Lujia Village is a small village. As the name suggests, dozens of families in this village are all named Lu. The head of this village is called Lu Wentao, and of course he is also the head of the clan. It is said that he was a magistrate in his early years, and after returning home, he took his tribe to take root in this place with mountains and rivers.
Lu Wentao, the old man was admitted to the county magistrate through the imperial examination and was admitted to the Jinshi, so in his eyes everything is inferior, only high school. He requested that all children in the clan as long as eight years old should come to clan school. As for him, he personally serves as the gentleman of this clan school, and his wish is to teach another scholar in his lifetime to shine in the line.
School is located in the center of the village. It is a bamboo house made of bamboos that resembles a pavilion. There are nine bamboo tables and chairs in the bamboo house, which are three horizontal and three vertical, and a rectangular bookcase is also placed in the front. The old man sat upright in front of the book table, holding a book in his left hand and a ruler in his right hand, shaking his head and reading the book. Sitting below was full of children of all ages, the older one was fifteen or sixteen years old, and the younger one was about eight or nine years old, following the old man to recite verses.
”Singing to wine, life geometry, such as the morning dew, there are many hardships in the days.”
”Singing to wine, life geometry, such as the morning dew, there are many hardships in the days.”
The old man reads one sentence, and the child reads the next sentence. Laozi glanced at the classroom from the corner of his eye, suddenly raised his eyelids, and in the right corner of the school, an eleven or twelve-year-old boy was lowering his head, not knowing what he was looking at.
“Lu Yu, what are you kid looking at?” the old man exclaimed in full anger.
“Lu Yu, what are you guys looking at.” The children underneath did not respond for a while, and they recited them as verses. When the children reacted, there was another roar of laughter.
“Quiet, what kind of decent way you are.” After all, the old man is a figure who has been a county magistrate. He can also be used as a gavel with a ruler to make a “pop-pop”. The child underneath immediately covered his mouth with his hand, and then cast his eyes on Lu Yu with a good look. Lu Yu also raised his head quickly at this time, pretending to be nonchalant. Lu Yu looked a little darker in complexion and still had pimples at his age. His appearance was very ordinary. Although he was thin, he looked very strong, like a small farmer who often worked in the field.
Lu Yu saw that everyone was watching him, so he hurriedly stood up and behaved to the old man. He opened his mouth and said: “Return to my grandfather, my grandson was just listening to your old reciting Cao Duke’s “Short Songs”, and he immediately felt his heart, so he leaned over to miss Cao Duke. “Lu Yu finally finished the lie with difficulty, leaning his hands behind him slowly Tuck the book slowly into the long sleeve.
”Are you dim-eyed when you are an old man? Are you watching “Sou Shen Ji” or “Shan Hai Jing” this time?” The old man asked with a smile. He knows this grandson well, and he has been caught reading this kind of magical books no fewer than a hundred times in class. Luckily, Lu Yu has a great memory, and he can remember almost all books, but it is a pity that he likes to read books about gods and ghosts. The old man had great expectations of this grandson since he was a child, and Lu Yu was not only able to remember, but also had a very high understanding. It’s a pity that with such a good talent, he is unwilling to read.
“Grandfather, can you not confiscated this book?” Lu Yu looked at the old man pitifully, tears were almost squeezed from his eyes.
“No.” The old man shook his head resolutely: “Hand it in. Come by and receive the penalty.”
Lu Yu slowly moved to the front of the book case very reluctantly, and slowly handed the crumpled book hidden in his sleeve to the old man. The old man took the book, but Lu Yu didn’t let go. The old man looked at Lu Yu curiously. Lu Yu hesitated for a long time and asked tentatively: “Grandfather, wait a few more times, don’t confiscate the book. Can you?”
The old man suddenly felt an unnamed fire rush. This child would rather get beaten up more, but also read these books about ghosts and gods. It’s really crazy. The old man’s face flushed with anger, and he was about to start a fire at Lu Yu. Suddenly, there was a flash of light in his head, and an idea came up. His face suddenly eased. The hand is still holding the end of the book, just thinking about the pros and cons and pros and cons of this idea in my head.
Lu Yu’s face turned red when he saw his grandfather just now, thinking that he must be detained by his grandfather this time, or asked his father to beat him up. Unexpectedly, my grandfather suddenly started to daze. Lu Yu thought: “It’s over, my grandfather must be thinking of punishing himself more severely. Alas, should I go to my grandmother’s place to hide for a few days before talking?”
Lu Yu is still thinking about it, the old man has made up his mind. The old man glanced at the bewildered grandson in front of him, and let go of his grasping book. Lu Yu felt that the book was heavy, and immediately raised his head to look at his grandfather. Grandfather looked at him with a smile on his face, and said in a gentle tone: “Since you like to read this book, take it. Come to my study later and take away the confiscated books.”
Lu Yu looked at his grandfather in surprise, with a bad feeling in his heart. Lu Yu didn’t remember how he finished the rest of the class. I spent the whole day thinking about why my grandfather had to return the book to him.
The old man has five sons. Lu Yu’s father is the second son of the old man. Lu Yu has been smart since he was a child, but never liked to behave in front of others. The old man also discovered by chance that Lu Yu, who was only three years old at the time, could read poetry and books.
The old man asked him at the time: “Who taught you to read and read?”
Xiao Lu Yu replied: “It was your grandfather who taught me.”
The old man was confused~IndoMTL.com~ asked: “When did I teach you?”
Xiao Lu Yu answered earnestly: “Didn’t my grandfather teach my brothers and sisters to read every day. I was playing in the mud outside the house, and I would read if I listened too much. Then I secretly turned over the books my grandfather taught every day, Literate.”
The old man suddenly realized that, no wonder there are always mud handprints on his books recently. It turned out that this kid made them. In the years after this, the old man often deliberately observed Lu Yu. I found that Lu Yu had an unforgettable ability and had a very good comprehension, but he did not like to read Confucian classics, and preferred to read Taoist, Buddhist, and spiritual books.
Lu Yu, holding a basket of books, returned to his home in the west of the village listlessly.
Lu Yu’s mother saw that her son was holding a large basket of books, and quickly took the basket with her hands, and saw Lu Yu look listless. Concerned and asked: “Your grandfather hit the board again.” Put the basket on the ground again, grab Lu Yu’s hand, and carefully check for any injuries.
“Mother, my grandfather didn’t hit me.” Lu Yu returned to his senses and replied.
“Then why do you look like this.” Lu Yu’s mother asked her son gently.
“Actually, I don’t know.” Lu Yu said the truth. “Grandfather originally wanted to beat me, but he returned the book to me for unknown reasons.
“If I didn’t hit you, I was afraid that you would annoy your grandfather again.” Lu Yu’s mother patted Lu Yu’s back and said, “Your father was called by your grandfather just now. I guess I will know what happened when I came back. .”
Lu Yu felt even more depressed when he heard this. I thought to myself, this matter is probably too small, and being beaten is definitely the best ending. Grandfather seems to be cruel this time.
