Xu Yun smiled slightly: "Tea is not intentional. If the drinker has intention, tea will have its Zen meaning."
"Yes." Ruolai Shiwen nodded thoughtfully: "In today's impetuous era, there are not many people who can really sit down and drink tea and realize Zen. Whenever I feel that I am full of
When the world is full of sins, I always like to sit here and make a pot of good tea."
If Lai Shiwen wants to play deep, then Xu Yun will play with him.
"Tasting tea can purify the soul, filter out impetuosity, and precipitate life insights." Xu Yun also looked like he could see through the world.
To be honest, Xu Yun couldn't figure out what Ruolai Shiwen was thinking. At first, he kept asking Xu Yun if he had any needs.
And when Xu Yun said that he had some minor troubles and really needed his help, he pretended not to hear anything and started chatting about tea and Zen.
This old fox was just testing whether Xu Yun's so-called "trouble" was urgent and important to Xu Yun.
If Xu Yun cares about it very much, Xu Yun will definitely show his intention to bring the topic back to the topic. In this case, it means that Xu Yun urgently needs his help in this matter, and Ruolai Shiwen will lend a helping hand at this time.
, which is called providing help in times of need.
In this case, Ruo Lai Shiwen would have certain requirements for Xu Yun. After all, providing help in times of need is a kind of kindness.
However, Xu Yun showed no intention to bring the topic back.
This shows that Xu Yun does not want Ruolai Shiwen to feel that he must ask for his things. For Xu Yun, this is definitely not the feeling he wants to show.
What effect Xu Yun wants is to make Ruolai Shiwen feel that he may have a chance to help Xu Yun solve the problem, and Xu Yun does not mean that Ruolai Shiwen can't do it without him.
This can only be said to be the icing on the cake, not a timely help.
The nature of these two things is completely different. To put it bluntly, they are two completely different concepts.
It's like a football match. There's half a minute left and the score is zero to zero. The forward of the Chinese team kicks the football directly into the gate guarded by the European team players! When the European team players' confusion ends, the referee's
The whistle also sounded, and the Chinese team beat the European team 1-0 to win the Hercules Cup!
This ball is a timely help, and we can't do anything without it.
To put it another way, in the group stage, the Chinese national football team was beaten 2-0 by a fragmented team from a war-torn country in South Asia. The national football team had no hope of qualifying, so they gave up. Then the country played again one minute before the end of the game.
Scored a one-on-one goal.
This is the icing on the cake, it just makes the score better. Neither scoring nor not scoring can change the final possibility of this matter.
Of course, most people will never see the first metaphor in this life. The possibility of the second metaphor will basically be seen once every four years. Fortunately, this time, I was lucky and qualified. Xu Yun remembered the last time he qualified.
At that time, he was not taller than a car, but now he is taller than an off-road vehicle.
Back to the topic, Xu Yun made some Zen talk about tea in the foggy mountains, which made Ruolai Shiwen look like flowers in the mist.
"Life is like tea, and tea is like life. Tea is a metaphor for a person's life." Xu Yun boasted: "The first tea in life, the first taste, is bitter and tasteless, just like the bitter years at the beginning of life. It needs to be polished at this time.
Inspire your mind, work your muscles and bones, bathe in the wind and rain, and pursue the fragrance of the tea of life."
Xu Yun didn't dare to say whether Ruolai Shiwen could listen to it, but Xiaoya was completely fascinated.
She was completely fascinated by Xu Yun's erudition and eloquence.
Of course, Xiaoya knew very well that a woman of her status was not worthy of such an outstanding man in front of her.
It's just that she was lucky enough to meet such an outstanding man once in her life, so it was considered a life worth living. If there was another life, she would definitely not choose this path.
In other words, if she could have known Xu Yun a few months earlier, she would not have embarked on this path.
Xiaoya just didn't survive the bitter years at the beginning of her life. She couldn't endure the hardening of her mind, the fatigue of her muscles and bones, and the bathing of wind and rain, so she didn't taste the tea of life.
