"Why teachers don't teach teachers? To be honest, we are just talking. Relatively speaking, people like you, old people, are more important. You can grow food so that people can eat, raise an army to resist the invasion of enemy countries, and make people
The world is peaceful, but we talkers are insignificant," Li Qiu said in a half-joking and half-serious tone.
It is obvious that he is a person who is easy to get along with, and he also knows how to take care of people's self-esteem. He can even have a conversation with a low-level person like Yun Lin.
I have to say that this is the true expression of a person's knowledge and cultivation.
Li Qiu's words made Yunlin feel that something was wrong, but he couldn't explain it. He could only wave his hands in a reserved and awkward manner: "It's not as important as you said, we just grow some food..."
While the waiter was weighing the honey, Li Qiu chatted with Yun Lin. He said, "The old man sat down and talked while eating. The porridge will be cold by the time."
"Okay, okay, okay..." Yun Lin said quickly.
This man was a scholar. He actually chatted with me so kindly and was so polite. It was enough to brag about him for a lifetime. He was so happy that he said three good words in a row before sitting down.
Li Qiu also took advantage of the situation and sat on the edge, with his back straight and his hands on his knees together, and asked: "Old man, where do you live?"
"We are from Xiaoxi Village," Yun Lin replied after taking a sip of porridge. He was afraid that drinking porridge would delay the conversation and cause Li Qiu's displeasure, so he simply put down the bowl.
Li Qiu said nonchalantly: "Old man, don't worry about me. Just do whatever you want. I've heard of Xiaoxi Village, but I've never been there. It's dozens of miles away. Isn't it hard for you to come to the town?"
"It's not hard, it's not hard, I'm used to it," Yun Lin said cheerfully. He was really used to it, so he didn't feel like it was hard.
A sigh flashed in his eyes, and Li Qiu asked with a smile: "What do you usually do, old man? How is your life at home? Haha, don't worry, I don't want to inquire about your family's privacy. We are just scholars. Many times
It must be combined with reality, otherwise it will just be empty talk..."
The silent Yunjing thought to himself that this is what a true scholar should look like.
At this moment, Yunjing expressed doubts about the authenticity of the saying, "A hundred useless people are scholars." If all scholars are like Li Qiu, are they really useless?
It is said that scholars in ancient times, in addition to reading and literacy, also had to learn things like riding, shooting, and fighting. The important thing is to be able to rule the country with a pen, and to kill the enemy on horseback!
So where does the saying ‘a useless scholar’ come from?
After thinking about it, Yunjing found that he had no memory of this aspect in his mind, but it was not appropriate to bring such common sense issues in the past life memory to this world. Then he stopped thinking about it and quietly drank porridge and listened to Li Qiuhe.
Yunlin chatting...
After a while, Xiao Lin, who went to weigh the honey, came back. Standing next to Li Qiu, he said respectfully: "My boss, the peeled honey costs two pounds, eighty taels, and five cents."
Nodding to show that he understood, Li Qiu looked at Yunlin and said, "Old man, do you have any objection to the weight? If not, we will accept this deal. If so, we will go to another place to weigh it."
"I can trust Mr. Li, so let's do this," Yun Lin said quickly.
The reason for this is that the estimated weight in Yunlin's heart is actually similar to this, and Li Qiu's identity as a scholar accounts for most of the weight.
Smiling, Li Qiu said: "According to what I just said, if you add one tael to this weight, it will be two catties and nine taels for five cents. Let's just round it up and calculate it as three catties!"
"No, no, it's just a pound. How can I take advantage of Mr. Li? It's absolutely not allowed!" Yun Lin stubbornly refused.
Seeing that his attitude was so resolute, Li Qiu did not insist and nodded: "That's okay, just do what you said, old man, two pounds and eighty-five dollars, fifteen and a half dollars per pound, the total is... I'll do the math...
Calculate……"
Li Qiu, who frowned slightly and was obviously not very good at math, simply got up and went to the counter to help with calculations.
"Forty-four taels and one hundred and seventy-five copper coins."
Yun Jing has long known the common sense that one hundred copper plates is equivalent to one tael of silver in this world, so when Li Qiu just got up to find the chips, he did the math in his mind.
Of course, he didn't tell anyone the results of his mental arithmetic so as not to scare people.
Teachers have to use calculation chips to figure it out in the shortest time. Is it scary for a two-year-old baby to figure it out in the blink of an eye?
However, Yunjing was also a little surprised at this moment. Not only did his memory far exceed that of his previous life, but he could even do mental arithmetic so quickly. How could he have such a memory and sensitive consciousness in his previous life?
Once again, Yunjing began to examine this issue. His memory far exceeded that of his previous life. Could it be related to reincarnation?
But after thinking about it, he felt that it didn't matter much. After all, since he was born, when he was conscious, he didn't have the memory he has now. It only got better later.
But what exactly caused it?
Could it be related to mentality?
"Tell me a joke. If you are bored every day, look at the world and nature, appreciate the beautiful side of the world, and have peaceful thoughts. It will improve your family's living conditions and make you happy physically and mentally. It will fill your family's faces with smiles and make you feel happy. This will improve your memory.
