Chapter 252 Tao Wen Academy
"Wujiacun... College?" Seeing this name, Zhang Sheng and the others not only twitched their mouths, is this too straightforward?
"Why don't you change it?" Yang Yiqing also felt hot-eyed: "Change the name to something nicer!"
"Isn't this pretty good?" Wu Youwei felt that it was very characteristic of Wujiacun, especially the name, which was the college of Wujiacun.
"If you are an ethnologist, I won't say anything." Yang Yiqing said: "But you are an academy, so you have to have a good name. Look at Cuiwei Academy? Yueshan Academy? Bailudong Academy... , Does that name have a meaning? It also has a history, you are easy to make people think that only members of the Wu clan or relatives can come, are you good at school?"
"What do you want to call it?" Wu Youwei hesitated, he is a bad namer, and he had to rack his brains to name Xiao Mingde back then.
"You are surrounded by apricot trees, how about calling it Xinglin Academy?" Zhang Sheng suggested: "It also means 'Xingbang High School'."
"It feels like a place for teaching doctors..." Wu Youwei disagreed: "Besides, my next academy is a place for teaching doctors. The one called Xinglin Medical College is not bad."
"You still want to build a medical school?" Zhang Sheng felt that Wu Youwei was really good enough, one school was not enough, so two!
"Of course!" Wu Youwei said, "How can people not get sick if they eat whole grains? A good doctor will save many lives, but a quack doctor will cause endless harm!"
Originally, there were only a few doctors in ancient times, but with two quack doctors, will they survive?
The rest of the people also felt that this "Wujiacun Academy" was more like ethnology, so they all asked Wu Youwei to change the name.
"Since this is a place for teaching and learning..." Wu Youwei thought for a while: "Why don't we call it Tao Wen Academy!
Tao inscriptions are the earliest embryonic form of Chinese characters. In the prehistoric and early history of China, before the emergence of Chinese characters, the symbols most resembling characters were Tao inscriptions.
A lot of materials have been unearthed in pottery inscriptions, but unlike oracle bone inscriptions, they have only a single symbol.
I remember that later generations have studied it. It is said that from the Neolithic Age to the late Shang Dynasty, the Banpo Pottery Inscriptions are the earliest unearthed pottery inscriptions, from about 4800 to 4300 BC.
Definitely the earliest text!
"Is it related to pottery?" Pottery also has a place in this era, but isn't it an ordinary utensil?
"No, it's because in ancient times..." Wu Youwei had no choice but to tell them about the "Tao Wen".
The few people who listened were yearning for God: "This is suitable! It's so suitable!"
Zhang Sheng even wrote down the origin of the academy's name on a piece of paper, and asked Wu Youwei to find someone to build a stone tablet and place it at the gate of the academy.
Of course, Wu Youwei was happy to have the name of the future Zhuangyuan Pavilion elder.
Thus, Tao Wen Academy was officially named, and the invited gentlemen were all in place. Wu Youwei now has a partnership with someone to do business, so naturally he is not short of money.
The end of not being stingy about spending money is that when Tao Wen Academy opened, there were only a few students, but it was very airy.
Jiazi in March, avoiding Huguang's autumn grain.
Because Luo Lun has already implemented double-cropping rice, and now is trying three-crop rice, and the grain production has increased.
However, because of the increase in production, many dignitaries began to pay attention to the land in the south, so many people wanted to go to the south to set up one or two grain farms.
But now the land in the south is in short supply, and the dignitaries don’t want to spend more money to buy land, so they started to apply, wanting the court, or the emperor, to reward them with meritorious fields, which can be in the south, or even increase the number of meritorious fields How is that possible?
The meritorious land is rewarded to each family, what about the common people who have no land?
Besides, the emperor didn't have much land in his hand!
So at the time of Jiashen in March, Emperor Xianzong issued an order that powerful families at home and abroad should not ask for land without authorization.
All of them were rejected in one breath!
At this stall, North Korean envoys want to offer sea greens and white magpies.
