Chapter 12: The Rafter: Mentor

The first elective class is scheduled for Saturday morning at 10:30 a.m.

In order to leave a good impression on this teacher Ye Fangyu and persuade her to be her mentor, the four girls of 3306 not only got up early in the morning to tidy up their images, but also recited the basic knowledge of ancient Chinese architecture again and again at the request of He Ying, which can be regarded as full preparation.

Chu Mingchen, who disappeared for two days, changed his hippie smiling face in the past, picked up his schoolbag for the first time, and was the first to appear in the classroom, helping the four girls occupy the best position.

He still has a rosewood plaque around his neck, but it is not the five-god wooden plaque left by his parents but scarred by him.

Seeing He Ying and others coming in, he beckoned a few people to sit down.

He Ying and Gu Zhaodi did not mention his embarrassment at the police station that day.

Lou Xinyue didn't open any pot, pointed to the wooden sign around Chu Mingchen's neck, and smiled sarcastically: "I heard that you cried to death that day, just for this piece of wood?" ”

"You know what? This is Lao Tzu's talisman! ~" Chu Mingchen was afraid that Lou Xinyue would reach out and grab it, so he hurriedly hid the wooden sign in his clothes, "The gold is expensive, don't break it!" ”

"Stingy!"

Lou Xinyue pursed her lips, even more curious about what happened to Chu Mingchen that day. sat next to Gu Zhaodi and wanted her to talk in detail.

Gu Zhaodi didn't want to say it, but Lou Xinyue, the boss, gave too much, so she avoided the important and lightly told Chu Mingchen about the experience of fighting the gangsters, which caused Lou Xinyue to exclaim again and again.

As for the part where she cried bitterly, she paused slightly and said in a low voice:

"The boy doesn't flick when he has tears, but he hasn't reached the sad place. Perhaps, that wooden sign is really too expensive! ”

"Oh ~ what's that! I'll ask my dad to buy it and give it to each of you! ”

As the two spoke, half of the seats in the classroom were full.

While everyone was whispering and discussing what this Teacher Ye looked like and what the content of this class was, He Ying heard the echo of high heels stepping on the tiles, faintly coming from the empty and quiet corridor.

She immediately made a "shhh

The next second.

The classroom door was opened, and the first door was a slender foot with a round toe and black high-heeled leather shoes.

Then, a middle-aged lady dressed in a crimson cheongsam walked in from outside the door and slowly walked onto the podium.

He Ying and a few people sat in the front row, and finally saw the true face of this Teacher Ye at this time.

Her thick black hair is meticulously coiled behind her head, her slender cheeks, slightly wide cheeks, and slender and black and white eyes, although not glamorous, but dignified and elegant.

Especially a black mole on the right chin invisibly brought her an indescribable aura.

"Students, good morning, I'm Ye Fangyu." Her voice exudes the taste of a bit of Beijing rhyme drums, and the tone is very beautiful, "From today onwards, I will teach you the elective course "Theory and Practice of Love". ”

As she spoke, she turned around and wrote the eight big characters on the blackboard with chalk.

The handwriting is hard and strong, and it is not at all like that written by such a thin wrist.

When the students under the podium saw that she was empty-handed and did not hold the lecture script, they became more curious about the course and put down their mobile phones to listen carefully.

"Next, I will first sort out the skeleton of this course for you." Ye Fangyu was not in a hurry to start the lecture, but wrote three more subheadings below the course title.

Preparation before falling in love.

Practical practices and etiquette in love.

Choices and aftermath after falling in love.

Seeing this stylized title, Chu Mingchen immediately understood, why is this Teacher Ye still single at the age of Benwu?

She does not regard love as a life experience, but as a subject in research. I just don't know what she can research, scientific theory and feasible practice?

It is different from Chu Mingchen's curiosity.

