Originally! Fang Jishi was not optimistic about the young Confucius, thinking that he was an "angry youth".

When we were young, we were all angry youths.

I can listen to the young Confucius repeatedly say: It is because of social reasons, because of the reason of 'etiquette and happiness', that such a result is caused. Fang Jishi slowly understood: the reason why our saint was depressed was not because he was kicked out of the house by Shi Niang, nor because he did not inherit the ancestral business. But! I found a deeper reason.

Because it's troubled times, so! Most people will do whatever it takes to survive. Shi Niang's unscrupulous means are also forced by the social environment.

So! It's useless to resent Shi Niang. It is also useless to blame Shi Niang for his misfortune. In this troubled world, what if you inherit your ancestral business?

inherited the ancestral business, and can only live a stable life temporarily. And the road ahead is still up to us.

As a result, the young Confucius, our sage, no longer resents that Shi Niang, and no longer complains about the predicament he is facing. But when he faced this society, he faced the situation of bad etiquette and happiness, and he couldn't see any hope in life, so he was depressed. There was nowhere to vent the fire in his heart, so he plunged headlong into the river to vent himself in this way.

I heard Meng Pi say that the young Confucius was not only like this in summer, but also in winter, and he was like this, plunging headlong into the icy river water and freezing himself into a "purple man" before he came out.

The two talked for a while on the embankment before heading home. Along the way, the two continued to talk.

To Fang Jishi's great surprise: he found out that he and the young Confucius were very close to each other, and the two could talk very well.

It's true! No man shall be disguised, and no sea shall be measured.

The young Confucius was not handsome, except for the tall and thin man, there was also his face. The face of the young Confucius is also very special, not as full and white as that of modern teenagers, but quite the opposite! There are wrinkles on the face, and it looks very old-fashioned. He has a large face and prominent cheekbones.

But! If you eat better and have meat on your face, you should be very handsome.

But? It is conceivable that the height and physique of the young Confucius were left there, and he should have eaten a lot of food, and he should have often been unable to eat enough. If he had eaten enough, he should be able to eat the size of two people.

Now he lives with his brother Meng Pi. Because his brother has a leg disease, he can't do many things, and most of the time he needs his younger brother, who is not yet an adult, to support him.

It is precisely for this reason that Meng Pi is very dependent on and protective of the young Confucius and his Qiu brothers. The two of them are in that kind of interdependent relationship.

Soon arrived at the home of the young Confucius, the live broadcast has been on, and in the live broadcast room, everyone is watching quietly. When they saw the home of the young Confucius, and saw the dilapidated courtyard, everyone held their breath.

Everyone is thinking: In such an environment, we can become saints, we live in a new era, and if we don't work hard?

A talented man from a poor family is not a talented man, but a saint.

Thousands of mountains and rivers in the south of the Yangtze River, a saint in one place and one place in the north.

In silence, many fans have rewarded.

This reward is not for the anchor Fang Cornerstone, but! Coming for our saints.

In the courtyard, it was empty, and a well was in the corner of the courtyard with a wooden barrel on it. In the hall, Meng Pi and the guard were very busy.

Under the leadership of Meng Pi, the guards bought wine, meat, and some fresh vegetables. The wine and meat were already on the table, and the two were busy cooking fresh vegetables. On one side of the hall is a small kitchen. In the kitchen, there is a stove and a hanging pot on which water is boiling for cooking and cooking.

Fang Jishi asked another guard to stir-fry and make the staple food, and changed Meng Pi to eat together.

As for the food, he and the guards are the same, it doesn't matter. But for Confucius and Meng Pi, young people living in poverty, it is a problem to be able to eat enough, let alone eat fish and meat.

Let alone! At this time, the young Confucius was still developing his body, and he needed to eat better.

So! He asked Meng Pi to be replaced and eaten with him.

Furthermore! Meng Pi was Confucius's elder brother, and you can't just talk to Confucius and ignore your brother. If this were the case, the young Confucius would not have been willing.

It can be seen from the expression of the young Confucius that he cares about his brother very much, for fear that others will say that he does not respect his brother.

But except today, a friend from afar came and asked him to receive him personally. And also! He felt that he could talk well with this distant friend, and he was afraid that the conversation would be interrupted. So! He didn't go to the kitchen.

To Fang Jishi's surprise, Meng Pi did not come to eat and insisted on staying in the kitchen to cook.

The young Confucius also persuaded him to come and eat together, but Meng Pi just refused.

"Bring a plate!" Fang Jishi commanded.

One of the guards came over with a rough clay basin.

Fang Jishi took out a copy of the cooked vegetables he bought and left them for Meng Pi.

The guard carried the basin into the kitchen, and when Meng Pi saw that the dishes were reserved for him, he was so moved that he cried softly.

"Woo woo woo ......"

In the live broadcast room, although Meng Pi's expression could not be seen, Meng Pi's cry could be heard, and everyone was equally moved. thinks that the anchor has done a very good job and has not discriminated against the sage's brother. After seeing Confucius's family background, they were all surprised and sighed, worried about the future of the young Confucius.

It's true! How much perseverance and how much suffering does it take to be able to emerge as a saint from this environment?

Under this mood and psychological effect, the reward is naturally one wave after another.

"I'm a taxi! I'm not a Confucian! After three glasses of wine, the young Confucius seemed a little excited.

Fang Jishi just put aside a topic, and then just looked at him and listened to him vent.

The young Confucius began to introduce Fang Jishi, saying that his ancestors were all meritorious people in the Lu country, and he was a scholar. But? Due to the persecution of life, he had to take up another profession in order to survive.

This profession is "Confucianism".

A profession that specializes in the funeral of the deceased.

"I'm not a trumpeter! I know funeral etiquette, I know the funeral process, so I get paid more than others......"

Under the influence of alcohol, the young Confucius told him about his grievances of being discriminated against.

Originally! He was a scholar, but due to family reasons, he did not inherit the ancestral business and lived in Qufu.

In order to alleviate his mother's burden, he gave up his studies in formal school, secretly engaged in the "Confucian" industry, joined the "Confucian team", and handled funerals for others.

Because he has a good memory and is willing to consult his predecessors, he is very familiar with funeral etiquette and funeral procedures. So! People around him will come to him for funerals.

In order to earn an extra piece of silver, he did everything. In the funeral procession, he not only blows the trumpet, but he also does other things.

Only by doing more things will people be willing to give you more money and be willing to invite you.

According to the social hierarchy at that time, as a "scholar" class, he should not engage in such a lowly profession as "Confucianism". So! He was discriminated against by a lot of people.

But! He doesn't have this kind of profession, if he doesn't have a profession in life? How did he survive?

So! In this dilemma, the young Confucius was very depressed.

From now on! He began to think about life.
