When a man is successful, he has the obligation to support his relatives, to help his fellow villagers, and to give back to his hometown. Otherwise, he will refuse to recognize his relatives, he will be supercilious, and he will be unkind and unjust.
Because people always have to fall and return to their roots. No matter how much light is split outside, they will eventually turn into a handful of loess in their hometown, buried in the place where the family thrives, and stay with their local relatives day and night.
Similarly, if this man succeeds, his relatives and fellow villagers will surely follow suit. Think about history, whenever the country is in crisis and the army is defeated, the rural militiamen who defend the country are not all loyal and brave people.
Minister, soldiers recruited in your hometown?
These militia soldiers are bound by kinship and nostalgia. They fight tigers as brothers, father and son, and they can't be defeated. Every time the Hu people went south, the most difficult ones to fight were also the ones with the strongest will to fight and the least fear of death. These were the people.
.
A developed and promising man is not an independent noun, but a complex adjective. He is the most reliable force in his hometown in that field.
Throughout the afternoon, Hou Yong's ears were filled with Hou's mother's nagging, which gave him a splitting headache.
It wasn't until the visit of his good friend, Inspector Yang Jing, in the same year that Hou Yong got rid of his mother's nagging.
In the living room of the front yard of the Hou Mansion, Hou Yong and Yang Jing attended the ceremony together.
"Scenery!" (characterized by Hou Yong)
"Zhong Ning!" (characterized by Yang Jing)
The two of them looked at each other and smiled, then took their seats respectively.
"Well, Hou Jing, you didn't even know me when you entered the capital, and you asked me to come and visit you!" Yang Jing said with a smile, "Why, you can't bear to pay for a meal?"
"What are you talking about Zhong Ning!" Hou Yong said with a smile, "You know my temperament. People in the capital are very miscellaneous. When I first came to take up my post, I started calling out friends before even going to the Yamen. Outsiders must gossip!"
"You, you, you! If you talk to others, they won't talk to you if you don't call your friends!" Yang Jing said with a smile, "I heard that you went to the palace to see His Majesty today?"
"It spread so quickly?" Hou Yong said with a smile.
"More than spreading the word!" Yang Jing said with a teasing smile, "The emperor's kindness to you makes people jealous!" He said, sighing, "I have been an official in Beijing since I became an official, and I have never seen the emperor treat you with kindness.
Who has ever been so kind to me?"
"Hou deserves it!" Hou Yong said, cupping his hands to the sky.
"If you feel guilty, we and other Beijing officials are really ashamed of themselves!" Yang Jing sighed, "You and I were in the same year of Hongwu's 10th year, and there are very few people left in our field until now!"
Hearing this, Hou Yong sighed slightly.
The few implicit meanings are that there is nothing left of those who were killed. Some things were corrupt and perverted, some were related to major court cases, and some were done poorly.
"Jing Wei is an incorruptible official, and he has done very well in the local area in recent years!" Yang Jing said in a low voice, "But Jinghe is different from the local area, especially your position as the right minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.
It’s not enough, you have to be careful!”
"Besides, evaluating officials all over the world is a job that offends people. Sometimes you even don't know who you offend or how."
"Let's talk between you and me. Although Mr. Ling is old, he is still energetic and his back is straighter than breaking down a door. If it weren't for the fact that this job is so offensive, how could he...?"
Hou Yong sighed slightly, "Brother Zhong Ning's golden words, I have learned from you!"
How could he not know what the other party said? When you are an official in a local area, you are a high official in the border area. Even if you make a mistake, you have room for change. But when you are an official in the capital, the slightest mistake will be criticized by everyone.
"What kind words? It's just what I say from my heart!" Yang Jing said with a smile, "You are an honest official, and there has been no criticism at all these years. There is a rumor in Kyoto that the officials will come to Hou Tiemian. In the future, the officials will be iron-headed and iron-faced.
Faced with this, I’m afraid officials in the world will not have a good life!”
Hou Yong smiled bitterly, "I just abide by the integrity of my ministers and follow the way of the saints. I am not a tricky person!"
"I really want you to be that cunning person!" Yang Jing said again, "As long as you, the right servant in charge of assessment, show a little concern for favors, I don't know how many people will be looking for ways to find you."
After hearing this, Hou Yong suddenly remembered his mother's nagging just now and couldn't help but sigh heavily.
