"I know, it's just that they are better than you in certain things in life." Yu Qiuping didn't mind Yu Qiu Shang's back talk at all, but said in a persuasive way: "For example, wrestling, writing, everyone is good at these things.
In overlapping events, they are better than you."
"But life is not made up of the same events for everyone. It is also full of countless different events." Yu Qiuping gradually slowed down and began to think about the past: "For example, I defeated you today.
That kid is better than you at wrestling, but his life may not be better than yours."
"He is a child of a small wealthy family. His mother has passed away long ago, and his father does not love him. But you are different. You have a mother and father who love you, and so many people care about you. At this point, you
It’s better than him.”
"Let's take Dad for example. Dad, I have always been unwelcome in the Oda family because I am a general of the Imagawa family. According to you, if I was born in Owari, the first family to become an official would be in Owari.
Owari, my life is definitely better than it is now. My lord trusts me more, and my colleagues treat me better."
"But my father never regretted the years he spent with the Imagawa family. On the contrary, he cherished it very much. Because without the years spent with the Imagawa family, I wouldn't have known your mother, I wouldn't have met so many good brothers, and I wouldn't have been treated so kindly and kindly to me.
His Highness the Governor and His Highness Sena, who are as heavy as a mountain." Yu Qiuping paused and continued: "You may say that even in the Oda family, I will meet my wife, good brothers, and
A noble person who treats me with great kindness. But they are different. They are not your mother, His Highness Sena and His Highness the Governor. There is no comparison between them, because this is a completely different life event! This is my unique life.
"
"Shang'er, do you know." Yu Qiuping put his hands behind his back and looked at the bright moon in the sky. His thoughts suddenly drifted far and far away. "In my father's hometown, there is a system called the college entrance examination. All ronin must participate.
That exam and the results of the exam determine their future. Those who do well in the exam can go to better private schools or dojos, and can also work for stronger families in the future. Those who do not do well in the exam can only go to
A dilapidated private school or a desolate dojo may not give you the opportunity to become an official in the future."
"Those who fail to pass the college entrance examination, no matter how hard they work in the future, may not be able to catch up with those who come from well-known families and do well in the college entrance examination. The most regrettable thing is that some people, they are actually very good, just because of a failure in the exam,
After that, he will be on a lower level than the person he was originally 50/50 equal to. Once a person's life is determined, a person's life is destined to fail early. How ironic. Just like you are born without a right hand, isn't this also a destiny?
A lifelong thing?”
Yu Qiu Shang listened to his father's contradictory words and looked at him with some puzzled eyes. However, his father did not look back. He just continued to look at the bright moon and murmured: "However, I feel that the thing is not
There is nothing wrong with the saying that one test determines one's life. What is wrong is everyone's understanding of it. The college entrance examination cannot determine the quality of life, high or low, but only leads life to different paths. Some
However, they have to go to a city thousands of miles away from their hometown, and they miss a lot of time to enjoy family happiness with their parents. Some people regret that they missed it, but in a small gym, they made friends who can help their lives.
.Can you say which one is better and which one is bad? No. These are two completely different lives. They meet different people in different places and have different lives."
"The same goes for you, Shang'er." Yu Qiuping turned around and looked at Yu Qiu Shang, "If you were not reincarnated in our family, but in someone else's family, you might not be missing one hand.
But in that case, you will not meet your father, your mother, your brother, Cheng Yuanwan, your teacher... all the things in your life now
You will never meet anyone, they are all strangers."
"I ask you, if you choose to live your life over again. I will give you my right hand and a fair life, so that you can be as strong as other children as long as you work hard. But in exchange, you will never see the world again.
Would you like your current parents, your younger brother, Seigenmaru, Teacher Takenaka, and all the people you have met in your life?"
Hearing this, Yu Qiu Shang suddenly froze on the spot and stopped in his tracks. Yu Qiu Ping did not urge him, but turned around silently, looking at him calmly, waiting for his answer.
After a while, Yu Qiu Shang shook his head slightly, and then lowered his head.
"Yes, you don't want to. Because this is your unique life. Because of your disability, you will meet different people and experience different things. Maybe you will encounter many hardships in life, but when
You have worked hard to overcome all difficulties and dangers, and the joy you feel when you write your name for the first time cannot be experienced by ordinary people. Because of your disability, your parents and peers may pay special attention to you. In front of them
The pride you feel when you prove yourself is something that ordinary people can’t experience.”
