Chapter 28 On the Water Side(2/3)
It took only a day or two to go out, so Yuanxi entrusted his teaching tasks to the three of Kong Lixiang and his brothers, and Cheng Yunde also greeted the three of them. The three knew that Yuanxi and Cheng had to go out for a long time, so they agreed. Yuanxi and Cheng Yunde proposed to give the three of them the gains from the time they went out. In addition, the three of them did not refuse according to the master's wishes.
According to Cheng Yunde's intention, it is worth the Martial Arts' salary to be given a new set of boxing and marksmanship by Yuan Xi alone, and Yuan Xi refused.
Yuan Xi’s truth is very simple, I don’t think I’m losing money.
Perhaps in Yuan Xi's eyes, this was a fair exchange in his heart, and in Cheng Yunde's heart, he recorded this favor from Yuan Xi.
Sometimes when you get married, I will send you a gift when you get married, and I will give you a gift for my family. I will give you a congratulations.
This ceremony has become another ceremony, a ceremony that can be measured by money.
But there is another kind of ritual, which is friendship.
People often say that talking about money hurts feelings.
But some people say, brothers, settle accounts clearly.
How can the word "Friendship" be calculated clearly? Anyone who has calculated it will be in vain, because these friendships have been calculated completely in the process of calculating them.
During Yuanxi's growth, Mr. Shan once told him.
In everything, why do people measure one or two? It’s just for the word gain and loss.
But do you really need to worry about it? It is needed, very necessary, because without measuring, it will be difficult to achieve a so-called fairness in the process of exchange.
The fairness brought by this measurement is precisely a derivative of people's exchange activities that have been going on over time, and is where people agree.
Speaking of this, Mr. Shan mentioned an emperor, the First Emperor.
Just talking about this person who unified the world and ordered the unification of words, currency, and weights and measures was a great achievement for future generations.
Mr. Shan did not tell his comments on the emperor in front of Yuan Xi.
I just said to Yuan Xi that most people evaluate a person's good or bad, and are often used to using their own interests as references.
If you talk about irrelevant people, you often seem to be more wise and say something fair. If you just fall into yourself, you may not be so righteous.
Mr. Shan asked Yuanxi to remember that you can have your likes and evils, but your likes and dislikes are not the good and evils of others, good and bad.
People often stay close to good and far away from evil, mostly for their own sake to seek profit and avoid disaster. Even if they can get nothing, they can still be at ease.
But everything is complicated, so don’t easily say that people are good or bad, or that people are good or bad. Maybe your nonsense speculation can hurt people for a lifetime.
Great achievements do not conceal small mistakes, big things do not eliminate small mistakes.
Similarly, there is no reason to kill a person with one blow, and there are no mistakes.
Yuan Xi remembered a lot of what the master said.
I got up at dawn, slapped a few sets of fists, exercised my muscles and bones, and went to the martial arts field to tell the three disciples that I should not be lazy in practicing martial arts and not lose my face.
When the three disciples heard that Professor Yuan was going out for a long time, they felt a little sad, so they patted their chests and said, "Don't worry, Professor Yuan."
After having breakfast in my room, Yuanxi went to the backyard to take a look and happened to see that he was right and wrong and was fed to him.
What surprised him was that Xiao Fei actually dared to squat beside Tao Fei. Tao Fei was eating, and the right and wrong were right next to him to straighten Dou Fei's hair.
Seeing Yuan Xi coming, Cheng Shifei called out "Brother Yuan" and then rubbed Dou Fei's head with his hands.
Yuanxi saw that he was showing off to himself and said,
"Xiao Fei, it's not bad, aren't you afraid of teasing Fei?"
Dou Fei also raised his head at this time and wagged his tail at Yuan Xi with joy.
He laughed,
"It is my good friend, how can you be afraid of it? Brother Yuan, you will go out tomorrow, have you cleaned up your things?"
Yuanxi nodded and said,
"It's just some replacement clothes, easy to clean up. Xiao Fei, I'll go out for a walk, should I go together?"
After thinking about right and wrong, he asked,
"Brother Yuan, where are you going? Do you need me to accompany you? If not, I will go to my brother-in-law's house later to see if there is anything I need to help."
Yuanxi shook his head and said,
"Xiao Fei, except for your palm technique, has Cheng Shibo taught you what weapons you have? If you teach me, you will take it with you. It is better to go to Jingzhou here, not to travel around, but to be more prepared."
