1947 Early winter is a sunny day. On the way from Baita Temple to Chenjia Village, firecrackers exploded and people were buzzing, which was very lively. People are running around telling each other that students are celebrating Old Master Q's birthday today. At the birthday party, there are old people with spotted hair who are nearly sixty years old and children who are eight or nine years old. There are not only knowledgeable and world-renowned university professors and scholars, but also Mr. Murakami, who is unknown and makes a splash in the teaching field; There are both government officials with outstanding achievements and simple farmers who plow the fields. Although their academic status is different, they all admire "Old Master Q" and come here one after another. At the front of the parade, three elders were holding Endless Missing and Peach Blossoms are all over the world, and Gao Deru dare not look, written by Zhang Zhisheng, a famous Confucian scholar in Gansu, and Wang Zhen, a famous calligrapher (known as "Wang Tiebi"). The plaque of "Four Chiefs of Yingchuan are Human Thoughts" in Songbaisen Village.
This "Old Master Q" is none other than Mr. Chen Jiamo, a famous teacher of Hezhou Beixiang.
Mr. Chen Jiamo (1877-1960), whose real name was Yu Chuan, was called "poor and happy savage" and was also called "poor and happy" in his later years. He was from Chenjia Village, Baitachuan, Yongjing County. Several generations of farmers, poor family. When I was young, I was smart and studious. He studied under Mr. Li Rulan, a famous Confucian in Hezhou, and was familiar with the Four Books, Five Classics and Contemporary Literature, and was proficient in poetry and songs. And took part in the Imperial Examination of the Reform Movement of 1898 (1898) in the 24th year of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty, and passed the Scholar Examination with excellent results. At that time, the scientific research institute sent two plaques, "Mr. Hanyuan" and "Pan Xiang".
Mr. Wang worked very fast in his life, but he spoke very slowly. He is taciturn and indifferent. All his words and deeds conform to the norms of saints. He firmly believes in the old adage that "those who have virtue prosper" and "it is better to accumulate wealth than to accumulate virtue". He has been engaged in education all his life and has been in the forum for more than 60 years. He does not seek fame and wealth, nor does he crave enjoyment. He lives in the countryside and often calls himself a "poor and happy savage".
After being admitted as a scholar, Mr. Wang decided to set up a school library in his hometown to educate the children in his hometown with what he had learned. First, I chose a secluded place in the village, raised funds by myself, built several classrooms and made several sets of tables and chairs. Because Mr. Wang doesn't charge tuition for children from poor families, he pays voluntarily for children from good families and never asks for it. In addition, he is conscientious in teaching and loves life since childhood, winning the respect and love of parents and local people. People call him "Master Chen". Later, he was recommended to be a tutor in Dongfu, Xunhua County, Qinghai Province for half a year, and then returned to his hometown as a private school teacher of Mao Deyi and Haijia Temple. 2 1 (1932) The Second School of Yongjing County (Xumajia Primary School) was established, and Mr. Wang was hired as a Chinese and history teacher for nearly 20 years. Later, because Baita Primary School was established, he was hired as a school teacher and Xuan was appointed as the principal. Two years later, because I was too old, I resigned and went home. /kloc-in the autumn of 0/945, he was hired by Ma Weicheng (Hui nationality) in Hongyazi village to explain the ancient poems of The Book of Songs. A few years later, he was deeply respected by Ma Weicheng. By the end of 1947, I resigned and went home because I was too old and tired.
In his life's teaching, Mr. Wang has been tireless in teaching people, good at persuasion, and teaching courses that require students to be comprehensive. Ma Xu Primary School, where he has taught for nearly 20 years, ranks among the best in the county-wide unified examination every year, with a strong school spirit and growing fame. Students from neighboring counties and remote towns and villages have traveled thousands of miles, crossing mountains and mountains, and there is an endless stream of students coming to school to ask for readers. The number of students once increased to more than 300, which is unprecedented. At that time, foreign students studying at school often said when they went out: I am a student of Teacher Chen. The pride is beyond words.
Mr. Tao Li's 60-year teaching and reading career has been fruitful, and his students are outstanding, but few have achieved anything, such as agricultural chemist Wei, scientist Xiao, economist Wei and Wei, famous scholar and journalist Song, architect Wei Yongzheng, animal husbandry expert Feng Yongxiu, writer and journalist Shao ... Only in the mid-1940s did he enter the Whampoa 18 Military Academy.
No wonder, on his seventieth birthday, when he saw the enthusiastic scenes of students queuing and weddings, and saw that many students were willing to be as poor as themselves in education and get good grades, he couldn't help but learn from them and wrote happily: "He became famous at the age of 22 and soon worked hard with his tongue." In this way, after studying for 70 years, there are many students in the school. "
Mr. Wang is honest, helpful, honest, diligent in using, filial piety as a teacher, and benevolence and forgiveness. "A word from Mr. Wang is better than Jiuding", with lofty prestige and moral standards, to solve problems and make peace for the villagers. Where there are disputes and difficult incidents in the surrounding Shiliba Township, you can settle them by asking Master Chen to mediate. Because of this, in Hezhou Township in the north, as long as the names of the respected "Lao shifu" and "Old Master Q" are mentioned, people will be awed.
As early as the early years of the Republic of China, there was a dispute between Liucun Village and Zhamachi Village in Xichuan, Baita, Henan Province because of a piece of Yellow River beach with an area of 100 mu, and then it went to the yamen, which lasted for a long time. People from two villages got together to argue that a duel was inevitable. After Mr. Wang was informed, he took the initiative to mediate, break through, and treat it honestly and fairly, so that both sides were convinced. Finally, he rationally distributed the floodplain land to two villages, planting land and trees, each in his proper place.
In the Republic of China 18 (1929), there was a famine in Hezhou. Daohe County (now Linxia City) allocated a batch of relief food and sent Mr. Wang to the northwest mountainous area to distribute it to the victims. In the process of distributing relief food, Mr. Wang was realistic and impartial, and was praised by the victims.
In the twenty-fifth year of the Republic of China (1936), Liu, the governor of the county government, went to Baita Village to urge grain, and ordered his men to whip many people who owed grain, claiming to take them to the county seat in an attempt to ask for bribes. As soon as Mr. Wang listened, he argued, but he was scolded by the inspector in every way. In a rage, he beat inspector Liu with a stick and said, "I'm responsible for anything. I'll go to the county and say it." Inspector Liu's defense was poor and he left disgruntled.
Teacher Wang never talks nonsense and sets an example for others with his own personality charm. Educating children and grandchildren at home, not abandoning farming and reading, knowing books and being polite, has a long family style and is gentle and honest, and is called the wind village.
Mr. Wang has been teaching and studying for decades, and he has been writing incessantly. He has almost written couplets, but he has no choice but to learn that he was destroyed in the ten-year catastrophe. (
