It seems that he also realized that this confusing question was a little difficult for the six-year-old Yunjing. After he shook his head, Li Qiu said with a smile: "This place has been bought by the teacher, and it will be our home for a long time in the future."
Where you live, maybe three to five years, maybe seven to eight years, the time is uncertain, it mainly depends on your study progress!"
Hearing what he said, Yunjing looked at him in astonishment, thinking to himself, what kind of operation is this?
He thought this was Master's previous home, and then Master would warn him about how difficult life was, but it turned out that this place was bought by him...
The purpose is just to let myself study here, but what can I learn in such an environment? Learn to endure hardship and stand hard work?
Seeing Yun Jing's confused look, Li Qiu didn't give in and said: "Jing'er, my teacher's arrangements for your next study are mainly divided into two aspects. The first is book knowledge. I will not take the initiative to teach or interfere.
What are you talking about? You need to go to the school in the town to study with other children of the same age in a few days. Every year, the school in the town opens a Mentoring class. The number of students ranges from a dozen to dozens. It is not deliberately arranged for you. When you arrive,
When I go there to study, even though I am the mountain leader, I will not treat you specially, I will treat you equally, and I will even be stricter with you!"
After a slight pause, under Yun Jing's doubtful gaze, he continued: "The reason for this arrangement has two purposes. First, learning is not done behind closed doors. It needs someone to discuss it together and compare it with others before you can understand what you are learning."
How much have you learned, and to what extent. Moreover, studying with other people can also exercise your communication skills and learn how to get along with others. The second purpose is because I am worried about you as a teacher..."
Are you worried about yourself? What are you worried about?
Yunjing expressed that he didn't understand, and he didn't ask. The master would naturally tell him the answer.
Sure enough, Li Qiu saw that Yun Jing was a little complicated. He was very happy, but also worried, and said: "Jing'er, I know that you have a good memory. This can be seen from the day I asked you to recite it. If I guessed well,
, I’m afraid you can remember a lot of things at a glance, right? You can’t even forget that kind of thing, right?”
"Yes," Yunjing nodded and admitted calmly. This was not a shameful thing.
Nodding, Li Qiu said with a genuine expression: "You are gifted with photographic memory. It is unique. This is your advantage, but it is also your disadvantage. It is undeniable that you have photographic memory."
, will make you even more powerful in learning, and you will soon be able to leave behind your classmates who entered school at the same age. This is a good thing. It is a talent that no one else can ask for. But just because this talent is so good, you can be a teacher.
Worrying about you is also your disadvantage. You have a good memory and can learn faster than others, which can easily breed pride. At the same time, because you can remember the content of the study over and over again, you will have the idea that I will remember it after just one try.
, thus becoming tired of learning and not studying in depth, thus only learning some superficial things. It should be noted that learning, even a single word, will evolve into multiple meanings if it is studied in depth and extended in different places.
Come on, there is no end to learning. If you don’t study in depth because you have memorized it once, and want to learn other things, you will not learn the real thing, you will only be superficial, and you will waste this God-given talent!”
"So, my teacher said that I will not take the initiative to teach you the knowledge in books, but let you go to school and learn slowly. This is to prevent you from being too impetuous because of your talent. You will learn what others learn. If you learn quickly, you will also learn.
You will have more time to study the things you have learned in depth, so as not to bury your talents. That is what a teacher wants to see, rather than simply wanting you to learn without being masterful. Do you understand?"
Perhaps because I was too young, Master took care of my ability to understand, so I explained it bit by bit to myself.
To be fair, after hearing these words, Yun Jing's scalp felt numb and a trace of cold sweat broke out on his forehead. Before Li Qiu said these words, he was also complacent because of his ability to have photographic memory.
Even if you have this ability, if you don't learn anything very quickly, I'm afraid you'll be able to "empty out" your master in a short time.
However, after saying these words, Yunjing realized that he was proud, and to put it bluntly, he was a little too arrogant. As his master Li Qiu said, with such an idea, what he learned could only be superficial!
Literacy is very easy for me, but after I can read, do I really understand the meaning of the words? It should be noted that the world is very big and completely unfamiliar to me. The meaning of some words in different places cannot be determined based on my own experience.
Understand, so you need to study and understand deeply in order to learn the real knowledge of this world!
His words awakened Yun Jingying, and he put away his pride and obeyed his master's instructions. He no longer thought about how to learn faster and more, but to learn deeply and deeply.
Too fast is not a good thing...
Before this, Yunjing had never thought that the talent of photographic memory could actually hide so many hidden dangers. His master really had good intentions.
If it were another person, after learning about his talent, he would probably laugh three times, and then wish he could pass on all the knowledge to himself and then go out and show off, instead of really thinking about himself.
"Disciple, I understand." Yun Jing nodded seriously.
