What is Chapter 36 of The Scholars?

Thirty-sixth time, a famous scholar in Taibo Temple, the birthplace of true Confucianism in Changshu County.

It is said that there is a village in Changshu County, Suzhou, called Lin 'an Town. There are more than 200 families in the town, all of whom are farmers. There is only one surnamed Yu, who went to school during Chenghua years and was a scholar for 30 years. He only taught in this town. This town is 15 miles from the city. Yu Xiucai never goes to the city except for exams. Later, he lived to be in his eighties and died. His son has never been to school, but he also makes a living by teaching. Middle-aged childless. The couple went to Emperor Wenchang to ask for it, and dreamed that Wenchang handed him a piece of paper, which read The Book of Changes: "A gentleman cultivates himself with fruit." After a shock at the moment and ten months of satisfaction, Dr. Yu was born. Tai Weng went to Xie Wenchang, so he named his newborn son Yude. owner

Dr Yu lost his mother when he was three years old. Tai Weng taught in other people's homes, so he took it with him in the library and opened it for him when he was six years old. When Dr. Yu was ten years old, there was a man named Qi in the town who invited a book from Mr. Yu Taiweng's home to teach his son. The host and guest got along very well. After teaching for four years, Yu Taiweng died of illness. At the critical moment, he entrusted Dr. Yu to. At this time, Dr. Yu was fourteen years old. Mrs. Qi is fair: "Yu Xiaoxiang is different from all other children. Now that Mr. Wang has passed away, I will ask him to be a teacher and teach my son's books. " Now I have written my own famous Qilian post, come to the study to worship, and take my nine-year-old son to worship Dr. Yu as a gentleman. Since then, Dr. Yu has been teaching in the Qi family. archaic

Changshu is a place full of humanistic atmosphere. At this time, there was a Mr. Yun Qingchuan, whose classical poems were the best in the world. When Dr. Yu was seventeen or eighteen, he studied poetry with him. Mrs. Qi is fair: "Yu Xianggong, you are a poor man. These poems about optics are useless. You need to learn two skills to find food. " When I was a teenager, I also knew geography, fortune-telling and choice. I've taught you now. Save it for emergencies. "Dr. Yu listened attentively. Qi Taigong added, "You should also buy two papers to read. You have to go to a school when you go out in the future, so that you can sit in the library. After hearing this, Dr. Yu bought some papers to read. 24-year-old, go out for exams and enter school. owner

The next year, a man named Yang, twenty miles away, hired himself to teach, with thirty taels of silver a year. Arrive at the museum in the first month and return to Qi's home for the New Year in December. archaic

Two years later, Qi Huangong said, "Your honor is in Japan, and now it's time for you to get married." At that time, I put the remaining twelve taels of silver in that year, and I will borrow the twelve taels of silver next year and get married together. The couple still live in Qijia. Go to the museum after the full moon. After working for two years, I accumulated twenty or thirty taels of museum gold, found four rooms next to Qijia, moved in, and hired only a little servant. Dr Yu went to the museum. The little fellow goes to the town outside Lisan Road every morning to buy some daily necessities and other side dishes, and then goes home to accompany his wife. The lady has a child and is ill, so she can't buy medicine with money. She only eats porridge three times a day. Later, my health gradually improved. When Dr. Yu was thirty-two years old, there was no museum this year. "How about this year?" The lady said. Dr. Yu said: "I might as well. Since I came out to sit in the museum, I have about thirty taels of silver every year. If in the first month of that year, I decided that it was only twenty taels, and my heart was not enough. In April and May, I will add two more students or come to read articles, and a few taels of silver will make up for this amount. If I had said more in the first month of that year, I would have said happily,' Well, more this year.' When something happened at home, I ran out of money. It can be seen that there is a certain, don't worry about him. "ancient times

