Volume 1: The Twin Towers Chapter 80: Parents are their children's best teachers
Lu Yiqian loves to drink, but he is not a good drinker, and after a few glasses of old wine, a trace of drunkenness has appeared on his face.
Although it was Lu Yao's first time drinking, after all, he was young, and because of his cultivation, he didn't have much reaction.
Many people drink too much and talk a lot, but this father and son are the opposite.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors, the words of the two of them became less and less, and the atmosphere became a little dull
Although the relationship between the father and son is deep, perhaps because there is no woman in the family, the love between the two people seems a little deep.
No one is a person who is good at expressing his inner feelings.
Especially Lu Yiqian, the pair of Lu Yao loves Lu Yao in every way on weekdays, holding it in his hand for fear of falling, and holding it in his mouth for fear of melting.
Anything that is a little rare or good, the instinctive reaction will think of leaving it to Lu Yao.
But if you let him say something to his face, it will never be possible.
In this respect, he is exactly like most fathers.
When I was a child, I might be able to say some more doting words, but as the child grows older, emotional and more direct words such as "Baby, Daddy loves you" and "Son, Daddy misses you" will never be said again.
However, even so, the other children were much luckier than Lu Yao.
Although the father is not good at expressing such feelings, fortunately, there is such an amiable person as the mother at home to play this role, and the children will not feel anything unusual.
But Lu Yao didn't have a mother, to be more precise, Lu Yao had never seen his mother, so as he grew older day by day, he never heard these words from Lu Yiqian's mouth again.
Today is the end of Lu Yao's high school career, and after today, he doesn't need to go to school anymore.
For the upcoming college entrance examination that is enough to change the fate of a family, I believe that with Lu Yao's current strength, the admission letter of any university in China should be within his hands for him.
Of course, there are always two sides to things, and this situation means that there are not many opportunities for father and son to sit down and eat face-to-face from the beginning of the day.
Universities are usually chosen to start in early September every year, so in September, Lu Yao must step on the eastbound train and leave his hometown to go to school alone.
Although both of them had been looking forward to this day for a long time, when it really stepped on the Hot Wheels and was about to come, they hoped that he would come slowly
Although Lu Yao is not good at speaking, he is very sensible, and he knows that in such a situation, it will be better for him to speak first, so he drank a glass of water to moisten his throat, and said: "Godfather, I will take the college entrance examination in a few days!" ”
"Well, I know, take the test well, don't be nervous, give full play to what you usually learn, even if you don't do well in the final exam, it doesn't matter, godfather just hopes that you don't leave any regrets!" Lu Yiqian put down the wine glass and chopsticks in his hand and said earnestly.
"If nothing else, I should be able to get into Xijing University!"
"Oh, that's fine, manly man, it's always good to do what you say, after all, you promised Ruoyun that you would go to Xijing University with others, so you fulfilled your promise to others!" Lu Yiqian paused after hearing this, and then said.
"Godfather, I want you to go to Xijing with me, do you think about it?" Lu Yao carefully observed Lu Yiqian's face and said.
"No, no! Godfather is old, and he can't help you when he gets there, but following you will drag you down and delay your studies! Lu Yiqian said it without thinking about it, but Lu Yao knew that his godfather must have thought about these excuses a long time ago, otherwise he wouldn't have said it so smoothly.
"I heard that there are many ways to make money in big cities, and Teacher Yang told me that with my grades, it is not difficult to find a part-time job as a tutor with a monthly salary of two or three thousand over there, so I want you to go with me, and we will take care of it when we get there!" Lu Yao is still insisting.
He also thought about these words for a long time, even before the heart surgery, but Lu Yao didn't have enough capital to say these things before.
He was afraid that when he went to a big city, the father and son would have no way to make money. If you purely look for some hard work, and you are afraid that the honest godfather will be bullied.
Because Lu Yao knew that those contractors on the construction site liked to bully honest people the most, at least this is the case here in Shuangta City, where they were bullied on the construction site before.
Rather than this, it is better to let the godfather stay in Shuangta City, although there are no relatives here, but after so many years, there are always some workers who work together, and they can't say that they will take care of each other.
But all this was considered before, and now Lu Yao doesn't have to think about his livelihood at all.
With his Qihuang technique and alchemy, if he wants to make money, it is not easy to catch it, not to mention that with the improvement of his cultivation in the future, there are many more advanced skills to teach him in Lijiang.
But the difficulty now is that I can't tell my godfather everything that happened to me, and there is no better reason to convince my godfather.
After listening to Lu Yiqian's words, for a while, although he insisted, he also made some difficulties.
When Lu Yiqian saw Lu Yao's appearance, he wanted to agree, but after thinking of some things, he could only say ruthlessly: "Forget it, let's not talk about whether you can afford to find a part-time job, just for me, I'm not used to being a rural villager in a big city!" ”
"But ......"
"Okay, there's nothing to do, when you succeed in your studies in the future, marry a wife and have children, it's okay for your godfather to show you the children, now I'm still staying here, taking advantage of the brute force of the handle, to save you some wife, so as not to let the girl's family point at you when you say irresponsible things!" Lu Yiqian directly interrupted Lu Yao's words, and found an excuse commonly used by Huaguo's parents to shirk the past.
