This story is heartbreaking.
At that time, there was a poor scholar in Gusu City. His surname was Jia and his other name was Yucun. He was originally from . He was born in a family of poetry, books, and officials. It’s a pity that he was born in the last days. By this generation, his ancestors had no foundation and his family’s population declined, leaving him alone. Therefore, Jia Yucun is determined to go to Beijing to seek fame and fame, but unfortunately there is no need to worry about it, so he had to temporarily live in the gourd temple and make a living by selling words and articles.
Next to the Hulu Temple is a village official, and he is also a prominent local family. The family's surname is Zhen Fei and his courtesy name is Shiyin. couples are both calm and wise and wise, and do not consider fame and reputation.
Jia Yucun and Zhen Shiyin , because they live next door, they gradually get to know each other. Zhen Shiyin was extremely polite to Jia Yucun and repeatedly asked Jia Yucun to sit at home. Because of this, Jia Yucun met Jiaoxing, the maid of the Zhen family during a small seat. It was said that it was because Jiao Xing met her when she was picking flowers, and she looked back at Jia Yucun. In Jiao Xing's eyes, she did not take this strange man to heart; but in Jia Yucun's eyes, she thought that this woman had already had something to do with him and was a confidant in the world, so she was ecstatic and paid special attention to .
Jia Yucun pays attention to the maids of the Zhen family, which is a down-and-out man who desires to be recognized by his confidant and a woman who is willing to be; Zhen Shiyin pays attention to Jia Yucun due to the sense of responsibility of scholars to help the poor and the needy .
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Zhen Shiyin's family dinner was over, and he prepared another meal in the study. He also went to the temple to invite Jia Yucun to the study for a drink. The original text said:
Shiyin smiled and said, "Tonight, Mid-Autumn Festival is commonly known as the festival of reunion. wants to respect my brother to travel to the monk's room, which is not without a sense of loneliness, so he specially drinks and invited me to my vegetarian room for a drink. I wonder if I can bring qin to ?" After hearing this, Yucun did not refuse, and smiled and said, "Since I am in love, why dare to shiver this kind of affection." As he said that, he came to this academy with Shiyin. After a moment of tea, I had already set up a cup and plate, so there was no need to say about the delicious wine and food. The two of them sat back, and they poured their money and drank slowly. They gradually became more excited and felt that the flying cups were limited.
Shin specially invited Jia Yucun to a small gathering after the Mid-Autumn Festival family dinner. Is it just to help Jia Yucun relieve loneliness? No! Although Zhen Shiyin has no pursuit of fame and fortune, he cherishes talents and loves talents . In his eyes, Jia Yu Village is definitely not a person who lives in the underworld for a long time, and he will definitely have a day of success. Of course, he does not expect to benefit from the rich when Jia Yu Village becomes prosperous. Zhen Shiyin, who is kind-hearted in the ancient road, just started from "Yiyi and profit" , hoping that Jia Yucun can show his ambitions and live up to his talent and knowledge, that's all.
Shi Yin heard this and shouted wonderfully, "I always say that my brother must not be a subordinate of others for a long time. Now the sentences I recited have been seen... I can congratulate you or congratulate you." Then I poured a bucket of congratulations to you. Yucun sighed because he had done this, "...I just have no way to go for travel expenses now... I can get it by selling the words and writing articles." Shiyin didn't wait to finish his sentence, so he said, "Why don't you say it early? Yu always has this heart, but whenever he meets his brother, he doesn't talk about it, so I dare not be abrupt. Now that I am not talented, I still know . I also like to be a big contest next year. I should enter the capital quickly. In the spring battle, I will not let my brother down. I will deal with the rest of my life on my own, and it is not a waste of my brother's knowledge." He ordered the child to go in, and quickly sealed 50 taels of silver and two sets of winter clothes . He also said: "The 19th day is the ecliptic period. You can buy a boat to the west and wait for the hero to fly high and meet again tomorrow winter. Isn't it a great pleasure!" Yucun collected the silver clothes, but thanked him for a little bit, and didn't mind, and he was still drinking and chatting.
There are people like Zhen Shiyin in the world. They do not for their own selfish interests, but because of their sincerity, they are willing to help others unconditionally, hoping that they can live a better life and have greater development. Such people are completely different from the helpful behaviors carried out by the " exquisite egoist " cultivated by some universities today. The former is selfless when helping others; while the latter is ultimately to satisfy the selfish interests that cannot be told.
After Zhen Shiyin and Jia Yucun had enough food and meals, Shiyin sent Yucun and went back to his room to sleep. The next day, the red sun was just over three o'clock. After waking up, he still felt that he was not good at dealing with things. He wanted to write a letter of recommendation to Yucun, so he could join a family to settle down. Unexpectedly, Jia Yucun had already entered Beijing at the fifth update and said that scholars did not pay attention to the zodiac and gangsters, and always took the matter as the key, and left without saying goodbye. Shiyin didn't mind after hearing this.
