Chapter 32: Bingxue is smart and considerate
In this real world, Yin Zhiping had long been used to being misunderstood by his name. He just smiled and didn't say much.
Yin Fangting watched enough joy from the side, and then explained to Liu Linglong: "Teacher Liu, don't get me wrong. My uncle's "governance" is the "governance" of "governing the country and ensuring national stability", not the "ambition" of "ambition"."
"Oh!" Liu Linglong was slightly surprised when she heard this.
And she suddenly heard the name just now, and was so surprised. Then she remembered that this person was the benefactor who saved her that night. How could she show disrespect for a person because of a name? Not to mention that he was just Yin Zhiping, who was homophones and different characters, even if he was really called Yin Zhiping, he couldn't doubt his character just because of this. Moreover, Yin Zhiping in real history was not like that, that was just a novelist. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but blush and said with a self-deprecating thought: "You are so stinky and beautiful, and you really treat yourself as a little dragon girl?"
After mocking herself, she apologized to Yin Zhiping, took a step forward again, reached out with a smile, and said, "Hello, Mr. Yin, I finally know your name!"
Yin Zhiping smiled and reached out to hold her, jokingly said, "I think you shouldn't know my name."
Liu Linglong smiled embarrassedly and apologized: "I'm so sorry just now. I misunderstood. Don't be surprised!"
"It's nothing, I've been misunderstood for a long time." Yin Zhiping shook his head and smiled, withdrew his hand that he shook with her, then pointed to the seat opposite and said, "Please sit down!"
"Yeah, okay!" Liu Linglong agreed and turned around and sat next to Yin Fangting.
Yin Fangting followed him and sat down. After Yin Zhiping and others, they sat down.
After sitting down, Yin Fangting immediately asked Liu Linglong: "By the way, Teacher Liu, how did you know my uncle? Why did you say you have seen him but don't know his name?"
She had already known the whole story, but she still deliberately pretended not to know. She wanted to listen to Liu Linglong say it in person.
Seeing her asking this, Liu Linglong naturally did not doubt that she had already known it. After looking at Yin Zhiping, she told the story of that night from her perspective from her perspective.
During the story, the waiter came over to ask if he ordered the food. Yin Fangting also asked to wait for a while, but she didn't want to interrupt Liu Linglong's story. She just asked the waiter to bring another coffee cup and pour a cup of coffee for Liu Linglong.
"Wow, heroes save beauty!" After Liu Linglong finished telling, Yin Fangting put her hands together on her chest and sighed, and then said attentively to Yin Zhiping: "Uncle, I admire you so much!"
While Liu Linglong was not paying attention, Yin Zhiping couldn't help rolling his eyes at this little niece who was so angry.
Yin Fangting smiled proudly, just pretending that she didn't see it.
"I have almost wanted to search for you in order to find you in the past few days. I didn't expect you to be Tingting's uncle, it's such a coincidence!"
After the story was finished, Liu Linglong said to Yin Zhiping excitedly. However, she did not tell the joke about the "promise" that Yin Zhiping played with her after saving her that night. That would make her feel shy. And in front of Yin Zhiping, she felt even more shy.
"It's really a coincidence. I didn't expect that Teacher Liu, you are actually the English teacher in Tingting's class." Yin Zhiping smiled calmly and politely when he heard this.
Yin Fangting took over the conversation and said, "Now Teacher Liu is still the acting head teacher of our class!"
Liu Linglong explained: "The original head teacher, Mr. Zhou, took maternity leave two weeks ago, and the other teachers in the class are very busy and have no time to act as the head teacher, so it's my turn."
Yin Zhiping said: "I think you have a good relationship with Tingting, but I'm asking you to take care of her at school."
Liu Linglong said: "Tingting is very smart and studious, and we are not too old, so we can talk in private. We are teachers and students in school, and we are good friends in private."
Yin Zhiping glanced at Yin Fangting and smiled, "She loves big and small people, and she often doesn't treat me as an elder at home."
Yin Fangting said dissatisfiedly: "Uncle, why are you talking? We are both uncles and nephews and friends. Why do you say that you disrespect your elders? Don't slander me in front of Teacher Liu."
Liu Linglong couldn't help but smile as she watched their uncle and nephew argue, feeling very warm. If she could have a smart and beautiful daughter like Yin Fangting after marriage in the future and her family environment could be as warm as now, it would be a very happy life for her.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at Yin Zhiping. Suddenly, her face felt hot and red, and she quickly lowered her head to drink coffee as a cover-up.
Yin Zhiping and Yin Fangting didn't notice her little move. After a few more words of uncle and nephew, Yin Zhiping said, "Okay, let's stop sitting and drinking coffee, order food!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Linglong quickly looked up and continued, "Mr. Yin, in order to express his gratitude to you, I will invite you to this meal today?"
Yin Zhiping pointed at Yin Fangting and smiled, "Today is Tingting treating her."
When Liu Linglong heard this, she immediately turned to look at Yin Fangting.
Seeing her looking at her, Yin Fangting nodded and agreed without thinking: "Okay, Teacher Liu saves me money, I'm not too happy yet!"
"Thank you Tingting!" After Liu Linglong thanked her, she reached out to greet the waiter to order food. After the waiter came over and delivered the menu to everyone, she smiled and said, "Don't be polite, order whatever you want."
Yin Zhiping was not polite, so he ordered a steak and a pasta. Yin Fangting ordered fruit salad, pizza, soup, chicken chops, and fries. Liu Linglong ordered only a steak and a muffin. After ordering, he asked Yin Zhiping again: "Do you want wine?"
