Li Dan feels that it is still necessary to make it clear to children: raising ornamental fish and economical food fish are two completely different behaviors, and they cannot be solved by simple "kindness".
"Eat the canal? I haven't thought about it. I thought I could provide him with a better environment. It seems that Brother Dan's solution is better!"
"Little Tail" also felt that her solution was still not ideal. At least the fish should be happier with her help, right? However, this may make their lives even more unhappy.
"you are not a fish, how to know the joy of fish?"
Xiang Zhong finally couldn't help but interrupt.
Yes, he is waiting, just waiting for someone among them to say the famous answer: "If you are not me, how do you know that I don't know the joy of fish?".
"Simple! The same applies to others and to fish. If we are happy and joyful, we will be more active and lively. Otherwise, we will be silent and inactive. The same is true for watching fish. There are few fish in the fisherman's pond. There is a state of leisurely swimming, and when looking at fish in rivers and lakes, although the environment is uncertain, hunger and fullness are uncertain, however, except for life and death, it is rare to see fish that are not at ease and carefree. Their shape, wings, tail, shape and color They are all in a state of agility, from this we can see that the fish in the rivers and lakes are gifts from heaven. We are passionate and work hard to seize their freedom and freedom. It is called love, but it is actually harmful."
Li Er put his hands behind his back and talked eloquently, talking about his view of freedom as "a fish in the rivers and lakes", but did not give the answer that Xiang Zhong thought he would give.
"As expected! It's better for us not to do anything unnecessary! Brother Yu, as long as the fish cubs are happy enough, that's all! I won't look for food for them anymore! Let alone try to keep them trapped."
"Little Tail" was convinced by Li Er, and she was completely relieved, and the smile returned to her face.
Facing a pool of blue waves, the six children, high and low, big and small, had endless things to say, just like the wind on the lake, gently blowing the water surface in waves, and the ripples rippled layer by layer. stop.
Happy times are like the bright sunshine after autumn. The sky looks very bright, but the heat passes quickly.
The children who had had enough fun, it was time to say goodbye. Everyone in the old manor was still polite and considerate. Not only did they arrange gifts for each guest, they also specially invited a few carriages to accompany them and took them all the way to the pavilion outside the city before saying goodbye and returning.
"Brother Xiang, if you have the chance to pass by Zhou next time, you must come to my storage room to see me! Guo Du Shu Yuan has such a mountain of classics that you will never want to return!"
Sitting on the rickety car, the children couldn't hide their excitement and speculated about the special gifts for themselves, but Xiang Zhong only remembered Li Dan's invitation to go to the largest library in "contemporary" for an eye-opening experience. I thought to myself: From now on, we must create opportunities!
In the suburbs at the turn of autumn and winter, the scenery is not something you usually see. Through the car window, Xiang Zhong looked out, the shades gradually changed in color, and in conjunction with the up and down bumps of the car, the color blocks were pulled out one by one with a "trance" texture, which gave the techniques of Monet's famous paintings a natural look. "Live" sketch version.
…
One year later, the other prospered, the years rolled over like this, and before we knew it, twelve years had passed.
Outside the car window, there are still "autumn colors", and inside the car window, Xiang Zhong, a 15-year-old boy who has become an adult, has finally grown up enough to sit upright and see the yellow leaves of the woods on the horizon.
I received a letter from Li Dan, saying that he had been promoted from a Tibetan official to a historian. I heard that Xiang Zhong and his brother Xiang Zheng had gradually achieved success in studying with six masters in the past few years, and their knowledge had also improved. Jingjin, specially invites him to come and talk.
"I never expected that it would take so long to create this opportunity to meet me again!"
Xiang Zhong was invited to go alone this time.
Over the years, the two Mrs. Xiang have been competing with each other overtly and covertly, and they have given birth to two younger brothers, Xiang Yi and Xiang Ning, for Dr. Xiang. As three biological brothers, the eldest, Xiang Zheng, has to take more care of him. The two young brothers did not dare to go out easily due to their responsibilities; but Xiang Zhong was different. Mrs. Xiang did not want to see him in the first place. Although he was far better than Xiang Zheng Yichou in all aspects of his studies, he still lived a humiliated life in front of Mrs. Xiang. . When she heard that he was going to leave Xiang's mansion for a while, Mrs. Xiang wanted to beat the gongs and drums and give him more money. Anyway, she wanted to see him off quickly, so she happily agreed to Xiang Zhong's request to go out.
At the "Crowning Ceremony" that had just been held for Xiang Zhong, the thing that bothered Mrs. Xiang the most was the piece of jade pendant that Doctor Xiang had given to him long ago. It was three times heavier than the one during Xiang Zhong's crowning ceremony. Two, the quality of the mutton-fat jade is even better, which is much more valuable than Xiang Zheng's sapphire.
Although the brothers were still in harmony with each other, they couldn't help but Mrs. Xiang was behind her and secretly provoked her. After she talked too many times, Xiang Zheng also began to fall in love with his piece of sapphire, so he simply stopped wearing it and kept it. There is no need to meet and talk to the madam once, which would make it embarrassing for brothers who originally had no grudges.
"Remember, you have to bring me a few more good articles so that I can have a glimpse of my style."
When sending Xiang Zhong off, Xiang Zheng patted his younger brother's shoulder and explained seriously that after all, Li Er was now a famous "I" all over the world, but he had no chance to be invited and couldn't get away.
"Don't worry, I will definitely remember!"
Xiang Zhong is a careful person, and he has also discovered that Xiang Zheng always forgets to wear the sapphire pendant he wears around his waist recently, presumably to reduce some troubles that may cause the two brothers to have a lifelong feud.
Dr. Xiang, who is also afraid of trouble, has never taken the young lady Xiang back to live in the Xiang Mansion in order to balance the relationship between the two ladies. Instead, as before, he mainly focuses on the principal wife here and goes there to stay for a while when he has time. On the contrary, it is "out of sight, out of mind", and there are fewer unnecessary conflicts.
Although the youngest child Xiang Ning was also born to Mrs. Xiang, in order for him to receive the same good education as his brothers, like Xiang Zhong, he was also sent to the Xiang Mansion and handed over to his wife to take care of them. The juniors also studied under six masters together. Although the adults kept a distance in their hearts, the children did not have so many random thoughts. They spent all day eating, clothing, fighting and going to school together. Sometimes they were crazy, sometimes they were fighting, and sometimes they were so good. It really made Mrs. Xiang not dare to be too much. After all, not letting Mrs. Xiang come back to live in the Xiang Mansion is the biggest sacrifice she can make.
It's still the same route, it's still the same car, but inside the car window, the caress of the little lady Xiang, the chirping of "little tail", and the little adult look of Ji Yu are gone. Speaking of which, the Ji family brothers and sisters haven’t seen each other for a long time! I don’t know how they are doing now, what they look like...
