Chapter 47: Resolving Barriers (Overhaul Chapter)
Li Gang's house was given to him during the reign of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, and it has not changed over the years.
From the mottled traces, you can imagine that this house has witnessed everything that Li Gang has experienced from the reign of Emperor Kaihuang to the present.
In later generations, some people said that he was the prince killer and taught three princes in his Yang Yong, Li Jiancheng to later Li Chengqian, these three princes did not end well. It is inevitable to say that he is the prince killer.
However, in Ji Song's eyes, Li Gang was just a teacher with rich was rich in knowledge and understood ancient and modern times. He was called a great Confucian at that time, and he was a staunch Han nationalist.
But he is also rigid, especially when it comes to knowledge, and he is extremely Ji Song had flaws in his studies, he would point them out without hesitation. Oh, wait until you have fully absorbed all the knowledge of the predecessors, then come and talk to me about this.
As a result, Ji Song has been living in dire straits in the past few years, and any slight resistance will be punished.
In Li Gang's view, Ji Song's future achievements must surpass his own, and he wants to make up for all the mistakes he has made in the past with Ji Song.
He seemed to regard Ji Song as a beautiful jade that had not been carved at all, and planned Ji Song's future academic path. He must make his foundation unbreakable, so that he can reach a higher level on the basis of his predecessors. .
Ji Song went from complaining and resisting at the beginning to obeying and understanding in the end.
He understands the teacher's good intentions and why he wants to do this.
Li Gang was strict with him, but also tolerant. As long as it didn't involve academic matters, he would follow Ji Song in everything.
"Squeak!"
The sound of the door opening interrupted Ji Song's contemplation, and Li Gang walked in wearing court clothes with a tired look on his face.
Ji Song quickly stepped forward and helped the teacher up. Li Gang did not refuse and was not surprised at all by Ji Song's arrival. The concierge must have told him! "Why are you here at night? Didn't the invitation say to come back the day after tomorrow?" Li Gang said casually.
The teacher said it casually, but Ji Song heard the joke in Song smiled nonchalantly and said, "I don't need any greetings when I come to the teacher's house. I made a mistake because I drank too much that night. No, I'm here to apologize today."
"You, you, you never drink, do you think I don't know? But the teacher is very happy that you can come today." Li Gang sat on the chair, drank tea and moistened his throat and said happily.
After seeing the tables and chairs at Ji Song's house, Li Gang asked Ji Song how many sets he wanted, saying that they would be more comfortable to sit on.
"The boy was ignorant and misunderstood the teacher. I hope the teacher can forgive me." Ji Song gave Li Gang some new tea and said.
Li Gang looked at the closed disciple in front of him with satisfaction. If he said he had no utilitarian intentions at the beginning, it would definitely be a lie.
He also took a fancy to Ji Song's qualifications and wanted him to spread his knowledge, and Ji Song was a good successor.
As time goes by, I value my disciple more and more, not only for his learning ability, but also for his ability to innovate.
In particular, I value the latter more. Although the things of the predecessors are important, we cannot rest on our laurels and stagnate.
Chinese civilization flourished during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, merged with the Western Han Dynasty, and developed during the Eastern Han and Jin Dynasties.
But they have all gone back and forth in the wisdom of the predecessors, so that now, there is a tendency to become rigid.
Now, I and many of my old friends think it’s time to , the resistance is unprecedentedly great, with vested interests clinging to their own laurels and seeking only to survive, not to develop.
The superiors did not have a guiding thought and could only run in circles, so there was a dynasty change.
Ji Song's flexible thinking gave them great expectations, hoping that Ji Song would achieve success in the future and complete their lifelong pursuit.
Therefore, he was extremely strict with Ji Song's studies. He thought he would not last long, but Ji Song repeatedly gave him surprises. Not only did he survive, but he also did very well.
"I know that I have been very harsh on you in the past few years, even to the extreme, which has made you somewhat rebellious. But I am really happy that you can come today." Li Gang choked up when he said this. This made Ji Song feel even more ashamed.
In his previous life, he was just an ordinary person, the kind of person who would never be found in the crowd. How could he be so worthy of being valued by the teacher?
He knew what the teacher meant, but that was not what he was pursuing, so he could only live up to the teacher's expectations.
"It's the disciple who is stupid, no wonder the teacher!" Ji Song said.
"Alas! I'm too worried about the teacher. Everyone has his own destiny, and you have what you pursue. It's really inappropriate for the teacher to impose his own ideas on you!"
Li Gang sighed and said, his disciple is impeccable in terms of intelligence and other aspects, but he is a little tired and he doesn't know who he learned it from.
Since he didn't have such an idea, there was no need to force him.
Maybe he lives according to his own ideas, which is more suitable for him than the path imposed on him.
"Thank you teacher! I know you love me the most. I am happy today. I will make you some delicious dishes to honor you tonight!"
When Ji Song heard that the teacher agreed to his request, he jumped up with joy. He didn't know how he spent this period of time. He was almost crushed. He hid at home all day and didn't go anywhere.
Now the teacher has reconciled. This is much better than not refusing or cooperating. This makes him unhappy. As long as there is still time, we can talk about the rest later! Ji Song stood up and went to the kitchen to make food without even saying hello to Li Gang.
Today I must bring out some of my own special dishes, and let the natives of the Tang Dynasty taste the craftsmanship of our food-loving country.
He ordered his servants to go to Anxiang to get some seasonings, while he began to process the raw materials.
Sweet and sour pork, no, most elderly people can't eat too much sweet food. It would be bad if the teacher eats it.
Cold bean sprouts, this is okay; spicy chicken, but unfortunately there is no spicy food; pickled fish, this is okay; braised pork ribs, okay; grilled chicken wings, no problem When Ji Song made all the delicacies he could make using the existing materials, it was already completely dark.
"Dang-dang-dang-dang! Here comes the incredible delicacy cooked by Chef Ji!" As soon as Ji Song's voice fell, the whole room exploded.
"What? It smells so good!"
"Not to mention how it tastes, just the shape makes it appetizing."
"Not bad!"
Ji Song watched in confusion as the food on the plate disappeared quickly. Only then did he realize. His first reaction was: he had been robbed. Many readers said this chapter was a poisonous point, and Qiao Mu also felt that he used too much force. Now this chapter has been overhauled. We apologize for the inconvenience caused to everyone.
