How to say ancient enrollment?

The enrollment notice during Guangxu period is as follows:

According to August of the year before last, imperial edicts were issued to stop the imperial examination and set up schools. The Academic Affairs Office of Zhili has compiled a notice in the vernacular to inform everyone of the significance of stopping the imperial examination and the benefits of promoting learning. Needless to say, in this county.

Master Zhu's family motto says that although children and grandchildren are stupid, they must read the classics, but now they can be changed to children and grandchildren who are stupid and must attend school. As the ancients said, there is no Zhong Ni, and eternity is like a long night. I am extremely illiterate, I don't know the meaning of words, I can't calculate, and life is like a dream.

It takes more than ten years to become a scholar, and all tuition fees must be at least six or seven hundred yuan. It is labor-saving and economical to enter school now. Even if you can't choose, your child has read thousands of words, understood the meaning of words, and learned arithmetic, which is very strong.

That is, he became a knowledgeable person in agriculture, industry and commerce, writing letters, keeping accounts, reading books and newspapers, writing and calculating. If you don't go to school, you can't read, which is what you call being blind with your eyes open and charming all your life. Now that you have children, who doesn't want to teach them to be adults? Don't regret tipping, so as not to miss a lifetime.

Ancient opening ceremony

1. First, get dressed.

"Book of Rites" records: "The beginning of propriety lies in correct expression, neat colors and fluent words."

It means "paying attention to etiquette first needs to start with your own manners, so that you can dress neatly, have a dignified expression and speak kindly."

2. Then, pay homage to the teacher.

After entering the school, you should hold a departure ceremony first.

Students should worship Confucius, the most holy teacher, and then Mr. Confucius. When paying homage to Mr. Wang, the students presented six gift packages (xiū) to Mr. Wang, which means dried meat. One bundle of dried meat is tǐng, and ten bundles are a bundle. The so-called six-ceremony bundle refers to six kinds of gifts given to master by disciples in ancient times.

3. Then, clean your hands and heart.

After the ceremony, students should put their hands in the basin to "wash their hands" according to the teacher's requirements.

The washing method of "clean hands" is to wash the front and back once, and then dry them. The moral of washing hands is to clean hands and mind, remove impurities and store essence. This is not ordinary hand washing, but I hope students can concentrate on their studies in the future.

4. Finally, "Zhu Sha Zhi"

Teacher Wang needs to hold a brush dipped in cinnabar and point a red dot between the students' eyebrows. Because "mole" and "wisdom" are homophonic, which means clearing the heart, improving eyesight and opening up wisdom. I hope students can learn it in the future.
