After Jiang Wan took the collection back, she took advantage of the fact that the sky was still bright and sat in the courtyard to look at it seriously. She took a small bench and sat down, holding a thin branch in her hand, and gesturing on the dirt ground at her feet. "The Book of Three Characters" is the simplest enlightenment reading, Jiang Wan still read it when she was a child, and after reading it a few more times, she picked up all the memories she had memorized when she was a child. According to her memory and the book in her hand, this "Three Character Classic" is not difficult for her at all, she only needs to be familiar with the writing of traditional characters.

For modern people who understand simplified characters, most traditional characters can be recognized, but it is a bit difficult to write and need to deepen the memory. She couldn't remember the words she could recognize when she opened her eyes, and as soon as her eyes were closed, she couldn't remember how to write every gesture in traditional Chinese. Therefore, compared with the book, Jiang Wan wrote and drew on the side while reading, and practiced several times if it was difficult to write until she remembered it.

Jiang Wan has never been able to work in the field of the Jiang family, and Jiang Wan in the past generally helped Xu Fenggu clean up the house, prepare three meals a day, and do embroidery work when it is empty on weekdays. It's just that Jiang Wan's cooking skills are barely enough, and the embroidery work can't be put on the table. Fortunately, her head is still injured now, and she doesn't let Xu Fenggu if she wants to help, so she just asks her to rest. She had seen the wound on her forehead, but in fact, it was only a small piece of the scalp, which had already scabbed over, and it would be healed after a while. Because at present, Xu Fenggu didn't let Jiang Wan help, and she didn't force it, so she hurried up to read the book.

The courtyard was quiet, Jiang Wan was fascinated, and it wasn't until it was getting dark that she stretched her waist and put the book back in her room. Xu Fenggu had warned her not to think about Pei You before, and Jiang Wan couldn't tell Xu Fenggu that she was hooking up with Pei You, and she could hide it for as long as she could. Maybe by the time Xu Fenggu knew, she would have successfully hooked up with Pei You? When the time comes, she gets her wish, Pei You has found a good wife like her, and Xu Fenggu no longer has to feel guilty about her reputation as a kefu, wouldn't everyone be happy?

After returning from the county seat, Jiang Funian, who couldn't stay idle, took Jiang Gu to the field, and didn't come back until it was dark, Jiang Wan helped set the dishes and chopsticks, and the family had dinner in a quiet and warm atmosphere. After the meal, Jiang Wan rushed to wash the dishes, and then led Jiang Gu to walk around his home twice casually to eat, looking at Pei You's house not far away from time to time, but he didn't go over.

When it gets dark, there are very few lights in the village. Rural people have always had a poor nightlife, and in order to save lamp oil, they basically slept at night. It's just that Pei You's house faintly reveals the light of a little oil lamp. Pei You has to teach during the day, although he can also use his free time to read, but after all, there is not enough time, and he always has to spend some time studying in the evening. In the spring of next year, his mother said that he had to go, otherwise he would hang himself, he was a filial son, so he naturally had to listen to his mother's words, study hard, take the Jinshi exam and come back, and be an official so that his mother would enjoy the blessings.

Jiang Wan saw the lights of Pei You's house, and could guess that he was working hard at the moment, and felt that in addition to his hard work, she was also inspired. In order to get rid of the identity of illiteracy, she also has to fight!

The next day, when it was still bright, I felt a sound outside, guessing that her mother got up, Jiang Wan also closed her eyes and fumbled to get dressed, yawning and leaving the room.

As soon as Xu Fenggu saw her come out, she immediately said, "Wanwan, why did you get up so early?" Mother woke you up? It's still early for you to go to sleep. ”

Jiang Wan shook her head: "Mother, I'm awake, I'm not sleepy anymore." She yawned as she spoke.

