Chapter 262 Birthday Banquet (Thanks to the Monkey Taming Master Book Club Leader)(3/3)
Zhang Yu was still boasting about Zhang Yue, and the discerning people in the room must have noticed a little bit.
Zhang Yue didn't say anything. He didn't pass the exam anyway, and if he didn't pass, he wouldn't be able to pass, so he was just ridiculed by Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yue lowered his gaze and said calmly: "Uncle is so complimentary."
Zhang Yu smiled when Zhang Yue said nothing.
Someone immediately took them to the table, and the seats were not arranged randomly. However, there was no scene where Zhang Yue thought he was looking down on others. He asked their family to sit nearby, but his own relatives.
Zhang Yue noticed that there were many visitors. Zhang Yu had a relationship with Ouyang Xiu, so Ouyang sent them.
Even Wu Anshi and Wu Dalangjun came.
However, Wu Anshi looked at Zhang Yue with a bad face and did not say hello.
There was an imposing man of about thirty years old at his table. He glanced at Zhang Yue and smiled: "This is Zhang Duzhi."
Zhang Yue glanced at the other person and said, "Exactly, I don't know your brother's surname."
Fang Yan said: "I am in the next chapter. I have a cursive character for my husband. I have been living in Suzhou before."
Zhang Yue looked at the other person and said suddenly: "I have admired you for a long time, I have admired you for a long time."
"If we are talking about music scores, we are still cousins who have not yet released the fifth server. We will be closer and closer in the future."
Seeing what the other party said, Zhang Yue was very happy and said with a smile: "Of course, of course."
"How about passing this provincial examination?"
Zhang Yue said: "It's hard to say what the ranking is."
Zhang Kai said: "That's what you say, but I see that Du is a little unhappy and seems to have no confidence in this provincial test."
Zhang Yue said: "Brother Qi Husband, is it possible that you can still read faces?"
Zhang Kai burst out laughing: "You know a thing or two about words and expressions, but that's a bit presumptuous. In fact, you are still young, so it doesn't matter if you fail in one subject. Just try again in two years. Knowledge can be gained slowly, but others can be improved.
First things first.”
Many people sitting at the table looked a little unnatural after hearing Zhang Kai's words. Zhang Shi and Zhang Qiuben also stopped talking to others.
Zhang Yue said: "Brother Zhifu, what I have learned is that brother Zhifu is thirty years old, so he should be more anxious than me."
Zhang Kai smiled slightly and said: "Duzhi, this is my kind advice. I still hope that you will get a high grade in this subject. If you don't succeed, we can also learn from each other. How many years have I made you longer? How many days have I made you longer?"
There are still some.”
Zhang Yue said: "Thank you for your good advice from brother Zhifu. I think brother Zhifu and Zihou will always get along well with each other."
Zhang Kai smiled but didn't answer.
Zhang Yue understood that he was here to avenge Zhang Dun.
"Brother Qifu, you are older than me. I don't know if I'm right or not. It's hard to say anything about this examination. You can be successful once or you can fail several times. It depends on your own talents and learning.
In the way of luck, don't be anxious if you are successful first, and don't be discouraged if you are not satisfied. No one should judge whether you are good or bad. But a person's mind and spirit are different. I don't know if I am right?"
People at the table couldn't help but nod their heads after hearing Zhang Yue's words. He said it well.
Zhang Shi was afraid that Zhang Yue would offend him and said quickly: "Brother Qifu, my third brother said something presumptuous, don't take it to your heart. I'll make amends with you with this glass of wine."
Zhang Yue felt a little sad for some reason when he saw his brother's groveling look.
While they were talking, they saw Zhang Yu coming here. Everyone stood up to greet Zhang Yu.
When Zhang Yu saw Zhang Yue, Zhang Kai was very happy and said, "Come and let me introduce you."
Zhang Yue and Zhang Kai stood up together and said, "Uncle, we have known each other just now."
Zhang Yu took Zhang Yue's hand and said, "My uncle is very happy that you can come today, Sanlang. I know that you had some grudge against my uncle in the past, but it has gone away no matter how long it took."
"Uncle is not a stingy person. When people are not happy, they can only see themselves and not others. Now when they are proud, they can see others."
Zhang Yue said: "Uncle, what you said is wrong. I have never had any grudges with you. It's just that some people don't take others seriously when they become officials and gain power."
"Although I am a penniless scholar, I dress and eat by myself. I have never begged anyone in my life. I rely on myself. Some people are considered to be officials, but no matter how great the official is, one should never bully others because there are always officials who are better than others.
You are big."
After Zhang Yue finished speaking, everyone at the table was shocked and speechless.
Zhang Yu took a step back and said with a forced smile: "Why are you still such a bad-tempered kid? It's fine with my uncle, but will you still be like this in front of the Wu family in the future?"
Following Zhang Yu's gaze, Zhang Yue saw that Wu Anshi was also looking here.
Zhang Yue raised his wine cup and toasted Zhang Yu with a glass of wine and said, "Uncle, you don't need to worry about this matter. I wish you a happy birthday with this wine."
Zhang Yu was speechless. At this moment, someone came from outside and said, "The results have been released. Gongyuan has released the results."
Someone wondered: "Release the list? It doesn't mean why tomorrow was mentioned one day."
Zhang Yue looked a little sad after hearing this.
There were more than a dozen banquet tables, but several people stood up and said goodbye to Zhang Yu to go to Gongyuan to see the list.
They are all scholars taking the examination in Jinke.
Zhang Yu hurriedly persuaded him to stay and asked him to send people to drive horses to the Gongyuan to see the results and return the favor.
Hearing what Zhang Yu said, several scholars tried to persuade them to stay. However, two people insisted on going to Gongyuan to see the ranking with their own eyes.
Zhang Yu also sent people from the government to drive the two of them to Gongyuan.
Gongyuan is not far from Zhang Yu's house, and it doesn't take long to go there and back.
Zhang Yu said to Zhang Shi: "The people looking at the list will come back soon. You and Brother Yue will have a drink here. When there is good news, we will also be happy together and congratulate Brother Yue."
Zhang Shi thought Zhang Yu meant well and smiled: "Thank you very much, uncle."
Zhang Yu and others, he just saw Zhang Yue's expression and knew that he probably had no chance of winning at this moment.
Zhang Yu said with a smile: "What are you talking about? I treat Brother Yue as my own son. If he ranks higher than Brother Dun, I don't know how happy I would be. If he wins provincial yuan, I will be even more... so happy that I don't know what to say."
"
Zhang Yue couldn't listen anymore, so he got up and left the table.
The old governor stepped forward and asked, "Where is Brother Yue going?"
It looks like he is afraid of escaping.
Zhang Yue said angrily: "Chu Gong."
Just as Zhang Yue was leaving the table, the person who looked at the results sent by Zhang's government hurried back to his house.
