Chapter 6 The first day of the school

The Zhang family's family science is quite famous, because there once was a Jieyuan in this family. Although Jieyuan was not the number one scholar, it should be noted that Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang thought that all the scholars he obtained after the opening of the imperial examination in the fifth year of Hongwu were

Some young people who were born later did not take the scientific examination for thirteen years, and it was not until the eighteenth year of Hongwu that the subject was opened again to obtain scholars. Therefore, Jie Yuan in the rural examination is also very valuable. Now the Jie Yuan who was born in the Zhang family of Xiangfu is in

How can you not envy others when you are so successful in the imperial court?

Yes, that Jie Yuan is the legitimate son of the Gu family, Zhang Xin, the eldest son of the Xiangfu Zhang family, is now the right minister of the Ministry of Industry of the third rank.

Zhang Yue had studied for more than ten years in his previous life, but now he was reduced to studying with a group of children. He felt somewhat sad in his heart. However, the two brothers Zhang Chao and Zhang Qi who were traveling with him were not at all interested.

None of them had the consciousness to go to school. They just walked and bickered all the way there. They were all still thinking about the competition yesterday, and they didn't take studying at all.

For a long time, the two couldn't argue about the reason, so they simply pulled Zhang Yue and asked him to judge who was better at martial arts. The shouting almost deafened his ears. After wasting a lot of time, he just let the two

The two guys stopped arguing. But when he could see the blue-tiled and red-tiled school in the distance, he was once again firmly held hostage by two brothers, one on the left and the other on the right.

Zhang Qi was impatient and took the lead to remind him: "Third brother, when you went to attend the class, you told the teacher that we were both sick!"

Zhang Chao is older and speaks in a serious manner: "It was our fault that made you fall out of the tree last time, but it's useless for you to follow us out with your body. You'd better study hard. In short, go to school.

You cover up the matter for us two brothers, and you will get a share of any benefits we get at that time."

These two guys...are skipping classes so aggressively? Zhang Yue simply didn't know what to say. When he took a closer look, the six who were following the two brothers in class were all sturdy young men in their early twenties, and they were all full of smiles.

His face was thick and fleshy, and his posture definitely didn't look like he was going to school, but like he was going to fight. Looking at the two thin schoolboys behind him, he suddenly became speechless.

Seeing that Zhang Yue just remained silent, Zhang Chao didn't say much. He patted him on the shoulder with a smile and walked away. Even though there were several classmates from Ethnology who were walking towards him,

He was just chatting with his brother about where they should go to play today, and didn't take it seriously.

Originally, the Zhang family has been working in the Privy Council since the end of the Yuan Dynasty. They have always sought to start with military merit, and this study is just incidental. Furthermore, no matter how much studying is done, how many people can get a title?

It wasn't until the two brothers disappeared from sight that Zhang Yue pinched his fingers and counted, then he remembered that he had been here only a handful of times. And even if Zhang Chao and Zhang Qi had gone to school with him

, often the two people stay in the classroom for a while and then disappear without a trace. Of course, "he" himself is not much better. It originally belonged to Zhang Yue's memory, but he didn't write down any of the Four Books and Five Classics and the Analects of Confucius.

It seems like I was in a daze when I was in school.

There are a total of fifty or sixty students in the Zhang family school, with different ages and different progress. Therefore, those under twelve years old study in the east courtyard, and those above twelve years old attend classes in the west courtyard. The person in charge is a cousin of the Zhang family named Zhang.

You're Zhang Yue's uncle in terms of seniority. Standing at the door, he heard Zhang Yue say that Zhang Chao and Zhang Qi's brothers were sick and couldn't come, so he nodded and let Zhang Yue in without saying a word.

ask.

"That stupid Zhang Xiaosan is here again!"

"Let's make a bet to see how many days he can go to school this time?"

"Three days!"

"He persisted for a month last time. He can't die in three days? I bet you half a month!"

Hearing these messy sounds, Zhang Yue thought he had returned to a modern third-rate school. In the impression that he was sitting in the second seat from the left in the first row, he glanced left and right and found that the seats next to him belonged to Zhang Chao and Zhang Qi's brothers.

Not to mention it was empty, but the rows at the back were also empty. On the contrary, the seats in the next few rows were filled with 70% to 80% people, but except for a few people who were sitting upright, the others were talking loudly and chatting there.

At this moment, he only had one thought in his mind - from ancient times to the present, the world has been as dark as crows!

Soon, Mr. Du, who was teaching, arrived on time with the sound of the cloud board. He opened the book and began to explain the Analects of Confucius. Zhang Yue listened, but his eyes couldn't help but glanced forward, backward, left, and right, and saw that only those who were listening seriously were

I just saw those young people sitting there, the other students were sleeping and drawing, and there were two arrogant ones chatting there, and their voices were actually louder than the gentleman above.

After a moment of distraction, Zhang Yue began to listen attentively. Since he was in this era, he was likely to try to take the imperial examination, and now he had to study hard. When he listened carefully, he felt that this

Mr. Du is very talented. Not only does he not read books at all when he lectures, but he speaks out allusions, and he also intersperses a few modern and ancient annotations from time to time. The only pity is that just like that plain face, this person's voice is also flat.

There are no ups and downs, and it is easy to make people fall asleep when listening to it.

As he listened, he unknowingly followed his previous habit, taking a stack of paper and picking up important notes while listening. However, he had not used the brush for many years since junior high school, and he could understand traditional Chinese characters.

He couldn't write, so the words he wrote were barely straight, but there were a lot of simplified Chinese characters mixed in. After listening to the class, he actually took down a pile of class notes, and his wrists were sore.

It felt as if someone had beaten him.

Rubbing his wrists before raising his head, he found the dull-faced Mr. Du standing in front of him. He was just guessing the purpose of this person's visit, but he didn't expect that the ink-stained papers in front of him had been pulled away. When he saw

When Mr. Du frowned and read each one, he couldn't help but feel his scalp numb.

Oh my God, more than half of the characters there are in simplified Chinese!

He waited in fear for a long time, but Mr. Du put down the stack of paper and said calmly: "It's good to be able to write down these. However, even if the characters are incomplete, they cannot be replaced by these ghost symbols in the future. The characters are

It is the foundation of knowledge and cannot be ignored."

Zhang Yue felt like he was being pardoned and quickly stood up. It wasn't until Mr. Du walked out of the door with his hands behind his back that he breathed a long sigh of relief. At this time, seeing that it was rest time, the group of boys and students waiting outside ran away in a flash.

When they came in, some brought tea to the master, some brought snacks to the master, and some rubbed the master's arms and legs. The noise almost overturned the house.

There were no watches or wall clocks these days, so Zhang Yue couldn't tell what time it was, and he just felt unbearably thirsty. So he drank a lot of tea, ate a piece of jujube paste cake to fill his stomach, and then sent the two bookboys away.

He went out. Unexpectedly, just as the two obstructionists disappeared, three more people suddenly appeared in front of him. One of them arrogantly reached out and picked up a piece of paper from his desk, pretended to take a look at it, and burst into laughter.

"I thought Zhang Xiaosan, how come you have grown so much that you made so many typos, hahahaha!"

PS: I will update three chapters today to make up for what I wrote yesterday...I scrapped a 10,000-word manuscript the day before yesterday, and I cried bitterly, but it was not good and I had to rewrite it, alas.

In addition, I deleted a book review this morning. I am not a super expert, but I actually got involved with the shady story. That person is really talented...
Chapter completed!
