Liang Gonggong Jiucheng, who was invited back by Zhu Ying from the Ancient and Modern Tongji Library, seemed to be carefully examining his first student who had not been tortured by the palace, and he was also a student from an overseas foreign land, but in fact, he was distracted and listening to the conversation outside. After all, he can be regarded as having both civil and military cultivation since he was a child, even if he is not as good as those imperial attendants who specialize in martial arts, but his ears and eyes are naturally not a problem.

When he heard that Zhu Ying outside solemnly introduced him to Zhang Shou, and Zhang Shou bluntly praised him as a rare talent, even if he didn't smile on weekdays, and was in the ancient and modern collection library almost all day long, Liang Jiucheng couldn't help but show a smile.

When he came over this time, in addition to teaching the other party's Daming script, he also had another plan, that is, from the other party, he learned the other party's language and writing, and then passed it on in the palace. As for whether this writing and language is useful...... Emperor Taizu said it well, whether it is useful or not, learn it first and then talk about it, maybe the territory of the Ming Dynasty will really expand to that place in the future?

Therefore, when Liang Jiucheng retracted his thoughts and looked at the blonde boy in front of him, he said slowly: "From tomorrow onwards, you don't have to go to Jiuzhangtang, first learn Chinese characters with me." ”

Seeing that the young man's face changed greatly before he saw him, he obviously understood his words, and immediately wanted to say something, so he interrupted bluntly: "If you want to translate the Sutra, you have to learn the Sutra first, but how much can you understand what Master Zhang said in the Jiuzhang Hall?" How much do you dare to say you understand? In terms of arithmetic, he can be described as unique. ”

was stabbed so sharply a few words, Wu Dawei was suddenly dumbfounded. In the past few days, he has been attending classes there during the day, and at the same time trying to understand and catch up with the progress of Zhang Shou's teaching, but the result is completely different from what he imagined. He found that he didn't gradually understand, but the more he listened, the more he didn't understand!

That Mr. Zhang talked a lot about things, and it was very miscellaneous...... Some of them definitely do not fall into the category of geometry, but there are a lot of formulas involved.

Seeing the blond-haired young man looking around uneasily, Liang Jiucheng said earnestly: "I have all kinds of classics, and these are all things that you can't understand without learning words. Bachelor Zhang's Jiuzhangtang has two grades before and after, but because the seniors in the senior grades have been interning in Xuanfu Datong and various departments before, the progress is about the same as that of the juniors, and now they often take classes together. ”

"But we will enroll students every year in the future. Don't you think it's better if you just sit there and listen stupidly, it's better to learn the text well now, and then go to the Jiuzhangtang and be a real student? Of course, if you think that you can't learn my Chinese characters, and you will one day be sent to a mine to dig for the rest of your life, then I didn't say. ”

"I'm not afraid!"

Wu Dawei could only understand a little bit of the previous words, but in the end, he magically understood the part of the mine. And it was precisely because he understood that the boy was suddenly enraged.

Although he has always been careful and careful after suffering on the ship, trying to leave an obedient and useful impression, he is still the arrogant boy who looks down on others as an illegitimate child.

Although he didn't know the so-called agitation method, he had also seen businessmen use words to drive people into a corner, and he had also seen those bad tricks that set traps in words to lure people into taking the bait. He used to laugh at those who were fooled as fools, but at this time, the impulse completely occupied his mind, so much so that he blurted out: "Okay, I'll learn from you!" ”

To deal with such a young man who has not been deeply involved in the world, Liang Jiucheng will naturally be caught - if he can't be caught, he will live in vain.

The corners of his mouth raised slightly, and then he said casually, "Okay, let's start now." I have also taught a few illiterate Fanbang teenagers in the past, and I can be regarded as having some experience. The first lesson starts with writing a name. ”

"Now, say your name, your father's and grandfather's name, your mother's name. You don't need to panic, I know that the names of the Fanbang people are very strange and cannot be expressed in the words of this dynasty. So you just need to pronounce a sound, and then I will write down the corresponding pronunciation of the kanji. Of course, if you have the ability, you can also make up a name for these loved ones of yours. ”

It was another series of words that made people struggle to listen to it, and the blonde boy had to ask a few more questions, and finally stumbled and barely understood, but he suddenly fell into an embarrassment.

You know, his own name Undavian is based on the name of Augustus in the Roman Empire, and the most fortunate thing is that this eastern country happens to have a corresponding surname. To this end, it took him a long time to learn how to write these three not easy words, and then memorized them in his heart.

And now, if he does not want to divulge the names of his parents and grandfathers, then he will have to come up with them himself.