The fragrance, thus reduced to this.
Xu Yun is still talking about: "Rebuild and taste again, extract the essence and essence of tea, and you will first feel the mellow and rich aroma, with endless aftertaste. At this time, life is in its prime, full of youthful vitality, and the career is at its peak, and you can experience the joy of success after all hardships."
, this is the second cup of tea in life.”
These words obviously resonated very strongly with Ruolai Shiwen.
Indeed, no one knows better than him what it feels like to be rewarded after suffering. If Lai Shiwen could be where he is today, the suffering he had to endure would definitely be beyond the imagination of today's young people.
Few young people today can survive the bitter times he endured back then.
When Xu Yun said these words, Ruolai Shiwen had to admire him. He was such a genius that he could have such profound life experience at such a young age!
"Then again, the mellow fragrance gradually dissipates, leaving only a faint aftertaste, just like in the later years of life, the prosperity dissipates, the splendid silence, returning to nature, everything is indifferent, entering the realm of being unfazed by favors and disgrace, leaving and leaving unintentionally." Xu Yun finished.
, drank all the tea in the cup: "Big boss, do you think what I said is right?"
"I really admire you for your understanding." Ruolai Shiwen's words were sincere and there was no so-called hypocrisy.
At this point, Xu Yun knew that the other party wanted to take the initiative to change the subject, but he deliberately continued to delay.
"Some people say that tasting tea is like tasting life. Only after experiencing the ups and downs can the intoxicating and mellow fragrance be achieved. Tea is as sweet as the heart of orchid, and tasting tea is about Taoism. One brew and one drink, one sink and one float, release the tranquility of spring and summer.
The fierceness of autumn, the mellowness of autumn, and the crispness of winter." Xu Yun talked with no intention of stopping: "Taste carefully, it may be bitter or sweet, or mellow or tranquil, the meaning is long, and what you appreciate is the delicate fragrance of life."
"Yes, yes, yes." Ruolai Shiwen was no longer interested in listening at this moment.
Although he has a very good taste in tea, he is by no means a person who truly understands the Zen meaning of tea.
So Ruolai Shiwen is not interested in these things that Xu Yun really said. His interests are all in power and money.
A person who truly understands the Zen meaning of tea will not pursue power and money like Ruolai Shiwen.
"Tea embodies a person's life, whether it is beautiful or troubled, lonely or regretful... Only when you taste it slowly can you taste the flavor of life. Just as you should not rush through life, don't miss the best scenery along the way." Xu Yun said
He stood and looked out the window at the scenery: "The scenery here is really unforgettable."
"Really?" Ruolai Shiwen finally seized the opportunity to change the subject: "Just downstairs, there are several suites that I specially decorated. When friends come over on weekdays, they all choose to stay overnight."
"Really?" Xu Yun pretended to be surprised: "Not many people can be honored by such a good place, right?"
Ruolai Shiwen nodded: "In my eyes, there will never be more than ten friends who can stay with me, and Brother Xu Yun, you are one of them."
"Then I'm really honored. The big boss can think so highly of me. I don't even know what I should say." After Xu Yun finished speaking, he glanced at Xiaoya.
Xiaoya knew that her fate might be about to change.
"Brother has such a beautiful girlfriend, let's stay here tonight and have a good time." Ruolai Shiwen said: "I don't have such a good girlfriend as my brother."
"The big boss is slapping me in the face again." Xu Yundao said: "Xiaoya, since the big boss thinks so highly of you, how about you chat with the big boss tonight?"
The disappointment on Xiaoya's expression was definitely not an act.
This scene was reflected not only in Ruolai Shiwen's eyes, but also in Xu Yun's eyes.
If Lai Shiwen's eyes were obviously glowing green, for him, there really was no shortage of women, but what he lacked was a kind of stimulation. For example, in front of a woman's man, he could be attracted to this woman. This is if
The stimulation that Lai Shiwen needs.
"I follow your arrangement." Xiaoya didn't even know how she opened her mouth.
