Great Sui Storyteller

Chapter 523 522. Who Can Judge?no one to judge

"Hearing the meaning of the Taoist priest, it seems that there was some prejudice against the family before?"

Cui Wanrong didn't know what Li Zhen was thinking, but felt that the other party's words seemed to reveal his views on the aristocratic family.

She had to ask deeply.

"No."

Li Zhen smiled and shook his head:
"The Cui family has been passed down since the Shang and Zhou dynasties, and it is after Jiang Taigong. How dare a poor man lie."

"...Then what is Taoist Priest's opinion of us people?"

Cui Wanrong had no choice but to ask clearly because it was a matter of herself.

In fact, the last thing she wanted was to say something insincere from the other party's mouth.Because, in this world, everyone is afraid of the aristocratic family, they control the top resources of this land, whether it is the path of the humble scholar to the imperial examination, or the great fortune of the businessman, all the industries have their shadows .

It's not normal not to be hated.

But this is the most mediocre place in the world. There are always people who think that the family is so powerful that it should be cut down or should not exist. The Cui family's inheritance may indeed be longer, but some ancestors of other aristocratic families also had self-made people.

Why can't these people inherit the rewards they have received through their efforts from generation to generation?

how?How can a humble family who has only started to make a fortune in this generation hope to surpass the efforts of the generations of the aristocratic family?

But these principles do not make sense to some people.

There is no need to talk about it.

In this world, the law of the jungle preys on the strong.

Talking is useless.

So Cui Wanrong usually doesn't bother to explain, or the family members are too lazy to socialize with ordinary people outside the circle, because it is unnecessary.

Everyone stands at different heights, sees things from different angles, and has no common language, so how can we call them bosom friends?
But the man in front of her is the one she likes, and she must correct the bias in his heart.

Let him understand that the power of the Cui family is the result of generations of Cui family inheriting, carrying forward and expanding their ancestral business.To enjoy the benefits of the Cui family, one must contribute to the inheritance and development of the family.This is an obligation that every Cui family, those who cling to the Cui family, and the vassals of the Cui family need to fulfill.

I have given you asylum, helped you to make great achievements in business, and helped you to rise to the top in your official career.

In return, you must actively or passively give the Cui family what they need.

Buy and sell fairly.

She had to let this man understand this truth.

Because this is the cruel truth of this world.

She doesn't mind being a Taoist partner with him, and she also allows him to have compassionate ambitions in his heart. As long as he wants to, then she will work hard to become the strongest supporter behind him.

But he was not allowed not to see the truth of this world.

His compassion, after knowing the cruel survival rules of this world, will become more radiant and clearer.

Otherwise, this compassion is just a big dream.

As the sons and daughters of the Cui family, someone in the family would teach them the principles of controlling wives and training husbands from a very young age.

But it's not some selfish way to subsidize the Cui family, nor is it some kind of greedy moment of joy in the house.

It is a kind of esoteric knowledge to let the boys and girls in the family know what is a small family, what is a big family, how to manage a small family, and how to be a big family.

The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, the theory of son-in-law, the way of being a husband and wife, etc.

The members of the Cui family must learn, because this is also the guarantee for their future survival.

So, even if she hasn't expressed her feelings yet, but... Xufu, from this moment on, it's time to start, right?
After Li Zhen heard her question, she didn't think too much, but just gave her own point of view:
"Actually, the family is just for the continuation."

"!"

A hint of surprise rose in Cui Wanrong's eyes immediately.

But before he could speak, he heard him say again:

"Just being selfish."

"..."

Facing the silent woman, perhaps it was the first time someone asked this question, or maybe it was because the woman in front of her was a real family member.

The Taoist, who hadn't been motivated to express his desire for a long time, opened the chatterbox:

"Of course, I'm not saying that you are bad, and even, I can understand everything you did when the dynasties changed. And some history books at first glance are things done by traitors, such as the famous Wang Yunsong These things about Diao Chan... Aren't many people still saying that Wang Yun and other scholar-bureaucrats are selfish?
But in fact, it is standing and talking without back pain.If it was substituted into that dynasty back then, what these aristocratic families headed by Wang Yun were doing was just to preserve their family status in the troubled times.From the perspective of the self, this kind of thing is not wrong, but the public in the world is called the Grand Duke, and under the Grand Duke, the behavior of the family is more or less selfish.But to say that you are wrong... is not entirely true.

After all, if the efforts of generations of people fall into their own hands, then when the time comes, what face will they have to meet their ancestors?Right... I don't think the family is good, but I don't think the family is bad either.You are competing for profit with the people, but also benefiting the people, which is a very contradictory existence.

Throughout history, in fact, since the Eastern Han Dynasty, the structure of the aristocratic family and the royal power have formed each other.Whoever can get your support will be able to aspire to the top of the world.And in the same way, what you need is nothing more than two points, one is enough land, and the other is that the court has enough right to speak.As for the others, they are actually just extensions of these two things.And when a dynasty is prosperous, there are your shadows.In times of recession, it is also with you.

