Chapter 100 The Way of Heaven
There is a parable in the New Testament Matthew:
To everyone who has, more will be given to him, so that he will have more; but whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.
Chapter 77 of "Laozi" also said this: "The way of heaven is to make up for the deficiency when there is more damage; the way of man is to make up for the deficiency when there is more damage."
Shen Guanglin made this interpretation: The way of heaven means that the part that protrudes from the body needs to be cut off, and the part that is recessed from the body needs to be replaced.
My brother-in-law Shen Longxian has become more and more happy recently.
Stable job, happy family, good health, and everything goes well.
Now, the eldest brother's son has been found, the family's ancestral home has been taken back, and the son is studying hard.
Everything is developing for the best.
He never thought about how much the things he "collected" could be worth. No matter how much money he spent, he couldn't buy a good son who was "easy to learn".
This son who was originally miserable has miraculously improved. Under the couple's supervision, the progress he makes every day is visible to the naked eye.
With his cousin's scientific guidance and rigorous planning, as well as the careful guidance of a specially hired tutor, it seems that his son's "correction" and "success" are just around the corner.
There really is no regret in life.
If his son Shen Houdao hadn't been young, Old Shen would have wanted to propose a marriage to his son. This was his last wish in life.
Although Lao Shen is only 46 this year, he can still have another child if he works hard.
However, he is already planning to have children and grandchildren.
When he is over forty, he feels that he has nothing to regret even if he suddenly leaves, because he has no other goal to strive for.
Now, the only one who is unhappy in the whole family is his cousin.
His current schedule is very tight and his daily schedule is very full.
I have to get up early every day and work hard every day without being able to relax even a little bit. I will be beaten severely if I stray even a little bit.
It's all thanks to that cousin.
Recently, I ate too much fried meat with bamboo shoots, and the small bamboo boards were broken. Shen Longxian made a few new ones. Anyway, there are two acres of bamboo forest at home.
The old injury on Shen Houdao's butt has not healed yet and a new injury has appeared. He really doesn't know when he will be healed. It would be better if his cousin returned to the capital as soon as possible.
Instead of returning to the capital, my cousin is returning to Jinling. It is said that he has brought the best safflower oil in the world.
...
When traveling on a rainy day, the river scenery is beautiful and the people are even more beautiful.
Because it goes upstream along the river, it takes about three hours to get to Xiaguan Pier in Jinling from Yangzhou.
Shen Guanglin travels with two beauties, has money and leisure, and satisfies all the imagination of people in this era for a better life.
Ordinarily, it would be unreasonable to go on such a trip without encountering a few hooligans who failed to strike up a conversation.
However, Shen Guanglin and his friends were not lucky enough and the story did not happen.
The combination of handsome men and beautiful women really attracted people's attention, and there were many people watching them secretly, but I didn't encounter anyone who came up to strike up a conversation.
Otherwise, I could have written a whole chapter on the first day it was released.
In this era, a 23-year-old girl must have already considered her marriage, and Jiang Zhenhua is no exception.
Being bored on the road, Li Rong naturally talked to her about her views on marriage and asked her what her plans were.
Everyone has the right to pursue happiness.
Jiang Zhenhua has indeed fantasized about her future marriage and happiness. Her ideal goal is to marry a soldier, so that she will not be affected by the movement. It would also be good to be a family member of the army.
"How could you have such an idea?" Li Rong expressed her confusion.
"There is a woman in our village who has a bad background. She went to the Western Regions and married a man from the Construction Corps. When she came back, she said that she could farm whatever she wanted, and that the Corps was in charge of food, housing, and no sports."
That’s what happened.
"However, their lives may not be happy."
Just like a person drinking water, he knows whether it is warm or cold.
In fact, many girls back then were deceived and got married because they had no other choice.
After arriving in the Western Regions, I was smart enough to find a relatively healthy person with basically sound limbs and marry him early.
Those who looked pretty good and had more "axial" personalities were resistant to death at first, but later their attitudes softened and they found that most of the people left behind were seriously injured people who were disabled due to the war.
Marrying a hero is wonderful, but living with a hero may not be truly wonderful.
"Police, have you considered it?" Shen Guanglin suddenly asked.
"Ah, what?" Jiang Zhenhua was startled. A girl is talking privately. Why are you interrupting?
"I know a single policeman who is very honest. He was once my roommate. He joined the army and fought in the war and made meritorious service."
Shen Guanglin jumped in immediately. He hadn't contacted Brother Hao for a long time, and he didn't know if he had found a partner now.
Jiang Zhenhua didn't have much confidence in herself, and she didn't read many books. Most of them still accepted the traditional education from her father.
"Can people like me?"
These words are full of lack of confidence in herself. She looks dignified. According to Shen Guanglin, Xiao Liu has already reached a high level.
