In a secluded high place, under a big willow tree dyed with goose yellow new leaves, Song Yuanshan's family placed the food box he brought, lit a tandoor charcoal fire, warmed the best rice wine, and the three brothers sat on the grass, watching San'er run happily with the little girl all over the world. Looking at the chessboard-like fields in the distance, as well as the countless farmers who were busy on it, several people were in a particularly happy mood.
Xu Jie looked at Mao Yulong who was lying crooked on the grass, and asked with a bad face: "Do you really want to be greedy for your family's acres?" ”
Song Yuanshan also knew that dedicating his family's land to meritorious celebrities was just to avoid forced labor and taxes, which was something that everyone knew well.
So the attitude towards Mao Yulong was also estranged.
Mao Yulong couldn't help but laugh when he saw his two friends with such an attitude: "Don't be like this two elder brothers, the younger brother hasn't done it to that extent, I just want to teach those insatiable guys a lesson, if they really covet their land, don't say it's someone else, it's my mother, you can break my legs." ”
So Mao Yulong said that before he was admitted to the show, his clansmen forced his family to be orphans and widows several times, forcibly seized a few acres of land under his name, and tried to drive his family out of the clan several times in order to seize his family's real estate.
Forcibly seizing someone's property is secondary, but it is indeed too insidious to expel a person's family in order to forcibly seize someone's property. In China, when a person is expelled from the ethnic group, it is all a matter of cutting off the person's roots. In this way, life is not recognized and blamed by everyone, and death cannot be buried in the ancestral cemetery, which is the biggest punishment for a person, which will make people feel that they can't hold their heads up for the rest of their lives, and even life is worse than death.
When Mao Yulong said that he was talented in high school, the patriarch forced himself to accept the donation but did not take a penny of gratitude, and even forced the old lady to succeed a few clansmen, and even his own future was forcibly robbed, Song Yuanshan smashed his fist on the grass with hatred, and Xu Jie also said hatefully: "It's too much, it's too much." ”
Gently wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes, Mao Yulong smiled and said to the two brothers: "But don't worry, they can be dirty, but I can't lose my humanity, and I haven't forgotten the way of loyalty and forgiveness of the saint." If you really do that, don't say that you will be criticized, even your conscience will not be able to live in peace, I will just teach them a lesson, and stop thinking that I am young and easy to deceive. ”
After receiving Mao Yulong's assurance, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, the rice wine came up, and the three of them began to drink, so Song Song Yuanshan asked Mao Yulong curiously: "How can you teach them a lesson and convince them?" ”
Mao Yulong dried up the rice wine in his hand in one gulp, and proudly signed a contract with the patriarch
The dedication document that was ordered was recited, and now there is a certain person who is willing to dedicate the land to Mao Yulong's name, and the land should be rented in the ancestral hall of the clan school, and the rest is not counted as evidence. ”
After this breath, he almost suffocated Mao Yulong, but fortunately, he always jogged in the morning, and his lung capacity was still large, or he would have become the first person in history to be suffocated by his own words.
Xu Jie smiled and said, "This can't be nothing, and this can't take care of them." ”
Mao Yulong looked at Song Zihao, who was famous in the same year, he had 200 acres under his name, and he also wrote such a document: "Brother Song, you read this document to Brother Xu." ”
Although Song Zihao was also inexplicably wonderful, he still read it according to the convention: "
"Today, there is a certain and so-and-so, how much land is willing to be, please dedicate it to Mao Yulong's name, one should be rented in the ancestral hall of the clan, and the rest is not counted, and the word is used as evidence." Then together with Xu Jie, he asked suspiciously: "There's nothing wrong with this." ”
Mao Yulong smiled slyly: "Wrong, wrong, this document should be read like this." So Mao Yulong read word by word: "Today, there is a certain and so-and-so, who is willing to invest in the land and dedicate it to Mao Yulong's name, and the land should be rented in the ancestral hall of the clan, and the rest are not counted, and the word is used as evidence." Then he asked the two brothers, who had already opened their tongues: "Look, did they voluntarily dedicate this land to me?" Am I the natural owner of this land? Is there any doubt about this? Then he spread his hands: "There is no doubt about it." ”
A single sentence break completely changes the overall meaning of a sentence, which is indeed amazing.
