Chapter 200: The Silver-Thrower Is Compassion
The pro-soldier was in his twenties, his face was like a knife and an axe, and at first glance he was a person with a resolute temperament, but he was asked at this time, and he didn't dare to explain, so he knelt on the ground with a puff and said in a deep voice: "The crime of despicability deserves death!"
"It's not their fault," Song Manqiu snapped: "I was in a hurry and forced my way in." ”
Song Yinting snorted coldly and scolded: "The people in charge of guarding today are all kneeling outside the tent!"
When the pro-soldier led the order to go out, Song Yinting said angrily to his daughter: "This little scholar has been praised by you to the sky, but he is a man with great ambitions and talents!"
Song Manqiu hung his head and said in a low voice: "Daddy only saw him, how can he make such a conclusion." ”
"Do you know who that monk was just now?" Song Yinting asked rhetorically.
"It's Yu Zhaozhong. ”
"Hmph! That little scholar didn't know how to offend this evil monk. ”
Song Manqiu heard a hint of off-string sound, and said in astonishment: "Daddy means to ......"
"The so-called entrusted with the important task is to ask him to go to Tingzhou to suppress bandits. Song Yin Tingyan added: "Do you know what kind of place Tingzhou is?"
Song Manqiu naturally knew. Tingzhou is the state capital of more than 300 miles west of Quanzhou Mansion, and it is also the place where the Lunatic Cult bandits are most affected.
"This evil monk ...... Is this evil monk going to take the life of the young man?" Song Manqiu exclaimed: "Daddy, this can't be helped!"
"Before he left, he said that he had the order of the Holy Lord to inspect the southeast, and he had to say something when he went back, should you just say it casually?" Song Yinting sighed.
"Is this a threat? If he doesn't agree, he will go to the Holy Lord and slander his father?" Song Manqiu also realized the seriousness of the situation.
"Your grandfather has written several times, and he has mentioned this little scholar, and his love for talents is overflowing. Yu Zhaozhong wants to get rid of him by my hand, but I am naturally unwilling. Originally, I thought that I could drag it out, but it was a big deal to spend some troops and win a few battles, but fortunately, I had an explanation on the side of the court. Who knows......" Song Yinting said this, and sighed again.
Song Manqiu was just stunned and lost his bearings, but at this time he calmed down a little, looked sideways and pondered for a moment, and suddenly said: "Daddy, Fang Cai's situation, Manqiu can't understand it, but Bu Gongzi may not, maybe he is like a mirror in his heart, but he just doesn't want you to be embarrassed." ”
Song Yinting hated that iron could not become steel, and said with a smile: "Silly girl, how many times have I told you, don't think of people too kindly." ”
"Daddy, if I tell you something that just happened, maybe you'll agree with Manqiu. Song Manqiu said.
Song Yinting shook his head and sat down, and said for a long time: "You say." ”
"Shicai and Bu Gongzi came from Quanzhou, and they saw all the way, the people were hungry, the wild were hungry, and the women couldn't bear it, so they had to waste money and help them......"
"How can you help with the strength of just one person. Song Yinting sighed: "Did the scholar say this to you?"
Song Manqiu shook his head and said, "Bu Gongzi didn't say anything, he just watched from the sidelines, neither helping nor hindering." But when the daughter saw the fierce eyes of the people, she was afraid that they would rob each other of their property and cause their lives, so she took her hand. ”
Song Yinting raised his eyebrows, nodded approvingly, and said, "You did the right thing." ”
"Daddy also thinks his daughter is doing the right thing?" Song Manqiu asked seriously.
"You are weak, how many people can you save?" In order to avoid causing a fight, why should you stop in time?" Song Yinting said: "Could it be that the scholar blames you?"
"Nope. Song Manqiu smiled slightly, as if remembering the scene on the road before, and said softly: "Bu Gongzi didn't say anything, but he secretly threw silver coins on the side of the road when there was no one along the way, he thought I didn't see it, and I didn't expose it." ”
"Oh?" Song Yinting pondered, "He is much more clever than you in this way. ”
"Daddy was right. Song Manqiu echoed: "My daughter didn't understand it very well at first, but when she came, she thought all the way, and she had some eyebrows. ”
"Tell me about it. Song Yinting encouraged.
"As my father said, I gave money to the victims in person, and when people saw it, it was bound to cause covetousness, and when I left, they might go up and rob them...... Where is the money I give, it is clearly a calamity. And if a victim picks up silver on the side of the road, it will be hidden from others, and when they enter the city, the silver may save the lives of a family. Song Manqiu said.
Song Yinting approvingly: "In this way, this scholar is really a wonderful person. ”
Song Manqiu couldn't help but be a little sweet and happy when she saw her father praising Bu Gongzi, and continued: "After my daughter figured out this section, she felt the same as her father, but she just thought of what Bu Gongzi usually did...... Only then did I think of a deeper layer. ”
"How is he on weekdays?" Song Yinting was also a little curious.
"Daddy, Bu Gongzi hunted ghosts for more than 1,000 people in Yuezhou Mansion, and in the end he didn't collect a cent, and saved the boy in the hands of the moon thieves, all of which were good deeds, but he never regarded himself as doing good. Even in the Seven Divisions of Yuezhou, there is a saying: If anyone who praises the son of Bu is a good person, he will try his best to justify, saying that he catches ghosts for greed for money, saves people to save his own sister's younger brother, and saves others by the way. ”
"Don't take credit, don't be proud, at a young age, with this self-cultivation, it's really good. Song Yinting said in a deep voice.
"Daddy, is this just self-cultivation? Song Manqiu said.
Originally, the daughter shouldn't have talked back, but at this moment, the father was pushed back, but he didn't care at all, but smiled and said, "Could it be that there is any deep meaning?"
"My daughter also figured it out on the road just now. Song Manqiu said: "Put yourself in your shoes, if it is me, I am receiving help from others, or I pick up the silver myself, the mood is different, right? The former is suffering, which makes people feel inferior and self-inferior, and the latter is happiness, which makes people feel nostalgic and hopeful......"
"Daddy," Song Manqiu raised her head and said seriously: "My daughter thinks that this is compassion and the great one of goodness......
Song Yinting was happy in his heart, feeling that his daughter could have this kind of thought, which was really the pride of being a father. "Perhaps, Bu Gongzi just feels more comfortable doing this. Although he said this, he unconsciously changed his title and replaced "that scholar" with "step boy".
Song Manqiu's face was slightly red, for fear that his father would see his daughter's thoughts, so he nodded and said, "As for whether Bu Gongzi really knows Yu Zhaozhong's malice, he still needs to ask his father personally." ”
"Hmm...... Go and call him, and I'll take the test, if that's what you said. Song Yinting paused and said, "For my father, I will definitely protect his life." ”
"Hmm!" Song Manqiu heard this promise, and his heart was settled. She didn't seem to think about it at all, Bu'an would not be able to pass the test.
