Chapter 44 Shun cultivates the acres

Although Shun grew up in hardship, he was physically strong, full of food, and had strength. He opened up a large area www.biquge.info of wasteland and planted grains and beans.

People are not lazy, no hard work, no harvest. Shun works from spring to autumn. The harvest season has arrived, and the crops planted by Shun have been harvested. Took out ten times the amount to pay off the seeds and rations borrowed from other people's families in the spring. There's so much more left. In addition to saving enough seeds and rations for next year, Shun borrowed a car from other people's families and brought the rest of the grain home.

The stepmother smiled when she saw Shun pulling back a lot of grain. However, seeing that Shun not only did not starve to death, but also harvested a lot of food, and the people also grew much taller and stronger, he was even more jealous.

When Shun returned home, he went to see his brother. But he couldn't find his brother anywhere. When I asked my father, I learned that my brother had died shortly after he was kicked out of the house.

When Shun heard the bad news, he cried loudly, knowing in his heart that his brother was abused to death by his stepmother, but he didn't dare to say it. Just silently prayed, hoping that my brother would go all the way.

The stepmother greedily moved all the food into the door, but she didn't even let Shun eat a mouthful of food, so she drove Shun out again.

Shun didn't expect his stepmother to keep him at home. After saluting his father and stepmother, he returned to Alexandria.

His brother is dead, and Shun no longer has his brother's concern in his heart, but is relieved a lot. As he walked past a house at the foot of the mountain, he suddenly heard the sound of reading from inside.

Shun has long been yearning for reading, but he was born in such a family, and reading is like a daydream. Today, at the foot of this mountain, there is a chance to hear the sound of reading, how can you easily miss it?

So Shun quietly squatted out of the window and stole the sound. The gentleman spoke a paragraph, and the students read a paragraph, and listened to Shun like a seedling in a long-drought drought at the beginning of a sweet rain, greedily absorbing it into his heart. Hearing that the students were dismissed, Shun Cai hurriedly walked away.

For three days in a row, Shun came to squat outside the window every day to eavesdrop and read. The sound of the gentleman's endless explanation and the sound of the student's reading made Shun forget everything. It's like a skylight opened in his chest, and the sun of knowledge shines into the wilderness, Shun is hungry and thirsty, and forgets to eat, for fear that he will miss any of his husband's words when he gets distracted.

On the fourth day, Shun came to the window early. As soon as he was squatting under the eaves, he heard the door open and the gentleman came out.

Shun was startled, and hurriedly stood up, holding his hands solemnly, as if he had been caught stealing something, ready to be reprimanded by Mr.

Who knows, not only did the gentleman not reprimand. Instead, he looked Shun up and down with a smile on his face and asked, "Young man, what's your name?"

Shun replied, "My name is Shun." ”

The gentleman asked again, "Why are you eavesdropping on his lectures?"

Shun replied: "I have wanted to study since I was a child, but because my family is poor and cannot afford to read, I have never read a book. Now that I have been kicked out of the house by my stepmother, I am cultivating land at the foot of this mountain. Passing by here after harvesting crops in autumn, I heard the sound of reading, and I couldn't help but listen, it's all my fault, please punish me. ”

The gentleman asked again, "How many days have you been parked outside this window?"

Shun replied, "Don't dare to hide it from Mr., I've been listening here for three days. ”

Mr. patted Shun's shoulder and said, "It's not easy at a young age, it's hard for you." From today onwards, you can come in and study, and I will take you as a student. ”

Shun hurriedly said: "But I don't have the money to pay the tuition, so I can only wait for the food to pay for the tuition." The gentleman said, "I don't charge you tuition, so you can come and study with confidence." ”

Shun was flattered, couldn't help but burst into tears, and thought: "I didn't expect that I, an outcast who was kicked out of the house by my stepmother, would have such a blessing that I could go to school without spending a penny." So, with a plop, he fell to his knees and kowtowed to the teacher three times respectfully.

The teacher put Shun up with both hands. The two teachers and students walked into the school together.

From this day on, Shun officially entered the school and studied with his husband.

This gentleman's name is Wu Chengzi. He is morally profound, knowledgeable, and an immortal. Mr. Wu Chengzi knew that Shun would inherit the position of Emperor Yao in the future and become the king of Huaxia.

However, Shun was born in a poor family at the bottom of society, and his father and stepmother were of very low moral character. Shun was abused by his stepmother and had not studied until he was fifteen years old. How can a person who has not read, has no knowledge, and has no knowledge be the monarch of China? How can he govern a great country well?

