Chapter 378: Bold
Li Dabao continued to tinker with his orchard. He bought dozens more saplings on the Internet.
Most are apples, pears, grapes, apricot trees.
It was already more than three o'clock in the afternoon, and Li Dabao came to the river with the little black rhubarb.
He was going to catch two fish and go back.
As dinner today.
On both sides of the river, the water and grass are luxuriant, the trees are full of life, and occasionally a few birds fly in a group, chirping and flying over.
There are also people who work in the mountains, they eat with their hands, and it is not easy for them to earn every penny, and there are even people who stretch out their black hands to them.
"You two keep up, it's time for me to show what I'm capable of, and I'm going to show you what I'm capable of today. Guaranteed to catch big fish. ”
At this time, he saw a boy who looked a little silly.
Everyone else was wearing only outer clothes, but he was still wearing a cotton shirt and cotton pants.
Sitting quietly on a big rock and looking into the stream.
I don't know what he's looking at.
He had been sitting on the stone for most of the day.
Li Dabao walked over, and your uncle and Xiao Hei also followed.
"What are you looking at?" asked Li Dabao suspiciously.
"I'm looking at myself. The man said.
Li Dabao took a closer look, and it turned out that he was looking at his reflection in the water.
"The people in the village called me stupid, even the children called me stupid, they chased me and scolded me, and threw stones at me, I was stupid, I didn't volunteer it, this IQ is all natural, I want to be stupid? I don't want to be an ordinary person? I don't want to be smart?
But I don't have any skills, I'm not lazy, I'm diligent, I wake up earlier than others, I go to bed later than others.
I planted twice as much land as others, and everyone else did it with a few people, but I did it alone.
The grain grown all year round is not even one-third of other people's food.
I'm stupid, I'll go home and think about it for a while, but they seem to treat me like a brute who doesn't know anything.
Breathe and drink to me.
I have been taught by my mother since I was a child that I must repay my kindness, and the grace of a drop of water should be reciprocated by a spring.
I don't owe anyone anything to the poplar stump.
I'm stupid though. I didn't eat other people's rice. Even when there is nothing left at the beginning of spring, I boil tree bark and eat grass roots, and I never borrow a grain of rice from others.
Today, they said that there was a great benevolent man in the village, who was distributing rice noodles, and I also wanted to go and see it, after all, eating wild vegetables all day long, and my stomach was not comfortable.
But they all said that I didn't invest in Wang Jinzhu's Gale Wind Investment Co., Ltd., so they didn't give me rice noodles.
I don't know why that man brought rice and noodles to our village, but he must be a good man.
After all, only great good people would do that.
In fact, I rejected it in my heart.
After all, they gave me a bag of rice, a bag of noodles, a barrel of oil, and a bag of salt.
What shall I repay them?
Looks like I'm worth that much money with this cheap life. The silly guy seemed to be talking to himself.
Poplar stump is heard talking to himself.
Li Dabao felt that although this guy was a little stupid, he didn't say anything about being a person, and he was even quite principled in some aspects.
And in some ways he is very similar to Li Dabao, neither of them is willing to owe anyone anything.
It's just that Li Dabao is smarter, more talented, and has a more eccentric temper than him.
"Hehe, I don't think you're a fool, if you can trust me, just mess with me, and make sure you have food, drink, and money to spend.
Maybe I can even get a wife. Li Dabao said with a smile.
"But I don't know anything but farming, and I don't farm very well. Although Yang Shujiao wanted to agree to Li Dabao, after all, the conditions proposed by Li Dabao were too tempting, but Yang Shujiao knew how many catties and taels he had, so he said.
"I don't want you to farm, you can do whatever I say. Li Dabao said.
He is not short of money now, although he likes the rural life, but he is afraid of being tired.
Isn't this a ready-made workforce right in front of you?
Don't cheat and play tricks, there are not so many fancy intestines.
Most importantly, this is a man who is grateful.
So Li Dabao hit him with the idea.
Hearing that he could eat enough and marry a wife, Yang Shustump subconsciously swallowed his saliva.
With fragrant white rice, who the wants to eat wild vegetables all day long?
"Cheng, Cheng, what do you want me to do, just say it, now you are spending money to take care of me, and I will work for you at any time. Poplar Stump said.
"Do you have a shovel at home?" said Li Dabao.