Although if you think about it, the leak is nothing, after all, what is the name of his father who was angry and suddenly greedy, so he had a big conflict with the ship, the captain must have asked people to find out, maybe everyone here knows, but he just doesn't want to say it. Anyway, in this eastern country, they don't care about this.

So, after thinking about it, he said word for word, "My father's name is Gaius, my mother's name is Dachia, and my grandfather's name is Marcus." "These are all very common names in ancient Rome, is it possible that you can still go all the way to find someone to confront you?

What a character Liang Jiucheng is, as soon as he heard it, he knew that this should be the blonde kid in front of him talking nonsense. However, he didn't care whether people gave them fake names or not, so he said indifferently at the moment: "Since you named yourself Wu Dawei, it is the surname Wu, and if you claim that your grandfather and father are such Fanbang names, it is not appropriate." ”

"Your father's name is Gaius, then he is called Wu Gai, and your grandfather's name is Marcus, then he is called Wu Si. As for your mother, Dachia, in my court, when a woman marries, she may be replaced by her husband's surname. Even if your mother is a housewife, you can also call it Wu Dai. The surname is the foundation of a person's life in my China, so you have to remember it! ”

At this moment, not to mention that Wu Dawei was unconsciously stunned by Liang Jiucheng's soft voice, even Zhang Shou outside the door felt that this kind of understatement gave people the name of the Ming Dynasty again, which was really eunuch...... Well, in these years, because there are too few servants in the palace, and there is no collusion with foreign officials, it seems that there is no climate, so the word eunuch is not popular at all.

And Liang Jiucheng didn't seem to realize how strong his faint tone just now was, and after smiling, he said, "However, I have to go and talk to Master Zhang and Mrs. Zhang, you need to have a study." After all, Mr. Zhang's study is going to be useful, and he can't spare it for you. ”

Even at home, Wu Dawei didn't have his own study, although he felt that the other party was too tough at this time, but seeing that people really went out to discuss the study with Zhang Shou and Zhu Ying, he couldn't help but find that this teacher seemed to be pretty good.

Zhang Yuan now has a lot of guests, one more is not more, one less is not less, and after the wedding banquet, those rooms that were used to put the west side were also vacated, so Zhang Shou heard Liang Jiucheng put forward that he hoped to give Wu Dawei a study, and after he asked Zhu Ying, he immediately called Ah Liu and asked if there was any empty room at home.

But when he was asking, Liang Jiucheng said with a smile: "If there is an empty room, you might as well leave one for me." If my old bones go back and forth between the palace and here every day, even if the distance is not far, they can't afford to toss. ”

Zhang Shou was taken aback. Dare to love this strange man Liang Gonggong, who is disabled and strong-willed, actually plans to live in his house and become a veritable tutor...... No, Mr. Sissy?

If this is his children, it would be normal for people to be so conscientious, but Wu Dawei, a teenager from Florence, Italy, can't be this Liang Gonggong who hit it off at first sight, cough cough, so he plans to take his son in, right?

Thinking so in his heart, Zhang Shou's face didn't show it at all, and he simply asked Ah Liu: "Is there a single courtyard at home?" ”

Zhu Ying saw Ah Liu's eyes blinking, as if she was really thinking about whether there was a suitable empty house, she couldn't help but laugh suddenly, and then said with a smile: "Ah Liu, Liang Gonggong is very knowledgeable, if a person like him stays, the children from Rongshui Village in the family may still be able to go to class, this is really worth it!" ”

"If you dare to say that you don't have a house at home, you are neglecting your guests, and I will punish you to go back and be a stake for three days to accompany me to practice swords!"

Even if Liang Jiucheng had never seen Ah Liu before, when he saw that Miss Zhu was talking to someone in such an intimate tone, he knew who it was, so he said politely at the moment: "This is Little Sixth Master?" Hehe, the young lady is putting gold on my face, I have no other skills, that is, to pass the time in the pile of old books, where can I say what is profound. ”

"The kid in the house isn't a big guy, and I'm not a big guy, so I don't need a small courtyard. If there is no empty house, see if there is a place to pile up sundries such as a firewood room, I can take him to clean up, and it doesn't have to be too troublesome. ”

Ah Liu didn't care about how many more people there were in the family, but he cared if the newcomers were the ones the young master and the eldest lady really wanted to stay. Since Zhang Shou and Zhu Ying both said that this Liang Jiucheng was useful, and the blonde young man in the study was obviously the person that the young master needed, of course he was seriously thinking about which empty house was suitable for the other party to live in.

