In winter, Yun Jing's days at Master's house were not boring. Master's wife was very kind to him, treating him as if he were her own offspring. She cooked delicious food for him in every possible way, and even stitched it with her own hands.
He sewed two clothes for Yunjing.
Master Li Qiu's children have not been able to come back from other places. Yunjing's arrival can be regarded as making up for the regret that their children are not around, and they can also enjoy the happiness of family.
Because there was no need for classes, Yunjing could spare a lot of time after practicing calligraphy every day, so Li Qiu began to teach Yunjing how to play chess to pass the boring time.
Chess is Go, a game played between black and white.
To be honest, Yunjing was not an elegant person in his previous life. He had never been exposed to things like Go, and he didn't even understand the basic rules.
Fortunately, Li Qiu taught patiently and Yunjing studied hard. Within a few days, Yunjing was able to perform well.
Go is not about learning. As long as you understand the rules, you can easily play against others.
It's just a simple game. It's still difficult to master something like Go. Li Qiu's chess skills are very high. He must be as tall as two or three floors. Anyway, Yunjing has never won once. Even so, every time
The next time his master Li Qiu talked about it, he still enjoyed it.
It's not that Yunjing has a masochistic tendency, it's just that there is too little entertainment here, and there is nothing better to pass the time than a slow game of chess.
But after all, he has a photographic memory and can multi-task. As for his chess skills, he has grown day by day under Li Qiu's "torture".
As for how long it will take for him to reach the height of his master or even surpass him, Yunjing doesn't know. Anyway, it's just for fun. He doesn't have much desire to win. On the contrary, with this mentality, his chess skills have improved very quickly...
In addition to practicing calligraphy and playing chess, Li Qiu sometimes takes Yunjing to visit relatives and friends, only in Niujiao Town and its surrounding areas.
When visiting relatives and friends, Yunjing was just a companion and spectator. After all, he got to know many elders every time he came there.
Then, Li Qiu would occasionally take Yunjing to a teahouse to listen to music and books, learn about some strange things, and broaden his horizons a lot.
People, most of the days are so dull and fulfilling, without so much fighting and killing.
Such ordinary days always make people feel that time passes very slowly, but after time passes, people clearly feel that the days passed very slowly, but they did not leave a few deep memories.
Winter is cruel after all.
Every time Yun Jing went out with his master Li Qiu, he would hear about many human tragedies. Beggars froze to death, people who went to roofs to clear snow fell to death, and houses were crushed...
…
Similar things happen every day even in Niujiao Town, and it can even be said that there are casualties every day!
Some people may think that if there are casualties every day, if this continues, sooner or later everyone will die.
How is that possible? Deaths happen every day, but on the other hand, when entertainment activities are scarce, there are also many babies being born. After all, a delicate balance is maintained between life and death, and even new births.
It is higher than death. After all, humans are intelligent creatures and will try their best to use everything around them to protect themselves. Most deaths are attributed to 'accidents'...
It's 'ridiculous' to say that when he first came to this world, Yun Jing would feel emotional when he heard the tragedy happened, but now that he has seen and heard it more, he seems to have gotten used to it.
Is his heart numb? No, it's because he has nothing to do. What can he do?
Time passes day by day, the cruel winter slips away quietly, the snow is slowly thinning, and spring is coming.
There have been too many painful events in winter that people don't want to remember, but with the arrival of spring, life for the living still has to go on. They can only 'forget' the pain and welcome the new year...
After the beginning of spring, Yunjing turned seven years old and began his seventh year in this world.
When the snow melted, Yunjing returned home immediately.
The family is very good, there are no accidents, and Yun Dong is a little more "sensible" than last year. Yun Jingxin said that at some point this year, the grazing work of the big buffalo at home will probably fall on his head.
I started herding cattle when I was just as young as Yundong, and I didn't know if my stupid younger brother was qualified for this job.
Yunxi, who was a few months old, was well protected by her family and grew up slowly without any illness or disaster. When Yunjing returned, she would occasionally speak vaguely incomprehensible baby talk.
Xiao Yunxi and Yundong were very similar when they were young. They both liked to cling to Yunjing, her brother, even though she had never seen Yunjing many times since she was born.
For Yunjing's return, after not seeing him for a winter, the family was naturally happy in every possible way, but this happiness did not last for two days before it became dull. The reality is like this, we miss you when we can't see you, but you are always there.
There are so many emotions bursting out right now.
