The lunch meal included some wild vegetables and a few pieces of eel and tofu.
You have to go to Licun School to buy this tofu in the village, and the scholar Hun's family is good at cooking, and some red rice lees is added to the eel meat.
This mountain picnic meal once again improved the poor mountain life a lot, and gave me a full sense of happiness.
After lunch, Guo Xuexiu personally came out and recited the Filial Piety Sutra to Zhang Yue.
Zhang Yue remembered two sentences in the "Three Character Classic" he wrote for Zhang Qiu.
‘Being a scholar, you must have a beginning. Elementary school will end with the Four Books’.
‘The Classic of Filial Piety is well understood, and the four books can only be read if you are familiar with the Six Classics’.
This was the order of study for people in the Song Dynasty. However, the concept of the Four Books did not yet exist in the Northern Song Dynasty.
Confucians all believe that the older the book, the better, and the older the book, the better. The Analects of Confucius written by Confucius and the Classic of Filial Piety, which is said to be written by Confucius, are not classics at this time, but they are not like Mencius.
The status of Zishu has been compared with the classics.
Just like the ancients, the difference between elementary school and college lies in reading the Classics. Only after you have thoroughly read the Classic of Xiao can you study the Six Classics.
If Zhang Yue himself didn't know how to read the Classic of Xiao, but wrote, "The Classic of Xiao can only be read if you are familiar with the Four Classics. If you are familiar with the Six Classics, you can read it." Wouldn't he be slapping himself in the face?
When Guo Xuetu taught Zhang Yue's "The Classic of Filial Piety", Guo Lin sat aside. In Guo Lin's words, he could keep track of the teaching progress at any time.
"Sir, I heard Guo Lin recite the Filial Piety Sutra yesterday. Today I want to learn Shu Yi first!"
Zhang Yue saw Guo Xuejun's lips trembling.
Guo Xuexiu said gently and authentically: "There is no rush to explain the meaning. Today I will split up the Filial Piety Sutra and memorize it. You will recite it chapter by chapter. In a total of six days, you will be able to memorize the Filial Piety Sutra by heart, and then I will explain the Filial Piety Sutra."
Memorize it in six days, and you can read more than 300 words in one day. Guo Xuexue teaches himself according to what Ouyang Xiu calls the "middle talent" progress.
Generally speaking, whenever a teacher talks about these things to his students, he is not allowed to say anything about what he is teaching the students to learn. Don't say anything against it. If you ask any more, you will be kicked out of the school.
But Zhang Yue still said resolutely: "Sir, if you don't understand the meaning, I really can't memorize it."
Guo Lin on the side winked frequently.
Guo Xuexiu said patiently: "Read it a hundred times and the meaning will become apparent to you. Don't be in a hurry to clarify the meaning."
Zhang Yue said: "Sir, after Guo Lin taught me yesterday, I have read it a hundred times in my dream!"
Guo Xuexiu laughed dryly and said: "Very good, then I will teach you the principles of the Classic of Filial Piety."
Speaking of this, Guo Xuexiu said seriously: "The saint kings of all dynasties have governed the world with filial piety, just to set the way for the future. Why do students who are new to the study of Confucian classics start from the Classic of Filial Piety, first the Classic of Filial Piety and then the Analects of Confucius. Just like the upper beam of this house
Generally, if the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked, so filial piety is the foundation."
But Zhang Yue said: "The students think this is debatable."
Guo Xuexiu was stunned when he heard that Zhang Yue actually opposed filial piety as the foundation.
But Zhang Yue said: "Confucianism is based on cultivating one's moral character, regulating one's family, governing the country, and bringing peace to the world. Filial piety lies in regulating one's family, but not in cultivating one's moral character. How can it be called fundamental?"
"Then what is the foundation of self-cultivation? Should we go to Buddhism, Lao Lao, and metaphysics to find it?" Guo Xuequ asked rhetorically.
Zhang Yue said: "As the teacher said, self-cultivation is the study of life and life. Sages never talk about the study of life and life, but Buddhas, elders and metaphysics all talk about the study of life and life."
In the study of life and life, in ancient Chinese literature, the word "xing" is not related to the heart but to the word "生". It is also the nature that humans are born with.
"What is the study of Xing and Ming? It is called Xing when we are born, and it is called Ming after exhausting all its principles. "In the beginning, human nature is inherently good," which is called Xing. It is called 'fate' after exhausting its principles throughout one's life."
"Book of Rites University Chapter: If you want to regulate your family, you must first cultivate your body. If you want to regulate your family, you must first cultivate your body. If you want to cultivate your body, you must first rectify your mind. If you want to rectify your heart, you must first be sincere in your intention. So.
Scholars should regard the investigation of things with sincerity and knowledge as the foundation of their lives."
Guo Xuexue and Guo Lin were dumbfounded.
Although their level of Confucianism is a hundred times that of Zhang Yue, when it comes to moral debates, they are no match for Zhang Yue's keyboard warrior, so they have no way to refute.
