Each class in Jiujiang Academy has its own supervisor, who is responsible for managing the discipline and performance of the students. In terms of teaching scope, he is equivalent to the class teacher in Shengyuan's previous life.
The superintendent of Class 1 of Shengyuan's elementary school was named Wenzheng, and the students all called him Mr. He.
As soon as Mr. He entered the room, the originally noisy school suddenly became quiet.
This Mr. He Wenzhenghe has a scholarly appearance, a pure look, a gentle temperament, and a clear voice. He does not appear to be a harsh person.
"Everyone is well, classmates."
"Well sir!"
Sheng Yuan stood up obediently and said hello along with her classmates.
Mr. He nodded with a smile, asked everyone to sit down, and then said: "We at Jiujiang Academy have an old habit of having a good talk with everyone before the formal teaching. Of course, you don't need to be nervous, it only takes half an hour."
At this point, with a bit of seriousness in his eyes, he asked everyone: "Among my classmates, there are husbands and young girls. Reading and literacy are the basics for everyone here. As long as there are some knowledgeable people, they will not let their children have grandchildren." Illiterate.
However, after Class D, if you want to go up further, the gap will appear. After all, not all students want to take the scientific examination. "
He said this euphemistically, and in fact most schoolchildren could understand it. This meant that not everyone was qualified to take the scientific examination.
Seeing the rich expressions on the students' faces, Mr. He smiled: "Studying requires qualifications, but qualified students may not have a bright future;
I have taught many students, and I have seen many students who work hard to make up for their lack of qualifications. Among these many people, there are many who have reached the imperial hall. Therefore, we can know how important the word "diligence" is in the road to learning, that is, climbing The bamboo crutches and vines in the mountains, the sculls of the boat on the sea. "
When he said this, wherever he looked, some of the students thought carefully, some were convinced after hearing it, and some were naughty and had no idea what they were thinking.
As an educator, Mr. He has long been accustomed to such scenes.
"...Before the class starts, I want to ask you a question. I hope you will think about it seriously and answer it solemnly. Don't just make up the numbers just for fun."
After Mr. He reminded him, it became clear that just two sentences could not stop the children from causing trouble, so he added: "You should think carefully before making a decision. I would like to remind you that your answers will affect the amount of homework in the future."
Sure enough, as soon as he said these words, the schoolboy who was still ready to make a move immediately became honest.
It has the meaning of "Let your words be vivid, but I will remain unmoved".
The well-informed Mr. He saw all this clearly and shook his head slightly in his heart.
Sure enough, every student reacts like this!
Feeling that there was nothing new, Mr. He sighed and prepared to continue the previously arranged procedures.
At this moment, his eyes passed over the first row in the middle, and he was surprised to find that the three chubby children on the table looked at him intently with the same expression.
Their eyes are innocent and clear, which makes people feel happy just looking at them.
Mr. He, who was feeling a little more relaxed, couldn't help but smile and nodded at them.
"Okay, having said that, here comes my question." Mr. He's eyes roamed over the faces of the children in the school. It was only after he had inspected the faces that he continued to speak, "Young gentlemen and young ladies, please take good care of yourself." Think about it, if you intend to take the imperial examination route in the future and study hard for further study, please raise your hand."
"Wow!" As soon as he finished speaking, the three children who had just looked at him were the first to raise their hands.
The movements were neat, as if they had been practiced for a long time.
"Oh?" Mr. He just thought it was funny at first, but after looking around, he suddenly discovered that the little girls accounted for half of the class, but the only ones who really raised their hands were the happy little girl in front of him and her in the back seat. That little girl who looked so dashing.
Immediately, the expression on his face became much lighter, and he gently pressed his hand down: "Everyone can put down your hands."
He looked at the thirty students in the school again, and then matched the names of the students from the appearance introduction on the roster.
"Classmate Shengyuan, classmate Xia Shuangjun?"
Sheng Yuan had been twisting her little head to look back and forth, but when she heard Mr. He calling them, she was immediately excited and looked over hurriedly.
But Mr. He nodded approvingly at her: "I know how you feel... Next, I want to ask others what they think. You must not help me."
Sheng Yuan and Xia Shuangjun nodded in agreement, and the amplitude of their nods was very similar.
Such standard and uniform movements are a bit too eye-catching when viewed from the stage.
It would be great if this consistency could be maintained both in and out of school classes.
Mr. He was thinking about it in his mind, but he did not delay his arrangement.
"Little girls who didn't raise their hands, please listen. Can you tell me why you don't plan to study?"
"Let me tell you!" A girl in the back row stood up. When Mr. He nodded, she said conveniently, "My family has always been known for being pragmatic, and they have always studied hard to keep their minds pure. For my family, studying is something they were born with. Will do."
"You really know how to brag!" Sheng Yuan heard Ouyang Ling mutter in the back row.
But Xia Shuangjun next to him didn't stop him.
Sheng Yuan was secretly surprised, but still turned his head to look at the other party curiously, wanting to hear what he had to say.
"Both husband and wife of my family are required to take the scientific examination, which is not only an answer sheet but also an answer to their hearts."
The little girl had been talking like this for a long time, but she hadn't gotten to the point yet. Many students were heard curling their lips, but Mr. He smiled as usual, without any sign of impatience or urging.
Like him, the already confident little girl spoke more and more fluently:
"We girls also have tutors at home, but what we learn is very different from that of my husband. Why?
The younger daughter also felt a little sad because of this. She also asked her elders and relatives, and they all said: Why study hard when there is no use for it? "
She was answering Mr. He's question using other people's words.
Mr. He looked at the little girl and thought that she was also a smart child. He couldn't help but nodded to indicate that she could sit down.
"My words were inappropriate before, so let me ask again: If the women's scientific examination is held in the future, which of the young girls here would be willing to take the examination?"
After Mr. He said this, he looked around curiously, wanting to see what the young ladies wanted to choose.
Unfortunately, only Sheng Yuan and Xia Shuangjun raised their hands this time.
Mr. He was puzzled and looked at the girl who had spoken before: "Classmate Tu Huirong, why don't you raise your hand?"
Tu Huirong stood up and said calmly: "Sir, my little girl's family taught me not to have too many expectations for things that are impossible. If you think too much, you will easily have delusions.
If a woman obeys the rules and scores at any time, she can be admitted to the Jinshi, so what? To serve as an official among sons and fathers is to lose a woman's dignity.
What's more, it's rare for a woman to be an official in the world. Even if she has a past, it's just a fleeting moment. It's not worth the gain to hurt the family's face for such short-lived benefits. "
