Chapter 22 Class
Old Dou Kangershou and his old mother Wang Yulian flew to the United States with Sachiko. The second sister-in-law and Zhang Yongfang also went to Metersbonwe headquarters for training on the first day after the National Day. The second brother One has to look at the hardware store and stare at the decoration of the clothing store.
Everyone has their own things to do, and so does Kang Qirui. Today is his first day of class.
The students have ended their military training and the National Day holiday and officially started their college careers. The freshmen of the Chinese Department came to the classroom early in the first class. After half a month of military training, everyone has become familiar with each other. Chatted.
“I heard that there is a new teacher this year?” one of the students said.
Then some students who were more informed continued and said: "Yes, the teacher for this class is new. I heard that he was also a student of our school before. He is quite young."
Chatting. As soon as the class bell rang, Kang Qirui appeared at the door of the classroom on time, walked up to the podium, and introduced himself: "Hello, classmates, I am your ancient literature history teacher this semester. My name is Kang Qirui. I also got my undergraduate degree from our school, my master’s degree from Hong Kong City University, and now I’m studying for Mr. Huang’s PhD, so I’m a student like everyone else. Haha, let’s start with the roll call now.”
The first class roll call is mainly about roll call. Let’s get to know who the classmates are. If they were called by name every time, Kang Qirui wouldn’t do it.
After the roll call was taken and everyone was confirmed to be present, Kang Qirui said again: "Let me announce my church discipline. First, you are not allowed to speak. If you have questions, raise your hands first. Second, you are not allowed to arrive late and leave early. More than 3 times, more than 3 times failed the exam.”
The students were waiting for Kang Qirui to continue, but Kang Qirui stopped talking, and the two disciplines ended. Now the students understood that they could not talk, but they could sleep. You can't be late, but you don't have to come. However, those who can get into Shuangyashan are all students who love to learn. There are basically no compulsory courses such as ancient literature and history who don't come or fall asleep.
"The above is my classroom discipline. I hope everyone can follow it. Then the formal class will begin." Kang Qirui officially began his responsibilities as a university teacher.
“The establishment of the Zhou Dynasty was a very significant historical event in history. This was not just because of the change of political power, which overthrew a dynasty and established a new dynasty. But because of the Zhou Dynasty In the process of its establishment, it underwent a series of political and cultural changes, which we usually attribute to the making of rituals and music. "
"What is the Analects of Confucius? Confucius often mentioned rites, especially Zhou rites. Confucius said, "I can describe the rites of the Xia Dynasty, but it is not enough to describe them; I can describe the rites of the Yin Dynasty, but there are not enough documents to describe them." "Confucius believed that the Zhou rites were the most prosperous and complete." Confucius said: "The Zhou Dynasty was extremely civilized." In his opinion, the Xia and Shang Dynasties were the most prosperous. The rituals of both dynasties have now been lost, and there are insufficient documents. Only the rituals of the Zhou Dynasty were very prosperous and perfect, so Confucius respected the Zhou rituals the most."
"So what exactly are the Zhou rituals? It is mainly reflected in the system. On the surface, it is all kinds of etiquette and rituals, the highest political life of a country, and the daily life of ordinary people are inseparable from etiquette. ”
When Kang Qirui talked about this, a classmate raised his hand, so he stopped and motioned for the classmate to stand up and speak. The classmate first introduced himself: "Teacher Kang, I am Song Wen. Just now, Teacher Kang said that ordinary daily life is inseparable from etiquette." , It’s the 21st century, do you still pay attention to Zhou etiquette?”
“Of course, you know that you have to raise your hand when you ask a question, and you don’t get up until the teacher asks. Isn’t this the etiquette in ordinary life?” Qi Rui motioned Song Wen to sit down, and then continued to speak,
"Now we are a university. When you were in middle school, what would you do when the teacher came in? Stand up, then the teacher bows, and the students sit down "Excuse me, this is etiquette, right?"
"In addition, I have found that every time the teacher finishes class in the past two years, the students applaud. This is also etiquette and expresses gratitude to the teacher. In fact, It doesn’t necessarily mean how well the teacher speaks, so when the students applaud, the teacher needs to be self-aware and have a fearful attitude, right? When the students applaud me, I have to speak well and I have to be worthy of my classmates. This is also etiquette. Etiquette is not one-way, it is two-way. Only in this way can the relationship be harmonious.”
Kang Qirui will tell you about the use of etiquette in daily life based on practical examples. Won everyone's applause.
"Then there is music that goes along with the rituals, and music is music. But this kind of music is not for people to entertain and appreciate. It is mainly used together with the rituals in various ceremonial occasions." Kang Qirui started to talk again. happy.
“The first is sacrifice, offering sacrifices to heaven, gods, and ancestors. Secondly, there are various secular ritual occasions, major national events, interactions between people, and various activities in life. The country Needless to say, there are important events such as the emperor’s enthronement, military parades, etc.”
