Mo Ziyuan followed Li Linsong back home and looked at a room full of people sitting at the table. After walking in, she shouted one after another: "Uncle Cai, Uncle Tree, Uncle Gui..."
After Mo Ziwan finished calling the people who came to the house, Li Youcai looked at the little boy who came back with a smile and said, "Wanwan is back, we are here to disturb you."
Mo Ziyuan also had a smile on her face, "Uncles, you can come and sit at home. We haven't even had time to welcome you, so why bother? Uncles, you're welcome."
Li Youshu listened to Mo Ziwan's words and praised: "This person who has studied is different from us rough guys. He speaks better than us. Unlike us rough guys who only know how to say "Sit in the room!" "Eat. No?" Something like that. "
Li Yougui came up with a rare fart, "If you ask me, I'll just say, why are you bothering me?"
Li Yougui's words successfully made everyone in the room burst into laughter. Li Youcai laughed and said, "That's not what I usually say. Why bother!"
After several people laughed again, Li Youcai said: "Wanwan, your brother Lin Zi and the others came back and told us that they would come and read for an hour tomorrow, first and second half of the day. Wouldn't this be too much of a delay?" You?" Chinese website
Mo Ziwan originally wanted to find an opportunity to talk to them about studying. Reading is not just a matter for students. Only by co-education between home and school can we educate better children. Seeing that the fathers of all six of them were here, I just took this opportunity to talk to them about their studies.
"No delay, no delay. On the contrary, I usually delay you uncles. Please tell me that my uncles and aunts have been helping us with the work in the fields." When she said this, Mo Ziwan stood up and bowed to several people. He got down and said, "Thank you uncles."
Li Youcai sat at the edge, watching Mo Ziwan bow, and hurriedly stretched out his hands to support her, "How come you kid is so polite? We are obviously here to thank you, but now you are the one to thank us. You have to be so polite, Why did we invite you, Brother Lin Zi, and the others to study?"
After Mo Ziwan stood up straight, she said with a smile: "Come on, come on." Then she continued, "Although I have never been to a school, my godfather taught me, and I learned everything my godfather taught me. Otherwise, I would not dare to teach my brothers." Then he talked about the study situation of Li Linzi and the others, "Brother Linzi and the others are very serious in their studies now. If we continue like this, we will insist on studying seriously for two or three years, and then copy a book. It’s definitely not a problem to write a letter and be a cashier.”
Throwing out the bait after graduation can also make them have the patience to let their children continue to read. The reading model of three days of fishing and two days of casting the net, or reading for three or two months and then quitting will definitely not work. .
Li Qinghuai's father, Li Hualin, hesitated and said, "You want to study for three years?"
Mo Ziyuan turned her head and looked at Li Hualin, "Uncle Lin thinks three years is too long?"
Li Hualin said: "I know that studying is not a matter of a day or two, but we all have a lot of things to do at home." In his heart, it is not the reason for too many things, but the reason that two or three years is too long. They can't There is no extra spare money to support an idle person in studying.
Mo Ziwan said: "Uncles, do you know why the students in the academy keep studying? Some of them have turned gray at the temples, and their families are destitute and they still don't give up. Why is this?"
Not only Li Hualin looked at Mo Ziwan, but everyone in the room, even Mo Tingyu and Murong Qingyuan also looked at Mo Ziwan. How could Li Hualin know this? His family was too poor to take over the pot and he still had to read on. I'm afraid there's something wrong with my brain! Asked: "Why is this?"
Mo Ziyuan did not immediately answer Li Hualin's question "Why?" and continued to ask: "The eggs were sold for 138 renminbi and the cabbage was sold for 297 renminbi. How much did the two items cost in total?"
After Mo Ziwan asked the question, she looked at the six people, not to mention asking them to calculate it, but they had not yet written it down. When a few people were stunned, Mo Ziwan said the number in one breath, "Four hundred and thirty-five essays, My uncles can test me by just giving me a few numbers, and Brother Qingyuan can also tell me, and I promise to answer them in one breath."
Not only could Li Youcai and the others not be able to answer the question, but they could not find out even if they asked. However, Murong Qingyuan became interested and asked casually: "Two hundred and thirty-eight plus four hundred and sixty-three."
"Seven hundred and one."
"Four hundred and sixty-seven plus one hundred and nine."
"Five hundred and seventy-six."
Murong Qingyuan asked two big numbers in succession and she answered them. She became even more interested and continued to ask: "Five hundred and sixty-seven plus five hundred and sixty-seven." Just use the number just obtained as Add the questions.
Mo Ziyuan still reported the number without stopping, "One thousand one hundred and thirty-four."
After Murong Qingyuan continued to ask a few more questions, Mo Ziyuan answered without pausing. After finishing her answer, she said: "After my godfather taught me arithmetic, I started adding and subtracting by myself. But now I can only do addition and subtraction. Others don’t know it yet.”
Murong Qingyuan was shocked and said: "You are called a good person, but I think your calculations are faster and more accurate than the accountant."
Li Youcai and several other people have seen this scene before, and they have only seen the county accountant calculating the abacus, mumbling incessantly, slowly, and it took him a long time to figure it out, but Wan Wan couldn't do anything. It’s no use, even if it comes out at once, it’s not better than the accountant.
