"Man's nature is good at birth. Their natures are similar, but their habits are different. If you don't teach, your nature will change. The way of teaching is to specialize … "
The weather was clear today, and even the morning was much warmer than usual.
Zhang Xiao, the village chief of Zhang Village, was invited to visit the Li Family Zhuangzi. As soon as he entered the village, he heard the sound of children chanting.
Then, he and the two elders who came with him were all dumbfounded.
"What, what is this?" Zhang Xiao had goosebumps all over his body.
The crisp children's voice and the content of the lesson that he had never heard before made him shiver.
The two elders who came with Zhang Xiao were even more stunned. They were shocked by what the child was chanting.
In layman's terms, it was … too good to listen to.
They only hated themselves for being so uneducated.
Children's enlightenment could be played like this? The Li Family Zhuangzi was going to ascend to the heavens.
The three of them stood and listened for a long time before they came back to their senses.
The elder who looked a little older slowly exhaled and said to the village chief, "Xiao Lang, have you ever seen this village in Dongzhu?"
"Ninth Uncle, no." Zhang Xiao shook his head gently.
"Maybe they invited a master from somewhere," the other elder said.
Zhang Xiao nodded. "I think so too."
Then he said, "I wonder if we can learn this. The children in the village will have another book to learn."
The two elders nodded their heads in agreement.
Zhang Village was close to Chang 'an, so there was no shortage of teachers.
However, the only lessons that were taught were the Thousand Character Classic, the Classic of Filial Piety, and the Analects of Confucius. After that, there were the Er Ya and Li Sao.
After that, there were the Five Classics.
What was the Li Family Village teaching? The three words were easy to read, and it was even more comfortable than the Thousand Character Classic.
It was scary.
The three of them continued to walk along the gravel road.
Li Chengqi, who had hurried over early in the morning, was also stunned.
He followed and said, "In the past, Mother Meng chose a neighbor. If you don't learn, you choose to change. "
Then he looked up to the sky and sighed. "What a good lesson. Who in the village is so talented?"
He clenched his fists and led his men to the students' houses.
Some students were holding a piece of paper, shaking their heads as they recited the words that the children were reciting.
"Where did you come from?" Li Chengqi stood aside and asked without any trace of politeness.
"Ah? Ah! This is called the Three Character Classic. Brother Li felt that there were not enough books for children, so he personally wrote it. "
The student knew Li Chengqi. He shook the paper twice and answered with a look of admiration.
"Written by Brother Yi? Do you think that children don't have enough books for enlightenment? Did he feel that humans walk slowly and make wings? "
Li Chengqi felt that Brother Yi's opinion was somewhat unreasonable.
What do you think? What do you do? Resolve it?
The student blinked and said uncertainly, "Maybe?"
Li Chengqi didn't pay any more attention to the students. After asking a few people, he finally met Li Yi at the construction site.
Li Yi was squatting down and talking to the craftsman.
"Look at the picture. Make a bamboo basket with a large hole. This is the long handle, this is the handle, the handle is connected to the rope, and the last is the blade."
As Li Yi spoke, the blacksmith watched and listened attentively.
Li Chengqi, who had trotted over, swallowed his words and squatted down to watch.
The blacksmith pointed at the picture and said, "It's simple and easy to make. It's just that the blade is big and it consumes iron. "
"It's okay. The sickle is slow to harvest wheat. If you swing it, you can harvest a piece of wheat." Li Yi assured the blacksmith that there was iron.
"Brother Yi, can this thing harvest wheat?" Li Chengqi understood.
"Yes! It's faster than the sickle. "Li Yi gave an affirmative answer.
This thing was called the Divine Tool for Harvesting Wheat.
Li Chengqi: "…"
He didn't know what to say.
The child's voice was still coming from the other side. He wanted to ask about the books, but it turned out that there was another good thing in front of him.
How many things are in Brother Yi's head?
Thinking about this, Li Chengqi reached out and touched Li Yi's head.
Li Yi turned his head and looked at him with a puzzled expression. Why are you touching my head again?
Li Chengqi retracted his hand. "Brother Yi, listen."
Li Yi said, "I don't need to listen. I'll write the Three Character Classic. Take a copy when you leave."
"Can such a good thing be taught to outsiders?" Li Chengqi was puzzled.
In his opinion, whoever had this book must protect it. How could he give it to others so easily?
"There will be more in a few days. It's not difficult." Li Yi waved his hand indifferently.
Anyway, he didn't write it himself. He just copied it, changed it, and deleted it.
