In Xie Zongjia's room, the father and daughter sat there all dejected.

An old mother had just entered the house with tea. Xie Zongjia glanced at her and said, "Get out!" ”

The old mother knew that Xie Laohu's temper didn't dare to say anything, so she took the tea and retreated.

The third elder of the Xie family hung his head and said: "Dad, right now, the gang of people in Hongshan Village are facing Lin Gao, raising the bar with our village all day long. ”

Xie Zongjia scolded: "Nonsense, doesn't my father know? ”

After Xie Zongjia scolded his son, the eldest mother cried: "Dad, you have to make the decision for me!" Are you just watching them bully your daughter like this? ”

Xie Zongjia was also irritated by his daughter's quarrel.

Mr. Xie said half-loudly: "Don't I know? If I hadn't pressed Lin Gaozhu down this time, the mud legs in Hongshan Village would have rebelled, and in the future, don't want them to be as obedient as before. ”

"Dad, if you come up with an idea, all the young and old in our village will listen to you." The third child of the Xie family said.

Xie Zongjia snorted and said: "I have the idea, the crooked one doesn't work, we come to the right, the yin one can't be successful, I will come to the yang, let's get on the bar with the Lin family, hand over the paper, and go to the yamen to complain!" ”

"Lawsuits? Dad, this isn't fun, in what name? ”

"Of course, it's for my daughter, Lin Gao asked his son to divorce his wife for no reason, there are seven out of his wife, and I still have three more to go, and his Lin family also swallowed our family's five acres of land, which will be spit out for me."

On the side, the third child of the Xie family thought for a while and asked: "Dad, there is a notice in the Shenming Pavilion in the township, after the woman gets married, the makeup will be disposed of by her husband's family." The five acres of Xitian are now surnamed Lin, how can I get them back. Although my son doesn't read much, don't lie to me! ”

"Lie to you! Idiot! Xie Zongjia slapped the third child of the Xie family and scolded, "You know a little about what you know, your sister is not remarried, as long as we find the fault of the husband's family, the Lin family has no reason to divorce your sister in the name of Qichu, as long as the yamen judges it, it will be sentenced to righteousness." At that time, not only could the makeup be returned to our family, but Lin Gaozhu also had to eat the board. Tomorrow, I will go to the county government to discuss with the Yellow Book Office, and invite the most powerful lawyer in the provincial capital to let him know what the official word two mouths are! ”

In the past two days, Lin Yanchao has been reading at home and practicing posts.

Although the third child of the Xie family came to the door proudly to ask the Lin family to serve that day, he was scolded back directly by the uncle and the third uncle who took out the paperwork. But Lin Yanchao guessed that with Xie Laohu's temperament, he would definitely not just forget it, and he would definitely retaliate afterwards.

Lin Yanchao simply sat at home, ready to take the call. At home, he was not idle, and he couldn't let go of reading for a moment, and he had already studied the university chapters and sentences given by Lin Chengyi.

In the Han Dynasty, Tang and Song dynasties, university chapters and verses were not considered one of the classics, whether it was the Five Classics of the Han Dynasty, the Nine Classics of the Tang Dynasty, the Twelve Classics, or the Song Dynasty, there was no university in the thirteen classics of Confucianism officially set by the university.

Later, Zhu Xi took the "Book of Rites", Zhongyong and the University into two books, combined with the "Analects" in the Thirteen Classics of Confucianism, and "Mencius" into four books. "University" was written by Zeng Zi, the chapters and sentences are dissected and analyzed, and Zhu Xi annotated "University", and the two together are "University Chapters and Sentences".

The university chapters and verses are the first scriptures that Lin Yanchao reads, and he talks about the order of reading.

Lin Yanchao remembered that the ancients read the scriptures, generally starting from the first of the Five Classics, the Book of Changes, and the ancients believed that the Book of Changes was passed down from the ancient Fuxi, and the book was the earliest, and it was the first to be read. It is also said that among the Five Classics, the I Ching is the most difficult and needs to be understood first.

After Zhu Xi commented on the four books, he believed that reading was a gradual process, and the order of reading the scriptures was to first read the four books and then the five classics. Because the four books are easy, but the five classics are difficult. And the four books were written after Confucius, and the five classics were written before Confucius.

In the four books, "University Chapters and Sentences" is Zhu Xi's most diligent work, in order to fear that others will not be able to understand his good intentions, Zhu Xi also wrote that he should read the university first to determine its scale; Read the Analects for the second time to establish its foundation; Read Mencius for the second time to observe its development; The second reading of the mean, in order to seek the subtleties of the ancients.

Therefore, following Zhu Xi's teachings, the teaching of scriptures in social studies is generally to let the children read the "University" first, and set the scale, but there are a few exceptions, starting with the most difficult Mencius.

In some social studies, after completing the Mongolian education, the Analects are taught first. This is for fear that schoolchildren will not have the patience to teach the most important book first, and if they can experience the classics of Sage Confucius, they will be used endlessly for a lifetime, and as long as they do not go to the imperial examination, it is not a pity that they do not read other scriptures.

Lin Chengyi gave the university chapter to himself, of course, it also meant that Lin Yanchao wanted to read "University" first to determine its scale.

Lin Yanchao read the book again, thinking that he heard that it takes ten years of hard work for ordinary readers to think of articles, which is also often said to be a ten-year cold window.

Thinking about his unreliable cousin Lin Yanshou said that he had finished reading the Four Sons Book, this is already very awesome, after all, his cousin is only thirteen years old. No wonder he said that if he is qualified, he will go to next year's county examination, and he will brag about his uncle.

