Chapter 59: The Secret of Reading
Xu Yuanzuo didn't go to school immediately.
He went to North Street first, bought two candy seeds, and felt the life of the ancient water town. There were acquaintances in the neighborhood along the way, and he also greeted him one after another, changing his once stupid image. Everyone saw that Xu Yuanzuo had been outside for a month, and after he came back, he was reborn, and his temperament was much more wonderful, and he secretly said in his heart: The city is really magical, and even Xu Fool has become a good person!
Xu Yuanzuo naturally doesn't take it to heart in the face of all kinds of unnutritious appreciation, but when he meets a businessman, he will ask a few more words. Especially if there is a young man in the family, it is even more important to ask about the current situation. This is also a preliminary investigation to find out the family situation of the people in the town.
He thought about it, his family is not a local family, and there is no clan to borrow. The most reliable, that is, these neighbors, can be regarded as knowing the roots, and they also have dealings.
Xu Yuanzuo shook all the way to the south of the town, and saw that Shen Xiang was in front of him, and suddenly his heart moved, and he actually walked over.
Shenxiang is close to Zhuli, and the residents are half-farmers and half-merchants, unlike the people of Zhuli, who are half-merchants and half-workers, so the prosperity is far inferior. However, there is a Lin family village in Shenxiang, and there is a big man in the village. It is the first member of the Jiajing 20th annual examination, a high-ranking official who retired from the position of Nanjing Guozi's priest wine, Lu Shusheng.
The reason why Lu Shusheng retired was because the imperial court wanted him to go to Beijing to be the head of the Ministry of Officials - the deputy director of the Organization Department. Therefore, he said that he was sick and returned to his hometown to recuperate.
According to the historical script that Xu Yuanzuo knew, in the early years of Wanli, he finally couldn't resist the imperial court, and reluctantly went to work as a secretary of the Ministry of Rites for a few years, and then resigned and went home. In order to keep him, Zhang Juzheng said to his younger brother Lu Shude: I will soon invite Pingquan Gong to enter the cabinet as a minister, so don't rush back. As a result, Lu Shusheng didn't pay attention to it at all, and still insisted on going home.
Well, yes, he also has a younger brother Lu Shude, who should be the head of the Criminal Department now, and it seems that he will be the governor of Shandong in the future, and his political reputation is excellent.
Xu Yuanzuo saw the blue gray brick wall of the Lu Mansion from a distance, with black tiles on it, which was majestic and magnificent. He stopped, looked again, and then turned back.
Although the house is a neighbor, people are two worlds.
Xu Yuanzuo arrived at the school, and waited for a while before seeing the school dispersed.
Xu Liangzuo trotted out with a group of friends, and suddenly saw his brother standing outside the door, and he was overjoyed, and rushed over with a strange scream, and hugged his arm and hit it. Xu Yuanzuo exercised every day, although his body shape was not good, but his musculoskeletal was extraordinary, and he also sank his shoulders and collided with his younger brother.
Xu Liangzuo took two steps back from the shock, but laughed: "Brother is much stronger!" β
Xu Yuanzuo gave him the candy in his hand and said with a smile: "Divide it with your partners." β
Xu Liangzuo was even more overjoyed, and his eyebrows flew and danced to the friends around him to share. Most of the children studying here are ordinary children, and they are all twelve or thirteen or fourteen years old.
Xu Yuanzuo looked at the group of children, and saw several older children of the same age as him, and bowed their jaws. Those fifteen or sixteen-year-old half-grown children didn't have much friendship with Xu Yuanzuo, so they also nodded, but when they saw that the Xu brothers were suddenly so arrogant, they couldn't help but look back at them.
When the children were almost in trouble, Lu Fuzi happened to come out of it, still holding a book in his hand.
"Xu Yuanzuo, are you back?" Lu Fuzi has already received Xu Yuanzuo's thank you gift, and he is in a good mood.
