2. The squire in Xue Jia Ji discussed holding a Dragon Lantern Festival during the Spring Festival. During the period, it was mentioned that teachers should be invited for children. Xia Zongjia recommended Zhou Jin, who is over 60 years old. At the banquet, Zhou Jin invited Mei Jiu, but as a scholar, Mei Jiu played a trick on Zhou Jin during the dinner, saying that she dreamed of a scholar, which was a good sign.
Wang took shelter from the rain and passed by the school in the village. He also despises Zhou Jin. He also said that he dreamed that Xun Mei, a student from Zhou Jin, was winning a prize, so he was confused. Zhou Jin is very excited. Therefore, the villagers mocked and called Xun Mei "Xun Jinshi", thinking that Zhou Jin did it, and fired Zhou Jin.
Zhou Jin and his brother-in-law went to the provincial capital to do business and passed by Hiram's Hospital. He was overstimulated and ran into a wall. This article reflects the phenomenon that scholars despise each other (those with high academic qualifications look down on those with low academic qualifications) and that scholars are mystifying.
3. Zhou Jin's brother-in-law and others took pity on Zhou Jin, and pooled their money to donate a Guo Jianzi to him, so that he could take the exam directly. Later, he was admitted to Jinshi and became a scholar in Guangdong. Jin Fan, a scholar, was admitted because of his pity. Then I was recommended in the exam. Xiangshen Zhang came to make friends, give money and a house. This article embodies the abnormal psychology of literati who are eager to pursue their official career and conform to the trend of the times.
Jin Fan's mother suddenly got a mansion and furniture, and died of excessive excitement. Three years after Jin Fan's mourning, Zhang Jingzhai followed him to Tang Zhi County, Gaoyao County, because the court ordered that the slaughtered cattle and beef could not be eaten.
It happened that the Hui people came to deliver beef, hoping that the magistrate of a county would not strictly enforce the beef ban. Zhang Jingzhai regarded this as an opportunity to "strictly enforce the law in order to get promoted", which led the magistrate to kill the beef delivery man and attracted the siege of the Hui people. This article embodies the sinister scheming of Zhang Jingzhai, an official and gentry, to seize people's fields, make a fortune and achieve the goal of promotion by framing others.
5. After the case of Hui people was handled by the Tang magistrate, two people came to accuse Yan, one accused Yan of robbing other people's pigs, and the other accused Yan of asking for other people's interests. The magistrate ordered the arrest. Yan escaped for fear of sin. His brother Yan Jiansheng sued for him, paid his own compensation and managed it himself.
Later, Yan Jiansheng's wife Wang became seriously ill, and my concubine was helped as the first wife. On the wedding day, Wang died of illness. Later, Yan Jiansheng also died. The article reflects Yan's overbearing, Zhao's calculation and Yan Jiansheng's meanness.
6. Yan Jian is dead or alive. Zhao and his younger brother discussed how to dismiss their posts. Yan Jiansheng's eldest brother Yan Gong Sheng came back from the imperial examination, but regardless of his brother's life and death, instead of arranging a funeral, he went to the provincial capital to arrange a marriage for his son. Later, Zhao's son died of illness, and Wang De wrote to Yan, asking him to come back to discuss the issue of heirs. At this time, Yan got married in the provincial capital.
Because the money given to the blowjob was too small, the blowjob refused to come, so the bride didn't give a sedan chair. Finally, two people reluctantly took the bride back. On the way back, Yan pretended to be ill and deliberately left cloud cakes for the boatman to eat. The anti-pollution boatman took medicine to save people and finally owed money to the boat.
After returning home, he claimed that Zhao was a concubine, and asked his son and bride to move to the square of the dead brother's house to occupy the house. Zhao complained, and the heads of the families dared not take care of it. The magistrate of a county decided to listen to Zhao's advice. Yan refused to accept it, and appealed to the province and the Ministry of Industry. It reflects Yan's stingy, overbearing and rogue behavior.
7. Fan went in to see his teacher. Because Jin Fan was going to Shandong to study Taoism, Zhou Jin told Jin Fan to pay attention to Xun Mei and let him go to Shandong to study. At that time, Xun Mei and Wang Hui were in the same examination room. They met the fortune teller Chen Li and made a divination for the future of Wang Hui.
Xun Mei's mother died. After the entrance examination, Xun Mei and Wang Hui wanted to go home to attend the funeral, so they wanted to hide their death, but they had to go home. After the funeral with Xun Mei, Wang Hui returned to the provincial capital alone. It embodies the hypocrisy and impetuousness of literati.
8. After returning to the provincial capital, Wang Hui was ordered by the court to fill the vacancy of Nanchang magistrate, so he took office. After arriving in Nanchang, he deliberately refused to accept the letter, and he didn't officially take office until the satrap sent money. Later, King Ning rebelled and captured Nanchang, and Wang Hui surrendered.
After the defeat of Ning Wang, Wang Hui fled and met Chi Gongsun. When Guo Gongsun Sheng returned home, he told his grandfather Guo Taishou about it. Guo Gongsun Zan's two cousins visited and stayed for a few days, sending them back to the provincial capital. It reflects Wang Hui's greedy and unprincipled behavior.
