What kind of person is Dr. Yu?

Dr. Yu entered school at the age of 24 and worked as an old scholar for 30 years. As a scholar for thirty years, it seems that Dr. Yu, like Pu Songling, failed the exam repeatedly. Pu Songling has been a scholar for longer than Dr. Yu. He has been a scholar for fifty years. Pu Songling used it all his life, and there were no candidates in the exam. Is this Dr. Yu following Pu Songling's old path?

In order to make a living, Dr. Yu became a teacher. Dr. Yu is lucky. He has to pay a high salary to teach private schools, thirty-two silver a year. Mr. Pu Songling's salary is much lower, only eight taels of silver a year. The difference in wages between the two is three or four times. Pu Songling, whose salary is not high, often racked his brains for food and clothing, while Dr. Yu, who has a relatively high salary, has only about thirty taels of silver to marry.

Dr. Yu, who married his daughter-in-law, accumulated twenty or thirty taels of silver in two years and found four rooms. Looking for a house is renting or buying? I don't like renting a house very much It's too expensive to rent twenty or thirty taels of silver a year. I'm afraid twenty or thirty taels of silver is not enough to build a four-room house. Therefore, Dr. Yu should have bought a second-hand house.

Why else is it called looking for a house? According to the house price ratio, it is deceptive to ask Du for fifty taels of silver to repair the house. Twenty or thirty taels of silver is enough to buy four rooms, but Huang needs fifty taels to overhaul the house. He must have cheated Du of his money.

Event:

When Dr. Yu was thirty-two, he lost his library, could not go to a private school, and lost his job. Fortunately, Dr. Yu Can also tells fortune and watches Feng Shui. He showed the feng shui tomb of a family named Zheng. After being buried, the Zheng family thanked him for twelve taels of silver. Earned the money equivalent to half a year's salary as a museum at a time, which depends on the high-income industry of Feng Shui. If Dr. Yu didn't take the imperial examination later, he might have become a fortune teller and a feng shui master.

On the way home, Dr. Yu saved a man who threw himself into the river. The rescued man threw himself into the river because he had no money to bury his father. Doctor Yu gave the man four taels of silver, and naturally everyone helped each other. What Dr. Yu means is to be open-minded in everything, and death is not the way. If you need help, ask for help. Doctor Yu has a kind heart. He not only gives money to help people, but also gives them suggestions and solutions.

Character evaluation:

In a sense, "the shaping of Yu Yide's image is the most important thing for the author". Compared with Du's character, Yu Yide's image is much more prosaic, but these seemingly prosaic plots are very idealistic and close to a saint. First of all, the novel devoted thirty-six times to the biography of Yu Yide, and then the novel deepened its image as a "Confucian saint" with some plots.

Dr. Yu also took this road in his studies, but he was not so crazy when facing the good news of winning the prize, and his attitude towards "winning a job" was not the same.

When a farmer dived into the water lightly, Dr. Yu called the boatman to save him. When he learned that the farmer was living a hard life, he didn't give him his twelve taels of silver as an ideal gift, but frankly explained that he also needed travel expenses and gave him four taels of silver. He is not poor, but he doesn't intend to be an unsung hero. There is a moderate rhythm in the doctor.
