Sun Dan was silent for a moment, looked at Chen Hongxiao and said quietly: "I want you to become a real person." ”

"Really?" Chen Hong looked at his beloved teacher with some puzzlement.

"So, what is a real person?" Sun Dan picked up the pen, dipped it in ink and wrote a big glyph on the wall, and said loudly: "The so-called human character is a stroke on the left and a pinch on the right. I know that you are all eunuchs, because of that knife, many people feel that they are inferior, do you think so? ”

All the little eunuchs fell silent.

Sun Dan: "However, entering the palace to receive this knife is also a last resort, you are all born in poor families, if you don't enter the palace, I'm afraid you will starve to death." But because there are three unfilial pieties, and there is no queen, the parents who suffer from the skin of the body are so injured and mutilated. It's really a big unfilial piety. However, there is no way to do it, who is willing to go to such a place? ”

Sun Dan's words touched the most secret place in everyone's hearts, and the little eunuchs hurt themselves, and their eyes were red. "Although people outside look down on you, can you look down on yourself?" Sun Dan said loudly: "Answer me." ”

There is no backlash

Sun Dan pointed to a little eunuch: "Yuan Fucheng, I know you." You are from Baoding Mansion, you were only ten years old that year, and your father injured his leg while working. The family is also poor, and the family has not eaten for three days. If you don't get the money as soon as possible, not only will your father's leg not be saved, but the whole family will starve to death. That's it, you picked up a kitchen knife and entered the imperial city from the palace to become a eunuch. With the money from selling your body, your family finally survived that famine year. Many of the people who enter the palace are sold by their families or human traffickers, but there are really not many people like you who cut themselves off, and because of this, many people can't look at it, and even the eunuchs in the palace are disdainful when they mention you. You say, isn't that so? ”

The little eunuch named Yuan Fucheng who was named nodded: "Yes sir, not only people inside and outside the palace look down on me, but even I look down on myself. I didn't think much of it when I didn't read before, but now that I am literate and understand things, my heart is bleeding every time I think about it. ”

He was a determined person, otherwise he would not have been able to castrate himself back then. But because of this, he has a lot more self-esteem than ordinary people. Thinking of the situation when he cut it with a knife, and when he thought of the pain of brushing the stubble after entering the palace because he didn't cut it clean, Yuan Fucheng couldn't help but shudder.

"You shouldn't think that way, if people don't even know how to respect themselves, how can they be respected by others. You are my student, and if you do this again, Hugh will speak of me as a gentleman in front of others. Sun Dan shouted angrily at him, and then turned his head and asked everyone: "In my opinion, Yuan Fucheng sacrificed his life to save his father, which is the greatest filial piety in the world and the world, and he is a pure and pure child." You say, "Is that so?" ”

"Yes!" The crowd shouted at the same time.

"Isn't it?"

"Yes!" The students were excited.

Sun Dan walked in front of Yuan Fucheng and suddenly took a deep look.

Yuan Fucheng was shocked and hurriedly knelt on the ground. I couldn't stop crying: "Sir, how can a student afford it!" ”

Sun Dan helped him up: "I'm not worshipping you, I'm a good man with a conscience and a human touch in worshipping heaven and earth." A good Yuan Fucheng, you are worthy of my Sun Dan's worship, and you are worthy of a big human character. ”

"Sir!" Yuan Fucheng burst into tears, trembling all over his body.

Sun Dan let go of Yuan Fucheng, and pointed to another little eunuch and said, "Gao Wu, you were only five years old when you entered the palace, and you were sold in by human traffickers. You didn't understand anything at the time, so what responsibility did you have. If people outside don't condemn those traffickers who have lost their conscience, why should they call you "eunuchs."? Answer, are you human? ”

Gao replied loudly, "Sir." I'm not a gelding. I am human. Speaking of this, he was already in tears, "Sir, I don't want to be like this, but God has arranged it like this, what can I do." I'm a little older, and I haven't done anything bad, a few days ago, when I went out of the palace, I met a scholar "him", why did he spit on me, why did he call me a little eunuch

Sun Dan: "In the past, the reason why your eunuchs had a bad reputation was because there were many so-called traitors, such as Qian Ning. However, are there still few traitors among the foreign ministers, isn't Jiang Bin a foreign minister? And the Three Treasures Eunuch Zheng He, is he a bad person? Zhang Chengyi in the fifth dynasty was not also a famous minister through the ages, they were all eunuchs! Therefore, it is not important who a person is, the key is to see what he has done? You are all my students, you must not belittle yourself, and in the future, you can do things generously and stand up to the sky. ”

"Are we normal people?" Almost all the little eunuchs flashed this one in their hearts. Doubt.

Probably seeing the students' thoughts, Sun Dan laughed loudly: "You are all normal people, in the teacher's mind, you are no different from the children outside." What's the big deal about being stabbed, there are still a lot of disabled people out there with broken hands and feet? Do those who have broken legs and hands look down on themselves? ”

Sun Dan: "After reading the sages for so many years, don't you have the slightest bit of grandeur in your hearts?" ”

He picked up his pen again and wrote four big words on the wall: "Self-esteem, self-improvement." ”

Then he threw the pen on the ground, "School's out, goodbye." ”

I don't know when the spring rain fell, and the entire Xiyuan was shrouded in a thick mist.

The flowers and trees that have passed the rain are green and shining. The scent of plants fills the air.

Sun Dan walked in front, and a group of students followed silently.

No one spoke, it was silence after a long time together.

This silence is not rusty, but a tacit understanding.

All the trainees were wet on their faces, and they didn't know if it was rain or tears.

Chen Hong took off his palace clothes and held it high on Sun Dan's head to cover the rain for his teacher.

"Go back, go back." Sun Dan turned his head and glanced at everyone: "It's already about to go out of the realm of the inner study hall, this is the West Garden, it's not good for others to see it." ”

"Send sir." Chen half knelt down.

More than 30 students also knelt on the mud floor at the same time.

At this time, the inner study hall was opened, and the hustle and bustle of the students was faintly heard.

Then came the school song composed by Sun Dan:

"The blue clouds of the West Mountain are refreshing,

Jingbei Lugou Xiaoyue.

Look at the clouds of our school,

Sit in the middle of it.

Half of the city is full of reading,

The hustle and bustle of the city is far away.

Tao Li is speechless,

Helping the spring breeze.

May the young man, he never forget to turn into a rain"
