Traveling through the starry sky just for you, I was a koi in ancient times

Chapter 354 Ceremony 2

Wang Jinyi noticed that the handsome guy she had been secretly observing was looking back at her, and she smiled a little embarrassedly.

Fu Jiezhi smiled brightly upon seeing him, and Wang Wenbin, who was sitting next to him, introduced him:

"That's my cousin. She built this school with her own money."

"Herself? Only her?"

"Well, this is the money she made from publishing the storybooks. She was willing to help others and did a lot of things."

"She also writes storybooks? It seems that there is a young master in the Wang family who writes storybooks quite well."

Fu Jiezi asked tentatively

"Which book?"

"It's called The Knight's Ode."

"Oh, she wrote that book."

"What, is it her?"

Fu Jiezhi didn't realize that his voice had involuntarily risen twice, causing General Fu in the front row to turn around and glare at him.

Fu Jiezhi was stunned for a moment and shrank back slightly, but he still couldn't believe his ears.

The fact that a girl could donate money to build a school on her own broke Fu Jiezi's original preconceived impression of girls.

He was still conflicted: Was she the one who wrote the opening words and left after the mission was completed? The book "Xia Ke Xing" was actually written by a little girl? Why did it feel so unreal? He must ask in person when he had the chance.

Fu Jiezhi made up his mind. He turned his head to glance at the girl, who nodded at him with a smile. He smiled in response.

Wang Jinyi smiled and nodded in the moment when he was stunned, thinking: I should keep a low profile, my image! I have to protect my image.

Wang Wenbin added a comment to Wang Jinyi: "In fact, my cousin has been very smart since she was young. Some people say that she can memorize everything she hears. I heard that she started writing storybooks at the age of three, and she can also compile her own poetry collection..."

Fu Jiezhi listened to such boasting and wondered suspiciously whether the Wang family was deliberately trying to flatter their girl and create hype for her.

So he used his hand to calm Wang Wendong down, and everyone looked at the headmaster intently. The opening ceremony began.

The entire school yard and the playground were silent. Sanshan cleared his throat and said loudly:

"Dress properly?"

All the students under the podium were wearing blue bachelor's gowns (also called Qingjin), and they stood straight, with the teachers helping them to straighten their clothes one by one.

After the end, the headmaster said loudly:

"Perform the apprenticeship ceremony?"

The schoolchildren stood in a line and walked towards the tablet of the great sage Confucius. Today the school hung a portrait of Confucius. The students kowtowed to the great sage Confucius in turn, then bowed to the principal, and then bowed three times to the teacher.

After the ceremony, the headmaster spoke again in a loud voice:

"Clean hands and a clean heart?"

Under the guidance of the teacher, the students washed their hands in the basin, implying that from now on their hearts and hands would be pure, and they would concentrate on their studies without distractions.

"Open your pen."

Teachers would use cinnabar to draw a red mole between the eyebrows of their students, which meant to open their wisdom.

Then the drum is beaten wisely, warning students to pay attention to studying;

Then they symbolically pick up the pen and trace the red characters, which means that the students have started writing. This is the first word they write when they enter school.

The whole process was solemn and dignified on and off the stage, and everyone was filled with reverence.

Wang Jinyi thought: This is the difference between ancient people and modern people. They worship and respect knowledge, unlike modern people who think that learning can be fun.

In my mind, the level of learning has been raised to a higher level.

At the end of the ceremony, the headmaster led the students in reciting "Learning". Everyone stood up and recited Confucius' famous work aloud.

The end of the entrance ceremony is also a time when students are excited.

The teachers took their students into their own classrooms, and the guests on the stage came down from the rostrum.

The elder of the clan specially introduced Wang Jinyi to General Fu Lei, "It was this child who wanted to help the children of soldiers. She invested money to open this school and also set up a workshop in Beining Prefecture..."

General Fu was just being polite and nodded slightly to the girl from a distance, but after hearing this, he looked Wang Jinyi up and down.

He stepped forward and saluted, "Fu Lei would like to express his gratitude to Miss Wang for her kindness on behalf of the injured soldiers."

Seeing his father perform such a great ceremony, Fu Jiezhi quickly walked behind his father and also saluted with his hands crossed.

Wang Jinyi was so nervous when she saw this that she didn't know what to do. She took a few quick steps and was about to lend a hand to support him, but then she remembered that physical contact between men and women is not allowed, so she looked around.

The elders stepped forward to support the two generals at the same time, "Hey, she is still a youngster. You are using such a great gift to kill her. She is a child and cannot bear it..."

Fu Lei clapped the hands of the elders excitedly and said, "No, no, no, people say that a general's success is the result of the sacrifice of thousands of lives. They all think that my military exploits were won at the cost of human lives. I don't care about people's evaluation.

As long as anyone still remembers the dead soldiers and the countless families left behind..."

Fu Jiezi also hurried to help his father and said, "Thank you, Miss Wang."

Wang Jinyi didn't know how to respond to such high evaluation, and waved his hands repeatedly and said:

"I am just a person with a conscience. People with a conscience will remember who brought us peaceful days. This is what I should do. No need to thank me."

Fu Lei looked up at Wang Jiagao in his heart, and Fu Jiezhi looked up at the little girl in front of him again.

The warm sunlight sprinkled on her, casting a soft halo on her rosy face and making her smile warm.

As Fu Jiezhi read on, he became a little distracted, still thinking about "The Knight-errant".

"Brother Fu, Brother Fu?" Wang Wenbin gently nudged Fu Jiezhi with his elbow.

"Ah? What's wrong?" Fu Jiezhi came back to his senses and smiled awkwardly.

Wang Wenbin asked, "Do you have anything to ask my cousin?"

Fu Jiezhi saw that he had an opportunity and asked quickly, "Can I have a few words with her?"

Seeing Wang Wenbin looking at him with scrutiny, Fu Jiezhi quickly explained:

"I just want to know how she came up with those ambitious words in the book!"

Wang Jinyi was sighing in her heart about General Fu's feelings when she heard someone calling her softly, "Cousin, Xunyang cousin."

Turning around, he saw Wang Wenbin and Fu Jiezhi standing together, so he pulled his mother, and the two Feng sisters behind him stopped together.

"Well, I...I want to ask you about the opening words of "Xia Ke Xing". I really didn't expect that such a heroic and majestic work could be written by Miss."

Fu Jiezhi said frankly.

Wang Jinyi said casually: "This poem is not my work. I have seen it written by a gentleman named Li Bai.

Zhao Keman and Hu Ying, Wu Goushuang Xueming.

The silver saddle illuminates the white horse, rustling like a meteor.

Kill ten people in ten steps, and stay in a thousand miles.

Hello.

......"

Fu Jiezi repeated the poem attentively, "The silver saddle shines on the white horse, which gallops like a shooting star."

He chuckled and said, "I admire you."

Wang Jinyi didn't understand the deep meaning of Fu Jiezhi's words "I admire you", and looked up at his expression.
