That day, Cai Junze was desperately reciting the first chapter of the Tao Te Ching.
Just fifty-nine words, and he couldn't even memorize them?
He doesn't believe in evil!
I memorized it again and again, and finally, I managed to memorize it on the way back.
However, I recited it haltingly and not as smoothly as my mother did.
"Mom, I've memorized it, see?"
"It took me a whole day to memorize it, and I'm still stuttering!"
There was a hint of contempt in Liu Shulin's eyes!
"But, I memorized it after all!" Cai Junze defended.
Liu Shulin said nothing.
Then, the next day, early in the morning, she started checking again.
Cai Junze opened his mouth and stammered a few sentences, then realized that he had forgotten almost half of them. Liu Shulin snorted and said, "You forgot it as soon as you woke up?"
Cai Junze was extremely embarrassed. Liu Shulin said, "Continue reciting the first chapter to me! Once you've memorized it thoroughly, then proceed to the second chapter!"
Cai Junze felt a sudden headache and said, "Mom, you're not going to ask me to memorize the entire Tao Te Ching, are you?"
Liu Shulin glanced at him and said, "Not just the Tao Te Ching, but the others as well! Just memorize them in order. Memorize the Tao Te Ching first. Once you've memorized it, you'll be able to recite it completely and fluently whenever you're asked. Then you can move on to the others."
Cai Junze's expression changed slightly, and he said reluctantly, "Mom, what's the point of carrying these things? I can't use them for work or eating!"
Liu Shulin said with a serious expression, "They certainly won't be used for work or meals, but once you've memorized them thoroughly and can recite them by heart, it will definitely be of great benefit to the cultivation of your own temperament and character! Especially your temperament, it's time to hone it!"
"I think my temperament is pretty good right now, so there's no need to polish it." Cai Junze said with a curled lip. "Besides, even if I memorize this thing, I don't know what it means. So, what's the point of just memorizing it without understanding its meaning?"
Liu Shulin said, "Once you've read it more and memorized it, you'll eventually know what it's about. Anyway, it won't hurt to memorize it first and commit it to memory."
"If you've memorized it all and still can't understand it, I can find you a teacher to help you solve your puzzles!"
"Anyway, just memorize it first, and then we can talk about other things!"
"Otherwise, it's all bullshit!"
"Besides, with your personality, you still have the nerve to say it's fine?"
"hehe!"
There was a hint of sarcasm in Liu Shulin's smile!
After being scolded by his mother, although Cai Junze was very unhappy and reluctant, he still obediently went to recite the "Tao Te Ching".
Liu Shulin now gave him a task, which was to memorize a chapter of the "Tao Te Ching" in two days!
The Tao Te Ching has a total of eighty-one chapters, which means she gave him one hundred and sixty-two days, or almost half a year, to memorize all the chapters of the book.
The chapters of the Tao Te Ching are very short, and she feels that the time given is already very generous.
If they are generally good at it, it is not a problem for them to memorize several or even dozens of chapters a day.
Giving him so much time is entirely due to his level... Well, he's too bad!
"Mom, if I carry this thing every day, won't I have to not do anything?" Cai Junze complained.
"A chapter only has dozens of words, or more than a hundred words. I give you two days for each chapter, and you still can't memorize it?" Liu Shulin will not indulge him!
"I'm telling you, even if I work during the day and take some time out at night to memorize one chapter a day, I can still memorize it!"
"If you don't believe me, let's have a competition!"
Liu Shulin has a good memory, so she is very confident in herself.
After that, she recited the first chapter she had memorized yesterday, and then said, "See, I memorized it, and it didn't affect my work."
Cai Junze was speechless.
There is a feeling of "numbness" in my heart.
How could she be so powerful when she never went to school?
In fact, he didn't know that his grandfather was a teacher!
Grandpa passed away too early, so he doesn't have much impression of him.
Liu Shulin has been learning various things from her father who is a teacher since she was a child, and she loves to study. Growing up in such an environment, her level will certainly not be too bad!
However, after Liu Shulin left the Liu family and married into the Cai family, she rarely read books or other things, so many people didn't know that she was somewhat knowledgeable.
Cai Junze only knew that his mother could read and write, but he didn't know how well she could read. After all, he had never seen her demonstrate this ability.
Now, it seems that I have seen some things and am shocked!
"Memorize it well!"
Liu Shulin glared at him and said, "If you can't even beat me, you can go bang your head against the wall!"
Cai Junze: “…”
Liu Shulin was too lazy to tell him that she had actually learned it.
She is not illiterate!
After all, he had memorized the first chapter of Tao Te Ching yesterday, but he didn't remember it very well. So, when his mother made a surprise inspection, he didn't memorize it. He memorized it a few more times, and then he memorized the first chapter.
After finishing this chapter, his mission for today was completed.
So, while going to the toilet, he slipped away quietly again.
Seeing that he didn't come back for a long time, Liu Shulin knew that this kid had probably gone to find Yuan Xiaoe.
Oh, I really won’t give up…
"Our family has already reached an agreement with the wealthy family in the city. Cai Junze, please don't bother our Xiao'e anymore!" Yuan's mother opened the door and said indifferently.