Zhang Yue added: "For example, today's scholarly custom is to cut one's legs to serve one's relatives. It has become popular for a while. If a scholar does not cut one's legs, it is regarded as unfilial. How can it be a sincere way to do it reluctantly?"
"In addition, the manager of filial piety has a saying, 'The body, hair and skin are received by the parents and dare not be damaged, which is the beginning of filial piety.' It means that if the body, hair and skin are damaged, not only will you suffer, but your parents will also be sad. It is used to understand the hard work of the parents in raising them.
It means not not cutting your hair or shaving, which is an act of filial piety but not filial piety, and loses the foundation of sincerity."
Zhang Yue also understood that if ordinary academics heard what Zhang Yue said, they would be scolded and kicked out of the school.
But Guo Xuexiu hesitated for a moment and said: "If you answer the test like this, the examiner will not take it from you. You should just follow the book."
This time, it was Zhang Yue's turn to be surprised. He was willing to die to test the bottom line? Still, the scholar didn't change his face.
Zhang Yue had no choice but to say: "Sir, what you said is exactly right. Please explain it slowly and clearly, so that students can understand the way of the previous kings."
Guo Xuexue originally taught Zhang Yue to memorize Zhang Yue first and then explain the meaning of Shu. However, after hearing what Zhang Yue said that shocked the world, he changed his mind. He first subtly taught him the principles of life and corrected it, and then silently studied the Confucian classics.
.In Guo Xuexue’s eyes, students’ conduct is far more important than academic performance.
The brief meaning of the Xiao Jing was annotated by Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty himself, and all scholars read this edition.
Guo Xuexu went to great lengths to explain the Filial Piety Classic from beginning to end, hoping that with the help of sages' words and simpler explanations, he could subtly correct Zhang Yue's wandering mind.
But seeing that Zhang Yue listened without saying a word, he turned to Guo Xuexue and said, "Thank you sir for your explanation. I will ask you to give me a book and practice calligraphy while reading."
Guo Xuexiu saw that Zhang Yue had once again violated his intention, so he read the book before he finished reciting the Filial Piety Classic. He still said gently and authentically: "The power of learning lies in accumulating silk into inches, and accumulating inches into feet. The size is endless, and it becomes a horse. Don't be lazy.
, and don’t bite off more than you can chew.”
Guo Lin on the side couldn't stand it anymore and said: "Junior Brother Zhang, you are not allowed to borrow books to read before you have recited the "Book of Filial Piety"."
Zhang Yue smiled slightly and said, "Sir, after listening to your explanation just now, the student has memorized the meaning of the scripture."
"What?" Guo Xuexue and Guo Lin were both surprised.
It took Zhongcai six days to memorize the more than 2,000-word Xiao Jing. Xiacai took 12 days. Even a "shangcai" like Guo Lin took three days.
Zhang Yue memorized it in one day and one night?
"As a scholar, you must not lie!" Guo Xuexuan's face has darkened. "Whether you can memorize or not is a matter of personal talent and understanding, and you cannot force it at all, but sincerity and dishonesty are the foundation of a person!"
Zhang Yue smiled and said: "Sir, I heard that when you first taught Senior Brother Guo, if you made a mistake in one word, you would not be allowed to eat for one meal. If you made a mistake in two words, you would not be allowed to eat for a day. If the students memorize it in class, it is normal if they make a mistake in memorizing one word."
"This is what you said...start from the first chapter, "Zhongni lives in Zengzishi"!" No matter how good-tempered Guo Xuejun was, he was still a little angry.
Zhang Yue nodded confidently: "Zhongni lived in Zengzi's residence. Zizi said: "The former king had the most virtuous and important way to obey the world..."
In a short time, Zhang Yue had recited the entire text of the Filial Piety Classic, more than 2,000 words long... The only drawback was that he had memorized three wrong words.
At this moment, Zhang Yue looked at his left hand, then his right hand, and suddenly gave himself two words... It's okay for you to show off!
When Guo Xuexiu returned to his house, he lent the Book of Filial Piety to Zhang Yue.
Zhang Yue saw that the book was wrapped in silk cloth with great care, and the edges of the pages were not even folded. Before leaving, Guo Xuexuan repeatedly warned: "Treasure books with pen, ink, paper, and paper."
"Yes, sir." Zhang Yue replied seriously.
Zhang Yue placed the book on the fir table and suddenly remembered something.
He asked Guo Lin on the side: "This room has two beds and two tables. Did your husband teach a student before me?"
Guo Lin nodded and said, "There was a person who left two years ago."
"Why did you leave?"
Guo Lindao: "He used to be a talented person and very diligent, but after he failed the county school examination a few years ago, he refused to study hard and refused to work hard. One day, my father couldn't stand it anymore and said
He said a few words. He was so angry that he never came again. Before leaving, he said many unpleasant things to Dad."
"My father also regretted that he had spoken too harshly. With his qualifications, if he studied hard for two more years, he would be able to master Confucian classics and literature. At that time, he would be able to take the county school exam and even become a township official.