Cheng Shifei, who had already stood up, raised his eyebrows at Yuan Xi, blinked his eyes and said,
"Dad said that he learned this rock-opening palm technique from his master to practice swords, so I learned the sword. Dad also told me that the knife I brought tomorrow was the one I had with him in my early years."
He rubbed his round belly with a proud look on his face and asked,
"Does Brother Yuan have any handy weapons?"
Yuanxi said as she looked at the comfortable kamishes being rubbed,
"I'll go out and have a look. If there is a suitable one, I want to buy a sword."
"Jian, Brother Yuan, I thought you were going to play a gun, why don't I help you with one?"
Yuanxi smiled,
"No, I'm out, you're here to play with the fun."
Yuanxi left the martial arts hall and walked towards the north of the city.
Lu Guanju looked at a black dot that appeared in the distance, and then slowly became bigger. A figure appeared in her eyes. For some reason, her heartbeat was a little fast.
Before the third rod was harvested, the guest had to shore. The old boatman collected the fishing rod, and the long pole entered the water, and the flying boat was like an arrow.
After leaning against the shore, Lu Guanju jumped off the boat and walked towards Yuanxi.
The sun shines on Lao Zhouzi's face, who has collected money, and his smile is as bright as light.
This guest is so generous.
When he approached the lake, Yuanxi began to look around, but no one appeared around. He only saw a small boat rowing towards the shore in the blue sky and clear water. Yuanxi had never seen this lake view since he was a child. Most of the Tianyu Mountains are beautiful and there is the gurgling stream. It was only the second time he saw such a large lake.
Zhouzi was docked, and one person came down and walked towards him. Yuanxi thought to himself, could it be that this person asked him to go forward?
As the two got closer, Lu Guanju became a little nervous and her throat became tight. After all, it was inevitable that people would misunderstand what they wanted to say. She was thinking about how to speak.
When she was about twenty or thirty feet apart, she stopped and turned to look at the lake. She put her plain hands on her chest, gently holding her belt.
Yuanxi didn't expect that the person coming from the other side would be her.
When the two approached, the familiar smell floated into their hearts again. Yuanxi slowed down and pretended to look at the scenery, but was thinking in his heart that since he had met, should he say hello?
He believed in his heart that the person he had made an appointment with would definitely not be her, especially when he saw Lu Guanju standing by the roadside, Yuan Xi was even more sure.
It seems that I don’t even need to call him, so I’d better find someone to meet him.
Thinking of this, Yuan Xi seemed to have put down a stone in his heart, and his steps were almost a little higher.
When he passed by that figure, Yuan Xi felt a little empty.
At this moment, a small voice came to my ears.
“Hey~”
Lu Guanju lowered her head, as if she was looking at the lake, but in fact she was all focused on the figure behind her. Seeing that he was about to miss her, she had to squeeze out a faint sound of mosquito ants from her mouth.
Yuanxi stopped, stood behind Lu Guanju, and asked in confusion.
"Miss Lü, are you calling me?"
When Lu Guanju turned around, he almost collided with Yuan Xi, and said a little annoyed,
"You are the only one next to you, who are you calling? Why are you standing so close? Are you trying to take advantage of this girl?"
Yuanxi looked surprised, why did he get angry after a disagreement? He didn't seem to have done anything, but he just stood closer, not because she suddenly turned around.
But she looked so pretty when she turned her head.
Yuan Xi took a step back and spoke,
"Miss Lü, I wonder what's going on?"
Seeing Yuan Xi retreating half a step, for some reason, Lu Guanju felt a little annoyed again. She glared at the apricot and was about to speak, but when she heard Yuan Xi's question, she remembered that she had asked someone to come over and did not leave her name.
Thinking of this, she was completely unconfident and said softly,
"Young Master Yuan, I asked you to come to the lake."
Since childhood, Yuan Xi has never dealt with women of the same age. He is mostly Wang Lizhuang's aunt.
Although Lu Guanju is dressed in a man, she still cannot hide her beauty.
Looking from afar, it is as beautiful as the morning glow rising tomorrow, and looking from afar, it is as bright as a hibiscus ripples from green waves.
The master never taught Yuanxi the relationship between men and women, but just told him that by then, he would understand it if he understood it. If he didn’t understand it, he would not have reached that time.
At this time, maybe it was then that he only thought that the woman in front of him was beautiful, really beautiful.
After the last time they parted, Yuan Xi felt regretful. I wonder if the two would meet again in the future. Unexpectedly, they met again so soon, and it was still her appointment with me.
The doves are singing in the river island, and the beautiful ladies are the same as gentlemen.
Lu Guanju is such a good name.