And at present, the new Liang Gonggong is like those generals in the Zhao Guogong Mansion, he is polite to him, and he does not rely on being uncontrolled by the palace, and feels respected, so his decision is naturally made quickly.

"In the northwest corner of the outer courtyard, next to the courtyard of Song Gongzi and Fang Gongzi, there is still a small empty courtyard, although it is not big, but it has been cleaned up before, and the utensils inside are also very complete. Father-in-law Liang can move over with that Wu Dawei. But ......"

Speaking of this, he suddenly paused: "However, this Wu Dawei was originally the emperor's Chrysostom Yuyan, and asked him to do miscellaneous work in the public school to compensate for the expenses of accommodation, study, etc." But he couldn't stay in the public school, and others also looked at him as clumsy and unpleasant, so the young master brought him back to be a scholar. If he wants to live in Zhang Yuanbai, it won't work. ”

Zhu Ying didn't expect Ah Liu to hold on to this, you must know that even Zhang Shou didn't care about this, she suddenly couldn't cry or laugh. You know, she invited such a truly knowledgeable figure among the inner servants, but she didn't even mention Shu Xiu!

However, she has always liked Ah Liu's character of turning his elbow inward, so when she saw Zhang Shou smiling and silent, she simply didn't speak, and only smiled to see how Liang Jiucheng reacted.

Sure enough, this father-in-law Liang, who has been in the ancient and modern Tongji library for thirty years, seems to be unfamiliar with the world, but he was not angered by Ah Liu at all, but said with a smile: "Although this kid has things to learn, but there is a way to combine work and rest, and in his spare time outside of study, of course he should work in Mr. Zhang's study to compensate." ”

He hesitated slightly for a moment, and then added: "Even I, an idler, who lives here, can also help Mr. Zhang sort out the books in the study." After all, that's what I'm good at. ”

At this time, Zhang Shou finally couldn't continue to watch the excitement. He hurriedly snorted and said, "Father-in-law Liang, Ah Liu has always been true, don't worry about him in general." How can I afford to help me tidy up my study with such a knowledge? However, I have already brought back all the overseas classics sent by Gonggong Chen before. You're fluent in multiple languages, so you might know what to learn. ”

Liang Jiucheng suddenly smiled bitterly: "Bachelor Zhang thinks too highly of me, the so-called proficient in multiple languages, but it took me decades, and I can't understand the Taizu manuscripts in the ancient and modern collection library." Emperor Taizu was a true scholar, and although the words in his posthumous manuscript resembled those from the west, they were incomprehensible to any chamberlain who had been proficient in multiple languages for a hundred years. ”

"But it's not like the book that the ship brought back this time...... At least some people still recognize it, it is the common language among Western monks and princes and nobles. But even if you translate with the ship, you can't find a few who can say a little bit, so you can't understand this text, alas, the people in the palace who know those Western languages are almost impossible to find, and they are really not as good as when the country was founded. ”

Zhang Shou heard Liang Jiucheng sigh that Emperor Taizu was a pedantic celestial, and others couldn't understand it even if they were language geniuses, so it was easy for him to hold his face and not show any flaws. That's Chinese English that's a step further than pinyin.,If you can understand it, it's a god!

He didn't want to continue this topic, so he immediately followed the tone that Zhu Ying had just said when he introduced Liang Jiucheng to Ah Liu, and half-jokingly and half-seriously, hoping that when Liang Jiucheng was teaching Wu Dawei, he would let the children in the family who had almost no foundation follow along.

Mr. Xixi in this year, even if he has no fame, he often exalts himself and is only willing to teach the son-in-law of the master's family, and Liang Jiucheng's knowledge is several mountains and seas higher than that of the average Mr. Xixi, and he doesn't know how many mountains and seas he knows, in the face of Zhang Shou's request that most readers will think humiliating, Liang Jiucheng agreed.

"Since they are all almost illiterate, it is no different if there is one more or one less. However, I have been in the Ancient and Modern Tongji Library for many years, but there are only two real students, not because I am picky, but because I am strict. Don't talk about Mr. Zhang, these little guys in your family are the ones in the house, how long he can last under my hands, but I can't say. ”

Zhang Shou suddenly remembered the students who were abused to death by Jiuzhangtang's sea tactics, but they gritted their teeth one by one, and felt that he had a common language with this Liang Gonggong for a while. Therefore, he didn't even think about it, so he smiled and said: "Master Yan is a high apprentice, Gonggong Liang, you just have to train at your pace, if anyone is lazy and slippery......" As he spoke, he directly stretched out his hand and pointed at Ah Liu: "I have Ah Liu to teach them!" ”
