew a lot about the Three Kingdoms, but after all, he had never been educated, and if he wanted to read, he had to start from this learned thing.
Zhou Zhi flipped through the books, smiled at Wang Ding and said, "Master, the kid doesn't want to borrow these books, the kid wants to borrow books like the Four Books and the Five Classics." ”
The three-character scripture has clouds, "For scholars, there must be a beginning, and the end of primary school is four books." In Zhou Zhi's view, if you can only borrow one, then it is not too meaningful to borrow these books.
How to say that he is also a graduate of a prestigious university from later generations. Although the Mongolian reading materials at this time could not reach the level of memorization, these are simple and easy to learn after all, and they have also been involved in later generations, and the imperial examination is from the Four Books and Five Classics, and there is no examination for this Mongolian reading material. However, he dabbled very little in the Four Books and Five Classics, and did not seek to understand them, so he decided to start reading them from the Four Books.
Wang Ding's brows furrowed, he was very displeased, and said, "Reading should lay a good foundation, you are not proficient in these Mongolian reading materials, how can you read four books?" It's tantamount to building that castle in the sky. ”
"When the boy passed by the door of the social school, he heard the master teach these Mongolian books, and the boy knew a little. In the boy's opinion, it is not impossible for the boy to read the four books. Although Zhou Zhi said humblely, he had to say that he was still very arrogant.
No way, if you don't say that, you can't borrow four books.
In the past, if Zhou Zhi was so wildly talking, Wang Ding would definitely reprimand Zhou Zhi, and even sneer at him and ignore it. But now it's different, especially when Zhou Zhi talked about "Three Kingdoms" with him, the export was a chapter and very logical, which made Wang Ding have to be shocked by Zhou Zhi and treated him very humanly.
Wang Ding pondered slightly, thought for a while, then picked up the "Mengqiu" in the booklet, and said, "The boy of the Zhou family just said that he knows a little about Mengxue readings, and the old man wants to teach you a lesson." Tell me what is said in "Mengqiu"? ”
Zhou Zhi said, "The kid remembered that the master once said that there were 'Li Lingchu's poems, Tian Henggan's songs, Wu Zhong's endless struggles, and Shiheng's troubles. Huan Tan is not a prophecy, and Wang Shang stops slandering. Ji Lu drove his life, and Cheng Kong poured cover. 'What else is Xizi holding his heart and so on. ”
"Mengqiu" is a four-word rhyme, and each sentence is a story. These anecdotes are naturally known to Zhou Zhi, a well-known university graduate who came from later generations.
Wang Ding nodded slightly, and said, "Thousands of high-rise buildings rise from the ground, the old man knows, if you really want to start reading from the four books, the old man will not stop you." However, the old man still has to advise you to study on a solid foundation. ”
Zhou Zhi said secretly, I don't know if I have a solid foundation and learn from the basics? But if you just want to lend me a book, what can I do? And looking at your love of books, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to borrow it again next time.
Wang Ding continued, "And this reading is not something that ordinary people can do, and no matter what your current family background is, the hard work of reading alone is very bearable."
I took sentences from the Four Books and Five Classics for the imperial examination, and I must memorize all the Four Books and Five Classics. The four books and five classics alone have three or five hundred thousand words, which are obscure and difficult to memorize. There are also many commentaries and other scriptures, although it is not necessary to memorize them all, but at least to say that they can be recited millions of words. In addition, the imperial examination also had to examine the poems, so some famous poems had to be memorized.
You can imagine the difficulty of memorizing these alone. Rote memorization is not good, and it is even more difficult to understand and understand. Besides, if you want to make a name for yourself, you have to read history books, military books, etc., and you have to dabble in all kinds of things.
The single-plank bridges of 'Golden House', 'Thousand Zhongsu' and 'Yan Ruyu' are not so easy to walk. It's hard to take the imperial examination! It is precisely because the old man knows the difficulty of reading that the old man would rather send someone to help under the fence than study. Of course, the dog is not a piece of reading material.
Zhou family boy, if you really want to participate in the scientific examination, have you thought about it clearly? ”
