In this era of door-to-door visits, it is important to send someone in advance to send a message to make an appointment.
If someone comes to your door unexpectedly without saying hello, it can easily be misunderstood as a night owl entering the house with bad intentions.
Yuzhu and Zhang Tinglu informed Zha Siting in advance, and Zha Siting naturally nodded in agreement.
On the appointed day, Yuzhu, Zhang Tinglu and Wu Sidao took the prepared gifts and took a carriage to Yu Hongtu's aunt's house.
When he arrived at the place, Wu Jiang politely came forward and handed over his name card. Soon, a young scholar wearing a brocade robe came out of the house.
"I'm sorry for the loss, but I hope you can forgive me. I am Zhang Deguang, also known as Youde, and he is Yu Linyi's cousin. Thank you three dear friends for coming to visit my cousin. I can't thank you enough."<
/p>
The gentle Zhang Deguang introduced himself enthusiastically.
The three of them, Yuzhu, quickly bowed in salute and introduced themselves.
"I am Wu Sidao, Shaoxing, Zhejiang, whose courtesy name is Yulu..."
"I have Tong Yuzhu of Shuntian Mansion. I have no words for the time being. Brother, just call me Yuzhu."
Yuzhu has never shown off his passing temperament. When he introduces himself, he usually does not mention the Four Nine Cities, but only Shuntian Mansion. Moreover, Yuzhu never mentions the Tong Jia family, but only mentions the surname Tong.
Shuntian Prefecture is very large and has many prefectures and counties under its jurisdiction. Yuzhu's statement can easily misunderstand others. He is just an ordinary scholar in the suburbs of the capital.
As for the Tong Jia family, you can tell that they are from the Banner people. And the Tong family is an authentic Han surname.
"I am Zhang Tinglu, courtesy name Baochen..."
"Oh, you are Brother Baochen, sorry, sorry." When Zhang Deguang heard Zhang Tinglu's name, his eyes immediately lit up, and his attitude became extremely polite.
Tongcheng, Anhui Province, became famous again after Zhang Ying, a bachelor of Wenhua Palace and Minister of Rites, became famous again. Most people at that time knew that there was Zhang Xiangguo in Tongcheng, Anhui Province.
"Brother Baochen, please watch your step this way, the road is slippery."
"Brother Yuzhu, please."
"Brother Yulu, please."
After each reported their names and origins, Zhang Deguang obviously ignored Yuzhu and Wu Sidao, but regarded Zhang Tinglu as a distinguished guest.
Yuzhu's mentality is very good. Isn't it true that he has never seen Leng Touqing in a harsh world?
Zhang Deguang lingered around Zhang Tinglu, fearing that he would neglect the distinguished guest, not to mention how disgusting his flattering gesture was.
Wu Sidao, who was born in a poor family in Shaoxing Prefecture, has much less experience than Yuzhu because he is still young, so he does not have as good a mentality as Yuzhu.
Wu Sidao curled his lips and complained to Yuzhu in a low voice: "You look down on others."
Yuzhu couldn't help but smile. Even if Wu Sidao deliberately omitted two words, who doesn't know that dogs look down on people?
The hooligans are not to be feared, but the hooligans are literate.
The literate Wu Sidao didn't even use a single curse word when he cursed people, but he was very cruel and cruel!
Although it is said that children from poor families have become heads of family early. In fact, children from poor families are either long-term workers in the family and have to do all the hard work. Or they are pushed out early to work as apprentices. The apprentices take care of the food and have no money, but
It can save your family a few bowls of rice porridge and wild vegetable porridge.
In rural areas, people eat dry food when they are busy and eat thin food when they are free. This has a history of thousands of years.
The biggest difference between children from poor families and children from rich families is not only their identity, status and money, but also their vastly different knowledge.
Children from poor families generally mature very late. By the time they learn about the unspoken rules of how society actually operates, it is already too late and the years have been wasted.
Faced with Zhang Deguang's snobbery, Yuzhu just laughed it off and didn't take it seriously at all.
But Wu Sidao insisted on expressing his inner dissatisfaction, which shows that his knowledge and emotional intelligence are far from enough.
Persuading people is never an easy job. You must always pay attention to the mentality of the person being persuaded and the possibility of accepting your persuasion to avoid persuading someone to become an enemy.
Yuzhu didn't want to stimulate Wu Sidao's self-esteem, so he just smiled and said nothing.
Based on Yuzhu's experience, the more you rely on others, the easier it is for your mentality to lose balance.
Damn it, don’t you rely on your parents to live a good life?
To put it bluntly, people's hearts are not as strong as snakes swallowing elephants. This is the root cause of Shimi's enemies.
Wu Sidao really has nowhere to go. If Yuzhu doesn't care about him, then in order to have a roof over his head and not go hungry, he will have to drop out of school and make money.
Unlike Yuzhu who studies hard, Wu Sidao is not a serious student at all.
With such a prominent family background, Yuzhu would sleep hard in the middle of the night, study hard, practice calligraphy, and concentrate on becoming a Jinshi.
Wu Sidao was so poor that he had no food to eat, but he slept in every day, trying to avoid being late before he rushed to the school gate.
If Jiuhua Academy hadn't been concerned about its good reputation, Wu Sidao would have been kicked out long ago.
However, Yuzhu did not look down on Wu Sidao like ordinary people. Because, with three hundred and sixty lines, he was the number one scholar in every line.
Some people are not born to study, but this does not affect their ability to play tricks when they mature.
Yuzhu is a person who wants to do great things. The sea is open to all rivers, and he is big when he has tolerance. The prime minister can hold a boat in his belly.
Objectively speaking, with Yuzhu's rich family background, what's the harm in raising Wu Sidao for a lifetime?
As long as Wu Sidao can help Yuzhu analyze Brother Si's thoughts at the critical moment, it will be more valuable than a million taels of silver.
Things that money can solve, how can they be considered a problem here in Yuzhu?
The problem is that matters involving Si Age cannot be solved with money.
As long as Yuzhu makes a wrong calculation, everything will be lost, that is, the whole family will die.
Yuzhu and the other three followed Zhang Deguang into the main courtyard to visit Yu Hongtu's aunt, and then were led to the guest room in the outer courtyard where Yu Hongtu lived.
When he entered the door, he saw that Yu Hongtu was leaning on a royal couch. Because there was a thin quilt under his waist, he could not see his injured leg.
"Oh, it's been a bad year. I broke my leg. I'm sorry for you, classmates." Yu Hongtu sighed for a while after seeing Yuzhu and the others.
Zhang Tinglu was the eldest, and Yuzhu just smiled and did not speak.
Wu Sidao didn't pay much attention and directly joked: "Do you dare to take a peek at the beautiful girl next time?"
Zhang Tinglu frowned, glanced at Wu Sidao, and then turned her head to look at Yuzhu.
Yuzhu noticed Zhang Tinglu looking at him, so he smiled and nodded.
That means that you, Lao Zhang, are the elder brother. If you don’t speak, it’s hard for the younger brother to interrupt.
Zhang Tinglu felt very satisfied. Even though Yuzhu came from a wealthy family, she was extremely polite.
Wu Sidao is so poor and ignorant of etiquette, he doesn't even know the superiority and inferiority. Is this really unreasonable?
In the officialdom, there is a twelve-character motto, which can be said to be a wise saying: It is rare to be confused, and all interests are shared, so don’t fight for idleness!
If Zhang Tinglu speaks first, can he rise to the top in one fell swoop and become a cabinet bachelor?