With a satisfied smile, Li Qiu said: "That's good. Maybe you don't understand my teacher's arrangements now and think it will bury your talent. In the future, you will know how much benefit my teacher's doing this will bring to you. Well, although my teacher's arrangements are
I won’t teach you the knowledge in books but let you learn with others. But if you don’t understand anything, just come and ask me.”
Yunjing transformed into a repeater and nodded again: "Disciple understands."
Then Li Qiu continued: "Let's talk about another aspect of teaching you. This is also the main reason why I brought you here and said that you will live for a long time."
"Book knowledge can be learned in school. If you have talent, you can ask me if you don't understand. My teacher can also motivate you, so you can rest assured in this aspect. Here, my teacher has to teach you things other than books.
Something!”
"You may be thinking, isn't it just reading that makes people read? What can you learn here?"
"But I want to tell you that the knowledge in books is easy to learn, but things outside books are more difficult to learn, and things outside books are even more important than what is in books!"
Yunjing listened carefully and did not interrupt.
Li Qiu thought to himself: "This house is very shabby, right? The home is so nice, why do you come to this shabby place? This is what I want to teach you as a teacher."
"From now on, we live here. I have only prepared rations for us for half a month. We have to cook and eat by ourselves. We have to find ways to earn the next rations. We have to find ways to repair the houses and improve the living environment. We have to
Farming..."
"Maybe you will think, you are from a farmer's family, why do you still come here to suffer? This is where you will learn in the future, how to earn your own food in such a situation of nothing. If you learn, where will you be in the future?
Even if you are alone, you will not starve to death. You know how to repair a house. Even if you are thrown into the wilderness, you can build a place to live. Farming is to let you understand the suffering of the people and how food comes from..."
"On a small scale, this is related to the livelihood of our master and apprentice. On a larger scale, it is to let you understand the sufferings of the people. Most of us scholars who want to obtain fame in the future will become officials. If we are officials, if we don't even have these
If you don’t understand basic things, how can you benefit the people? Even if you are not an official, understanding these basic things can help your own knowledge."
"Knowledge, in fact, is not something too highbrow. What is knowledge? It is the experience in daily life, the life insights after personal experience. This is knowledge. Knowledge that is too divorced from reality is just a castle in the air. That's all.
Study, and after learning, you can only talk about it, and that is not what a teacher wants to see."
"Do you think these things in life can be found in books? Even if they are in books, how can they be as profound as experiencing them in person?"
"So, these are what I want to teach you as a teacher!"
"In farming, you have to understand the hard work of the grassroots and the hard-earned food. Repair the house and gradually make it what you want. This can cultivate your sentiment and earn your own food when you have nothing.
I want you to learn the tenacity to never give up at any time..."
"When you learn these things, you will know that living in this world is not that difficult!"
"However, what I want to tell you is that after you have learned all these, it will be the beginning of my real teaching. At that time, my teacher will personally take you around to see the suffering of the people with your own eyes and experience it firsthand.
Questions will arise to make you think about what you should do when you face those situations. I will also take you to do business, let you learn how to trade, and let you understand the intrigues between people. I will take you to visit
Relatives and friends, learn how to treat others. I will also take you to experience dangers and train you on what to do when facing a crisis. Let you see what a bad person is and how bad they can be, and let you understand that the world is not so beautiful.
…”
"These are things that my teacher will take you to experience in the future. Think about it now, are these things that my teacher said can be learned from the book?"
After speaking, Li Qiu looked at Yun Jing with a smile.
Yunjing was a little confused. Only now did he realize how much he had to learn.
The so-called apprenticeship means that what you need to learn is not just reading and literacy. The main thing you need to learn is how to behave and do things, how to settle down and live your life. It is to truly understand the world, not just to read books.
What is a mentor?
This is the mentor!
Looking at the confused Yun Jing, Li Qiu said with a smile: "Are you a little frightened by my teacher's words? Haha, don't think too much, just take your time, my teacher will arrange it for you, you just have to worry about it
Learn from your teacher, and your teacher will not put excessive pressure on you. You must know that haste makes waste."
"Disciple, follow the master's arrangements," Yun Jing said with a slight sigh of relief.
Nodding, Li Qiu said with a smile: "Okay, let's bring the topic back to the present. Next, let's clean up the house first. After all, we will live here from today on. The rest will take our time, and then the master will
What I’m telling you is that I don’t mean to let you ‘study’ here to make you endure hardships. I just want you to learn how to be a human being from the most difficult environment. When you are not here, it is necessary to enjoy life properly.
As for the balance between work and rest, you must know that blindly enduring hardship will only lead you to the other extreme."
After listening to the master's arrangements, Yun Jing thought to himself, how many responsible teachers can there be in the world, even considering the physical and mental aspects?
Then he asked: "Master, are there any holidays?"
"Of course, I will give you three days off as a teacher every month. You can go to my house to play, or you can go home to see your family," Li Qiu said with a smile...
