Small class education in elite private schools in Du Shoutian and the story of steel column family

Wen | Huixian Academy

Follow the footsteps of history and listen to the legendary story of Du family.

"Scholarly family, home of many scholars", "one scholar and twelve sons" and "five academicians of father and son" are all mentioned families, that is, the famous Du family in Binzhou. Du Shoutian's former residence is the property of Du Shoutian's father and many uncles and brothers. The Du family has been a noble family since the Ming Dynasty. By the end of Qing Dynasty, there were 12 Jinshi, whose family was called "Du Fu".

Du Shoutian was born in Binzhou Old Town (now Dujia, Nanjie Street, Bincheng District) in Qing Dynasty. Born in 1787, he came from an official poetry family.

Ssangyong knelt down to defend the teacher's dignity.

Du Shoutian tried her best to be a teacher. As a teacher of Emperor Xianfeng, he moved to Xi 'anmenmen Silent Temple, which is close to the palace, in order to teach in time, and didn't return home until three or five days later.

One day, Daoguang came to the study upstairs and peeped through the crack in the window. I saw that the little prince was punished by his teacher Du Shoutian. So he shouted through the window: reading is king, and not reading is king. It will be in the Qing dynasty soon. Du Shoutian was born in a scholarly family, and was influenced by the way of loyal subjects since he was a child. Hearing this, he immediately retorted: learning truth is a wise king, and not learning truth is a bad king. Unify the whole country and rule the horse.

Hearing this, Daoguang felt ashamed. He hurried in, knelt in front of the statue in the room, apologized to Du Shoutian and asked him to be strict with Yi Yi in the future. This is the widely circulated story of "Shuanglong kneeling minister". Du Shoutian defended the dignity of teachers with his integrity.

"Steel Column" shows Du Jia's integrity.

For a hundred years, I am upright, and my robe is still more than ten generations.

During the Jiaqing and Daoguang years of Qing Dynasty, the Du family not only prospered, but also became talented people, ready to expand the scale of their former residence. I want to buy a house adjacent to my former residence. Du Tuan, a senior official in Beijing, warned his family not to bully others, to buy and sell fairly, and to pay more silver. At the same time, he also took out the funds and sent them home.

Due to the reasonable price, all the relocated households have moved out smoothly, except one in the southwest corner, which is just surnamed. No matter how much the Du family pays, they are unwilling to move. They said, I just want to be a neighbor with a talented person like you. Du Jia hurriedly wrote a letter to Du Juan, and Du Juan wrote back: Don't make it difficult for villagers to repair their own houses. It's just that the surname doesn't want to accommodate and stay. This is the story of the famous local Dujia Courtyard "Steel Column".

The steel column house is just in the southwest corner of Du Fu.

Kejia top talents come forth in large numbers, and good family training is thought-provoking.

Here, traditional culture permeates every corner. Take the door as an example, there are Pearl Street Gate, Sun Moon Gate and Starfish Gate. Every door has a different meaning. Du family is prosperous and talented, breaking the custom of not being rich for three generations, which is closely related to Du family's good family style and family training.

Xiulou is the most complete courtyard in the former residence and the landmark building of the former residence. Built in the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, it was also built by Du. It is a two-story brick-wood building, where Du's daughter lives. There is a well called Daughter Well in the wing next to Xiulou, which was built in the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty.

The family instructions of Du family not only educate their children and grandchildren, but also educate their daughters, and attach great importance to their education. At the same time, educating people should adhere to the advanced consciousness of "lifelong learning and lifelong education", not only for themselves, but also for children's lifelong education. It is these advanced educational ideas and practical educational practices that support the brilliant situation of the Du family and the emergence of talents from generation to generation.

Du Fu's private cuisine has profound implications.
