Chapter 81: The Story of Yueyang Tower

 "Today we are not going to talk about what is in the textbook. I will tell you about a particularly famous article in the history of Chinese literature!"

After speaking, Teacher Niu wrote four words on the blackboard.

"The Story of Yueyang Tower!"

After writing these words, Teacher Niu narrowed his eyes and spoke a string of words that no one could understand.

"I observed the grandeur of Baling, a lake in Dongting. It carries distant mountains, swallows the Yangtze River, and is vast and boundless."

After reciting this passage, Teacher Niu seemed to be a little excited. He didn't speak for a while.

The students were confused and looked at each other. They didn’t understand this at all!

Teacher Niu seemed to have expected this result. He smiled bitterly.

"Teacher is a little moody today. Students, please forgive me. Today is the memorial day of Teacher's father, so I think of my hometown."

At this time, the students became full of admiration. It turns out that the teacher’s hometown was written about by the ancients!

There were basically no classical Chinese texts in the textbooks of that era. Even if they were, they were some poems.

But this class is only in the first grade and doesn’t know a few words. Teacher Niu has obviously lost his composure.

There was a moment of silence in the audience. The children all felt that the teacher was abnormal, and no one dared to make any noise.

дравствуй(те)! Hello! (Hello everyone!) Доброеутро! Good morning! (Good morning!)

A faint sound of reading suddenly came out.

The students all looked at the place where the sound came from.

It turned out that Ye Yuze was muttering in a language that everyone could not understand with his eyes closed.

"Ye Yuze, what are you doing?"

Teacher Niu knocked on the podium and asked Ye Yuze.

Unexpectedly, Ye Yuze turned a deaf ear. He still closed his eyes and shook his head. He didn't know what he was saying and became emotional.

Teacher Niu stepped down from the podium in two steps, took a pointer and banged on Ye Yuze's desk.

Ye Yuze finally woke up, but he still didn't understand the situation. He looked at Teacher Niu blankly, not knowing what happened.

"Ye Yuze! It's just that you don't listen in class. You can't even hear me when I call you. Are you deliberately going against the teacher?"

Ye Yuze was stunned for a moment, and then he realized what he was doing. He quickly buttoned his ears and took out two balls of cotton.

The whole class laughed. They had never seen anyone listen to the teacher with their ears blocked.

Even Liu Mang couldn't help but show admiration. This is so fierce!

Teacher Niu was also so angry that if he hadn't been bald, he would have been furious!

"Hey Ye Yuze, is it because you don't have to take the math class? Your tail is raised? Don't you want to take the Chinese class too?"

Ye Yuze's mouth moved. He was about to say yes! But when he thought about it, it was wrong. He couldn't be so obvious, he had to be subtle.

So he put on a silly look.

"Teacher, I know everything in the textbook. I just thought that instead of wasting time, I might as well learn something else."

"Buzz!" There was a noise in the classroom. The students were all talking about it.

Some said Ye Yuze was too awesome. Some said:

"Don't listen to him, he's bragging again!"

"If he was bragging, why didn't the arithmetic teacher let him in class?"

For a moment, the classroom was in chaos. The students divided into several circles and started arguing around Ye Yuze.

Although Ye Yuze's tone of voice was humble, his meaning was obviously not humble! What does it mean to know everything in the textbook? A waste of time?

Teacher Niu gritted his teeth and looked at the thin and small transfer student and pondered for a while.

Then he made up his mind and pointed at the four words just written on the blackboard.

"I'll give you this original text. If you can read it out completely, you don't have to come to my class!"

This is really a bit difficult. Not to mention first-year students, most junior high school students cannot read it completely, because some words in it are rare.

Ye Yuze pursed his lips. "Teacher, if I read it out, can you tell the music teacher and physical education teacher that I won't come to their classes?"

Teacher Niu pointed at Ye Yuze. "You, you, you..." For a long time, no words came out!

In twenty years of teaching, this is the first time he has met such a child.

If he doesn't do well in class, he will ask the teacher to help him skip class.

But thinking about Yueyang Tower, he felt a little more confident.

I don’t believe that an eight-year-old child of yours can read this text!

Then, Teacher Niu regained his composure and agreed happily.

"Okay! But if you can't read it, you have to listen carefully to every class in the future. Even those who know it have to listen. Is this okay?"

He wanted to take this opportunity to conquer Ye Yuze completely.

Otherwise, if there are several like this in a class, the teacher will no longer need to be a teacher. Once the class starts, there will be no more students.

Ye Yuze agreed without hesitation. He was deeply impressed by this article. He didn't dare to memorize it. But it would definitely be no problem if he read it according to it.

Teacher Niu handed a book to Ye Yuze with an enigmatic smile on his face.

Ye Yuze was dumbfounded when he opened it. What the hell is this?

Yellow paper, vertical characters! They are all traditional Chinese characters. Where did Mr. Niu get this antique?

In fact, most of Teacher Niu’s confidence comes from this.

This book was handed down from his ancestors, and I don’t even know which dynasty it came from.

He looked at Ye Yuze indifferently, waiting for him to admit defeat. As long as he admitted that he couldn't do it, he would have to give him a good education if he couldn't.

Ye Yuze opened the book and found Yueyang Tower and looked at it carefully. He felt happy in his heart.

The scholar read half of it. Although the traditional Chinese characters are difficult to recognize, there are always traces to follow. If you match your memory of this article, you will definitely be able to read it!

So he cleared his throat and blurted out a long string of words:

"In the spring of the fourth year of Qingli, Teng Zijing was relegated to Baling County. Over the next year, the government was harmonious and people were harmonious, and everything was restored. The Yueyang Tower was rebuilt, its old structure was added, and poems by Tang Xian and modern people were engraved on it. I wrote a composition to record it..."

Teacher Niu was stunned, and all the students felt like their mouths were stuffed with eggs. They were all dumbfounded.

At the beginning, Ye Yuze's reading was a bit awkward and his speaking speed was very slow. Later, he gradually became proficient.

"As you advance, you are also worried, and when you are retreating, you are also worried. But when will you be happy? It must be said: "Be worried about the worries of the world first, and be happy after the happiness of the world." Hey! Who am I to return to Weisi people?"

Until Ye Yuze finished reading, the students didn't react at all.

He just stared at Ye Yuze's mouth stupidly. It was as if Ye Yuze could read this because of his mouth.

Anyway, they don't understand what's right or wrong, and they can't hear it. They just think that this long string of words sounds so high-end.

Teacher Niu was really shocked. Is this a monster? Is he really only eight years old? Isn't he eighty years old?

But that little body stood in front of her in a cute manner.

He also asked, "Teacher, I have finished reading. Do you want to explain it?"
