Chapter 073: Popularizing Pinyin and Arithmetic
With the news from Fuchun and the Zhu family, Liang Shanbo is finally no longer deaf and blind. But he still felt that it was not enough, so he called Liang Tong and instructed: "You take two teams of people to Shangyu County and organize all the beggars into a gang, and the name is the Beggars Gang." If someone is not convinced, then fight until he is convinced. The task of the beggar gang is to report to you regularly every day about the major and minor events that happen in the county, and if there are special circumstances, you can report to me. ”
Liang Tong agreed and left with twenty special combat members.
Liang Shanbo's main task is to train special combat personnel and teach children to study.
There are three large classrooms in a row on the estate, each of which is sixty square meters. In one of the classrooms there were thirty small benches, each with a small blackboard and some chalk in front of it.
The students are all children between the ages of six and twelve from homeless families, and because it is free to go to school, all the eligible children come, and there are only about 30 children.
Liang Shanbo's content is mainly pinyin and simple arithmetic. He writes on the big blackboard in front of him, and the children go to school on the small blackboard below. Liang Shanbo also wrote pinyin songs for children:
Small mouth open aaa,
The rooster crows ooo,
White goose swim eee.
Sambo taught the three letters in one morning, and the children not only had to be able to recognize and write, but they also had an important task of going home and teaching all the adults in the family.
Sambo stipulates that the exam will be taken after three months, but the test will not be for children, but for one person randomly selected from among the adults in the family. The standard to be met in the exam is to be able to write the name of the whole family in pinyin.
Families who pass the exam will be rewarded with two taels of silver, and those who fail the exam can re-study and take the exam again next time.
Liang Shanbo taught pinyin in the morning and arithmetic in the afternoon, first learning Arabic numerals, and Liang Shanbo also made up songs. In fact, this is all what his teacher taught him when he was a child.
1 Thin and long like a stick,
2 Like a duck floating on water,
3 Hear sounds like ears,
4. Like a small flag fluttering in the wind.
……
Children from poor families rarely have the opportunity to read, so the children study very seriously. Nursery rhymes full of innocence float in the sky above the manor.
Liang Shanbo, who was patrolling the classroom, suddenly noticed a small head leaking out of the window, and a pair of curious big eyes looked around.
In the distance, a pleasant female voice came, and her voice was mixed with majesty: "Youdu, come back quickly, don't disturb others." ”
As soon as he heard the voice, Liang Shanbo knew that Xie Xuan and Xie Daoyun were coming. Seeing that the sun was also the end of school, Liang Shanbo let the children go home.
Xie Xuan often came to the Liang family, mainly for the Liang family's food and Di Ting. As long as he stays in the Liang family for a few days, his body will be fat and red; When I return to Dongshan, I will lose weight again, and I often get sick.
Although the Xie family has a strict family education, the body and bones are more important, so Xie Xuan has become a frequent visitor to the "family".
Fortunately, the Xie family has a villa in the manor, and Xie Xuan can still study his homework here, and Xie Daoyun is the one who is responsible for teaching and supervising.
Because they often come to contact with each other, now Xie Daoyun and Zhu Yingtai have become best friends who talk about everything, and even she and Liang Shanbo are more familiar.
After saying hello, Xie Xuan stared at his curious eyes and asked, "Liang Gongzi, what are you teaching?" Why can't I read any of them? Then she turned back to Xie Daoyun and asked, "Sister, do you know each other?" ”
Xie Daoyun secretly blamed the childish in his heart, but it was not good for his younger brother not to say anything. Fortunately, the talented woman was quick-witted, so she didn't answer Xie Xuan, but asked Liang Shanbo: "Liang Gongzi, if you want to teach these children to read, shouldn't you teach them Confucian classics first?" ”
Liang Shanbo pointed to the Arabic numerals on the blackboard and said, the gentleman has six arts, and the number of imperial books is shot by the court. I'm teaching arithmetic. If you don't believe it, write that one plus one equals two.
Xie Xuan picked up a piece of chalk and wrote on the blackboard in traditional Chinese characters that one plus one equals two.
Before he could finish writing, Sambo picked up the chalk and wrote one plus one equals two in Arabic numerals on the blackboard. He wrote ten in a row that one plus one equals two, and Xie Xuan had just finished writing it.
Liang Shanbo pointed to the equation he wrote and said, "This is also pronounced as one plus one equals two." The old-fashioned way of writing requires at least fifty or sixty strokes, but mine only needs seven strokes.
My students are all children from poor families, and they don't have time to learn the things that fool people, but they can only learn something really useful. ”
Xie Xuan tilted his head and asked, "What's the use of going to school for the children of the poor family?" Can they learn, and what can they do? ”
Liang Shanbo glanced at Xie Daoyun helplessly, the good children have been taught badly by you.
After all, Xie Xuan was only a nine-year-old child, and Liang Shanbo patiently taught him: "There is a difference between men and women, young and old, but there is no distinction between high and low. If there were no old peasants farming, tailoring clothes, and craftsmen building houses, what would we eat, what would we wear, and what would we live in? Indeed, the people are our food and clothing, and our parents.
There is no shortage of smart people from poor families. If you can read and receive teaching, you will naturally be talented. Kuang Heng chiseled the wall in order to understand the "Book of Songs".