Xu Fenggu smiled: "Are you still sleepy?" I don't need you to get up early to work, go back to bed. ”

Jiang Wan got up, where was she willing to listen, she dodged Xu Fenggu's hand, ran outside to wash her face with cold water, and finally came to her senses, turned her head and smiled at Xu Fenggu who came over: "Mother, I'm already awake." ”

Xu Fenggu was angry: "My mother told you a long time ago not to wash your face with cold water, but you don't listen, what if you catch a cold?" ”

Jiang Wan said coquettishly: "Mother, where am I so weak?" It's still hot, but where is it going to get cold? Mother, you go and get busy, Dad should get up to find food in a while, can you bear that he is hungry? ”

"That's all there is to you, girl!" Xu Fenggu poked Jiang Wan's cheek lightly, didn't say anything more, turned around and went to the kitchen.

Jiang Wan brushed her teeth with wicker dipped in salt, washed her face carefully, and then ran to feed the chickens, clean the yard, and then go back to the kitchen to help. When the family finished breakfast, she rushed to wash the dishes again and watched Jiang Funian and Jiang Gu leave.

Xu Fenggu planned to make Jiang Wan's new clothes today, measured her size, and kicked her out. Jiang Wan went back to her room and took the collection booklet, sat down on the bench silently, and sank into the ocean of knowledge again. By noon, she found that she had read more than half of the thin booklet. "The Book of Three Characters" is not difficult, she saw it almost yesterday, she has not memorized "Hundred Family Names", it looks a little laborious, "Thousand Character Text" is even more complicated, she has to wait until she finishes reading "Hundred Family Names".

Although Pei You asked Jiang Wan to go to him after reading "The Three Character Classic", for the purpose of hooking up, she really should do that, just holding this collection, her obsessive-compulsive disorder seems to be committed, and she doesn't want to see him if she doesn't finish reading it. Therefore, after reading "The Three Character Classic", she continued to watch "Hundred Family Names", ready to read it to the end.

After hiding the books, Jiang Wan helped Xu Fenggu, who was only halfway through the new clothes, to make lunch, and after eating, Xu Fenggu continued to make clothes, while she continued to read. By the end of the night, she had almost finished eating the booklet.

The next morning, Jiang Wan finally finished reading the last and most difficult "Thousand Character Text", and remembered what she could remember, so she quietly ran to Pei You's house next door with a full sense of achievement. This time, the courtyard door of Pei You's house was not closed, and when he saw her coming, Pei You asked the children to read aloud as usual, and he walked out.

Jiang Wan took the initiative to stand in the shadow under the plane tree in front of his house, so that anyone who passed by from a distance would not notice her.

Jiang Wan first handed the collection booklet to Pei You, who took it strangely and asked casually, "But it's too difficult?" ”

Jiang Wan shook her head and smiled: "I have already read and memorized everything I recognize, and there are about a hundred words that I really don't recognize." These words are basically concentrated in "Thousand Words", and she couldn't make out what words they were with great effort, so she had to come to Pei You.

Pei You looked surprised: "What? Do you remember them all? ”

It's only been two days, and she's taught herself how many words she can recognize? There are more than 1,100 words in the "Three Character Classic", and there are hundreds of repetitive words removed, but she said in two days that she only recognizes more than 100 ...... It's amazing! She had said that she was not very literate, but he thought it was a polite statement, and he remembered that she did not seem to have studied, and thought in his heart that she might only know the simplest three or five words. Children in the countryside, even boys, rarely go to school, let alone ordinary peasant girls. There are a total of seven students in his private school, and they come from several villages.

Jiang Wan said seriously: "Yes, Mr. Pei, I have memorized everything I can remember, and I still need Mr. Pei to teach me how to pronounce these hundred or so words." ”

Pei You looked at Jiang Wan with a look of disbelief, what she said was unreasonable, but if she said that she was lying to him, wouldn't it be debunked all of a sudden?

As if seeing the shock in Pei You's heart, Jiang Wan burst out laughing: "Mr. Pei, don't you believe it?" It doesn't matter, even if you test me, if I lie to you, you can drive away me, an unsuccessful student who deceived teachers and destroyed ancestors. ”

Pei You's face was embarrassed, but he really wanted to see it for granted, so he went back to the yard and took a long branch out and handed it to Jiang Wan: "I'll read the last sentence, and you write down the sentence." ”

Jiang Wan took the branch: "Mr. Pei, please." ”

Pei You said: "At the beginning of people. ”

Jiang Wan quickly wrote "Sex is good".

