Seeing that Yang Nan said humbly, Li He shook his head and smiled: "This is a bad word, you and I are very close to each other, and in the future, future generations will become good friends in the world, you are young and strong, and the future is long, but the old man is in his old age, maybe the Li family will have to take refuge in the Yang family in the future!"

The good friendship of Jiuzhou is usually like this, but whenever the ancestors of the two families have contacts and affection, as long as there is nothing wrong with the children of later generations, they will generally take care of each other.

Yang Nan smiled slightly and said, "Don't dare to be, if the Li family has a useful place for the students, how can the students dare to resign?"

The two gossiped for a while, and Li He ordered the housekeeper to let Yang Nan look at the servants and maids one by one, a three-entry mansion, at least twenty or so subordinates to wait for Fang is appropriate, Li He is a good person to the end, and he wants to make friends with Yang Nan, which is very easy to do.

Sturdy servants, delicate maids, gardeners with outstanding skills, even gatekeepers and watchmen are all available, plus a housekeeper and five housekeepers brought by Yang Nan, it seems to be the atmosphere of starting a family in an instant.

These servants, Yahuan and other subordinates can be regarded as Li He's congratulatory gifts to congratulate Yang Nan on the establishment of his family, there is no slavery in Jiuzhou, these subordinates have their own families, and they are just working in Yang's mansion.

Yang Nan felt that this Confucian old man valued love and righteousness, and also received this favor, after the two sat down in the living room to rest, Li He took out a document voucher and said: "This is a township study document, this county Wuzhi County has asked me to open a township school in Xianshuzhuang, this village of more than 30,000 people are divided into more than 1,000 households!"

According to this calculation, the number of young children in this village is not less than seven hundred, Wu Zhi County adheres to the sage's 'education without class' purpose, so to open this township school, now the front yard of the virtuous nephew is spacious, it can be used as the book of the academy, if the virtuous nephew opens a academy, it will be able to solve the urgent need of no learning here. ”

Yang Nan nodded slightly, and said, "Xianshuzhuang is only ten miles away from the city, why don't the young children in the village go to the academy in the city to be taught?"

Li He shook his head and smiled: "Every household in this village is eager to grow tea and pick tea to make tea, and the family background is only average, how can they have the spare strength to support their children to and from the city? Although I am in the Dahuang Dynasty, it is inevitable that there will be Xiao Xiao's junior to do that abduction, and it is okay for teenagers to study in the city academy, but it is difficult for these young children under the age of fourteen to be left unattended. ”

Yang Nan then understood why the streets and alleys of Xianshuzhuang did not listen to the sound of reading, but only heard the naughty children's play, no matter which dynasty and which generation, the style of literature and education can not fall anywhere, the most desolate Beizhou in Jiuzhou is also the academy everywhere, the sound of books is loud, a Xianshuzhuang with more than 30,000 mouths and 700 children actually does not open a township school, if someone sues him, the county magistrate will not fall into the notorious reputation of 'misleading people's children and contempt for Confucianism'?

Scholars who are aspiring to the imperial examination will never be the enlightenment teacher of a group of children, although there are many Confucian students in Guodecheng, but they also disdain to be the teachers of children in the township school, and none of them can compare with Li He, the old Confucian, Yang Nan has the reputation of returning from overseas study tours, plus Li He's strong recommendation, gold and silver dots, the matter of the township school in Xianshuzhuang has fallen.

Yang Nan figured out the joints, so he agreed: "The seniors are blue-eyed, and the younger generations do not shirk, so this Xianshuzhuang Township School is called 'Shuren Academy', from tomorrow, it will begin to recruit young children, who are over eight years old, under fourteen years old can be admitted to the hospital to be taught, although the younger generations are only shallow in learning, but they will do their best." ”

Li He nodded and said with a smile: "What a Shuren Academy, the so-called ten years of trees, a hundred years of people, although the name of the academy seems ordinary, but the meaning is far-reaching, so, the old man will order someone to send tables, chairs, utensils, pens, ink, paper and inkstones tomorrow for the needs of the virtuous nephew." ”

Opening a township school, just to be an enlightenment teacher, a fairy tree village township school does not have to be so grand, Yang Nan waved his pen, on a plaque dragon flying phoenix dance wrote 'Shuren Academy' four gilded characters, ordered the five ghosts to hang it in the door of the main house, the academy is officially open to the public.

Xianshuzhuang can actually be called Xianshu Village, Xianshu Village Chief has already been instructed by Li He, posted a notice in the village, told the people about the opening of the academy, every household is busy making tea, is worried about the stubborn children who are uncontrolled at home, at this time I heard that Li He invited a gentleman who returned from an overseas study tour to teach, and immediately sent all his children over.

Placing a study hall, preparing tables and chairs, hanging portraits, and burning incense to the ancestors, this Shuren Academy was officially established.

Three days later.

Yang Nan took Lai Ha and the five ghosts to slightly click on the children gathered in his own academy, there were 731 people, and these more than 700 children dressed in small Confucian clothes gathered in the wide Yang mansion, which was not crowded.

Every child is playful by nature, Li He's private house they have long wanted to come in to have a look, and now they have really entered the Yang Mansion, one by one with their dark little eyes open and looking around, there are many idle people in the village, and many parents of children have come to watch together, there are many adults present, and the naughty children dare not come nonsense.