Get better?"
Thinking of this, Yunjing himself felt that it was unreliable, but his subconscious told him that it might really be like this!
However, he believed that this was something he was born with and grew as he grew up. However, this reason could not convince him...
Over there, Li Qiu worked hard for nearly five minutes before he finally figured it out. He looked at Yun Lin and said, "Old man, I've calculated it. There are a total of forty-four taels and one hundred and seventy-five copper coins. Are you right?"
It’s the same as Yun Jing’s mental arithmetic.
"ah……?"
Yun Lin was stunned. How could he calculate it? Additions and subtractions within a hundred were hard-earned through decades of life experience. He had to do the math in his mind for a long time, but it suddenly rose to the level of dozens of taels of silver.
, which completely confused him.
Because of his fixed thinking pattern, he was unable to react at the moment and changed the unit from copper plates to silver taels.
What's more, the huge sum of more than forty taels of silver almost knocked him out of his wits.
Thinking about his old Yun family, they had never had so much money. God, what a huge amount of money this was, how they were going to spend it. Yun Lin was trembling a little.
Probably seeing Yun Lin's dilemma, Li Qiu came to him with a calculation chip and showed him the calculations.
Then Yunlin nodded in understanding and said: "Yes, that's all."
In fact, he didn't understand it at all...
Yunjing felt melancholy and didn't know how to count. If he hadn't met an honest man like Li Qiu, Yunlin would have been foolishly happy if he had given him half less.
After the accounts were calculated, it was obvious that there was not that much money in the hotel. Li Qiu asked the waiter named Xiaolin to go back to his house to get the money and gave him a note as a voucher.
After ten or twenty minutes, Xiao Lin got the money back and put it in a heavy cloth bag.
Li Qiu took the money to Yun Lin, opened the cloth bag and said, "Old man, can you count enough? Then I gave the bag to you. This is not a small amount of money for you. Please pay attention to safety. I put some in the bag."
Chaff, lest the money sloshes around in it and makes a noise that will attract others to covet it.”
I have to say that Li Qiu was very considerate and even thought about safety.
After counting the money carefully, Yunlin, who was still feeling dizzy, nodded and said: "Yes, that's all."
As he said that, he put the money bag in his arms. He was very enlightened, but he still felt uneasy. When he saw Yun Jing who was eating and drinking well beside him, he simply put the money bag in Yun Jing's arms and hugged him.
I’m not afraid that Yunjing will panic...
Li Qiu understood Yunlin's behavior after receiving the huge sum of money. He stood up and said: "Old man, if the money and goods are cleared, I will take the honey. Then I won't greet you anymore. It's mainly because I, a junior, like this
I have to take it back and give it to them to taste.”
"Okay, Mr. Li, go and do your work," Yun Lin nodded subconsciously.
Li Qiu walked to the back of the restaurant with a smile, and motioned Xiao Lin to follow him.
After leaving Yunjing and the others' sight, Li Qiu asked, "Have you included an extra tael of honey skin for them?"
"Boss, I did as you were told, and the two pounds of eighty-two-five cents are one tael extra," Xiao Lin replied quickly.
Nodding with satisfaction, Li Qiu said: "You did a good job. I expected that the old man was not willing to take advantage of me, so I ordered you. As expected, it is not easy for country people. This is not a charity for no reason. It's too much."
One or two skins is a matter of course.”
"My boss is benevolent and righteous," Xiao Lin admired.
Shaking his head, Li Qiu said: "Benevolence and righteousness are beyond the pale. If you know more truths and see more suffering, you won't see honest people suffer. Hey..., by the way, I'm warning you, we are the only ones with how much money the old man has."
A few of them know, if something happens to them because you 'deliberately let it slip', don't blame me for ripping off your skin!"
With his heart trembling, Xiao Lin quickly said: "Master, how dare I? I will keep all your teachings in my heart."
"That's good, let's go out. I guess the grandfather and grandson are also gone..."
With that said, Li Qiu came outside with the bamboo tube containing maltose.
Sure enough, Yun Lin and his grandson had already left, but Li Qiuhuang was stunned when he saw the table where they were sitting before, because there were six copper plates on it.
He said before that the two bowls of porridge were free and were worth exactly six copper coins.
Holding the six copper coins in his hands with great care, Li Qiu murmured to himself: "How can such a simple and kind-hearted person not be able to live a good life?"
His words were not just referring to the Yunlin family...
When Li Qiu and the others carried Yun Lin and his grandson, Yun Lin took Yun Jing and left, but before leaving, Yun Jing placed six copper coins on the table.
Yunjing didn't say anything at that time, but looked at his grandfather with curious eyes.
At that time, Yun Lin touched Yun Jing's head and said: "Xiao Jing, you have to know that it is benevolent for someone to treat us to two bowls of porridge, but it is our duty to pay for it. This person, unless it is absolutely necessary, should try to eat as little as possible."
Taking advantage of others, whether you admit it or not, you owe it to others if you take advantage of others. Even if others don't care, we just have to be ourselves. At least we have peace of mind. Grandpa won't talk about it, but I think it makes me feel better.
, Haha, you are still young, you will understand slowly in the future..."
