Chapter 10: Such a Big Brother

Through Professor Zhang's narration, Xiao Guozi generally knows the heroic deeds of his eldest brother.

In this academy, there are some very outstanding talents, such as those who are particularly good at reading, especially good at drawing, and those who are particularly naughty, the typical characters in this are Wang Yong and Liu Zhi, they are only ten years old, but relying on the power of the family, they have become gentlemen, focusing on a group of teenagers around them, fighting cocks and lackeys all day long, not doing their jobs, and often bullying their classmates, which makes the professors have a headache, but they are helpless, because although these two people have done some bad things, they are not big evils, The teacher went to their house to sue them several times, but it didn't work, and the two families were very powerful in the local area, and the academy couldn't afford to offend them, and it was not easy to persuade them to return home, so as time went on, their reputation became bigger and bigger. There are often some students in the college who are bullied by them, although they are all innocuous and trivial things, but there are many things and quite a headache. The one who is bullied the most is the big brother of the little pot.

Generally speaking, when people grow fat, they will be slower to act, and slow action will make people feel more stupid, so as soon as Cao Xiwen arrived at school, of course, he became the target of these people, first giving him a nickname, and then teasing him, putting insects in his schoolbag, drawing pig's heads on books, and later, every time I saw him, I would stop him, tease him, or directly grab his schoolbag and run, leading him to chase after him, so tired that he couldn't breathe, and he foamed at the mouth before giving up.

In the beginning, the fat man would sue the teacher, but after the teacher punished the students, the fat man would be retaliated against. The fat man went back and told his parents that although his parents had a certain amount of money, they were just ordinary businessmen and could not fight against the two families with official backgrounds, so they had to comfort the fat man and keep them away from those bad children.

To sum up, Xiao Guozi sadly found that he actually worshipped the weakest person in the whole academy as his eldest brother, and the original little fat man lived at the bottom of the academy.

And now, it's him.

The so-called Shi Ke is unbearable, no matter how bad he is, he will not call a person who can be bullied by the whole hospital as a big brother, if this matter spreads, how will he behave in the future?

Xiao Guozi decided to talk to that hateful fat man, let me call you big brother, it's really a dream, even if you come to be my little brother, I still have to think about it.

Xiao Guozi stood there indignant, indignant, and wanted to run out immediately to settle accounts with the little fat man, but Professor Zhang didn't let him leave, saying that he had something to talk to him, so Xiao Guozi had to hold back his sullen breath and stand quietly aside and wait.

Professor Zhang turned around, finished the painting, wrote the poem, and looked left and right before drying the ink and putting the painting away.

"Little pot, go, make me a pot of tea." The professor picked up a polished purple sand teapot from the table, grabbed a little tea from the small clay pot by the bookshelf, and threw it into the pot.

In the corner of the professor's room was a small red clay stove with a kettle on top of it, and white smoke was billowing from it.

"Attention, don't break my pot, this is authentic Yixing purple sand, you can't afford to break it." The professor couldn't help but remind him when he saw the hairy appearance of the small pot.

After making the tea, the small pot stood aside in a regular manner, the professor took a leisurely sip of tea, tapped the table with his fingers, thought for a while, and said: "Little pot, since you have come to me now, then you must understand some rules, and you must understand what you do every day, I took you in because I saw that you were pitiful, so you must be diligent in your work, treat others sincerely, be kind, and never go down the evil path, and I will tell you what you have to do every day, after these things are done, you are free, if you want to study, you can audit the courses of the college." If you want to play, you can also go to the street, you can read all the books on the shelves in my room, but if I find out that you have bad habits, I will immediately expel you, do you know? ”

"The little pot has no teeth for Mr. Dade, and will not disappoint Mr. What he expects." The little pot said seriously.

"Well, I hope you didn't see the wrong person this time, and I also hope that you can have a good home in the academy, I have set three rules for you, you must strictly abide by them, first, don't steal, don't do evil, don't do illegal things; second, respect teachers, respect elders, and get along with classmates; Third, be diligent with your hands and feet, and if you have something in your eyes, you should not steal or play tricks. What are you likely to do? The professor asked.

