Chapter 454: Tricks (Medium)
Huineng: "Ah, it's strange that people can change like this. ”
Zhu Deren waved his hand in disbelief: "My two sons are human, and these two are monkeys. No matter how my two sons change, they won't become so outrageous. ”
Deren's wife: "You're colluding with me, aren't you?" ”
The old lady of the Zhu family: "I am your mother, how can I even lie to my son?" ”
Zhu Deyi: "Brother Deren, your words are just slapping yourself in the mouth." Didn't you say earlier that everything in the world is changing? ”
Huineng: "Yes, things in the world are changing all the time. ”
The old lady of the Zhu family saw that Hui Neng nodded to her, and knew that the time was ripe, so she said bluntly: "Yes, what Deyi stored with you was obviously two jars of silver with white flowers left by his father when he was dying, and after a while, when you returned it to him, it turned into two jars of stone." ”
Hearing the words of the old lady of the Zhu family, Zhu Deren was not a stupid person, and knew that she was referring to the two jars of silver that she had swallowed her younger brother Deyi, and closed her mouth and thought about it.
Huineng raised her voice: "Since silver can be turned into stone for no reason, then it is reasonable for your two sons to become two monkeys!" ”
Zhu Deren had suffered from Huineng in the bet, and he was not angry, his triangular eyes were round, and he looked at Huineng and asked: "This is our family matter, and we don't need you, an outsider, to interfere!" ”
The old lady of the Zhu family didn't wait for Hui Neng to answer, and grabbed the words: "He didn't come to intervene, but I and Deyi invited him into the house." ”
Huineng replied tepidly: "Earlier, when you made a bet with Liang Yaofu in the cave ruins, didn't you praise me in public for understanding things and upholding justice. Do you still like people like you and me the most? ”
Indeed, these words were spoken by Zhu Deren himself, and now they are being used by Hui Neng to deal with himself. Therefore, being a general like Huineng, he could only be anxious, his sharp face was flushed, but he couldn't say anything to refute Huineng, just hesitated: "I...... I ......"
Zhu Deyi pointed to Huineng and said to Zhu Deren: "Brother Deren, what he said is indeed reasonable. ”
Huineng: "Everyone shovels the uneven road, and everyone helps if the big thing is uneven." This is how things and reason in the world are. ”
Zhu Deren knew that he would lift a stone and hit his own feet, crying and mourning, and pleaded with the old lady of the Zhu family: "Mother, I am your biological son, for the sake of family affection, don't play any tricks with me anymore." I beseech thee, give me back my two sons. ”
Deren's wife cried and beat her chest: "Ah Fu and Ah Gui are my hearts, if they have any winter melon and tofu, I don't want to live." I beseech you, my lord, that you have a great abundance, and give us your son back today. ”
The old lady of the Zhu family spit out all the bitter water that had been accumulating in her stomach: "Deren, sister-in-law, what kind of family affection will you talk about now?!" If you really regarded me as a mother, you two would not have used such despicable means to cheat the righteous money. You will do whatever it takes to find those ill-gotten gains. But Deyi is different from you, he is an honest man who only knows how to get rich through labor. And thy father was justified before he died, and he divided some of his possessions and his silver into two parts, and your brothers each had two jars. You already have a family of sons. And the silver that is righteous is to marry a wife and pay a dowry, and it can be used to do a small business and support me. You have cheated him out of what little money he has, do you think that after I die, he will have no one to live on? ”
Huineng: "Your mother is right. ”
Zhu Deren: "It doesn't make much sense to talk about it now, the most important thing is to return the two sons to me." ”
Deren's wife: "Yes, Deyi, even if Deren and I couldn't stand you before." But my two sons are your own nephews after all! ”
Huineng gave Zhu Deren a step down: "Deren, your means of change are clever. Since you can turn your brother's silver into stone, you should have the ability to turn the stone back into silver, right? ”
Zhu Deren: "This ......"
Deren's wife pushed Zhu Deren, pointed to the two clay pots with stones in the corner, and glanced at him: "What are you still pushing three or four here, this time you can't shake the pot without oil." And bring back the two jars of silver that thou shalt be righteous. ”
Although Zhu Deren is greedy for money, what is now in front of him is: should he continue to be greedy for those two jars of silver, or use them to exchange them for two biological sons? This made his mind tumble and he couldn't calm down.
The old lady of the Zhu family knew that Zhu Deren had always been an iron rooster that did not pull out a hair, and it would not be so easy to spit it out when the silver entered his stomach, so she wanted to impress him with family affection: "Deren, you and Deyi are my biological sons, the hand is meat, and the back of the hand is also meat." This time, I am not helping the person who is righteous, but helping the reason, I hope you can see the brother's affection and return the silver that belongs to the righteousness to him. ”
Huineng said to Zhu Deren: "Your mother is right, ill-gotten wealth cannot be obtained. The things of the world are yours and yours; It's not yours, and you won't be able to get it even if you play all the tricks. ”
The old lady of the Zhu family: "Deren, I saw that you twisted all the six pieces for that little money, and even your own brother came to deceive, completely ignoring the family affection connected by flesh and blood, I, who is a mother, my heart hurts!" ,”
Huineng spoke very seriously: "The money is gone, and you can get it back through other methods." But without family affection, what is the point of living alone in the world? So money is valuable, but in comparison, family affection is more precious! ”
Zhu Deren cried with a sad face, and wanted to deny it, but he couldn't think of a pit plan anymore, so he had to say: "You have a point." ”
Huineng: "The greatest kindness of being a person is to be filial to your parents, but you don't even listen to your mother's words." The greatest righteousness is to have compassion for each other. If you are humble to each other, you will get along with each other and help each other in harmony. True repentance is in reform. ”
Huineng's words shot like an arrow into Zhu Deren's heart: "This ......"
The old lady of the Zhu family looked at Huineng: "What you said is like a great monk of Buddhism, right." ”
"I'm just speaking what I'm thinking," Huineng said to Zhu Deren, "goodness is the source of happiness." Do a good deed every day, and increase virtue by three points. I hope that through this incident, you will change your bad roots, so that you can put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the ground. ”
Zhu Deren felt aggrieved, stretched out his hands, spread his palms, and flipped over: "Hey, I have never used a knife to make a sword, why do you want me to put down the butcher knife?" ”
Huineng said coldly: "The knife made of steel can certainly become a butcher's knife for killing people and seeing blood, but the greed in your heart is also a butcher's knife!" The butcher's knife in your hearts will harm others and yourself. ”
The old lady of the Zhu family: "Yes, I can also listen to the Buddhist words spoken by this brother, and I know my son's mother's heart." Deben, Deben, over the years, you have done too many immoral things, and now even your own brothers have to deceive, this is intolerable, and it will make you lose your life! ”
Huineng: "If there is a way, a saint will make mistakes. But knowing that mistakes can be corrected must be a wise person, if you protect your shortcomings, you are not a wise person in your heart. ”
Zhu Deren was blushing when Huineng and the old lady of the Zhu family said: "I ...... I'll try to change it in the future. ”
The old lady of the Zhu family: "Deren, don't say that it will be in the future, do you want my two grandsons to change from monkeys to humans in the future?" ”
Zhu Deren: "Mother, what do you mean?" ”
The old lady of the Zhu family said sincerely: "Deren, you and Deyi are biological brothers, but even if you break your foot bones, you are also connected to the tendons." Now return the two jars of silver to Deyi and correct your mistakes. ”