So Mr. Wu Chengzi calculated that this year, Shun would be expelled from the house and go to Lishan to farm, so he found a house at the foot of Lishan, recruited a few students first, and waited for Shun to come to study in his spare time.

The reason why Teacher Wu Chengzi waited for Shun to eavesdrop for three days before summoning him in was also to test Shun's sincerity in studying. As for the students who were called before, they were all young talents selected by Teacher Wu Chengzi, and after completing their studies, they will all be the pillars of the country in the future.

Shun entered the school, and eagerly followed Teacher Wu Chengzi to read and study, and only listened to Teacher Wu Chengzi's words. Just like a sponge absorbs water, it does not miss every word of Teacher Wu Chengzi.

Shun's nature is extremely intelligent, and his understanding is very strong, drawing inferences from one case and reciting it from his eyes. After a winter, my studies have grown a lot and my progress is amazing.

Reading has increased Shun's knowledge, understood the truth, and broadened his mind, and Shun is like being reborn and changing his bones. The whole person, from the inside out, has changed dramatically.

Shun read the book, with knowledge, in the mountains to cultivate the field and sow without violating the farming, the crops planted densely and properly, than the previous planting, the growth is much better, the yield is higher than before.

After Shun read the book, his heart was open-minded. Since then, he has not only thought about his parents, but also is very willing to help the people around him. Many people saw that Shun had a bumper harvest from farming in Lishan, so they all went to Shun's fields to open up wasteland and build houses next to Shun's house. Shundu was eager to help. Some families were starving, so Shun took the initiative to give them food.

There are more and more people cultivating in Lishan, and your land is next to my family's land, and my house is next to your house, so there are disputes between people. When Shun encountered such a thing, he took the initiative to step forward, understand it with reason, move it with emotion, resolve disputes, and settle disputes.

Shun also made a five-stringed instrument in his spare time. After dropping out of farming, he played the piano to people, and used the sound of the piano to purify people's hearts, influence people's emotions, and cultivate people's sentiments.

People say that the five-stringed piano played by Shun is a natural sound. When people hear this, they will be inspired by the gods to purify their hearts.

Three years later, at the foot of Lishan, the place where Shun lived became a village. Five years later, it became a geup. The wasteland of Lishan has also been reclaimed. Shun also became a leader in the hearts of the people.

Shun followed Wu Chengzi to read books for seven years, and during this period, he also formed friendships with his classmates Qin Buxu, Dong Buzhi, Qian Keng, Gao Tao, Bo Yang and Luo Tao. These people have all become useful talents of the country in the future.

One day, Teacher Wu Chengzi called Shun to him and said, "Shun, as the saying goes, the master leads the door, and the cultivation is in the individual. Now that you have been reading with me for seven years, I have taught you everything I should have taught you, and I have learned everything you should have learned. The way forward is up to you. From now on, you will leave Lishan and travel to all parts of the world. East, south, west, and north all have to go. Understand the customs and new things in various places, exercise yourself, increase your knowledge, and increase your talents.

Shun listened to the words of his teacher Wu Chengzi and gave the land of Lishan to the landless villagers. All the way to the north.

Shun crossed the towering Taihang Mountain and came to the deer in Youzhou. Chasing the deer is the place where the Yellow Emperor defeated Chiyou in the end when he fought Chiyou. Shun hung the ancient battlefield of the year. Listen to the local people talk about the legends of the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou.

Then cross the nine rivers, climb the Yan Mountain, and Linjie Stone. I saw with my own eyes the sea of the East that can hold hundreds of rivers. But seeing the blue waves, the sky and the sea are connected, and there is no end to it. The sun and moon seem to rise from the East China Sea, and the sun, moon and stars seem to float on the sea. This was the first time Shun had seen the sea, and the sea shocked Shun. The sea also made Shun in awe.

From Jieshi Mountain all the way to the southeast, came to Mount Tai. Shun ascended Mount Tai in Dongyue. Standing at the top of Mount Tai, we have appreciated the majestic momentum of Mount Tai. "Climb Mount Tai and the small world" has broadened Shun's mind.

After some hanging, Shun got off Mount Tai and came to Qufu. Qufu is the birthplace of the Yellow Emperor. Shun came here, and it was another hanging.

