Nongmen ruffian concubine: ploughing the fields, planting buns

Chapter 160 Take the First Step

You can continue to study with her, or be guided by her for self-study, or go elsewhere.

This is because she has thought out all kinds of follow-up issues in advance, but the village head and the elders are clear in their hearts, if the peasants don't test their merits, who would study for so long?

Five years is good enough, ten years at most, and those who can read for ten years are determined to take official careers.

But being able to learn knowledge and save a lot of money in the past five years is the reason why they can't hold back their excitement.

"It's true that Shuxiu is not high, he can handle it every month." The village chief smiled and glanced at the other elders.

"It doesn't matter whether it's quarterly or monthly. If you can't pay in any month, as long as the reason is acceptable, our village can borrow money. It's better for the village to collect the debt than to let people owe Ding Shi this child."

Elder Li Qi opened his mouth with a smile, already thinking about what to do if someone fails to pay the money.

There was no objection to his proposal.

"Ding Shi, from the age of three, there are more than a dozen children in our village who want to be enlightened, can you teach them?" Old Wang Daqi was still a little worried.

"Ding Shi has just entered the industry, and there will be no problem within [-] years. If there is more experience, Ding Shi will have a new way to solve this problem."

When Ding Shitou was asked, he quickly put down his teacup and explained.

"Oh? If there is such a time, how will you solve it?" Elder Wang Erqi immediately asked curiously.

"Ding Shi doesn't know how the old scholar taught so many students, but Ding Shi himself, even now, has arranged for his younger brother Ding Dian to be a teaching assistant."

"For example, Ding Shi has to do farm work, or go out, assign homework, or supervise literacy, and he can do it all."

"In the future, if there are too many people to take care of them, we can pay for people who can read and write in the village to help discipline the children and check their homework. Ding Shi will teach a few teaching assistants to expand the scope of control."

"Is this too child's play?" Hearing what she said, the elders began to worry again.

Can this teach children who know [-] characters in five years?
"The elders are worrying too much. Even if Ding Shi gets the title on the gold list and starts the school again, so what? Can you teach everyone to be the number one scholar?" Ding Shitou chuckled.

"No matter how knowledgeable a teacher is, he is still a teacher. As long as the method is used correctly and step by step, knowledge is accumulated. If you really want to teach disciples who are outstanding, you must teach less in addition to your own understanding and diligence."

"Everyone knows that famous teachers choose the best and teach. Those who are randomly accepted are called students, and those who personally teach are called disciples. The care and dedication of the master to the direct disciples is not comparable to the three or five liang of training every quarter."

Ding Shitou turned the words around and spoke so truthfully that everyone was speechless.

Not to mention learning, the same is true for learning crafts.

Only those things that the master likes and values ​​will be taught seriously, and the others?Teach casually, if you can teach you, you will be regarded as a good teacher with a conscience.

If you don't?Then keep learning until you leave voluntarily.

Therefore, there is a saying that the master introduces the door, and the cultivation depends on the individual. A famous teacher's advice is better than ten years of reading.

"Ding Shi, how about I come to be a teaching assistant next year?" Liu Xuegui interrupted suddenly, "I will take the entrance examination for children's students next year, and I will concentrate on studying this year. I can come next summer."

"If there are more students at that time, that's fine." Naturally, Ding Shitou would not refuse, let's talk about next year's affairs next year.

Seeing that Liu Xuegui wanted to be the teaching assistant, the elders stopped talking.

They even thought that if the teaching assistants were all like Liu Xuegui who had studied for ten years, they would feel at ease.

So far, Ding Shitou's plan to open a village school has taken the first step.