Poplar Stump nodded: "As long as there are any tools related to farming, my family has them." Naturally, shovels are also available. ”
"Do you see that wasteland? All you have to do today is turn over the ground, and we'll plant all kinds of crops there.
Turn those over the ground. Of course, I also had two bags of rice, two bags of white flour, two barrels of oil, and two bags of salt in the car.
You can get your home and get paid for it. ”
Li Dabao pointed to his van and said.
Yang Shustump saw that Li Dabao actually had a van, and he felt that Li Dabao was definitely a person with status.
Otherwise, how could you use such a gas-burning car?
Compared with the oil-burning car, he thinks it is better than the donkey cart at home.
Because the donkey eats the grass that can be found everywhere in the mountains, and drinks the water from the well at home.
This stuff doesn't cost anything.
Although the poplar stump was notoriously stupid in the village, he had a good donkey.
His donkeys give birth to donkeys every year, and they are all very healthy donkeys.
No sickness, no disaster, no need to spend a penny.
Otherwise, he would be stupid, and he would have survived until now?
The rest of the donkeys are not good.
"Your house isn't too far from here, is it? Why don't I send you back and then pull you back." Li Dabao said.
"No, no, what's so embarrassing? You know, your car is expensive.
I'll just take two steps, it doesn't matter. Yang Shustump said that he didn't want to take Li Dabao's car.
Li Dabao said: "These rice noodles or something have to be sent back to your house." ”
Poplar Stump said nervously: "Why don't I go back and set up my donkey cart, I'll pull these things back, and then I'll work for you." ”
"Don't say it, if you walk back, it will take a long time, with this time, you can help me do a lot of things, come up, there is not much money, what is this money?
The great benevolent person you are talking about is me, and I sold the rice and flour oil in that truckload.
In fact, if you give me work or not, I should give you these rice noodles.
So you're welcome. ”
After waiting for a long time, the poplar stump nervously entered the car.
Probably afraid of getting the inside of the car dirty, he kept sitting on the rice bag.
I didn't expect him to have the opportunity to make such a luxurious car.
This cart is much stronger than your own donkey cart.
It didn't take a few minutes to get to my house.
He carried rice and noodles to the house alone, Li Dabao wanted to help, he didn't agree to anything, these dirty jobs were all prepared for him.
How could the proprietor be allowed to do such a job?
Li Dabao didn't care about this guy, and continued to go to the creek to catch fish.
Probably because the stream is relatively small, there are not too many fish in the rain, they are all small miscellaneous fish.
One afternoon, Li Dabao grabbed a small half bucket.
Take Xiao Hei and your uncle back to their hometown and start cleaning up these fish.
Tonight, I'll eat dry fried small trash fish.
Li Dabao took out the computer and began to think about it.
What kind of writing on the Internet?
His favorite is "Smiling Proud Jianghu" written by the old man Jin Yong in his previous life.
"Smiling Proud Jianghu" is a martial arts written by Jin Yong in 1967, which was serialized in "Ming Pao" from April 20, 1967 to October 12, 1969.
"Smiling Proud Jianghu" belongs to Jin Yong's later works, and its narrative has reached the realm of perfection and superbness.
The scenes, characters and scenes of various martial arts characters fighting are innumerable, but they have been written over the years, and the scenes change endlessly and can fit life.
The center of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" is the martial arts struggle for hegemony and power, in order to achieve the goal, seize the "Evil Sword Spectrum" and "Sunflower Treasure Book", and finally both factions were defeated in the "Evil Sword Book" and "Sunflower Treasure Book".
"Smiling Proud Jianghu" is one of the masterpieces of the new overseas martial arts, which not only relies on the ups and downs and treacherous plots to attract people, but also portrays the characters in the intricate contradictions and conflicts, creating dozens of literary images with distinct personalities and vivid touching.
For example, the open-minded and uninhibited Ling Hu Chong, the delicate and wise Ren Yingying, the affectionate and willful Ren Yingying, the cunning and cunning Yue Buqun, the unruly and scheming and calculating, the icy and jade-clean, lovesick and infatuated Yilin, the humble and depressed and bizarre Chong Xu, the "Four Friends of Jiangnan" who escapes disputes and places their affection on their respective preferences, and the "Six Immortals of Peach Valley" who joke about gags, can all add brilliance to the gallery of martial arts characters.
The noble spirit of chivalry, benevolence, wealth and nobility, and unyielding majesty exalted by the works still has a strong appeal to today's people.