After a while, sure enough, a family named Zheng in the distant village invited him to see the grave. Dr. Yu took the compass and took care of the ground for him. After being buried, the Zheng family thanked him for twelve taels of silver. Dr. Yu called a boat back. It was the weather in March and a half, and there were some peach blossoms and willows on both sides of the strait, and the wind was slightly downwind, which made Dr. Yu feel at ease. Then I went to a quiet place. An osprey catches fish in the river. Dr. Yu was lying on the window of the boat when he suddenly saw a man jumping into the river on the other shore. Dr. Yu was startled; Ask the boatman to save the man. He was soaked to the skin when he was rescued from the ship. Fortunately, the weather is still warm. Doctor Yu told him to take off his wet clothes and let the boatman borrow a dry one to exchange with him. Please get on the boat and sit down and ask him why he is so nearsighted. The man said, "I am a peasant family here. I have built some fields for them and collected some rice, which has been welcomed by the landlords." Father died at home, but he couldn't afford a coffin. I thought, what are people like me still doing in this world? It is better to find a dead end! " Doctor Yu said, "This is your filial piety, but it's not about dying. I have twelve taels of silver here, which was also given to me by others. I can't always give it to you. I have to keep it for a few months. I'll give you four taels of silver now. You can talk to your neighbors and relatives, and naturally everyone will help. You just went to bury your father. " Now he takes out the money in his luggage, weighs it and gives it to the man. The man took the silver and thanked him, "What's the name of the benefactor?" Dr. Yu said, "My name is Yu and I live in Lin 'an Village. Hurry up and do your thing, don't just talk and don't practice. " The man went to thank humbly. know

Dr. Yu has gone home, and there is a museum in the second half of this year. At the end of winter, I gave birth to a son. Because all these things were done in Qi Taigong's house, they were named "Fuck". Five or six years in a row. When Dr. Yu was forty-one, he passed the rural examination and came to see him off. He said, "Yu Xianggong, you are going to high school this year." Dr. Yu said, "How can this be seen?" Qi Taigong said, "There are many virtues in what you do." Doctor Yu said, "Old man, where do you think I have virtue?" Mrs. Qi is fair: "Just like you buried someone else's grave, you are sincere. I also heard that you saved the man who buried his father on the road. These are all virtues. " Dr. Yu said with a smile: "The sound is as loud as the ear, but you know it yourself, and others don't know it. Now that the old man knows this, what is the virtue? " Mrs. Qi was fair: "Finally, it was Yin De. You want to win this year. " When he tried to return to his home in Nanjing town, Dr. Yu caught a cold. On the day of the announcement, the announcer arrived in town, and Qi Taigong came with him and said, "Yu Xianggong, you won!" When Dr. Yu heard about it during his illness, he discussed it with his wife and pawned some clothes. Please send someone to register. When I get well in a few days, I will go to Beijing to fill out my confession and come back. My relatives, friends and employers will send some gifts. I went to Beijing to try cooking, but I never got into the Jinshi. know

It happened that an old Kangren in Changshu released the Governor of Shandong and invited Dr. Yu to go out of Beijing together. Living in the yamen, writing some poems on behalf of others, is very compatible. There is a colleague in yamen, surnamed You, named. Seeing Dr. Yu's articles and conduct, he is willing to become a disciple, live in a room with Dr. Yu and ask him for advice every day. owner

At that time, the son of heaven was looking for a sage, and Lord Kang wanted to recommend someone. Brother You said, "Now in the Imperial Canon, my pupil would like to ask Master Kang to recommend a teacher." Dr. Yu smiled and said, "I don't deserve this. Adults should recommend people, but they should consider for themselves. If we ask him, it will be immoral. " Senior Youdao: "The teacher just doesn't want to wait for him to recommend him to the emperor. When the teacher either sees the emperor or disappears, he will resign and come back, and he will see that the teacher is tall. " Dr. Yu said, "You are wrong again. I asked him to recommend me to the emperor, and I resigned. It is insincere to ask him for recommendation, and it is insincere to resign. What is this called? " Talking and laughing. After staying in Shandong for more than two years, I tried again in Beijing and didn't win. I went back to Jiangnan on the boat and taught the museum. owner

