After sleeping in the new house for one night, he got up with some back pain, which made Hanzhou very alert, immediately opened the doors and windows to ventilate, and burned a handful of firewood in the stove. Then let yourself stand under the sun and do some stretching exercises to get every part of the workout and promote circulation throughout the body.

She is not willing to settle for any discomfort now, preferring to be tired and live carefully.

The garden is large and quiet, and in early spring, when the seedlings do not grow, and last year's weeds have not been removed, it looks a little barren. It may be that the garden in the front yard is too good, and there are fewer people in the back garden, and if there are fewer people, there will be no popularity, so they will neglect to take care of it, and gradually it will be abandoned.

Or maybe there were dead people here, and a few strange bird calls appeared, and it might be regarded as a haunted garden, after all, this is an era when individual ghosts and gods haunt at the same time.

Thinking so wildly, Han Zhou looked at a small well in the garden. There were no dead bodies floating here, just a few branches and fallen leaves. It looks like the water is clear and cool. I tried the roller next to it, and it can still be used normally.

There was some twine that was about to rot at the base of the wall to the west, as well as a broken quilt and a large jar with a broken mouth. Some of the pots looked good, with soil and dead plants.

Firewood was also piled up there, and everything was left to the wind and rain.

Hanzhou was too lazy to clean up, and he didn't know where to put this pile of garbage. It seems like this is a messy place.

She thought that she was just a passer-by here, and this place was not worth her effort.

I used to yearn for a garden where I could plant some plants I wanted to grow, and I imagined sitting on a wicker chair and growing old slowly, and talking to my children about the past. But after working hard for many years, she had to settle herself on the fifth floor without an elevator, and she generally didn't go downstairs when she had nothing to do, and once wrote a small poem, the first sentence was "My courtyard is my balcony", now that I think about it, it was really a joy in the bitterness, self-deception.

Now, in front of her was the courtyard of her dreams, so big that she didn't know what to do. Looking at the dead grass, she thought, this yard is now inhabited, and she is not a wild ghost who goes in and out of the deserted garden, so let's get rid of the wild grass, even if it is to avoid fire.

Rolling up her sleeves except for the grass in the morning, her waist didn't hurt anymore, and her eyes were not so desolate, so she was in a better mood. Sitting tiredly under the sun, she felt a little dizzy, as if she was hungry and had low blood sugar, and she remembered that she hadn't eaten breakfast yet. But suddenly she remembered another question, where is the canteen or kitchen? Yesterday, I followed the old Deng to have a meal, the yard was too big, and she didn't remember where to eat.

No, she was forced to stand up, and if she fainted here, she wouldn't be noticed for a day. Maybe you will eventually find out, and you will be thrown into this well. She is a house slave, and no one will check if she dies.

She tried her best to think about the direction of yesterday, let herself go forward against the root of the wall, and walked out of the back garden where there were many people, and she was not afraid. After crossing over, there were no other problems in the body, and I didn't expect low blood sugar to still carry it with me. God, you are not kind, good people have to do it to the end, you know?

There was a sound of running and fighting in front of him, and a little boy stumbled over, and Han Zhou helped him. But to be honest, at this time, Han Zhou didn't know who was holding whom, she was really dizzy, and the muscles in her hands jumped suddenly.

"Take me to eat, eat sugar!" She said eagerly.

The little boy originally ran over with a smile, but her pale face and trembling body startled the little boy, and he jumped away with an "ah", and Han Zhou flashed and fell to the ground.

"I'm going to eat sugar, I'm going to eat sugar." Han Zhou screamed eagerly, and she herself sounded a little terrible, that kind of ferocious feeling.

"What's wrong, what's wrong?" There are big children's voices.

"I want to eat sugar, I have to eat sugar." Cold sweat came out of Han Zhou at this time, and the person was so weak that she was a little fluttering, she was very afraid of this feeling. She was afraid that if she delayed a little longer, she would not be able to hear her own voice.

In her ears were the voices and shouts of several children, who were circling above her head, and the sky was high and far away, and gradually she could not hear them, and she drifted away.

When she woke up again, she was lying on the kang. Next to them were the group of children and an old mother-like woman. Lao Deng's voice came, as if he had just sent the doctor away.

Han Zhou licked her lips, there was a taste of sugar, she finally ate the sugar.

The little boy next to him pouted: "Hey, you're so greedy, and you're still yelling for candy, I don't want it." ”

A few children laughed.

Han Zhou also laughed, he must have frightened them just now. She said, "You will remember me from now on, the woman who asked for candy when she saw someone." ”

The children laughed, this woman is very interesting, now it is not scary.

Lao Deng came over and stood next to her, looking angry: "Girl, let me say what is good about you?" Didn't I take you to a place to eat? You said that you were hungry and fainted on the first day you came, and when you turned around, the master found out, what would you say about me? Your eldest lady won't let me wait on you all the time, will you? ”

Han Zhouqiang sat up, glanced at the children, and then at Lao Deng: "Brother Deng, I was deliberately hungry, okay?" I'm here to make everyone remember me, okay? If the master asks, you say so, okay? ”

The children laughed again, this person was so funny. Even Lao Deng didn't have a temper, so he could only blow his beard and stare at his eyes.