"There are more? Not difficult? "Li Chengqi raised his hand and touched his forehead to see if he had a fever.
"Yes. Since you're here, you can take one of the things for harvesting wheat with me."
Li Yi hadn't seen his cheap brother for a few days. He even wanted to ask someone to go to the Liuli Village to have a look.
He wanted to promote the Three Character Classic and new farming tools to increase his lifespan.
Li Chengqi stared fixedly at Li Yi, wondering how his Younger Brother Yi could be so calm.
He threw out all kinds of good things without any hesitation. How could he be so generous?
"Brother, why are you looking at me like that?" Li Yi was annoyed.
"What do you want?" Li Chengqi asked what was on his mind.
"Want? I don't want anything simple. There are many more. If you have a hundred storehouses full of grain, you won't give out a single porridge. If you have a lot of money, you won't give up a single coin. "
Li Yi explained the reason with a smile.
Li Chengqi: "…"
Am I being looked down upon? There are many more? Why can't I figure it out?
You have too many ideas. Do you find them too heavy in your head? Won't you be tired if you take them out?
"But …" Li Chengqi still wanted to say something.
"Dongzhu, people from Zhang Village are here. They are the village chief and two elders." Song De ran over.
He was covered in cement dust. He had just paved the playground with cement.
But he could let the children play and wait until the wheat was harvested to dry.
"I'll go and take a look." Li Yi stood up.
Song De ran away first. Li Yi walked less than a hundred meters away. Two eunuchs and two maids chased after him.
The four people in the palace clothes caught up with Li Yi and stood on his left and right. It was a grand scene.
As expected, the three people from the Zhang Family's manor were stunned.
Damn, why are they people from the palace?
Li Yi smiled and cupped his fists to salute. "Zhuangzi has been busy these days. I didn't pay you a visit in person but asked the village chief to come. Please forgive me."
"Li Dongzhu, you can't say that. Li Dongzhu has been here for many days. The people from the village should have been here long ago." Zhang Xiao returned the salute.
Then he introduced, "This is Seventh Uncle and Ninth Uncle."
Li Yi said to the two elders again, "Seventh Uncle and Ninth Uncle, you are healthy. I'm very happy."
The two elders returned the salute and regarded Li Yi as their junior.
Old Ninth, who was Ninth Uncle and Ninth Uncle, directly asked, "Just now, I heard the children reciting. Who taught them?"
"Thank you for asking, Ninth Uncle. It was taught by Yi. When Ninth Uncle returns to the village, bring a copy for me to correct." Li Yi modestly asked them to give him some pointers.
The three people were speechless.
Old Seventh and Old Ninth saluted again and bowed to the ground.
Li Yi returned the salute. This was tiring.
The eunuchs and maids also returned the salute. They stood up with their chests puffed out and their heads held high.
"Let's find a place to sit and talk about the matter of asking the villagers to look after the vineyard."
Li Yi didn't say anything. He had a lot of things to do later.
"Very good." Zhang Xiao agreed.
The group entered Li Yi's living room. The maids served tea and the eunuchs helped wipe the table.
The three of them felt a pressure as heavy as a mountain.
After living for so many years, this was the first time they were served by someone from the palace. When they returned, they would brag about it.
Half an hour later, the three of them happily left with the Three Character Classic.
The matter was settled. The village chief and the elders acted as guarantors.
Li Yi and Zhuangzi hired ten diligent people from Zhang Village to help take care of the vineyard. Each person was paid 30 coins a day and they were given a lunch.
The people from Zhang Village and Zhuangzi were very satisfied. The salary was not low.
The most important thing was that they were given a meal. They had heard that Li Yi and Zhuangzi were given meat to eat every meal.
The village chief and the two elders felt that they had gained face.
When we go to Li Yi and Zhuangzi, we will bring back good jobs for you. We will also bring back the Three Character Classic for your children.
There, we will be served by the eunuchs and maids.
If any of you dare to destroy or steal the grapes, we will break your legs.
Step over and break the leg, stretch out the arm and break it first.
Li Yi sent them to Zhuangzi. When he saw the three of them leave, he heaved a sigh of relief.
"It's settled. In the future, we don't have to worry about the people from Zhang Village stealing grapes." Li Yi said.
The eyes of the two maids were filled with stars. Dongzhu was so awesome.
Unfortunately, when the time came, they would be replaced.
When they returned to the palace, they wouldn't be as free as when they were in Zhuangzi.
