Translation of Classical Chinese in Biography of Yu Feng Nan

Feng Fang, the word uncle, kept the ceremony, and later changed his name to Feng Daosheng, who was full of words and served as an official. After losing his official position, he returned home, addicted to reading and writing, knowing everything, so he was arrogant, cynical and bohemian. There was a man named Fang who learned to write from Feng Fang and later often took his name. Feng Fang said angrily that she would gouge out her eyes. He can't impersonate me. The servant left obediently. He took a pair of animal eyes and lied to Feng Fang, saying that they belonged to the square stone. Feng Fang actually believed them and gave him a lot of money. The next day, the Taoist priest came to see Feng Fang, and the servants didn't want him to come in, for fear that Feng Fang's scam would be exposed. Finally, Feng Fang was surprised to see the Taoist priest with perfect eyes and said, "I heard that you met a thief at night and your eyes were gouged out, and now they are intact." What's wrong? " Fang Shi said, "I was robbed of my eyes at night, and a ghost took pity on me and put the dead man's eyes in his." Now, although there is no difference in appearance, the pain is vivid. Feng Fang also believed it and bought him wine to celebrate.

Feng Fang is superstitious. Every year he calls a Taoist priest to set up an altar to drive away fleas and lice. When the guests came to visit him, he asked, "Since the altar is used to drive away fleas and lice, do you think there are fewer fleas and lice than before?" The guest replied, "Yes, it's really reduced a lot. I was surprised when I came in. Now I know that all your fleas and lice have come to my house. " Feng Fang is pedantic. Zong Bojiang once asked him to write an epitaph. He writes and writes in Chinese calligraphy, but while eating the noodle soup sent by ginger, his throat suddenly gets blocked and he cries that ginger will poison him. His monk Fred burned other papers without telling him and stole the money he gave him. Feng Fang is a man who talks nonsense. I once chatted with others about seeing the phoenix on Zhengyangmen several decades ago. Others don't believe me. Feng Fang pointed to the top boy of 13 and 4 years old and said, "He saw it, too."

Feng Fang is a freak. There are many stories circulating in the street, and this is only a small part of them. What makes it "notorious" in the history of book collection is that it forged many "ancient books". What's more, Feng Fang insulted Confucianism, saying that Zhu wanted to sell books for a living, so he rushed to come up with a new statement to raise the price, saying that Confucius met Nanzi (his second wife), which showed that Confucius was not decent.
