"Don't you know this? Mr. Wu will hold a lecture every five days to explain to these children the deeds of saints and the moral principles of the sages. It's not for us." The speaker was a young scholar with an attitude that makes everyone drunk but only me sober. A sense of superiority.
He was the first to arrive at the academy and had the most say.
A bunch of country bumpkins, Bing, are you doubting Mr. Wu?
He would not admit that he was shocked by Mr. Wu's teaching method at first, but then he understood Mr. Wu's good intentions. How could a group of little kids understand Zhihu's too profound principles? How can they understand.
"Although he is just a small pear, Kong Rong was able to be humble, respect his parents and elder brothers, accumulate good deeds, and be humble and wise." Mr. Wu continued on the podium.
Don't do good deeds because they are small, and don't do evil deeds because they are small.
The class is still going on
Mr. Wu told it very carefully. Not only the children listened with gusto, but also a group of students were stunned. For the first time, they knew that there were so many philosophies of life behind a simple story.
Xiao Ming discovered such a situation when she walked into Qingshan Courtyard. Xiao Ming stopped and listened for a long time. Mr. Wu's story was very vivid and easy to understand. Xiao Ming was also very moved. Originally, she thought that Mr. Wu would be invited to do these stories. A child's explanation of morality would offend Mr. Wu and damage his reputation and integrity; but I didn't expect that not only would he not object, but he would also do such a good job.
Children who have just become enlightened are like a clean blank sheet of paper and need guidance from teachers or family members.
Those who are close to red are red, and those who are close to ink are dark. Correct guidance and help can change their lives; Mr. Wu uses passionate and vivid stories to help these children who are still in the ignorant stage understand what justice is and what it means to respect the old and love the young. , generosity and benevolence, loyalty and patriotism, cultivate their perseverance, hard-working personality and correct outlook on life and values.
The road of life is long, tortuous and uneven, with joy and sadness together. Only by perseverance, courage and fear of risks can we go the farthest and longest.
She built Qingshan Yuan, hoping that these children could learn useful knowledge and make their future life easier; she did not need the children who walked out of Qingshan Yuan to build great achievements or make great contributions, she only hoped that they would be able to do so in the future. A better life will not become a cancer in society or a disgusting person.
Mr. Wu's story continued. Xiao Ming strolled into Qingshan Courtyard. When Xiao Ming came in, Xiao Han secretly left his seat and ran all the way to Xiao Ming's side.
"sister."
"Let's go, take me to visit the academy." Xiao Ming pulled Xiao Han and said, unfortunately, it has been two months since Qingshan Academy started classes, and this is the first time that she, the boss behind the scenes, has come in.
Too irresponsible, too laid-back, right?
"Yes." Xiao Han nodded and acted as a tour guide, leading Xiao Ming to introduce all the way. He told Xiao Ming about every courtyard and built facilities in the college, as well as Mr. Wu's courtyard. They would listen here every day. After Mr. Wu's teachings, the two finally stopped in the library.
"I heard from Yifeng that I bought a lot of books." Xiao Ming said and stepped through the door.
"Well, there are quite a few. We asked people from the Four Seas Escort Company to help collect them in various cities. There are also many unique copies." Xiao Han nodded as he followed behind.
When Yi Feng showed Xiao Ming the bill from the college, Xiao Ming still didn't believe it. Other daily expenses came second, and the largest expenditure was actually the library. There were nearly a thousand books, which made Xiao Ming eat a lot. shock.
In the library of Qingshanyuan, Xiao Ming discovered that there were really many books after entering the room. It was no exaggeration to describe them as a dazzling array. The bookshelves were filled with books, and they were neatly classified, with astronomy on the top and geography on the bottom. , classic masterpieces; of course, there is no astronomy and geography, but there are some travel notes and anecdotes. Xiao Ming took a rough look and found that the most popular ones were ancient collections of poems used by scholars, such as the Spring and Autumn Period, The Analects of Confucius, and other works by saints from hundreds of schools of thought. The Book of Songs, etc., there are also the likes of Zhouyi, Sun Tzu's Art of War, agricultural books, and collections of scientific examination questions from past dynasties. It's really amazing, it's really all-encompassing. She didn't believe it when Yifeng said it yesterday, but she didn't expect it. I have collected so many books in just two months.
Before Xiao Ming went to the northwest, he asked Yi Feng to collect more books and enrich the library of Qingshan Academy, but he did not expect that the efficiency would be so high; the library's collection of books is much greater than that of any bookstore in Pingcheng. With Xiao Ming's permission, Yi Feng put away the books without any burden and spread the money in large amounts. The books in this room alone cost her 20,000 taels of silver, which was more than investing in the entire academy. Expensive.
What is Luoyang Zhigui? Looking at these books, it became clear that the price of each book ranged from a few taels of silver for an ordinary book to dozens or hundreds of taels for an orphan book. Xiao Ming's heart was bleeding, and she had a lot of money. of silver!
Why are there so few people reading books in this era? If you look at these books, you will understand that an ordinary farm family cannot afford a scholar even if they don’t listen or drink for a year. Books, paper, ink, and pen research, binding, and exam expenses are all not piled up with money. How can this be ordinary? People can afford it.
Why was Fan Jin so happy that he won the national examination? After ten years of hard work, no one knew about it, and then he became famous all over the world. Only he knew the bitterness of it.
Qingshanyuan has two attractive places, one is Mr. Wu, who is famous all over the world for being erudite and talented, and the other is the library. Just look at the few readers in the room who are concentrating on reading, and you will know how attractive these books are. From the time Xiao Ming and her brother entered the house to now, these people didn't even raise their heads, they only had their eyes on the book.
They are all students from all over the country, some from nearby villages, some from the town, and some from Pingcheng a little further away. They were attracted by Mr. Wu’s talent and name, and then they were deeply attracted by the books in the library. They are like wolves who have not eaten meat for a long time. When they see the delicious meat, their eyes turn green and their saliva flows. They are immersed in the mountain of books and the sea of knowledge and cannot extricate themselves. They perfectly explain what the bow-headed people are. Compared with them, those who bow their heads on mobile phones are simply weak, and they will be beaten in seconds.
Qingshanyuan, with Mr. Wu and a large number of books, has become well-known in Pingcheng and has become a holy place for scholars. It is often possible to see three or five students coming together; if they have questions they don’t understand, they can ask Wu. The husband asked for advice, so these people fell in love with this place completely. Many of them were not even willing to go home. They would rather pay some money for room and board and stay in the library reading at night.
Go home, stop working, and don't come back even if you beat me to death. This means good food and good accommodation. The key is that the cost is low, you have books to read, and you can admire the great Confucianism at close range.
The pile of books was as deep as the sea. The arrival of these people brought a small amount of income to Qingshan Academy, and Xiao Han also made many friends.