Yunjing didn't stay at home for long, only four or five days. His family had to be busy with the livelihood of the new year, and he also had to start a new semester of study.
When he returned to town, Li Qiu took him back to the house where they lived last year. After one winter, the house lost a lot of its vitality, but their return made the place regain its 'vitality'.
On the second day after returning here, Li Qiu started his own unique teaching method. He still did not directly teach Yunjing knowledge, but took Yunjing to start farming.
The land that their master and apprentice had plowed last year was put to use. They needed to farm it with their own hands to manage the growth of food. However, farming could only be done during Yunjing's normal school hours, that is, in the morning and evening every day.
It stands to reason that Yunjing has to go to school most of the time every day, and he is not busy with things in the land. But who knows that Li Qiu is a martial arts master?
It's not much, but it can barely be cultivated.
According to Li Qiu, they should be able to eat the food they grow this year.
To be honest, Yunjing used to help with some farm work at home, but there was no such complete process of fully participating in plowing the ground, sowing seeds, and watching the seedlings grow little by little. This made him feel an inexplicable feeling in his heart.
It feels like something is gestating and waiting to sprout and grow until it bears fruit.
The feeling was inexplicable. Although it was full of unknown expectations, Yun Jing was not too entangled and still let nature take its course...
The new semester officially started on the third day after Yunjing and Li Qiu started farming. At this time, because of the learning basis from last year, their courses have changed.
Etiquette classes are still fixed once a day, and are taught by teacher Yang Yungong and Yunjing and the others. In addition, their literacy classes have been reduced from three classes a day to two classes, and they have added a new class to the remaining class.
Arithmetic class.
Yunjing probably guessed that as they progressed in their studies, there would be fewer and fewer literacy classes until there were no more, and they would be replaced by other more profound subjects.
In the new semester, in addition to changes in coursework, Yang Yungong, a teacher, announced something relatively important to Yunjing and the others.
That is, after studying and getting along with each other last year, this class needs to elect a ‘leader’, which when translated into Yunjing’s ‘home’ means probably the squad leader.
Once you become the leader of the class, you have certain rights, and of course, you also have to assume some obligations.
The so-called rights are really not small for the people in the class. When the teacher is not around, he has the right to restrain the students in the class, and even has the right to punish those students who have done something wrong if it is reasonable and reasonable.
It has to be said that the power is not small, but in other words, it is also an offending job.
However, not everyone can take on this offending job. First of all, your academic performance must be able to convince others. Leading students, as the name suggests, means leading the way. How can you set an example if your own performance is not good?
Secondly, you need a certain popularity and prestige, otherwise who will obey your control? Without this, even if you become a leader, it will only become a joke and you will be "emptied out", which will be very embarrassing.
'Rights' and obligations are mutual. When you become a leader and gain certain rights, you also have to assume obligations. You need to supervise the students' learning and discipline and even etiquette and atmosphere. If someone in the class makes a mistake that will make the entire class
The shameful thing is that as a leader, you fail to supervise things properly and you will have to bear certain responsibilities depending on the situation.
Logically speaking, being the leader is a thankless job. However, after Yang Yungong made the announcement, the twenty students in the entire class became excited, and they all wanted to become the leader of the class.
Why are people so enthusiastic and even eager to get something that is obviously thankless? That's because becoming a leader will have an enviable benefit.
After all, a leading scholar, large or small, can be considered an 'official'. Once you become a leading scholar, it will be recorded on the student record, and it will also be filed with the government. Once you do well, you will become an official in the future imperial examinations.
bonus!
Of course, the proportion of this bonus item is negligible.
In this case, who doesn’t want to become a leading scholar? The imperial examination is basically a single-plank bridge with thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge. Being a leading scholar gives you more opportunities to gain fame than others. Who doesn’t want to fight for it?
Yunjing was moved and didn't want to give up this opportunity.
Everyone wants to be a leading scholar, so who should you choose?
Yang Yungong did not conduct any complicated assessments, but asked everyone to recommend themselves. As long as he could convince the public, he could become the leader of the class.
At Yunjing's age, when everyone is working extremely hard, their knowledge is actually about the same. Even if they are better than others, it is 'limited'. The knowledge they have mastered now alone cannot give them the decisive advantage to become a leader.
of.
After some self-recommendations and recommendations, Yang Yungong, as a teacher, considered all aspects and finally decided on two candidates, and selected the best among the two to appoint the tutor.