Xu Yuanzuo saluted the teacher and said, "Come back and thank the teacher, and recruit helpers by the way." β
Lu Fuzi knew that Xu Yuanzuo was talking the other way, but he was still happy in his heart, thinking about the fact that he had been teaching the museum here all these years, he was afraid that Xu Yuanzuo would be the most promising. He asked Xu Yuanzuo about his current situation again, and then sent them home for dinner, and said that he would go to Xu's house to sit in the afternoon.
Xu Yuanzuo guessed that he was going to recommend hired helpers, so he was naturally happy to see it.
When the two brothers returned home, they smelled the smell of fish and rice, and they joked again, and they didn't stop to eat until their mother brought the food to the table.
After eating, Xu Yuanzuo hurried to his younger brother and said, "Recently, I have been reading the "Four Books" hard, and I am going to go next year. β
Xu Liangzuo showed admiration on his face: "Big brother, you are really enlightened." Is this going to end? The master said it would be two years before I could start writing. β
"It's also your brother and my fate, and I have a noble person to carry me, so hurry up." Xu Yuanzuo said again: "If you can start writing a year earlier, you can't say that you can still get a light." β
"That's for the best!" Xu Liangzuo was excited, and said with a sad face: "Studying is really hard, I just hope to pass the exam earlier, so I can have a play." β
Xu Yuanzuo also felt that teenagers could not play games and could only study hard, which was really contrary to biological instinct. However, the imperial examination is a major event in life, a major family event, and even a major family event, and the hardships have to be endured. He said: "I was about to tell you about this method of reading, and you must not hold on to a book and read it to death. He immediately told his younger brother in detail about the classification and recitation method of He Xinyinjiao, afraid that he would not be able to comprehend it, so he went upstairs to get a pen and paper, cut it properly, and made it for him.
"You see, when you copy it, copy the original text first." Xu Yuanzuo casually flipped to the article "Liren" and copied the first sentence: "Zi said that Liren is not benevolent for the sake of beauty." Then he added: "Then don't copy the rest of the commentary, but only copy the commentary on the left." He flashed through his mind and silently wrote: "Place, voice." Yan, in the rebellious. Know, go to the sound. There is benevolence and kindness in the customs. If you choose to live in the middle of nowhere, you will lose your original intention of right and wrong, and you will not know it. β
"That's it." Xu Yuanzuo said: "This piece of paper is the first one, and all the expositions on 'benevolence' in the Analects will be stacked with it in the future. Besides, if you look at the meaning of this text, it means that you should choose a place with benevolent customs when choosing a residence, so it has the meaning of 'conduct', so you have to copy another one and put it in the category of 'conduct'. β
Xu Liangzuo's eyes straightened, and he said, "Brother, you even memorize the "Chapters and Sentences"!" β
Xu Yuanzuo made a face and slapped the back of his head: "Focus on the key points!" β
"Well, the words are also beautiful, black and thick, but they look a little rigid." Xu Liangzuo's qualifications are indeed good, although he is young, his progress is fast, and his words are often praised by Lu Fuzi.
"You don't care if you're dead." Xu Yuanzuo slapped him again: "This is called Taige style, and it can only be written like this in the next exam in the future." You can take this practice post of mine, and if you can write this Cheng dΓΉ, at least you will not be deposed by the examiner because of a bad word. β
Xu Liangzuo pursed his lips and said, "I know." β
Xu Yuanzuo sharpened his knife and did not mistake the woodcutter, and while teaching Liangzuo to classify, he explained the meaning of the text, and he also deepened his impression. However, Xu Liangzuo often said two sentences, "That's not what the master said", which made Xu Yuanzuo tremble.
It's not that I'm worried that I'm wrong, but I know that Lu Fuzi's level is really bad, and no matter how good his qualifications are, his younger brother can't stand being so misleading.
"You memorize the books first, and then my brother will hire a famous teacher for you in the future, which is naturally better than my brother and Master Lu." Xu Yuanzuo said, but in his heart, he calculated the personal relationship, thinking about how to let his younger brother go to the Xu clan to study.
Xu Liangzuo just buried himself in copying books, and when he encountered something that he couldn't eat, he copied two more copies.