Emperor Xianzong refused, only asking for things, and did not reward North Korea for envoys.
"Why did you refuse?" Wu Youwei and Li Dongyang had a dinner together in his overseas building. He treated guests to ordinary home-cooked dishes, but they tasted good.
Potato stewed pork ribs, tomato scrambled eggs, cornmeal pancakes, in Wu Youwei's memory, the old people said that they only ate this coarse grain when they were poor, but now they are made into fine noodles by Shang Ming's people and packed in beautiful Served on a porcelain plate, it was even named "Golden Cake"!
A whole grain is sold for the price of fine grain.
In addition, potatoes are really delicious, as well as fried sweet potato slices, steamed sweet potatoes and so on.
Listen to Li Dongyang, Liu Daxia, and Liu Jian talking about the affairs of the court.
In the past few years, Li Dongyang has become more and more famous. He is a master of both poetry and calligraphy, and now he has become a bachelor of servants.
Pin rank is from the fifth rank. This official position is mainly assigned to the cabinet or the Imperial Academy, under its jurisdiction there are books, edicts, etc.
Although the official position is low, but the Bachelor of Attendant can talk to the emperor directly. Occasionally, when the emperor wants to study, he will call for the Bachelor of Attendant to talk about poetry and songs with himself. In this regard, Li Dongyang is the most suitable.
Especially the drafting of imperial edicts, which is an honorable job for the emperor.
How else should I put it, Li Dongyang is a talented man, who faces the emperor day and night all day long, and the emperor who coaxes him every day is very happy.
After Liu Jian entered the Hanlin Academy, he studied behind closed doors, and declined the boring activities of his colleagues, such as making friends and meeting friends, and everyone called him "wood" behind his back.
Only a few people here know that he is familiar with the scriptures and has the ambition to help the people.
Now that he has been promoted to Hanlin Xiuzhuan, he must have a future.
Liu Daxia is familiar with military affairs, and Wu Youwei gives him some small ideas from time to time, and most of what he plays is in line with Emperor Xianzong's wishes, and he is regarded as the right-hand man by the current Minister of War.
In addition, he is young and aggressive, and he is favored by many people.
It's just that this is optimistic, and there is an accident that he will be released for a few years. If Jingcha is superior, he will have a higher official position and a broader future when he comes back.
The remaining three, Zhang Sheng, Yang Yiqing and Wu Youwei, are gearing up for next year's exam.
The three who passed the test also comforted them.
Wu Youwei, on the other hand, looked confident: "Exams, what are you afraid of? When I go back, I'll make a small room similar to the Gongyuan, and everyone will get to know each other in it first!"
People who have been educated by exams are not afraid of exams.
His idea made Zhang Sheng and Yang Yiqing's eyes shine.
"Wait, I have a new house in central Beijing, let's live in it after the autumn harvest!" Wu Youwei said: "It's the most suitable time for studying in winter."
Moreover, he will bring his nephew, Zhang Sheng will take his son, and the five of them will study together.
It's more fun.
After the meeting was over, it entered April, and Ding Ji was recorded as a prisoner.
Second, Chen Wen, Chen Anjian, who was supposed to die in April, is still alive and kicking as an errand in the court. Although he is already in his sixties, he is still very tough. He is the chief assistant of the cabinet and a veteran of the two dynasties. Shang Ren joined forces to control the cabinet, and Emperor Xianzong's life was much easier.
Because Shang Ming had good things to send to the palace, Emperor Xianzong had to rely on several experienced cabinet ministers to assist him, so he also sent a lot of things to the cabinet ministers, and the one who bore the brunt was Chen Wen and Chen Anjian, The daily dishes in Chen Ge's hometown are all delivered by the emperor's Huangzhuang. The fresh vegetables and dried vegetables are all from Huangzhuang, so that the more Chen Wen eats, the better he feels. Errands are even more diligent.
Wu Youwei didn't notice this, but he had already asked Wantong to build an identical room in the house next door to him, just like the Gong Yuan No. room, and it was all simulated inside, even the Gong bucket was placed inside.
