As soon as the three-character "Three Character Classic" was spoken, Master Yu's expression suddenly changed.
He stared blankly as Yu Sanlang shook his head and recited this song, which sounded like a nursery rhyme and a children's song at the same time.
It is rich in morals and philosophy, and contains a large number of classic stories mixed with words and phrases.
In just six words, the allusion of Meng's mother's three migrations is presented to the eye, and it is simply as concise as possible.
"...it is the father's fault if he fails to teach, and it is the fault of the teacher if he is not strict in teaching..."
"Husband, what San Lang is carrying..." The wife looked at Master Yu with some uneasiness, but was stopped by Master Yu raising his hand.
After reciting about dozens of sentences, Yu Sanlang stopped. However, as he was very knowledgeable and had heard a lot of things from it, Chief Yu, who still had more to say, couldn't help but ask.
"Go on, why don't you recite it?"
Yu Sanlang shook his head in frustration.
"No, Brother Chen Wu said, there are many more to come, but the pastries the children bought can only learn so much..."
"...How could that kid do this?" Manager Yu was speechless for a long time, and finally couldn't help but mutter angrily.
The wife on the side couldn't help but murmured in a low voice.
"Husband, is this really an article? Why do I sound like a nursery rhyme?"
"Madam, this is not a nursery rhyme or a children's song. This is definitely someone who is knowledgeable, imitating the catchy style of children's songs and nursery rhymes."
"It's a big article that combines Confucian ethical concepts, many experiences and classic stories about teaching children and raising children..."
"Sanlang, come here, come here, tell me, father, do you know who Chen Wulang got this article from, and do you know the name of this article?"
I saw my father who was furious at first, but now he was talking kindly to me with a flattering smile on his face.
This made Yu Sanlang finally breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed that Brother Chen Wu had indeed not lied to him.
"Brother Chen Wu didn't say who he was talking about who got the article, but Brother Chen Wu said that the name of this article is "The Three Character Classic"."
Manager Yu gave me a big blow with his big hand, and his face showed exactly what I expected with a smile.
"The Three-Character Classic...a good name, with three characters and one sentence, like a nursery rhyme. It is popular and easy to remember. If you are not a learned scholar, who would dare to name it after a classic."
"Sanlang, you can devote yourself to studying. My father almost blamed you wrongly just now. So, just keep this piece of silver.
I will continue to study with Chen Wulang tomorrow. I will try to write down and copy this entire article."
"When the time comes, I, as a father, can use your light to appreciate the full text of the Three Character Classic."
"Yes father, the child knows."
"Well, go ahead and copy down the words you remember today. After you finish copying, come over for dinner. I and your mother will be waiting for you."
Seeing Sanlang walking away quickly, Master Yu stroked his long beard with joy, and couldn't help but be fascinated. Which great scholar's work was secretly spread...
Could it be Kong Yingda? Or Xiao Deyan?

"Fifth brother is back?" Chen Erlang raised his head with a smile, looked at Chen Wulang standing at the door, smiled and waved.
"Come here quickly, how are you? Your face is glowing today, you must have gained a lot of benefits, right?"
Chen Wulang took a nap and moved his fat figure into his second brother's house with a little embarrassment.
"Thank you, second brother. If you hadn't taught me, how could I have benefited from my talent?"
"You kid...why, you still want to learn?"
Chen Wulang said with a proud face.
"Of course, I have made an appointment with my friends. I will teach whoever benefits me tomorrow thirty more sentences."
"Okay, come on, come on, I'll read it, you can copy it yourself..." Chen Erlang shook his head in confusion and began to recite with his head bobbed.
Chen Wulang was copying it carefully.
In the Imperial College, several students also obtained similar manuscripts and proudly showed off this rare article.
"Don't underestimate the "Three Character Classic". The more Gu studied it, the more he discovered that his article, which was only a few thousand words long, had a lofty purpose and contained dozens of stories.
...Whether it's Meng's mother moving three times, Huang Xiang Wen Xi, Kong Rong letting pears, which one is not a classic story told by our teachers and elders..."
"It's amazing. Such a concise text can still explain so many great principles. It must be the work of a learned scholar."
"Yeah, anyway, I don't think our PhD students from Taixue are capable of this."
"By the way, senior, where did you copy this article from?"
"I copied it from my cousin. I asked my cousin, but he didn't know. He copied it from a friend..."

Kong Yingda stared blankly at the paper in his hand, which contained many contents of the "Three Character Classic".
This was when he overheard the "Three Character Classic" being recited and sung by little children in the streets.
He was so shocked at that time that he got out of the car and went to ask about the little baby.
Only then did I realize that this "Three Character Classic", which is similar to a nursery rhyme, has been circulating in Chang'an City for many days.
After that, people began to collect the contents of the "Three Character Classic". Until now, the full text was finally collected.
His thin face was full of jealousy and gloominess. Even he had to admit that with his talent, he wanted to create a work like "The Three Character Classic".
If he was given enough time and thought carefully, it wouldn't be impossible to figure it out. However, he, Kong, never thought of doing it like this in the past.
As a result, now, as soon as the "Three Character Classic" comes out, illiterate children on the street can play games and recite and sing it catchyly.
After repeatedly comparing the Three-Character Classic with the Thousand-Character Classic, which is specially used to enlighten schoolchildren today, Kong Yingda had to admit it.
"The Three Character Classic" is easier to understand, the words are simple and catchy, and the large number of stories in it are inspiring.
It is definitely more suitable for the enlightenment of school children than "The Thousand Character Classic". It can be said that if it is recommended by scholars all over the world, this "Three Character Classic", which has not been published for a long time, will definitely become the book of enlightenment that everyone hopes for.
Outside the study door, the steward Kong Zhishu quietly walked into the study, bowed to Kong Yingda, and stood aside.
Kong Xida raised his head and asked, "Have you found out?"
"Sir, I have made many inquiries, but I still have no clue. Many people have spread the word to each other, and they all think that it should be done by a great and learned scholar."
"However, no matter how hard I look, I can't find out the source of the "Three Character Classic" or its creator..."
