After the host and guest were seated, Wu Sidao tasted several sips of Biluochun and couldn't help but praise: "This tea is so fragrant. I have never drunk it before."
Yuzhu didn't want to show off, so he simply introduced: "This tea was given by my aunt, so it's fine."
After all, Wu Sidao was only eighteen years old, and he was far from the veteran who had been in the society for many years. He also didn't realize that Yuzhu's aunt was actually the imperial concubine Tong Jia in the palace.
Soon, several cooks worked together to prepare a table of delicious dishes to go with the wine and set them on the large round table.
Yuzhu invited Wu Sidao to the table, but Lin Yaner never showed up again, leaving Hanshuang to pour the wine from a pot.
Wu Sidao really wanted to pay attention to his image, but the problem was that he had been hungry for a day and a half and he really couldn't pretend.
Yuzhu couldn't help but smile when he saw Wu Sidao picking up vegetables with chopsticks one after another. He couldn't even eat enough, so he obviously had no money in his pocket.
"Here, let's have a drink." Yuzhu could drink a thousand cups without getting drunk. Under his deliberate drinking, Wu Sidao quickly slipped under the table.
Yuzhu ordered people to clean up a guest room, and then asked the servants to carry Wu Sidao and lie down on the big bed in the guest room.
How should I put it? The main reason why kindness turns into hatred is due to the arrogant attitude of the benefactor.
Yuzhu was very thoughtful. If he explicitly let Wu Sidao live under the same roof with him, he would be afraid of hurting Wu Sidao's self-esteem.
Therefore, Yuzhu adopted a roundabout tactic and deliberately made Wu Sidao drunk, letting him stay in the guest room first, and then sublet the guest room to him.
That's right, it's subletting, not living for free.
Most of the scholars in this era are arrogant and arrogant. They are so poor that they want to sell their wives, but they still pretend to have a strong backbone. They do it very well! んttps://www.
It is the basic principle of Yuzhu to help people in need rather than to help those in need.
Wu Sidao is a really capable guy. He has always grasped the thoughts of Fourth Elder Brother Yinzhen very accurately. This is what Yuzhu needs most.
In the evening, Yuzhu was writing questions in the study. Wu Jiang came to report, and Mr. Wu woke up.
Yuzhu followed Wu Jiang to visit Wu Sidao.
As soon as they met, Wu Sidao cupped his hands and said, "Brother Yu is really ashamed. He is too greedy."
Yuzhu smiled slightly and said: "In fact, I often get drunk, so what am I afraid of? After drinking too much, I just lie down on the bed and don't know everything. I snore and fall asleep. How wonderful it is!"
Wu Sidao was too embarrassed to continue disturbing Yuzhu, so he handed over his hand and said, "I still have something to do at home, so I'll take my leave first."
How could Yuzhu just let him go? He waved his hand and said, "It's so late and it's dark outside. If you sprain your foot, won't it delay your homework? You can just rest here without any worries."
After all, Wu Sidao is a shameless person. He still wanted to struggle to refuse, but before he could open his mouth, he was blocked by Yuzhu.
"To tell you the truth, I have a brother, but I have never met him, and he has never taken the initiative to see me. Alas, I am really lonely. Since you and I hit it off at first sight, why not do this, we brothers
How about we just live together and share the rent?"
Yuzhu's proposal can be said to be comprehensive and watertight, fully taking care of Wu Sidao's face and dignity.
As soon as Wu Sidao heard this, he understood that Yuzhu had actually seen through his lack of money and wanted to give him a hand.
"Well, to be fair, my dear brother, I am a bit helpless for the time being, so I will have to pay double the rent in the future."
Wu Sidao was secretly grateful. Fortunately, Yuzhu said he would share the rent. Otherwise, wouldn't he be a freeloader?
Since Wu Sidao agreed to stay, Yuzhu simply solved the problem of Wu Sidao's food.
Four dishes and one soup for each meal, three meals a day, a total of fifty cash, which will be given on credit temporarily and will be given together later.
Yuzhu's approach fully took into account Wu Sidao's face problem, and it was a temporary advance, not a pitiful charity.
Alms and advances are two different words, but their natures are completely different.
Since it was a temporary advance, Wu Sidao accepted it easily. He was not stupid, so he naturally understood that Yuzhu deliberately wanted to help him.
"I don't say thank you for your kindness. If you say too much, you will get angry." Taoist priest Wu Si bowed to the ground and was very grateful to Yuzhu for fully considering his dignity.
Yuzhu did not invite Wu Sidao to dine with him. After all, his family was extremely rich, and he had things for food, use and play that Wu Sidao could not even imagine.
The huge gap between the rich and the poor is an objective reality. If they insist on eating together every day, Yuzhu is worried that it will irritate Wu Sidao's sensitive nerves.
It's actually quite good to live separately now, eat separately, and move around separately.
The fragrance is far away and the smell is near. The closer we are, the more conflicts there are. Why bother?
Even if Wu Sidao is a white-eyed wolf, Yuzhu doesn't put too much emotion into it, so there is nothing to regret.
If Wu Sidao is a grateful person, he will naturally take action in the future without Yu Zhu saying anything.
Distance creates beauty!
After everything was settled, Yuzhu told Hanshuang to arrange for a servant to serve Wu Sidao nearby.
It was still dark, Wu Sidao was still sleeping in, and Yu Zhu had already finished his breakfast and led Wu Jiang and Wu Sheng towards the academy.
When the boy woke Wu Sidao, he heard that Yuzhu had left, and he couldn't help but be secretly grateful.
Where can I find such a reasonable brother?
The feeling of home is that you do whatever you want, instead of having to look at others' opinions no matter what you do.
Yuzhu's idea of making friends is extremely mature. The fair-weather friends he spends with every day are still fair-weather friends, and they cannot be relied upon at critical moments.
They are really sincere, even if they haven't seen each other for several years, they can still cut each other's throats.
This is transparency!
In the classroom, there was still the sound of reading loudly, and Yuzhu enjoyed this long-lost collective life.
After he sat down, he also took a book and read it aloud with everyone.
After reading a page of the book, Yuzhu regained the feeling of reading English early in the year, feeling fresh and nostalgic.
However, Yuzhu's accent was typical of Beijing movies, which was obviously different from everyone else's, so people soon noticed him.
This morning, Mr. Cha taught in person, and Yuzhu listened very carefully. He prepared the fine charcoal pens made by Hanshuang in advance and started taking shorthand.
There are not that many strokes in simplified Chinese characters. Yuzhu had practiced shorthand before, so the key points that Mr. Cha said were recorded on the paper one by one.
Schools in this era were basically cramming education. The teacher explained the meaning of the scriptures eloquently on the stage, and the students listened to the scriptures in the audience.
Except for a very small number of disciples, there is little interaction between teachers and students. In this way, how much the students understand depends entirely on their talent and whether their basic skills are solid.
At first, Zha Siting didn't notice Yuzhu's charcoal shorthand. Later, Zha Siting said he was done with it. While drinking tea, he accidentally discovered that Yuzhu was holding a strange charcoal pen in his hand and was taking notes.
What.
Zha Siting was curious for a moment, so he walked to Yuzhu's side and took a closer look. He found many typos with missing pens.
Who is Yuzhu? He is the head of the Shuntian Prefecture Court Examination. How could he write so many typos?
After Zha Siting read it for a while, he slowly figured out the taste. It was obviously not a typo, but a deliberate lack of pen in order to memorize his lecture notes.
Well, Zha Siting has taught many students, but this was the first time he saw Yuzhu doing something like this, so he found it particularly novel.
