1187 The Strict Father Is Fearful

The two young men, Chen Jiu and Chen Yi, stood in front of Shen Zhezi, with a slightly restrained expression and a little uncontrollable admiration, but less brotherly intimacy.

It is no wonder that they have been sensible since childhood. They have heard all the brothers’ deeds, whether elegant or magnificent. Almost everyone around them has filled his glorious and majestic image in their words and deeds, and many cognitions have long become deeply rooted in their hearts.

So from a very early stage, these two teenagers knew that the reason why they were different from the people around them was that they were born in such a courtroom and had such a brother with such a worldly power.

However, they lacked an intuitive feeling about this brother. Although they were not very different from each other, they were not born yet, and this brother was already famous all over the river. When they were still playing in the courtyard and were full of bad habits, this brother had already been strong in the Central Plains, and everyone in the north and south knew about it.

Seeing that the two little brothers were respectful and had a distant look, Shen Zhezi couldn't help laughing. If he gained something, he would lose something. He was always away from home and was inevitably a little alienated in family affection. Not to mention these brothers of his peers, even his own son A Xiu, had only become closer in these few months.

"The scenery gradually changes, and my foals have grown up. Seeing the two brothers in front of Yingting, I feel like I am no longer old."

Pointing at his two little brothers, Shen Zhezi smiled and said to his father. This statement sounds a bit strange to outsiders. It doesn't look like the tone of a brother commenting on his younger brother, but the family members here did not find it abrupt. No one else felt that there was anything wrong with his father, including his father.

This is not the snobbery in the big family. It is really Shen Zhezi's many performances over the years, which makes people subconsciously ignore his age and identity.

Chen Chong had little chance to show his father's power in front of his eldest son. He probably wanted to make up for this shortcomings in front of the other sons, so he was very strict with the two young children. He pointed at them and snorted coldly: "You can live in this courtyard and enjoy the shade of your father and brother, and you can work harder and hard. In the past, he did not do his best to study in Jiangzuo, but now that he has entered the Heluo Heaven, he should remember that the door is not easy to be famous. If you dare to do anything to corrupt the family tradition, I will break your legs!"

The two and a half-old boys have always been so happy in front of their father. They probably have been used to this kind of rebuke. After hearing this, they bent down and said, "I dare not."

When Shen Zhezi saw this scene, he felt a little reluctant, especially thinking about the many counterattack literary descriptions in later generations. He might not have been allowed to have some of the two brothers with a halo of destiny, and he was filled with a sense of hostility. He wanted to take his world first and also think about his wives and concubines. Thinking of this, he actually felt a sense of self-awareness as a villain.

Of course, this is just a little gimmick. Shen Zhezi has been advancing to this day and understands better how hard this road is. There is no possibility of a glimmer of hope when he grits his teeth and stomps his feet.

"I often run outside the side and take care of my family. I am apologizing for my elder brother to teach and show my example. You two are now very proud of your studies, and I don't know how to study?"

Putting aside some distracting thoughts in his heart, Shen Zhezi asked with a smile, and signaling them to take a seat nearby.

Seeing that my brother was kind and not as strict as his father, the two boys breathed a sigh of relief. After turning their eyes and asking for instructions, they sat carefully in the side seat, and then described their respective academic status in a stern manner.

Nowadays, students are not as clearly arranged in various Confucian classics as they did in the Ming and Qing dynasties, but there is generally one step. When they learn characters in childhood, they learn poetry in advance, and after reading a little bit of rhyme and sentences, they have to start learning the scriptures.

At this point, some people who have a family background have taught themselves to express their own life. If not, some will stop and transfer to other common things. Some people will also visit scholars sincerely and search for famous teachers. The famous Yiquetian Middle School is that this can be said to be the place where many masters in this world teach publicly.

Later generations talk about this era, or say that knowledge is monopolized by aristocratic families. In fact, the word "monopolization" is still a bit biased. The more accurate statement should be that the dissemination of knowledge is not smooth, rather than those aristocratic families actively control knowledge without losing it. If the poor family really wants to learn, although it is not as convenient as the children of aristocratic families, there are channels to choose.

Moreover, as far as Shen Zhezi's feelings are concerned, it is not very meaningful to simply discuss whether knowledge is monopolized. In the final analysis, the way of monetizing knowledge is restricted.

The reason why Tianzhong School has such a great influence is that Xinshi Pavilion and the Engineering Academy can be said to be a talent training base for Taiwan and Taiwan. Those students may not rule out that they are really eager to learn, but they are not mainstream. They regard this as a springboard and use this to enter the Taiwan-domestic ruling institutions, which is the real purpose.

Just as knowledge in later generations has become so popular, no one has become a master of scholars, and there are even many grassroots heroes who believe that learning is useless.

There is an example of Shen Zhezi's family. This kid's life is much better than Shen Zhezi. He has no worries about family business and no worries about future. Originally, Shen Zhezi had high hopes for this kid, hoping to train him into a starting point for the family's literary success, but this kid did not like the classics and became more likely to join the army.

However, Shen Jiu and Shen Yi did not follow the footsteps of their two brothers. They were both sincerely studying. One was under Yu Xi's disciple of Kuaiji, and the other studied under Fan Wang, a great scholar in Nanyang. Of course, this does not rule out that they dare not resist their father Yin Wei. You must know that Shen Jin, the kid, completely deviated from the north after going to Shouchun.

From this point of view, it is also beneficial for parents to be strict. Young people love ziyou and have to dream, but that little shallow life experience and immature worldview are really insufficient to support them to walk out of a broad road. Even if they have it, they are mostly lucky.

Although Shen Zhezi did not deliberately learn the principles of classics and principles, he has been in this world for nearly twenty years and his daily interactions are the best management in this world. He can be said to be unlearning and knowledgeable about Dali.

After learning that these two boys had their own inheritance, they picked up some academic questions and took the school exam. The answers between the two boys were considered to be fair. Although they did not show any strange talents and insightful opinions, it can also be seen that their academic intentions are not just relying on their family and wasting their time.