This happened during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and then it was the Lantern Festival.
Lantern Festival, Yu Shiyin's family was the first disaster. His family Huo Qi hugged Shiyin's daughter Yinglian to see the community spark lanterns. Unexpectedly, Huo Qi asked for a small explanation halfway, so he put Yinglian on the threshold. When he came to find Yinglian again, there was no trace. Huo Qi did not dare to go home to see his master, so he ran away. The Shiyin and his wife sent people to find their daughter many times, but there was no news. The couple cried day and night, both of which became sick.
On March 15th, Hulu Temple was frying food to worship the gods in the temple. She didn't want the oil pan to catch fire, and burned the window paper, and even burned a street one after another. Even if the military and civilians came to rescue, they had not saved the fire. The Shiyin family was next door, and everything in the house had been burned. Fortunately, the couple and their families were not injured.
It has come to this point, and Shiyin has to discuss with his wife that he will go to the farm for a while. But the flood and drought did not harvest, rats and thieves rose, and the people were living in poverty. The scholar retired and sought the second best. He sold the farm and took his wife and two maids to join his father-in-law.
Shiyin's father-in-law is named Feng Su, which is homophonic to "custom". Although his family is wealthy, he was already unhappy when he saw his daughter and son-in-law surrendering in a mess. He half-coaxed and half-earned to cheat Shiyin for some money, and even sarcastic. Shiyin also did not manage crops and did farm work, so he became poor. After a few things, I ended up in poverty and illness, sadness, resentment, and finally met a monk and Taoist, so I followed them.
After talking about Shiyin, I will express my feelings about Yucun again. Since Yucun received the silver gift from Zhen Shiyin, he got up and entered the capital. He was proud of his youth and was promoted to the prefect of the province. When I took office, the drums and drums were shocking, and it was very lively. It happened that I met Jiao Xing, a girl who was buying a line on the street, so I went to Feng Su's house overnight to knock on the door and asked questions. Finally, I exchanged money for the Zhen family to be a second house.
Yucun is an absolute treacherous hero.
does not say that he is favored by his former benefactor, but instead sends a toll to knock on the door and ask for someone for the third update of the night. The Feng family was so scared that " is each panicked, I don't know what ". Feng Su was only released in the evening, and Feng Su's words were intriguing:
"It turns out that the newly promoted great-grandson in our mansion, whose surname is Jia, is from Huzhou, has had a relationship with his son-in-law in the past. He just went there before us, and because he saw that the girl Jiaoxing bought a line, he only acted as a son-in-law here. I returned the truth one by one, and the great-grandson sighed sadly. He asked his granddaughter again, and I said I lost my lights. The great-grandson said: ', I should make sure to visit the foreign service and come back to .' He said one after another, and before leaving, he gave me two taels of silver."
On the second day, Yucun sent someone to send two silvers and four pieces of brocade to thank the wife of the Zhen family. Why did Yucun thank the wife of the Zhen family? Is it because Zhen Shiyin gave him fifty taels of silver and two winter clothes to take him to Beijing for the Mid-Autumn Festival? , there are at least a hundred taels of silver, which is considered as Yucun thanking Zhen Shiyin for his gift to him. , however, the money was not given in vain. Yucun sent a secret letter to Feng Su and asked him to ask his daughter Jiao Xing to be a second wife.
(Yucun) sent another secret letter and Feng Su, asking him to ask the wife of the Zhen family to be the second house. Feng Suxi was so angry that he wanted to flatter him, so he made a move in front of his daughter. He only used a sedan chair in the night and sent Jiaoxing in. Needless to say, Yucun was happy, but gave her a hundred gold medal and gave her a gift to Feng Su. In addition, she also thanked the Zhen family's wife for many things, so that she could support her and wait to find out her whereabouts of her daughter. Feng Su went home and said nothing.
If Zhen Shiyin was kind to Jia Yucun's property back then, after Jia Yucun lifted it up, he thanked the Zhen couple with silver and brocade. Although Jia Yucun thanked the Zhen couple far higher than Zhen Shiyin's fifty taels of silver, the affection in it was much less than Jia Yucun's love for him back then. For Zhen Shiyin's lost daughter Yinglian, although Zhen Shiyin said that " must come back from visiting the service" , he finally left this matter behind.
Later, when Jia Yucun was dealing with the case of Xue Pan beating Feng Yuan , knew that the trafficking little girl was the daughter of the benefactor Zhen Shiyin, and knew that the Zhen family’s wife and Shiyin’s father-in-law lived, but for the sake of her future, she was afraid of provoking the Xue family, so she never tried to make her mother and daughter recognize each other. did not tell the whereabouts of the Zhen family’s wife and daughter. He never thought that without Zhen Shiyin of that year, it would be unlikely that Jia Yucun would be now.
