Chapter 221 A person who is admired
Jiang Jiawang looked at Jiang Youzhen with admiration, his eyes full of little stars. His sixteenth uncle was really amazing.
Uncle Sixteen has just started learning, but he has memorized the entire book. My great-grandfather scolded him yesterday for being a blockhead. He has been studying for almost two months, but he has not yet finished learning the Analects.
He felt a little discouraged when he thought about how smart his uncle was and how slow he was at learning. He now studied late into the night just to keep up with his uncle.
But only after working hard, he finally understood what his great-grandfather meant. Talent is really important. Studying is like this, 70% depends on talent and 30% depends on hard work. Especially for someone like Uncle Sixteen who is both talented and hardworking, he can't catch up even if he tries hard.
"You! You really memorized it all." Master Jiang was a little incoherent. He had never seen such a genius.
Even Wen Ruyu didn't learn so fast when she first entered school. In just two or three days, Jiang Youzhen had memorized half of the book.
"Master, what are we going to learn next?" Jiang Youzhen just smiled. Is this shocking? There is more to come!
"Study Mencius!" Master Jiang finally understood Jiang Heng's persistence in Jiang Youzhen's study. If there was such a talented person in his family, he would force him to study in his private school even if it meant forcing him to do so.
I heard that this kid didn't want to study before and only wanted to make money. Isn't this nonsense? Master Jiang secretly made up his mind that he must make Jiang Youzhen change his mind.
"Let's read the first chapter first, and then copy the notes."
"Teacher, I have copied the notes, and I have learned the first three articles by myself. I can recite and write them, and I have memorized the notes as well."
Jiang Youzhen was still being conservative. In fact, after she finished copying it, she read it again from beginning to end and memorized it firmly in her mind.
"What?" Mr. Jiang's eyes widened and even his beard stood up.
After a while, he said, "Then let me test you. Memorize all three passages first."
"Yes!"
From then on, the only sound in the entire library was Jiang Youzhen's reciting. The boy's young voice was full of calmness and composure.
Wen Ruyu looked at Jiang Youzhen's calm and beautiful profile and couldn't help but feel a little dumbfounded. After Jiang Youzhen finished reciting, he suddenly laughed at himself, thinking that he really didn't deserve the title of a child prodigy.
When Master Jiang heard Jiang Youzhen finish reciting, he still couldn't believe it. "Recite the interpretations of the three articles, and recite the remaining words and phrases by random."
The spring scenery outside the window was beautiful, but all the students in the study had no intention of appreciating it. Even Huang Xue Ning, who was drowsy after waking up early, looked at Jiang Youzhen with his chin in his hand, his eyes full of admiration.
"This kid is really amazing! I really have to admire him. How can there be such a smart person in this world?"
Thinking of this, he secretly hated himself again, why didn't he have such a smart brain? Thinking of his father who always disliked his stupidity and asked him to make friends with smart people, Huang Xue Ning suddenly ignited his fighting spirit.
His father once said that when people live in this world, they cannot avoid worldly relationships. If you don't make friends with people when they are weak, and then approach them when they are successful, they will not look down on you at all.
Although he admired Wen Ruyu very much, he also had a positive attitude towards her career. He was not stupid, he felt that with Wen Ruyu's qualities, she would definitely rise to prominence in the future.
And now, he discovered a more powerful existence, Jiang Youzhen. Unlike Wen Ruyu who had not yet become a powerful figure, Jiang Youzhen now had the momentum to command the world.
Not only him, but all the students in the library looked up to Jiang Youzhen. At this moment, Jiang Youzhen shocked everyone. No matter when, she was the most dazzling existence.
Huang Xue Ning glanced at Wen Ruyu, and saw that Wen Ruyu's eyes were full of fighting spirit when she looked at Jiang Youzhen, and there was also a hint of admiration that he himself did not notice.
No matter who you are, you will be impressed by Jiang Youzhen's powerful charm, right? Just like his father said, some people, no matter where they are, no matter who they are with, you can only see them.
But when Huang Xue Ning thought of Jiang Youzhen's rude attitude towards him, he suddenly felt bad.
When Master Jiang finished reciting the annotations word by word, he immediately said excitedly: "Great, great, great!"
"Have you finished copying? I looked at the previous ones, and there are no mistakes in the annotations. Did you copy Wen Ruyu's annotations? Your Senior Brother Wen has made some achievements in the imperial examinations. You can ask your Senior Brother Wen for advice in the future. You can also come to me if you have any questions."
"I would also like to thank Senior Brother Wen for his guidance. I have been bothering you all the time, but Senior Brother Wen never tires of it. He is always caring towards you and your fellow students."
I'm still borrowing books from others! She doesn't mind saying a few nice words.
"No, it's you who is smart, I just lent you the book to copy the notes." Wen Ruyu really didn't teach anything and didn't dare to take credit for it.
Master Jiang was very happy to see his fellow apprentices getting along harmoniously and helping each other. He knew Wen Ruyu, who was extremely talented, but a little arrogant.
Unexpectedly, Wen Ruyu and Jiang Youzhen got along well. When they both entered officialdom in the future, with the friendship between them as master and apprentice, they also had connections in the officialdom.
"Okay! You brothers should stop being modest to each other." Master Jiang hesitated for a moment and finally asked the question in his mind.
"You really haven't read the Four Books and Five Classics before? Then how do you know these words?"
Jiang Youzhen pursed his lips and smiled, "Students will write down the words they don't know, and then ask others to remember them."
Mr. Jiang was very satisfied, "Great! That's the kind of ambition we should have."
He was very satisfied with this student, but at the same time, he felt that he had nothing to teach her. At present, it seems that Jiang Youzhen can completely teach herself, leaving him no place to use his skills.
However, Jiang Youzhen was different from other students. It was more appropriate for him to let him do whatever he wanted. After he finished learning the Four Books and Five Classics, he would teach him how to write essays.
The teacher was not very happy and did not assign any special homework. He just said that he would check on Jiang Youzhen's progress every five days.
In fact, Jiang Youzhen just copied and memorized one book at a time, without any pressure at all. She thought about it and decided to copy the annotations of the Four Books and Five Classics first, then memorize them all, and then go to the bookstore to find other books to read and enrich her knowledge.
In fact, she didn't realize that she, who was originally reluctant to go to school, is now very interested in studying and is completely immersed in it.
Jiang Youzhen spent two hours before lunch transcribing and annotating. Wen Ruyu was indeed a top student. His notes were detailed and accurate, and he also had his own unique insights.
To be honest, Jiang Youzhen got the upper hand. In ancient times, if you didn't have a very good relationship, you wouldn't usually borrow this kind of notebook from a top student. This is another kind of teaching and imparting knowledge, which is usually a gift from elders to close juniors, or a gift from a mentor.
Based on this point alone, it is not excessive for Jiang Youzhen to treat him to a meal, and he should even give him a generous gift as a thank you.
Jiang Youzhen was still not satisfied until the bell rang. But she quickly packed up her bookcase and looked at Wen Ruyu.
"Senior Brother Wen, you and Senior Brother Huang please come with me!"
