Shanghai is prosperous

Chapter 424

Seeing the content of the third stele, Xiao Xiaoxiao said, "The Buddha said, what you gain and lose, in your opinion, is luck, but in my opinion, it is fate."

As time goes by, everything will pass. Life is long and short.Treat the people you meet with kindness, no matter whether you can see them again or not.What you have experienced, do your best, whether you are successful or not.

The Buddha said that all encounters in this life are reunions in the previous life.I love it, it's a continuation of the previous life story.Hate, is to end the previous grudges.No encounter can be prepared, no reunion can be rehearsed.Life is a reasonable accident.

After seeing the forest of stone steles, there is a stone table and four stone benches. The two walked for a whole morning and just sat down to rest.

Xiao Xiaoxiao looked at Wang Yiyuan and asked softly, if you let me come here today, you should not only let me listen to your own story, right?Although your own story has already brought tears to my eyes.

Wang Yiyuan hesitated for a moment, and said, Xiaoxiao, today I mainly want to tell you about my past, including Ningbo, of course, a few of my former good friends are on their way here, and you can also ask them for more information. of.

He paused, thought for a while and said, I really want to tell you something else.But I want to ask you first, why you never asked me if I had any relationship with other people during our separation?

Xiao Xiaoxiao put down her backpack on the stone table, smiled and said, how do you know I didn't care about it?In fact, Zhou Wanqiu, Wang Liping and I have inquired about it, and we know something vaguely.Isn't it just an English teacher?
Wang Yiyuan said, Xiaoxiao, we have already registered and the wedding will be held soon, so we are already a family.Today, I want to tell you all about my experience with this English teacher.Would you like to hear it?

Xiao Xiaoxiao didn't say anything at first.She bowed her head and thought for a while, then nodded and said, okay.Wang Yiyuan, now we are a family.If the family doesn't say anything else, then you can say it.

So Wang Yiyuan told Xiao Xiaoxiao the whole process of dating Kang Ning without any concealment.After talking about this, I recounted the process of meeting Uncle Kang Ning suddenly during the meeting yesterday.

Wang Yiyuan explained, I think Kang Ning must be busy now, otherwise his uncle would not be sighing for no reason.

He said, Xiaoxiao, I can assure you that I have never called Xiao Chen, let alone have any contact with Kang Ning.The reason why I do this is because I am afraid of causing some misunderstandings to you.Of course, if you say that you won't contact me in the future, I won't call Xiao Chen again.

After being silent for a while, Xiao Xiaoxiao said slowly, Wang Yiyuan, I believe in you.But this time you can consider from my point of view, I still thank you very much, at least it shows that you care about me very much, and you have given me the minimum due respect.Compared with the previous practice of investing everywhere and then playing first, I actually like your current performance better.

Xiao Xiaoxiao said, I once said that when you tell me these things, you don’t mean that I must participate, or that I want to impose my ideas on you, or that I want to change your ideas and practices.I actually didn't think so.

She grabbed Wang Yiyuan's sleeve and said, there was a sentence on a stone tablet just now, which said "let go of one thought, and you will be at ease." So, what do you want to do with this matter, you just stick to your original heart Well, I support you.

The Buddha said: If you can let go of one thought, everything will be liberated and at ease.When you clasp your hands, there is nothing inside; when you open them, the world is in your hands.Many times we hold our hands tightly thinking that we have grasped what we want, but in fact, the tighter we hold, the faster we lose.

Sometimes, letting go is owning.If you get it, don’t be overly happy, because you will lose it; if you lose it, don’t be overly sorry, because it has never really belonged to you. Life is originally a game of gain and loss.

Wang Yiyuan said, I actually didn’t think about it.But Xiaoxiao, don't worry, I will discuss with you and ask for your approval for any decision I make.

Xiao Xiaoxiao looked at his watch and said, it's almost time for the lecture.Let's go and listen together?

When I arrived at the lecture hall, there were already many people sitting inside.Wang Yiyuan and Xiao Xiaoxiao sat down quietly in the last row.

There is a big blackboard on the podium, on which the theme of today's lecture is written in chalk: what kind of person will have a good life?
Not long after, two monks in cassocks walked up to the rostrum.One of the monks gave a brief introduction to today's guest speaker.Then another monk named Master Juekong began to give lectures.

What kind of person will live a happy life?Master Juekong said that the first type is those who dare to admit their mistakes.An old saying goes: The highest goodness is like water, water is good for all things without competing.

The greatest wisdom of a person is to know how to admit mistakes. People who know how to admit mistakes are like water. They do not compete for fame or gain, know their own position, and can maintain their own essence in any place.

A person with a soft figure can fill any container.The best way for people to know themselves is to have an empty glass mentality, know how to admit mistakes, let go of themselves, and properly integrate into the melting pot of the world, so that they can truly reach the realm of freedom.

When moving forward on the road of life, if we carry too much ego, it will be difficult to take a step, let alone turn around easily.People who know how to admit their mistakes will put aside face, unload their bags, and move as light as a swallow to reach the realm they want.

Master Juekong then introduced that the second type is people who are good at forbearance.He shared a little story with you.There is a kind of grass called "sharp grass" on the African prairie, which is the king of grass.In spring, other flowers, plants and trees grow wildly, but the spiky grass hardly sees any growth, and it is lower than other weeds on the grassland.

Just when people were extremely disappointed with the "sharp grass", a heavy rain hit, but it seemed to be enchanted, and it grew upward at an astonishing speed of one and a half feet every day, and it grew to 1.6 meters in less than a week. , and some are even more than two meters high.

At this time, people realized that the "sharp grass" is not not growing, but other flowers and plants are growing upwards, while it is growing downwards, constantly asking for nutrients and water, and expanding its roots to a certain extent. , it suddenly broke out and grew wildly.

Master Juekong said that some people are like spiky grasses. They look calm on the surface, but in fact they have made great efforts behind the scenes, but they are just holding back and waiting for the opportunity.
