Chapter 586: Famous Teachers and High Apprentices
Chapter 586 Famous Teachers and High Apprentices
Because at the level of participating in the Jinshi exam, these candidates, aside from the factors of human feelings, the gap in talent and learning is already negligible, and whether they can stand out is purely lucky!
After Mr. He came out with Sun Simung, Sun Leqing was still standing there in a daze, Mr. He stepped forward, clasped his hands into fists, and said to him:
"Congratulations to my brother, Ling Lang has a solid academic foundation, quick thinking, and has passed the next exam, I will make the decision and include Ling Lang in the clan study!"
Hearing Mr. He's words, if you want to say that Sun Leqing is unhappy, it must be false! But he really had no way to answer, his face was flushed, and he couldn't speak for a while!
When He Tan saw this situation, he chuckled in his heart, and felt that accepting disciples this time was a bit mysterious! But after thinking about it, there should still be hope, at least Sun Leqing didn't refuse on the spot!
He Tan's heart was racing, and he felt that he should still untie Sun Leqing's heart knot, so he said tentatively: "Brother Tai seems to be reluctant to let Ling Lang worship under my door, is it because he doesn't look down on my level of knowledge or does there is something else hidden?"
After He Tan finished speaking, Sun Leqing also decided in his heart that if he couldn't offend Mr. Xia, he could only politely refuse Mr. He's kindness! So, he replied along with He Tan's words:
"Mr. He's serious, your level of knowledge is so high, the whole Sun family is recognized! Your expectations are good, I have some hidden secrets, because my family lives in Sunjia Village, dozens of miles away from here, the dog is still young, life is not yet able to take care of himself, I really don't want to be sent to such a far place to study, and the family's economy is also a little tight, there is no extra money to pay tuition. Besides, the dog has already worshiped Mr. Xia Kai as his teacher, therefore, I can't promise the dog to worship under Mr. Xia, please forgive me!"
As soon as Mr. He heard this, he felt that Sun Leqing still wanted his son to study in the clan school, so he did not categorically refuse, but found a series of excuses that were not reasonable, and there should be room for change in this matter!
He Tan carefully considered the countermeasures for a while, and felt that these problems were not difficult to solve, and the problem of tuition fees could be paid from the scholarship of ethnology!
Although the money for this scholarship is not in his own hands, it is up to him who the scholarship is given to him, and it is more than enough to solve Sun Simong's tuition and living expenses!
Sun Sixiang's life care is nothing more than eating and changing clothes, and he can let the old wife and son sent by the Sun family to serve him handle it together, and if he cares a little more, there will be no big deal!
As for the fact that Xia Kai has already been worshipped as a teacher, this is even less of a problem! Studying is not learning art, and there is no need to withdraw from the original master, as long as the original gentleman Xia Kai himself agrees to worship another master for his apprentice, he can completely worship under his own disciple!
Scholars start from Fameng, as long as they continue to study and participate in the imperial examination, there must be more than a few masters to worship, as long as it does not violate the dignity of the teacher!
He Tan thought of a solution to the problem, and said to Sun Leqing with a smile on his face:
As long as Ling Lang studies hard, you don't have to pay the tuition at all, there is a scholarship for clan studies, if you are worried about this matter, I am now in charge here, and Ling Lang's tuition and food expenses are all paid for by scholarships. As for Ling Lang's life, I will take care of it personally, so Brother Tai will still not worry about me as a gentleman, right?"
Sun Leqing has long known that there are scholarships for ethnology, and when he heard the people who won the scholarships, how difficult it was, it was a matter of double face, and now his son has not yet entered the school, he can get the scholarship, and it is false to say that he is not tempted!
This scholarship not only solves the problem of my son's tuition fees, but also is a great honor for the whole family!
Although Sun Leqing had agreed in his heart, he still strictly adhered to the bottom line of not offending Mr. Xia, so he still refused politely:
"Thank you very much Mr. He for his love for the dog, but because the dog had already worshiped Mr. Xia Kai as a teacher a year ago, without Mr. Xia's permission, the dog must not worship Mr. as a teacher, please understand!"
When He Tan heard Sun Leqing's words, he was right, because respecting teachers and respecting the Tao represents a person's moral character! Losing virtue is not as simple as having a bad reputation for a scholar, it is equivalent to losing his fame and qualification to be an official!
If Sun Leqing really did this, he He Tan really didn't dare to accept Sun Sixiang, because a student who didn't respect his teacher, even if he was the most talented, would be useless!
Once someone reports that he does not respect teachers and has low moral character, he is talented but not virtuous, and no examiner dares to admit him!
Therefore, this time, He Tan couldn't take care of it anymore, but after thinking about it, he still said: "Actually, Ling Lang worships Mr. Xia as a teacher, which can be described as a famous teacher and a high apprentice, which makes me feel ashamed! Ling Lang has laid a very solid foundation for his studies, and he is well-read! But after all, Mr. Xia still has to review and participate in the imperial examination, and he doesn't have much time to teach Ling Lang, which may also affect Mr. Xia's imperial examination results!" Moreover, Ling Lang is under Mr. Xia's disciple, and there is only one person who studies hard, and there is no kind of communication between classmates, and the learning effect will inevitably be a little worse! With Mr. Xia's love for Ling Lang, maybe he also hopes that Ling Lang can study in the clan school. You don't have to promise me now, go back and ask Mr. Xia's opinion, if Mr. Xia doesn't agree with Ling Lang to come to the clan to study, then if I haven't said these words, let Ling Lang study hard under Mr. Xia!"
Although He Tan urgently needed to find a protégé with good qualifications, so that his disciples could succeed in the imperial examination, so that he could prove his talent and let himself become a famous teacher!
Famous teachers and high apprentices do not exist in isolation, but are interdependent, famous teachers can certainly create high disciples, and high apprentices can in turn achieve famous teachers!
As soon as Sun Leqing heard that what Mr. He said was reasonable, he also said to He Tan very sincerely: "Thank you, Mr. for your guidance, although I can't agree to let the dog worship under Mr. for the time being, but once Mr. Xia agrees to the dog to enter the clan study, he will definitely entrust the dog to Mr." After speaking, Sun Leqing left with his son.
When Sun Leqing returned to Sunjia Village, it was already dark, and he took his son to eat the food left by the Jiang family and went to sleep.
In bed, he reported the situation to Jiang, and Jiang praised Sun Leqing's disposition, and agreed to let Mr. Xia decide this matter, so he slept steadily!
