Transmigrated as the Treacherous Official's Childhood Sweetheart-Chapter 105: Strict Teachers Produce Outstanding Students
As an open academy, the Imperial College allows both genders to study together in the same reading hall.
Etiquette cannot be neglected; it must be adhered to, not overly familiar.
In less than the time it takes a stick of incense to burn.
The Yulan Hall is already filled with new students, totaling thirty-four. These scholars are roughly seven to eight years old, their faces revealing a youthful and innocent glow, looking around at new classmates with wide eyes, full of curiosity.
Two people sit together at one spot.
Ye Zhi was assigned to sit with Tan Huanhuan, and she had a hunch that this arrangement was the result of favoritism from her father...
Qinglian Fairy was fortunately placed next to Su Qing’e, which was a relief to have someone to rely on.
Scanning around in a circle~
Not seeing Liu Qingxi, Xue Ling, and others, Ye Zhi’s heart eased slightly.
Fortunately, it’s not in Yulan Hall.
The classroom was silent, with no one daring to be noisy.
A teacher sporting a long goat beard down to his chest, wearing a dark blue cap and scarf, dressed in a silk gown embroidered with floral patterns, with just the right amount of wrinkles on his face, appeared about the same age as Dean Sun, approximately fifty years old.
The teacher walked to the top of the lecture hall, scanned around at the seated students, and began clearly: 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
"I am Qin Lian, and you may call me Mr. Qin. I have always taught with the belief that a strict teacher produces outstanding disciples. Now that you have joined the Imperial College, it shows that this is not a place for whims. You must listen carefully in my lectures; although many students have already studied elementary education, some have not, and I will explain everything individually. You must also learn earnestly and refrain from arrogance."
"As the ancient saying goes, Guan Yu lost Jingzhou due to carelessness, and overconfident troops are bound to fail. The disciples I have taught are numerous high officials in the court; even the current Emperor Jingping was once under my tutelage."
"Regardless of who you are outside, when you come here, you must learn the ’Three Character Classic’, ’Hundred Family Names’, and ’Thousand Character Classic’ from my instruction."
Qin Lian lectured extensively, hoping to subdue these little mischievous ones.
In previous years, it was challenging to manage newly admitted scholars, so the dean assigned him due to his often stern demeanor to teach the young students.
It’s truly a disgrace to his years of talent, having to teach the ’Three Character Classic’ and ’Hundred Family Names’...
Glancing at the little ones sitting below, good, very attentive~
It’s also quite worthwhile.
Qin Lian picked up a piece of black charcoal chalk and wrote on the white board, explaining the differences between consonants, vowels, rhymes, and mother tones.
He then wrote in small seal script, Han clerical script, Hua clerical script, and small regular script, teaching students how to recognize these characters.
When students are familiar and can recite them, he explains each sentence at the appropriate time, with later practice in tracing, copying, and writing.
The black charcoal chalk is similar to chalk but black, and it is used on a specially made smooth white board that can be wiped clean with a cloth and then rewritten.
Ye Zhi had previously studied with Mr. Xun, understanding most of it, and now revisiting it helps reinforce her memory and rapidly pen notes.
Beside her, Tan Huanhuan was unwilling to be outdone, writing swiftly and vigorously~
Shen Chen and Li Qian were seated at the same table in the front.
Ji Changzhou and Zhuang Zhengqing shared a table just behind.
The four were seated in a row, with two in front and two behind.
All were attentively listening to the lecture~
Time passed as the students were immersed in their studies.
Dong, dong, dong~
The sound of a bell ringing in Lingxiang Courtyard echoed into the ears of the dedicated students, appearing incredibly wonderful.
After a class lasting about an hour, even the best spirits become somewhat worn.
Mr. Qin had not yet left after class, as typically teachers would stay a bit longer, allowing students to inquire about anything they did not understand. At this time, many approached him with questions, gathering in small groups.