Three years later, at the age of 50, Dr. Yu borrowed a housekeeper named Yan from the Yang family to follow him, and then went to Beijing to try. This subject won the Jinshi and was tested in Di Mei Palace. The court will elect him an academician. I know that some of these Jinshi are 50 years old and some are 60 years old. They don't write their actual age on their resumes, only he writes their actual age: 50 years old. When the son of heaven saw it, he said, "This Yu Yide is old. Tell him to be an idle official! " Make up Dr. Nanjing imperial academy immediately. Dr. Yu said happily, "Nanjing is a good place, with mountains and water, and it is close to my hometown." I'm going to a place to reunite with my wife and children this time. I might as well be a poor academician. " Now I want to say goodbye to the real estate agent, the seating engineer and the villagers. Mr. Wang, an attendant of the Imperial Academy, said, "When the old man went to Nanjing, there was a noble family in imperial academy. His surname is Wu Mingshu, and he is a very talented filial mother. The old man went there to take care of him. " Dr. Yu promised. Pack your bags and come to Nanjing to take office, and send the doorman to Changshu to pick up your family. At this time, my son Yu Gan became eighteen and went to Nanjing with his mother. archaic

Dr Yu went to see Li in imperial academy and returned to the main hall. Students from the prison came to visit one after another. Dr. Yu saw a martial arts book on the post. Dr. Yu went out for a meeting and asked, "Who is Wu Niange who is afraid of books?" I saw a little man coming out of the crowd and replied, "A pupil is a martial arts book." Dr. Yu said: "I have long admired my brother Codon's filial piety and great talent." Please sit down after seeing him again. Wu Shu said: "Fortunately, the teacher wrote about hitting mountains, and his students got caught in the rain today." Dr. Yu said, "When I first came, I was always looking forward to your advice. How many years has Niange been in prison? " Wu Shu said, "To tell you the truth, my disciples are lonely and live in the countryside to serve my mother. Alone and without brothers, his disciples packed their own clothes and food. Mom is in Japan, so she can't study and take exams. Unfortunately, my mother met me, and all the funerals were due to the help of Mr. Du Shao Qing. The protege will learn poetry with Shao Qing. " room

Dr. Yu said: "Mr. Du, the elder brother of Xiangri, has read his poems on the desk of Senior You, and he is a genius. Is Shao Qing there? " Wu Shu said: "He lives in the river room of Lisheqiao now." Dr. Yu said, "There is another Mr. Zhuang Shaoguang, who was given the lake by the son of heaven. Does he live in the lake? " Wu Shu said, "He lives in the lake. It is not easy for him to be a man. " Doctor Yu said, "I'll see him tomorrow." room

Wu Shu said, "Pupils can't write stereotyped writing. Because I was very helpless later, I asked to go to the library without doing anything. No way, I found two books, learned two books, took the exam casually, and went to school. Later, these masters somehow saw the names of their students, so they had to take this as the first lesson and make up for it. The students' articles are actually not good. The second interview is always the first. Last time, a master took eight exams together, and his protege was the first in eight studies, so he was sent to prison. The protected person finally felt that his writing was not good. " Dr. Yu said, "I can't wait to do my present writing." Wu Shu said, "That's why my protected person doesn't ask for advice in the current language. I have written all the poems on weekdays, as well as The Book of Changes in Ancient Chinese and various miscellaneous sayings. Please consult the teacher. " Dr. Yu said: "It is enough to show that Big Brother is famous and convincing. It would be better if there were poems and ancient prose, so that I could read them carefully every day. Did your mother say anything? " Wu Shu said, "My mother is a good example. I came late today because it was cold at home and I didn't pay the fee for the yamen. Pupils are really guilty! " Dr. Yu said, "Why is it so late?" He asked someone to bring a pen and inkstone and said, "Brother Nian, you can write an abridgement." That is, he sent a book to the front and ordered: "You should finish this filial piety for the old lady Wu Xianggong as soon as possible so as to prepare a detailed statement. The right to use the house is all mine. " The bookshop promised to continue. Wu Shu kowtowed to the teacher. Many people thanked Wu Shu and said goodbye. Doctor Yu sent it back. know