His talent."
"I see." Zhang Yue seemed to understand something. Is it because Guo Xuexiu was unwilling to speak harshly to his students?
"Junior Brother Zhang, there is something I don't know whether to say or not?"
"As long as it's not MMP, you can talk about it."
"Junior Brother Zhang, what did you say?"
"I mean, Senior Brother Guo, just say it."
Guo Lin weighed his tone and said: "Can you stop taking a nap? Daddy is always unhappy every time he sees me..."
Guo Lin was afraid that Zhang Yue would be angry, so he quickly said: "Brother Zhang, I memorized the Filial Piety Sutra for three full days, but you only memorized it for one day. You are really powerful. You are ten times stronger than me. Today I see that you
When I recited the Filial Piety Sutra, my father didn’t say anything, but he was very happy in his heart.”
"With your talent and talents, it may be difficult to get into the imperial examinations, but you will definitely get on the list if you take all the subjects. Of course, you have to work hard, and you must not fish for three days and cast the net for two days. Without a word of diligence, you will be successful.
Good talents and talents will also be buried, just like my senior brother was lost to the public."
Zhang Yue looked at Guo Lin with mixed feelings in his heart. He changed his position in Guo Lin's position, and when he saw such a person among his classmates, his first reaction was jealousy rather than happiness.
"Thank you for your kindness, senior brother," Zhang Yue thought for a moment, "but I really can't change my sleep habits."
"Just pretend I didn't say it," Guo Lin lowered his head, "Junior brother Zhang, don't be smart. Although I'm not as talented as you, as long as I work hard, three days can be as good as one day for you, so in the future you will be
It’s not as good as mine, do you believe it?”
Facing the serious-looking Guo Lin, Zhang Yue nodded and said, "I believe it."
Guo Lin seemed to punch the air, but it didn't excite Zhang Yue at all, so he lowered his head and copied the book in a depressed manner.
"Senior brother?"
"Senior Brother Guo?"
Zhang Yue asked a few tentative questions, but Guo Lin ignored them completely.
This made him angry. Zhang Yue shook his head.
Zhang Yue stopped talking and started copying the Filial Piety Sutra. Copying the Sutra requires concentration. If you copy a wrong word, it will be bad if you pass the exam in the future.
The next day Zhang Yue was woken up again by the noise of children.
Zhang Yue walked to the window and looked out, only to see a strong boy running into the morning breeze with a noodle, while another boy behind him was crying and chasing him with his bare buttocks, and a small noodle was floating in the air.
Throwing it around.
Just as he had nowhere to vent his anger, Zhang Yue walked out and said loudly to the naughty boy who was taking off his pants and running wildly: "Quick, quick, give me your pants! Otherwise, he will chase me."
The naughty boy ran up to Zhang Yue with a smile and was about to hand his pants to Zhang Yue. However, Zhang Yue twisted his backhand, lifted him up and cursed: "You are still fooling around so early in the morning! You are not letting anyone sleep."
Got it!"
"How dare your mother lie to me." The naughty boy was about to yell, but Zhang Yue twisted and said, "Scold me for taking off your pants again."
"How dare you... When I grow up, I will insert my fingers into my nostrils."
"It seems that you don't do this on weekdays, so why should I wait? Let's play with your fingers first."
The naughty boy hurriedly covered his face and said with a smile: "Brother, I'm making trouble with you... don't, I know I was wrong."
"You know you're wrong?"
"wrong."
"louder."
"I was wrong."
Zhang Yue said with a stern face: "Hmph, next time you dare to disturb my sleep, play fifty times on each side!"
The naughty boy couldn't help but shrink down: "Brother, I won't dare to do it next time."
After the naughty boy begged for mercy, Zhang Yue returned the pants to the other boy.
"Thank you, big brother." The boy said gratefully with a runny nose.
Zhang Yue nodded and said, "Wait."
After saying this, Zhang Yue walked back to the hut, took out a few red dates he bought in the village yesterday and gave them to the boy, saying, "Eat it, don't cry."
"Thank you, big brother."
Zhang Yue looked at the naughty boy who was looking at the red dates eagerly, took out some red dates from his pocket and said, "Come and get it."
"Okay!" The naughty boy held it up with both hands. Zhang Yue took it back and said, "You must first promise me not to bully others in the future."
"good!"
"How good!" Zhang Yue smiled and gave the remaining red dates to the two boys.
Guo Lin, who was standing aside, looked at Guo Lin and laughed. Guo Lin said: "These boys in the village school are all cunning and misbehaving. I didn't expect Junior Brother Zhang to be able to control them."
Guo Xuexiu nodded happily and said, "It would be great if I study more diligently."
"He will understand, dad." Guo Linyan said.
Zhang Yue clapped his hands, but saw the fence gate open.
A young man of nearly twenty years old walked in. The two boys looked at each other and ran away in a hurry towards the hut.
