Chinese Short Story "Wang Chong's Study"

Hello everyone, I am Daoxin, the little story I share with you today is "Wang Chong's Study":

Wang Chong was a native of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and he read and wrote many books in his lifetime, the most famous of which was called "On Balance".

Wang Chongqin learned to ask questions, and entered a private school at a very young age. But after his father's death, he and his mother were left alone, and the already poor family became even poorer, and he could no longer afford to pay for his education, so he had to drop out of school and go home. Wang Chong was the most sensible and best student in the private school, and the teacher liked him very much, and when he was about to drop out of school, he gave him several books to encourage him to continue his studies.

After returning home, Wang Chong went out to work during the day and read under the oil lamp at night. Although he studied very hard, because he did not have the guidance of a teacher, many of the difficult questions in the book were difficult for him to answer. How he wished he had a teacher to guide him in his studies! Soon, Wang Chong and his mother left their hometown huiji and came to the capital luoyang to make a living. At that time, the famous historian Ban Biao was lecturing in Taixue, and Wang Chong heard that he was very knowledgeable and always wanted to enter Taixue to study with him. But Taixue was a school that only the children of the nobility could enter, so how could he get in?

Wang Chong decided to go to Ban Biao's house for advice, but every time he was blocked out by the gatekeeper because of his worn-out clothes. Once, Wang Chong was about to visit the door again, just in time for Ban Biao to come out of the gate. Wang Chong hurriedly greeted him, and Wen Qian politely knelt on the ground and said, "Disciple meets the old gentleman, please ask the old man to accept the disciple!" Ban Biao saw Wang Chong's respectful and eager look, so he invited him in. After some conversation, Ban Biao deeply felt that Wang Chong was a rare talent, so he recommended him to study in Taixue.

With the opportunity to enter Taixue to study, Wang Chong worked harder, often asking Ban Biao various questions, and Ban Biao also carefully taught this motivated student. Wang Chong made rapid progress and eventually became a famous scholar.