The next day, I went to the lake to worship Zhuang, but Zhuang never did. Dr. Yu went to Jiangfang to worship Du, and Du met him. Speaking of Du Fu's yuangong, who lives in Changshu, once received a doctorate from his grandfather. Dian Yuan was a great grandfather, so he called Dr. Yu an uncle. We talk about the past. Dr. Yu also said that he admired Zhuang, but he missed it today and never saw him again. Du Shao Qing said, "He doesn't know. The little nephew told him to go. " Dr. Yu said goodbye. archaic

The next day, Du went to the lake, found Zhuang and asked, "Dr. Yu came to see it yesterday. Why didn't your husband visit him? " Zhuang smiled and said, "I refused these crowns. Although he is a small official, he is too lazy to see him. " Du Shao Qing said, "This person is very different. He not only has no knowledge, but also has no enthusiasm. His thoughts were diluted, with Boyi and Liu Xiahui above, while Tao Jingjie was a first-class figure. You will know when you see him. " Hearing this, Zhuang went to pay a return visit, and they hit it off. Dr. Yu loves the comfort of Zhuang and the elegance of Dr. Zhuang Aiyu. The two became lifelong friends. owner

After half a year, Dr. Yu will finish the marriage for his son. This childe is a granddaughter and was originally a disciple of Dr. Yu. Later, they became in-laws to show their love for Taigong. His father sent his daughter to the agency to get married, and another girl was missing. From then on, only children can have maids to listen to. After the wedding, Dr. Yu married the maid to a housekeeper named Yan. The housekeeper collected twelve taels of silver to pay the price of the maid. Doctor Yu said, "You should also prepare some sheets and clothes. These twelve taels of silver are mine and yours, so take them to prepare. " Yan Guanjia kowtowed and thanked him. know

In the blink of an eye, it was February. After Dr. Yu took office last year, he planted a plum blossom himself, and now he has opened several branches. Dr. Yu was so happy that he asked his family to prepare a table of wine, asked Du to sit under the plum blossom and said, I watched some spring scenery. I don't know what it feels like to be ten miles away. "When will you and I take the bottle to visit? "Du Shao Qing said," this is exactly what my nephew wants. He wants to invite my uncle and brother Zhuang Shaoguang to take a day trip together. "You know what?

Said, and walked into the two men. There are two people living at the gate of imperial academy, one is Chu and the other is Chu Xin. A surname is Yi. I have accumulated for several years and learned a lot. Doctor Yu saw the two men come in and sat with him in a funny way. Those two don't overstep Du's position. Sit down, set the wine and have a drink. Chu Xin said, "In spring, the teacher will have a birthday and give him a gift in spring." Yi Zhao said: "If you tell the teacher clearly, your protected person will make a list and pass it on." Dr. Yu said, "My birthday is in August. What can I do at this time? " Yi Zhao said: "It might as well. I did it in February and I can do it again in August. " Dr. Yu said, "How outrageous! This is a joke! Please have a drink. " Du also smiled. owner

Dr Yu said, "Shao Qing, I have something to discuss with you. The day before yesterday, it was reported in Zhongshan that there were martyrs in the family, and I wrote an inscription to fold a cup of silk and satin, with 820 silver as a gift. I entrusted it to you. Take this money to buy wine and send flowers. " Du said, "won't you write this article?" Why did you entrust me? " Dr. Yu smiled and said, "I am as talented as you!" You can do it. " Because he took out an abridged edition in his sleeve and handed it to Du, he asked his family to give the two pieces of silver to Master Du's family. The family took out money and said, "Tang Xianggong is here." Dr. Yu said, "Please come and sit down." The family gave the money to Du's servant and went in. Dr. Yu said, "This is one of my cousins. When I arrived in Nanjing, I let him live in several houses and he came to see me. " owner

