Lin Zhiruo touched her head a little surprised: "I just said it casually, uncle, don't think I'm talking big." ”

The uncle suddenly laughed: "How come? Little brother, this is a sentence to wake up the person in the dream, I heard a story before, saying that at the beginning of the world, Nuwa pinched people and other animals, and at the beginning, people and other animals had the same lifespan of twenty years.

However, the main task of people coming to this world is to live freely in this world every day, without worrying about food or clothing.

Then the man ran to the oxen and said, "Your task in this world is to work diligently, and you must eat less and work more, and your life will be twenty years." As soon as Lao Niu heard that he wanted to eat less and do more, and he had been working for twenty years, he was suddenly unhappy in his heart.

It protested: I work so hard, I can only eat grass? Then I'll just have five years to live, and I'll give you the rest.

After thinking about it, he ran to find the horse and said, "You are tired of running around every day, so you might as well live a few years less, and give me the time you have saved."

Later, the man ran to the monkey and said, "You use your good imitation and antics, to coax others to play, to make others happy, to perform acrobatics, and to do somersaults, so hard, it is enough for you to live for five years, give me the remaining fifteen years, and the monkey thought that it made sense and agreed."

At last the man ran and persuaded the pig to give him the remaining fifteen years. In this way, in the end, the person can live to be eighty years old.

There are two sides to everything, people get 60 years of life to consider, the ox represents diligent work, the horse represents family and career success, the monkey represents wisdom and wisdom, and the pig represents happiness and enjoyment of life.

Before the age of twenty, people live a human life, carefree and very happy, and between the ages of twenty and thirty-five they have to work as hard as oxen, endure all the hardships of the world, and suffer and suffer in order to support their families.

Thirty-five to fifty-year-olds have happy families, successful careers, and are as energetic and galloping as a thousand horses.

Between the ages of fifty and sixty-five, he has accumulated enough experience and wisdom to become as shrewd as a monkey.

At the age of 65 to 80, you no longer have to run around for work and life, and you can start to calm down like a pig and enjoy a beautiful and comfortable life.

This story is very similar to the truth you said, little brother. What is the meaning of a life in which a person can only grow fields and weave cloth and then give birth to dolls, and the offspring are exactly the same, and can see the head at a glance?

Therefore, people should take advantage of their youth to do a little more and go outside to see the chances, if they are lucky and successful, it is naturally a good thing. If you are unlucky and don't succeed, you will come to this world with nothing, and what is the loss of returning to nothing? ”

Lin Zhiruo listened to the uncle's words with a serious face, and nodded approvingly: "Uncle's story is interesting, and the kid has been taught." ”

Saying that, he bowed to the uncle, and then said to the old man: "Dad, I have decided, I will not go back when I come out this time, I will stay in the city and make a breakthrough!" ”

When the old man heard this, he was immediately anxious: "Don't say that the wind is the rain, do business and do business!" Is it so easy to do business? How many people are thinking about making money by doing business, and there are a few who really make money, listen to my father's advice, let's hurry up and sell the mountain goods and go home, don't delay people to work here! ”

As he spoke, he took Lin Zhiruo's hand and wanted to leave.

Lin Zhiruo dodged left and right beside the uncle, but refused to follow the old man: "I didn't delay the uncle's work, the water that was spilled out when he said it, since I have already said that I won't go back, I will definitely not go back, Dad, you can sell the mountain goods yourself and go back, I want to stay in the city!" Uncle, you are still short of people, I work with my father in the fields every day, I have a lot of strength, I can do any job! ”

The uncle smiled and shook his head: "Okay, we are short of a porter, if you don't dislike it, just do it now, and when the uncle's business grows, let you be the shopkeeper!" ”

"Uncle, this is what you said, a word is a certainty!"

The old man didn't catch up with Lin Zhiruo for a long time, and suddenly he was panting and couldn't move.

Seeing this, Lin Zhiruo also pretended not to be a taste and stepped forward to help the old man, and said in a low voice:

"Dad, you also heard, the uncle has left me, I am already working here with the uncle, don't worry, come to the city to sell mountain goods on the fifteenth day of every month, I will hand over my salary to you, go home and eat with my mother!"

The old man knew that his children had always thought differently from others, and now he was completely unconvinced that he was determined to stay in the city, so he sighed.

"Since people want you, you must work hard here, you must not fish for three days and net for two days, you are still young and don't know the difficulties of living in the city, your father and I, when I was young, I was also as high as you, thinking that I could go outside to make a career and return to my hometown." Speaking of this, the old man's eyes showed a look of reminiscence.

"And then?" Lin Zhiruo said curiously.

"Later, I came to this Anyang City to look for several days before I found a tavern to find a man, the boss saw that I was young and strong and left me, I was also very happy, thinking that my good days were coming. I never expected that when I was doing it for a month, I actually encountered a few people in the rivers and lakes fighting, and the tavern was demolished by them in three or two clicks, and the boss felt sorry for his business and wanted to stop it, and he was accidentally involved in the fight and was killed......"

Speaking of this, a deep sadness appeared in the old man's eyes: "Actually, the boss is a good person, but his luck is too bad." Later, I tried a few more, and although they all did well, they didn't make a fortune in the end, so I went back to the village to marry your mother, and lived a life like everyone else......"

Hearing this, Lin Zhiruo and the boss were a little silent.

After a long time, the uncle smiled and said: "Brother, don't worry, although my old man is not rich and noble, I believe that he is not such a bad luck person, since I have promised to accept the little brother, I will try my best to ensure his safety, and I will also protect myself, and there will never be a situation like the tavern owner again." ”

Although the uncle's words were said jokingly, the old man did not smile, and looked at Lin Zhiruo with a pair of eyes: "Since you have already decided, then I will not say more about the old man, you must listen to the shopkeeper carefully, and you must not be cheating and cheating, otherwise I will definitely ask your mother to clean you up!" ”