As soon as Lou Xinyue saw the setting of this kind of course, she knew that this elective course was selling dog meat on the head of a sheep, and on the surface it was about "love studies", but in fact it was still philosophy, and her previous expectations were lowered again.

And He Ying and Gu Zhaodi, although they didn't come to learn to fall in love, but in order to be able to complete the credits, they still listened to the lectures step by step.

Only Tang Guoguo, whose academic performance has always been at the bottom, feels that he has opened the door to a new world.

It was the first time she knew that there were so many ways to fall in love. In order to let her first love start as soon as possible, this silly girl not only listened very carefully, but also copied all the words on the blackboard on the notebook one by one.

"So today, let's first learn the first lesson of preparation before falling in love, the principle of choosing a love partner."

Ye Fangyu said, and wrote four small words on another blackboard:

"The right door."

Unbeknownst to her, as soon as she finished speaking, the classroom was in an uproar, and then there was a whispered discussion:

"It's a new era now, why do you do feudal again!"

"Yes! I thought I was watching a costume TV series. ”

"It's really annoying! ~ My parents are this kind of old thinking, but whenever someone chases me, they have to ask this and that, I feel that falling in love is the same as checking the household registration. ”

"yes, I'm also very annoyed by this statement."

"Eh, stop talking, let's listen to the teacher."

Ye Fangyu was obviously not surprised by this kind of scene, she did not show the slightest displeasure, but was very satisfied with the reaction of her classmates, and continued with a smile:

"Although it has been a good match since ancient times, young people in the new era should have different voices, and I am happy to have an in-depth exchange with you after finishing this section."

As she spoke, the classroom gradually returned to quiet.

The saying that the right person comes from the Song Dynasty's "Gui'er Collection", which is a metaphor for a marriage relationship. As a joint subject-predicate phrase, the door-to-door pair can be equated with the door-to-door pair. So when it comes to 'portal', we have to mention the concept of architecture. ”

Ye Fangyu said, picked up the chalk again, and drew two simple "doors" on the blackboard.

When it came to "architecture", He Ying and others were a little surprised.

Associating love with architecture, they are unheard of. And this seemingly boring topic, with such a start, instantly becomes interesting.

"In ancient times, two doors were called doors, and single doors were households."

Ye Fangyu turned around, pointed to a door with two door panels, and then pointed to a door with only one door panel, and said:

"In architectural interpretation, a 'house pair' is two single-leaf households, equivalent to a two-leaf 'door'. Gate', from 'two households'. Translated, 'door', when 'household pair'. That is, the door is paired with the door, and the door is paired with the door. And we all know that in ancient times, only the mansions of the powerful could be equipped with double doors, and the houses of the common people could only have single doors. Therefore, this 'family pair' can also represent a relationship between class status and architectural level. ”

The explanation was rigorous and interesting, and the students present, including He Ying and others, were also deeply fascinated, and the classroom was quiet and could smell the needle.

"Then, when this reciprocal relationship extends to secular marriage, we can see both aspects more clearly."

Ye Fangyu took advantage of the trend to draw two lines on the blackboard:

"In science architecture, we call the main entrance the door and the door the house. When the building level of the families on both sides of the marriage is the same, it means that the entrance and the household are equal, and it can be understood that the door is opposite. In the class division, the powerful are called the door, and the poor are called the household. When the class status of the two parties to the marriage is the same, the family background and fame are equal, which is the so-called family match. ”

"On the other hand, if the family is not right, it is a mismatch of class status; If the portals are not opposite, the building level is not equal. This kind of high door Mo pair was also called marrying or climbing high branches in ancient times. Either way, in a feudal society with an extremely strict hierarchy, it is an extremely difficult way to combine, and tragedies are frequent. ”

"For example, the peacock we are familiar with flying southeast, Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, all of them are beating mandarin ducks, or separated by yin and yang, or separated by heaven."

Ye Fangyu said and walked back to the podium.