"Why are you always sighing?" Yang Jingqi asked, "But is there anything you can't get over?"
The two were close friends, and Hou Yong did not hide anything from each other. He directly recounted what his mother had said to him after he came back from the palace in the afternoon.
After hearing this, Yang Jing smiled and said, "People should not forget their roots. Supporting relatives is what they should do. Don't mention you. Over the years I have been in Beijing, my father has scolded me several times for this matter every year when I receive letters from my family."
He shook his head and said, "Help me, I'm really afraid that they will pretend to be powerful. Don't help me. In fact, sometimes I can't live with it!"
His words were truly inspired. In fact, in history, in the 30th year of Hongwu, Yang Jing helped his fellow villagers change the complaint. As a result, he was poisoned and drank to death by the old man. He was only 30 years old when he died.
"Brother Zhong Ning and I are different. My family is a big family, with hundreds of relatives." Hou Yong sighed, "There are also countless people who have been released to the fifth server! Logically speaking, there is no saying that the family is not good.
That’s the truth. But my family knows their own affairs, and most of my people are farmers. If I help one, I have to go to the whole gang, otherwise I will be infamy.”
Yang Jing thought about it and smiled, "You don't have to worry. In fact, I have a solution?"
After saying that, he paused and said, "You also said that your family is from a wealthy family, why don't you run a school in your hometown?"
"Huh?" Hou Yong was puzzled for a moment.
"You see, most of your people make a living by farming, so it's natural that they have to rely on you to become a high official like you. If you set up a clan school and let the clan's children study, it is equivalent to giving them a way out!" Yang Jing added, "
You, the minister of the dynasty, are running a school, and you don’t show your support at the local level? Of course you have to cooperate fully. By then, you will have a good reputation inside, and the family will also have a good reputation."
"If you run a school and let all the children of the clan go to school, it will be a bowl of water. There is no problem of not helping anyone. There is also no problem of you not helping your relatives. Even if there are some short-sighted people, if they have to ask you, you will do that.
Let’s just talk about clan theory!”
Hou Yong thought for a long time and sighed, "This is a way, but how much does it cost to run a school?" After saying that, he paused, "The silks and satins that the Holy Spirit gave me today can last for several years. Haha, I also made a trip.
God of Wealth!"
"There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain!" Yang Jing said with a smile, "This is not the time to worry about these things. Come on, follow me out!"
"Where to go?" Hou Yong asked doubtfully.
"You have the nerve to ask, but when I came to your house to visit, it didn't matter that I didn't prepare any food or drinks. You didn't even bring me tea, so I just sat there for a long time!" Yang Jing said with a smile, "Of course I went out to eat and drink with me!"
"Ah, I was negligent. You don't have to go out, I just prepare the food like a mother-in-law. But you also know that I have never eaten well, and I'm afraid you won't be used to it!" Hou Yong said with a smile.
"Let's go, let's go out to eat. I've booked a banquet at Taibai Tower!" Yang Jing said with a smile, "The cook there is from Huai'an, and his Huaiyang cuisine is famous throughout the capital! Today, I will welcome you!"
"No, no, no!" Hou Yong waved his hand quickly, "It's too expensive!"
"Let's go!" Yang Jing pulled him with a smile, "If you don't go, tomorrow you will have another nickname added to your name in Beijing!" He said with a smile, "Hou Tiemian, Hou Laoji! Haha!"
Then he laughed and cursed again, "I didn't know, I thought you were a Shanxi old man!!"
"The difference between these words is that Shanxi is diligent and frugal, not stingy! Du You of the Tang Dynasty said that Shanxi's soil is barren and its people are diligent and thrifty. Liu Zongyuan also said that its people are frugal and have the virtue of gentleness, respect and restraint. The people are simple in nature and use money well.
Frugal but not extravagant, the custom is to be frugal, and human nature is simple." Hou Yong was pushed by Yang Jing and said loudly, "You and I are ministers of the country, we cannot easily make fun of the people of the place, we must be careful in our words and deeds! If you have such thoughts
, it is inevitable that things will be unfair in the future. The Ming Dynasty does not distinguish between north and south, so why did the people give the name of the play?"
"Okay, okay, I'm wrong!" Yang Jing said with a smile, "I'm wrong, why not? Let's go, let's go, I'm afraid the food will get cold after a while!"