Thinking that I have just started college, this gap is not ordinary.

Lin Yanchao hated to immediately prick his head with a cone on the beam, but the entire university chapter, with his amazing memory, took less than two days to memorize it over and over again, but he didn't understand the meaning of the scriptures very well.

On this day, my cousin came home from social school.

"Daddy, Daddy, I'm hungry! I am hungry! "Lin Yanshou is going to eat it as soon as he comes back.

"Uncle has gone to the market town."

Lin Yanchao responded, thinking that this was just an opportunity to ask for advice, so he stepped forward with the book and said, "Cousin, I don't understand something about the university chapters, and I want to ask you for advice." ”

"Brother Chao, I don't have time, I haven't finished reading today's schoolwork, when I finish reading, you can come again." Lin Yanshou rejected Lin Yanchao with a cold face.

"Stingy!"

Lin Yanchao reluctantly stepped aside, picked up water to drink, and thought about how to change the way and let this cousin teach him some.

Lin Yanshou didn't mean to refuse Lin Yanchao, but he was really hungry. Lin Yanshou first went to the cupboard and took out a piece of light cake, gnawed it, and after padding his stomach, he spread out the book and began to read, and when he opened his mouth, it happened to be a university chapter.

"The university is the ancient book, the university teaches people, and the law is also covered by the people's ...... from heaven."

Burst!

Lin Yanchao couldn't help but squirt out the water.

"Yanchao, how did you do it, I'm studying hard, you are doing these famous halls, how can I work hard?"

Lin Yanchao touched the water stains on the side of his mouth, took the book and said to his cousin: "Brother, you read the sentence wrong, it should be the book of the university, the ancient university teaches people, and the people are born from the sky......"

Lin Yanshou heard Lin Yanchao say about himself, and he was unhappy at the moment and said: "What's the matter with you, that's how my husband taught me to read, is you smart, or my husband is smart, he is a gift." ”

"That's how your husband taught you?"

"That's right, as Sir said, where there's 'zhi', you can pause."

Where there is, you can eat!

Will Wang Xizhi be angry with you, Lin Yanchao hid his face and retreated: "Brother, I was wrong. ”

After this incident, Lin Yanchao felt that Lin Yanshou was a little unreliable, and it was better to study by himself.

At this time, there was a voice outside.

"Extend the tide, extend life!"

Lin Yanshou threw away the book when he heard this, and rushed out of the door and said, "Dad, what good things did you bring me in the market town?" ”

"Huh, Piggy?"

"Well, that's right, it's a little pig now, and it will become a big pig in the future, and the big pig will raise another litter of piglets in the future, and the little pig will become a big pig again. After that, our family had meat to eat. ”

Lin Yanchao walked outside the door after hearing this, saw the uncle holding a piglet, and immediately asked, "Uncle, why did you buy a pig?" Where do you get the money? ”

Uncle smiled and said, "I borrowed this money from an acquaintance, don't worry." Is our family exempt from forced labor for exactly two years? Life is also better, I want to go on like this all day, it's not a way, it's better to raise a pig, there is a good saying, people raise people will be tired, pigs don't get tired of pigs! ”

Lin Yanchao is still very pleased, after this incident, the uncle seems to be much more reliable, and he is finally willing to do some serious business. However, the uncle was too optimistic, thinking that Xie Laohu would forget about it.

At this time, Lin Yanshou said coldly: "Dad, is your pig a pig from the south, or a pig from the north?" ”

Uncle asked confusedly, "Shouyi, what's the difference?" ”

Lin Yanshou coughed and said: "The sage has a saying, the southern pig is stronger than the northern pig!" ”

His father asked, "Strange, how could a saint teach this?" ”

Lin Yanshou said: "How could my father lie to you, there is this sentence in the mean, Zilu asked Qiang, and Zi said: "Southern pigs are strong?" Northern pigs are strong with? Or is it stronger? Be gentle and teachable, do not report nothing, and the southern pig is strong. ”

Got that? Lin Yanchao pondered for a while, thinking that Lin Yanshou had just broken the sentence, and said in his heart: "Yes, it's not a pig, in the Min dialect, it is homophonic with pigs, and the strong and strong in the south was actually read by him as the strong and strong in the south." I'm really convinced! ”

The uncle has always been very confident in his son, and immediately believed: "My son, he is so smart, he even knows this, you can rest assured, our pigs are pigs from the south, and they must be very strong!" ”

The pigs of the south must be strong! Lin Yanchao almost laughed and fell down, it was really uncomfortable to endure it.

The uncle praised Lin Yanshou with a mouthful of praise, and Lin Yanshou said complacently: "Of course, the teacher has always praised me for being smart, saying that I will be the most poor in the future and a student, and it is not too easy for Zhongxiucai!" ”

Lin Yanchao couldn't help but slander, it is estimated that the tutor is for the sake of your grandfather Xie Laohu, so he praised you against his will.

The uncle said to Lin Yanshou: "Yanshou, you read so well, you have to teach your younger brother, so that our Lin family can show another talent." ”

Before Lin Yanchao could speak, Lin Yanshou said: "Brother, he can't study!" He can't even stop where he is, and he doesn't know it, so I don't want to teach him. ”

Lin Yanchao also nodded hurriedly and said, "Brother, you don't have to bother, it's because my qualifications are too poor, you can't handle it!" ”

"Dad, look at it, my brother said so."

Lin Yanchao couldn't bear to look at it directly, so he simply went back to study, he would rather study by himself than ask Lin Yanshou, what he didn't understand in the university chapters, so he simply waited to go back to social studies.
