Chapter 374 Leisurely days, teaching younger siblings
It rained heavily all night, moistening the dry earth.
The next day, the whole Guangling became much fresher, and the weather was not as hot as the burning fire some time ago.
Early in the morning, the county magistrate sent someone to deliver the invitation. A banquet will be held at the government office at noon, accompanied by old gentry from the official township, and a thank-you banquet will be held for Qin Guan.
The banquet was very lively, and Taoist elder Dao Yuantong was still there that day. He recovered very quickly. He still needed help yesterday, but today he can walk on his own.
Yuantong sat next to Qin Guan and asked in a low voice: "Fellow Taoist, I don't know if that Corpse Pill can be sold."
Qin Guan raised his eyes and said, "What is Brother Yuantong going to do with that Corpse Pill?"
"Actually, the greatest ability of our Tiandao Sect is not to kill demons. When it comes to dealing with evil spirits, your Sword Sect is the best. Our Tiandao Sect's best skills are making talismans and refining elixirs. That Corpse Pill is a
If you find another extremely yang elixir and practice the two elixirs together, you can create the ultimate yin and yang elixir."
"Oh, what does this Yin Yang Wuji Pill do?"
"This elixir is very useful for monks in the Qi Training Realm to attack the Foundation Establishment Realm." After the old Taoist finished speaking, he looked at Qin Guan and suddenly said: "Well, fellow Taoist is also in the Qi Training Realm. I think it will be useful in the future, so I won't take it away from others.
Love it."
Qin Guan smiled and said nothing.
The next day, Lao Dao came to Qin's house, thanked Qin Guan again for his life-saving grace, and said that if he had time, he could go to Tiandao Sect to find him. If he needed to make elixirs, he could help, and then he said goodbye and left.
The story of Qin Guan's killing of Han Ba quickly spread, and people in Guangling and even Jeju knew about it.
Qin Guan's sword killed the drought demon, solved the severe drought in several counties, and saved the people from fire and water, making Qin Guan's prestige in Guangling extremely high.
No matter where they go, when people see Qin Guan, they will salute respectfully.
Even the Qin family is respected.
Qin Dashou occasionally went out for a walk, and many people took the initiative to salute, which made Qin Dashou feel bright on his face and smiling all day long.
Magistrate Di County reported this matter to the imperial court. A few days later, the imperial court issued a reward. The emperor gave a plaque "Eliminating harm for the people" that can be hung in the hall. He also gave a pair of six-sided porcelain vases, which meant peace. This was a tribute to the Qin Dynasty.
Watch the rewards of merit.
Qin Guan didn't care too much about this, but his family was very happy.
Everything was stable, and Qin Guan began a truly idle life.
In addition to meditating and practicing swordsmanship every day, he also teaches his younger brothers and sisters knowledge when he has nothing to do.
The eldest brother Qin Ziheng is 19 years old this year, the second brother Qin Zixu is also 17 years old, the eldest sister Qin Hui is 15 years old, and the youngest sister Qin Wan is only 10 years old.
Both of his younger brothers are studying. Qin Dashou is persistent in the matter of studying. He believes that the only way to change the Qin family is studying. Of course, many families in ancient times were like this, so children in the family, regardless of gender, would ask to study.
Even the youngest Wan'er is studying Qionglin in kindergarten.
And he succeeded. A Jieyuan like Qin Guan was born in the family. In the future, the Qin family will enter the gentry class, which is completely different from the previous small landowner families.
There are four sets of tables and chairs in the hall, like a small academy, where the younger brothers and sisters sit and study, but they each study different things.
Qin Guan walked behind Xiao Wan'er and saw that she was practicing her calligraphy. Her writing was crooked and her forehead was covered with sweat. Qin Guan nodded and said, "Well, Wan'er's handwriting has improved."
"Brother, can I say thank you with such beautiful words like you?" Wan'er asked.
"Of course you can, you can do it as long as you work hard." Qin Guan encouraged.
"Well, brother, I will definitely work hard." Wan'er said.
Qin Guan patted her little head.
Turning behind his eldest sister Qin Hui, he saw that she was reading "Biography of Women". Qin Guan said, "These books commend beauty and praise women's noble moral character and intelligence. But remember, any question must be viewed dialectically."
, don’t be stupid when something happens, and die together or something like that, you must know how to use your brain to do things.”
The eldest sister was very surprised by her brother's point of view, "But why is it different from what my husband said? He said that a woman must obey the three virtues and be a chaste and loyal woman in order to be praised by others."
"Your husband is a scholar, I am a scholar, or I am a judge, who do you think is right?" Qin Guan said confidently.
"Of course it's my brother."
"Then just listen to me. Just read this kind of book once."
Then he turned to his two younger brothers. Qin Guan had left homework for them before. They all had to take the scholar examination this year. Qin Guan simulated the questions for them according to the examination rules.
In fact, this kind of mock test is very useful for candidates. One is to increase confidence, and the other is to increase the level of tension. It can also explore the details, and then explain the questions to deepen the impression.
When the time came, the two of them handed in the paper. Qin Guan took it over and read it quickly. He gave the eldest brother a B grade and the second brother a C grade.
Qin Guan's tone was much more serious to his two younger brothers. He pointed out the shortcomings in the test paper, explained it to them bit by bit, and asked them to read the explanations of the scriptures on their own.
The two younger brothers studied hard.
Speaking of which, it is definitely their luck to have such a brother Jieyuan. Qin Guan is now considered a veteran in the examination room. With the modern summary of theoretical teaching, he definitely knows how to teach better than those private school teachers.
.
Someone once said that if educational institutions such as New Oriental and Xueersi were allowed to intervene in the ancient imperial examinations, they would definitely analyze the entire imperial examination thoroughly, and then summarize the key and difficult points. After analyzing past questions,
Analyzing the examiners of this year's preference for pressing questions, it is basically true that every examination for scholar examinations is accurate. It is not difficult to select candidates, and it is not an extravagant hope to be admitted to the imperial examinations.
Why so few scholars from poor families passed the examination in ancient times, and it was mostly children from rich families who easily passed the examination? This has something to do with the research of those rich families on how to take the examination.
In fact, Qin Guan had already used these kung fu techniques when he asked his two younger brothers questions.
As the days passed, Qin Guan actually enjoyed this feeling.
Leisurely, relax, read books and teach your younger brothers and sisters.
Practice at night.
Day after day, there is nothing to worry about.
Good.
In a blink of an eye, the day of the annual scholar examination came. Qin Guan personally sent his two younger brothers into the examination room and told them not to panic, as long as they used the knowledge he usually taught them, there should be no problem.
When the exam was over, Qin Dashou and Qin Guan came to pick up their two sons. When they returned home, Qin Dashou asked his two sons: "How did you feel about this exam?"
The two looked at each other, and the eldest brother said: "My brother has taught me those test questions and explained them in detail. My son feels that he should be able to pass them."
The second brother said: "When I saw those questions, my first feeling was that my brother is so amazing."
Qin Guan laughed.
