Chapter 10 School apprenticeship, handsome little landlord
Happy days always go too fast, and Guo Tian, who has been educated at home for too long, ushered in his first enrollment.
In the Wangcun School, Guo Yu led Guo Tian to stand in the middle hall, and in front of him sat Mr. Wang Quanan from the school. Guo Yu put the six gifts he brought aside, including celery, lotus seeds, red beans, red dates, longan, and air-dried lean meat, which were all prepared in the market before.
After Guo Yu planned to send Guo Tian to the school, he asked someone what etiquette and etiquette he needed to send to the apprentice. Three days before entering the hall, Guo Yu stepped up his training at home to train Guo Tian in apprenticeship etiquette, hoping that he could apprentice smoothly and that there would be no mistakes.
The Six Rites are gifts that disciples use to give to their husbands to express their intention to enter the school.
Among them, celery means diligent and studious, and good at diligence; The lotus seed is bitter, which means painstaking education; Red beans, meaning red luck; Jujube, meaning early and high school; Longan, meaning for the completion of the merit; Dried lean meat strips to express a little bit of the disciple's heart.
At the beginning of the ceremony in the middle hall, under the guidance of a senior brother in the school, Guo Tian knelt down and raised the basket containing the six salutes to his husband. Wang Quanan half-got up and picked up the basket, then put it aside, and the first ceremony ended.
In the second item, the disciple served tea to the husband. Guo Tian took the tea handed over by his senior brother, raised his hands above his head, and said, "Sir, please drink tea." Wang Quanan still half got up and took a sip of the tea and put it on the coffee table.
Immediately after Guo Tian heard it, the disciple knelt down and bowed to Mr. Guo Tian knew that this was to get up and bow to his husband three times, and his father taught himself at home that he needed to get up when he got here, and then kneel again, put his palms on the ground, and kowtow to his husband three times. If Mr. doesn't accept you, then the previous thing is equivalent to doing it in vain.
After Guo Tian got up, he knelt down again, put his hands on the ground, and kowtowed to Wang Quanan three times. Guo Yu knew that this was the most important thing, and his hands couldn't help but clench and look at Guo Tian kowtow.
This time, Wang Quanan did not get up like the last two times, but stood up when Guo Tian kowtowed for the second time, and looked at Guo Tian with a smile. After Guo Tian kowtowed to the third head, he helped Guo Tian up.
This level is complete!
Immediately after Guo Tian heard "Please give a lecture to Mr.", which is also the fourth step, which is both a lecture from Mr. and a return gift from Mr.
Wang Quanan said: "Guo Tian, you have to remember that you have to study hard and practice hard when you enter my door. Then he took a handful of prepared celery to Guo Tian.
Guo Tian knelt down and caught celery with both hands.
Wang Quanan said again: "I hope you are sensitive, studious, smart and wise. Then he handed a green onion to Guo Tian.
"I will give you four more words, etiquette, learning, perseverance, and success" and took a set of four books and five classics to Guo Tian.
Guo Tian knelt down and listened to Wang Quanan's lecture and accepted Wang Quanan's return gift, so he agreed to worship under Wang Quanan's door.
Immediately afterwards, Guo Tian listened again, "Please ask the disciple to return to Mr. Training." This is also the disciple's instruction back to his husband, who has expressed his diligent and studious mind.
"Please rest assured, sir, the disciple will be diligent and studious, and live up to his cultivation."
Guo Tian replied in his own childish tone, and the fifth step was over.
This is the end of the apprenticeship ceremony, and Guo Tian's task is completed.
In the last item, the parents gave a bundle, that is, 2 taels of silver. In any era, material life is needed, and material life is needed to create value.
.......
At the end of the apprenticeship, Guo Tian was led into the east wing hall, where there were 9 students under the age of ten who were endorsing.
Wang Quanan led Guo Tian into the house and said to everyone, "This is Guo Tian from Guojia Village, I will study with you in the future, everyone must help each other and be friendly, study diligently and ask questions, and don't waste time." ”
Then Guo Tian was arranged to sit in the second row on the left-hand side, and the next seat was a chubby child.
After Guo Tian sat down, the big fat dun greeted him: "My name is Liu Sheng, you will call me Xiaosheng in the future, everyone calls me like this", after speaking, he smiled at Guo Tian, the middle of the upper door teeth is hollow, like the mouth of the city gate with a leaky wind, deep and dark.
"Poof, okay, my name is Guo Tian."
After Guo Tian saw it, he couldn't hold back his laughter for a while, and reached out to pat Liu Sheng's shoulder.