At this time, Lu Yao felt uncomfortable being scratched by a cat.
I obviously have the ability to support my godfather, so he doesn't have to work so hard, but he can't say all these words.
Because of his words and deeds after leaving Xinjiang during this period of time and what he has seen and heard, Lu Yao knows that with his current strength, he is not sure enough to protect his relatives around him.
The city of Twin Towers is so small that it is placed on the map of Huaguo, with only a small black dot the size of a sesame mung bean.
But even in such a small place, Lu Yao still met Qian Hu, a yellow-level master, and even Jin Yulong, an immortal cultivator who was not in the Xuanhuang level division of heaven and earth.
Lu Yao didn't dare to think about it, looking at the whole of China, the whole of Asia, and the whole earth, would there be more heaven-level masters or immortal cultivators, and since the role of immortal cultivators appeared in Huaguo, would there be vampires, werewolves, and other species that exist in legends and novels in some other countries such as Europe?
If things are really the same as you imagined, then how sure can you deal with these masters when you face them?
If he was really impulsive at this time and told Lu Yiqian something about himself, then his heart would be comfortable, but it would bring great danger to Lu Yiqian.
The more you know, the more dangerous it becomes.
This truth is the same as in the ancient court and in the modern world.
Although Lu Yiqian was a little drunk, he also knew that Lu Yao was not dead.
"There are those who were born to be in a hurry, to finish their studies, careers, get married, have children, and do everything in an orderly manner, rushing to complete most of the tasks in the first thirty years of their lives, and then spend the rest of their time tinkering and enduring, and learning to enjoy their suffering. And some people's life tasks may only be half completed, but they have seen the scenery that others can only see in several lifetimes, you can't say that any choice is wrong, really, just be happy! Lu Yiqian remembered that some time ago, he heard some people in the martial arts hall talk about life when this sentence was very reasonable, so he moved him here and told Lu Yao to listen.
Lu Yao knew that if he continued to talk, it would obviously have no effect, so he no longer dwelled on this matter.
In a hundred years of life, there is not much time to squander, it is said that happiness is like drinking water, cold and warm self-knowledge, some people, every day on the road to chasing happiness, but never feel the existence of happiness; Some people, who know how to collect little bits of warmth and touch, will walk with happiness.
Life is actually a choice, and only by giving up can we live a full, full, and prosperous life in a limited life. Without a bold renunciation, there is no brilliant choice. Renunciation is a kind of spiritual awakening, a manifestation of wisdom, just like letting a bird return to the forest and a fish into the water. Learn to give up, and you will gain something. When the dust settles, when everything is calm, we will truly understand that giving up is actually another beautiful harvest.
These two sentences about life are the two sentences that Lu Yao saw from the book and deeply engraved in his mind when he was crisscrossing the book city again, about life, Lu Yao's experience is not enough, and the accumulation is not enough, so he can't say the thought-provoking words like his godfather Lu Yiqian.
But there is one sentence that he thinks is the most appropriate way to describe his godfather - if he can't achieve great things, use great methods to do small things.
There is a Buddhist story about a conversation between a destitute man and the Buddha.
The poor man asked the Buddha, "I am devoted to the Buddha, but why am I so poor, don't you feel my heart?"
The Buddha said, "I can feel it, but I can't give you anything, but there are people who can give you what you need, and you haven't learned to give them."
The poor man said, "I have nothing but this heart to the Buddha, how can you ask me to give it?"
The Buddha said, "Even if you have nothing, you can still give seven things to others."
The poor man asked curiously, "What are the seven things that I never knew?"
The Buddha said that these seven things are: smiling, saying words of praise and comfort, opening one's heart to others, showing kindness and righteousness to others, helping others with actions, humility and tolerance of others.
As long as you give these seven things to others, you will definitely get what you want, then you will not have nothing left, as long as you give these seven things to others, you will be the richest person in the world.
Lu Yiqian has been persevering for decades, and the things he has done are some things that seem trivial in the eyes of the world, but these things have always passed on a positive attitude to Lu Yao.
Lu Yao, who is terminally ill, is neither humble nor arrogant, and has always bravely fought against the disease.
Gifted and immortal in his heart, Lu Yao is still as low-key as a pool of autumn water, and he can't afford to make any waves.
If it weren't for a sincere heart that was jealous and hateful, compassionate and compassionate, I believe no one would have known that Lu Yao was different.
Although Aunt Wang had nothing to do with Lu Yao except for the neighborly relationship in August, Lu Yao was still willing to take a great risk to help him, and Lan Feiyan's family had nothing to do with him, but for the sake of Han Dong, he still took action.
Parents are the best teachers of their children, and there is really nothing wrong with this statement.
Lu Yao's valuable qualities were all learned from his godfather Lu Yiqian.
After the father and son talked about some more trivial matters, a hearty dinner was almost over.
Lu Yao didn't have anything to do today, so he took over the job of washing pots and dishes.
For Lu Yao, these things have long been familiar with it, so Lu Yiqian is not reluctant, he lets Lu Yao go in and out alone, and goes to rest after drinking a cup of tea.
After ten minutes, everything was cleaned up, and Lu Yao would also practice in his room for the evening.
