Chapter 63 The Legendary Shen Clan Studies (Part 2)

I heard that everyone has a share, and the students looked sad, but none of them dared to speak out. They all lay paper and grind it in advance to write.

But he heard Chen Lian say in a deep voice: "Who didn't sit in the seat just now, now they are standing up!"

Chen Xiang and Chenzhuang stood up honestly, Chen Jing also kept silent, and the two stood up together.

"Very good, it's you guys again." Chen Lian said expressionlessly: "There is another new face... Since I don't want to sit, just stand to listen to the class today." After that, he set his eyes on the book and no longer looked at them.

Standing helplessly in the last row, looking at the students who were copying books with their heads down, a ridiculous feeling surged in the silent heart: "Grandma, I was actually punished to stand again."

If you copy eight words a hundred times, you have to be meticulous. If you miss it, you have to rewritten it. This is really a time-consuming and laborious chore. It took half an hour for a senior student to respectfully present it to the teacher. Although his arms were sore and numb, he dared not move at all.

Mr. Chen read every word, then put it aside, sat upright and said, "Let's continue to recite the book."

The student quickly responded respectfully and returned to his seat to pick up the book, but it was a book called "The Great Learning". He walked onto the stage with a nervous look on his face. He respectfully placed the book on his desk and whispered: "Sir... I just learned the chapter "State" yesterday."

"Back." Mr. Chen nodded slightly.

"The way of university is to be clear about virtue, to be close to the people, to stop at the highest good..." The student then recited loudly with his hands behind his back, shaking his head and chanting loudly. At first few sentences were memorized very fluently, but when he reached the "things are known, and then he knew the truth and then he was sincere..." he began to stumbling. After he finished memorizing the "nation rule of the country will make peace in the world." He stopped completely, like a worm eating an egg, and could not recite it.

"I have a few more words to read by myself." Mr. Chen pushed the book in front of him. The student slapped his eyes and immediately let out a 'Ouch' in recession, and then said with a bitter face: "There are still three words and eight words." As he said that, he stretched out his left hand timidly, closed his eyes and said tremblingly: "Please punish me a lot..."

Mr. Chen picked up the ruler and raised it high without hesitation, hitting the student's palm hard.

The crisp sound of the "bang" made all the students in the bookstore tremble, and even the silence felt a gust of cold wind whistling behind the back.

The student's hand was knocked down suddenly, and his facial features were squeezed together, but he did not dare to dodge or make a sound. Instead, he held his left hand with his right hand and gritted his teeth and ate the gentleman seven times. The left hand was swollen. His tears fell down, but he still gritted his teeth and didn't say a word.

‘Damn,’ he was silent and sweating, and asked in a low voice: “Have you ever been beaten?”

Chen Jing nodded and made another move to silence, telling him not to talk too much.

I had to stop and see that the student was beaten and couldn't go down. Instead, I stood by the table, wiping my tears and listening to the teacher's reading... It started with his stumbling "things can only be realized".

I heard Mr. Chen snorting and finishing this passage of "Sutra", and then talking about the first paragraph of "Biography", from "The so-called sincerity of the meaning, do not deceive yourself." It all the way to "rich and nourish the house, virtue nourish the body, broad mind and fatness, so a gentleman must be sincere in his intention."

After the lecture, the student was ordered to hold a book to repeat the remarks. After the remarks were finished, he finally put him back to his seat to read aloud and wait until tomorrow to check.

After that, another younger student in the grade presented his words. After the teacher finished checking, he asked him to recite the letter. The student also took the book and put it in front of the teacher's case. He stood with his hands behind his back and whispered: "Sir, I learned the forty sentences of 'sweeping the people and slapping the crimes' yesterday." It turned out that he was reading "Thousand Character Text".

This rhyme is easy to recite, but the student memorized it very well. He quickly memorized it, but there was only a small mistake in two words, but he was still beaten twice.

The students behind came up one by one, including children who were given the "Three Character Classic" and young people who recited the "Mencius". Although the contents are different, if they recite the wrong ones, they will be beaten to the wrong ones... Mr. Chen was very strict in his studies. He forgot the sentences and did not say the wrong sentences, but the tone was wrong, and many tones such as "hum ha" would be fine!

After watching it for a morning, Chen Si had not seen anyone who survived. He couldn't help but glance at Chen Jing, meaning: "I finally know why you don't want to go to school."

Chen Jing made an expression of "You don't know" and continued to stand with his eyes straight.

Chen Si really didn't know. His family was poor and could not afford Shu Xiu, who was in school, so he simply studied at home. Anyway, his father's knowledge was stronger than that of ordinary tutors... When he told County Magistrate Li, "How old should he go to school?", it was just a saying that he was respectful. County Magistrate Li was not interested in asking questions, otherwise Chen Si would have to say that he was "sleeping in school at home"...

Chen He was gentle and loved him very much, so he naturally couldn't bear to hit him. So in Xiao Chaosheng's memory, there was no saying that he could not recite the book to hit the board.

Seeing that it was already lunchtime, Chen Shu suddenly smelled the fragrance of food. His eyes couldn't help but float out the window, and he saw that the west wing room, which was said to be a small canteen, had food set... He felt hungry immediately, and his heart was burning to look forward to the end of school.

But there were still a few students who had not finished memorizing it, and the teacher had no intention of stopping. It was not until half an hour later that he had finished explaining to the last student, and then waved his hand and said, "Let's spread."

The students did not dare to scatter, but stood up and bowed together, "Mr. Xie, please ask first."

Mr. Chen stood up, glanced at the punishment for standing, and then walked away.

The students rushed out of the school and went to the cafeteria to have dinner.

Chen Si wanted to run out as well, but was pulled by Chen Jing and said, "Where are you going?"

"Didn't you see that they all ran away?" said silently anxiously: "If you don't go, you can't even grab the soup!"

Chen Jing said laughing and crying: "Sir, who dares to leave?"

Silently sighed, and felt his legs swelling and swelling. He wanted to sit down, but saw others standing honestly. He had to lean his back against the wall, stand next to each other, and whisper: ‘How can you bear this…’
