Chapter Fifty-Four: Master Juren
When Ye Jing and his son entered, they looked a little dirty.
However, the father and son did not intend to have any interaction with Deng Juren. They sat down after a party's case. When the old lady saw them, she wanted to say hello, but she heard Deng Juren say: "When it comes to Hangzhou, there are many famous scholars in Hangzhou. Deng is not talented, so she recognizes a few. Have you heard of Shangshu Wang in Hangzhou?"
Everyone was a little slow and didn't know who it was for a moment, but when they heard the word "Shangshu", they knew that this person was not simple.
Ye Song's eyes lit up and said, "I have heard of this person. Of course, he is not a Shangshu, but he has not been a Jinshi in the 12th year of Hongzhi. This person is very famous and once wrote a poem to inspire, so he became the name of Shangshu. It is said that he is now observing politics in the Ministry of Revenue and has a great future."
Juren Deng said lightly: "I am the same year as him. He was in the countryside examination at the beginning, but he expected that he would soar into the sky after that. Although he already had an official position, he often compiled books and poems with me and me."
When the old lady heard this, she thrust her face. This Juren Deng was really not simple, and all she made friends with were celebrities.
Deng Juren sneered and said, "Actually, what I admire most in Ningbo is naturally the Yang family in Yin County. The world's academic qualifications are so important. From Hongzhi to now, there is no one who is more loyal than the Yang family in Yin County. Last year, I wrote a book on the Yang family's Zhen'an Gong to recount the feelings of his fellow countrymen. He also replied, saying that although I am now a Juren, I don't have to rush to seek an official position. I should continue to focus on my career and encourage me to pass the imperial examination."
The old lady may have never heard of Wang Shangshu in Hangzhou, but she knew that the Yang family of Yin County was the real family of the Yang family. Since the early years of Hongzhi, there have been five Jinshi, Juren and scholars in the family, which has even alarmed the emperor. Nowadays, most of the people in the Yang family are in high positions. At the beginning of this year, someone in the Yang family passed away, and the court posthumously awarded him as the Minister of Rites to show his glory.
Although the Yang family's hometown is in Yin County, because the family business is so prosperous, most of the children of the clan moved to Beijing. Although there are people guarding the old house, they do not deal with local people. Even if the county magistrate visits, they will usually be turned away. The prefect takes office and wants to go to the Yang family for a while.
Unexpectedly, Juren Deng actually had letters with people from the Yang family.
The old lady's eyes were filled with heat and couldn't help but say, "Nephew Deng is very friendly and admires me."
Juren Deng smiled and said, "Where are, they are actually friends of gentlemen. Friendship of gentlemen is as light as water, nothing strange."
He seemed to be the focus of the place here forever. Ye Chunqiu couldn't help but think that this guy should be a light bulb, and he was still shining.
But... he was too lazy to pay attention to this guy, wasn't he here to have tea?
Ye Chunqiu picked up the tea handed over by the servant and was about to take a sip, but he saw Juren Deng discovering this action and said with a smile: "The nephew of Chunqiu..."
"Ah..." Ye Chunqiu looked up, but unexpectedly, Deng Daju, who was above and dealing with countless awesome people, would pay attention to his little child.
Deng Juren said: "This tea is the beautiful tongue I brought from Hangzhou. It is in early spring. I asked the unmarried girl to go up the mountain and pick the tip of her tongue. It was difficult to bake it several times. Therefore, this tea can only be tasted when it is seventy-minutes hot. Don't be anxious to eat it, wait a moment."
After saying that, Juren Deng paused for a moment, then continued with a smile: "The first time I had eaten such tea in Chunqiu, it would be okay if I didn't know how to taste it carefully, and those who don't know will not blame it."
The face was full of sarcasm...
The third uncle Ye Bai next door was going to pick up the tea and drink it. When he heard this, he immediately showed a little ashamed that the countryman had never seen the world. He quickly put the tea down quietly and pretended that he had never done such a thing.
Ye Chunqiu said, and took a sip. In fact, the tea was pretty good and fragrant. Ye Chunqiu couldn't help but say, "I'm looking at eight-minute hot and drink it."
Juren Deng was stunned for a moment and wanted to curse, "I have never seen such a vulgar person, but it is difficult to have an attack because of so many people."
The second uncle added lukewarmly: "Spring and Autumn, you must know the rules. You are a scholar. You have already participated in the college entrance examination. You may not be sure to get fame and fame when the list comes. There are many places to ask Uncle Deng Shi in the future. Being able to know Uncle Deng Shi is your blessing. Keeping it in the future will benefit you a lot. How can you talk to Uncle Deng Shi like this? Uncle Deng Shi doesn't think you are a concubine's son..."
Speaking of the word "如子子", Ye Jing, who was beside him, suddenly looked dark and he couldn't bear it anymore.
Ye Chunqiu knew what his second uncle meant. He raised Deng Juren and wanted to show his face in front of the old lady. What's more, he used Deng Juren's mouth to confirm his identity as a concubine.
Ye Chunqiu has nothing to say about this second uncle. If he had to say it, he would probably only say a bitch, just a pretentious one.
Ye Chunqiu smiled and said, "It's not that Chunqiu is rude. It's because Chunqiu has never seen any world, nor has he eaten any good tea. In fact, don't talk about good tea, even in this family, you can't even eat enough rice. Usually, you eat leftovers in the kitchen..."
As soon as he said that, the second uncle's face changed. Ye Chunqiu was revealing his background.
Sure enough, Ye Taigong looked suspicious and felt incredible.
Ye Song hurriedly said, "Who said it, it's like someone at home treats you so badly. You... are really useless. I am your second uncle. You talk to me like this? You still claim to be a scholar. Where do you usually study? I certainly know that you have passed the county examination and the government examination. This time, I am afraid that a scholar will be stable as a scholar, but no matter how good your knowledge is, what's the use of corrupt conduct?"
He pushed all the contradictions to Ye Chunqiu in an instant.
In his heart, Ye Chunqiu was born in a younger generation after all, and he was his uncle. As long as he bit this identity to death, Ye Chunqiu would be in a disadvantage.
Ye Chunqiu just smiled coldly and didn't want to pay attention to him. He was a human being for two lifetimes, but he had no habit of accepting it.
But when he heard Deng Juren suddenly say, "Scholar? You can't pass the Spring and Autumn Period!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall was shocked.
Can't scholars be born in the Spring and Autumn Period?
The old lady was also stunned for a moment and was a little unhappy. He felt that Juren Deng was a little bit crow-mouthed.
Even the third uncle is also indifferent to Ye Chunqiu, but after all, Ye Chunqiu is also his nephew. Ye Chunqiu has gained fame and fortune, and he can also gain some benefits. The results have not been released yet. What are you, an outsider, saying nothing?
Juren Deng looked at Ye Chunqiu and took a sip of tea slowly before saying, "Deng originally had some words that he shouldn't have said, but Chunqiu just contradicted his second uncle, so he was a little rude. Well, I'll just say it. I have a few friends in Ningbo. Although I live in Fenghua these days, I have had some letters with them..."