“Let’s talk about daily life, such as meetings between scholars and ordinary nobles, drinking parties in the countryside, and various major events in life. There is a wedding, a wedding, and a funeral after death. These are all joys."
"The joy at the wedding is like the meeting of nobles in the Book of Songs. What kind of music? Use "Deer Ming", Yo Yo Deer Ming, Eat Wild Apples. So what is the function of music? "
"What are the characteristics of music? It’s contagious. We have all kinds of emotions when we listen to music, and different people have roughly the same emotions when they listen to the same music, right?”
"Of course, it may be that because each person's life experience, appreciation level and specific practical situation are different, his acceptance of music may be different, but under normal circumstances it is unlikely that someone will suddenly feel happy after listening to a sad piece of music. "It is rare for someone to suddenly feel sad when listening to happy music. That is, when different people face the same music, they will have roughly the same emotions and have roughly the same reaction." "So why is it necessary for etiquette occasions. What about music? It’s just to make us have similar feelings. Isn’t this the way to unify everyone’s feelings?” "
Kang Qirui ended the first class with eight words. He was quite satisfied with his performance in class. This can be seen from the expressions and states of the students. Everyone was satisfied. Listen more carefully.
After class, Kang Qirui went home. That's what it's like to be a teacher. After you finish your class, you can get off work.
I just had lunch when I got home, and my sister-in-law Xianglan was also at home today. Recently, Pandan works the night shift. She comes back in the morning, sleeps for a few hours, gets up to have lunch, then goes back to sleep, and goes to work after dinner in the evening. It's still quite hard.
"Uncle Yao, I heard that the store you opened with Uncle Er and Yongfang is recruiting 10 shopping guides, right?" Xianglan asked after getting up and seeing Kang Qirui. When she came back in the morning, she heard that her second uncle Kang Qizong called the agency.
When the boss heard his wife ask this, he also helped him and said: "If you want to recruit people, Aruiqi will see if Xianglan can do it. She is working the night shift every day and it is very hard." In fact, the boss said I just thought about Xianglan working the night shift every day, which was different from her own time, so when would she be able to have a baby? I just want Pandan to change her job.
Originally, Kang Qirui was thinking about helping him open a store after he was laid off, but now that his sister-in-law asked in advance, it was not impossible to go to the clothing store to practice first. If Mr. Guang and his wife really open a store in the future, it can only be done through Xianglan's talk. Mr. Guang is too shy.
"Okay, it's absolutely fine for my sister-in-law to come to the store to work, but a shopping guide is not suitable for her. How about a cashier?" However, Kang Qirui did not recommend that Xianglan be a shopping guide, mainly because Xianglan is a shopping guide. Lan’s Cantonese is not good, and my sister-in-law’s aesthetics are pretty good, hahaha.
Xianglan didn't think there was any difference, as long as she didn't have to work the night shift every day. She didn't want to do it anymore. In fact, the real reason was similar to what the boss thought. Her husband is 40 years old. Now he works night shift and day shift. He doesn't see her every day. In which year and month can she conceive a child? Xianglan still wants a child of her own. People looked up at the bright moon and lowered their heads to miss their hometown. She lowered her head to have a child.
Seeing Xianglan nodding in agreement, Kang Qirui said: "Then sister-in-law will resign in the next two days."
Boss Guang and Xianglan looked at Kang Qirui in confusion. Rui, Kang Qirui explained: "The second sister-in-law and Yongfang will be back from training next week, and the decoration is almost done. The second brother and I have decided to open on October 18th, just for good luck. So the sister-in-law is resigning now. It’s almost done.”
“Okay, I’ll talk to our supervisor later.”
“Well, I’ll talk to the second guy when he comes back.” If so, Xianglan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She was embarrassed to beg Azong because she wanted to marry him and she was not very familiar with everyone. She only knew that Lao Wu was easy to talk to, and she didn't dare to ask for help from other people. In fact, after a long time, she will find that the Kang family is very easy to talk to.
In the evening, Kang Qirui deliberately waited until Xianglan went to work after dinner, and then he took his second brother Kang Qizong to sit on the patio and chatted about Xianglan's desire to go to the store.
"I thought the fifth young master was pulling me to say something, just this matter? Why didn't my sister-in-law say it herself?" Azong said helplessly, is his image that bad?
"Second brother, don't think too much, I just happen to be at home." Kang Qirui helped Xianglan finish her sentence.
Then he said, "By the way, Brother, do you know anyone who does advertising? This is the first Metersbonwe store in Guangfu, so we need to do some advertising to warm it up. "
"What is warm-up?" Azong didn't know much about it.
"I just told everyone in advance that there is a clothing store here with good goods and good prices. Come and buy it." Kang Qirui said simply.
"Azu knows someone from the TV station, just ask him for help." Azong thought about it and decided that he wanted to do some advertising. A store with hundreds of thousands of dollars is not something he can do casually.
