Chapter 334 He Must Amaze Everyone
Zhong Wende was speechless again. He felt that this was the only extra sentence he had to say.
"Luo Sheng asked to go back home for a year to fulfill his filial duty. His grandfather passed away due to illness, and he only came back this year. The rule of our prefectural school is that the ranking can only be promoted if it has been stable for two consecutive monthly exams.
He missed the monthly exams before, so he was naturally demoted to Grade D. Last month, he was promoted to 80th place. As long as he can keep improving and not fall below 80th place in the monthly exams next month, it will not be a problem to get into Grade B, and he may even have a chance to get into Grade A. "
Jiang Youzhen nodded, "No wonder he was so provocative right from the start! But why didn't he accept my challenge just now?"
"Don't be fooled by his big and strong appearance. He is actually very cunning and cunning. He would never rashly agree to a competition with you before he knows your background. Everyone knows this.
Otherwise, why do you think the students in the study room didn't make a fuss? It's because they knew him well."
All right! You have quite a few tricks up your sleeve!
Morning reading soon began. Jiang Youzhen sat at the empty desk in the corner and began to organize his books.
After learning the Four Books and Five Classics, the next step is to prepare for the provincial examination in August next year. The provincial examination includes the Four Books and Five Classics, policy questions, and essays from the Four Books.
Jiang Youzhen had learned policy questions before, and although it was only a short time, she still had some confidence.
However, the provincial examination is like thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge. Among more than a thousand people, only dozens pass the exam. Jiang Youzhen certainly cannot be complacent and he still needs to improve his policy questions during this period.
After taking out the books, Jiang Youzhen did not read in the morning, but started to do the examination questions from previous years' provincial examinations.
This exam question book was not easy to come by. In this era, the Internet is not as developed as in the past. It all depends on people to collect and copy it. Jiang Youzhen spent three taels of silver to buy such an exam question book, which is very expensive.
Instructor Qian Chongen was told that a new student named Jiang Youzhen would come to the study today, and he would be the first in the Wenxian County case.
As soon as he entered the study, he began searching and sure enough, he saw a strange figure on the last desk.
Among all the students, this boy is very dazzling and outstanding.
However, while other students were reading through the article, she was the only one writing furiously.
When everyone saw Qian Chongen enter the study, they immediately stopped talking and put down the books in their hands.
"I heard that there is a new student in the study today?" Instructor Qian walked to the table in front and looked at Jiang Youzhen.
"Greetings, Instructor Qian. My student Jiang Youzhen has just entered the prefectural school."
Before Jiang Youzhen came, he had already inquired about the personalities and knowledge of several instructors. There were also several teachers in the provincial school who assisted in teaching, and they were all very famous Confucian scholars.
"Since you have entered the prefectural school, you must follow the rules of the prefectural school. Learning is like climbing a mountain. Although you have a great reputation, you still need to be modest and humble, and keep making progress!"
"Yes! I will follow your instructions!"
Jiang Youzhen's humble attitude made Qian Chongen very satisfied.
"You are enrolled midway, so you must catch up with the progress of your fellow brothers as soon as possible. You must remember the content of today's lecture, and I will teach you later." Qian Chongen asked Jiang Youzhen to sit down and did not look at Jiang Youzhen differently.
Jiang Youzhen didn't take it seriously and started listening to the class after sitting down.
Qian Chongen was knowledgeable and his lectures were humorous. He quoted from classics and everyone listened with great interest.
He also explained two example essays from the Four Books in previous years' provincial examinations, and Jiang Youzhen gained something after listening to them.
During the break, Jiang Youzhen asked Zhong Wende to borrow his previous notes on example questions.
Zhong Wende was reluctant but still lent his notes to Jiang Youzhen.
You can tell a person’s character by his handwriting! Jiang Youzhen saw Zhong Wende’s handwriting, which was round on the outside and square on the inside, with the strokes hiding their sharp edges. Maybe Zhong Wende’s appearance is very deceptive, but he actually knows how to hide his sharpness.
"My handwriting is not good and my notes are not detailed either. Please bear with me!" Zhong Wende felt a little embarrassed. If he had known that someone would borrow his notes, he would have copied them carefully.
Jiang Youzhen smiled slightly, "It's already very detailed. Senior brother's handwriting is also good. It looks very fresh and neat. It's true that you can tell a person by his handwriting!"
She didn't lie about this, it was true! The baby-faced senior brother looked very clean and made people feel good about him.
Zhong Wende immediately leaned over to look at Jiang Youzhen's words. He was speechless after seeing them. Why did he feel that Jiang Youzhen was mocking him?
"It's obvious that my junior brother's calligraphy is the best, with strong strokes and pen that can be seen through the paper. It's simply a work of art. I feel embarrassed by your praise. I feel like I'm just showing off my skills in front of an expert!"
Zhong Wende really felt this way. No wonder he was the top scorer in the county exam! Just this good handwriting had already won the favor of the examiner.
"Humph! Flatter each other!"
There are always people who spoil others' moods when they are in a good mood, isn't it? Luo Sheng jumped out again.
This is what a clown is like, right? Jiang Youzhen just smiled and said nothing. The only way to deal with such a person is to slap him in the face with his achievements.
Zhong Wende curled his lips, "Like a fly, if you have the ability, you will see the truth in the monthly exam!"
He looked at Jiang Youzhen and said, "Junior brother! I believe in you. You must beat him in the monthly exam!"
"I'll try my best!" Jiang Youzhen nodded with a smile.
"Hmph! How shameless!" Luo Sheng snorted coldly, and then planned to go back tonight to consolidate the content of today's training.
He just didn't believe it. He had not fallen behind in his studies during the year at home. He even hired a famous teacher to teach him, just to make a splash.
Just wait and see! He will definitely amaze everyone in this monthly exam.
After teaching everyone, Qian Xundao came to ask Jiang Youzhen about his progress. When he learned that Jiang Youzhen had finished reading the Four Books and Five Classics and had also learned the policy questions, he was not surprised.
"I have read your essay before. It is very well written. I have also used it as a model for discussion with students."
Huh? Jiang Youzhen was a little surprised. How could he feel embarrassed? No wonder these classmates recognized him.
"But the shortcomings of the article are still obvious. Today, I will assign you a strategy question. Go back and think about it carefully tonight and hand it in tomorrow."
For students like Jiang Youzhen, Instructor Qian believes that teaching should not be too rigid.
Jiang Youzhen's foundation is very solid. Not only is the purpose clear, the article echoes each other, the parallelism is neat, and it is not clichéd. Just these are enough to win over most students.
What's more, her writing style is grand and grand, but it does not seem empty, on the contrary it is very expressive.
In fact, Teacher Qian likes such students very much.
But he has always been a reserved person, and Jiang Youzhen is too young, so he is afraid that Jiang Youzhen will be arrogant. After all, there have been many child prodigies in history, but they all ended up being forgotten by the crowd. Why? Pride and complacency are the most important reason.
"Yes!" Jiang Youzhen responded quickly, meaning that he wanted to guide her on her article.
Luo Sheng, who was not far away, snorted coldly. Coach Qian always looked arrogant because of his talent, but unexpectedly, he also looked at Jiang Youzhen differently.
Isn't it just because of her status as the county's top case? It can be seen that he is also a superficial person.