Han Zhou ignored him and said to the children: "Now, if any child takes me to find food, I will tell him a story and give him a gift." ”

Well? There was a moment of silence, and then there was "I'll go, I'll take you." ”

There was a tall man sensibly going to help Hanzhou, and the youngest little boy symbolically pulled her clothes. A few people were noisily looking for something to eat.

The woman asked Lao Deng with strange eyes, but Lao Deng was angry, in front of this group of children, it was too embarrassing just now. What's the matter, I'm also a person next to my lord, how can I not take it seriously?

In the afternoon, the back garden was lively, and a group of children cleared the wild grass with Hanzhou. The story she told them was "The Farmer and the Snake." The children thought the story was too short and asked for another story, and Hanzhou told "the fox and the male goat that fell into the well".

The tall boy said, "The male goat is as stupid as the farmer."

The youngest said, "They're not stupid, they're just too kind." ”

A child with a mole on his face said, "They were unlucky and ran into bad people." ”

A little fat man said, "Snakes and foxes are bad in themselves, and they must be killed if they see them." ”

……

After they finished speaking, they all looked at Han Zhou, and Han Zhou smiled at them, saying that they were all right. The children said that she was slippery and did not dare to offend people. Han Zhou smiled and didn't argue, the story was originally benevolent.

"Then you tell me one more, and we will spare you, because you just played a trick." The tall man instigated.

"Yes!" Others chimed in.

Hanzhou had no choice but to talk about "good and evil" again.

"A good who is weak in strength is driven to heaven by evil. Good at asking Zeus how he can return to the world. Zeus told him not to go together, but to visit the world one by one. Evil is very similar to people, so they keep going to them one after another. Because goodness comes down from heaven, it comes very slowly. ”

The story is very short, Han Zhou spread his hands, and the meaning is finished.

The tall man said, "This story is not good, it is not as interesting as it was just now." By the way, who is Zeus? ”

Han Zhou said: "Zeus is a god in this world, and he is in charge of many things. You just said that this story is not good, why do you say that. ”

The tall man said, "Why didn't Zeus let Shanduo come to the world." This Zeus is not good. ”

Han Zhou said: "Because Zeus knows that good will always encounter evil in the world, and goodness because of the softness of his heart, he always can't bear the difficulties of others and always wants to help others, so he gives the opportunity to be hurt by others." Zeus was sympathetic to the good, and he didn't want all the good to disappear one by one because of the possible encounters. So let them come to the world slowly. And people in the world, they need kindness, but they do not accept the kindness of others, and they may not reciprocate the kindness of others. Therefore, letting the good come to the world a little later is also an opportunity for them to punish and introspect. ”

The tall man nodded, "There seems to be some truth to what you say."

The little fat man asked, "Did you make up this story?" How I feel endless. ”

Han Zhou said: "This story is over, Aesop's fables are a short paragraph, he just wants to tell a truth, and he doesn't pay attention to the front and back and development of the story." Through this story, Aesop wants to show people that it is not easy for people to encounter good, but they are hurt by evil every day. What I just said is my own understanding. You can also have your own understanding. ”

"Oh, you're more reasonable and funny than the gentleman in the school." Said the youngest boy.

The little fat man asked again, "Who is that Aesop you just talked about?" Where is he? I want to bring him over and tell stories every day. ”

"Yes!" Those who have a mole on their face also say.

Han Zhou smiled and said, "He, I don't know where he is, but I have read the story he made up, and he is a great slave." ”

The boys looked at Han Zhou in surprise, this person who wants candy is too strange, can a slave be described as great?

In Hanzhou's view, Aesop can certainly be described as great, and the truth of dealing with people for thousands of years is conveyed from small stories. The Analects of Aesop is also about dealing with people, and Aesop's Fables are relatively more vivid and interesting, unlike the Analects of Analects, which begins with preaching. Therefore, the people who really like to read the Analects are often people who have reached a certain age. Aesop's Fables are different, and people of all ages will enjoy them.

Seeing the children's unacceptable faces, Han Zhou smiled, pointed to the rotten hemp rope at the root of the wall and said: "The slave is just the one who was misplaced, the fault of the person who placed him, not the slave's fault, just like the rotten hemp rope, now it is an eye-catching garbage when it is placed there, but in another place, it is a usable treasure." ”

The children shook their heads and pouted in disbelief, Han Zhou smiled, and didn't say anything, what do they know about the children who have been slaves since childhood?

Aesop has long said in his fables that geographical advantages and heavenly opportunities often give people the courage to fight against the strong, and the slave does not fight only that he does not occupy the geographical advantages and heavenly opportunities now.
