Chapter 22 Ethnology
Although Jia Xu saw Chu Jiang's paddling behavior, he didn't say anything.
After all, in Jia Xu's eyes, although Chu Jiang is only nine years old, he really has nothing to teach Chu Jiang. Chu Jiang has mastered all the theoretical things that he should master, and only practice is missing. And this kind of thing cannot be rushed.
However, although Jia Xu ignored Chu Jiang's life in salted fish, Li thought that Chu Jiang was so idle was not a problem, so he asked Chu Jiang and Jia Mu to study together.
The master's wife is destined, and although Chu Jiang is a little reluctant, he can only follow him.
Furthermore, after all, people are short-speakable (this is the key).
As Jia Xu was in the Jia family, although Jia Xu was not interested in family affairs, it was very easy for Chu Jiang to study at the Jia family’s school at the request of Li. Therefore, after Jia Xu and Jia Cai said hello, the next day, Chu Jiang could go to the Jia family’s school with Jia Mu to go to the Jia family’s school with Jia Mu.
For things like clan studies, basically every aristocratic family will be established, which is only for the children of the family and some affiliated children in the family to go to school.
Although Confucius has advocated private learning since the Spring and Autumn Period and emphasizes the lack of distinction between teaching, in fact, over the years, knowledge has been still in the hands of aristocratic families. Children of aristocratic families can go to the clan to study when they are a little older, and what they can learn, even what they don’t want to learn and hate, is something that many children from poor families will never be exposed to in their lifetime.
This is reality.
In this era, if you want to get in touch with this knowledge, either you are born in aristocratic families, or your family is an affiliated family of these aristocratic families. This will have a little chance of getting in touch with this knowledge. In addition, there is almost no other way to get in touch with this era.
Maybe some people will refute, how do those poor children become talents?
The sect is also the aristocratic family.
The so-called poor family does not essentially refer to real ordinary people, but to a down-and-out family.
As the saying goes, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Even if it is down and out, these poor families are far from comparable to ordinary people.
In this era, there are no poor people who can afford to read books.
Because books are the most valuable things in this era.
In this era, measuring the strength and heritage of a family is never about money or land, but about collecting books.
It is no exaggeration to say that the value of a random book is enough to make an ordinary household have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives.
Of course, if you are talented and are attracted by some old Taoists, mysterious old men, etc., you will carefully teach and train them since childhood and think that I have not said anything.
After all, grandpa and other things have never been something common sense can explain.
Having said that.
Although the Jia family is not a famous family in the world, it is also a large clan in Xiliang, so naturally a clan was established in the clan.
During Jia Xu's stay away, Jia Mu kept studying in the clan.
After Jia Xu came back, although Jia Xu would occasionally teach Jia Mu, most of the time, Jia Mu still studied in clan studies. According to Jia Xu, it was his whole body that he learned, and there was not much suitable for Jia Mu.
Chu Jiang naturally understood what Jia Xu meant.
Although I haven't been in contact for a long time, I have a preliminary understanding of Jia Muchujiang. If I have to use four words to evaluate it, it is the best place for middle-aged people.
Simply put, it is incomparable to comparison with Mr. Jia. It may not be as high as Mr. Jia in his entire life, and it is unlikely to inherit what Mr. Jia has learned. However, the success lies in diligence and talent. It is no problem to be a civil servant who governs one side and maintain safety. Such people are undoubtedly far from being a top strategist in any force, but as a cornerstone, it is enough.
Jia Mu was very happy about Chu Jiang going to study with him. After all, he had always been studying alone in his clan. Now he has someone of the same age to accompany him, which is still a very happy thing for people of this age.
Therefore, the next morning, after eating the breakfast prepared by Li, Jia Mu excitedly took Chu Jiang out.
Of course, this unlucky child still doesn’t know what kind of trouble he will be taking to the clan to learn now.
"Ajiang, let me tell you, among the few gentlemen in the clan school, Mr. Qin is the most fierce. When you arrive at the clan school, you must be careful."
"Ajiang, I have a few friends in the school of tribes. I will introduce them to you later."
"Ajiang, I tell you, when you arrive at the clan school, there are a few people who must not be messed with."
"Ajiang..."
On the way to the clan school, Chu Jiang couldn't help but feel a headache when he saw that the rigorous boy who was usually very strict as if he had turned on some switch and turned into a chatterbox.
Why do you feel that Jia Mu really regards himself as a younger brother?
Although I am a younger brother by age, but......
He shook his head helplessly. Chu Jiang wanted to say something. What Jia Mu said was for his own good. If he didn't say it, he could only listen to Jia Mu continue to talk.
Thinking of this, Chu Jiang couldn't help but gritted his teeth, not targeting Jia Mu, but the old fox Jia Xu.
When Li asked him to study in the clan with Jia Mu, Chu Jiang originally wanted Jia Xu to help him get rid of it, but Jia Xu gloated and added fuel to the fire: "What the wife said is that Xu also thinks that Jiang'er should go to clan with the foundation."
Then, this matter was decided.
The question is laying the foundation?
Chu Jiang felt a little depressed when he thought of Jia Xu's gloating expression at that time.
Li didn't understand him anymore. The problem was his background. Can the old fox Jia Xu still not know? What lays the foundation? It was clearly because the old fox Jia Xu saw that he was so leisurely all day long and deliberately caused him trouble.
The problem is that he can't say anything yet.
Could it be that he and Li said directly that the things that the clan taught were too simple, I had learned it long ago?
If you, a nine-year-old child, dare to say this to your teacher’s wife, no matter whether you are saying it is true or not, in this era, you will be labeled as being arrogant and disrespectful to your teacher.
So, what's wrong with young age? If you have young age, you have no human rights?
However, if you don’t mention Chu Jiang’s crazy complaints about Jia Xu’s old fox in his heart, you can’t say that when he was thinking about Jia Xu in his heart, Jia Mu’s nagging in his ears seemed not as noisy as at the beginning.
Fortunately, although Chu Jiang did not respond, Jia Mu said that these things were not intended to let Chu Jiang give any answers. It was just the first time someone went to school with him and couldn't help but want to say something. This is the nature of a child.
In this way, Jia Mu said while Chu Jiang listened absent-mindedly, and the two of them walked towards the Jia family's clan.