One day Shun came to Shouqiu. The pottery industry in Shouqiu is very developed, and it is a well-known pottery township. At this time, it is the autumn and winter season, which is the time of agricultural slack. Shun learned pottery from the locals.

Because Shun has read books, is knowledgeable, has a wide range of knowledge, and has traveled to many places. Therefore, learning pottery, you can understand it at a glance, and you will learn it as soon as you learn it. The pottery made by Shun is generous in shape, fine in workmanship, strong and durable. It is also carved with beautiful patterns, and the words "Potter's Shun" are engraved on the bottom of the pottery.

The pottery made by Shun was sold far away by the traders. They were all sold at a good price. Shun's name also spread far and wide along with the pottery.

The potters are all vying to learn from Shun. Shun unreservedly passed on his skills to everyone. By learning from each other and learning from each other, Shouqiu's pottery has made greater progress. The potters are making more money. Shun's name is almost a household name in Shouqiu. And with the trafficking of pottery, it spread far and wide.

Spring came again, and Shun found another barren mountain here, so he cultivated the fields at the foot of the mountain and planted crops. Shun named this barren mountain, also called Lishan. (Shun once reclaimed seven barren mountains, and he named these cultivated places Lishan)

In addition to farming, Shun saw that the local people did not know how to build houses, and they all lived in the soil holes dug under the roots of the mountain, so Shun built a model house on the cultivated field, and after building it, invited the local people to visit, and taught everyone how to build a house. As a result, the locals also went to Shun's Lishan to open up farmland, build houses, and houses.

Three years later, it became a town again, and the people named this town Duyi, and honored Shun as the king. The people of the capital listened to him.

While ploughing the fields, Shun also educated the people. Teach them to honor their parents, to love their brothers, to help their neighbors, and to live in harmony with each other.

A few years later, the atmosphere here changed dramatically, and it became the land of benevolence and righteousness, and the land of etiquette.

So Shun left here again and traveled to the west and south.

Shun came to the foot of Huiji Mountain by the sea, and saw that fishermen fishing was hard and dangerous, and they could not catch big fish without going out to the open sea, and they would die if they went out to the open sea. So he taught the local people how to raise fish in ponds on land. From then on, the people could eat delicious big fish without having to risk their lives to go out to sea to fish.

Wherever Shun goes, he spreads his technology to wherever he goes, brings his concept of being a human being, and at the same time influences and helps the people there.

Shun's fame grew, and it reached Di Yao's ears through various channels.

When Di Yao went out on patrol, he also saw the Lishan cultivated by Shun and went to Shouqiu, where pottery was made. I have also been to the foot of Huiji Mountain on the coast of the East China Sea. Everyone says that Shun is a benevolent person, a sage, and a capable person.

Di Yao is getting older and older, and he wants to pass on the prosperity he created. But his son Zhu Dan has no ambitions, no learning skills, greedy for pleasure, and is unworthy of entrusting him with great responsibilities.

So Di Yao wanted to choose a virtuous man who was moral, learned, talented, and capable of governing the country to take over his class.

Many ministers recommended Shun to Di Yao. Those who recommend Shun say that Shun is benevolent, heavy, virtuous, upright, filial piety, resolute, decisive, and an all-rounder in governing the country.

So Yao decided to summon Shun to the imperial capital and personally inspect it in person.

The envoy summoned Shun to the court. Di Yao looked down and saw that Shun was six feet one inch tall, he was a small man, but he had a dragon face and a long face, a round head, a square court, a big mouth, and heavy eyes. Like a heavy bird, heroic, shrewd and capable.

Di Yao once saw a sage in a dream, and this was what it looked like. Now when I see Shun looking like this, I immediately have a good impression. So he discussed with Shun the strategy of governing the country and securing the country. After talking, Di Yao found that Shun not only understood the strategy of governing the country, but also understood the way of employing people, and his ability was extraordinary. Visionary. What's more valuable is that Shun was born in a common people's family and started in the acres. Simple by nature, honest and kind, he is deeply loved by Di Yao.

For the sake of prudence, Di Yao decided to marry his two beloved daughters, Empress E and Nuying, to Shun as his wife, so that he could examine them carefully in the future.

This year, Shun was thirty years old. In order to welcome Empress E and Nuying, Shun returned to the shore of Rui, where he farmed, and built several new houses, and also prepared a place for his parents to live.

After Shun got married, regardless of the beating and abuse of his stepmother and father, he took his parents to live together so that he could take care of them sooner or later.