"The kid can do it." The little pot bowed.

Professor Zhang looked at the small pot standing straight, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then told the little pot some things to do every day, and asked the little pot to write down, in fact, there are not too many, that is, the room needs to be cleaned every day, breakfast is bought for the professor in the morning, and the professor has to grind ink and paper when he writes and draws, which are all daily affairs. You don't need to do anything to buy vegetables and cook food, the academy has a teacher's canteen, and for other heavy work, the academy has also invited some people to help, so the small pot is not very hard.

Xiao Guozi listened to the professor's words as if he was facing a great enemy, and began to think that the professor was going to let him do a lot of things that were difficult to accomplish, but finally found that there was actually nothing, it was quite easy, and he couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

Don't think about the trouble here of the professor, naturally another troublesome thing comes to mind, the matter of thinking that the dead fat man is the big brother must be solved in time, if it takes a long time, I am afraid that one will pass ten, ten will pass hundred, I just don't think about this dead fat man's little brother It is estimated that it will not be, no, it must be completed as soon as possible, Xiao Guozi said to himself secretly.

"Little pot, what are you thinking?" The professor noticed that he didn't look like he belonged.

"Sir, I was thinking, that Cao Xiwen asked me to call him the eldest brother, I didn't know at the time, I was deceived, I was thinking about how to solve this matter." The small pot answered truthfully.

"Actually, this Cao Xiwen is a very smart person, with a good memory, and he can also learn to bypass, and he is also an honest and honest person, with a good heart, just because he is fat and slow, so he is always regarded as stupid, and after a long time, many people ignore the things he learns well, and really regard him as a stupid person, you think he is a big brother, but he really doesn't suffer anything." The professor laughed.

"You said that he is often bullied by other classmates, then I am his little brother, and I must not be bullied to death in the future?" The small pot is a little urgent.

"Why is it said that if the eldest brother is bullied by others, the younger brother will definitely be bullied by others? Could it be that in a family, the eldest is a wreck, so the second must also be a wreck? Whether or not you are bullied by others depends not on where you were born, nor on your size, but on here. "The professor pointed to his head." It depends on whether you have a self-reliant heart and the courage to not be afraid of violence. ”

"Sir, I see." The eyes of the small pot lit up. "What Mr. means is that if someone bullies Cao Xiwen in the future, forget it, and if someone bullies me, I will break his leg with a stick."

"Poof~" The professor just drank a sip of hot tea into his mouth, and when he heard this sentence, he couldn't help but squirt out, spraying the face of the small pot, and dripping down the face of the small pot.

"Bastard, how can you understand it like that." The gentleman coughed a few times, his face was a little swollen and red, "We are scholars, and we must convince people with reason in everything, how can we fight and fight like ordinary people in the market?" Not to mention whether you can win or not, even if you can, you can't bully the weak by force, you know? ”

"Sir, I really don't want to be his little brother." The little pot whispered.

"This matter can only be solved by yourself, whether you do it or not, there must be a proper solution" The professor calmed his mind.

"If I tell Cao Xiwen that I don't want to be his little brother anymore, he will definitely not agree, and he will definitely scold me for not keeping integrity, hey, he said that Zhuangzi has said that people must have integrity and always, what should I do?" The face of the little pot is almost crumpled.

"What did Zhuangzi say?" The professor wondered.

"Cao Xiwen said to me that Zhuangzi once said: Don't forget what is the beginning, and then what is the end, I can't remember a long list, saying that if I refuse to recognize him as a big brother halfway, I am a person without integrity."

"Don't forget where it started, don't seek where it ends. Isn't that the sentence? I'm so angry, how did this sentence come to mean that there must be a beginning and an end? It's really unlearned and unskilled, misinterpreting the classics. What this actually means is that when you decide to do something, don't forget why you did it in the first place. But when you actually get started, don't force the end result, because it's the process that matters, not the result. He, he, how can it be interpreted as having a beginning and an end? The professor was a little angry and walked around the room.

Suddenly, he stopped, then stared at the small pot, as if he understood something, and patted his head: "This Cao Xiwen, don't say it, it's really a little clever." ”
