The two young ladies looked at each other and shook their heads.
Yu Wenming was even more happy. The two young ladies didn't recognize each other, so how could they know about Li Qingzhao.
Yang Derong thought for a while and asked, "Have you ever heard of the Detachment of Women?"
The two young ladies looked at each other and shook their heads.
The smile on Yu Wenming's face became thicker and thicker. This Li Xiuning was the former princess of Tang Dynasty. How could her women's army let this little lady from the mountain village know.
"Have you heard of Hua Mulan?" Yang Derong still asked in a gentle tone, looking at the two young ladies.
The young lady of the Chen family lowered her head and nodded, but did not speak.
Liu Yong also saw at this time that the young lady of the Chen family had no confidence at all. Although she knew, she just nodded and did not dare to speak.
Yang Derong's face was full of smiles at this time, and he said: "Hua Mulan was not much older than you when she joined the army."
The two young ladies had admiring looks on their faces. They didn't expect Hua Mulan to be so powerful.
"You two could have become Hua Mulan in that era." Yang Derong said in as gentle a voice as possible.
The two young ladies looked at each other, shook their heads, and lowered their heads.
"Do you think it's because you are a peasant girl?" Yang Derong asked, looking at the two of them.
The two young ladies shook their heads first, and then nodded.
It seems that the two of them feel inferior because of their status. Yang Derong continued: "No, Hua Mulan is a peasant girl just like you. Who said that peasant girls have no future?"
The young lady of the Chen family thought for a moment, then shook her head, lowered her head and whispered, "Master, Hua Mulan knows martial arts, but the slave family doesn't. Besides, this is studying literature, not martial arts."
Yu Wenming had been observing Yang Derong constantly cheering up the two young ladies, and was secretly worried. He did not expect that the two young ladies did what he expected, and he tried his best to smile on his face.
"Li Qingzhao, also known as Yi'an Jushi, not only has a unique calligraphy style, but also has a unique style of poetry. She is a representative of the graceful style of poetry and is known as the most talented woman throughout the ages." Yang Derong continued to encourage them, "Even in the entire Song Dynasty , is also a rare poet."
The two young ladies heard it and were thoughtful.
Seeing that they did not shake their heads, Yang Derong became more confident and continued: "There is Hua Mulan in the front, Niangziguan in the middle, and Li Qingzhao in the back."
Having said this, he looked at the young ladies to see their reactions.
The two young ladies looked at each other, finally raised their heads, their eyes flashed, and nodded slightly.
Yu Wenming couldn't help but feel anxious when he saw that the two young ladies were actually persuaded by Yang Derong.
He loudly said: "The Women's Army is a princess of the former Tang Dynasty, and Li Qingzhao is from a scholarly family, not a peasant girl."
After hearing Yu Wenming's words, the confidence that the two young ladies had finally built up was suppressed by Yu Wenming, and they couldn't help but lower their heads and rub the corners of their clothes again.
"Hua Mulan is also a peasant girl. She has made great achievements in the army for ten years. The emperor wants to make her a minister. Although she refused, she can do great things if she can be like a woman." Yang Derong was angry in his heart, but his demeanor remained and he said with a smile.
"I'm not asking you to be Hua Mulan, the Detachment of Women, or Li Qingzhao. I'm just asking you to do the simplest thing, to be literate." At this point, Yang Derong paused and said to the two young ladies, "There should be no problem with this."
The two young ladies looked at each other and finally nodded.
When Yang Derong saw the two young ladies finally nodding, he felt completely relieved.
Yu Wenming saw the two young ladies finally nodding in agreement. Although he was a little embarrassed, he didn't believe that Yang Derong could do it.
You know, although he is not a scholar, he can still be regarded as a scholar. After all, he has studied for ten years and is literate in five thousand words.
Yang Derong looked at him lightly and said, "Now I'm going to start teaching. Read these letters and open your mouth wide."
Is this how we know words? Since he didn't know how to read, he took out the tadpole text. Yu Wenming didn't believe that Yang Derong was teaching people how to read.
While flipping through the book, he only read the content and did not learn the alphabet with Yang Derong.
But when he looked at the contents of the book, there was an incredible look in his eyes.
Because this is not the "Thousand-Character Classic" that he studied before, but the "Three-Character Classic" that he has never seen before.
"When humans are born, their nature is good. Their natures are similar, but their habits are far apart..." He couldn't help but read it softly.
Compared with the "Thousand-Character Classic", the "Three-Character Classic" was not only catchy, but also had a completely different educational effect. He couldn't help but keep reading it.
Liu Yong and Zhang Dashan looked at each other and nodded. They didn't have Yu Wenming's capital, so they could only learn the alphabet.
Some people were also shaken when they saw that Yu Wenming, a scholar with five thousand words, did not learn Pinyin.
These two are the two classmates around Yu Wenming. They have always been on good terms with Yu Wenming, and they have always looked up to Yu Wenming.
Jin Ming put the book up and said quietly to a person named Jilin next to him, "Zisen (Jilin characters), Ziguang can read without having to learn tadpole script from me. It seems that this tadpole script is not very useful."
When Jilin saw Yu Wenming reciting words, he also opened the book and saw that the "Three Character Classic" also had tadpole writing on it.
He followed Yu Wenming and started reading. It was indeed catchy and he became addicted to it without realizing it.