Seeing the surprised expressions of the two people, Mao Yulong proudly drank a glass of rice wine again, and said with a smile: "The little brother is in a good mood now, so I will offer ugliness, how about making a Liangzhou poem for the two elder brothers?" ”
Song Yuanshan hit Mao Yulong at that time: "Don't talk nonsense, it's a Liangzhou poem, it is a masterpiece of the sages, there is no plagiarism, it makes people laugh." ”
Mao Yulong laughed: "The Liangzhou words I said are Liangzhou words, and listen to the little brother singing." As he spoke, he raised his wine glass and sang loudly to the wide fields: "Far above the Yellow River, among the white clouds, a lonely city, ten thousand mountains." Why should Qiang Di complain, the spring breeze of the willows does not pass the jade gate. Just these few words, the two scribes were shocked at that time, and their jaws dropped on the ground.
Can plagiarism be like this? A Liangzhou poem, just with a different sentence, becomes a Liangzhou word, and the artistic conception is even more far-reaching, but if it is so neat, then all the Han and Tang poems can be so nonsense, this, this, this, this is too much.
Mao Yulong looked at the two brothers who were stunned by himself, turned his head to Song Yuanshan and said with a serious expression: "This is just a joke of breaking sentences. But it is this sentence that has so much magic, turning an ancient poem into a word, which can turn a contribution contract in everyone's unspoken rules into a completely different land purchase contract
This? ”
Song Yuanshan was stunned for a moment, and then fell into deep contemplation.
What Mao Yulong wants is this effect, the future Jiangnan Confucianism is still studying in the pile of old papers, and the result is that the knowledge is profound, but it is still inherited from the past. If I can instill something new in him at this time, will it be able to change the thinking of a great Confucian, and then change the atmosphere of a generation and beyond through him?
is a good teacher, and now Mao Yulong suddenly has this idea that pops up.
So he said to Song Yuanshan in an old-fashioned tone of a teacher: "The words of the sage, of course, have his reason for guiding the maze of eternity, but it has been passed down to this day, has it not been distorted because of this sentence?" For example, now everyone takes it out of context, and the gentleman repays his grievances with virtue, which everyone regards as a classic, but forgets that there is another sentence at the back, that is, how to repay virtue? ”
Song Yuanshan pondered, and Xu Jie pondered.
"And what is even more ridiculous is this sentence, which has poisoned the lives of the people for thousands of years because of the broken sentence."
"Which one?" At this time, Xu Jie also became interested and asked this brother who was much younger than himself. His face was already full of a look of seeking advice.
"The people can make it impossible to know it. There are fallacies for the ages. ”
Song Yuanshan raised his head and said puzzledly: "This is understood by Yasheng (Zhu Xi), is there anything wrong?" ”
For Zhu Xi's theory, which is now known as Yasheng, it has become a model for the interpretation of the Analects of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and has also become the standard for answering the classic questions of the college entrance examination. If you question Zhu Xi, it will not be far from being pointed out by Qianfu.
Mao Yulong suddenly mentioned him, and Song Yuanshan and Xu Jie couldn't help but look left and right, as if they were thieves.
Seeing that there were only a few servants around him, Song Yuanshan let out a sigh of relief, but still waved his hand and let the servants go away.
The Song family, a family of scribes at that time, even brought and hired slaves were not in vain, and when it came to the words of the sage, everyone understood it to some extent, and now what the three brothers are talking about may attract countless tongues, so it is better to be on guard.
For Song Yuanshan's caution, Mao Yulong smiled gratefully, now that Donglin is in vogue, if they hear their remarks, they will definitely criticize themselves, although they may gain the favor of the eunuch party, but the eunuch party has little time, there is no need to make trouble for himself. It's better not to offend both sides, so he said lightly: "The people can make it impossible to know it." You can break the sentence, and then there are two completely different results, for example, the people can make it, and they can't make it, and they know it. The people can make it happen, but they can't know it. "The rest is up to the two of you to understand. Then he stood up and shouted to Xiaoya: "Little sister, let's go home." Then the three of them and one dog went away in the afterglow of the setting sun. Lonely ministers at the end of the Ming Dynasty
