Chapter 252 is an inch

"Good Samaritan, can you give me a piece of wood as a coffin?" Today, an old man came to the village, he was in rags, on crutches, and on straw sandals, and asked Yun Yao for a piece of wood to make his coffin.

The old man's hair is thinning, his teeth are falling out, and his speech is leaky, as if he is about to die.

But the old man had no money, so he asked for timber in a begging way.

Yun Yao saw that the old man was pitiful, but he also agreed to send a piece of wood, and delivered it to the door: "Uncle, if you need it, you can choose a piece of wood." Yun Yao took the old man to the river, pointed to a piece of wood floating near the water, and said, "How about this one?" ”

"This one doesn't work, it's easy to rot."

Yun Yao was originally kind, otherwise this kind of old man who came to the door to ask for wood didn't have to pay attention to it, after all, the old man came to ask for free wood, and she was willing to send it with a conscience. The old man can go to the grass house, which shows that his identity is a Chinese person, and the Chinese people attach great importance to the funeral, because most people still do not know that after death is to enter the reincarnation, they all think that after death is a new beginning, and they can go to another world to enjoy life, so the funeral is as important as the sacrifice. Out of kindness, Yun Yao was willing to give a piece of wood, which could make several coffins. But I didn't expect the old man to be dissatisfied.

The old man's skin was as withered as tree bark, but his cloudy eyes were very firm, that is, he was not satisfied.

"Uncle, the wood here is the same, if this one is easy to rot, then the other wood is also easy to rot." Yun Yao thought to herself that if the old man was afraid of rotting wood, then she would have nothing to give.

"Isn't it? I just saw in the cottage that the beams of the roof are good wood. The old man said as a matter of course.

"......" Yun Yao was a little in a trance, early this morning, he didn't eat, so he entertained this old man who came to the door early in the morning to ask for wood, and he politely asked him to choose wood, but he wanted to demolish his own cottage?

What's going on here? Yun Yao thought to herself, could it be that this old man was an immortal who went down to earth to test himself? If so, she just wants to say to the gods don't always test her alone, the world is so big, there are so many young people, test others more.

If this old man is just an ordinary picky, ordinary old man who is not welcomed, then Yun Yao just wants to say that the old man should not consume the kindness of others, and he will retribution.

"Uncle, I'm a little confused, are you asking me to give you a piece of wood to make a coffin?"

"That's right." The old man nodded: "I heard that there is wood here, so I walked for several days before I arrived at the grass house, just to choose a piece of wood that would satisfy me." I don't have anything to exchange with you, so you're going to give me one. ”

"Now you don't think these pieces of wood are good, so you want me to tear down the grass hut where you live and take off the beams and give them to you?" Yun Yao was sure again.

Originally, it was too much to ask for timber at the door, and it was already an inch to ask Yun Yao to dismantle the house and take the beam.

"That's right." The old man nodded again, and said confidently: "I have come all the way, you must not let me go home empty-handed." ”

"If you want to demolish my cottage, I think I can refuse." Yun Yao didn't know what to say.

The old man looked at Yun Yao, but he had some words: "I'm going to die, and the coffin is my only destination." And you are still alive, and with what I have seen of your abundance, in a few years you will surely expand the grass house, and then the beam will be replaced, and this beam will be dispensable to you, why will you not be happy to give it to me? Are you unwilling to waste your strength, or are you stingy with your financial resources, or are you so limited by your kindness that you are unwilling to help the old man fulfill the last wish of his life? ”

Yun Yao was stunned, only to feel that this old man was too annoying, and he was about to be great? Can you cause trouble for people?

The old man's remarks, I really don't know where to complain. Of course, he can't be wrong, because if he wants, it is indeed not difficult to change a beam, but the old man is obviously here to seek free wood, but he picks and chooses, and the head is the way, which is really disgusting: "Even if what you say is right, even if it is indeed possible to remove the roof and replace the beams, then why should I help you?" I can ask about my kindness, but will you ask yourself about my kindness? Ask yourself, is this offer really worthy of me responding to the request? Yun Yao was not used to the old man, and said directly: "It's naturally no problem for you to ask for a beam, but if you can't convince me by simply asking, you must at least say a reason that I can't refuse, don't say that I have a bad conscience, I think conscience is not bad and good." ”

Isn't the old man able to speak well, then Yun Yao will give him a chance to see if he can convince himself.

The old man's eyes seemed to be a little questioning, and his expression was a little frozen, as if it was the first time he had met a hard-hearted woman like Yun Yao, who could so cruelly refuse an old man who was about to die, and he still needed a reason? Isn't that enough for me to die?

It is definitely not enough, Yun Yao thought to herself that this old man had walked for a few days to pick his own village, although he was old, he was in good health, and he would definitely be able to try if his coffin was comfortable.

Facing the questions on the old man's face, Yun Yao was expressionless, just waiting for the old man to speak.

But the old man obviously couldn't find a reason why Yun Yao couldn't refuse and had to demolish the house, so Yun Yao waited for a long time and didn't get a response.

"It seems that you have nothing to say, so so be it, you tell me which mining you live in, and when I make the coffin, I will send it directly to your house." "I'm not just going to send you wood, I'm going to give you a set of labor." Yun Yao showed his generosity, and did not rely on the old man's coffin because of his eccentricity.

The old man was a little depressed and a little disappointed, as if the whole world didn't understand him, and couldn't help but say: "I don't want to offend, I don't want to think stupidly, God doesn't know me, only I see people leaving." There was a complaint in his tone, saying that he was a clear person, not offending people, not thinking dementia, but no one understood me, God didn't understand me, and the people around me had left me, why were I so miserable?

"......" Yun Yao suddenly missed Confucius at this time, because he said, 'Do unto others as you would have them do unto you', and he said to introspect. Didn't the old man think about reflecting on his own behavior? He is so carried away and has to make inches, who can stand it, don't they all have to leave him? He also said that he 'doesn't want to speak, he doesn't want to think stupidly', which is not realizing his mistake at all.

It's not yourself that's wrong, it's the world. I felt this way.

"If I want the beams of your house, I don't know how you feel."

"You're richer than me, why do you want the beams of my house?" The old man thought it was strange and said that he couldn't understand Yun Yao's train of thought.

"Who would want to have an extra piece of wood in their house?" After a few hundred years, the old man will know what it means for a big country to rob a small country, and a rich country to rob a poor country, and there will be many rich people who will rob those who are poorer than himself.

The old man looked at Yun Yao in surprise, only to feel that Yun Yao's words were more terrible than an inch, the idea of the weak and the strong and the bullying of the red fruit was expressed unabashedly, and he was stunned, and he didn't know what expression to use and what language to use to evaluate Yun Yao.

Just like Yun Yao, she didn't know how to evaluate the old man at first.

"Peng Keng has been taught." The old man couldn't understand Yun Yao, but today he was really taught a lesson by Yun Yao. onclick="hui"
