I am in a predicament

Hearty laughter spread throughout Rende Academy.

A man stepped out from the academy, wearing a green shirt, holding a book in his hand, with a beard on his chin, he was a middle-aged man.

Seeing it, Yue Guanshan immediately felt good and admired him, secretly praising him as worthy of being a great Confucian, with momentum, demeanor, and knowledge.

The great Confucian Chuan waved his hand, and the letter in Yue Guanshan's hand flew into his hands. He opened it and looked, as he expected, first he complimented him, then he praised the two brothers of the Yue family, and finally he did not forget to remind people of the world.Oh, layman, layman.

"Go away and tell Qiu Baiyu that if his son wants to worship under me again, it will not be that simple."

Zhang Dashan said: "Yes, the subordinates will definitely bring what you say, sir, I wonder how the two brothers and gentlemen will arrange it?"

The great Confucian Master Chuan said: "Natural education makes a man capable, so why not go out and smash my signboard to embarrass me?"

Zhang Dashan turned and left, he was a sour scholar, really bad-tempered, no wonder the city lord didn't want to talk to him, if he couldn't beat him, he really wanted to beat him up.

Zi Chuan asked the two brothers, "Did you two ever go to elementary school and know how to read and write?"

"No, my family is in a small mountain village, the family is poor, and there is no teacher to teach."

Zi Chuan pondered for a moment, then called a person and said, "Zhou Xuehai, I will entrust these two to you. I will teach you the thirteen precepts of the academy and the thirty-two quotations of the saints. I will learn the characters first and then explain the meanings. Is there any problem in a month?"

Zhou Xuehai showed bitterness: "I will do my best."

The discipline of the academy is fine, but it's just Bailaizi, the meaning is simple and clear.The sage’s quotations are difficult. There are 32 pieces, each with hundreds of words or thousands of words. Each word has a deep meaning. It is too difficult to teach two illiterate people within a month.

Master, Master, you are trying to punish me in a different way.

"What I want to listen to is not hard work, but affirmation, otherwise you will know the consequences."

"Yes, in order to reduce the cost of the academy, I copied the sage's quotations a hundred times."

The great Confucian Chuan walked away with his hands behind his back, so unrestrained.

Zhou Xuehai is a young man, calm and steady, and he is Zichuan's No.1 disciple.Zi Chuan attaches great importance to him. A few years ago, when the sage gave a lecture, Zi Chuan took him to listen to the lecture.Zhou Xuehai has benefited a lot, and Zi Chuan praised him for his unlimited future, and his achievements are determined above him.

I only heard him say: "Two junior brothers, please follow me."

Zhou Xuehai brought brothers Yueguanshan and Yueguanxue into the academy.

The three of them passed by a classroom where a teacher was teaching.

"Threesome, there must be my teacher..."

There are many students in the hall, half a hundred.

These students are all from Shuangye City, some from poor families, some from rich families.There is no distinction between high and low, rich or poor in the academy, only the level of knowledge is asked.

The Confucian classics are spread through these people, and if they go on from generation to generation, they will surely spread their fame to the world and educate all living beings.

Zhou Xuehai led the two of them to move on, passed two lecture halls, and came to a pavilion. On the pavilion was written "Xuehai Wujie", which was the place where he usually practiced.

Zhou Xuehai asked the two to sit down, took out two volumes of books and handed each of Yueguanshan and Yueguanxue one volume, and said: "This is a thousand-character text written by other Confucian ancestors. .”

"Open the home page, the first word is one, follow me, one..."

The two brothers followed the book and read: "One..."

After teaching ten characters, Zhou Xuehai asked, "What does the fifth character read?"

Yue Guanshan replied: "Heaven."

"The sixth word?"

"land."

Zhou Xuehai continued to ask the remaining few words, and Yue Guanshan answered in an instant.Zhou Xuehai immediately looked at him differently, he was a talented and intelligent person, and then looked at Yue Guanxue and asked: "Guan Xue, how about you? How well do you know?"

Yue Guanxue thought for a moment and said: "Barely know four characters."

"The difference in progress between you is too big, it seems that it is not suitable to study together, how about Guan Xue, I will let another junior teach you, you follow me."

