Be a master through ancient times

After Chu Ci presented a piece of good ink to her husband, she sat in the hall and was scolded obediently.

"A Ci, you are too impulsive. How can you fight Zhu Jie in public? This will not be true, and it will hinder your reputation. However, you can think of the word library tower, which is considered a little clever."

The teacher who studied Chuci in the county was Master Qin who dug him up from Qishan Academy.He is more than 40 years old this year, and his figure is slightly thin. Wearing a Confucian shirt on his body, he looks a bit fairy-like.

"Mr. Praise, the student actually didn't think of it for a while, but thanks to that Brother Kou's secret guidance, he just got out of trouble." Chu Ci looked ashamed.

"It's not surprising that it's him, but it's a pity..." Master Qin sighed, somewhat embarrassed.

Thinking of the scar on his face, Chu Ci understood what Master Qin was lamenting.Since ancient times, if a literati wants to be an official, he must be a person with a good appearance and no defects.The scar on Kou Jing's face is naturally not a big deal in Chu Ci's view, but it is a great disaster in terms of his official career.

"You didn't come here today just to see me, did you?" Mr. Qin changed the subject, not wanting to tell people's right and wrong behind his back.

"Hey, sir, you are really a god. The student has something unclear recently, and I hope you can enlighten me." Chu Ci smiled flatteringly. This Master Qin has a kind attitude, which always reminds Chu Ci of the old professor who taught him, so There is a faint sense of intimacy towards him, and a bit of intimacy can't help but be revealed in his speech.

Master Qin looked at Chu Ci with a playful smile on his face, and suddenly said: "I originally thought that after what happened before, you would be devastated and give up on yourself. As a teacher, I often feel that you think too much. Maybe it's because you became famous at a young age that doubled your pressure. It's rare. I can see you smiling. Now that you can let go of your heart, I am very pleased to be a teacher."

The corners of Chu Ci's eyes were sore. Didn't the original owner just collapse after being hit by that incident?He was so overwhelmed by the pressure of his family background and school work that he could only give up his life in order to escape.

This master knows the original owner better than he imagined.It's strange that the ancients put respecting relatives and teachers in the world first. The ancient gentlemen really existed like masters and fathers!

"Thank you sir for your love. I am so grateful that I can't express it in words." Chu Ci bowed deeply, for Chu Ci in the past, and for himself now. "If the teacher hadn't been running around to rescue the students, the students might have been sent into exile, and there would be no future for them. The students are cared for by their mothers, brothers and sisters at home, and taken care of by their mentors outside. How can they not be open-minded?"

"It's great that you can think like this. Let's put the fame and other things aside for the time being. Before you went to the examination room, I said that you were ready, but in fact it was just to let you not underestimate yourself. Even if you won the exam Yes, the ranking should be at the bottom. But as long as you study hard for the past three years, even the third grade is just around the corner." Master Qin laughed loudly.

"Students keep in mind the teacher's teachings, and must devote themselves to learning at home and dare not relax. The purpose of the students coming here today is to learn."

Chu Ci submitted the pages of the book and told Master Qin about his idea of ​​publishing a collection of questions, but Master Qin somewhat disagreed.

"You put your mind on this, how can you still have the mind to study?" Master Qin felt that Chu Ci's concentrating on this matter would hinder his studies, and he was afraid that his favorite students would also become those businessmen who were busy with money, and fell into the eyes of money. I can't extricate myself.

"Sir, the sages say that you can be a teacher by reviewing the past and learning the new. In the process of writing the questions, I can review all the things I have learned in the past to make the memory more profound. Isn't this a double-winner?"

Chu Ci went on to say: "Besides, sir, you also know that the student was born in a poor family. In order to let me go to school, the family gave everything. This time I was in trouble, and the family's fields were sold out. The student really couldn't bear it. Seeing that the relatives at home are suffering from hunger and hunger, I want to use my knowledge to give back to my family. But please rest assured, sir, once the family is fed and clothed and out of predicament, the students will devote themselves to their studies and dare not have other distractions.”

"The heart of a child is commendable." After listening to Master Qin, he nodded.Before he became famous, his family was also in a very difficult situation, so he could understand Chu Ci's thoughts. "Forget it, I will help you today as a teacher. Just remember in the future, you must not indulge in this way."

"Students take note."

After Chu Ci showed Master Qin his questions about Mo Yi and Nine Chapters of the Sutra, Master Qin was a bit surprised, although he didn't show it on the face.

These questions are all good, especially the nine chapter questions.The types of questions are varied, but there are example questions above, even if they change, they remain the same. The solutions to many questions are much simpler and clearer than what they used to use.

When turning to the topic of poems and prose, Master Qin couldn't help laughing.The rhyme is firmly grasped, but the whole poem reads flat and tasteless, and the reasoning is also far-fetched. Compared with the previous title, it makes people distinguish pearls from fish eyes at a glance.

Chu Ci was a little embarrassed, but it was really Mr., and he could see his shortcomings at a glance.

Then it was time for Mr. Qin to make up lessons for Chu Ci alone.From Er Xiao Yun, 13 Yuan Rhyme, Yi Xian Rhyme and other rhymes to the rules of metrical poetry, and then to the use of flat tones, Chuci basically didn’t dare to look away halfway, he was afraid that he would lose his mind , What important part was missed.

Master Qin didn’t use rote when explaining, he would inscribe a poem on the spot every time he explained, so that Chu Ci could be better integrated.

