Fu Xiangyi cooked with Ye Xuexin in the kitchen, and by the way, she whispered a lesson to her daughter who was not so diligent in housework, in fact, Ye Xuexin was indeed a little lazy to do housework such as cleaning up the room, because she felt that a slightly messy room would have a more warm taste, while Fu Xiangyi was a mother with a slight obsessive-compulsive disorder, and she couldn't see a messy room the most, although Lin Hai and Ye Xuexin's home was not a mess.

And Ye Zhengting is playing Go with Lin Hai in the living room, Ye Zhengting is good at this, and may be able to go to the professional rank, while Lin Hai is a pure amateur, and he can't play if he has nothing to do, but he used to study for a while when he was in school, and now he is purely relying on his sharper thinking ability to support it, so as not to lose too ugly.

Ye Zhengting looked relaxed, and he could still look around after falling, of course he also saw that the room was a little messy, especially the books were everywhere, and on the armrest of the sofa where he was sitting, there was a thick book with a bookmark.

"Vernacular Zhou Yixin Reading", Ye Zhengting's eyebrows raised slightly, and he glanced at Lin Hai strangely and said:

"Are you reading this book or are you reading it?"

Lin Hai raised his eyes and swept it:

"I'm watching."

Ye Zhengting nodded:

"This book is okay, but there are a lot of private goods, if you want to study Zhou Yi, it's better to read the Ming and Qing versions, although it is a little laborious to read, but it can clear the development of Chinese philosophy."

Lin Hai pinched the sunspot in his hand and gave up thinking about the chessboard, raised his eyes to look at his father-in-law and asked with interest:

"Dad, do you have research on Zhou Yi?"

"Hehe, it's rare to learn someone who doesn't understand Zhou Yi."

Lin Hai leaned forward, he didn't care about the loopholes in his father-in-law's words, in fact, there shouldn't be many science scholars Du Zhouyi, right?

"Dad, what kind of existence do you think Zhou Yi is?"

Ye Zhengting couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, Lin Hai's question was greatly unexpected by him, generally speaking, the question about books is not 'What do you think of this book?' Or, 'What do you think this book is about?' Lin Hai asked Zhou Yi what kind of existence he was, and the focus was obviously not on the book itself.

Ye Zhengting is very proud of the extremely high realm of his son-in-law, after all, only such a man is worthy of his daughter! Xue Xin's vision is still very accurate.

"Good question, Zhou Yi, if a colleague from our school asks me, I will answer that Zhou Yi is the source of Chinese philosophy."

Lin Hai smiled slightly, and didn't rush to ask Ye Zhengting how he would answer if he asked himself, but followed Ye Zhengting's words and asked:

"The source of Chinese philosophy? This Zhou Yi belongs to the Confucian school, and it seems that it cannot represent the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism, not to mention that the influence of Chinese philosophy is also extremely far-reaching, among which the philosophical ideas of Legalism have continued to this day. ”

"Hehe, Zhou Yi, Zhou Yi, the key is still in Yi! Trying to reinterpret the Book of Changes, Zhou Yi is just one of them, but Zhou Yi's practice and effect have played an exemplary and enlightening role, to be precise, the Book of Changes is the source of Chinese philosophy, and Zhou Yi is the first key to open this source. ”

Lin Hai understood what the old man wanted to say, nodded and said:

"I Ching? In this book, I think that the I Ching is a divination, and I remember that there is another book "A Different Interpretation of the I Ching", which seems to think that the I Ching is a success study or sociology work, and it seems to be self-justifying. If one of these two statements is true, can it afford to be the source of philosophy? ”

Ye Zhengting laughed, cast the white son in his hand, and raised his eyebrows:

Perhaps, the author of the I Ching did not expect that the I Ching would affect the entire Chinese civilization, and it can even be said that it has achieved a brilliant Chinese civilization. Even if the I Ching itself is just a divination, or just a successological handout written by someone who wants to seek wealth and prosperity to the superiors, then what? ”

Lin Hai frowned, a little didn't understand what Ye Zhengting wanted to express, Ye Zhengting paused slightly, let Lin Hai think for a moment, and then he continued with a high spirit:

"The key is to reinterpret it for future generations! Ah Hai, even if the I Ching itself is just a worthless and ridiculous prescript, but countless sages and elites have repeatedly injected their ideological sparks into it as nourishment, what will this originally crude and even ridiculous thing become? ”

Lin Hai suddenly realized:

"Are you saying that the I Ching is like a platform, through which countless elites and sages propagate and continue their ideas, and the latecomers fully absorb the nourishment of the forerunners, constantly temper and improve these ideas, and then form the skeleton that supports our entire civilization."

Ye Zhengting nodded with relief on his face:

"Yes, from this, I can also answer your question, Zhou Yi, or I Ching, can be said to be the common belief of our Chinese civilization circle."

Lin Hai lowered his head and pondered thoughtfully, Ye Zhengting's words seemed to open an invisible door in his mind, Lin Hai seemed to have figured out something, but he couldn't grasp the point after thinking about it carefully, and he was a little distracted for a while.

