Chapter 220: Four Books and Five Classics
Time flies quickly, and as soon as the Lantern Festival is over, it is time to enter school.
The house I bought was not repaired properly, and the place where I lived was rented for another month. Changming was really assigned to Li Jin's class.
Because of the bean sprouts, Li Jin kept a close eye on Changming.
Changming is now eleven years old. According to the usual pace, if you want to take the exam, you will have to be about 30 years old.
What a waste of time and money!
The first is Mengxue. The textbooks that Mengxue learned are like memorizing them backwards. The handwriting is not very good, and I can write it recognizably. However, it may be that the script writes a lot, Changming writes very quickly, and there are very few ink balls. Still a bit of an advantage.
Before the Chinese New Year, Li Jin was very happy to memorize more than a dozen Mongolian books such as rote memorization of the three-character scripture. The interpretation of it is going to be completed in another half a year.
If you are long-term, you can pick it up in the half-year exam. Leave the Mongolian class. You can start learning the Four Books and the Five Classics.
Among the four books and five classics, the first things to be studied are "The Book of Filial Piety", "University", and "The Mean". These three books must be able to be memorized and the meaning must be known. You can also write the meaning of the scriptures according to the sentence given. These three books have diarrhea every day, to the point of memorization.
Then he began to study the Analects and Mencius. There is no mistake in the order.
People with background basically have to finish learning Mengxue and filial piety, learning, Yong, Theory, and Meng before the age of seven or eight.
Then immediately after that, we will begin to study the five books of "Book of Songs", "Book of Songs", "Zhou Yi", "Book of Rites", and "Zuo Chuan". These five books are also called the Five Classics.
These five books are very difficult. After reading and memorizing five books, choose one book to study in depth.
After studying the four books and five classics, it is basically more than ten years. Ten years of hard study, but it's not about playing.
According to Li Jin's estimate, Changming was about thirty years old when he got off the exam. As for failing the exam, it is another way of saying.
Changming's first step now is to enter the gate of the academy, and the rest is all up to personal self-awareness. At the age of 30, it is still ideal. On the first day of enrollment, Li Jinming clearly explained this road to Changming.
If you want to learn, you still really have to take the road of scientific research.
If you want to be a teacher, you naturally have to be famous. Chang Ming knew that the road ahead was difficult, so he went home to discuss with Yuanbao.
"According to what my husband said, if I want to pass the exam, I will probably have to be about 30 years old. I want to be a gentleman and open a private school. But if you are thirty years old, the family will depend on you. ”
It's really a bit unaffordable.
At a young age, some of them can't stand to study until they are thirty years old to see whether the road ahead is feasible.
Some retreated.
Yuan Bao said with a smile.
"There is no shortage of food or clothing in our family. The house was also bought. You can read in peace. Anyway, there are just two of us, how to live comfortably. If you want to be a teacher, you will definitely have to take the next exam. At least you have to have a child's name on your shoulders.
I have everything in the house, and you study hard. What the gentleman said to you, I don't think you have to be thirty years old to end up. It's just a few books, you memorize it hard, memorize it first, if you don't understand it, take it and ask Mr. Don't stuff yourself.
Besides, most readers are stuck in arithmetic. You're good at arithmetic, don't be afraid of that. I think you're in your twenties and you're going to be able to take the test. You don't have to be thirty years old at all. ”
The imperial examination, like the college entrance examination, is a single-plank bridge. Who can be harder than the other?
Yuanbao is fully confident that Changming will be familiar with reading and reciting the Four Books and Five Classics. If you want to write the scriptures, you can directly consult Zhou Shanchang or Li Jin.
Don't be afraid of losing face.
It's strange that you can still fail the exam if you study like this!