"...Okay, I've already said what should be said, as long as you keep in mind what I said today and what you have learned before, then there should be no problem with this question for the county exam. "Of course, the students' own efforts are also very important. It doesn't mean that anyone can pass the county test after doing this set of questions, but for those students who are only close to the door, it is like adding wings to a tiger.

"Yes, thank you sir for teaching me!" Chu Ci was very happy. He himself had learned it before, but he was not proficient. Master Qin's words today opened up all those joints. He found that when he faced those poems again, he could not Will be in a state of ignorance as in the past.

"Looking at your appearance, you should have earned something. Then, you can—" Master Qin looked around, and then said, "Let's write a seven-character poem with plum as the topic, limited to 13 yuan rhymes."

Chu Ci looked around, and there was a plum tree in Master Qin's yard. The branches of this plum tree were winding and winding, and it was dotted with blossoming white plums. It looked quite interesting.There are a few petals scattered under the tree, and it seems that the north wind blows them off the branches overnight.

After thinking hard for a long time, he chanted: "The cold wind has not changed the traces of the old times, and the fallen flowers linger to hide the fragrance. One night, there is no trace, and the remaining flowers are lost to the dream dusk."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Master Qin expectantly, wanting him to comment.

The 13 Yuan rhyme contains the rhymes of "en" and "wen". It took a long time for Chuci to come up with the words "hen", "soul" and "faint".

"...The artistic conception is a bit sad after all, and it seems to be 'emphasizing sorrow for writing new words'." Master Qin looked at Chu Ci helplessly, obviously he didn't like rote poems that didn't describe his state of mind very much.

The ancients often used poems to show their aspirations, and there is no one like Chu Ci who is opportunistic for rhymes.

Chu Ci smiled awkwardly, there is no way, he is really not good at this.

"Forget it, writing poetry still depends more on your usual perception. The teacher will give you a homework. After you go home, you must compose a poem every day. The rhyme and rhythm are not limited, but you must have true feelings, and you are not allowed to be perfunctory. thing. Next time you come back, you need to bring all these poems, understand?"

"Students understand." Chu Ci had a bitter face, the feeling of being assigned homework after being used to being a teacher is really indescribable, he somewhat understood the feeling of those brats being assigned to write diaries.

"It seems that you are a bit reluctant, probably because you think you don't have enough homework. How about it, let's add one more—" Master Qin's eyes flashed a smile.

"Master, Ah Ci, it's time to eat." Mrs. Qin came out of the kitchen with a plate of dishes.

"Master, we are here!" Chu Ci responded loudly, and got a sharp look from Master Qin. He smiled flatteringly at Master Qin, and hurried over to help arrange the dishes, thanking the master for interrupting him to assign homework again if.

There were four dishes and one soup on the table, ordinary dishes, but two dishes were added because of the guests.Otherwise, the two of them usually eat two dishes and one soup.From this point, it can be seen that Master Qin's life is very simple and he does not like luxury.

Mrs. Qin and his teacher had two children, the daughter is married, and the son is studying at his grandfather's house in Ganzhou Prefecture.

The two of them are usually quite lonely, but today there was an extra gag on the table, which coaxed the husband and wife to eat an extra bowl of rice.After the meal, Master Qin gave Chu Ci an essay question, saying that he should go back and do it.

After Chu Ci came out from Mr. Qin, there were not many people in the county school. Presumably, they all went to the cafeteria to eat.

When a few students saw Chu Ci, they waved their hands and greeted from a distance, and Chu Ci returned their salutes one by one.

When he reached the gate of the county school, Chu Ci saw Kou Jing again.He walked ahead alone with big strides, a kind of decisiveness was revealed in his aura.Chu Ci took a few steps and called out, "Brother Kou, wait."

Kou Jing turned her head, and a smiling face came into view, a very bright smile, even better than the scorching sun in summer.

"Are you going back now? I just had dinner at Mr.'s house. Have you eaten?" Chu Ci thought, if he hadn't eaten yet, he should treat him to a meal to repay the favor.

Kou Jing nodded, if it wasn't for Shan Chang Liufan who couldn't refuse, he wouldn't be here so late.

"I also said that if you haven't eaten, let's go to a restaurant outside to eat something. Thank you brother Kou for today's matter. You helped me twice in a row. I don't know how to thank you."

"No, it's just a little effort." Kou Jing still said the same thing.

But Chu Ci said: "As the saying goes, the kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring. I can't be that ungrateful person. When will Kou brother be free, I will treat you to a light meal?"

"I'm going back to the camp tomorrow. I'm afraid I won't have a chance." Kou Jing was a little helpless. Seeing Chu Ci's expression of regret, he said, "I have a close relative who will be going to school next year. If it's convenient for you, Brother Chu, please take care of me." Two will do."

Chu Ci nodded, wondering if it was his younger brother?

Kou Jing seemed to see his doubts, and added: "He is my nephew, named Zhong Liyu."

"So it's Brother Zhongli." Chu Ci suddenly realized and nodded.

Kou Jing laughed and wanted to explain that his nephew was only seven years old, but was interrupted by a voice.

"Mr. Chu, here, my young master asked me to pick you up." Outside Qingshi Lane, Xiao Chengzi seemed to have been waiting for a long time, and when he saw Chu Ci, he immediately became excited.

Chu Ci smiled embarrassedly at Kou Jing, said "Farewell", and then walked quickly towards Xiao Chengzi.

Kou Jing watched his back and thought: Forget it, you will know when you see someone.