9. On their way back to the provincial capital, Lou Gongzi met Zou San, the son of Zou Jifu, a servant who looks after the grave for his family, and said that he lived nearby. Lou's son then went into the house to visit. During the meeting, I learned that Yang Zhizhong was sent to prison for managing the accounts for others. Prince Lou decided to save people. At home, ask the servant Jin Jue to take money to the county to make it clear. It was taken at Loufu's house, and the magistrate released Yang Zhizhong.
Yang Zhizhong went home because he didn't know who saved him. After many days, Lou's son wanted to know who Yang Zhizhong was and went to Yang's house to find him, but he couldn't find him. On the way, I met Liu Shoubei's boat and pretended to be Lou Fu. Lou Shi's son only preached and released. I visited again a few days later, but I still haven't seen it.
10, Lou's son still couldn't find Yang Zhizhong for the second time, but he met Lu Bianxiu on his way back. Speaking of Yang Zhizhong, Lu Bianxiu doesn't agree. A few days later, Chen Li visited. At this time, Guo Gongsun lived in Loufu, and Chen Li proposed marriage for Lujia's daughter. Teacher Mi wrote to let Teacher Lou handle it as appropriate. According to the meaning of Lu's editing, Mi Gongsun was taken into the Lu family. On an auspicious day, I got married.
1 1. After marriage, Miss Lu is both talented and beautiful, while Mi Gongsun's literary knowledge is very general, but she is helpless. Zou Jifu came to Loufu, talked about Yang Zhizhong again, and decided to visit again. After meeting, we had a good talk.
Because Mi Gongsun's knowledge is too low, Lu Xiuxiu is worried that he can't be an official and wants to marry another concubine in order to have another son. Attract the old lady's dissatisfaction. Lu Bianxiu became ill because of this. At this time, Yang Zhizhong saw that Lou's son was very good at making friends with wise men, so he recommended a knowledgeable person to Lou's second son, named Quan Bu.
12. Mr. Lou's son was about to visit when the new master Wei came. Seeing that there were many trivial matters, Yang Zhizhong suggested that the servant bring a letter to invite him. On the way, the servant learned that usufruct is an idle and unprofessional person. I wrote two letters before I came to Loufu. Take a knight.
Lou Gongzi also invited some friends to play and drink with him for a few days. The chivalrous man cheated Lou Gongzi of five hundred and twenty pieces of silver, and then disappeared. The right not to use it has a criminal record in the country of origin and was taken away by the police who followed. Lou's son is a little disappointed. Lu bianxiu was promoted by the imperial court, but he died happily.
13, Chi Gongsun met him. He started a class to help people study, and listened to his tips on further studies, which was very inspiring. The servant of the landlord's house was locked in an affair with the secret servant girl and ran away with the box that Wang Hui had left in the old man's house.
Mi Gongsun sued the official, and the servant with him learned that the box was the stolen goods of the rebellious official, cheated all the money of Guancheng, and cheated Mi Gongsun of the money in the name of Guancheng, pretending to ask Shuanghong to be redeemed. I didn't see Guo Gongsun Sheng, so I found him and tried to calm things down with my own money.
14, after bargaining, paid 92 taels of silver, and wrote a document to ask Bi Gongsun to redeem Shuanghong before getting back the stolen box. The messenger took most of the money. Guancheng and Shuanghong are far from home. After the matter was settled, Ma Chun went to Hangzhou. After arriving in Hangzhou, I played for several days until I met a "fairy" named Hong Hanxian in Dingjiamiao.
The immortal learned about Ma Chun's current predicament and was interested in giving alms. Ma Chun gave him a few pieces of black coal, which he took home to refine with fire and turned into silver. Fairy also asked the rich Hu Gongzi to pay 22,000 silver dollars to prepare materials for an alchemist, saying that after 49 days, she could cultivate a "silver mother" and then turn stones into gold. Later, the immortal "drove a crane to the west".
His servant told the story that Hong Hanxian was not a fairy, but only intended to help Ma Chun. After helping with the funeral, Ma Chun met a boy named Kuang Jiong in the street. He slept on the street and had no money to go home. Moreover, my father is seriously ill and very sad. Ma Chun lent him twelve taels of silver to help him go home to be filial, and repeatedly told him to pursue his career and enter school.
On the boat home, I met Zheng's father (who later became Kuang's father-in-law) and told a story-the Zhang brothers fought because they complained that their father was partial to their younger son. After being sued by his father, the eldest brother and the second son went up and down to make money and dropped the lawsuit in the name of his father.

The Scholars is a satirical novel, which criticizes and exposes the present social situation and the fate of Confucian scholars with pungent brushwork. The novel vividly depicts the decadent status quo of spiritual morality and cultural education of the intellectual class under the imperial examination system. It reveals the concept of fame and fortune, bureaucracy, interpersonal relationship and the whole social atmosphere through life.
The author starts with exposing the imperial examination system and the ugly souls of literati enslaved by this system, and then satirizes the fatuity and incompetence of feudal officials, the greed and meanness of landlords and gentry, the hypocrisy and meanness of arty celebrities, and the decay of the whole feudal ethical code system and the distortion of people's souls.
Wu's satire obviously dealt a powerful blow to feudal society and vented the complaints of most like-minded literati about the meanness of human nature and the darkness of society.
