Chapter 240: The Beginning of the Ground
Seeing that Xiangzi's face was gloomy again, Lu Kui smiled sadly and said, "Everything is predetermined, and it is not up to anyone at all." In all dynasties, before and after the change of dynasties, there have always been some strange things happening. It is not surprising that the Kong family has today. ”
Seeing Xiangzi looking at himself blankly, Lu Kui sighed lightly and said, "I have seen that the two generations of the Confucius family are too kind. Before the liberation, the magistrate of Kong County regarded the common people as his own family. After liberation, he still regarded the affairs of the common people as his own affairs. In response to the peaceful uprising, he actively participated in the construction of the government, and never considered personal gains and losses.
This kind of person, if he is either a great loyalty, is a great traitor. In today's world, it is rare to see such a loyal person. Therefore, the better the reputation of the Kong family, the more suspicious it is that he has ulterior motives.
In this case, as long as there is a little bit of unfavorable rhetoric for the Kong family, even if it is a shadow of the wind, it is nothing. The people of the new government will believe in it and will not be able to extricate themselves. will find ways to confirm their speculations. So, it's not surprising for me to say at all. ”
Xiangzi smiled bitterly at Lu Kui and said, "Brother Lu is really condescending if he doesn't enter the court to be an official." ”
Lu Kui smiled "haha" and said, "I only understood it when I stayed out of the matter." If I really entered the yamen, I might be even more confused than them. Besides, with my stinky temper, it won't take two years for the family to die. ”
Xiangzi smiled and nodded, and said contemplatively: "Brother Lu's words have the flavor of Buddhism, do you also study Buddhism?" ”
When Lu Kui heard this, he smiled humbly: "I can't talk about learning, but I just know a little bit about it." For thousands of years, the cultures of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism have been fused together. Although Buddhism is a foreign culture, it has greatly enriched the local culture and given a deeper meaning to the traditional culture.
For example, in the Confucian "Di Zi Gui", the traditional interpretation of the word "many" is mostly limited to the scope of people, but the "many" referred to in Buddhist culture refers to the phenomenon of the harmony of all fate. This includes not only people and animals, but also mountains, rivers, earth, plants and minerals.
Confucianism believes that this explanation is naturally adopted. For another example, in the "Three Character Classic", at the beginning of human beings, the word 'good' is inherently good, and the tradition is mostly interpreted as the good of good and evil. And Buddhist culture interprets it as the meaning of perfection. Confucianism embraced it.
With the passage of time, many Confucian ethical and moral concepts and ways of dealing with the world have gradually infiltrated into Buddhist culture and become an introductory course for Buddhist learning. The truth in this is very deep, and I only know a little bit about it, so you can smile. ”
Xiangzi smiled happily and said, "Listening to Brother Lu's words, it is really better than reading for ten years and learning a lot." ”
Lu Kui smiled modestly and said, "Where, I have long heard that you are well versed in Buddhism. Talking about the Buddha wheel in front of you is simply an axe that makes you smile. ”
Xiangzi hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Brother Lu is too humble, who doesn't know that you are a talented person who reads poetry and books." Farming here is Qu Caili. ”
Lu Kui smiled and said, "It seems that you haven't experienced the fun of farming yet. To be honest, give me another ten acres of land to plant, and it is not uncommon for me to be a county magistrate. ”
Seeing Lu Kui's elated look, Xiangzi smiled happily and said, "I feel the taste of tranquility and far-reaching from Brother Lu. You are to nourish your heart with the traditional culture you have learned, and to nourish your body by fiddling with your beloved land. When you think about it, it can be regarded as a free and free fairy day. ”
Lu Kui laughed when he heard it and said, "Those who know me are also flying dragon heroes." ”
The two of them were talking humbly, when they saw a slim girl walking lightly on the path on the side of the ground.
I saw the girl glance at Xiangzi shyly, and whispered to Lu Kui: "Great, my mother asked, what do you want to eat at night." ”
Lu Kui said without thinking: "Kill a chicken and get two dishes." Let's just say that an old friend has come to the house for dinner. ”
As he spoke, Chong Xiangzi smiled modestly and said to the girl: "This is what I often tell you about Uncle Flying Dragon, don't come and call someone soon." ”
The girl was stunned for a moment, and then her face flushed with excitement. Chong Xiangzi bowed deeply and said, "It turned out to be Uncle Feilong, I finally saw you." ”
Xiangzi looked at Lu Kui in a daze and muttered, "She can't be Xiuyun, right?" ”
Lu Kui grinned and said, "Who else can she be." ”
Xiangzi looked surprised, and said with a smile: "Oh, they have grown into big girls, and when I was a child, I hugged me." ”
Crimson climbed onto Xiuyun's cheeks again, and she bowed to Shoko again in a slightly flustered manner, then flicked her two big braids and walked back.
Shoko hurriedly shouted, "Don't kill the chicken!" Tell your mother, just make a bowl of slurry on the surface of the water. ”
Lu Kui also shouted at the top of his voice: "Do as I say!" Sharper. ”
Xiangzi shouted a little anxiously, "If you don't listen to me, you won't go to your house." ”
Xiuyun froze there in a moment's embarrassment. Seeing that Lu Kui was choked and speechless, Xiangzi continued softly: "Brother Lu, if you treat me as a brother, just do as I say, I will be hungry for my sister-in-law's mouthful of water." When I beat Ma Zhongying, I can eat two meals in three days. Since you moved out, I have eaten a few restaurants, and I always feel that it is not as authentic as my sister-in-law's cooking. ”
Lu Kui smiled "hehe" and said: "This is not a blow, your sister-in-law's family sells slurry water in her hometown, and they all eat his family in ten miles and eight villages." ”
Xiangzi subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of something, and smiled happily: "No wonder it tastes so good, it turns out to be an ancestral craft." ”
Seeing that Xiuyun was still standing there, he smiled on his toes on the ground. Lu Kui seemed to suddenly remember something, and shouted at her: "What are you doing, let's get your mother a few bowls of slurry." ”
Xiuyun's mouth responded, and his body had disappeared into the green curtain of weeds like a willow.
Xiangzi looked at Xiuyun's distant back with pity, and said with a sigh: "The days go by really fast, in the blink of an eye, Xiuyun has become a big girl, Xu people?" ”
Lu Kui grinned and said, "I have long promised to grin, and the two families have ordered a baby kiss." It's Li Zhaolin's house in the blacksmith shop on Dongguan Street, you know it too, right? ”
Xiangzi smiled happily and said, "Why don't you know me?" When I beat Ma Zhongying, I didn't deal with him less. ”
Lu Kui comfortably loaded the cigarette pouch and said with interest: "That's still a matter of beating Ma Zhongying and guarding the city wall." At that time, the two of us were in charge of boiling water, and the bullets flew overhead like frightened locusts.
My two cats were behind the firewood, and they said yes, if the two of us die, the one who is alive will take care of the two families. If neither of them dies, they will be married. The eldest baby of the Li family is exactly two years older than Xiuyun. ”
Xiangzi smiled happily and said, "I didn't expect you to be a baby in the war." ”
As he spoke, he muttered contemplatively: "I haven't seen Li Zhaolin all the time, I have been in front of his shop several times, and I haven't seen him in person." ”
Lu Kui smiled and said: "People have been enjoying Qingfu for a long time, and when they stand with a sore leg, they will hand over the shop to the apprentice and the second child to take care of, and do some fine work in the backyard by themselves." ”
As he spoke, the sun was already hanging on the horizon, and the colorful afterglow warmed everything in front of him. It makes people feel that tomorrow's morning light will be even more beautiful.