Hearing the sighs of the students in the classroom, he paused the lecture and suggested that if everyone had any questions or other ideas, they could raise their hands.

Hearing that they needed to speak, the students closed their mouths and bowed their heads secretly, hoping not to be noticed by Teacher Ye.

Although Chu Mingchen felt that the course was a bit interesting, Teacher Ye seemed to be a little pessimistic, I am afraid that it was not related to what happened to her when she was young? But he didn't dare to say this, and naturally he wouldn't raise his hand.

Gu Zhaodi has never regarded love as a compulsory subject for herself, so this kind of remark will not have any impact on her, and she is too lazy to take the initiative to speak.

And Lou Xinyue, who has always had no shortage of suitors, only had Yuan Lei, an idol in his heart, so he didn't even understand what the door and household meant when he just brushed Weibo, so he buried his head deeper.

Tang Guoguo, who originally wanted to ask questions, felt that the tragedies that Mr. Ye said were the fate of himself and Wang Jinze. When I was depressed, I sighed heavily, and I didn't seem to have the heart to listen to the connected lessons.

Ye Fangyu glanced at everyone in the classroom and asked, "Then does anyone have anyone to tell me, what do you think of the content of the teacher's speech?" If no one raises their hand, I'll call for names. ”

Seeing Ye Fangyu making a gesture to get some rosters, the classroom was quieter.

He Ying saw Tang Guoguo's changes in his eyes, and wanted to find a time to comfort him after class, but he was afraid that she wouldn't listen, so after thinking about it, he raised his hand to Ye Fangyu.

"This female classmate, you say."

He Ying got up, and the classroom fell silent again.

"Teacher Ye, I think the tragedy you just said can't all be attributed to the fact that the door is not right."

"Oh?" Ye Fangyu looked at He Ying, her eyes were full of inquiry, "Then what do you think is the reason?" ”

"I think we can't abandon the general environment of ancient feudal society."

He Ying thought for a moment and continued:

"Under the feudal society, men and women are not equal, so women do not have the right to choose their love partners, and most of them are blind and dumb marriages. Therefore, the material basis that can be seen at a glance has become the most important prerequisite for the conclusion of marriage in ancient times. But we only know about those tragedies, but we don't know whether the woman who obeys the orders of her parents will be happy after marriage. The modern concept of marriage is very different. ”

"Go on." Ye Fangyu smiled and nodded in response.

"I think that material, family and even growth experience only represent our initial portal, and the subsequent knowledge, vision and three views are the standard to measure whether two people are suitable."

When He Ying said this, he silently put his hand on Tang Guoguo's shoulder and gently held it:

"Therefore, if you want to have a relationship that can blossom and bear fruit, it is not so much that the two of them should be matched, but that they are evenly matched."

"Evenly matched?" Ye Fangyu was surprised that the girl in front of her had such an insight at such a young age, and nodded with satisfaction, "Well said!" This is also the purpose of this course, today's door is no longer applicable to the ancient interpretation, it is also an assessment of our own comprehensive quality, not only material, but also about the fit of the soul......"

What Teacher Ye said later, Tang Guoguo couldn't hear it anymore.

In her eyes, He Ying, who stood against the light, was extremely tall and tall, and seemed to be a bright light that illuminated her new life.

And the words "evenly matched" will always be branded in her heart.

The one-hour elective class ended quickly, and He Ying dragged Ye Fangyu back on the grounds that he had a question to ask for advice.

It wasn't until the other classmates left that the rest of the people gathered around and showed their intentions.

"Teacher Ye." Chu Mingchen smiled all over his face, and directly moved out of the backer, "The five of us want to sign up for the ancient construction competition, but there is no mentor, and we know you from Professor Tan Weimin, so I specially came to invite you out of the mountain!" ”

As soon as Chu Mingchen's words fell, the smile on Ye Fangyu's face disappeared in an instant.

Glancing at the five people, he said coldly: "You guys should find someone else." ”