Pei You said again: "Don't teach." ”

Jiang Wan wiped off the words on the ground with her foot, and wrote "sex is migration" without hesitation.

Pei You said: "Xiang Jiuling." ”

Jiang Wan wrote "can warm the seat".

……

The more Pei You took the test, the more surprised she became, she didn't make any mistakes or omissions at all, until he unconsciously finished the entire "Three Character Classic" before he found out that it was wrong. Didn't she say that there were more than a hundred words that she didn't recognize? How come you didn't make a single mistake?

Pei You took a deep breath, and finally accepted that Jiang Wanxu was a person with a high level of understanding, and handed her the book and said, "What words do you not recognize?" ”

Jiang Wan took the book and flipped to the back: "This word, this word, and this, this ......"

After pointing a few points and finding that Pei You didn't react, Jiang Wan looked up at him: "Mr. Pei?" ”

Pei You's eyes were full of surprise: "This book ...... You, you've read it all? He watched her click on a few words in "Hundred Family Names", and turned directly to the back, and the more than 100 words originally referred to the "Thousand Character Text"!

Jiang Wan then remembered that her previous conversation with him didn't seem to mention that she had finished reading the book, so she said, "I've almost finished the whole book, and there are still more than a hundred words I don't recognize." ”

Pei You's eyes looking at Jiang Wan at this moment were so weird that people couldn't bear to look at them directly. The Three Character Classic is the simplest book for children, but it always takes a few months to teach students to recite it before they can move on to the next step. But what about her? He thought it was amazing that she could finish reading "The Book of Three Characters" and remember it in two days, but she didn't expect that she even finished reading "Hundred Family Names" and "Thousand Character Text"!

"After and after the last two, you can memorize them?" Pei You swallowed.

Jiang Wan shook her head: "I can only memorize the "Three Character Classic" now, and I can't memorize the last two." ”

Hearing this, Pei You breathed a long sigh of relief and felt a little comforted. If she could go from not being able to read to memorizing these three enlightenment books in two days, he didn't know what she would be shocked into. Although now he was amazed by her intelligence and understanding.

Jiang Wan liked Pei You's amazed look at her, but thinking that she was a traverser after all, and it was best not to make anyone suspicious of this matter, she explained: "Mr. Pei, I have learned a few words from people in the past and memorized them, so I can memorize the "Three Character Classic" in two days. ”

"I see, that's ......" Jiang Wan's explanation really made Pei You a little more acceptable.

Jiang Wan handed over the collection: "Mr. Pei, can you teach me how to pronounce these words?" ”

There are so many words that she doesn't recognize, but she has read them, which has become a thorn in her heart, and it is naturally uncomfortable to pull it out.

Seeing that Jiang Wan's desire for knowledge was so high, Pei You also busied her look and taught her to read. More than a hundred words are a lot, but Jiang Wan can remember them quickly, but within a few minutes, Pei You read them all to her, and she remembered them all.

"Mr. Pei, thank you!" Jiang Wan showed a relieved smile on her face, and put away the collection, "How many more days can I borrow this book?" ”

Pei You had planned to lend this book for a long time, so naturally he would not refuse: "You just take it." He paused, and was about to say that he could come to him again if he had a problem, when he saw Jiang Wan smile.

"I delayed Mr. Pei's time today, thank you Mr. Pei, then I'll go back first, Mr. Pei, you go and get busy!" Jiang Wan smiled, turned around and left.

Pei You opened his mouth and looked at Jiang Wan's eager back, with mixed feelings in his heart.

That Xu Da Niu is really nonsense! Miss Jiang Wan obviously just wants to read and write, how can she have those strange thoughts? Fortunately, he didn't say anything to her, otherwise he would have been embarrassed.

He let out a long sigh of relief, and turned back to the courtyard, with a melancholy on his face that even he was not aware of.
