Chapter 47 47 added
"What? Mr. Qin is gone?"
Madang Town is such a big town, and the population in the town is not large. Everyone can see each other without looking up, so everyone knows each other.
The reason why Master Sun lost his composure was not only because of the death of an acquaintance, but also because of this incident at home. Qin Jingchuan might not be able to attend the county examinations this year and next.
Like previous dynasties, the Ming Dynasty made "ruling the world with filial piety" a national policy, and "filial piety" was also the basic moral norm in ancient my country.
"Shuowen Jiezi" compiled by Xu Shen, an economist and writer of the Eastern Han Dynasty, described it this way, "Filial piety means doing good things to one's parents. From one's parents to one's parents, from one's sons, and from one's sons to one's elders."
In layman's terms, filial piety means people who treat their parents well. Starting from the older generation and then starting from your generation, the children inherit the filial piety of the older generation and pass it on from generation to generation.
"Shuowen Jiezi" is my country's earliest and most influential dictionary. It is China's first calligraphy book that systematically analyzes the glyphs and origins of Chinese characters. It is also the most widely circulated Chinese must-read reference book, and its influence is also great.
Now this student who has signed up to take the county examination has a funeral in his family. As a direct junior, Qin Jingchuan must observe filial piety. In this case, the next two years will be delayed.
But it's not a big problem, because he is still young, only sixteen years old this year.
But now the dilemma facing Master Sun is that there are only nine students in the school this year, one less.
Because everything happens for a reason, in fact, there are only nine out of nine. It is not a big deal to take the county examination. After all, Qin Jingchuan has reported clearly and cannot refer to it for some reason. The five-life joint insurance will not be affected by this.
When Master Sun thought of this, he just sighed slightly without feeling too much. He lowered his head and saw the top one of the thirteen papers in front of him. His thoughts were clear and his writing was smooth. You could tell from the handwriting that it was written by Wei Guangde.
Wei Guangde's handwriting was only average among the thirteen students that Master Sun was optimistic about, so he could recognize it at a glance.
As for the middle and lower class, that is, Master Sun, because he has no hope of fame, he concentrates on teaching students. When he has nothing to do, he picks up a pen and practices a few calligraphy. Because his mind has nothing to do, he can calm down. In recent years, his calligraphy has improved. It has made a lot of progress, so I have such an evaluation.
According to Master Sun's level when he was young, although it is a little worse, it is not far behind. It can be considered average and he is eye-catching.
When Master Sun thought of this, he couldn't help but feel moved in his heart. He recalled the eight-legged article written by Wei Guangde a few days ago. To be honest, it was still a little immature, but it seemed that he could go to the county for a test tour.
Anyway, since you are young, you should just have some experience and be familiar with the process of taking the county examination.
"Guangde."
Thinking of this, Master Sun looked up at Wei Guangde who was studying and called out his name.
Wei Guangde was reading "Mencius" when he suddenly heard his teacher calling his name, so he immediately put down the book in his hand and stood up respectfully.
"Come here for a moment."
Master Sun looked at Wei Guangde, stroked his beard and said.
Upon hearing the master's instructions, Wei Guangde immediately turned out of his desk and walked to the front of the hall.
According to past habits, after reading the homework they handed in, Master Sun would often call them one by one to teach them, so that they would know what they did well in the article and what they did poorly. They should pay attention to the wording in the future.
In his opinion, today is no exception. It's just that he handed in his hand early today, so he was afraid that he would be the last one to show it to his husband, so he was the first one to call him up to hand over his hand.
He walked to the side of the table and stood up. His whole action was very respectful, which made Master Sun very satisfied.
"These days, because I have to take care of your classmates who are waiting for the exams, I have less exams for you. How are you memorizing those books?"
Unexpectedly, Master Sun did not directly comment on his article, but asked about the books he had arranged for Wei Guangde to read and memorize.
Because of Wei Guangde's super memory, in addition to the Four Books and Five Classics, Master Sun also asked him to read some miscellaneous books. Of course, there would be no popular novels in this miscellaneous book, but just annotations on other books compiled by sages.
Everything is actually preparation for them to take the imperial examination in the future.
"The students are paying attention and remembering it carefully. Sir, you can take the exam at will."
Wei Guangde is still confident about endorsements. Of course, he doesn't dare to memorize words fluently, which is a bit of a suicide attempt, but there is still no problem in normal school entrance exams.
Master Sun was still very satisfied with Wei Guangde's endorsement. He knew his student's memory ability.
In fact, what he said was just to remind him that he couldn't relax just because he didn't take exams in the past few days.
"You heard just now that something happened at the Jingchuan family."
Master Sun sat there and continued talking, but when he heard Wei Guangde's ears, he felt weird. "There is a funeral in Senior Qin's family. Why are you telling me this? Can you just go to the dry matter and comment on my homework? I am so groveling." The movements are still uncomfortable.
I thought so in my heart, but there was still a solemn look on my face, as if I felt sorry for such a thing happening in my classmate's home.
Of course he knew that something like this happened in Qin Jingchuan's family and that this year's county examination was in vain, but there were still several seniors ahead of him.
Just when he was thinking wildly, he suddenly heard words that made him horrified.
"I would like you to try this subject, although you are still young and your skills are not yet solid."
Wei Guangde heard all what Master Sun said. I am still young and I am not knowledgeable enough. You still want me to take the county examination?
When is it now, can I still register for the county exam?
After feeling a little annoyed in his heart, Wei Guangde immediately thought of another question: time, is it still in time to register?
"You should go home now and tell your parents about your intention to become a teacher. If they agree, you should go to the county school as soon as possible to register for the county examination. If you are even guaranteed, you will use the position of Qin Jingchuan."
Wei Guangde was a little distracted by what Master Sun said later, but he still remembered the important point. The deadline for registration is the day after tomorrow, that is, if you get to the county before the day after tomorrow, you still have a chance to sign up.
When Wei Guangde walked out of the private school, he also came to his senses. It wasn't that Master Sun was very optimistic about his writing skills. It just happened that there was a spot in the school and two teams of students were needed to take part in the county examination. It's not good to have one empty now.
Not to mention that if one person is missing, the other four students will not be able to take the exam. If Qin Jingchuan were to take the exam, those four students would be the unlucky ones. Otherwise, they would not need to continue insurance, and they would have to sign on the registration form. Coupled with the name of the guarantor.
In fact, Qin Jingchuan couldn't take the exam, but the other four students could also take the exam, but one of them was absent for some reason.
Also, what Master Sun meant was to adapt himself to the atmosphere of the county examination.
Okay, county examination, I'm here, let me feel what the first step of the ancient imperial examination was like.
Thinking of this, Wei Guangde felt an inexplicable emotion in his heart, and strode towards Bengshan Castle with his schoolbag on his back.