Wang Quanan asked the junior students in the room to open the thousand-character text and taught them two sentences: "The ruler is not a treasure, and the inch is a competition." The father is a gentleman, and he is strict and respectful. ”
Lead them to read it a few times, then carefully explain the shape of the strokes of the characters, explain the meaning of these two sentences, and let them study on their own, and then go to see the senior students next door.
In the village cottage, it is generally a gentleman with a group of students, who is too busy to do it himself, and most of them give priority to teaching the elderly, so that they can prepare for the children's exam early.
The Huangchao riots are over, and he should also prepare for the Jinshi exam, Wang Quanan especially feels that time is tight, and this group of senior students will take the children's exam in early September.
If the Jinshi exam is held next year, how will this batch of students be solved, and another student will be accepted today. made Wang Quanan feel pressured, and he didn't have so much attention to the junior students.
Guo Tian went to school on the first day, he was ignorant, and he learned to read and read with his husband, but he didn't understand a few words, and he was in distress. The big fat man next to him was at the same table, patted Guo Tian on the shoulder and said, "Guo Tian, are you coming to school on your first day?" ”
"yes, my first day at school."
"It's okay, if you don't understand anything, just ask me, I've been here for a year and a half." The big fat man Liu Sheng patted his chest and said, as if he was a big brother patting his chest on his little brother.
"Be quiet, just teach others, it's been a year and a half, and I haven't memorized a thousand words, shame on you! Hahaha, I've never seen such a stupid person. ”
Guo Tian only noticed that it was a young man dressed in brocade white. The young man's angular face has clear eyebrows, glazed eyes, and thin pale red lips under the bridge of his nose. Her jet-black hair was neatly combed and tied back with a light blue ribbon.
is such a handsome young man, but he just sneered and sneered, which is really annoying.
The boy is Wang Lei, the fourth son of the big landlord Wang Ren in the village, and his name means bright and upright, and he is six years old. In fact, the exit hurts people, which is really incompatible with a good skin.
"Wang Lei, what do you say, who can't carry it."
Liu Sheng's nickname is "Whispering", because he is also a big voice like Guo Tian, so he got such a title.
"Then you carry the big guy's back!"
"Back" "Back, fast back"
The other children in the house also followed suit, wanting to see Liu Sheng recite a thousand-character text, knowing that he couldn't memorize it, and preparing to see his liveliness.
Liu Sheng was able to memorize it after stumbling before, thinking about showing his face in front of the big guy, and by the way, he began to memorize: "Heaven and earth are yellow, and the universe is desolate." The sun and the moon are shining, and the sun and moon are shining. The cold comes and the summer comes, and the autumn harvest is hidden in winter. ......" Liu Sheng began to recite.
The thousand-character text is a rhyme composed of 1,000 Chinese characters compiled by Zhou Xingsi, a loose cavalry servant of the Liang Dynasty during the Northern and Southern Dynasties. In the middle and late Tang Dynasty, it was especially regarded as an enlightenment book for children.
Liu Shengyang recited more than 50 sentences freely, and began to get stuck and couldn't recite it, and stammered there for a long time: "Back, back,,,"
"Carry the dead, you can't carry it for a long time, and you dare to brag that you can carry it, hahaha."
The handsome young man Wang Lei followed a group of children in the house and laughed, Liu Sheng stammered at this time, and stood there in a daze, silent at this time.
looked at the people who were laughing in the room, and said angrily: "You are amazing, you can carry one for me to see." ”
Liu Sheng was unconvinced and demonstrated towards Wang Lei.
Guo Tian looked at Liu Sheng's performance, couldn't help but be embarrassed, and pulled Liu Sheng to sit down.
"Hahaha, back on your back, let you see the young master's ability, I'll continue on your back."
Then there was the sound of Lang Lang's endorsement in the room.
"The back side is Luo, and the floating Wei is according to the scriptures. The palace is gloomy, and the building is shocking......."
Wang Lei then stood in his place, stretched out his right hand, and recited the second half of the thousand-character text with emotion.
"Tie the strap, wander and look at it. Lonely and unheard, ignorant and so on. ”
Back here, Wang Lei paused, stretched out his hands apart, raised his hand towards the big guy, and motioned to recite the last sentence together.
"The predicate helper, it's a shame."
The same voice sounded in the house, and Liu Sheng's face was red and his neck was thick, and he was embarrassed and thrown home, so he had to bow his head and remain silent.
"Foolish, hahaha, ridiculous."
Wang Lei is like a high-profile star, looking around at the big guy looking into his eyes, and laughing smugly from time to time.
In a day's class, I was bullied at the same table, and I was stupid and waiting, and I didn't learn a few words and a few words.