Wantong found someone to build a No. [-] room, and Wu Youwei got rid of his filial piety at home.
After observing the filial piety for Mrs. Wu, Wu Youwei no longer has any elders who need to observe the filial piety. In addition to the filial piety, let everyone know that if Wu Youwei passes the exam in the future, he will "fly to the sky, and there will be absolutely no resistance." up.
After the removal of filial piety, Wu Youwei released the four nurses and told them to go back and tidy up and prepare to get married.
Four people, one for two days, brought Wantong to Moring Villa to propose marriage. After the marriage was settled, Wu Youwei went to Fahai Temple with the birthdays of the four sisters and brothers-in-law, and presented his manuscript The martial arts novel was given to Master Ji Kong, and he got the eight-character comment from the host master: more children, more blessings, more talents and longer life, harmonious husband and wife, the same effect as Fei.
Wu Youwei came back happily, with comments, and proudly announced: Starting from August, my family will marry a girl every month.
In August, Laba and Narcissus get married; in September, Feng Qi and Haitang; in October, Maliu and Chinese rose; in winter, Xiaosi and Ziwei.
As soon as he arranged the wedding date here, Fang Hongzhuo brought Wantong and the matchmaker there.
Wantong was used to his subordinates bringing him here to show off as soon as they asked for a marriage. Now he is the governor, and Fang Hongzhuo, who has tried hundreds of households, will become a serious one in a few days.
The marriage had been agreed a long time ago, and Wu Youwei was not pretentious, and had settled on this marriage, Fang Hongzhuo would have to call him "father-in-law" when they met in the future.
Although he is much younger, etiquette cannot be abandoned.
Wu Youwei is also embarrassed, how old is he?He became a "father-in-law" before the age of 30!
Fang Hongzhuo also blushed, how small is this "father-in-law"?I am older than him.
But this relationship is not based on age, but on seniority, so that Wantong looks at Fang Hongzhuo with kindness in his eyes... This kid will be his "son-in-law" from now on!
Then give him the seat of Qianhu!
After the marriage was settled, Wu Youwei explained all these to Butler Lin Su, and then carried Wu Mingde to Tao Wen Academy by himself.
Wu Mingde is three and a half years old this year, which is the age of enlightenment. There are also a few three- and four-year-old milk dolls around him. This enlightenment class has been established, and they don't need to learn any profound knowledge, as long as they can recite the Three Character Classic.
After the age of four, there are hundreds of surnames, and at the age of five, I started to learn the thousand-character prose.
When you are seven or eight years old, you can practice calligraphy;
Wu Youwei carried him to class. The elementary class was a separate class with three rooms, but now only one room is used, that is the "small class", how small is it?They are all little milk dolls who are not more than four years old.
The floor of the room is covered with thick cushions, the walls are covered with felt, and all the small tables are wrapped around the corners, filled with down, no matter how the children roll around, they will not hurt themselves.
Wu Youwei put the child in, patted his little butt: "Go!"
Xiao Mingde ran in briskly, and immediately rolled into a ball with a baby of about the same age.
After a while, Mr. came.
Mr. Zhang looked at the milk dolls crawling all over the room with big heads: "Sit down calmly, or I won't give you cakes for a while!
The lethality of this sentence is huge, even though they are all small milk dolls, they all understand it, no matter whether it is a male doll or a female doll, they all sit down.
"Come on, today we will learn the third paragraph of the Three Character Classic." Mr. Zhang took out his book, and wrote the six characters "If you don't teach, your sex will change" with white chalk on the blackboard specially made by Wu Youwei...
The little milk dolls can learn a little bit at a time, and they are also taught to know numbers in order to lay the foundation for future mathematics.
The curriculum of the small class is very simple, one class in the morning, one class in the afternoon, and a nap at noon just like the kindergarten.
Every day, I study Chinese in one period, and mathematics in one period, and then I leave school.
However, the success of teaching, no matter how young the children are, they can remember each one clearly.
Wu Youwei looked at the situation and nodded in satisfaction. His school should be like this.