Ye Zhengting picked up the teacup in front of him, took a sip of hot tea, and then put the teacup down lightly, looked at Lin Hai who was muttering to himself, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Faith... Platform... Ideological inheritance... Tempered..."

Lin Hai gradually strung together these keywords, in Lin Hai's mind, faith is often associated with gods, but Ye Zhengting attached the belief of a civilization to a book, and Ye Zhengting's rhetorical logic is perfect, if you can't find the logical error in these words, then it means that the power of faith is not only linked to the gods.

If the faith Ye Zhengting said really exists and has existed for thousands of years, then have these forces of faith converged somewhere? Will it have an impact on the real world? How to find and contact this object of faith, which is more ethereal than the gods? ...

One by one, the sparks of inspiration, one by one of the mysteries, like bubbles rising from the bottom of the water, strings endlessly, making Lin Hai both excited and confused.

For a while, my heart was itchy, but I couldn't scratch it, so anxious that Lin Hai scratched his ears and cheeks and was irritable.

"Husband, clean up the table and get ready to eat!"

Ye Xuexin's crisp voice pulled Lin Hai out of the storm of thoughts, making the original bubbling source of inspiration disappear in an instant, Lin Hai glared at Ye Xuexin with some annoyance, Ye Xuexin was inexplicably stunned, and then glared back with a coquettish look, Lin Hai sighed, shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Ye Zhengting saw everything in his eyes, and persuaded with a smile:

"The opportunity has not come, it is yours who can't escape after all, perhaps, your puzzle is still missing something, it is better to read more books and try."

Lin Hai sighed and nodded:

"Perhaps, I always feel that you say that faith is a very important idea, and I think it is worth studying in depth."

"Hehe, don't worry, eat first, academic things are like this, sometimes the more anxious you are, the more you don't know the point, and sometimes you can get it inadvertently."

Lin Hai got up to clean up the dining table, Ye Zhengting also put down the teacup and got up, ready to occupy a seat at the dining table first, Lin Hai hesitated for a moment, but still said in a low voice:

"Dad, are you really going to let Xue Xin experiment on you? Actually, we can find someone else's. ”

"Xue Xin told me that this matter is very important, who can you trust?"

Lin Hai was stunned and shook his head with a wry smile.

Ye Zhengting smiled and said:

"Besides, Xuexin told me that the danger is not great, so what am I worried about, will my daughter harm me?"

Lin Hai hurriedly shook his head:

"Of course not, I'm just scared in case."

Ye Zhengting looked at Lin Hai seriously:

"Ah Hai, that's my daughter, I believe her."

Lin Hai closed his mouth, nodded and said no more, he couldn't answer.

Ye Zhengting's face immediately softened slightly, and he smiled slightly:

"Besides, I don't want to be just an ordinary person, I also want to see such a magical world."

Lin Hai smiled, this reason is really powerful, there is no way to refute it at all, if you change places, Lin Hai will not hesitate to make the same choice as Ye Zhengting.

Ye Zhengting raised his eyebrows proudly, glanced sideways at the kitchen, and then beckoned Lin Hai to approach, and said in a low voice:

"Is Snow Heart the same as you now?"

Lin Hai also glanced at the kitchen and shook his head slightly:

"It's not the same, but she's better than me in some ways."

Ye Zhengting grinned proudly:

"yes, hehe, actually, I always think Snow Heart is different, right?"

There was a trap hidden in Ye Zhengting's question, and Lin Hai smiled and replied:

"She's certainly different, she's been since she was a child."

Ye Zhengting understood, and sighed abruptly, as if he had let go of something in his heart, and the smile on his face was obviously much easier:

"Sure enough, that's good, that's good, her mother and I have always felt indebted to Xuexin and made her suffer so much."

Lin Hai Zhengse said:

"Xue Xin feels that you have given her more, and she has always felt that she is very happy."

Ye Zhengting smiled, maybe Ye Xuexin would think so now, but it wasn't necessarily at that time, Ye Xuexin was still a child at that time, she could only simply feel the pain and injustice brought to her by fate, and all this pain and unwillingness was like a mountain pressing on Ye Zhengting and Fu Xiangyi's shoulders at the same time.

Of course, these have all passed, and the taste is naturally not humane, Ye Zhengting just laughed.

"You have to be good, you have to support each other."

Lin Hai was stunned for a moment, then glanced deeply at his father-in-law, nodded vigorously and said:

"We will, Dad, don't worry."

Ye Zhengting quickly waved his hand and smiled self-deprecatingly:

"Am I a so-called FLAG?"

Lin Hai was speechless for the cold joke of the old man, and the corners of his mouth twitched, maybe it didn't count just now, but now you add such a sentence, you really want to set up a FLAG!

Maybe Ye Zhengting is still a little uneasy in the bottom of his heart, so what he said just now inevitably has some meaning of explaining the future, but Lin Hai will not say it, he still has confidence in Ye Xuexin, but when it comes to Ye Xuexin's closest relatives, Lin Hai will inevitably have some gains and losses, not to mention Ye Zhengting.

"Dad, don't play these stalks, you can't play them."

Ye Zhengting laughed, causing the two women in the kitchen to probe out at the same time.