"Definitely. This Rongrong can testify that the young man is a real person. His hometown is Cangzhou. He participated in the battle against Vietnam to defend the South China Sea in his early years. He has no partner yet."
Li Rong interjected and confirmed Shen Guanglin's statement: "Yes, this Liu Hao is indeed a good young man, and I know him too."
In fact, Li Rong also had other thoughts in mind. Liu Wentian, who came to Jinling with her on a business trip last time, has connections with Jinling in his family. If he could be with Jiang Zhenhua, he would be a good match.
In the end, she didn't dare to mention anything because Teacher Shen hated him so much that she tried to beat him several times but never got the chance.
It was already afternoon when we arrived at Jinling. The three of us took a taxi home after landing.
Shen Guanglin found that the taxi service in Jinling was much better than that in Beijing. Taking a taxi here is easy and smooth, and the service attitude is also very good.
In Beijing, all taxis are operated by state-owned entities, and the vehicles are in pretty good condition. Most of them are Toyota Crowns and the like, but the prices are extremely expensive. Only some foreigners take taxis.
The taxis in Jinling are completely different. They take the route that is friendly to the people and the price is quite cheap. It only costs 2 cents per kilometer. Although it is still more expensive than the 4 cents bus, it is completely within the affordability of ordinary citizens.
Two went away and three came back.
Shen Guanglin's trip to visit his relatives was well worth it. In addition to bringing back two gold bars, he also kidnapped a large living person.
…
The ancestral home of the Shen family has arrived.
This uncle was also the first time Jiang Zhenhua met. When she came as a guest, she was warmly welcomed by the Shen family, especially kind and kind. He thought she was his cousin, but later he found out that she was actually his niece.
Of course, both uncle and grandpa are called niece, one word, two uses.
My brother-in-law is also extremely disapproving of his niece's participation in the "transmutation", "If the second sister has no money, just say so. There is no need to bet on the happiness of future generations."
Shen Guanglin took out two large yellow croakers given to him by his second aunt: "Auntie is not without money, she is too principled. It is better to keep these two gold bars with you. It is useless for me to hold them. Their family has no money." Please help me more when the time comes, because my cousin and nephew are just idiots and cannot be used much."
When Jiang Zhenhua heard that her father and eldest brother were described as idiots by her uncle, Jiang Zhenhua could only pretend not to hear it, and it would be better to bury her head in eating. However, she saw gold and took a few glances at it.
"This is the money that eldest brother left for you. I can't take it." My uncle Shen Longxian also had this humble attitude.
This is good, at least Shen Guanglin feels comfortable.
"Brother-in-law, this is what my father left for you. I didn't exist at that time. Let's not get too separated. We are all one family."
Shen Guanglin insisted on keeping it and asked his uncle to change it into cash so that he could help his aunt's family more in the future.
Shen Longxian reluctantly agreed.
At the dinner table, in addition to talking about family matters, my uncle was very grateful to Shen Guanglin because his cousin's academic progress was really great.
The tutors who hired him all said that Shen Houdao was a smart kid, but he didn't put his energy into studying before, and now it's not too late to wake up.
It’s not too late to realize this, but it’s a bit hurtful.
At least Shen Houdao felt hurt.
Naturally, the second thing Shen Guanglin did when he arrived in Jinling was to check on his cousin's study status.
People are forced to come out, and it’s not that my cousin can’t learn well, he just needs to be put under pressure.
Please try your best!
Relying on "waiting" and "luck" to become a demolition second generation has no future. The money you earn will make your food more delicious.
Shen Guanglin also told his uncle that this guy has a tendency to fall in love early and must be stopped in time.
My uncle was originally hesitant about how good it would be to have a partner. Anyway, we won’t suffer any loss.
However, after he saw the girl's appearance, he decisively decided to end the relationship early, and we suffered a loss.
That Xiaohui looks really average and is not tall. Apart from a bit of a feminine symbol, I don't know what Shen Houdao likes about her. If she doesn't change, let Shen Houdao change it himself.
In the future, there will be a very beautiful little girl waiting for him, so don't worry.
Originally, according to the plan, Shen Guanglin had to live in Jinling for a while. Anyway, it was still early before school started.
However, Li Rong received a telegram from Lao Li: Her college entrance examination results were out and she was about to fill out her application form. He asked her what her plans were.
What else could I plan to do? Naturally, I would go to Beijing University, where Brother Guanglin teaches.
However, Li Rong obviously overestimated her own strength. Even if her grades were in Beijing, where the score line was very low, and even if her family had a strong relationship, she could not be admitted to Beijing University.
After all, I have wasted my studies for several years and can get admitted to Beijing University with just a little hard work. Even if I write a fantasy novel, I would not dare to do this.
Otherwise, what's the point of trying hard.
Chapter completed!
