Chapter 109: The Self-Righteous Maier
The family problem has been resolved, but Mel is feeling very uncomfortable. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
In fact, Maier didn't think about asking Ramorgis for help, he was afraid that Ramorgis's church would disgust Euris and make the relationship between the father and daughter deteriorate further, but Maier still sent the letter. Ramogis takes a more extreme approach to solving the problem, making it difficult to reconcile his relationship with Euris.
This was an unanticipated consequence of Myer, who he felt was responsible for his selfishness and incompetence. He began to reflect on himself, reflecting on the sentence "You, you are too gentle" to him with a smile.
Is meekness wrong?
Before thinking about this, it is important to clarify the definition of gentleness. Gentleness is not blindly tolerant, blindly forbearing, blindly compromised, and blindly not harmful. Gentleness is an attitude, a kindness. If meekness does not carry wisdom, then meekness becomes a chronic poison that erodes others as well as oneself.
Myer's relationship with Euris is complicated. He has a good impression of Ulis because of her beauty and thoughtfulness, and because he owes too much favors, he becomes inseparable, and finally because of the dual reasons of politics and feelings. Before becoming a lord, Mair was weak, just like the one in front of him, and could only accept kindness unilaterally. Even if they tried their best, they couldn't help the other party and couldn't repay the kindness.
If Smile doesn't show up, Urris's calculation will succeed. In return for her kindness, Mel will force herself to love her. At that time, even if Maier must make Alice his wife and marry Yishan, Urlis's status will not be shaken, just like Xiaoxiao now.
But Ullis's failure also lies in calculation. She knew that Maier was a man who didn't eat calculations and ate true feelings, but she still calculated and calculated, and even hid her true self, so that Maier mistakenly thought that she was changing for herself, so as to improve her evaluation score in Myer's heart.
The straight smile didn't think about it that much, and whether she liked her or not, she had to tell her what she really thought. Of course, Xiaoxiao also used some small tricks, but these tricks were just to get close to Myer, to get his attention, to win his favor, and to make him accept herself. From the beginning to the end, Xiaoxiao thinks about Maier, and rarely thinks about himself. When Maier felt the true feelings of the smile, he would naturally treat him with true affection.
Men are not fools who can be played with casually, nor are they the goals of women, and love and the relationship between men and women cannot be maintained by calculation alone. Uris understands this rationally, but until now, she is still calculating Myer. She knew that Maier cared about her feelings, so she pretended to be sick after the incident against Anjie and asked Maier to take the initiative to see her.
She knew that Mel would see through her faking illness, but she also knew that Mel wouldn't hate herself for it. Meier, who is apologetic for cheating, will try to make her happy and fulfill her requests as much as possible, so that she can do whatever she wants.
Uris knew that every time Mel came to her, she wanted to talk to her about peace and order. She could have made a hysterical fuss and said everything in her heart, and even if she said it too much, Mel would not be angry. However, she did not give Mel a chance to speak, so that Mel felt very incompetent - this is not what a wife should do.
In contrast, Yishan, who rarely plays tricks with Meier, is too simple. The relationship between Maier and Yishan is also complicated, Yishan is Maier's cousin, and Maier treats her as a relative. If it weren't for Xiaoxiao's reminder, he wouldn't have realized that Yishan had feelings for him beyond family affection.
The union of Maier and Yishan also has both political and emotional reasons. Maier also owes Yishan a lot of favors, and the reason why he can become a legitimate lord is because Yishan wrote a letter to Teng Yan. This favor is too great for Maier not to repay. And Maier, who had just become a lord, had nothing to repay Yishan, and accepting her affection and marrying her became Maier's only choice to repay the favor.
Yishan has done a lot for Maier and is looking forward to being rewarded. Her requirements are not high at all in the eyes of the Taeyong woman, and she is nothing more than exclusive to Maier. Yishan didn't want to share her beloved man with other women, and if it weren't for the fact that Maier had already had a fiancΓ©e in advance due to Gray's drunken gaffe, she would not have allowed Maier to be engaged to multiple women at the same time.
Maier still had a little affection for Urise, but he never had that idea of Yishan. Although the union of the two does not violate the ethics of the two races, in reality, when Maier and Yishan had sex for the first time, there was still a sense of betrayal in his heart. This sense of betrayal slowly faded as the number of intercourse sessions increased, and only then did Maier accept the fact that Yishan became his wife.
When the family power was still there, Yishan was strong and capricious. At first, Maier tolerated because he was under the fence, then because Yishan was a cousin, and finally because he felt guilty about Yishan. Most of the time, Meier's attitude towards Yishan was tolerant, and it was not until Teng Yan's power was destroyed that this forbearance turned into pity.
In other words, Maier never loved Yishan from beginning to end, and Yishan knew this very well. Yishan knew that Maier had loved Euris once, even if it was only a little bit, but he had loved Euris before. She has always been secretly jealous of Euris because of this incident, which is also the fundamental reason why Euris has always regarded Yishan as a friend, but Yishan has always had reservations about Euris.
Yishan is jealous of every woman in Maier's harem. Putting aside the smile that enjoys almost exclusive Myer's love, Yishan's most jealous woman is Alice. Alice, who appeared out of thin air, did nothing for Mel, but got the position of wife for nothing. Ulis also has a grudge against this incident, which is also the fundamental reason why although the "Princess Alliance" and Queen Alice have a good relationship, Ulis and Yishan have always regarded Alice as an outsider.
In fact, Alice also has Alice's helplessness. It is precisely because she did nothing for Mel that she sat in the position of the wife for nothing, that she always had a sense of crisis. She could feel Euris and Yishan's hostility towards her, which was a woman's instinct, so she didn't dare to treat them as her own.