Learning is all-encompassing and vast as the universe. It is recorded in the book that it is not as good as just in case. When it comes to growing vegetables, Confucius is not as good as the old peasants. The two children debated, and Confucius was dumbfounded by the question. The saint is like this. How much more do we wait?
Don't think that what you have learned is the knowledge of governing the country and securing the country. How can the Hu people win, only riding and shooting! Isn't it just that you can ride a horse and shoot arrows? Are they more than the books we read?
Riding is also a knowledge, is it a university that can defeat the enemy and build a country and a country?
True learning is not in books, but in practice. The so-called reading 10,000 books is better than traveling 10,000 miles, which is exactly the case. ”
Xie Xuan was confused when he said this, and he didn't know what to do when he touched his head. Why didn't he say it was in any of these books?
Dao Yun frowned, stared at Shan Bo sharply, and said, "Does Liang Gongzi think that the Confucian Five Classics, the Taoist Tao Te Ching, and the metaphysical Zhuangzi are useless?" ”
Sambo's answer was simple: "It's useful, you can talk about it." ”
"Isn't it useless to talk about the mysteries?" Dao Yun continued to ask, his tone unconsciously becoming stern.
"Clear talk is misleading the country, but hard work is prosperous. Five indiscriminate flowers, life and souls. The two emperors went to the disaster and traveled south. Avoid living in the south of the Yangtze River, do not want to forge ahead. Indulge in the mountains and rivers, and travel with Ji. Alcoholism, depravity and addiction. Apply powder and incense, turn things upside down. Intrigue and intrigues, mountains and rivers are broken. Woohoo and mourn, have mercy on my people! ”
The history of the Jin Dynasty has many similarities with the later Song Dynasty.
The first is the usurpation of power. Sima Yan seized Cao Wei Jiangshan, and Zhao Kuangyin and Chen Qiao mutinied to seize the imperial power of Hou Zhou.
The second is to experience the same catastrophe. The Song Dynasty had the shame of Jingkang, and the Jin Dynasty had the well-dressed south. Huizong and Qinzong of the Song Dynasty were captured and died tragically, and Emperor Huai and Emperor Chu of the Jin Dynasty were captured, all of whom died in humiliation.
In the face of Xie Daoyun's questioning, Liang Shanbo did not hesitate to return the color, I don't know why he was so excited today, and finally added another sentence, even he himself was inexplicable.
"If Qing Tan is useful, Chen Liuxie's family, why don't you go home?"
Xie's original home is Chen Liuyangxia, which is today's Taikang County, Henan Province.
Xie Daoyun didn't expect that his rhetorical question would lead to Liang Shanbo's endless tirade, and these words were to the point and to the point, but he didn't know how to refute it.
Because in the past, when those who debated with themselves, they used to quote scriptures and classics, looking for chapters and excerpts. I have read more books than them, and I am smarter than them, so it is easy to deal with them. But today's Shanbo's remarks are something she has never heard of or seen, so how should she deal with it?
But Shanbo so blatantly criticized the scholars who migrated south, especially her uncle Xie An, and she couldn't help but object.
"You, you're talking nonsense! The Tao is different, not the same! Xie Daoyun's face was flushed, and it took a long time to say such a sentence, and then he flicked his sleeves and led Xie Xuan back to the Xie family's villa angrily.
Liang Shanbo saw Xie Daoyun leave angrily, and sat in the classroom for a long time. He couldn't understand why he was talking so much today. Why am I talking so much to them?
In later generations, he admired Xie Daoyun and Xie Xuan very much, and that was the Xie family's Zhilan Yushu. Yongxu talented woman, famous for thousands of years; Xie Xuan is a famous general in Beifu, in the first battle of Weishui, 70,000 wins and 800,000, he is famous all over the world, and it has been passed down through the ages!
But what about Xie Daoyun and Xie Xuan that I saw in reality? Xie Xuan is still a child who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun? Expect him to go on the Northern Expedition, then he has to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse Moon?
Xie Daoyun is indeed smart, but her speech and demeanor reveal her contempt for the Shu family. Even the knowledgeable Xie Daoyun is like this, not to mention other noble children?
Maybe it was because I imagined them to be too great and perfect, and it was the cruel reality that crushed my dream of stardom.
No matter how well history books portray them, they are also people living in this era, and the limitations of history are inevitable.
It is very difficult to transform a society, and it is even more difficult to change people's ideological concepts. Otherwise, it has been nearly 70 years since the founding of the country, why are there still so many ideas and concepts of feudal society?
I have to change them little by little, it's not urgent, I need to take my time. Liang Shanbo has read so many history books about the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and he likes Xie Daoyun and Xie Xuan from the bottom of his heart. He doesn't want them to be on his side?
Xie Xuan was dragged back to the villa by his sister, and it was the first time he had seen his sister so atmospheric. In the past, my sister was not full of words and spirits! But why did you collapse today? Could it be that Uncle Liang Shan is more powerful than his sister?
But there were so many little blackboards in that room that I liked, and those inexplicable symbols were also fun. I'll go and see it when I have the chance, but of course I can't let my sister know.
Xie Daoyun is also reflecting, why is Liang Shanbo obviously wrong, but it is difficult to refute? The key is the question he said, did the saint have a thesis? I can't find a basis.
Xie Daoyun began to flip through the book non-stop.