Mo Ziyuan said without humility: "My godfather also said that I can calculate faster than the accountant. I am also teaching Brother Lin Zi and the others according to what my godfather taught me. As long as they study hard, they can calculate the accounts after they have learned it." There must be no problem." After finishing speaking, he continued the topic just now, "This is the benefit of studying. Although you can do calculations without studying, you can only calculate a few pennies. If you do more calculations, I'm afraid it will be a big loss. It’s very difficult!”
Who among the people in the room could be like him? As she said, as long as he counted more, he could count everything on ten fingers without even seeing it.
He went on to say, "Being able to calculate accounts is just a little convenience brought by studying. For example, students in academies, whether their hair turns white after reading or they are in their prime, one day they will stand out once they reach high school. Not only When he became famous, even his family's chickens and dogs were sent to heaven, and from then on he became a master, with the court taking care of his food and clothing."
"Although we don't study for fame, no matter why we study, reading can increase our knowledge, enable us to see higher and farther, and go further. But reading has never been easy, It’s not just a matter of three or two days. My godfather praised me for being smart, but no matter how smart I am, it took me nearly two years of study to copy a book.”
As soon as Mo Ziwan finished speaking, Mo Tingyu took over, "Studying is not easy. Usually when we come back from working in the fields, we can take a breather and relax, but Wanwan has to read from morning till night when we go to bed. In the middle of winter, her hands were red from the cold and she couldn't even take a break. Also in the middle of summer, when her clothes were soaked with sweat, she couldn't bear to take a break. She was either writing or reading all day long."
After listening to Mo Tingyu's words, Li Youcai sighed, "Nothing is easy, it's not easy!"
Li Youshu also said: "If I sit in the room for a whole day, it will drive me crazy."
Li Hualin laughed, "Not to mention a day, I can't sit still even for half a day."
Mo Ziwan added: "If the uncles let the brothers continue to come, I will definitely teach them seriously, but in addition to my teaching, the uncles and aunts should also teach more at home."
Li Youcai: "What can we teach you?"
Mo Ziwan: "Of course there are teachers. Teach them how to behave, teach them not to be lazy, teach them to study hard and not waste their time, so that they can become useful people in the future."
Li Hualin was speechless, "Oh my god, you really need to study for this. How can you say these things without studying?"
Li Youcai slapped his leg and said, "Read, we will definitely continue reading this book, but we will have to trouble Wan Wan and Uncle Mo more in the future."
After Li Youcai finished speaking, the other five people also expressed their intention to continue reading. After the five people finished, Li Youcai continued: "It's okay if I trouble you for a day or two. From now on, I will trouble you every day, so we will discuss Please pay some tuition fees."
Mo Tingyu hurriedly waved his hands and said: "How can this happen! No, no!"
Mo Ziyuan also followed Mo Tingyu's words and said: "We accept your uncles' wishes, but don't talk about the tuition fees anymore. I'm only four years old. I just read a little bit and teach my brother. We read and read just because we want to be with him
Let's play together, uncles, don't take it seriously. "
Li Youcai said: "How do we take this seriously? It's obviously true."
Mo Ziyuan said seriously: "No matter what the uncles think, it's best not to mention the tuition fees again. I don't want to cause trouble for myself."
Li Hualin said: "It's no trouble at all. If there is another rude person who makes sarcastic remarks, I will send him to the Yamen without Mr. Han's intervention."
Li Youshu: "Yes, Wanwan, don't be afraid, we will definitely not let anyone bully you again."
Mo Ziyuan: "Thank you uncles for your kindness. Firstly, I am not a gentleman from the academy and I am still young. Secondly, I am still half-baked and have not learned anything thoroughly. Even though I have been taught a few words, I still know most of them." I don’t know why, but if people spread rumors about a four-year-old kid being able to teach, or spreading gossip about being a child prodigy, it will cause us trouble. Uncles have this If I have spare money, I might as well buy some pens and ink for my brothers and practice more calligraphy. After I practice my calligraphy, I can copy books and earn some money to support my family."
As soon as Mo Ziwan finished speaking, the room full of people looked at me and I looked at you and didn't know what to say. Li Youcai said, "Then your hard work can't be in vain, right?"
Mo Ziwan smiled and said, "The hard work is not in vain. There is a saying in the book that "reviewing the past will help you learn something new." When I teach my brothers to read, it is equivalent to reading the book again. After reading it more, I will gain new understandings. . If the uncles are really feeling sorry for themselves, just like before, they will help take care of the work in our fields when they have time. When my grandfather's legs are healed, he will help them farm the land. "
What's this! But everyone saw how determined she was and were afraid of causing trouble for them, so they had no choice but to give up. On the way back, Li Youcai said, "Uncle Mo and his friends are benevolent and don't want to take any money from us, not to mention that kid Wan Wan. He has a good heart and is also very talkative. He says one thing after another. I'm stunned." He was so stunned that we didn't know what to say. We are big bosses and won't stop doing anything, so we can only listen to Wan Wan on this matter, lest we don't know anything and cause trouble for them."
Li Youshu sighed again, "Tonight I saw how powerful this kid Wan Wan is. I really didn't read this book in vain. Wan Wan is determined to teach Qiangzi and the others. Let's go back and take more care of them. Let them Come and be obedient, so that Wan Wan, Uncle Mo, and Aunt Song won't have to worry about it." After a pause, he said, "Although I won't mention tuition fees, I think I still have to do my best in the future!"
