Chapter 17 Quan'an gambler, Guo Tianjia reads
When I was young, I left home to study, and if I didn't succeed in learning, I vowed not to return.
The disciple is not responsible for the master, and the disciple bears the blame for his own bequest.
In his early years, no one knew who Wang Quanan followed to study and where he went to study, only that Wang Quanan left home as a teenager and returned to his hometown many years later to take the children's exam, all the way to Gongshi.
When everyone thought that he was about to enter the ranks of scholars, the Huangchao Rebellion broke out, and no one paid attention to the imperial examination anymore, and it was important to save his life.
……
Wang Quanan himself has studied for many years, and he can no longer continue in the imperial examination, although he is unwilling in his heart, but the world is becoming more and more chaotic, and the people's hearts are not ancient......
Cultural inheritance is passed on by master and apprentice, Wang Quanan himself can have the current knowledge, thanks to his master's teaching, seeing Guo Tian's courage and good character, Wang Quanan knows that he may have waited for the right person.
Whether he will have a chance to continue the imperial examination in his life, Wang Quanan is not sure, but Guo Tian is still young, he is only four years old, maybe ten years, maybe twenty years, maybe a lifetime, no one can say for sure, but there should always be a chance.
"Guo Tian, this child, is talented and intelligent, and he dares to do things, I hope to cultivate him in depth."
Wang Quanan came to Guo Tian's house and talked to Guo Yu, hoping that he could deepen his training for Guo Tian, instead of teaching in the school, to ask for the opinions of Guo's family.
"Mr. Wang, what is in-depth cultivation? I don't understand too well, isn't Guo Tian learning from you now? ”
Wang Quanan's sudden visit made the Guo family beat a drum in their hearts, thinking that Guo Tian had done something wrong in the school, and Mr. found home.
Guo Yu didn't understand what Wang Quanan said about "in-depth cultivation", and when he heard that it wasn't Guo Tian who did bad things in the school, he was relieved, and then asked Wang Quanan for a solution.
"Guo Tian is studying in the academy now, and he can't give full play to his greatest advantages, Guo Tian can learn more, so I want him to follow me to study more after class every day."
Wang Quanan knows that there are very few children from peasant families who can come to study, and most of them are from wealthy families, so they can afford to provide for a student. There are very few who can persevere, and in the end, they will all fail and find another way out.
"Oh, yes, yes, yes."
Guo Yu heard that Wang Quanan valued Guo Tian so much, and said three good things in a row, so he couldn't close his mouth happily, and promised Wang Quanan to "cultivate Guo Tian in depth" by him.
"Good. Guo Tian, after class, you will learn for more hours with your teacher, and I hope that you can learn more and forge ahead in the future, strive to achieve success in your studies, and achieve something in the imperial examination earlier. ”
Wang Quanan chose to train Guo Tian like a gamble, but who can know what Guo Tian will really look like in the future.
……
The next day, between lunches, Wang Quanan called Guo Tian to his study.
"Guo Tian, from today onwards, you have to follow the teacher to study hard, why leave you alone, you will understand the idea of being a teacher in the future, I hope you can get up early and go to bed late, spend more time on your studies, and achieve something as soon as possible."
Wang Quanan said earnestly to Guo Tian, who looked confused in front of him, and revealed his thoughts to Guo Tian, knowing that it was impossible for Guo Tian to fully understand now.
"This is the key to the school, remember to come to the school early tomorrow to read, and teach you "The Mean" for the teacher in the evening, these are a few books, you put them away."
Guo Tian, who was standing in front of Wang Quanan, still didn't understand, why did Mr. stay and study more by himself every day?
Could it be that the inkstone was broken before, and Mr. punished himself?
It shouldn't be, it can't be punished like this, and it doesn't say that it loses money, this is a denial!
Could it be that I don't study well and the teacher has a dull face?
It's not right, Mr. taught himself to learn, and he passed every classroom test?
Could it be that his parents asked his husband to discipline him?
I haven't heard of it, and my family doesn't have that much money for my husband?
……
Guo Tian thought about many possibilities in his heart, but in the end, he was not sure that for that reason, Mr. trained himself.
But Guo Tian can be sure that he will get up early to read in the future, come to the school every morning to open the door, and lock the door every night, this is not me as a hired worker for my husband!
Holding the "The Mean", "Spring and Autumn", "Historical Records" and "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms" given by Mr., Guo Tian was a little confused, what is the use of these four books?
"Father, why do you stay with Guo Tian to teach him every day, then why do you give me a lecture when you come back so late at night?"
Knowing that Wang Quanan had to go home late every day and teach Guo Tian an hour in the study hall hall, Wang Lan, who was a little appreciative, complained to her father dissatisfied. I have to study less with my father at night, and my father's time is occupied by a child outside.
Comparisons between children are everywhere, especially when they don't see their fathers being good to other people's children.
……
"Guo Tian, Mr. Wang values you very much, you have to study hard."
Guo Yu, a simple farmer, doesn't know how to teach his children, but he stubbornly thinks that it is a good thing that Guo Tian can be so valued by Mr., and ordinary people will not do this.
"You have to study well with Mr. Wang, the family will provide you with study, and you will also take the exam in the future, such as a showman, a jinshi or something, and you will be able to get rid of farming in the future, and you don't have to eat the bowl of rice of the land."
The thoughts of small farmers are vividly expressed, facing the loess with their backs to the sky, and they work hard for a year to watch the sky and eat. Guo Yu hopes that his children and grandchildren will not have to suffer from this. People with merit and fame don't have to be the fighters who go to the battlefield, so there are not so many dangers.
Choices change lives.
If you choose to study and study, you will always have some achievements if you persevere, and you will always get out of the loess.
If you choose the land, then you have to work hard, and the land will probably enrich your granary.
"Daddy, don't worry, I will definitely follow Mr. Mengxue to further my studies. I'm so smart, don't you worry? ”
Guo Tian didn't think about it so much, and he still couldn't understand the twists and turns, so he firmly packed tickets with his father and would study well.
"My grandson is the smartest, and he will definitely be an official in the future." Wang said happily.
……
For many days, Guo Tian walked an hour late every day to study four books with Wang Quanan.
"Guo Tian, I will give you four books, three of which are about the history of the previous dynasties, the ancients said 'Shi Ke is wise', as a teacher, I hope you can learn more truths from it. Today, I will tell you about the article "Zhao Gong". ”
In the sprinkling article of "Zhao Gong", Wang Quanan explained the content and meaning of the words to Guo Tian in detail.
"Lan'er, why are you here? The father is still in class. ”
Seeing Wang Lan standing at the door, Wang Quanan thought that his daughter had something to do with him.
"I'm also here to listen to my father's lectures."
Ignoring Wang Lan, who didn't care about the reaction of the two people in the room, he went directly into the room to find a seat and sit down.
Wang Quanan shook his head and continued to lecture, and an hour passed quickly.
……
In the future, Wang Lan "accompanied" Guo Tian to listen to his father's lectures, and the two naturally became "classmates"!
