Chapter 31 My Teaching Is Not Free
"What else can I write? It's just bragging and scaring people!" Tang Zheng sat in the winery with a smile next to the official road outside the city. Today he deliberately dressed as a teacher, but his face was not as rigorous as a teacher.
There was a person sitting next to him, the little lord holding his chin with both hands. The girl's eyes flashed brightly, and she said curiously: "You guessed that she would forbid you to engrave the monument, so the next two articles deliberately scared her?"
After saying that, before Tang Zheng answered, he cheered and raised his fist, and said happily: "Xiao Wu did a good job, worthy of being my friend. In the future, we will form an offensive and defensive alliance, and then unanimously resist power from the outside. As long as she doesn't allow her to do something, we will do it together. Hehe, it will be satisfying to think about it. You bad guy, help me to anger her to death..."
"I'm so angry?" Tang Zheng smiled bitterly and said speechlessly: "I'm afraid my neck is not hard enough!"
The little lord was furious and said angrily: "You are so ambitious to write poetry, why did you shrink when you say it? Tang Xiaowu, I ask you, are you still a man?"
Tang Zheng snorted and said disdainfully: "I am a man or not, it's all your business. I have to rush to prove my innocence because of your doubts. Why do you want to take off your pants and show you?"
The little lord was stunned for a moment, then looked at Tang Zheng's crotch with contempt. The girl suddenly blushed and laughed: "I'm not afraid of taking it off, your hair is not growing all..."
Tang Zheng was shocked and pretended to be panicked: "Have you seen it? You bad woman!"
"Bah!" the little lord spat, his face flushed and said, "Who will look at you... Look at you, it's ugly too. Oh, you're so necrotic. I'm going to go to the fat aunt to sue you. If you're necrotic, you'll bully people."
"Hehehe!"
Tang Zheng let out a strange smile from a mature man.
The girl's face was tender, and the little lord couldn't bear to tease him like this. The girl used the excuse to ask someone to complain, so she stood up and ran away in a hurry. She didn't have much time to hear a chirping sound behind her, and then she heard the fat aunt comforting her with a purpose.
At this time, someone suddenly coughed at the door, and saw several people in Tangjiazhuang squeezing in with a smile. The leader said in an exaggerated tone and shouted at the top of his voice: "Xiaowu Xiaowu, it's amazing. Our restaurant was surrounded by people. I'm afraid that more than a dozen villages are bringing children..."
"Oh? How many children are there?" Tang Zheng was very concerned about this and couldn't help but stand up from the chair.
The people seemed to be very rigorous in their work. When they heard the inquiry, they quickly calculated with their fingers for a long time. But after a long time, they had no explanation. Suddenly, they smirked and grinned, "A lot!"
Tang Zheng almost spit out a mouthful of old blood. Can this be considered an answer? If you don’t know the numbers, you would say it earlier. Why do you have to give us the illusion of silent calculations...
But he knew that there was something that the people said was not wrong. There were definitely many children outside the restaurant. It was difficult to be able to eat enough in this era. How could children from poor families have the opportunity to read?
Not only does he teach people to study for free, but he also gives children a free meal of meat. Don’t blame someone for saying that he is a prodigal son, because he has never heard of such a thing throughout history.
Since ancient times, children have to worship their disciples first. This bunch of celery is usually six kinds of gifts, namely a bundle of celery, two holders of lotus seeds, three kilograms of red beans, four kilograms of red dates, five kilograms of longan, and finally ten pieces of jerky meat.
Celery refers to diligence, which means diligence and learning.
The hard heart of lotus seeds means painstaking education.
Red beans mean good luck, red dates mean early high school, longan means perfect merits, and the last ten pieces of jerky meat are real tuition fees.
These six gifts are slightly different due to the different properties in the north and south, but no matter whether in the south or north, they always have to collect six gifts. It feels no big deal in later generations, but in ancient times, it could block 99% of scholars.
