Previously, everyone was a Confucian scholar or an ordinary person.
He Hongda could still call Su Yu by his first name.
But now, Su Yu is a scholar and he is a child.
The difference in status suddenly emerged.
Thinking of that day at the grocery store, He Hongda taunted Su Yu that he might call him senior brother next time they met, and he felt his face burning with pain.
Senior brother is senior brother.
But it was him who shouted.
Unless Su Yu fails the provincial examination next year, he will pass the provincial examination later than Su Yu.
Otherwise, he would be a junior in front of Su Yu for the rest of his life!
Although I feel regretful in my heart.
But He Hongda's apology was quite sincere.
Moreover, he was also very polite and took the initiative to apologize to Su Yu for tea.
He Hongda is from the city and his family background is pretty good.
Therefore, the students in these cities basically knew him.
Many people were surprised to see him take the initiative to admit this.
"Brother He, you..."
He Hongda continued sincerely: "It was indeed my fault."
"Please forgive me, Senior Brother Su."
After saying that, he had to pour the tea himself and serve it to Su Yu.
Everyone present was attracted by the movement here.
In addition to some students, there were also some gentry and concubines who had arrived early.
Everyone looked at it strangely.
Although this is in public, it is different from what they said is under the list in front of all the candidates.
But it’s enough to kill society.
Su Yu said calmly: "I accept your apology. There is no need to serve tea."
"As the saying goes, 'A gentleman has nothing to eat to satisfy his needs, nor a place to live in peace of mind. He is quick to do things but cautious in what he says.'"
"I just hope that Mr. He will be careful in his words and deeds in the future, and will not listen to partial beliefs again and end up saying evil words."
He Hongda heard Su Yu say that he didn't need to serve tea, and looked up at him with some gratitude.
It turns out that Su Yu is so good...
And he speaks well and is really very literary!
"Thank you, Senior Brother Su..."
"I have memorized all my senior brother's teachings."
Regardless of whether I really remember it or not, in front of everyone, this gesture is enough.
He Hongda thought to himself that he had indeed listened to Song Yuxiang's words before, which was why he was hostile to Su Yu from the beginning.
If he could be more attentive in his relationship with Su Yu, this kind of thing would never happen!
Sure enough, beauty is a curse...
but.
There are also some that are not a disaster.
Su Yu forgave him and the matter was resolved.
His mood immediately relaxed a lot.
He couldn't help but secretly glance at the rolled up writing paper.
The beauty above is just the person in the painting and will never harm him!
While He Hongda was lost in thought, someone said, "Brother Su is upright and upright. He is indeed a handsome gentleman."
"If anyone says anything bad about you, Brother Su, in the future, I will be the first to let him go!"
This sentence was recognized by many people present.
Everyone said a lot of praise for Su Yu's open-mindedness.
At this time.
A hearty laughter came from outside the group of people surrounding them.
"A gentleman has nothing to eat and nothing to ask for, and nothing to live in peace. He is quick to do things but cautious in what he says."
"Well said!"
Everyone turned around and looked at the speaker.
The visitor was Mr. Deng, the magistrate of Baipo County who had changed into casual clothes.
When he came in just now, he saw a lot of people gathered here and was a little curious.
Gradually walking in and listening to these people's words, he quickly understood what was going on.
Hearing Su Yu's gentlemanly words again, he suddenly showed appreciation.
The head of the case is the head of the case.
The level is indeed different.
He had not known before that there was such a person in the town under his rule.
"Lord County Lord."
Everyone present saluted Magistrate Deng.
Magistrate Deng smiled and waved his hand: "Today's banquet is to congratulate everyone who has been successful in the college examination."
"Don't be formal, just be casual."
Although he said it casually, when he stood here, others would definitely not be able to let him go.
Magistrate Deng himself knew this, so he called Su Yu alone to the table where he wanted to sit.
He looked kindly and directly invited Su Yu to sit down.
"Speaking of which, I haven't read your article for this college examination."
"But I just listened to your conversation with others, and I have a vague idea of why the academic leader named you as the head of the case this time."
“After all, articles are like people.”
"With your temperament, you must have written your article in a majestic way."
As soon as Magistrate Deng came, he praised Su Yu.
In fact, in all the years he has been in charge, he has never been released from the hospital for trial.
Although he had it before, it was not considered his political achievement.
If you get the first place in the college examination, you will definitely have a good chance of winning the provincial examination later.
Deng Zhixian, as the person who passed the Su Yu in the first test of the imperial examination, naturally hopes that he can continue to work hard and earn more political achievements for himself.
So that he can be promoted early.
Su Yu smiled and said, "Your Excellency, the county magistrate, is so complimentary."
Fortunately, I didn't ask him to write the article silently, otherwise it would be really embarrassing.
Deng Zhixian saw that he behaved politely and spoke and acted with extraordinary magnanimity. He was not complacent at all because of some small achievements.
He became more and more satisfied with this young man.
She even asked him to sit next to her first.
After Magistrate Deng arrives, the banquet can officially begin.
At this main table, only a young man, Su Yu, was present.
Others are older gentry and more respectable scholars who teach in the Kaixueguan.
After everyone congratulated Su Yu, they kept looking at him the whole time.
Fortunately, Su Yu had been stared at by bigger figures during the previous college examination and the prefect's banquet, so he didn't panic at all.
His expression was as usual, and there was even a slight smile on his face.
It also attracted continuous praise from everyone.
The pot-bellied member Chen drank a few glasses of wine outside and said to Su Yu with a blushing face: "I think Mr. Su is quite young. I wonder if you are married?"
It would be just fine if we didn't get married.
Those people here who were looking at Su Yu obviously had other thoughts.
Many people are thinking about getting married to him and taking this promising young man into their homes as soon as possible.
Su Yu smiled and replied: "We will get married after passing the imperial examination."
Mr. Chen, who had just asked Su Yu about his marriage and wanted to introduce him to someone, gave him a smile.
"We're married..."
After the government examination, it only took two or three months for the hospital examination.
He actually got married during this gap and still managed to do so well in the exam.
"That's really unlucky."
Although they were somewhat interested in Su Yu's future and wanted to marry him.
But since he is already married, he can only give up temporarily.
After all, it would be hard for their daughter to marry any scholar as a concubine.
Still have to keep an eye on it.
Su Yu's words temporarily blocked everyone's thoughts.
No one mentioned it again later.
After having enough wine and food, Magistrate Deng left first.
Others gradually began to leave.
Su Yu smiled so hard that his face froze, and now he was finally liberated.
He didn't want to stay any longer, so he went to say goodbye to his classmates and planned to go back to the inn where he was staying to rest and set off back to the village early tomorrow morning.
