Chapter Twenty-Five: The Flame Is High When Everyone Gathers Firewood

"But this time when you participate in the carving party, you must not tell others that I taught you!"

After hearing the master's words, Yun Buregret couldn't help frowning, and said secretly in his heart: "I'm afraid there must be a story here." ”

"Third uncle, you have taught me all your stone carving skills, and you are also my master anyway, why are you not allowed to mention it? Are you afraid that I will lose your reputation?" Hearing that Yun Buregret said this, Sun Tian couldn't help but be silent, and after a while, he sighed.

"I was born into a family of carvers, and my father, grandfather, and grandfather all did carving. When I was eight or nine years old, I followed my father and grandfather and learned the craft of carving. By the time I was sixteen or seventeen years old, my carving skills were already well-known in our local area. Originally, my father was counting on me to be able to make a difference in this line of work one day. But who would have thought that I would become the greatest shame in his life!"

"I remember when I was 20 years old, I also participated in a carving party held in my hometown. At my age, I attended that sorority, and I was a man of the year at that time. In my life, I have failed twice in my carving. And that carving party was also the one that completely discredited me. ”

Immediately afterwards, under the introduction of the third uncle Sun Tian, Yun Buregret completely understood what was going on. At that time, when he participated in the carving party, the third uncle chose an extremely unique stone, at that time, he only cared about the strangeness of this stone, and wanted to carve a beautiful pattern, but he ignored a key problem, this stone actually hidden internal cracks.

It wasn't until he finished carving that when others were cleaning up the candidates' works, they might have used too much force, so that the internal cracks inside were extended to the outside. Just such a lost gap ruined his entire work, and at the same time ruined his life!

A good carver should be good at taking advantage of every inch of the stone's shortcomings, but he ignores this problem, and until he finishes carving, he does not find any internal cracks in the stone, and there is no excuse, which is itself caused by his lack of professionalism. So his work was directly eliminated in that competition because of this crack, and even lost the qualification for the semi-finals. And he himself became the laughing stock of everyone present.

A carver who can't even find an internal crack is also worthy of being a carver? What are you kidding? You must know that although this stone is not completely opened, as a carver, it has the ability to predict the unknown. If you can't do that, you're not a perfect engraver. Being able to carve and being an engraver are always two different concepts.

Because of this incident, his father was furious, saying that he had discredited the family. In this way, after the blows of his family, the ridicule of outsiders, and countless accusations were superimposed on him, the overwhelmed third uncle quietly retired from this industry and faded out of everyone's field of vision. In the end, he came to Luoshan Village alone and settled here. And he is unwilling to let Yun Buregret mention his name now, because he is afraid that Yun Buregret will suffer the consequences of what he left back then, which will affect this child and destroy a genius in carving.

After listening to this story, Yun did not regret it, but said firmly: "Third uncle, don't worry, if I have the opportunity to come to power this time, I will definitely not lose your face, third uncle." And I don't regret it, and it's not so easy to be hit by others!"

Remember, never underestimate any opponent, and never underestimate any stone. If you're going to this sorority, be sure to look carefully inside and out of the whole stone. If you're not 100% sure, don't do it!"

"Well, third uncle, don't worry, I don't regret writing it down!"

After Yun did not regret leaving here, he returned home. He first turned over the hatched eggs and filled the pigsty with some food. Only then did I take some rapeseed and go to Pinzi Mountain again. There is a large area of good fields in Pinzi Mountain, and the soil here is quite fertile, and Yun Buregret is ready to plant some cabbage in it. Anyway, this land is idle. Growing cabbage here is nothing more than taking some effort. As for the cost, it is almost negligible.

When he came back from Pinzi Mountain, he found that the third uncle was standing at the door of his house waiting for him. Yun Buregret hurriedly walked a few steps and asked, "Third Uncle, why are you here? Why did you make a trip yourself?"

"It's not a big deal, some time ago, when I was bored, I compiled all the curiosities I knew about carving. When you have nothing to do, you can flip through it and take a look, these are all carvings that have become the swan song of the ages, and it will be good for you to study them carefully!" After saying this, the third uncle turned around and left. It's just that at that moment, Yun Buregret felt that the back of the third uncle carried a trace of loneliness and a trace of expectation.

"Don't worry, I won't embarrass you!" Looking at the back of the third uncle, Yun Buregret said to himself.

