Chapter 676: Testing Fang Zhong

"I'm reading the Book of Songs!" Uncle Nangong Jing said.

"I'm reading Shangshu!" Fang Zhong replied.

"You two come here! Talk to me! Lao Tzu beckoned to the two, then turned around and left.

Nangong Jing Shu and Fang Zhong glanced at each other, then put down the book and followed behind Lao Tzu.

Lao Tzu came to the desk and sat down, looked at the two little babies who followed, and did not speak. He took a look: how good are these two little babies?

Nangong Jingshu and Fang Zhong stood there and looked at Lao Tzu stupidly, seeing that Lao Tzu didn't react at all, but looked at them instead, the two of them were stunned on the spot.

But! In a matter of moments, they all moved together.

"Does the gentleman drink tea?" Uncle Nangong Jing stepped forward and asked while checking the tea set.

Fang Zhong didn't speak, just bent down and cleaned up the table in front of Lao Tzu. Starting

Seeing that the two little babies were really clever and passed the exam, Lao Tzu was very satisfied.

Uncle Nangong Jing saw that the tea was cold, and he was so anxious. To know! He was an aristocrat and was served from an early age. Outcome! Now he has to serve others, and he is really not used to it.

It was at this time! Lao Tzu's assistant in the Zhou Tibetan room came over with a hot water canister.

Lao Tzu sat there without speaking, looking at the three of them.

The assistant saw that Lao Tzu was testing the two little babies, so he didn't speak, put down the hot water tank and left.

These two little babies are very fine, they know it, but they don't have the idea of taking the exam. Seeing Lao Tzu testing the two, he remembered: It turned out! Fang Zhong is the son of Fang Jishi.

If there was no such relationship, Lao Tzu would not have so many things.

After Fang Zhong finished sorting out the case, he came over to help. Seeing that Uncle Nangong Jing was at a loss, he took the initiative. Quickly take the teacup and pour it, and then come back to make tea.

He is not an aristocrat, he is used to doing it himself.

Uncle Nangong Jing is diligent and makes a good impression. But? Born in the aristocracy, he really doesn't know how to serve people. Seeing that Fang Zhong could do anything, he had to stand aside and watch awkwardly.

Lao Tzu saw that Fang Zhong was very capable, and he was very satisfied.

This little baby! It really looks like a cornerstone.

"Thank you!" Lao Tzu saw that Fang Zhong served very thoroughly, and said "thank you" to the two. And then! Motioned for the two to sit down.

"You sit! I'll go over there and get a mat. Fang Zhong asked Uncle Nangong Jing to sit, and he went to move the seat.

How many years ago was Lao Tzu's case, wasn't Confucius sitting before? So! There is a seat.

Uncle Nangong Jing glanced at Fang Zhong, and then sat down.

He was a nobleman, accustomed to being served. So! Take everything for granted.

"Hehehe!" Lao Tzu smiled: "I still have a set of seats here!" ”

Talking! Reached out and picked it up and handed it to Fang Zhong.

Fang Zhong hurriedly took it and spread the seat beside Uncle Nangong Jing. Outcome! Uncle Nangong Jing and Lao Tzu are face to face. And Fang Zhong! It deviates a bit and becomes an oblique angle.

After sitting down, Fang Zhong found out about this situation. Before! He didn't pay attention either. Seeing this, he couldn't help but snicker.

I thought: You Nangong Jing Uncle Niu Bi! You? Do you dare to sit face to face with Lao Tzu? You?

Yesterday, Confucius also sat face to face with Lao Tzu like this, you are a cow! You have become "the Confucius of today".

Uncle Nangong Jing didn't notice these little details at all, really! I don't know.

When everything calmed down, Lao Tzu interrogated Uncle Nangong Jing about the content and understanding of the "Book of Songs"? First of all, Uncle Nangong Jing read the one in the "Book of Songs" just now? And then! This is the beginning of the cross-examination.

On the surface! It's small talk, communication. In fact! It was to test Uncle Nangong Jing unconsciously. Outcome! This Uncle Nangong Jing really deserves to be from an aristocratic school, and he can answer them one by one.

Seeing that the little guy was still very good, Lao Tzu was very satisfied.

And then! began to ask Fang Zhong: Where did you read "Shangshu" just now? How did you choose to read Shangshu? How can a child want to read a book?

"Sir has given me my homework! Let's look at the Book of Shang! Fang Zhong replied.

"Sir? Who is your husband? Is it Kongqiu? Confucius? Lao Tzu asked suspiciously.

I thought: At Fang Zhong's age, it is too early to read a book like "Shangshu". Such a small baby is difficult to understand. Without adult interpretation, it can be said that it is basically incomprehensible.

"Confucius is also my husband, and I used to study with him. Afterward! I went to Jifu. Let me read "Shangshu" is the gentleman of Ji Fu, who said that he wants to take an exam! Dr. Ji will test us! ”

"Oh?" Lao Tzu understood and nodded.

Originally! It was arranged by Ji Pingzi, not by Mr. Jifu. Fang Zhong lived in the Ji Mansion and received an aristocratic education from the Ji Mansion.

Aristocrat! In particular, royal families generally have to receive a special education. Because! They will all have a chance to inherit the title in the future. Other words! They are all going to be officials in the future. So! Must read books on "management" in government affairs.

"Can you read that?" Lao Tzu asked.

"I don't know anything!" Fang Zhong replied honestly.

"Ignorance?"

"Back to Mr. Word! I can understand a little. There are many things that can only be understood if Mr. interprets them! I don't even know the name, etc.! "The starters

"Oh! Also! Seeing that Fang Zhong was so honest, Lao Tzu was even more satisfied.

Afterwards! asked about what Fang Zhong had studied (about the content in the book), and Fang Zhong answered very well.

Lao Tzu nodded with satisfaction, thinking: Fang Zhong, Ji Pingzi's future grandson-in-law, can inherit the title and be a good nobleman. Not only can he manage his fiefdom well, but he can also participate in the affairs of the Lu State. (Initial launch, domain name (remember _ three.)

Other words! Fang Zhong will be able to be an official in the court of Lu State in the future.

After the exam, Lao Tzu did not forget: preaching to the two little ones.

Preach! Spreading his Taoism was a major event in his life in the future.

Since "Taoism" has been successfully created, it is necessary to spread Taoism.

Taoism is not that complicated, as long as you are willing to accept it, you can understand it! Learn the Tao! There is no distinction between age and education. Opposite! A person who has a hard time and doubts about life is more receptive to Taoism.

For the little ones! Although they have not experienced the vicissitudes of the world, but! They were spotless! So! No matter what ideas you spread to them, they are passively receptive.

In modern language, people are a blank sheet of paper, and you are allowed to scribble on it.

"Whether you read the Book of Songs or the Book of Songs, what kind of thought are you learning, first of all! You have to understand life! If you can't understand: why do people live, what do they live for? So! Your life has been in vain!

Someone said! Life is not interesting. But! We're going to give it a meaning, and then life. I think! This is so vulgar! What if you give the wrong meaning? Isn't it? ……”