Say that finish, Shang Xianggong came in and sat down. After chatting for a while, he said, "My uncle's house was sold because there was no money for half a year." Dr. Yu said, "No wonder you are. There is no business this year, so we can only eat at home. I have no choice but to sell it and come all the way to tell me what to do? " Tang Xiang is fair: "I demolished the house and had no place to live, so I came to discuss with my uncle and borrowed some money to live in several houses." Dr. Yu nodded again: "Yes, you have no place to live if you sell it. I happen to have thirty or forty taels of silver here. I'll take you there tomorrow and book some rooms. " Tang Xianghong can't talk. archaic

Du Shao Qing finished his wine and said goodbye. Two people are still sitting, and Dr. Yu comes in to accompany them. Ask, "What is the relationship between Teacher Du and?" Dr. Yu said, "He is a friend of our family. He is very talented." Yi Zhao said, "I don't know my protege. Everyone in Nanjing knows that he used to be a rich man, but now he is poor and hiding in Nanjing, specializing in cheating people. He has the least character! " Dr. Yu asked, "What happened to him?" Yi Zhao said, "He often goes to pubs with Nai as soon as possible, so everyone laughs at him." Dr. Yu said: "This is his romantic elegance. How can the laity know! " Chu Xin said, "It doesn't matter. However, the next time the teacher has any rich poems, don't let him do them. He is a person who shouldn't take the exam, and his achievements are limited, which may ruin the teacher's reputation. In our prison, how many friends can stand the exam, and it is good for the teacher to let them do it for free. " Dr. Yu said seriously: "That's not the case. Everyone knows his talent and fame, and no one refuses to accept his poems. Every ordinary person asked him to write poems here, and I was touched by his light. Now silver 120 Liang, I still leave 220 Liang for my cousin. " Two people don't talk, say goodbye to go out. know

The next morning, Tianfu sent a Guo-zi-jian diploma, made a bet and came to beg for control. The janitor and servant, guarding the supervisor in the concierge, came in to report and asked, "Sir, where did you lock him up?" Dr. Yu said, "Ask him to come in." This son, surnamed Duan, is from the village. He came in with tears in his eyes and knelt down to tell these grievances. Doctor Yu said, "I see." Leave him in the study for the time being. Eat with him every day and take out your luggage to sleep with him. The next day, I went to see the Taishou, explained these mistakes to him, and released the Guo-zi-jian diploma. Guo Jian-sheng kowtowed and said, "Although his protege is smashed to pieces, it is difficult to repay his teacher." Dr. Yu said, "What's the matter? Since you have been wronged, I should defend you. " The inspector said: "It is a great favor for the teacher to defend himself, but when the pupils first came to take charge, they were puzzled: I don't know what the teacher would do, why would the doorman ask for money, and where would the pupils suffer?" How do you think the teacher treats his apprentice as a guest! The protege didn't come to be in charge, but actually came to enjoy two days of happiness. How can I appreciate this idea? " Doctor Yu said, "You've been working these days, so hurry home and have a look. There is no need to gossip more. " Guo-jian diploma said goodbye. owner

A few days later, a red poster with full names was posted on the door, which read: "Born late, born late, born late, Ma Jing, Vicky, Millai was ten years old, Wu Sheng, Yu Kui and my nephew Du Yi nodded." Doctor Yu looked at it and said, "What is the reason?" Hurry out to meet these people. Because of this, there are different teachings: in the Pantheon, * * * watches over the light of gifts; In imperial academy, I admire the Lord of Sven. After all, what are these people doing here? Listen to the next decomposition.
