There were a total of five tables in this spacious study. Teacher Sun's desk was at the front, and the other four were divided into two rows. The two Di daughters sat in the front row, and the two tables in the back row were naturally the third and fourth daughters.
Teacher Sun's stern face was very dignified. The young ladies did not dare to say anything more. They greeted Wanqiu and buried their heads in the books in their hands.
Wan Qiu quickly took out the Three Character Classic and started reading it seriously.
In her previous life, under the influence of Miss Chen, she hated reading.
The content of the " Three Character Classic " was not too profound, and it was also the first choice for women to start reading. Wan Qiu could barely recognize 70 - 80% of it. She made up her mind to study hard, so she started reading it seriously.
As Lu Wanling read, she stole a glance at Wanqiu. Seeing that Wanqiu was uncharacteristically serious and focused, she found it very refreshing. "Sister, don't you feel annoyed looking at all this?”
Wanqiu laughed secretly in her heart. Of course you want me to be impatient. "I won't."
In fact, there were some words on it that she did not recognize. And those that he knew, when put together, made him dizzy and sleepy. How laughable. You're the eldest daughter of the Lu family, but you can't even recognize the Three Character Classic. You really have to thank your good mother!
Lu Wanling refused to give up. She waved the book in her hand and winked."If you can understand it, please call the Headmaster to test it. If you pass, you can learn the Analects of Confucius and recite the Four Books and Five Classics with me…"
Before he could finish, he heard Master Sun, who was standing in front of him, cough.""Dare I ask if Eldest Miss and Second Miss are discussing?”
Lu Wanling wasn't nervous at all after being caught whispering. She giggled and said,""Teacher, I'm afraid that my sister has forgotten everything she has learned after being sick for so long. "I was just asking her if there was anything she didn't understand," he answered generously without blushing or panting.
Teacher Sun nodded approvingly,""Second Young Lady is so concerned about Eldest Young Lady.”
Ruoyun could not help but laugh. This Lu Wanling really could not be underestimated!
Teacher Chen continued slowly,""Before the New Year, I had already arranged for a checkup to be conducted after the class. Young Miss has just recovered from her serious illness, so there's no need to check today.”
Everyone knew Master Chen's temper. Although she was just a teacher, her strict and serious attitude made the old master appreciate her very much. If anyone dared to be late or leave early in her class, or if they were in a daze, they would definitely be criticized. Old Master said that Master Sun could directly punish the young ladies.
Teacher Sun asked Lu Wanling one by one. Lu Wanling and Lu Wanjing's answers satisfied the teacher. When it was Lu Wanning's turn, Teacher Sun's mood improved a lot, so his expression became gentler.'Wealth and nobility are what people want. If you don't get it in the right way, you can't live in it. People hate poverty and meanness. If you don't get it by the right way, you won't get it away. How can a gentleman become famous without benevolence? A gentleman should not violate benevolence and righteousness at the end of a meal. He must do so when he is in a hurry and must do so when he is in trouble.'Could Fourth Miss please explain the meaning of this sentence?”
Lu Wanning stood up awkwardly, swallowed, and stammered as she explained. " Uh, what this means is that wealth and nobility are human desires, not…uh, not…"
Teacher Sun didn't give any hints and just looked straight at her. Lu Wanning could only say that she didn't know how to.
Teacher Sun asked calmly,"You've had two months of vacation, and you don't know how to say a word?"”
Lu Wanning was no longer angry when faced with such a Master Sun. She blushed and did not dare to refute.
Teacher Sun said lightly," Fourth Miss is the youngest. I will give you another chance. Please memorize the Righteous Chapter of the Analects of Confucius."
Lu Wanning secretly complained in her heart. She braced herself and stuttered,""The Master said,'Benevolence is the most beautiful thing in the village. How can you know if you don't choose benevolence? Confucius said: ...
”
Master Sun's face darkened, and Lu Wanning lost her confidence. Teacher Sun frowned and bluntly criticized," Your explanation doesn't convey the meaning. It's simply nonsense! She could only write down one sentence in an article. What was in Fourth Miss 'mind?!”
Lu Wanning pursed her lips and her tears were about to fall. She looked very lovable.
Teacher Sun showed no signs of being soft-hearted. He asked Fourth Miss to return to her seat." Write down the entire Analects of Confucius ten times." I'll explain it to you again after I'm done copying it.”
Ten…ten times?
Lu Wanning was shocked and quickly squeezed out a cute smile to plead with the teacher." Teacher, ten times is too much. Can you do it a little less?”The Analects of Confucius was so long…It would take a few hundred words to copy it once. If she copied it ten times, her hand would break.
Teacher Sun glanced at Lu Wanning with a faint smile." Since Fourth Miss thinks it's too much, then change it to five times!" However, he had to memorize it. If he was still not familiar with it, he had to repeat it ten more times!”
Lu Wanning returned to the table dejectedly like a frosted eggplant. She spread out the paper and started copying with a bitter face.
Lu Wanjing stopped Teacher Chen and asked him about the book.
The rest of the time passed quietly as everyone focused on their studies.
Lu Wanling and Lu Wanjing had both learned the Four Books and Five Classics. It was obvious that Master Sun was very attentive in his teaching and was especially patient with them. This was especially true for Lu Wanling. Miss Chen had taught her the importance of reading and understanding since she was young. She had been enlightened since she was very young. Her foundation was better than Lu Wanjing's and she was hardworking. She was very popular with Master Sun.
After Master Sun explained a paragraph, he instructed Lu Wanling and Lu Wanjing to read and understand. If they didn't understand, they could ask questions.
Then, Teacher Sun wandered to Wan Qiu's side.
Wan Qiu looked calm and composed on the surface, but she was very nervous on the inside. She was afraid that the father and son would suddenly test her.
Teacher Sun looked at Wan Qiu and asked gently,""Young miss has delayed her homework for so long. If there's anything you don't know, ask more, understand?”
Wan Qiu's heart that was in her throat finally settled back into her chest and she nodded vigorously. Then, he smiled bitterly. His eighteen-year-old soul had been reborn, but he was afraid of a mere teacher.
Teacher Sun flipped open the book in her hand and read one of them in a cadence. Then, he began to explain it to Wan Qiu.
Wanqiu pricked up her ears and tried to remember what Master Sun said. He didn't even dare to blink his eyes, afraid that he would miss a word.
Of course, most of them didn't quite understand. He could only swallow it first and slowly ponder over it after class.
It seemed that he had to spend some effort to read and write in the future!
