Chapter Fifty-Fifth: Confident
Speaking of this, Juren Deng deliberately paused.
He is still very credible. Now he looks confident and the old lady is already a little panicked.
In this exam, except for Ye Chunqiu, the rest of the children had already returned in vain. The old lady put all her hopes on Ye Chunqiu, because logically speaking, even if the case in the court examination cannot be ranked among the top, it will almost certainly be on the list. In other words, even if Ye Chunqiu can achieve a scholar's fame. Deng Juren's words are astonishing as he can't help but feel confused.
Deng Juren continued: "Several friends in Ningbo are all officials, and they are well-informed and there is no mistake. When they came to study the book, they mentioned this matter, saying that the Spring and Autumn Period was inappropriate in Ningbo, and He Ti Xue hated it deeply. Several times someone mentioned the Spring and Autumn Period in front of him, He Ti Xue was indifferent and even showed disgust. When he was reviewing the paper a few days ago, he even talked about the affairs of studying politics with his friends, saying that scholars' knowledge is second, but virtue is the most important. This time, He Ti Xue was planning to strictly handle a group of unrestrained students and children. This matter has already caused a lot of storms. Who among Ningbo doesn't know?"
After hearing this, the Ye family was panicked.
The old lady suddenly felt her chest blocked, and Ye Jing was also a little confused, even confused, and couldn't help but say, "Why are my Chunqiu, how come I'm not doing properly? Who said this?"
Deng Juren showed a proud look on his face: "There are also news that He Tixue mentioned that the scholars today are ignorant of the world, and even get into lawsuits, and they are scattered everywhere, thinking that they have some knowledge and are arrogant. Such a child should be suppressed and take the exam in ten years."
ten years……
Deng Juren said that he had a nose and eyes, which made Ye Jing not hold the teacup in his hand firmly, and it fell to the ground in a flash, and water splashed everywhere.
Ye Chunqiu was also a little stunned. He was very well-behaved in Ningbo, so why did he have bad morals? Besides, he and He Ti didn’t know each other. What does he mean? Could it be because of Zhao Tongzhi, or...
Deng Juren was chatting and laughing, and took another sip of tea, feeling the fragrance of tea in his mouth, and slowly said, "Isn't it obvious that He Tixue makes these words? Spring and Autumn will definitely fail this time. Spring and Autumn, we are not just studying for fame, but more importantly, it is to cultivate virtue. You are young and if you make mistakes, you should correct it, especially in this family. You must not contradict your elders, otherwise He Tixue can't tolerate you, can others tolerate you? I am a veteran, so why don't you know some things? I remember when I was taking the Juren exam.
, I visited the prince... Do you know? That is the most famous figure in Ningbo. He was the first Jinshi in Xinchou in the 17th year of Chenghua. He was the top scholar in the Xinchou year. He was even more emperor's teacher. He was honored to be honored. Now he is given the Minister of Personnel in Nanjing. How noble. When he was a lecturer in the Hanlin Seminar in Nanjing, I went to pay a visit with all the students in Zhejiang. He taught us that scholars should make uncensored jade, simple and unpretentious, and they are introverted. They must not read some books, and they will not know that the sky is high and the earth is thick. This time you have fallen into trouble. It doesn't matter. From now on, you have to examine yourself three times..."
He talked about his awesome deeds, but at this time, no one had the heart to listen to them.
The old lady was in a mess.
Ye Jing was trembling all over.
Ye Chunqiu was also a little surprised.
When the second uncle Ye Song first heard this news, he was a little unbelievable, but when Deng Juren said so surely, he felt ecstatic. He had been worried about Ye Chunqiu's problem. Although he had confirmed his identity as a concubine of Ye Chunqiu, if he passed the exam for a scholar, once he gained fame, he would naturally have no right to speak at home. Will his status at home be stable in the future?
But now, God really helps me.
Ye Song took the opportunity to raise his face and said sternly: "Chunqiu, you...you...your father put all the expectations of this year on you. There is some ink in your belly. This is the truth, but how can you make a fuss in Ningbo, so that even the adults of Tixue hate it? You don't care about reputation, but the Ye family still cares. You are so ridiculous. From now on, how can our Ye family be human?"
Ye Song scolded him and secretly went to see the old lady. He saw that the old lady was so angry that her face turned blue and her whole body was trembling violently.
Yes, fame and fortune are gone, but even He Tixue has made these words. Everyone in the city knows that no one knows that the Ye family has no tutors.
Ye Song took the opportunity to continue, "Although you are a concubine's son, you are also a descendant of the Ye family. Now that your ancestors are shamed, are you ashamed?"
Ye Jing looked very bad, but he was still unwilling to accept it: "Ju Ren Deng was not making a mistake, right?"
Ye Song almost jumped up: "Scared, what is the identity of Juren Deng? How could he make a mistake?"
Ye Jing gritted his teeth and said, "I just don't believe in my family's spring and autumn...my family's spring and autumn..."
It would be fine if he didn't defend, but once he defended, he gave Ye Song a complaint. Ye Song sternly said: "Brother, you are my brother. I shouldn't say something, but today it's time to do this, it's better not to vomit. This Spring and Autumn is just a wild child. When you took the embroiderer away, the embroiderer was the daughter of a farmhouse household. What kind of virtue can a poor woman be? To put it ugly, that is, the eldest brother was blinded by her. Who knows what kind of child is? Is this child from our Ye family? It's still a matter of two. Besides, the eldest brother took him back to the Ye family. How many things happened in this house?
It’s okay that he beat Chen Liang of my family, but now it still brings shame to our Ye family. The Ye family’s poetry and books are passed down from generation to generation. Among the children, there are stupid ones. If they fail to pass the exam, they have never heard of their moral character. Now, our bad reputation has been passed down to Ningbo. How can we be a human being in the future? In my opinion, the Spring and Autumn Period will be humiliated, and it’s just a star of destruction. I just punished him for the sake of our Ye family. But my elder brother protects him like this. Could the embroiderer be the lifeblood of the eldest brother? For her, the eldest brother didn’t even want this family. Now for the Spring and Autumn Period, even the Ye family’s face can be lost?”
He was shooting while the iron was hot. Anyway, Ye Chunqiu's future was gone, so what if he had knowledge? Once he lost his reputation, he would even hate him. In the future, he would be afraid that he would have no future. If he failed the scholar exam, he would be a worthless son in the future.