Zhou Xuehai brought Yue Guanxue to another junior brother and explained to him why he came, this junior brother readily accepted.

"Guan Xue, this is Lin Xiangzhi. You call him Senior Brother Lin, Junior Brother Xiangzhi. This is a new disciple accepted by Master. It is still in the probationary period. Whether it can pass the test depends on you."

Lin Xiangzhi smiled and said: "Don't worry, senior brother, it's okay to leave it to me, let's go, Junior Brother Guanxue, let's start now, don't fall too far behind your brother."

Yue Guanxue nodded: "Well, thank you Senior Brother Lin, I will work hard."

Zhou Xuehai returned to Xuehai Wuya Pavilion and continued to teach Yueguanshan Thousand Character Essay.

In less than half an hour, Yueguanshan had learned everything, and even understood the meaning of the words thoroughly.

Zhou Xuehai was dumb like a puppet, motionless, this is not talent and intelligence, this is evil talent.

Yue Guanshan scratched his head and patted it again. When did this head become so easy to use? The thousand-character prose had been printed into his mind, and he could memorize it fluently, absorbing and digesting it all.

Dazed for a moment, Zhou Xuehai continued to teach, thinking that his master would be shocked in a few days.

But in just three days, Yue Guanshan has learned a lot of words, the thirteen precepts of the academy, and the 32 quotations of the sages, and he has already grasped it by heart.

Zhou Xuehai couldn't help admonishing him: "Junior Brother Guan Shan, your talent is against the sky, you must not be complacent and arrogant, and I hope that you will read the quotations of the sages every day. The book has a noble spirit, and you can cultivate your spirit in meditation, so that you can live up to the Confucianism. Scripture."

Yue Guanshan worshiped: "Thank you, brother, I will never forget the teaching today. After reading the sage's quotations, my heart suddenly became full, and I understood many truths in life, and I am no longer confused."

Zhou Xuehai: "Let's stop here today, go back early. I will introduce you to Master tomorrow and let him teach you personally. Brother, I dare not teach you anymore. In a few days, my head will be empty. It is too shocking." Let's go, let's go."

Yue Guanshan bid farewell to Zhou Xuehai, came to Lin Xiangzhi's place, and secretly looked in from outside his door.

Lin Xiangzhi closed the book, turned his eyes to the door, and couldn't help sighing, the gap between the two brothers is too big, I heard from Senior Brother Zhou that Yue Guanshan has already learned 32 quotations from the sages, and Yue Guanxue is still a little bit behind. After finishing the thousand-character text, there is no comparison and no harm.

Yue Guanxue is not bad anymore, I can only blame Yueguan Mountain for being too monstrous.

"Guan Xue, let's stop here today, go back and let your brother teach you the remaining few characters, and I will check the full text of the Thousand Characters tomorrow."

"Yes, thank you, brother."

Yue Guanxue resigned from Lin Xiangzhi, packed up and left the door, saw her brother waiting there, and the two brothers went home.

In the past few days, their father, Yuehan, was busy walking around without touching the ground.He used 30 taels of gold to set up a slightly larger restaurant and started a business.The business of the restaurant was already very good, and with the promotional support of the City Lord's Mansion, it has improved to a higher level.

In the evening, Yuehan brought back some fish from the restaurant. The brothers did not eat well in the past and were skinny, so he gave them supplements.

The family of three happily sat together for dinner, watching the two brothers gobble up, Yue Han felt warm in his heart, Xiao Er's illness is getting better soon, and his legs are also slowly recovering, the two brothers are studying with the Great Confucianism, and there will be a good one in the future future.

Tonight Yuehan sleeps very peacefully.

In the pavilion in the big courtyard, with a lamp in hand, Yue Guanshan taught his younger brother the remaining characters of the Thousand-Character Essay, and took him through the entire text again.

Yue Guanxue basically knew everything, from zero to some, and a thousand words in three days, his talent is also extraordinary.

Yue Guanxue saw that her eldest brother was looking up at the starry sky, which was full of bright stars. Seeing him staring at it for a long time, she was fascinated, and asked, "Brother, what is there to see in the starry sky?"

"I don't know, I just like to watch it, it's beautiful and beautiful."
