Uncle Fu looked somewhat worried and said to Chen Xian, "Brother Chen, I was just about to tell you about this. Recently, something strange has been going on across from the small square. Those boring scholars from the 'Rotten Scholars' school have started attacking your work..."
"You really should reconsider your new book project... This isn't good!"
"Even the county school's instructor, Xu, got involved..."
"Qingyunlou is here too, jumping around!"
Chen Xian shook his head and said, "I understand."
"Whose path are you blocking?"
"I know Qingyunlou. He recently collaborated with Beixi Bookstore to write a storytelling book, probably a detective story type..."
Instructor Xu, when he first came to Qingxia Village.
This old man was arrogant and seemed to look down on us country folk. Back when we were in the village, I casually said a few words about him…
Uncle Fu was slightly taken aback.
A wry smile.
"Brother, you're really stubborn. Instructor Xu represents the county school, and he has dozens of students who support him. If he gets the urge to organize some young people to smear you... then your new book will be in trouble..."
Chen Xian calmly replied, "Then let's start by taking down Qingyun Tower. Isn't he good at writing detective stories?"
I never imagined that an old man I initially paid no attention to could be so annoying!
Fu Bo chuckled and said, "I'm really looking forward to Brother Chen's new work..."
Chen Xian continued, "I wonder what kind of works Instructor Xu is good at writing?"
"Um."
Uncle Fu looked puzzled.
Goodness.
Are you planning to eliminate both of them in one go?
"Brother Chen, calm down. Instructor Xu holds an official position, and he has a very thorough understanding of literature and Confucianism. He also has his own insights into the appreciation of poetry. His preliminary interpretations of poetry have always sold very well in town, but recently, sales have been sluggish..."
Chen Xian smiled, pursing his lips.
"No wonder this guy hates me so much. It turns out that the recent surge in the creation of storybooks in the city has affected his sales?"
"An Initial Understanding of Poetry?"
In his previous life, Chen Xian had tried taking the civil service exam several times during his internship.
He didn't want to get involved in big city life anymore.
And their abilities are average.
His educational background is also average.
They can't compare to those high-quality, energetic young people at all.
That was during the pandemic.
At that time, my hometown county did not restrict non-professionals from applying for teaching positions.
Furthermore, recent graduates are not required to have a teacher's professional qualification certificate; they can obtain it within one year of starting their job.
After preparing for several months, I plan to go straight home.
He was targeting the Chinese language subject.
During my exam preparation, I practiced dozens or even hundreds of poetry appreciation templates.
So he secretly wondered if he could also create a book of poetry appreciation?
"Brother, find me a copy of this book, I want to take a look..."
But Chen Xian is like that, attentive and serious.
Uncle Fu was both amused and exasperated.
This is a serious decision to go head-to-head with Instructor Xu.
I started learning about poetry and its basics.
Looking at that long section analyzing the characters' personalities.
They all seem to be lyrical texts.
It even included some personal speculations.
Chen Xian's expression turned into that of an old man frowning on the subway.
Can this stuff really help students prepare for exams?
Mr. Xu seems to be taking things too lightly.
I wrote a whole bunch of random stuff.
The whole thing is just pointless whining.
There was no analysis of the key points and difficulties.
At that time, he broke down the classic question types based on his summary of the civil service exam.
They can be roughly divided into 12 classic question types.
Examples of question types include those analyzing artistic conception, techniques, language features, word choice, understanding the whole poem from a single word, different viewpoints, emotional themes, evaluation, and contextual appreciation.
Seeing Chen Xian sitting there, writing and drawing on paper, occasionally frowning in deep thought.
Uncle Fu shook his head and smiled.
Brother Chen is being too presumptuous.
You've never taken the exam, so you don't know how complex it is.
The students who passed the imperial examinations shared a similar approach to appreciating and creating poetry.
They were also required to be able to compose poetry when they were studying.
Trying to cram at the last minute, reading a few books, and expecting to come up with a coherent analysis is unrealistic.
They even dared to write a book.
That's pure fantasy.
Writing storybooks is your forte.
Appreciating poetry requires time and a lot of practice.
They were busy for about half an hour.
Chen Xian stood up.
He was carefully considering what had happened to the Gu family.
He would occasionally doodle or write on the table with his finger.
The only vulnerability right now.
That's Gu's housekeeper, Uncle Ru.
Ultimately, Chen Xian admitted that he was being a little too hasty in his plans for the Gu family.
For example, the leak was not completely blocked.
He's not a bad person, nor is he a pervert.
Malicious killer.
He never intended to harm anyone.
Why are all these people pressuring me?
I did nothing wrong.
They are the ones who are wrong.
They brought this upon themselves.
I was just waiting for them to catch me off guard before I could deliver a crushing blow and completely sever all those entanglements.
So that they may be spared hardship and suffering in the future.
Well, in that sense, I guess I'm a good person.
A kind person.
They should thank me.
"Is it time to properly arrange things for this Uncle Ru, the head butler of the Gu family?"
I'm not sure about the old man's loyalty.
What if the other party is stubborn and insists on their own way?
He told the county government that he and the Gu family had a slight conflict.