Alice knew that her position as a wife was obtained by the agreement of her father, and as a wife, she couldn't grasp her husband's heart, because Mel's heart was dead on Xiaoxiao. She is grateful for Xiaoxiao's help to her, but at the same time, jealousy is inevitable. Xiaoxiao's indifference made her very insecure, and she thought more than once about giving up the position of queen to Xiaoxiao, but she was reluctant to give it to Xiaoxiao in the end.
Once she relinquishes the position of queen, she will live under the shadow of Xiaoxiao's wings like Kiki and Xiaoye. Alice didn't want to live under someone else's wings, because that would make her even more insecure. That's why she's always wanted to pull Ista and Lulu into Myer's harem, and she gets a little sense of security when someone lives under her wings.
But in reality, Kiki and Xiaoye don't live under the shadow of Xiaoxiao's wings. Although they married Mel with the help of Xiaoxiao, it was their own choice to stand on the same front with Xiaoxiao and obey Xiaoxiao's arrangement, and Xiaoxiao had no intention of forming a gang at all.
It is true that except in Meier's harem, Xiaoxiao is very popular everywhere. When the Black Shrine had not yet fallen, she had sworn to follow dozens of people from the factions that were wary of each other by virtue of her charisma, something that not everyone could do.
In the minds of many people, Xiaoxiao is the best candidate for a wife, and Qiqi and Xiaoye are no exception. They don't like Alice, they don't like Euris, and they don't like Yishan, because all three of them are too self-centered and cause a lot of trouble for Myer. Kiki and Xiaoye are both Maier's maids, and the two are used to thinking about Maier in everything, so they will agree with Xiaoxiao who thinks about Maier in everything, and hope that she will become the principal of the side hall.
Such a complex, and more complex harem, was built under the constant compromises of Meier. This compromise had always been seen by Maier as a sign of tenderness, but now he had changed his mind.
He thought that compromise would not hurt, but in fact every time he compromised, he hurt others, and the injured were innocent. In the case of this incident, Maier did not want to hurt the four women he had a relationship with, did not show a tough stance towards them, and took advantage of the situation to develop a relationship with them. His six wives were not responsible for the incident, but Meier's infidelity caused them a lot of harm.
Kiki and Xiaoye won't be angry with Maier, so the account is counted on the heads of the four pregnant women. Although they agreed to marry the four of them, this was not their true idea. If it weren't for Xiaoxiao coming to talk to them, I hope they will focus on the overall situation, and they won't give these four people a good look.
Ulis clearly expressed her dissatisfaction, and taught Mel a lesson in her own way. Yishan didn't dare to show her displeasure because she had lost her family's protection, but she still made a gesture of refusal behind Ulis. Although Alice did not show a gesture of refusal, when she was negotiating with An Jie, she kept beating her, letting her know that even if they married Mel, they would have to clamp their tails and be human beings after marriage, otherwise she, the queen, would settle the old accounts together and clean them up.
One of the most hurtful is the smile that has so far not expressed any expression of the incident. She never imagined that Mel would be involved with other women behind her back. Regardless of the cause and the process, in the end, Maier's protection of the four is enough to show that he has approved of these four women and wants to marry them.
Xiaoxiao is the most favored princess, and because of this, she is also the most seriously injured. But she did not show her wounds like other princesses, but chose to accept the reality and endure it silently.
In fact, the real gentle person is you, smile.
Mel put down the unread paper and sighed heavily. At this moment, he finally understood that his so-called gentleness was nothing more than an escape, not real gentleness.
Be gentle and sinless, for all the sins are mine.
Mel closed her eyes in pain and closed the folder.
What can I do to make amends for my faults?
What can I do so that I don't hurt others?
Mel took all the blame on himself, but it did not mean anything other than to increase his suffering.
"You guy, aren't you too self-righteous?"
That evening, Gray said this to Maier, who had come to talk to him. Gray's words surprised Maier, he had always felt that he was quite humble and cared for the feelings of others, how could he be considered self-righteous like this?
"Do you know why 'self-righteous' is a derogatory term?" "'Self-righteousness' is 'always thinking you're right,' and that's a sign of pride," Gray said. Because of this, self-righteous people are reluctant to accept other people's advice. Remember, Mary, nothing is wrong in this world because of one man's mistakes. There may be only one person who makes a mistake directly, but there will be many people who have direct responsibility, or even indirect responsibility. β
"It's like a man who kills someone with malice and sheds innocent blood, and is he the only one who is at fault? Was this man a murderer from birth? Why did he become a murderer? Did his parents give him the right education when he was a child? Did he give him the right example? What happened to him when he grew up? Does his experience have anything to do with the fact that he chose to kill innocent people? β
"Some people are born greedy and eat one of the fruits themselves, and they take all of both. You can say that he was born evil, but so what? Isn't the existence of parents precisely to guide their children to the right path? Parents don't care if children are at fault, and even encourage children to do things that violate morality or even the law, isn't the so-called wicked person cultivated by such parents? β
"Even if the parents nurture the child correctly, the child will have to leave the parents and enter the society when he grows up. The influence of society on people is no worse than the influence of parents on people. When people see the unfairness of society, see the dark side of society, and find that hard work may not be rewarded, but the wicked can enjoy it, can they still maintain that kind heart? β
"Who was the first to sin?"
Mel forgot his purpose for a moment and discussed the issue with Gray.
"I don't know, and I don't want to know." Gray replied, "A man and a woman, together with material and time, can develop a society." We don't know how many pairs of men and women there were in the first human race, and we don't need to know about it, because it doesn't matter. Human society has always followed a law, that is, 'a rat poop will ruin a whole pot of soup', so there is no point in dwelling on these things. Let's get back to the point and continue to talk about your self-righteousness. β
