Chapter 961 Untitled

Shen Jie was stunned for a while when he looked at the shy and blushing Zhou Ziya. Fortunately, despite his nice appearance, he was actually a deep-minded person. After a while, his expression had already calmed down and became natural. Not to mention an old country man like the old man, even a rich man in the officialdom is not so easy to see the flaws.

"By the way, in addition to giving the new year's gift to the prince this time, I also responded to the prince's request and specially sent three people."

Shen said with a helpless expression, but in her heart she admired Situ Xu for not only caring about the future princess, but also caring about the future princess's family. It was so rare.

"Send three people?" The old man didn't understand.

"I have long heard that the grandsons of the old man's family are all extremely smart, and three of his grandsons have been elected at the same time at a very young age." He really admired the Zhou family, which has not had any problems for hundreds of years. I have never seen such a person before. The people born in the Zhou family this year are all really talented people. Could it be that this ancestor has manifested his spirit?

"Haha, Mr. Jie, please stop saying that, they are just some brats."

The old man looked cheerful. His grandson was his pride. No matter who mentioned it, he was always very proud and very happy.

"The old man doesn't know something. A scholar can do more than just study. The so-called gentleman naturally means etiquette, music, archery, imperialism, calligraphy, and mathematics. Although you can't say that you can master everything, you should at least know one or two things. , and also know a little bit about it. In this way, in the future, whether it is a classmate, friend or others, I will be able to use it." For example, the six arts of a gentleman, for someone like him, he has naturally started to learn them since he was a child, and he has them at home. The teacher taught me specially. If you don’t understand, you will probably make a fool of yourself and be laughed at. You won’t be able to find any truly close friends. You will seem out of place with others.

Zhou Ziya's eyes lit up, but no, this ancient scholar was not that easy to do.

Of course, she feels that compared with modern times, studying in modern times is more difficult than in ancient times. She still remembers when she took the college entrance examination. She was just entering the first grade of high school, and the teacher said that you can't waste time and time, and you will be a sophomore in high school soon. You have to lay a solid foundation. Then you will enter the second year of high school in a blink of an eye. Well, the teacher said it again. Next year will be the third year of high school. Time is tight. If you don’t study well, you won’t be able to keep up with the progress in the third year of high school, so you must not be lazy. Not to mention that when I reached the third year of high school, there was a number above my head almost every day. There were still XX days until the college entrance examination. I would dream about that terrible number every day when I went to bed.

The old man was confused. He couldn't understand many things at all. He was just an old man from the country who couldn't read a word. The only thing he knew was farming. He didn't dare to think about studying for the imperial examination before, and later he even applied for it. A holy attitude. As for what he really wants to learn, he has almost no idea at all.

"Ah, that's it." The old man turned to look at his granddaughter. He felt that her granddaughter knew more.

"Grandpa, there is no harm in learning more. Now that I have a teacher and some opportunities, I believe my brothers will cherish them." Zhou Ziya nodded and said.

Although she knew that this was a good deed done by Situ Xu, she might be happier if someone else had done it.
