The rise of the poor

Chapter 43
In our country, whether in ancient or modern times, respecting teachers and valuing Tao is the primary basic moral tradition. In my country, there was an official apprenticeship system in the Zhou Dynasty, and in the Ming Dynasty, the apprenticeship system was even more perfect.

Zhu Ping'an's apprenticeship ceremony was held in a private school. Father Zhu, Mrs. Chen, and the aunt who sent Brother Jun to school watched the whole process, watching Zhu Ping'an kneel, worship, serve tea, and answer under the guidance of Master Sun.

"Reading requires diligence. Don't forget to be diligent when you enter the door. It is the time when a man is studying. If you dare to slack off, the master will not spare you lightly."

After the apprenticeship ceremony, Sun Lao Xiu Cai admonished.

"Follow the teacher's orders." Zhu Ping'an bowed and said respectfully.

Old Xiucai Sun nodded in satisfaction, then took a set of half-new four treasures of the study from the desk and presented it to Zhu Ping'an, "This set of four treasures of the study was used by me in my early years, and I gave it to you today, so don't let me down."

Zhu Ping'an was a little embarrassed to accept the gift of the Four Treasures of the Study Room.

"Given by the elders." Sun Laoxiu elongated his face.

Gifted by the elders, dare not to give up.

Zhu Ping'an had to accept it, and once again bent down to thank Sun Laoxiu.Sun Laoxiu waved his hand indifferently, and persuaded Zhu Pingan to make good use of this set of four treasures of the study, to be diligent and eager to learn, and not to let himself down.

After the apprenticeship ceremony was over, Father Zhu and Mrs. Chen came over to express their thanks to Master Sun. Mrs. Chen's eyes were red with gratitude. After Mr. Zhu was not good at expressing his thanks, he pushed forward the basket of things he had brought.

After Sun Laoxiu saw what Zhu's father brought, he asked Zhu Ping'an, "I asked you to tell your family yesterday that you don't want to sew, but did you forget to tell me?"

Zhu Pingan shook his head again and again.

Chen continued, "The Master kindly accepts Sheer Mengxue for free. Our family is very grateful. This is a little thought from us. It's not worth a lot of money. It's all picked by his father on the mountain."

Sun Laoxiucai refused, but Chen Shi and Zhu's father insisted, Sun Laoxiucai had no choice but to accept it.Of course, Father Zhu and Mrs. Chen will send it to Lao Xiucai Sun's house, otherwise, Lao Xiucai Sun may not be able to take it home. This basket is quite heavy, and it is estimated that the old master Sun can't handle it at his age.

The eldest aunt has not confirmed until now that it was really Zhu Ping'an that Master Sun received for free, and she couldn't be jealous in her heart.Of course, after returning home, the aunt also shared the bad news with the little aunt. The little aunt of Crowmouth also stayed for a while before saying something like Shi'er's bad luck, which gave the aunt some ideas. Mental balance.

After the apprenticeship ceremony, Father Zhu, Mrs. Chen, and the eldest aunt all went down the mountain, so they couldn't prevent Lao Xiucai from teaching.

After successfully joining the private school, Zhu Ping'an really took his first step in this era. Although it was only a small step, it was a crucial one.If you don't go to school, how can you make a fuss in this dynasty when the imperial examinations are in power? With the teachings of your master, even if you are smarter and different from ordinary people, no one will say anything, because you are a scholar.The book has its own Yan Ruyu, and the book has its own golden house.Scholars know the world without going out. Everything is unusual, and people will attribute it to reading.

"My name is Li Xiaobao, what's your name?"

Zhu Ping'an's deskmate is a very cute little fat paper, much fatter than himself. This little fat paper is very kind and takes the initiative to greet him. Maybe he is also a little fat paper, and he is very affectionate to himself.

"My name is Zhu Ping'an." Zhu Ping'an answered while placing his things on the table.

The little fat man took the initiative to help with the ink research, and the little fat claws made a creaking sound.

"Brother, you've come to accompany me too, and tell you, the master is fierce." Zhu Pingjun was right in front of Zhu Ping'an, turned his head to complain to Zhu Ping'an, turned his head and two snots came out of his nostrils, and then It was sucked in again by the master.

In the classroom, the Master taught the Three-Character Classic, followed by the Thousand-Character Text.Most of the children in the classroom are basically confused, saying that they have learned too much and cannot remember.But this problem, for Zhu Ping'an, is not a problem at all.He knows most of the traditional Chinese characters, but it's just a matter of writing habits and brush calligraphy practice.

After the master finished the class, he led the children to recite shaking their heads and followed the local customs. Zhu Ping'an also followed the children to shake their heads and recite. The only feeling was that they were dizzy.

Master Sun still cared more about Zhu Ping'an, a young scholar. After reading for a while, he named Zhu Ping'an to read.Although it is reading, not reciting, but because Zhu Ping'an has no textbooks, and the Master's classroom is strictly controlled, Zhu Pingjun and little fat Li Xiaobao dare not give Zhu Ping'an their textbooks, so most children think that Zhu Ping'an will be beaten.

But to their disappointment, after Zhu Ping'an got up, he spoke clearly and fluently recited the Three Character Classic and the Thousand Character Classic from scratch to the place covered in this class.

Sun Laoxiu just thought of the problem that Zhu Ping'an had no textbooks after he named him. When Zhu Ping'an's deskmate was about to borrow the textbooks from Zhu Ping'an, Zhu Ping'an got up and recited it.This greatly surprised Sun Lao Xiucai. He vaguely felt that this son would be extraordinary in the future, and he paid more attention to Zhu Ping's education.

The private school is a small society. After class, the master went to the thatched cottage behind the private school to rest. The school immediately turned into a pot of porridge.

People have three worries. Zhu Ping'an felt a little pain in his lower abdomen after class, so he went to the toilet of the private school. He said that the toilet was actually a small place surrounded by a fence in a remote corner, with only one pit.Resources are tight, and if there are more people, you have to queue up. When Zhu Ping'an passed by, there was already a person in line.

When it was Zhu Ping's turn, Zhu Ping'an was just about to go in, when a well-dressed eight-year-old boy walked over, looking like he was rich.

"You let me go first, I'm in a hurry."

The little boy was very arrogant and defiant, and directly stretched out Zhu Ping's clothes.

Zhu Ping'an turned his head and replied calmly, "You're not my shit, how do you know it's not in a hurry?"

"You, you wait!" The little boy who dragged didn't seem to have encountered a similar situation before, his face flushed, he left a sentence, and walked away angrily.

Zhu Ping'an didn't take the tugging kid's words seriously at all, opened the wooden door of the toilet, walked in, and settled the next major life event comfortably.

Well, go to the river to wash your hands, and by the way, see if that black-bellied little loli Li Shu is here. Yesterday, I promised her to tell her a story.The time between classes is a bit long, almost an hour, because there are only two classes from about [-]:[-] am to about [-]:[-] pm, so the time between classes is longer, students can have something to eat or play and rest. .In this way, the second class will not be without spirit.