The Three-Character Classic is more suitable for enlightenment than the Thousand-Character Classic. It is not only catchy, but also has simple characters.
But simplicity is also relative. The first words are simple, but the later words become more and more complex.
After all, Ji Lin had only read the book for three years. He couldn't recognize some words, so he had to guess along with the meaning and read on.
But after all, I don’t know them. Some words can be guessed, while others cannot.
Seeing this catchy "Three Character Classic", he felt as if there were thousands of ants tickling him, and he felt very uncomfortable.
While he was reading the Three Character Classic gently, he suddenly made a major discovery.
It is in these "Three Character Classic" that every word has a tadpole script.
"Ziliang (Jin Mingzi), take a look, there are tadpole texts in the Three Character Classic." Jilin put the book up and secretly discovered it on his own and told Jin Ming.
Jin Ming hummed, but did not open the book to read the Three Character Classic.
When Jilin saw that Jin Ming ignored him, he had to think for himself. The "Three Character Classic" all marked the tadpole text. Is the tadpole text really so important?
Thinking of this, he also devoted himself to learning the alphabet.
Jin Ming and Ji Lin were both subordinates of Yu Wenming's section and were roped in to study with him.
Although he is here in person, his heart is not here.
When he was recruiting Liu Yong and Chen Laoshi (Chen Laoshi) together that day, he simply looked down on Chen Xiazi.
Although all the craftsmen now know that Chen Xiazi’s real name is Chen Laoshi, they still call him Chen Xiazi.
In his opinion, people like Blind Chen should be eliminated and people with good eyesight should be given a chance.
Fortunately, he was recruited. If Zhaojiazhuang had recruited Blind Chen but not him, he would have definitely eliminated Blind Chen for the rest of his life.
But he never expected that Liu Yong, a man who was not as well educated as him, would become a foreman. How could God still have justice?
Thinking of this, he became more and more angry and had no intention of attending class at all.
Three days passed unknowingly, and what made Yu Wenming more and more troubled was that he had finished reading the "Three Character Classic", but Yang Derong had not taught them a single Chinese character yet.
On the way to school, Yu Wenming was in front, followed by Ji Lin and Jin Ming, and finally the two young ladies from the Chen family.
Ji Lin thought for a while, couldn't help but bowed his hands and asked: "Foreman Yu, have you read the "Three Character Classic"?"
"Of course I have read it, from beginning to end. It is well written, catchy and easy to read, and the teaching is in place." Although Yu Wenming was dissatisfied with Yang Derong for only teaching letters, he admired the "Three Character Classic".
"Foreman Yu is really awesome, and I can't stop admiring him. I only saw a very small part of the front part, and I feel that the effect is much better than "The Thousand-Character Essay"." Jilin nodded, his eyes full of admiration and adoration, which made Yu Civilized people are greatly satisfied in their hearts.
At this point, Jilin hesitated: "It's just...just".
After all, he is Yu Wenming's subordinate, so he is not as courageous as Yu Wenming.
"Just what?" Yu Wenming turned back and glanced at him sideways.
When Ji Lin saw Yu Wenming turned around and replied, regardless of anything else, he stepped forward and bowed again, saying, "It's just that there are some words on it that a villain can't understand."
"Do you understand the words above?" Yu Wenming looked at Jilin and asked, staring at him.
Ji Lin nodded sheepishly and bowed his hands: "The villain is just an illiterate. How dare he compare with the foreman? I hope the foreman can give me more advice."
"Do you want to be literate?" Yu Wenming was extremely happy and felt a sense of superiority.
Jilin bowed his hands again and replied to Yu Wenming with an admiring look: "I feel like I am almost illiterate and want to learn how to read as soon as possible."
"This matter will be taken care of by Yu." Seeing Jilin's admiring eyes, Yu Wenming was extremely useful.
Night school is night school, and the lights are still bright inside. Yang Derong nodded when he saw the students gathered.
This time he did not take a new lesson, but continued to teach Yu Wenming and others' tadpole essays.
Yu Wenming raised his hand, and Yang Derong nodded, indicating for him to speak.
Yu Wenming looked around and asked proudly: "Master, we have been teaching alphabet for three days. When will we teach students how to read?"
His words resonated with many students. Everyone had been studying the tadpole essay for three days, and many of their enthusiasm for studying the tadpole essay was fading away.
Some students put their books up and whispered to them quietly.
This Yu Wenming is indeed a thorn in the side, and Yang Derong is not worried.
He looked at Yu Wenming and then gradually glanced at all the students. Except for Yu Wenming, the other students did not dare to look at him.
He nodded and asked calmly: "Can you memorize these twenty-six letters?"
After speaking, he looked at the students below one by one.
Yu Wenming has hardly studied, and of course he can't memorize it.
Next to him, Jin Ming and Ji Lin, one has not yet recovered from Liu Yong's appointment as foreman, and the other, although studying hard, still cannot memorize it.
"Since you can't recite the alphabet, I will continue to teach you until you can." Yang Derong glanced at all the students and said calmly.
The young lady from the Chen family and the young lady from the Zhang family looked at each other and nodded.
At this time, the young lady of the Chen family suddenly raised her hand, and Yang Derong agreed to report: "Tell me, Master, the two of you in the slave family can already memorize these letters."