There are only ten pieces of jerky meat that no one can afford to be poor people.
However, now, some people don’t want to be a disciple. Not only do they not want to be a disciple, but they also have to take care of their children. Not only do they want to take care of their full meals, but they also have to take care of their meat...
There is no such good thing in the world? Who doesn’t come to be a fool?
...
After a while, Tang Zheng asked someone to open the door of the restaurant. The people outside were already anxious to wait. When they saw the door open, they immediately rushed in.
Most of the people who come here are men holding their children in their hands. Because they all want to squeeze forward, many people almost started to fight. Although they usually look down and see each other, everyone is for the children at this moment.
If you can squeeze into the front, maybe you can learn more when you are studying. Parents are selfish and no one is willing to be humble in this matter.
Tang Zheng smiled without stopping, but just watched everyone fight silently. He had already sat in the side hall of the restaurant, and this would be a school for children to study in the future.
Not long after, the crowded people finally decided on the outcome. A group of people suddenly became silent, and each led the children to come over carefully.
When outside the restaurant, many people mocked Tang Zheng as a prodigal son, but when they arrived at the entrance of the school, all of these people were filled with awe.
"This young man Tang Xiaowu will be our child's teacher in the future..."
People have the same heart and all have this thought, so the people become more respectful and suddenly feel at a loss when they stand in front of the side hall.
Tang Zheng was obviously just a thin boy, but at this moment it was indescribable to everyone's eyes.
"This young man teaches children for free!"
So respect changed again, and many people became afraid involuntarily. Every commoner smiled desperately, and then carefully pushed their children forward.
Tang Zheng sat alone at a table, catching all the reactions of the people. He paid special attention to the people's clothes and found that many people were in rags.
"Since you're here, let the child sit in!"
Tang Zheng finally spoke slowly, then slowly pointed to the side hall of the wine shop and said lightly: "From now on, this is the school, and it is also the children's second home. Since ancient times, teachers are like fathers, and I will teach every child carefully..."
"That's that's it!" The people responded quickly.
Someone wanted to praise a few words, but he was really not good at speaking. After holding it in for a long time, he only said one sentence, saying honestly: "Tang Xiaowu... Uh, Mr. Tang, you are a great person..."
A good person may be the most flattering thing the people can think of. Tang Zheng smiled and nodded at the people.
The people were immediately very satisfied, as if they had great glory. In the blink of an eye, Lao Gao stood up and plucked up the courage to help the school maintain order.
"That, is it from Liujiazhuang? Take care of your child, don't wipe your nose on the pillar! And that, you seem to be from Sunjiazhuang. Your child is too young, so you can let him sit forward..."
The people gradually became relaxed, and they organized several neighbors to maintain order. Gradually, the entire school became orderly and even more regular than someone forced them.
Tang Zheng did not stop him from beginning to end, allowing these people to maintain order independently. Until all the children had found a seat, he slowly spoke again: "Learning is as deep as the sea, and the way of heaven, earth and universe are the way of the world and human ethics are the most precious thing, which can change your future, so my teaching is not free..."
"What? Not free?" The people were immediately exploded.
"But, I don't want your apprenticeship!" Tang Zheng smiled slightly and continued to speak leisurely.
Some people's faces changed and entangled, and finally couldn't help asking, and said carefully: "Do you want money?" When they asked this, they were already giving up.
Tang Zheng looked at him and smiled again, "I don't want money either!"
The people present were stunned and looked at each other. The man just now took a step forward and asked again, "I don't want money or politeness. I wonder what Mr. Tang wants?"
"Yes, what exactly does he want?"
Behind the restaurant, the little lord lay curiously at the door and looked here, but the fat aunt next to her kept looking at her. The more she looked at her, the more satisfied she was with the girl.
At this time, an old scholar and a woman were also raising her feet into the door at the restaurant. When she heard Tang Zheng's words, the old scholar and the woman were stunned at the same time.
"He doesn't teach for free, so why don't he have money?"
