Chapter 48 Official Seal
The classroom was silent as the three of them waited quietly for Zheng Tongsheng.
Suddenly there was a bang-bang-bang sound outside, and Sun Shan knew that Zheng Tongsheng was coming.
Sun Shan and others sat upright, with their backs straight, looking out the door from time to time.
After a while, Zheng Tongsheng, dressed in a white gown, walked in. Seeing the three students sitting obediently on the chairs, he nodded with satisfaction and said, "You three are the students I accepted this year. You are my classmates. I hope you will study hard, help each other, and make progress together."
Sun Shan and others replied with a yes.
Zheng Tongsheng nodded with satisfaction and said, "Come, today we will learn the Three Character Classic. I will read a sentence and you will read a sentence."
At the beginning of human beings, nature is good.The sex is similar, but the habit is far away.
Master Zheng read a sentence, and Sun Shan and his two companions followed him and read a sentence.
Master Zheng first read a sentence in Guangnan dialect, and then read it again in the so-called Shangjing Mandarin.
Sun Shan and several others could read fluently in Guangnan dialect, but several others read Beijing Mandarin poorly.
The official language used in Beijing here is not the Mandarin of the past, but rather more like the Suzhou dialect and the Wu dialect.
The reason why Sun Shan thought it was Suzhou dialect was because he had been to Suzhou for a trip.
He went to a teahouse to experience the Suzhou style and ordered a 50-yuan cup of tea. He also spent a huge sum of 100 yuan to order a Pingtan song, which was "Jasmine Flower". From then on, Sun Shan felt that Suzhou dialect was very soft and pleasant to listen to.
At this time, Sun Shan did not benefit from being able to speak Mandarin in his previous life.
At this moment he is a blank slate and needs to start from scratch.
Master Zheng did not scold, but comforted him by saying, "You will not be able to read correctly at the beginning, so take your time. We will read word by word. We must learn to speak the official language of Shangjing. Knowing one more language will give you one more advantage, and it will help you find a good job. Do you understand?"
Sun Shan and the other two said they understood.
Master Zheng taught it again from the beginning.
After teaching you how to read, Master Zheng began to explain the meaning of the 12 characters and told you the stories behind them. He did not, as the legend goes, ask you to memorize them by heart and then explain their meanings to you.
After teaching for a whole morning, the 12 characters were finally taught, but Sun Shan and others still didn't know how to write them.
Master Zheng said, "I will teach you how to write in the afternoon. You can eat first." After that, he left, probably going to the next classroom.
After Sun Shan and the other two respectfully watched Master Zheng leave, De Geer immediately slumped down in his chair and said with a dull look in his eyes, "Shanzi, I don't want to go to school. It's so difficult."
Sun Shan also found it difficult. He knew the characters, but it was too difficult to read them in Beijing dialect. What was more important was the calligraphy practice in the afternoon, which made him even more confused.
In his previous life, Sun Shan also attended a calligraphy class as an interest class at school. He spent three classes practicing the character "永". In the end, his patience ran out and he gave up. He never wrote calligraphy again.
Yang Qingbei on the other side said timidly: "So you guys also find it difficult."
I thought I was the only one who found it difficult. Since everyone finds it difficult, it proves that it is indeed difficult. I studied very hard in class, so you can't blame me.
Sun Shan looked outside. It was noon, and nothing was more important than eating. He said tiredly, "Let's go eat. We still have classes in the afternoon."
The three of them walked out of the classroom and went to the kitchen, where the food that Zheng Bo had heated up was placed on the shelf.
The students picked up their lunch boxes, walked out of the kitchen and came to the open space in the yard.
There was no cafeteria in Zheng’s School, so students could only sit on the stone steps and eat their meals.
Students from the middle and senior classes were also there.
Sun Shan looked carefully and found that there were only 14 students in total.
There are 5 people from Sun Shan’s family, plus the two grandsons of the village chief, there are 7 people from Sunjia Village attending Zheng’s School.
Good guy!
In other words, Sunjia Village contributed half of the GDP of Zheng’s School.
No wonder Zheng Tongsheng was so polite to Sun Boming and others. In addition to the intricate in-law relationship, more importantly, the Sun family was the owner of Zheng Tongsheng's rice restaurant.
After class, students in the big class eat together, students in the middle class eat with students in the middle class, and students in the small class eat together, with clear distinctions.
As for Sun Shan's cousins, they chatted with Sun Shan and De Ge'er for a few words and then joined their classmates.
De Ge'er quickly opened the lunch box and placed sweet potato rice, a handful of green vegetables and two eggs in it.
He said to Sun Shan, "Shanzi, quickly open your lunch box and see what you are going to eat today."
Sun Shan’s lunch box was very heavy. When he opened it, it contained white rice, vegetables and braised pork.
When De Geer saw the tempting red-braised pork, he said pitifully, "Shanzi, I doubt that I am my mother's biological child. If I am, she should cook meat for me this year."
Sun Shan rolled his eyes at De Ge'er and said, "You look exactly like your mother. No one would believe that you are not her biological child."
Don’t you look at your elder brother’s and second brother’s meals? They both have one fried egg. You two should be content.
Sun Shan put three or four pieces of meat into De Ge'er's lunch box and said seriously, "No more. If I give you more, I won't have anything to eat."
De Geer chuckled and said with satisfaction: "Thank you Shanzi."
He put another fried egg into Sun Shan's lunch box, and Sun Shan took half of it to taste.
De Geer is big and eats a lot. But we can't have one.
De Geer glanced at Yang Qingbei next to him again, and was discovered by Yang Qingbei. He quickly dodged and leaned close to Sun Shan's ear, whispering, "Shanzi, Qingbei's meal is more abundant. He has chicken legs to eat."
Sun Shan was calm inside, he could guess what was going on without De Ge'er telling him.
Because he smelled chicken, and among the 14 students here, Yang Qingbei's clothes were made of the best material, and the material of the bookcase he used was also exquisite.
More importantly, he has a fair and clean complexion, without any of the earthy air of a country kid, and it's obvious at first glance that he's not a farmer.
When I get home, I'll ask Sun Boming which family in Yangjia Village is the rich one, and then I'll know whose son Yang Qingbei is.
Su was afraid that Sun Shan would not have enough to eat, so she packed him a lot of rice, twice as much as Sun Shan usually ate.
I ate half of it and couldn't eat any more, but De Ge'er was drooling over it.
Sun Shan handed him the leftovers.
De Geer took it happily and said gratefully: "Shanzi, thank you, my aunt is much better than my mother. Otherwise, I will be adopted by my uncle and become your big brother. I will live in your house and eat at your house."
Sun Dingguang, who was standing next to him, gave De Ge'er a big bag and angrily scolded him, "I told you not to talk nonsense. When we get home, I'll tell my mother about it."
Sun Dingyong also echoed that the third brother was too rude. He even said he wanted to be adopted just because of his stuttering.
De Ge'er said fearfully, "Big Brother, Second Brother, I'm just talking, I won't do it, so please don't tell my mother."
If my mother knew about this, she would definitely join forces with my father to play mixed doubles, and my butt would be in big trouble.
Everyone burst into laughter when they heard the conversation between the three brothers.
One of the village chief's grandsons, cousin Dingnan, came over to Dege'er and said with a smile, "Dege'er, don't say these things carelessly. If your mother finds out, you'll be scolded. If the teacher hears, he'll think you have bad behavior and recognize your parents incorrectly."
De Geer nodded hurriedly and said, "Brother Dingnan, I understand. I was just joking. You guys just pretended you didn't hear me."
After saying this, everyone burst into laughter again.
