Du Jinning raised his eyes from the book, smiled at him, and raised his hand to make a gesture: "I have won awards." ”

In ancient times, the material was not abundant, and those who could eat to become fat were almost synonymous with wealth, which gave rise to the word "rich". The little fat man in front of him is not only fat, but also young, it can be seen that he is enlightened early and has a good family background, and he may still be from one of the several major families in Lishui County.

Seeing that Du Jinning had a very good attitude, Zhou Rui leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Are you really unforgettable?" Isn't it easy to learn anything? My uncle said, with your level, the county exam is no problem, why are you still studying in Class B? If you take the exam early, and then you will be promoted to the Jinshi, wouldn't you have to study again? How nice that would be. ”

Du Jinning couldn't help but wonder.

I didn't expect this little fat man to be not only a well-known person, but also a teenager who was tired of school.

"Then why don't you work hard and be promoted to Class A as soon as possible, so that you can go to the scientific examination?" She asked Zhou Ruidao.

"Well, I want to, too." Zhou Rui's face was loveless, "It's hard to say that my qualifications are stupid, and it took me a lot of effort to get promoted to Class B." He glanced at Du Jinning enviously, "It's so good to be like you, it's not hard to learn anything." ”

Du Jinning shook his head: "How can there be such a good thing?" It took a lot of effort for me to do this. She lowered her voice and pretended to be mysterious, "You don't know, on the surface, everyone praises me for being smart, but in fact, I am working hard behind the scenes, which makes everyone think that I am a prodigy." ”

"Really?" Zhou Rui was a little unconvinced.

Du Jinning nodded vigorously.

Zhou Rui sighed and patted Du Jinning's shoulder: "Alas, it's not easy for everyone!" ”

"Mr. Gu is here." Suddenly, someone shouted.

Those who used to eat and talk in the church house, or stand up and walk around, all quickly sat down and sat with their hands tied, and the pin drop was instantly heard in the church room.

A young man in his early thirties walked in with a pile of things.

Everyone stood up in unison and bowed: "Hello sir." ”

Du Jinning is not very used to these rhythms, and his actions are half a beat slower than everyone else.

Mr. Gu glanced at the teaching house and said to a young man: "Lin Hengping, is the sesame stuffed bun this morning delicious?" ”

The young man was a little stunned, not understanding why the master asked him this, but he still replied, "It's delicious." ”

When Mr. Gu asked, everyone subconsciously looked at Lin Hengping, and after seeing the sesame stuffing at the corners of his mouth, they all laughed out loud. Zhou Rui especially smiled happily, leaning forward and back, and slapping the table with his palm.

Lin Hengping was inexplicable, and then he came to his senses after being reminded by his tablemate, and quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe off the black sesame stuffing at the corner of his mouth.

"Alright." Mr. Gu raised his hand, stopped everyone's laughter, and gestured to Du Jinning.

When she stood up, he said, "This is your new classmate Du Jinning, I think everyone saw it yesterday." ”

Everyone nodded.

Mr. Gu said: "In yesterday's exam, he not only did he get excellent in all the test papers of Class B, but he also got excellent in the test questions of Class A. ”

Except for those who have a background at home and know the results of yesterday's exam, everyone's eyes on Du Jinning suddenly changed.

Yesterday, Du Jinning did not leave a good impression on them. Although the cold-faced Hades were hateful and deliberately embarrassed, Du Jinning dared to do it against Yan Cen like that, and they still felt that this person was too prickly.

Moreover, this contest between the student and Mr. ended with Mr. retreating, which shows that Du Jinning's background is very hard. In addition, Yan Cen kept saying that Du Jinning only learned to read and write more than a month ago, and everyone thought that she was just at the level of Mengtong. A Mengtong who has just learned the "Three Character Classic" went to Class B to listen to the class, so their previous efforts and the difficulty of the first-level exam are not a joke?

Now Mr. Gu said that he had excellent test questions in Class A, which was completely incredible.

But although Mr. Gu is now a Mr. Discipline, he is different from Yan Cen, he has real talent and real learning, especially arithmetic, and no one in the academy can match him. He is in the arithmetic classes of Class A, Class B, and Class C, because he is funny, has no gentleman's frame, is honest and fair, and is quite popular with students. Although he is still a talent now, it is because he has repeatedly kept filial piety to his elders and delayed the scientific examination.

He said that Du Jinning's class A exam questions were excellent, which should not be nonsense.

Du Jinning was a little embarrassed by Mr. Gu's words, stood up and arched his hand at Mr. Gu and his classmates, and said, "It's just a fluke." ”

Seeing this, Mr. Gu was very satisfied. walked up to Du Jinning, put down the things he was holding, and said, "Your books and the four treasures of the study." ”

Du Jinning was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly thanked him: "How can Mr. Lao go and get it?" It's good for students to go on their own. ”

"Your hand is hurt, it's inconvenient, I'll bring it to you by the way." Mr. Gu's attitude was gentle, but he couldn't say that he was warm, "If you have anything, you can find me." He bowed his head slightly and turned to leave.

As soon as he left, there was a lot of discussion in the teaching hall, which was even more lively than before Mr. Gu came, and the topic of discussion was naturally Du Jinning's exam yesterday, and most of his classmates still felt incredulous.

At this time, a tall man walked in outside the door, it was Tang Qikang who I had seen yesterday, and the students all shut up, and they all got up to say hello to Mr. Tang, and when they sat down, there was silence in the room.

Tang Qikang glanced at the room, his eyes paused for a moment on Du Jinning, and then began to talk about the class.

He was talking about the Book of Shang. He first paraphrased, and then put the understanding and doctrine of each commentary into it, and expounded his own views, Du Jinning listened, only felt that he had gained a lot, and his understanding of the "Book of Shang" was deeper.

She couldn't help but sigh in her heart, no wonder everyone is proud to be able to enter the academy, the level of the gentleman here is really not covered, Mr. Tang has such a talent as soon as he introduces people, I don't know how wonderful those Jinshi and Jinshi talk about classes.

"Du Jinning, what do you think of the "Yu Shu Da Yu Mo" I talked about just now?"

Seeing that Du Jinning was suddenly asked, everyone looked at her with wide eyes.

Du Jinning got up, thought for a while, and said: "The human heart is in danger, and the Taoist heart is slight; But the essence is the only one, and it is allowed to be stubborn. ”

"What's the explanation?"

"One is said to be specialized, attentive to one, dedicated to one realm, not partial, not scattered, not mixed, unique and unchanging, and the use of the Tao. Therefore, a gentleman is stubborn and does not lose, and a person can have a good heart, and his spirit is refined. People are more than one, and this is the only law of nature......"

Tang Qikang nodded, and a smile appeared on his serious face: "It's good to be out of the box and have your own understanding." ”

"He really knows."

"Sounds amazing."

Where did the allusion he just quote come from? Why haven't I heard of it? ”

The students whispered below.
