The daily life of a peasant girl taking the imperial examination

"What else could it be? He's stubborn and felt that officialdom wasn't for him, so he resigned. Then he went through a period of depression, resolved to dedicate himself to teaching, and after several twists and turns, finally arrived in Yunshui Town. He used to be a spirited and dashing figure, but now... well, let's not talk about it." Wang Yi said indifferently, but her eyes betrayed her.

"He's already an official, yet he's willing to resign. Master Wang is truly extraordinary." Zhang Hao said with surprise.

If it were him, unless his family and personal interests were at risk, he would stick to his post no matter what, even if it meant his death.

Zhuge Yunshu was also shocked. Ten years of hard study, all for the sake of passing the imperial examination, and he just gave it up like that? What kind of blow could make a spirited young genius give up everything?

Although Zhuge Yunshu was itching to know the answer, he gave up the idea of ​​asking further when he saw that his senior sister Yi was unwilling to say more.

After all, it was quite remarkable for Wang Yi to be able to say such a long string of words.

Wang Yi deliberately revealed this information at this time.

In her opinion, this was not a bad thing, and she did not understand why her fourth uncle was hiding it.

Speaking out would actually make everyone respect him more and make the disciples listen more attentively, which is a win-win situation.

After all, even the county school had few graduates who passed the imperial examinations, let alone the town school.

"Master Wang is our bishop, and we must not reveal that he is a Jinshi (a successful candidate in the highest imperial examinations), or everyone knows the consequences," Wang Yi warned.

Everyone nodded in agreement, indicating that they would never tell anyone.

They're not stupid. If the news got out, the town's school would probably be trampled to pieces by those students.

Will they still be able to study in peace then? Will Master Wang still belong solely to them?

If Master Wang could hear their true feelings, he would probably be furious.

After a short rest, Master Wang appeared in their Class 2 of Xiaotian again, this time with the book "Li Weng's Rhyming Dictionary".

Everyone: "..."

What a surprise!

Zhuge Yunshu particularly wanted to complain about the person who made the course schedule at the town school. You wrote down all the courses you were going to take, but you didn't write down the names of the instructors.

Compared to the tension and fear of the previous class, the students of Class 2 were much more enthusiastic when they saw Teacher Wang again.

Master Wang is the most qualified to speak on this matter. He noticed that the students in his class looked at him with the same eyes that of wolves that hadn't eaten for days when they saw a bone.

Ugh, it's all because of his damn charm, he's always radiating it.

"Master, may I ask you a question?"

Wang Fuzi, who was still indulging in self-admiration, was interrupted by Zhuge Yunshu and became somewhat embarrassed.

He quickly adjusted his expression and said calmly, "Okay."

"Master, what courses do you teach us in total?" Zhuge Yunshu asked in confusion.

"Except for elective courses, everything else is."

Zhuge Yunshu: "..."

She underestimated Master Wang's true abilities.

The students: "..."

They were so lucky; the bishop was all-powerful.

"With so many classes, can you manage?" Zhuge Yunshu asked curiously.

Just how dedicated was Master Wang that he single-handedly took on the responsibility of the entire town's school?

Although it was inappropriate for a disciple to ask her master such a question, she was driven by curiosity and really wanted to know.

"Is it just your class? How come you can't handle everything?" Teacher Wang asked, his face full of doubt.

Zhuge Yunshu: "..."

The students: "..."

Okay, they're just overthinking it.

"Alright, take out the book 'Li Weng's Rhyming Dictionary' and get ready for class."

After saying that, he sat down and opened his book.

"The study of phonology and exegesis should actually be taught after completing the introductory books. These courses are usually arranged during the clan school stage. However, due to the backwardness of education in Yunshui Town, the clan school teachers basically do not pay attention to these, so it is normal that you do not know about them."

“However, if you want to stand out from the crowd, you must learn these things, especially the exegesis. Do you understand?” Master Wang said.

"I understand, Master. Thank you for your instruction."

Zhuge Yunshu hadn't expected that these books were meant to be learned during the early stages of education. It seemed that even the "Serving the Country and the People" system had its bugs.

"Host, please do not speak ill of this system behind its back. Bugs are an insult to us."

Zhuge Yunshu: "..."

This dog system will immediately pop up whenever you say something bad about it.

"How can this not be a bug? I clearly spent points to buy early childhood education books in the system's learning shop, so why did I get four fewer than I should have?" Zhuge Yunshu complained.

"After a system scan, it was found that your clan school doesn't have any prescribed courses. Can you blame us for that?" the system said.

Zhuge Yunshu: "..."

Well, she really couldn't refute that.

"To learn this book, you must first understand the content... You must be able to read it fluently and memorize it. Secondly, you must know the three main characteristics of rhyming songs: they must rhyme, have the same number of characters, and belong to the same category... Finally, you must appreciate the charm of rhyming songs. Once you have mastered the previous points, you can try writing your own..."

After speaking for about half an hour, Master Wang let his disciples study on their own for the rest of the time.

After a while, Master Wang looked at the sun outside and said, "Follow what I said before, familiarize yourself with it first, and write down anything you don't understand so you can ask me in the afternoon."

After saying these words, Master Wang assigned the homework for the lesson and then left with his books and ruler.

After the class ended, it was lunchtime. Zhuge Yunshu and the others quickly went to the first floor of Ya Shi Ju to eat something quick before hurrying back to the school.

It's not that they love studying, it's just that they have too much homework.

In the afternoon, I will practice calligraphy for an hour, then continue with the study of "The Great Learning" for an hour, and "Li Weng's Rhymes" for half an hour.

They had to finish all their homework before class started, as Master Wang wanted to check it.

Time passed by amidst the busy work of the students in Class 2 of Xiaotian.

Master Wang glanced at the hourglass and said to his disciples, "Tomorrow I will check what we have learned today. get out of class dismissed."

After working non-stop for five hours, or 10 hours, the students of Class 2 finally made it to the end of get out of class.

It was only at this point that Zhuge Yunshu realized the benefits of the system for serving the country and its people.

In reality, she felt like her body was about to fall apart after studying for just five consecutive hours, but she didn't have such a physical reaction even after studying continuously for a month within the system.

"Host, you are so lucky to have this system. Now you know how good I am!" the system said arrogantly.

Undeniably, the dog system has its reasons for being proud.

"Yes, the system is the best, the most amazing, simply the most magical existence in the entire universe~" Zhuge Yunshu showered the system with compliments without reservation.

"Oh dear, that's all, host, please keep a low profile," the system said shyly.

Zhuge Yunshu: "..."

She suddenly discovered a weakness in her system: it liked to hear compliments. Zhuge Yunshu decided to test it out.