"Okay, let's have a bottle of red wine!" Before Yin Zhiping could answer, Yin Fangting immediately rushed to say.
"Children are not allowed to drink." Yin Zhiping scolded her, turned to Liu Linglong and said, "No need, just coffee."
"Oh, OK!" Liu Linglong agreed and said to the waiter: "That's all."
"Okay, please wait for three!" The waiter took the menu and nodded and left.
After the waiter left, the three of them chatted for a few more times. Liu Linglong suddenly remembered something and said to Yin Zhiping: "Ah, by the way, Tingting's father's name is Yin Xiuqi. Did the names of your brothers be based on the sentence "Cultivate oneself, manage the family, govern the country and pacify the world"?"
"Ah, yes, that's right, Teacher Liu, you're so smart. My grandfather chose this sentence. I didn't expect that Teacher Liu, you guessed it just by their names!" Yin Zhiping had not answered yet. Yin Fangting took the lead.
However, Yin Zhiping had to admit that Liu Linglong was indeed very smart. Few people could think of this sentence as the source of their names based on the names of their brothers. This not only requires imagination and association, but also requires hearing this sentence and understanding of this sentence. In this world, there is very little understanding of ancient Confucian culture. Even if it is just a general understanding, there is not much. The younger the person, the less he knows. However, he did not expect that Liu Linglong was young and was also an English teacher. He had heard and understood this sentence and could remember it in his heart.
"Cultivate oneself, manage the family, govern the country and pacify the world." This sentence is actually from the Confucian classic "The Great". "Book of Rites. The Great" says: "In ancient times, those who want to clarify the virtues of the world first govern the country; those who want to govern the country first govern the family first; those who want to govern the family first cultivate their body; those who want to cultivate their body first correct their heart; those who want to correct their heart first sincere their intentions; those who want to be sincere in their intentions first achieve their knowledge, and those who want to be sincere in their knowledge are investigated. Things are structured and then they know the truth, and then they are sincere in their intentions, and then they are sincere in their intentions. The mind is upright and then they are cultivated, and then their families are united and then their countries are governed and then their countries are peaceful."
So, his father, his elder brother, and his father and son all come from this "Great Learning".
Liu Linglong heard Yin Fangting’s praise, smiled modestly, and said, “I suddenly thought of it.” Then she said to Yin Zhiping: “Your name is actually quite generous, but it’s a pity…”
Before she could finish her words, Yin Zhiping took over and smiled, "It's a pity that my surname is Yin, so it often makes people misunderstand when they are connected."
Yin Fangting said to Liu Linglong: "When my grandfather named his uncle, "The Return of the Condor Heroes" had not become popular in the mainland yet. Who knew that there would be such a Yin Zhiping?"
"Mr. Yin, have you ever thought about changing your name?" Liu Linglong asked Yin Zhiping again.
Yin Zhiping smiled bitterly and sighed, "Why didn't you think about it? But my father disagreed. He has always taught me that those who are innocent will be clear and not care about other people's opinions. He said that a gentleman is open-minded, open-minded, and does not change his name, and does not change his surname. Later, when I became an adult, I had the right to apply to change it myself, but after consulting, I found that changing my name was quite troublesome, and I got used to using this name, so I was too lazy to change it."
"Yes, Teacher Liu, you don't know how stubborn my grandfather is!" Yin Fangting also said from the side.
"Actually, I think the old man's words are correct. And when he first took a long time to think about it, he thought he had given his son a good name. If he changed it casually, he would have denied his original care. Naturally, he would inevitably think that his intention was wasted." After hearing this, Liu Linglong stood in the perspective of Yin Zhiping's father and put himself in his shoes and said such words.
After hearing this, Yin Zhiping was stunned and looked at her with a little surprised. To be honest, he had never put himself in his father's shoes and thought about this issue. When he was in school, because of this name, he would only blame his father for giving him such a name, and he shouted all day long to change it. Although he accepted it when he grew up and used it, he was too lazy to change it, but he never understood his father's idea of insisting on not changing his name for him.
It was not until now that he heard from Liu Linglong that this view was much different from what others had before. It was at this moment that he really understood his father's thoughts on this matter. It turned out that his father insisted on refusing it because of his care for him and he did not want people to erase this intention, but he used to blame him.
At this moment, he couldn't help feeling guilty for his father. As a son, he was not as clear as others. He understood his father's actions and thoughts, and he was truly a son of humanity.
"Thank you, Teacher Liu, I have never thought about it before, but I have always blamed my dad for it!" After coming to his senses, he thanked Liu Linglong sincerely.
"It's nothing, no thanks. I just imagined it from my uncle's perspective!" Liu Linglong said politely. She felt a little embarrassed for Yin Zhiping's thanks. She obviously deserved to thank him, but he thanked him in reverse.
"Teacher Liu, if you said what you said just now in front of my grandfather, he would definitely attract you as a confidant!" Yin Fangting was also surprised by Liu Linglong's unique insights and was stunned for a while, and then she came back to her senses and sighed.
After sighing, she looked at Yin Zhiping again, and gave him a wink at Liu Linglong, as if saying, "Look, I'm right, how understanding and considerate our Teacher Liu is!"
Yin Zhiping couldn't help but smile bitterly at her at this moment. He just looked at Liu Linglong in a blink of an eye, but he had to admit in his heart that this teacher Liu is really a very understanding and good girl.