Yang Nan looked at the more than 700 students in the front yard, and a dream-like feeling arose in his heart, once upon a time, in his previous life, he had also substituted for the rural primary school, and the reverence of the country children for Mr. was far better than that in the city, just like the respect of a peasant to a learned person is far better than that of a rich gentry.

These children are innocent and simple, all of them are clever, but they are like pieces of uncarved jade and gold!

Every child is enrolled in school with pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and bonus table, and more than 700 farmers have sent thousands of taels of tables!

Shuren Academy opened on the first day to receive a thousand taels of silver, but compared with other academies, far inferior, Jiuzhou heavy text, the style of literature rises and falls, related to the achievements of the local government, although Dongzhou is not as good as Nanzhou, Zhongzhou and other cultural continent inheritance, but also produced a lot of Confucian masters, if you can read and break sentences, explain etiquette, it seems to be superior.

Yang Nan had already prepared the tables and chairs in the hall, and the portraits of the Confucian sages of the past dynasties were hung on the walls of the hall, but there was a portrait standing in the main hall, squeezing the ancient sages aside, and the person in the painting with a transcendent status was not someone else, but Yang Nan himself......

After the Taoism settled the world, Yang Nan became the patriarch of the Taoist family, the Taishang Immortal Emperor, the Confucian sage, and even the Dahuang Dynasty belonged to the Yang family, and Yang Nan's status as the Taizu Immortal Emperor naturally far exceeded the Confucian sage.

Not only the newly opened Shuren Academy is so furnished, but any academy in the world of Jiuzhou is also furnished like this, the statue of Taizu Immortal Emperor is in the center, and the rest of the Confucian sages of the past dynasties are aside, so that Yang Nan wants to salute his portrait, thinking about it, he also feels a little funny in his heart.

Yang Nan led his newly recruited 700 disciples to burn incense and bow to the portraits of the saints three times before sitting upright in the hall and accepting the apprenticeship of his disciples.

Confucianism accepts apprentices, talking about etiquette, master and apprentice meet, bow down and bow, but there is no need to kneel three times and knock nine times, more than 700 children have already been taught by their families, and at this moment, they also bow down to Yang Nan and shout: "Disciple meet Mr."

Yang Nan smiled faintly and said: "Sit down, Xianshuzhuang Township School is opened, adhering to the teachings of the sage, I am a teacher for the first time, and I have received seven hundred disciples, and I still have to concentrate on learning in the future, otherwise, he will not be allowed to say that he is my apprentice!"

When the seven hundred elementary school students saw the black-faced gentleman at the top of the house, they were very stern when they said this, and the ring ruler in their hands was more than an inch thick.

If they knew that it was not an ordinary Confucian student who taught them to enlighten, but the supreme Taizu Immortal Emperor himself, I don't know how they would feel......

If Yang Nan doesn't accept it, he will accept these seven hundred disciples, but he can't teach casually, as long as a few of these seven hundred Confucian students can become a climate, it will not be in vain for him to become immortals.

The study of enlightenment is not complicated, it is nothing more than reading words, reading poetry, and telling stories.

Yang Nan's chest has many stories like cow hair, when he was a child, under the strict supervision of his grandfather, he read all the classics of Jiuzhou, and at this time he used it to teach a group of children, which is really easy to catch and effortless!

This word reads people, people, stands, stands, and leans, that is to say, to be a person to be right, to stand upright, but also to get along well with others, relying on each other, otherwise this hermbal can not stand, can not be a man. ”

At the beginning of the class, Yang Nan drew a big character on the white wall in the hall, and began to talk about the basic requirements of being a person and the relationship between the evolution of the person.

The study of enlightenment has no law, or teaching a thousand character texts, or teaching the three-character scripture, or just teaching the practice of words and literacy, but Yang Nan has a unique ingenuity, talking about things with words, and talking about the present and the past.

He said the source, relationship, and connotation of a word in simple terms, easy to understand, and each word has a small story, which was eloquent and endless, and later, the original noisy 700 children listened to it with relish, and unconsciously held their breath and listened to the stories, and no longer felt that going to school was a boring and unbearable thing.

People, heaven, earth, law, heart, although the first class only taught five words, but enough to tell five stories, Yang Nan's clear voice, beautiful stories, not only made more than 700 children listen leisurely, but also made many onlookers of farmers, idlers nodded again and again, they never thought that the artistic conception and connotation contained in a word is so far-reaching, and they never expected that the talent in the chest of this black-faced scholar is so extensive!

Classes started in the morning, lunch break, more than 700 children did nothing in the first class, just listened to the story of the morning, Yang Nan told the story can be described as the world's first, after school, each child received a piece of white paper written with heaven, earth, people, law, heart five big characters to go home, write before class in the afternoon and then hand it in.

"Disciple sends off sir. ”

Yang Nan left the school first, and more than 700 junior disciples bowed down in the hall according to the courtesy.

Mr. today said that there must be rules for being a man, children have children's rules, adults have adults' rules, progress is a rule, and retreat is also a rule.

People have rules, they are people, people have no rules, they are beasts, they know books and etiquette, and the rules are the foundation of being a man.

So, the seven hundred children no longer scattered with a bang as in the past, but bowed down to bid farewell to Yang Nan and left, before packing up their bookwear and returning home.

The story told in the first class spread all over this small farm in an instant, and the adults who returned home suddenly found that the children who were not familiar with the world in the past and were stubborn and abnormal seemed to have grown up a little, and they also understood some simple truths that only adults understand, and they obediently sat down and took out the pen and ink and began to practice calligraphy.