It can be said that success is also a family, and failure is also a family..."

Speaking of this, Li Zhen suddenly shook his head and sighed:
"That's a really hard question to answer. Because it's so big, you understand?

If I say the family is not good, then you are indeed not good.You occupy the best resources in the world, you have the right to determine the rise and fall of a family or even a dynasty, and you also have the most fertile land and human resources in the world... From any angle, your existence is actually important to ordinary people. Words are a constraint.

But what?Does no one understand?Does no one hate you?There must be.

Even, I can guarantee that the rulers of these hundreds of years must have had your ideas.But when they wanted to implement it, they discovered... It turns out that the imperial power and the aristocratic family have always been an inseparable whole.If you move you, it will force you, who have too much experience in facing the constraints of imperial power, to start to form a group.I think this is also the reason why the five surnames and seven families are connected with each other?
And in the same way, it is precisely because you are a whole, so moving you is tantamount to overturning the country under your feet.Therefore, in this kind of balance, your status can remain as stable as a mountain for hundreds of years.But in the same way, when a dynasty is about to decay, you can also withdraw in time and stand on the opposite side of the imperial power.

So, let me say, you are the top group of people in this world.That's why the phrase "a century-old dynasty and a thousand-year family" came about, right?And looking at the overall situation, if you judge whether you are good or bad in a general direction, I think...except for yourself, no one is qualified to give this definition.

Anyone who evaluates you can only say whether you are good or bad from a small point of view.

But on a larger scale, when people evaluate... I don't know what other people think, but at least for me, I can't fully define the aristocratic family.Your... roots are too deep.Deeply rooted in this land, it has witnessed countless ups and downs.And in each period of history, you are playing different roles from your own perspective.So, there are good and bad histories.At least for me, shopkeeper Cui, forgive me, I can't give a fair and objective evaluation. "

After a long speech, I didn't see the surprise and thoughtfulness in the woman's eyes, as well as the appreciation that was almost turned into substance.

Riding on the horse, looking ahead to the ferry where a rainbow appeared under the sun, and under the rainbow, the Taoist seemed very satisfied with his words, and nodded to prove his thoughts:

"Well, that's it."

And did Cui Wanrong understand?

She understood.

Although she disapproved of some things, her heart was the same as Ming Jing's. Her disapproval was only because she was a member of the "family" he called.

From the perspective of my own family, I must refute the denial.

As for the others, she really thought that what the other party said was not wrong at all.

He has great talent!
Has a great talent that surpasses ninety-nine percent of the mediocre people in this world!
Stand high enough to see far enough.

That's why he has his own unique insight into the aristocratic family, or this world!
Growing up so big, she never considered that besides the elders in the family, she could hear this kind of words from an outsider... except for a few remarks, the rest is exactly the same as her family's perspective on this world!
Such a clear head!
Such...extremely insightful!
Not to mention the beautiful qualities in the other party's heart that conform to all the evaluations of "heroes" by their own family!

Is there something wrong with the family?
Once, she asked the elders in the clan.

The answer I got was "everything is just for the sake of being worthy of the ancestors".

Cui Wanrong doesn't believe in Buddhism, she doesn't believe in it.

But at this moment, in my heart, I sincerely praised the gods, Buddhas and immortals who have never been in awe.

She was fortunate that her elder brother saved her back then.

Fortunately, her persistence is not wrong!
Finally, let her meet the person she likes who can satisfy all the desires in her heart.

How... lucky.

As a result, the woman's face turned an extremely shy red.

In the warm sunshine, the waves of eyes flowing in her eyebrows are like a pool of spring water, full of affection.

Although the Taoist didn't see it.

but……

It doesn't matter.

because……

She will let him understand.

And just when she opened her mouth to speak, suddenly, a peaceful charm shattered the affection in the world of the two of them.

Suddenly, and calmly, it spread from under the rainbow on the other side of the ferry.

"Namo Amitabha."

I don't know if it was Li Zhen and Cui Wanrong, but the workers who were busy at the ferry also heard this Buddha's chant:
"Benefactors, the poor monk is the supervisor of the Bodhi Meditation Academy. His Dharma name is Kongji. He is here to pay a visit to the governor of Guxian County. I wonder if you can make a convenience and pass it on for him?"

Feelings are like a dream bubble, turning into silence.

I just felt that my mind was clearer than ever before, and all the mortal desires disappeared, leaving only the clear and clear Cui Wanrong at the Lingtai. She subconsciously looked towards the direction of the ferry, and her expression became solemn unconsciously.

But at this moment, suddenly, a chuckle broke her state of wanting nothing, and brought back the exhausted emotions.

"Ha~"

There was a golden light in the eyes of the Taoist riding on the horse. Looking at the peaceful Buddha light that gradually merged with the rainbow in the distance, he chuckled and said:
"Bald donkey."
