Chapter 9: Exclusively published by Jin-Jiang Literature City
The next day, Si Yuan specifically asked the kitchen to skewer a few more candied haws on his own.
When it came time to eat the candied haws on a stick, he deliberately ate it in front of Xiao Changqing. While eating, he did not forget to express his feelings after tasting the candied haws on a stick.
Xiao Changqing, who loves to eat candied haws, was so greedy that his mouth watered.
But after what happened yesterday, Xiao Changqing also knew that it was useless to cry. He could only endure it when he was greedy, and did not cry or yell like he asked for candied haws yesterday.
But my father is so good. He even told me not to eat candied haws in front of him, but my father even deliberately brought the candied haws in front of him to make him greedy. QAQ
Seeing little Changqing's pursed lips holding back tears, Si Yuan, who didn't want to tease the child too much, took the remaining half of the candied haws and asked, "Changqing, do you want to eat it?"
Xiao Changqing glanced at him suspiciously, but looking at the red candied haws covered with tempting sugar coating, he swallowed and nodded crazily according to his true inner thoughts: "I want to eat it!"
Si Yuan hesitated and said: "But your mother-in-law stipulates that you can only eat one candied haws a day. You gave today's candied haws to your father yesterday, so you can't eat it again today. What should I do?" "
Xiao Changqing lowered his head in despair and whispered: "Then I won't eat today."
Si Yuan suddenly handed the half of the candied haws to his mouth and said with a smile: "But my father is very happy that Chang Qing is willing to share his favorite candied haws with him, so today my father will also share his candied haws with him." I’ll share it with you. Come on, Chang Qing, take a bite.”
Xiao Changqing looked up at Si Yuan in surprise. Under Si Yuan's smiling gaze, he stretched his neck, opened his mouth, and bit into a candied haws in front of him. Then he bit the candied haws and pulled it forward. This candied haws was pulled off the bamboo stick.
A red hawthorn candied haws covered with sugar coating was a bit big for Xiao Changqing. His small mouth could not contain the candied haws, so Xiao Changqing could only raise his hands to cover his mouth and chew slowly. I was holding on, for fear that the candied haws that accidentally hit my mouth would escape.
Si Yuan watched Xiao Changqing gnawing on the candied haws like a little hamster, and the smile on his face deepened.
He glanced at the four candied haws on the bamboo stick in his hand, and quickly finished three of them without hesitation, leaving only the last one. At this time, Xiao Changqing was still chewing on himself slowly and cherishingly. I couldn’t bear to finish the candied haws on my face right away.
Si Yuan put the bamboo stick with only one candied haws left into Xiao Changqing's little hand, and said to the stunned Xiao Changqing: "I'll share this one with you, but after eating, Chang Qing wants to Come to the study and study quietly."
Xiao Changqing's little hand tightly grasped the polished handle of the bamboo stick, as seriously as if he was making a promise, and nodded: "Yeah, I will study hard, dad, don't worry."
Dad once said that he was not good at studying. He was stupid and could not study well. He could only rely on his son to study to give him a reputation.
Xiao Changqing feels like he has been given the responsibility of a man by his father, and he is very motivated in studying. After all, he is his father's pride, so of course he must give him credit!
In order not to waste time studying, Xiao Changqing finished the candied haws in his mouth, and asked the nanny who took care of him to put the remaining candied haws away for him until he finished studying.
Regarding Xiao Changqing's plan, Si Yuan just looked at it without saying anything and let him make the decision on his own.
Even when the wet nurse wanted to tell her young master that the weather was hot now and the sugar coating on the candied haws would melt if kept for a long time, Si Yuan stopped her with his eyes.
Oral teaching is not as impressive as letting children experience it in person, so Si Yuan always prefers to let children experience it in person for such small things that are not related to the child's safety.
Si Yuan took Xiao Changqing's hand and walked to the study.
Now the study room used as a decoration by the original owner has completely become Xiao Changqing's enlightenment classroom.
Except for the big bookshelf that has not changed, other places have changed a lot. Si Yuan brought a large blackboard into the study. Now there are some commonly used words written on the blackboard. This is for Xiao Changqing's literacy. The blackboard There is a small desk in front of the desk, and there are many literacy cards spread out on the desk, which are used for Xiao Changqing's class.
Si Yuan was a mess, but he was only a mess in his studies and imperial examinations. After all, everyone knew the original master's academic level. Isn't it suspicious that he suddenly transformed from a scumbag to a god of learning?
Si Yuan found a suitable excuse for his own failure. He was doing this to encourage his cheap son to work hard. After all, his son is cannon fodder. As cannon fodder, he can't compete with his father and the male protagonist and male supporting actor, so why don't he work hard to make progress on his own? Are you really going to be like him and think that a naughty wild father will fall from the sky?
Si Yuan has been daydreaming about fighting his father for so long. Not a single system has fallen from the sky, but a bully and coaxing father has fallen from the sky. Therefore, the cannon fodder son should not rely on this hope. It is better for people to be self-reliant. , The backing depends on everyone, only relying on oneself is the most real.
Xiao Changqing's current enlightenment class is taught by Si Yuan himself. Although the original owner failed to pass the exam, he has been fooling around for so many years. With the original owner's cultural level, there is no problem in teaching a young child.
