Before school started, Chen Fu went to Jingqi Study Room again.
Teacher Yu Wen was still alone. He made a pot of tea, a plate of fried peanuts and golden beans, and read a book under the banyan tree, enjoying himself.
During the New Year's Day, he was not there, but came back and opened the door on the third or fourth day of the Lunar New Year. It was not that he was lonely, but that his children had already settled in the next door province, and his wife, who had been separated for many years, was also there.
He didn't want to be too troublesome in helping with housework and taking care of the children. After all, he needed to rest for his illness, and he also needed to take care of the study. And although they were said to belong to different regions, they were actually two adjacent ones.
District, it only takes half an hour to take a taxi directly to the door of my wife and children's house.
However, Chen Fu felt that he just liked purity.
"teacher."
"Huh? Oh, Chen Fu."
The old man put down the ancient book in his hand and poured a cup of tea.
Chen Fu took a look at it, but it was a copy of "Yue Jueshu", an unpopular history. For this, he really admired his teacher, who could read any book.
"Why are you free to come here today?"
"No, school will start in a few days. I have some questions to ask the teacher." Chen Fu held the tea cup with both hands and watched the tea fall into the cup.
"Oh? What's the problem?"
"There is one thing that I have to do, so I am considering whether to continue my studies." Although he did not say it clearly, Chen Fu did not hide it.
The old man was a little strange, "Then why do you need to ask me?"
"Um?"
"Since you said the word 'must', you should already have the answer in your heart, right?" The old man leaned on the bamboo chair and shook it twice.
Chen Fu opened his mouth slightly, but was speechless.
The old man glanced at him and said with a smile, "You want to get more recognition, right? This is not good. You have heard too much about decisions.
You will be swayed by other people’s suggestions.”
"I don't know if this is the right thing to do..."
"Whether it's right or not shouldn't be judged by others. You're not going to do anything illegal, criminal or harmful to the world, are you? That's all. Just know what you know." The old man looked at the young man who was still frowning in front of him, with a look in his eyes.
With a wise and profound light, he smiled and asked: "If you still don't understand, let me ask you, if it were you, do you think it was right or wrong for me to report this behavior to my superiors?"
"Well……"
Chen Fu wanted to say that it was right, but when he thought about the old man's current situation, he couldn't help but pause again. Is that right? If he had chosen to remain silent, pretend to be deaf and dumb, and abide by his duty in the workplace, according to his situation at that time, he would have been able to do so now.
At the very least, he should be the principal of a key university, right? But what about now?
Seeing this, the old man laughed at himself: "Don't you even think about it? It's obviously wrong..." After a pause, he continued, "I shouldn't have reacted to my superiors. I should have reported directly to the state capital. If it was
Now, it’s more convenient to go to the inspection team, or post a post, or go to the media..."
Chen Fu was stunned when he heard this.
"So."
With profound words, the old man smiled calmly and said: "Whether you think it is right or not, what does it have to do with me?"
Chen Fu was shocked and suddenly felt a little relieved, but for a while he seemed to be unable to think straight, and his brows wrinkled involuntarily.
The old man took a sip of tea and picked up "The Book of Yue Jue", "People, you can't care too much about other people's judgments, otherwise, no matter how determined and capable you are, you won't be able to accomplish anything."
In silence, Chen Fu held the tea cup and stared at the ripples of the tea, thoughtfully.
The old man stopped talking and just rocked his bamboo chair and read a book, as if he was in a trance.
Not long after, Chen Fu left. He was absent-minded and wanted to talk.
There wasn't much content, so he simply didn't disturb the old man's reading and rest.
However, he didn't know that when he left, the old man still looked at him from behind.
"I hope the child can be taught."
"I'm afraid it's a difficult rock."
"What are you doing here?" The old man looked back and saw a middle-aged uncle walking over, and he couldn't help but frown.
"Don't be so stingy when you're passing by to ask for some tea."
Although it is not a very cold day, the temperature is only about 10 degrees, but the uncle is wearing flip-flops, and the clothes on his body look thin and a little flowery. If Chen Fu hasn't left yet, you will definitely recognize him when you see him, especially
It was the small gourd on his waist, which was particularly eye-catching. He sat down straight away, and the uncle picked up the teapot without any image or politeness and poured it into his mouth. He drank it like a cow's drink.
Mouth.
The old man frowned: "Xiangluo Bichun, you are such a waste of natural resources!"
"Green tea is just green tea. If you put it in a nice package and give it a sexy name, it's still not green tea?" The uncle smiled brightly, but it was a pun.
"Hey, play the piano to the ox."
"Hahaha, I feel relieved to see you so angry." The uncle put down the teapot, grabbed a handful of peanuts from the plate, rubbed off the leather coat, and blew it everywhere.
"You do have some leisure time."
"Don't say that, I'm also very busy..."
"Huh, busy wandering around? Eat and drink?" the old man scoffed, then changed the topic and asked: "Have you found your old friend?"
"Isn't it easy to find? What's difficult is persuading." After picking a few of the biggest peanuts, the uncle looked up and asked with a smile: "How about you come and try?"
"Oh, I am an ordinary person, how dare I get involved in the affairs of you immortals."
