Chapter 28 Su Family Academy

In the early morning, Chen Xiuping, led by Lao Li, entered the Su Family Academy, which he had heard about for a long time.

The Su Family Academy is located at the foot of a hillside not far from Jianghuai River. It is designed for tranquility so that these children can calm down and study.

This Su family academy is the Su family's own private academy. In addition to the children of the Su family, there are of course some outsiders with some connections, but not many people come to study.

There are several large houses, and there is a bamboo forest outside the yard. It can be seen that the plaques at the door have been recently replaced. In Chen Xiuping's eyes, the calligraphy can be regarded as the work of everyone. After walking around, it still has a bookish atmosphere.

The academy currently has a total of sixty-four students and five teachers. Eight of them are assigned to Chen Xiuping. The academy’s headmaster is Su Jingshan, who is a member of the Su family. In his early years, he still obtained academic honors and won the imperial examination. It’s a pity that

He was too straightforward to be an official and did not understand the way of being an official. He was ostracized by his colleagues and had to resign and come back. It happened that the Su family wanted to open an academy, so he became the headmaster of the Su family academy.

In addition to teachers and students, there are only some servants and cooks in this academy. There are not many people, but it can be regarded as a place that is away from the world. It is Su Jingshan's idea to rest every five days. It is okay for him and his students to stay here all the time, but

These gentlemen all have families, and they definitely want to go home to see their families.

It can be said that the Su family has put a lot of effort into this academy. In addition to the two newly hired gentlemen that Chen Xiuping had met before, there are also two old men with official experience who were hired with high salaries. Su Jingshan sometimes met some

Spiritual children will also be accepted as disciples and taught by themselves.

Although so much financial resources were spent, the students who came out of this academy still had no hope of taking the imperial examination. It is unclear whether it was the teacher's lack of effort in teaching or the students' dull qualifications. Although there were no officials, they still cultivated students for the Su family.

He cultivated many young people who could go into business, so this academy has always existed.

It was Chen Xiuping's first time coming to this place. Although Su Jingshan didn't interact much with Chen Xiuping, there was no discrimination in his words because of Chen Xiuping's status as a bride-in-law. Although someone who has been in the officialdom for so long has been squeezed out of the officialdom,

, but he didn’t commit any crime, he must be a smart person, and there is no need to do such a boring thing.

Su Jingshan took Chen Xiuping's knowledge into consideration. Of course, Su Jingshan, who had stayed in this academy for too long and had not been to other places, obviously did not know what happened to Chen Xiuping in Wangjiang Tower some time ago, so he asked Chen Xiuping to teach those children.

Some arithmetic and some basic Chinese characters are enough, and he will teach the rest from behind. It has to be said that Su Jingshan still knows how to be a good person, so that he will not offend Chen Xiuping's face, but also have an explanation for his children.

After meeting the children he needed to teach, six boys and two girls, the eight children who had just come to this academy were particularly excited. Chen Xiuping did not delay and started with reading.

After teaching for a whole morning, Su Jingshan came to teach the children to learn the Analects of Confucius. There was nothing to do here, so Chen Xiuping stayed behind and listened to Su Jingshan's teaching.

After listening to it for a while, Chen Xiuping should have understood why no one in the academy could obtain any honors.

The children were all around twelve years old, and they loved to play. Su Jingshan's teaching was fine, but too rigid. He explained it word for word, and scolded students who didn't pay attention.

It's just silent writing.

It would be strange if this can teach children who are willing to learn. If Su Jingshan teaches this, then the other gentlemen should also do the same.

Perhaps, if these children are really put into his own hands, they will still have the opportunity to obtain academic status. This is not Chen Xiuping's entrustment. Chen Xiuping has experienced modern and complete education. When he was young, Chen Xiuping also taught.

At that time, for the sake of his resume and the group of children who believed in him, he systematically studied education methods.

He may not be able to recite the Analects of Confucius with his eyes closed like Su Jingshan, and he can explain its meaning word for word, but he can use his own methods to make children interested in learning. In that case, the children will not
