Chapter 2317 Why must we fight?
When the Master teaches poetry, it is natural to explain the meaning when teaching a poem. But for Ling'er, it is already good that she can memorize the poem completely. If she can clearly remember the meaning, she can go there again. Understanding the profound meaning, it is somewhat difficult for children.

Ling'er racked her brains and thought for a long time before she said: "Master said, this poem is very sad. The country is destroyed and the family is destroyed, but the mountains and rivers are still there. The soldiers are fighting outside and will never return. If a letter from home can be sent back, I don’t know how much manpower and horsepower it will take.”

Rong Yi shook her head: "What makes this letter from home valuable is not that it has to go through many hardships all the way back, but that it can be sent back safely from the smoke-filled border. The saying that a letter from home is worth ten thousand yuan means that the person who sent the letter is still alive, and his fate is always there. It’s valuable, how many people are wrapped in leather and died on the battlefield. The heroic souls are not allowed to return to their homeland. We Meng people pay attention to returning fallen leaves to their roots, but those soldiers stationed at the border..." At this point, Rong Yi took a long breath and slowly spit it out. , she looked at her daughter's frown, and finally couldn't say the unfinished words.

Ling'er asked a question that has been bothering people since ancient times.

"But why is there a war? If there is no war and everyone is safe, wouldn't it be better?"

Rong Yi pulled her over and asked her to look down at her clothes and the house.

"Ling'er knows that besides us, there are still some people who have suffered from the war. These people have no home, no country, and no peaceful life. If they are lucky enough to survive and survive until the day of peace, how many days will it take? On a good day, but if life is not good, a war will destroy families and people. Why fight? Because some people don’t have enough to eat, don’t have enough clothes to wear, there are no sheltered roofs, there are no bustling markets, there is only plunder, plunder We need property and land to expand our territory so that local people can have clothes to wear and food to eat.”

Ling'er opened her mouth in surprise, Rong Yi pointed at her clothes and said: "Just like us, like the clothes Ling'er is wearing, if the Meng country hadn't unified several neighboring countries, how could it be like this? A vast land? How can millions of Chinese people live and work in peace and contentment?"

"In the early days, the entire continent was divided into several parts, and there were outstanding talents in each place to lead. Tomorrow, you must know that throughout the continent, there are dry places, wet places, and even more invisible places. In places with sunshine, there are places where you can’t drink water, and there are places where you can’t see the harvest after planting seeds. Without water, no light, and no seeds, how can people survive? So, in the earliest times, they We can only pick up the weapons around us and attack those places where we can see hope, hoping to occupy other people's land and let our own people live a good life."

"But...can't we discuss it? We have discussed it. If you don't have water, you can come to my house to get it. If I don't have rice, I can come to your house to borrow it. So what?"

Looking at the child's young face, Rong Yi's eyes flashed slightly, and she said: "If the water in my house is just enough for the whole family, and there is no extra to borrow, when you come to me to borrow it, I can't borrow it. One day, I have no rice at home, so I came to borrow it from you, but your rice is only enough for you alone, will you lend it to me?"

Ling'er was silent and lowered her head, as if she was sad.

The child is simple and has no dirty things in her eyes. The fact that she was able to ask these questions today and find these things that cannot be understood shows that her world is as clean as white paper and she believes that there can be peace between people.

However, Ling'er said: "Why can't we discuss it? If everyone can discuss it, no one will go to war, father will not have to go to the battlefield, and mother will not worry. Who wouldn't cry secretly alone? Are you willing to discuss it? Who is not willing to take a step back? When my sister came back, I gave the jade unicorn my father gave me to my sister. I only had one, but I still gave it to my sister, because my sister didn’t have it, and it hurts to be a sister. It’s right to love her.”

At this point, she raised her head and looked at her mother and said, "My mother taught Ling'er to help the weak. When you meet someone who is weaker than yourself, you should help if you can. If someone else is in trouble, you won't be hurt." Trapped deep in a swamp, calling for help with no help.”

So, why can’t this happen between countries?The strong cannot help the weak, and even invade their country?

Rong Yi's eyes flickered, looking at the child's puzzled gaze, and said: "You will know this when you grow up. Where there are people, there will be smoke. There is no absolute balance in this world. If one day, everyone can be strong If mutual checks and balances are achieved and people are kind, there may not be wars. However, the general trend of the world is that if we divide for a long time, we will unite, and if we unite for a long time, we will unite. This division and unity will inevitably lead to war, but these are beyond our control. We can only You can do your best." "Your father is also doing his best. Sometimes, war is not for occupation, but for self-protection. There are too many wolf cubs around the sleeping tiger, and it cannot sleep peacefully. Only one by one Only by getting rid of these wolf boys can we rest easy, this is the human heart."

Ling'er seemed to understand, but it was still too complicated for her.

She only said: "Then when Ling'er grows up, he will write articles to bring peace to the world and let everyone sit back and relax. As long as Ling'er writes well and everyone recognizes this truth, things will be fine."

Rong Yi couldn't answer, but in the child's expectant eyes, she didn't deny it. She just said: "If one day, my Ling'er becomes famous all over the world, and everyone can convince everyone of what you wrote, and it will have a certain impact. It’s impossible to say for sure, Mom is looking forward to that day.”

A lot of big stuff was said today. Although Ling'er couldn't fully understand it, after hearing her mother's affirmation, she became very interested in learning articles from then on. She was not limited to just learning female training, she also wanted to Read the Four Books and Five Classics, read books read by men, and write articles written by men.

Open-mindedness is a good thing for women in this era. After all, the new dynasty has greatly supported women's teaching. It can be said that women under the Meng Kingdom are freer and more open.

They don't know that some women outside the Meng Kingdom cannot go out alone. Even if they want to go out of the house, they must cover themselves tightly from head to toe, and they cannot talk to outsiders at will. If they say more than a few words, their chastity will be compromised.

In the early years, when Rong Yi was not even born and Rong Yi's mother was still very young, the country's customs were strict and there were many people soaking in pig cages. In those pig cages, there were so many grievances that had nowhere to complain and no one to complain. unknown.

Therefore, it is really excellent now. It is not a sin to allow women to speak and show their faces.

When Ling'er could say these words without restraint, it was also the biggest change of this generation.

Women are involved in foreign affairs. There is no way that one day women will be involved in national affairs.