"Everyone's life is different. We were born in different places, have different relatives and friends, experience different things, and live different lives. We only have one life, and we can't do it again.
But they are different. Therefore, we cannot compare life. There is no good or bad in life. Those things that you think are bad and not good may be your most precious memories when you look back after a few years.
.”
Yu Qiuping turned his head, glanced at Yu Qiu Shang, and started walking slowly again, listening to the sound of wooden shoes treading on the loose snow. "Dad and my mother also had a quarrel, and they even broke up. When we first broke up,
, I regret it endlessly. I think it was the darkest and worst moment in my life. But now, when I look back on the past, I will be grateful for that separation. He made us know each other better and allowed us to be together forever.
Let's walk together."
"This is life, wonderful and full of changes. Because of this, there is nothing fair or unfair in it. Everything and everyone will have an impact on your life, and this impact will only happen once, whether good or bad.
.Your disability will also have a unique impact on your life, which is also a part of a unique life."
·
Before they knew it, the two people had reached the top of the mountain.
Yu Qiuping stopped, turned his head, looked at Yu Qiu Shang, and hung the red leaf pendant around his neck again.
"Do you know what this red leaf pendant means?" Yu Qiuping asked with a chuckle.
"I know." Yu Qiu Shang nodded and whispered: "This is a token of love from grandpa to grandma, and later passed to dad; it is also a token of love from mom and dad, so it was passed to me."
"Then do you know what the red leaves mean?" Yu Qiuping smiled again and continued to ask in a low voice.
"I know." Yu Qiu Shang just nodded silently this time without saying much.
Yu Qiu Shang nodded for the third time, spoke in a low voice, and repeated her mother's words at that time: "Hongye can only cry, not laugh. She lives in the red color made of blood, just to prevent everyone from worrying. Her happiness and anger
Sadness and joy are caused by others, and it bears all the pain, leaving only smiling faces for others. It spends its whole life...living for others."
"This kind of life is a tragic life. Shang'er, remember, don't be someone else's red leaf." Yu Qiuping bent down, put his hands on Yu Qiu Shang's shoulders, and said what Imagawa Kaede said to Yu Qiu Shang at that time.
What you said.
"Don't live for others, don't always compare your life with others." Yu Qiuping advised earnestly: "Don't compare with your brother, don't compare with other children, don't compare with your parents or other warriors, let alone
Always regard the position of the young master of the Yuqiu family as the one to whom you compare your life."
"It's too tiring to live in comparison with other people's lives. It's too tiring to live a life for others and for your family. Perhaps, because of your disability, your road in life is harder than others."
·
Speaking of this, Yu Qiuping suddenly stopped. His gaze went over Yu Qiu Shang's shoulders and looked at the mountains covered with heavy snow. The white snow was particularly crystal clear against the moonlight. The shadows of the father and son were reflected in the sky.
It was also very conspicuous on the snow. His eyes followed the shadow, all the way down the mountain road. After a long time, he suddenly smiled.
Yu Qiuping signaled Yu Qiu Shang to look back. Yu Qiu Shang was stunned for a moment and turned his head slowly. Under the moonlight, he saw the footprints he and his father had left on the snow while climbing the mountain, and they continued to spread until they could be seen.
Unclear darkness.
My father's voice also sounded in my ears.
"But this is your unique life path. It is neither better nor worse than others."
"Now that it has started, don't complain, don't be sad, just go on with it bravely."
·
At that moment, Yu Qiu Shang suddenly felt that his eyes suddenly opened up, and there was an indescribable thought in his heart, which was gradually taking over his will. That thought transcended the childish mind and young age, and was a little relieved in a detached way.
He turned back and pushed away his father's hand on his shoulder. He no longer looked back at the footprints behind him, but stepped forward step by step in the snow, staggering forward.
This is my unique life.
You can't compare with other people's lives, and you can't compare with others.
Live your own life, live the way you want to live; instead of working hard to live the way others expect, and complaining because you can't live it.
The disability of my right arm has made my life path the most difficult one.
But it is precisely thanks to its incompleteness that I can have a more unique life.
If you only have one life, why not have the most special one.