That night, the village chief called Yun Buregret to his home and invited him to eat dumplings at his home. After eating and drinking, the village chief sighed, and then said: "We are a poor country here, and we have lived a bitter life from generation to generation. Now there are a lot of dolls in the village, and it is said that it is time to learn knowledge. However, our teaching conditions here are really limited, so that the academic performance of these dolls is not very good. ”

"Today in the village, I also discussed with you, the villagers of our village, if you talk about this level of education, you still don't regret that you have the highest knowledge now. I know that you are indeed very tired and bitter every day, but for the sake of the next generation in the village, I have nothing to do with the three masters!

There is no need to find out, at this moment, Yun Buregret already knows what the village chief and the third master want him to do: "Third master, you are polite when you say this, if it were not for you, without the regular help of the villagers in the village, it would be impossible for me to have the present time when I do not regret." Everyone has always remembered my kindness and unrepentance. Isn't that what you can't do with me? But then again, if you let me go to school and be a teacher for those dolls, that's not going to work. ”

"First of all, I don't have a teaching certificate, so don't mention anything like a private teacher, it's outdated. I plan to set aside two nights a week to make up lessons for the children in my village. Do you think that's okay?"

Yun Buregret said very frankly, and when the village chief heard it, a relieved smile immediately appeared on his face.

"That's a good feeling, don't regret it, don't worry, if you are willing to pay so much for the village, then everyone will not let you work in vain. ”

"Three masters, don't say anything extraordinary, when everyone helped us back then, you didn't expect anything in return. And I am also a member of the mountain village, so it is only natural that I should make a little contribution to the next generation of the mountain village. What's more, I already have a source of income lately. In the economic part, you don't have to worry, I already have a solution. ”

After leaving the village's house, Yun Buregret couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, he knew that he would be even busier in the future if he did this. As soon as he entered the house, the village chief couldn't wait to run to the village brigade headquarters and began to announce this good thing with a loudspeaker. As a result, when the people in the village heard the news, everyone was naturally overjoyed. In fact, the villagers in the entire village understood in their hearts that the reason why Yun Buregret didn't go to college was not because he couldn't pass the exam, but because he had to take care of his parents at home!

Said and done, that night, Yun did not regret giving the children the first lesson, but I have to say that this lesson is really difficult, although there are many children in the village, but they are all different ages and sizes. There are children in several grades. Therefore, Yun does not regret that he can only choose the key problems to tell you. After this class, Yun Buregret felt that his mouth was dry, but what made him happy was that the children were very engaged and serious in learning, especially the iron pillar who was usually the least serious, and now they were listening to the lecture with a concentrated attitude.

He continued to lecture for more than two hours without regret, and only after explaining all the difficult points in the textbook that he needed to understand today did he announce the end of school. After Yun Buregret went back, he didn't take off his shoes, and he fell asleep when he lay on the kang. On this day, he was really tired, not only to make a fence in Pinzi Mountain, but also to plant cabbage in that good field, which also required a lot of work.

It took him a whole day, but he had only just turned over two or three acres of land there. Even he began to plan whether to hire a floor plougher. However, the price of this floor ploughing machine is very expensive, if the hundreds of acres of land are all turned over, I am afraid that there will be at least a few thousand yuan of investment. For a long time, Yun Buregret felt that he had been poor for so many years, and now he was reluctant to let him spend so much money at one time.

Yun Buregret fell asleep in a daze, until the next morning, he was woken up by the pigs in his pigsty. Every morning at six o'clock he got up on time to feed the pigs, today it was already eight o'clock, the pig had not seen his master feed himself, naturally he did not do it, and could not help but pull his neck for a violent howl. Hearing the pig's shout, Yun did not regret turning over and going to the ground, and after tidying up his clothes, he hurriedly went to feed the pig.

I glanced at these little piglets who were growing well, and my heart was full of infinite expectations. After a casual bite of food, he took the tools and walked in the direction of the barren mountain he had contracted. But when he came here, he suddenly felt stupid. It turned out that at the foot of the barren mountain at this moment, there were about twenty or thirty villagers who were making fences there!

And at this time, there was a buzzing sound of machines in this Pinzi Mountain. Yun Buregret walked over a little blindfolded, not understanding what was going on? The villagers who were working there couldn't help but greet him when they looked up and saw Yun Buregret coming over.

"I don't regret it, why didn't you sleep at home a little more when you were so late in class yesterday? Now is the time for farming, everyone helps, and it won't be long before it's over. Oh yes. The village chief found you a floor ploughing machine, and now he is helping you turn over the land inside. ”

"Sixth aunt, Uncle Wang......! Thank you for ......!"