When Xiao Changqing has passed the enlightenment stage and is six or seven years old, it is time to take advantage of the educational resources of Uncle Jingyuan's Mansion and let Xiao Changqing go to Jingyuan Bo's Mansion to go to school with Li Chengyuan's son.
After all, children should go to elementary school when they are six or seven years old. They go to school to make friends. They can't always receive private education at home. They don't even have good friends to play with. Then Si Yuan is really worried about raising the child. Come out of depression.
Xiao Changqing's first teacher, in addition to Si Yuan himself, was Yu Yan's mother.
Yu Yan is also the lady of the scholarly family. She used to read through the Four Books and Five Classics. Not only is she proficient in all aspects of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, she also knows a little bit about everything. Her knowledge level is more than enough to enlighten a young child.
So Si Yuan simply took Yu Yan to teach Xiao Changqing. As the saying goes, parents are their children's first teachers. Of course, no one can be absent.
Anyway, he can't do this maddening job of teaching children alone.
Xiao Changqing sat upright in front of his desk, with a very standard sitting posture, which was strictly required by Si Yuan. After all, in this era, if you are hunchbacked or short-sighted, it will be difficult to solve the problem.
Si Yuan gave Xiao Changqing an enlightenment lesson according to the rule of two quarters of an hour in class and two quarters of an hour in rest.
In the original plot, Xiao Changqing was able to pass the Jinshi examination at a young age, and he was admitted in that kind of family environment. He is really talented in reading.
During the period of enlightenment for Xiao Changqing, Si Yuan also felt that although he was far inferior to his genius level and could neither remember anything nor draw inferences from one instance, Xiao Changqing could still do a lot. You can memorize it after reading it a few times, and you won't miss the questions again.
Although Si Yuan is a genius with many talents, he is by no means the kind of genius who has no knowledge of ordinary people. He knows what the learning ability of ordinary people is, so he can also judge that Xiao Changqing's learning ability is higher than that of ordinary people. Among them, it is considered excellent.
After half an hour of class, Si Yuan asked Xiao Changqing to sit by the window and look at the green scenery outside the window to relieve eye fatigue.
Xiao Changqing obediently obeyed. He observed the trees and flowers planted outside the study. The window of the study just faced the small garden outside, and the scenery was beautiful.
But after observing for a while, Xiao Changqing suddenly pointed to a big tree outside the window in surprise and asked: "Dad, why has that tree become thinner?"
Si Yuan looked in the direction of his finger. It was a large tree with luxuriant branches and leaves, and there were some small trees around it. Compared with the big tree he saw last time, the branches and leaves of this big tree today were indeed covered with branches. A lot was cut off.
There were dedicated gardeners to prune and manage the flowers, plants and trees in the house. Si Yuan didn't worry about it, but he knew the reason without asking the gardener.
So Si Yuan replied: "Because that big tree has too many branches and leaves, and it grows too tall, blocking the sunlight of other trees around it, so that other trees cannot get sunlight and cannot grow well. So the gardener cut off some of the branches and leaves of the big tree so that other trees could get sunlight."
Xiao Changqing nodded thoughtfully: "So that's it..." After a moment, he asked again, "But if other trees don't grow taller quickly, why should we blame this big tree for growing too tall? Is it too big? The sunlight is there and other trees can’t steal it, so should we blame it for taking away the sunlight from other trees?”
Xiao Changqing felt a little sorry for this big tree: "It hurts when its branches and leaves were innocently cut off!"
Si Yuan did not expect that Xiao Changqing would think about the problem from this perspective. He stared at Xiao Changqing for a while, suddenly laughed and said: "You are right, natural selection, survival of the fittest, the surrounding small trees If you can't compete with that big tree, you really shouldn't blame the big tree for being too tall. But Changqing needs to consider the environment in which these trees grow. They grow in our houses and have specialized gardeners to manage them, so this big tree Trees cannot bully other small trees because of their own strength. There are rules in our house, and even trees must grow according to the rules. But if it is in the wild where no one is managing it, then the big tree can grow as long as it wants. You can grow as tall or big as you want..."
Xiao Changqing listened very carefully, and finally he summarized Si Yuan's words: "So if a gardener is stronger than a big tree, he can prevent taller and bigger trees from bullying the smaller trees. Then I am stronger than the gardener. If it is strong, can we also ask the gardener not to chop down the branches and leaves of the big tree?"
Si Yuan smiled and touched his little head, and then confirmed his statement: "Of course."
Xiao Changqing said seriously: "Then I will eat more, grow up quickly, and grow stronger than the gardener, and then ask him not to chop down the big tree."
Si Yuan told him: "You are my son and the young master of our house. The gardener is just a servant of our house. Even if you are younger and thinner than him, your status is higher than him. You can do it now." Tell the gardener not to cut down the big tree.”
Although Si Yuan has lived in a modern society where everyone is equal for decades, he has lived for a hundred years in the Tiancang Realm, a world of immortal cultivation where the strong are respected after time travel, so the concept of respecting the strong is even more deeply imprinted on his heart. .
What's more, even in modern society, the so-called equality of everyone is only equality in personality, not equality in status. Modern society also has classes and they are deeply rooted.
So Si Yuan began to teach Xiao Changqing how to understand this society.
