Chapter 472 The book is the thing of the sages,

On this day, Shang Ruonan asked Hongyi to send one of his own stickers to Xu's mansion, saying that Shang Ruonan wanted to see his Lord Xu.

According to the customs of this place, Shang Ruonan should also follow Kou Ziyu and call Xu Shanchang his uncle. But Shang Ruonan didn't, but went to communicate with Xu Shanchang as a fourth lady of the business. This made Xu Shanchang also very stressed.

Moreover, she is also very bold, and when she handed Xu Shanchang a post, she mentioned that she would bring her sister who wrote a book to visit with her.

Originally, Shang Ruonan thought that Xu Shanchang would return to him every few days, but he didn't expect to let his subordinates bring back the reply sticker at that time. said that he invited Shang Ruonan and his sister who wrote the book to come to Xu's Mansion for the first time.

Shang Ruonan also took his second sister to Xu's Mansion when he was young. It was still the carriage driven by Qingyun, and the green and red clothes accompanied each other and went.

When I arrived at Xu's Mansion, because I had handed over the post before, the people from Xu's Mansion still opened the door to welcome the carriage in. After all, it's a woman. After entering, someone led the carriage outside and stopped in front of a courtyard in the outer courtyard. Then after getting out of the carriage, he took the person to Xu Shanchang's study.

It was only in front of Xu Shanchang's study that he heard a burst of laughter. A subordinate came over and said:

"Please wait a minute, Miss Four, the prince of Huayang is also here, Rong Xiao will go back and say goodbye."

Hearing that Ouyang Xu was also there, Shang Ruonan smiled and said:

"Okay, you go, we know you and the prince of Huayang."

The little guy nodded, hurriedly entered, and after a while, he saw Huayang Shizi standing at the door in person, looked at the sisters standing under the porch, and bowed:

"Second Miss, Fourth Miss, I didn't expect to meet you here. Hurry up, please! ”

"I've seen the prince."

The two sisters said in unison, but the way they saluted was a little different, Shang Xianglan was a gift, while Shang Ruonan was a big grin!

Ouyang Xu glanced at Shang Ruonan, smiled lightly, and gently opened the curtain for their sisters.

Xu Shanchang was actually a little unhappy that Ouyang Xu did this, which was a loss of gentlemanly courtesy, but when he saw the two girls who came in, Xu Shanchang's eyes also lit up.

Needless to say, Shang Ruonan recognized it, and knew that this girl looked atmospheric and had brains, and she would not be confused at all when she spoke.

But looking at Shang Xianglan, she is a girl full of aura. As soon as you stand there, you can see that this girl should be a person with a pen and ink in her heart.

And this girl looks much more beautiful than this fourth lady. The so-called gentleman loves sex, and when he sees a beautiful woman, he will naturally take a second look, even if it is Xu Shanchang.

"The little woman wants to meet Xu Shanchang!"

After Shang Xianglan came in, he saluted Xu Shanchang directly.

Xu Shanchang raised his hand and raised it weakly, and then asked people to serve tea and invite the two little girls to sit down. Ouyang Xu also found a place to sit down very casually, and he could see it. Ouyang Xu has a good relationship with Xu Shanchang. Therefore, it can be seen that he can be so free in this study.

Shang Ruonan spoke first, reached out and took a burden from the red clothes behind him, and said with a smile:

"Mountain Chief, I talked to Mountain Chief last time. Go back and talk to my sister again, you see, these are the two books my sister has written these days, one is a book on how to enlighten children. Because we still have younger brothers and sisters in our family, the second sister has to teach the sisters every day. So I wrote this book. This is a book for a slightly more advanced child. "Ninth

"When my sister was sorting out these books, I was in Shuncheng. This is the first time I have seen these two books, and I ask the mountain chief to correct them. ”

Shang Ruonan handed over the two books in his hand, and the mountain chief also reached out to take them. I opened the book and read it carefully.

And Ouyang Xu also stood over and took a look, then walked to Shang Ruonan's side, reached out and picked up a book next to Shang Ruonan and opened it.

Ouyang Xu was surprised when he saw it and said:

"Isn't this the kind of font written by the second lady I saw last time? How much time does it take to copy it down like this? I heard that you are going to open a book house? ”

"Hui Shizi, this is not copied, this is our engraving and printing."

Shang Ruonan replied lightly. Ouyang Xu looked at the sisters in surprise, and Shang Xianglan looked at him calmly, as if she was looking at the embroidery on her skirt. Ignored Ouyang Shizi's words.

After a while, the mountain chief read the first book, and then read the second book, and said:

"This book is good, but I'm afraid some of it is not applicable. Three-year-old children, just catchy and have to bring handouts. Isn't it easy for children to learn like this? In my opinion, beginners, endorsement first, literacy, and character learning first. ”

Shang Xianglan raised her head and said:

"Back to the mountain, at the beginning, when I wanted to learn Lan, I was also literate and learned first, and I followed the knowledge of memorization. One day, teaching my little sister at home and letting my little sister read and endorse the book, the fourth sister saw it and said: 'Reading doesn't know righteousness, it's better not to read!' ’”

As he spoke, he looked back and pointed at Shang Ruonan. Then he said:

These words woke up Xiang Lan. It is indeed better not to read only without knowing the meaning. The same word, in this book is this meaning, and changing a book is another meaning, and children don't understand, why did they change the meaning in another place? If a boy wants to rule the country and level the world, he will know righteousness. And girls want to cultivate themselves together, but also to know righteousness. After knowing the righteousness, and then endorse it, you can get twice the result with half the effort. ”

"Knowing the truth and learning to be a man is something that should be cultivated from an early age. Why didn't you give it when you were a child? ”

Xu Shan paused for a moment and said:

"So, some of the books and these books that your sister sent last time were all written by you?"

Shang Xianglan thought about it and said:

"I can only say that I sorted out the first draft, not that I wrote it. I'm just compiling some of the ideas of my predecessors into a book. Now we have printed nearly 50,000 books, and when the book house is opened, it will be on the shelves. I either rent it or sell it, just to make it available to as many people as possible. ”

"So, in order to organize the content of some books, I also found a number of books to read first. I just sorted out such a few sets of books. I will find some more books to sort out and print in the future. ”

"Book house? What bookhouse? ”

Xu Shanchang said with a slight frown.

"Chief, we are going to open a shop that sells books, and of course, students who don't have money can also come and read books for free."

Shang Ruonan stood up and replied.

"Nonsense, this book is the stuff of sages, how can it be reduced to buying and selling? See if you can sort out these books, and you are also a woman with a certain amount of knowledge. The last time your sister came and said that you wanted to study in the academy, I already thought it was ridiculous, you actually want to sell books? ”
