Chapter 959--The Tragic Lu Xiucai
Finally, Mo Xiaobei was sent to Baima Academy by Tong Xiangyu to study. Baima Academy is the best academy in the country, and the gentlemen are all very talented academicians.
It was almost time for school to end, and Tong Xiangyu seemed a little impatient. She hurriedly ordered Dazui: "Fry two more dishes, and then cook my 70-year-old daughter Hong!"
Yang Hongru was confused: "What happened? Is today a special day? Is Xiaobei getting married?"
"Today..." Tong Xiangyu said deeply: "It's Xiaobei's first time after school!"
Guys:······
Yang Hongru:······
It’s hopeless! Tong Xiangyu is hopeless!
Tong Xiangyu rolled her eyes at everyone charmingly: "Do you think this meal is just for you? I've asked about it a long time ago! A husband will come to visit the student's home today! Come on, sir! Don't let him eat and drink well?"
"
Yang Hongru nodded: "If you want it, this is very important!"
As a teacher, Yang Hongru must be in favor of respecting teachers and respecting ethics. If the culture of respecting teachers and respecting ethics had been maintained until the 21st century, the social status of teachers would not be so humble.
Yang Hongru's life as a teacher was pretty good. Firstly, his work unit had a good platform and his students were excellent. Secondly, Yang Hongru had enough food in his hands to not panic. If someone really tried to play tricks on him, the legal department of the group supported by the Yang family would
Use legal weapons to tell you what the power of knowledge is.
But Yang Hongru is an atypical teacher. In fact, more than 90% of teachers in China are living in dire straits.
The content of Yang Hongru’s college classmates’ group chat is just the same – self-first aid, stress regulation, sword health, complaining about the principal, director... Anyway, most of his colleagues are living in an endless hell, what sense of happiness is there?
, any sense of accomplishment is just a cloud!
There is also a mutual aid group among the classmates - taking the civil service examination together, taking the postgraduate entrance examination together, group purchasing cooperative medical care...
This is the true form of a teacher in the world. Yang Hongru’s situation belongs to Bai Yueguang among teachers! His living situation is the dream state in the hearts of countless teachers.
Not long after, Xiaobei came back from school. She ran to the backyard without even saying hello. Her husband staggered and followed Xiaobei's footsteps into Tongfu Inn.
Seeing the gentleman from the academy, Tong Xiangyu hurriedly greeted the waiter to greet him. He served tea and poured water with such enthusiasm that the gentleman was a little confused.
"You're welcome, Shopkeeper Tong. Teaching and educating people is what I and my husband should do... It's just that Xiaobei has a naughty temperament and needs the joint efforts of the academy and parents..." Mr. Zhu said.
Tong Xiangyu glared at the backyard angrily, then put on a smile and said to Mr. Zhu: "What Mr. Zhu said is that Xiaobei must be strictly monitored."
Mr. Zhu said: "Of course, through Xiaobei, I am also thinking about a question - whether our education should be carried out to kill children's nature. Although Xiaobei is naughty, he may not have a bright and glorious future."
After speaking, Mr. Zhu took a sip of tea and said, "Have you ever heard of the former prefect Lu?"
Lu Xiucai held his head high - this is his ancestor!
"The grandson of Magistrate Lu has been called a child prodigy since he was a child~" Mr. Zhu continued.
Lu Xiucai showed off: "You can read a thousand words at the age of three, memorize Tang poetry at the age of five, and read the Four Books and Five Classics by the age of eight..."
"Do you know how he is doing now?" Mr. Zhu said disdainfully: "He is almost too hungry to eat! Even his ancestral property has been sold to others!"
Everyone looked at Lu Xiucai with a strange look - shrimp and pig heart! This is shrimp and pig heart!
Yang Hongru, who was sitting at the table to accompany him, almost burst out laughing, while Marquis Lu Qing almost exploded with anger.
Mr. Zhu looked at Lu Xiucai and asked, "Little accountant, do you know him?"
"We know each other! We are very familiar with each other!" Lu Xiucai said through gritted teeth.
Mr. Zhu said: "Then tell him for me that if he can't survive, I can help him find a job. Mr. Qiu's family still needs a handyman."
Mr. Zhu's lethality is simply huge. Every word he says is poking at the scholar's lungs!
After Mr. Zhu left, Lu Xiucai held the wine bottle and drank while crying. It was quite like raising a glass to the bright moon and making the three of them look at each other.
His cries were like a ghost, making everyone in the backyard of the inn unable to sleep. Yang Hongru was very smart, so he jumped down from the second floor to watch the excitement.
"Who is it! So unethical! Crying and howling at night?" Lao Bai opened the curtain and came to the backyard and asked.
Li Dazui also came out with a kitchen knife - what if it's a ghost? Having a weapon can also make you brave!
Xiao Guo and Xiao Bei also couldn't sleep with disheveled hair: "Hey! Stop making noise! We have to work tomorrow!"
"Let me die! What's the use of a real man if he can't get a degree? Oh~~~" the scholar cried miserably.
Yang Hongru was so frightened when he heard this. What a talent for a great man to cry like this!
"Young Master Yang... persuade him! Otherwise, no one will be able to sleep well!" Lao Bai said while looking at Yang Hongru squatting on the eaves.
Yang Hongru shrugged: "What can I do? I can't guarantee that he will win the exam next year!"
"I, Lu Qinghou, knew a thousand words at the age of three, memorized Tang poems at the age of five, and read the Four Books and Five Classics by heart at the age of eight... Why am I so trapped?" Lu Qinghou said with tears streaming down his face.
Yang Hongru said to Lao Bai: "You might as well just tap him! You can also seal the mute point!"
"It's not good..." Lao Bai is an honest person. Although the scholar's crying is annoying, it won't make him angry!
Yang Hongru jumped down from the eaves and landed lightly on the mouth of the ancient well. He squatted at the mouth of the well and looked straight at Lu Qinghou and asked: "Do you really not know why you are like this?"
Lu Qinghou looked at Yang Hongru blankly and shook his head vigorously.
"Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. You have been born and died here since you were a child. Every day, besides reading dead books, you are reading to death...Although the books have their own beauty, and the books have their own houses of gold. But after reading on paper, you will eventually feel good.
"Qian, I definitely know that this matter must be done diligently. Which of the ancient sages did not have a high body and a heavenly heart to investigate the people... Mere reading is not enough!" Yang Hongru said.
Lu Xiucai is a typical representative of corrupt Confucianism in the Ming and Qing Dynasties - the kind of scholar who is useless and is a scholar.
It's not his fault. These days, the eight-part essay scholar recruitment has determined that these scholars don't need to apply what they have learned at all. They only need to study the Four Books and Five Classics.
As long as the eight-part essay is well written, one cannot run away from being an official... Therefore, scholars in the Ming and Qing Dynasties became more and more separated from the people and became less and less down-to-earth.
Lu Xiucai has been very talented since he was a child, but his spiritual energy will eventually run out, and he will eventually become obsolete to everyone. It is a common problem for such people to have high ambitions and low abilities. As long as he is allowed to live a hard life and be grounded, the situation will improve a lot.
But having said that, concepts are not so easy to change. He didn't know how much Yang Hongru and Lu Xiucai had listened to what Yang Hongru said. Some people only need a moment to become enlightened, while some people remain obsessed with it all their lives.
Without Yang Hongru's guidance, it would have taken at least ten years for Marquis Lu Qing to understand this truth. But with Yang Hongru, Marquis Lu Qing might have changed.
But no one can say how much it will change. After all, actions come from the heart, and the human heart is the most fickle.
