I thought I was coming early, but when I actually came to the school, I realized that I was still late.

Of course, this is not to say that Zhang Jie missed the time, the sun above his head had just risen not long ago, and the family started cooking a lot of time in advance for Zhang Jie's first day of learning, so purely according to the time, Zhang Jie even came early.

But if you compare it to the other children in the school, it is still a little late. Because at this moment, the school is basically full of students.

On the first day of class, it may be to welcome his own students, so the old master also came to the school early, standing at the door, at this time it is definitely impossible for you to sneak into the school, and it is not that you are late, but all of you are early, so no matter what, you can't count your own fault, walk a few steps to the old master, and Zhang Jie, who bent down and saluted, said respectfully: "Master is early!" ”

"Yes!"

Sure enough, the old master who entered the teaching state did not have a smile on his face, he had only heard it before, and the last time I saw him at home, he thought that this old man was very humorous, but now it seems that the rumors are really not groundless.

When I entered the school, I found that the whole school was almost full of people, and I had come to recognize the door yesterday, Zhang Jie's chairs and benches were also well placed, and each child brought their own chairs and benches from home, so there was no need to worry that someone would sit in their own seats.

A corner by the window, this is Zhang Jie's position, when he deliberately chose this place yesterday, the Wang family, who came with him, asked very strangely how to choose such a back position, and was also fooled by Zhang Jie's answer.

I can't tell Wang that the reason why I chose the position of the back row by the window is just because it is convenient to look out at the scenery.

After sitting down gently, I was in the mood to look at my classmates, and there were not many people, far from the scene of seventy or eighty students sitting in a classroom in my own world, and there were always about twenty hairy children.

Because Zhang Jie sat very far behind, he almost glanced at these classmates, most of them were children of the same age as himself, how many were five or six years old, and there were no more than six or seven years old, and it was estimated that if he was too old, the old master would not accept it.

Sure enough, it's similar to what Wang said, the twenty or thirty hairy children in the whole school are dressed up very brightly, everyone is wearing new clothes and new shoes, and the most inferior ones are bought in the county tailor shop.

Of course, I came to Mengxue to study, but I didn't come to compare food and clothing with a group of hairy children, that is, I glanced at everyone in the entire school hall, and I didn't find anything particularly prickly, so I took my eyes back.

The thousand-character text from the third uncle has not been returned, and the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone have not been bought yet, and Zhang Jie originally planned to see if he could make a brush by himself, but when he came to tidy up the tables and chairs yesterday, he knew that the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone were issued by the old master.

Twenty copper plates per person, this money Wang paid happily, Zhang Jie was not good at saying anything, and let the Wang family, who usually didn't even spend a copper indiscriminately, casually spent twenty copper plates for himself.

When the last student came in, Zhang Jie always felt a little familiar, and when he looked up at the window, he saw a familiar figure bowing to the old master.

No wonder I felt that the tiger-headed child who came in behind was a little familiar, it turned out to be the child of the little woman's family in Lingyue Village.

I remember when I went to Ling Yue's house more than a month ago, I saw the little woman asking Ling Yue's mother to borrow money, so it seems that Zhang Jie vaguely knew that this little woman was probably paying for her child's education.

The cost of a silver ingot is not only difficult for a woman like Wang, but also a little woman's family.

I remember the last time I read a letter to her, I knew from the letter that her family head seemed to be coming back soon, and now it's been nearly two months, so how can I say that her family head should also come back.

The little black egg with a tiger's head and a tiger brain sat behind Zhang Jie, and when he passed by Zhang Jie's side, he glanced at Zhang Jie more, and he probably looked at Zhang Jie well.

When the little woman at the door left, she saw the old master come in through the door, and then the old master with a stiff face said, "In the future, if you want to come to the school to learn from you, and you want to be sent by your family, don't come." ”

The old master's words were obviously said to the little black egg behind him, and it was really an iron-faced and selfless old master, who didn't leave the slightest affection when he trained people.

"Today is your first class, so I won't teach you any knowledge, but I'll tell you the rules in the classroom first." Walking to the podium, the old master who looked around at more than 20 schoolchildren said in a condensed voice:

"When reading, do it upright in front of the table, stand upright, have peaceful legs and feet, or stand solemnly to read, you are not allowed to cross your legs, you are not allowed to lie down or lie down to read, violators, hit the palm once."

As the old master's voice fell, he saw that the students who were still loose immediately straightened their waists, obviously afraid that the old master's teaching stick would fall into the palm of their hands.

The expressionless old master inspected the entire school again, and continued: "There is no noise, no reading while chatting, no reading while eating, reading with all your heart, no dozing, no messing, no fugue, browsing attentively, thinking with heart, careful consideration, and careful note-taking, so that you can understand the deep meaning of the book, and really gain something, for the books, you must cherish them, do not damage the books, and do not ......!" ”

Mengxue, this is Mengxue, everything starts from scratch, whether you have been familiar with the surnames of the hundred families before, the thousand-character text, whether you have been able to write words, or have been involved in the eight shares, in this school, everything has to listen to the arrangement of the old master, from the beginning, from scratch.

As long as you don't want to taste what the old master's teaching stick is like, then you have to listen honestly to the old master's talk about these complicated rules, and you have to be respectful and serious on your face, and you don't dare to leave a bad impression on the old master on the first day of learning.

Here, this old man with a dead face on the stage has absolute authority, he said to beat you, then you can only endure it, dare to go home and tell your father, then you are purely begging for a second beating, and no one will stand up for you.

If you make this old master angry, even if he kicks you out of the school, it will be a breeze.

Therefore, like all hairy children, in the autumn of the first year of Yongle, Zhang Jie started his first class.

When he was sitting upright, Zhang Jie's mind was in the sky, saying that it was not long before Zheng He went to the West for the first time, and the Yongle Ceremony was about to be compiled, and he had no chance to see these grand occasions, at least for three or five years, he had to recharge in this small school with peace of mind, and it was not wise to go out at this time, the whole country had just settled down, and his little arms and legs were still honestly growing up for a few years, and he stayed until he was born and the world was stable, at that time, It's time for me to learn something.

Thinking about it like this, looking at the old master on the stage whose mouth was constantly opening and closing, Zhang Jie felt that his future life was just about to become exciting!