Ni Kuang commented on the cuteness of the character of Ling Hu Chong, the protagonist of the proud rivers and lakes, is the most popular character in Jin Yong's pen, he is a little more casual than Yang, a little more stylish than Wei Xiaobao, and a little more chic than Qiao Feng.
In Jin Yong's mind, Ling Hu Chong is also a different person from other characters.
Among Jin Yong, there has never been one who has used so much ink to write about this person's character.
Not only in Ling Hu Chong's words and deeds, his character is expressed, not only in the comments of others on Ling Hu Chong, his character is expressed, but also subjectively to write his character.
Linghu Chong loves to tell jokes, which is a manifestation of his heart not taking anything seriously.
In the eyes of a person with a character like Ling Hu Chong, there is nothing in the world that cannot be used to laugh at it, and when the sky falls, it can also be used as a quilt cover.
This is Yue Buqun's scolding of Ling Hu Chong, Ling Hu Chong is a person who doesn't care about anything, for him, there is nothing serious in the world at all, why should he be serious when he speaks?
This kind of idea, which the world considers frivolous, is actually the most open-minded idea.
However, after reading the whole book, Ling Hu Chong did not even use the slightest despicable and shameless means.
This is a situation that is well worth bringing up and discussing.
Just because a person ideologically believes that certain things can be done does not necessarily mean that the person will definitely do them.
What can be done and what cannot be done is a constraint that arises in the context of the social era at that time.
Some things that could never be done in a certain period of time have become extremely ordinary and everyone is doing them under the change of the social background of the times
。 Whether you can do it or not, that is a kind of constraint, and this kind of constraint is a kind of rebellion against constraints for people who are not restrained in character, and it is not necessarily necessary to do it.
If, ideologically, there is no resistance to constraints, it is an insult to human nature.
Ling Hu Chong did not do anything despicable at the moment of honor and disgrace, and later, in "The Story of Deer and Ding", Wei Xiaobao did something, Wei Xiaobao's actions are completely in line with Ling Hu Chong's ideology, but he has been criticized by readers so far, which is really wronged.
Yue Buqun always thought that Ling Hu Chong was "cunning", although Ling Hu Chong was full of tricks, but everything was true, Yue Buqun was fake everywhere, and suddenly felt that he couldn't parry.
Cheerful and upright by nature. "I hope she will forget me cleanly, and after I die, she won't shed a drop of tears" This is Linghu Chong's hope for Yue Lingshan, he is in love with Yue Lingshan, the flowers are intentional, and the flowing water is ruthless.
But he can also see it, for the sake of the other party, and would rather be "always sour in his chest". The sourness is unbearable, not that Hu Chong can't see it, but the normal reaction of any normal person.
If someone in the world can find out, he is no longer a human being but a god. Therefore, Ling Hu Chong is sometimes unavoidable: "My chest is sore, and I have no fighting spirit, so I want to throw down the long sword and let it be slaughtered." ”
Ling Hu Chong is not a very combative person, come and go casually, unrestrained, unrestrained, put a fighting spirit in his heart, and make himself a slave of fighting spirit, so why did he come?
Ling Hu Chong and Wei Xiaobao have similar personalities, if the two can meet, they will definitely become irreversible friends, and every word between each other can be said to each other's hearts. However, Wei Xiaobao and Ling Huchong are completely different.
Writing, the most difficult thing is to write about two people with similar personalities and write them completely differently, Jin Yong did this in Ling Hu Chong and Wei Xiaobao.
Flipping through a "Smiling Proud Jianghu" is not deliberately looking for it, there are already so many things about Ling Hu Chong's character.
There is a reason why Jin Yong is particularly interested in portraying Ling Hu Chong's character. The reason is that there are not many characters like Ling Hu Chong.
Linghu Chong is really a kind of person who is free and open-minded and has perfected the realm, there may be more such people in ancient society, but in today's society, there are really very few.
He is willful and messy, just because he doesn't want to be restrained, and any restraint placed on him will be used as a thorn in his back.
He doesn't necessarily like this kind of bondage, but if he has to have this kind of bondage, he can't stand it, this kind of uninhibited personality is typical: if you ask him to do something, he may not do it, and if you don't let him do it, he will have to do it.
In the afterword of "Smiling Proud Jianghu", Jin Yong said: "Full and complete freedom is simply impossible. "It's because people have desires.
