Lost money is not ignorant of classical Chinese literature Mr. Luo Yifeng

1. Classical Chinese translation of "He Yue Lost Gold"

He Yue once found more than 200 taels of silver while walking one night, but he did not dare to tell his family because He was afraid that his family would persuade him to keep the money. The next morning he took the silver back to the place where he found it and saw a man coming back to look for it. I asked him the number of silver, and it was the same number and mark as the silver he found, so I gave it back to the man. The man wanted to give him some money to thank him, but He Yue said, "No one else knows about the money I found. If you want it, it's all mine. How can I ask for what you gave me?" The man thanked him and left.

When He Yue was teaching in an official's family, the official had to go to the capital for something and gave He Yue a box to store. There were hundreds of taels of silver in the box. Tell He Yue to come back and retrieve it when there is a chance. He left for several years without any news. He Yue heard that his nephew had other business and came to the south, so he asked someone to deliver the box to his nephew. He Yue was a poor scholar. He returned the money to others as soon as he found it. If he could not be greedy in a short period of time, he could be encouraged. But the official had sent the money to his house for many years without being tempted. This noble quality was far from the best. More than ordinary people! 2.

Tobe Lang Wantai originally wanted to keep him in a temple, but soon he was locked up in an empty room because of his naughty nature. Wan Sitong secretly discovered that there were dozens of volumes of historical materials on the Ming Dynasty in the bookshelf. He liked reading them very much and read them all in a few days. He also found that there were various classics books and read them all. After he was released, he would often follow his brothers and listen to their discussions. One day his eldest brother Wan Sinian was giving a lecture, and Sitong also wanted to participate. The eldest brother smiled and said, "What do you know?" Sitong replied: "After seeing what your brothers have done, I can easily do it too. "Arrived." The eldest brother was surprised when he suddenly heard what he said and said, "In that case, I want to test you." So the candidates were asked to take the Confucian classics subject (a type of imperial examination subject based on scriptures and sentences). The test questions were mixed together to test him. There were a lot of confusing words, but he finished them in a while.

The elder brother was very surprised. He held the test paper with tears in his eyes. He told Lang Wantai of Tobe about this and said, "I almost delayed my brother." Lang Wantai of Tobe was also shocked and said, "I almost delayed my son." From this day on , bought new clothes and new shoes for Wan Sitong. Sent to private school to study.

In the Wuwu year of Kangxi, the emperor issued an edict to recruit erudite scholars. Xu Hongxun, a patrolman in Zhejiang, recommended him, but he refused until he refused. The next year, the government set up a history museum to compile the "History of the Ming Dynasty". Xu Yuanwen, a bachelor of Kunshan University, invited his husband to compile history. At that time, the history bureau recruited bachelors and was given a seventh-rank salary, which was called the editor of the Hanlin Academy.

When Mr. Xu first arrived in the capital, everyone thought of him as his expertise was in history. When Mr. Xu Qianxue, the Minister of Kunshan, was observing filial piety, he discussed "Funeral Ceremony" with him, and they realized that Mr. Xu also had profound attainments in Confucian classics. So Minister Xu asked Mr. Xu to compile it. He has compiled more than 200 volumes of the Book of Five Rites. At that time, there were many talented people in the capital, each with their own specialties, but Mr. Wang was the most elegant and indifferent. However, everyone from the princes and nobles to the scholars called him Mr. Wan, and when Mr. Wang interacted with people, he only signed his name as "Buyi Wan Sitong" , never used another title.

An official who was escorting food and wages died on the road because he gave up the escort and ran away. The grandson of this official asked for a bribe to list his grandfather among those who died on duty. The gentleman reprimanded him and drove him away.

Several sons of Mr. Feng Zhizhong, a friend of the husband's father, were trapped in the Xunwei family. The husband ransomed them and let them go home. He does not show off and does not make public statements. He especially likes to reward and recommend juniors. For fear of losing something, he expresses his feelings sincerely in lectures (teaching formats, academic debate gatherings) again and again.
