Summary

The passage describes a dramatic scene involving Qin Mu, a talented poet, and the Lin family. Initially viewed as a poor relative, Qin Mu gains respect after writing a remarkable poem about Mingzhou. The Lin family, particularly the old master and his grandson Lin Tian You, initially look down on Qin Mu and offer him a mere hundred taels of silver. However, the local literati defend Qin Mu's poetic talent, suggesting his work could fetch ten thousand taels of gold. Embarrassed, Lin Tian You is forced by his grandfather to apologize to Qin Mu, who graciously tells him to keep the silver as charity.
