My Ancient Stepson Bootcamp

Chapter 19
At dawn the next day, Uncle Wu blew his whistle and called Xu Mingchen and the others up, saying that from now on they would be under his care. Afterwards, they dressed up and left the farm, and found that Dazhu's gang of children had been waiting for him. At the foot of the mountain, Uncle Wu led the children into the mountain.

They came back in about half an hour, had breakfast, and went to school. Xu Mingchen and the others were still taught by Mr. Bai, and Dazhu and the others were still taught by Fan Xiucai.

Xu Mingye and Xu Minghao were very unaccustomed to sitting in the school to read and practice calligraphy, but since they had promised Lin Shuran "willing to be punished", they could only sit in the school and listen to the lectures.

Ever since the fire broke out in the rice field, Dazhu and his children seemed less willing to play with the young masters of the Xu family, Xu Mingchen and Xu Mingye, and they were secretly competing with each other, and one was bound to win over the other.

Healthy competition helps each other to win. Lin Shuran is still very willing to see them continue to work hard under the stimulation of each other. At least Xu Mingfan, who is a genius, and Zhang Songlin, a child prodigy, have made rapid progress.

Lin Shuran made a nine-to-nine multiplication table for the children, thinking that they would learn more about advanced science without being out of touch with this era, so she added lessons to them from time to time to learn some of them. Unseen knowledge.

For example, people in the Jin Dynasty did not pay much attention to arithmetic. They all said that it was a low-level merchant's art, and that scholars, farmers, businessmen, and merchants were the last. Therefore, even ordinary farmers did not want their children to be associated with merchants, but Lin Shuran felt that arithmetic was very important.

The ninety-nine multiplication table is the basis of arithmetic. Dazhu and the others have learned it before, but Xu Mingchen and the others are new to it, and they all find it amazing. Xu Mingfan recites it extremely fast and can quickly master it.

The teachers all know how to teach students according to their aptitude, and Lin Shuran, who has been a teacher, naturally knows this way the most. Although Xu Mingfan and Zhang Songlin are only nine years old, their intelligence and knowledge are far superior to children of the same age.

In the Jin Dynasty, the imperial examinations were used to select scholars. Those who are interested in official careers have to study poetry and articles from an early age. Qin, chess, calligraphy and painting are also subjects they have to learn. They are not as detailed as those in modern schools, and there are no physics, For chemistry, biology, etc., they only ask for well-written articles, well-written poems, good calligraphy, and good painting, which can make them famous and rise to the top.

But Lin Shuran wants to broaden the knowledge and abilities of the children, hoping to help them deal with various emergencies and difficulties in the future, so that they can be a kind person with perseverance, optimism and hard work no matter what the situation is. People don't hurt others, and they don't get hurt by others. Even if they encounter pain, they won't collapse. This is her original intention to be an educator.

Therefore, after becoming Lin Shuran three years ago, she was the first to apply her educational philosophy to children from ancient farm families like Dazhu. Now Dazhu and the others are already very responsible at a young age, whether it is physical fitness, psychological quality or knowledge. His ability has been greatly improved compared to three years ago, and he has self-confidence and an attitude of being neither humble nor overbearing in the face of superiority and inferiority.

However, because the identities, status, living environment and experiences of the Xu family brothers and Dazhu are different, the method of guiding them is different from that of Dazhu, and the method must be based on the specialties of each child. Change.

When she observed that Xu Mingfan was a child who thought highly of himself and didn't give up easily, she deliberately put him together with Zhang Songlin. Zhang Songlin was a generous and talented child, and he didn't look down on others just because he was smart. Instead, he humbly asks others to learn what he is not good at, and he is good at making friends.

Lin Shuran would assign some special "homework" to the two of them every day, such as digital Huarong Road, Nine Links, Lubansuo, interesting and difficult math problems, and even some simple physics and chemistry experiments. Yes, but later they found that when they racked their brains and couldn't come up with an answer, the information accidentally revealed by the other party made them suddenly enlightened. Lin Shuran suggested that they cooperate together.

"I can do it alone, I don't need the help of others!" Ever since Xu Mingfan lost to Zhang Songlin, he wanted to surpass him in every way.

"Fourth, do you know what a smart person is?" Lin Shuran called Xu Mingfan to him, and decided to have a good chat.

"Smart people naturally learn well!" Just like him, Xu Mingfan, who is only nine years old, thinks he is a smart person.

But Lin Shuran shook her head. Seeing Xu Mingfan's puzzled expression, she explained: "A truly smart person must not only learn well, but also conduct well. When you know your own strengths, you must also see your own shortcomings, and then change them. At the same time, you must also see the strengths and weaknesses of others. When you know how to learn his strengths from others one day, avoid and improve your own shortcomings, then you will It's the beginning of your becoming smart."

Xu Mingfan has a strong comprehension ability, he seems to have understood Lin Shuran's words, he fell silent, he wanted to become a real smart person.

After Lin Shuran's enlightenment, when he saw Zhang Songlin again, the hostility in Xu Mingfan's heart when he met his competitors dissipated a lot, and even his attitude improved a lot. Zhang Songlin naturally felt Xu Mingfan's change and took the initiative to discuss with him. question.

The two people's intelligence is on the same level, and there is no barrier or difficulty in communicating. It didn't take long to develop a rare tacit understanding. Half a month later, the two became inseparable friends.

Not only did Xu Mingfan and Zhang Songlin become friends, but Xu Mingchen, Xu Mingye and the others got along with the children of Dazhu Erzhu day and night, and gradually became acquainted.

"Miss, it's been half a month, and the young masters haven't said anything about going back to the house!" When there were only two masters and servants in private, Chunxi and Lin Shuran talked more naturally and intimately, and always felt that she was not married yet. There is still no news of the newly married uncle.

"It's no more fun here than in the mansion, and I heard from Mr. Bai that they go to school on time every day, and they have made progress in their studies!" Unreasonable.

Chunxi nodded. Since the last fire, the young masters of the Xu family have become a lot more well-behaved, and they haven't caused any troubles anymore, but they can't be seen after leaving the school, and they went to the mountains with Uncle Wu to learn hunting.

After another half month, Xu Mingchen and the others not only had no plans to go back to their residence, but also wanted to live in the farm for a long time.

And this month's getting along with Lin Shuran in the farm also changed their attitude towards her a lot. Even Xu Mingye and Xu Minghao, who had always been quite hostile to her, had a much better attitude towards her.
