Last year, there were fourteen students, seven of whom, including the six-year-old, were kept in the small class, and the remaining seven entered the large class.
A dozen other students joined the group, two of whom were four years old, and the rest were children in their early teens.
Last year, everyone thought Song Jinxiu was just playing with the children, so they were all taken to the fields to help!
However, Song Jinxiu's performance last year shocked them, and the children who went to school did learn a lot of knowledge.
Therefore, parents with children in the village rushed their children to school. After all, there would be no shortage of little brats working in the fields!
I'm already in my teens and don't expect to go to college. It's good enough if I can learn to read and write every day.
After studying for a few years, you can be considered a semi-educated person, which will give you an advantage when looking for a partner in the future.
So the situation in the small class is that the little kids sit in the front and a group of older guys sit in the back.
This situation is a bit weird!
The study in the small classes this year is not so harmonious. After all, if there are not a few students who don’t like to study, can it still be a serious school?
"Teacher Song, why don't you talk to my dad and let me go farming? I, I really can't concentrate on my studies!" Tian Jun scratched his head and said to Song Jinxiu with a distressed look.
"I heard that your ancestors were the top scorers in the imperial examination?" Song Jinxiu did not answer him but asked instead.
"Ah? Yes, those are our ancestors. They just like to talk about them. Besides, the top scorers in the past have nothing to do with us!" Tian Jun said.
"The previous top scholar has nothing to do with you, but what about your father? He was a scholar, and so was your grandfather.
Think about your childhood, they didn’t forget to help you with your education during those difficult times. You can imagine that they still have high hopes for you!
Now that life is better and you can go to school, why do you not want to study anymore?" Song Jinxiu asked.
"Actually!" Tian Jun looked around! "I want to join the army, but my family won't allow it! You see, I'm not the only child, so why wouldn't my parents allow it?"
"If you are not the only child, then you are not the apple of your parents' eyes? Do you think that just because you have many children you can just abandon them and sacrifice them at will?" Song Jinxiu was stunned by him!
"That's not what I meant. I just want to go out and explore the world. I admire those soldiers very much. I think those who defend their country are true heroes. How cool!" Tian Jun said with a longing look on his face.
"Have you ever thought about why generals have military advisors and emperors have think tanks?
Can you win just by fighting? Most of the time, you still have to use your brain." Song Jinxiu pointed to her head and said.
"That's because we have a think tank," said Tian Jun.
"If you don't have your own judgment and just do what others tell you to do, do you think you can last long as a general?
What if your think tank disagrees and you need to make a decision? How do you choose? Toss a coin?
You have to understand that every decision a general makes affects the life and death of everyone under him!" Song Jinxiu continued.
"Or, you don't want to be a general anymore? Just be a soldier charging forward headfirst?
What is the goal of a soldier? Isn't it to become a general? Do you want to be a soldier for the rest of your life?
"A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier," said Tian Jun.
"That's it. So the question is back to the starting point. If you want to be a general, you must at least have your own judgment.
"Studying isn't about learning something profound, but at least it helps you better distinguish right from wrong!" Song Jinxiu said.
"Oh, but studying is really too difficult!" Tian Jun said distressedly.
"You can't even endure such a small hardship, and you still want to be a general! Can you understand a military book in front of you? Do you know how to deploy troops? Not to mention conspiracy!"
Song Jinxiu said, "You should learn more knowledge while you are still young. If you really have the opportunity to join the army in the future, you can fight for yourself!
In one case, if you are knowledgeable and cultured, you can at least become an officer if you join the army.
There is another situation where you don’t know anything and you are just a soldier when you go there, the first to charge into battle.
In which case do you think your parents are more likely to give in?"
"Oh, I understand, Teacher Song!" Tian Jun walked into the classroom with his head down.
No matter what, studying is still very difficult!
"You can regard being a soldier as a big prize. Studying is the first hurdle. Only by conquering it and defeating it can you reach your sunny road!" Song Jinxiu encouraged from behind.
Of course, after passing the first level, there are still the second and third levels.
Life is just one hurdle after another!
Also, Xianyu Xiaopang is really a person who can't tolerate anything.
No matter what you say to him, he nods and agrees very much, but in the end he still has to do what he has to do!
It's not that he was causing trouble.
He listened to the lectures very carefully and completed his homework very carefully, but in the end he still knew nothing.
He always took the last place in every mock exam. Once, he was ranked second to last and his dad was so happy that he was happy the whole day!
There is also an Erni, and Song Jinxiu discovered that she has a talent for fashion design.
Every time I go to her house, I can see her love for the sewing machine at home. She is always touching it here and looking at it there.
Unfortunately, she had no fabric and couldn't get started.
Moreover, Song Jinxiu had heard her comment on her friends' clothes several times, saying that adding a little decoration could make the overall look different.
Song Jinxiu took her to her home and took out her old clothes to make them up for her.
She touched Song Jinxiu's clothes in surprise and asked, "Really? Really? Are you really going to let me change them as you like?"
Song Jinxiu smiled and nodded.
After obtaining Song Jinxiu's consent, she used the sewing machine skillfully.
"Have you used it before?" Song Jinxiu asked.
"No. But I've seen my aunt and Teacher Song use it!" Erni answered while adjusting her clothes.
Song Jinxiu also took out a lot of scraps of cloth for her to use as she pleased, and then left without disturbing her creation.
The final product! Song Jinxiu couldn't appreciate it, but it had the style of a big brand.
Just like the catwalk costumes Song Jinxiu had seen!
Besides, Erni is only six or seven years old and doesn’t have much experience.
Being able to design clothes is already very good!
If you study for a few more years and have the opportunity to pursue further studies, your future will be limitless!
"That shady stuff, I knew there was something fishy going on with them. Every time I bought it I thought the size was wrong, but when I saw him measure it I knew it was correct.
"Who would have thought he would tamper with the ruler? I've bought cloth from them for so many years, and he's been cheated out of so much!" said an aunt as she walked by.
Because of anger, his voice unconsciously became louder.
"That's right! And Chen's Pharmacy, they actually sell fake medicine.
This is even more heartless and deadly! How can they be so heartless! "Another aunt echoed.
