Wanfu, the Reborn Empress

Chapter 507 A Slight Dispute
The poetry reciting meeting finally got the greatest relief because of Sun Hanshuang's appearance, and the originally stagnant and awkward air became warm again.

Gu Yanxi finally had time to take a good look at the exquisite small courtyard used to hold the poetry reciting meeting.

The Sun Mansion is a scholarly family, and both the male and female masters in the mansion are talented people, so the renovation and decoration of the mansion are also elegant.

Gu Yanxi took Lu Yingying and Tang Xin to walk in the lush courtyard, and saw the servants waiting around in an orderly manner. Whether it was the potted plants or the quiet scenery in the courtyard, it was like a small independent scenery everywhere, allowing people to stop at will. No matter where you stay, you have the idea of ​​calming down and enjoying it.

And looking at these very familiar scenery and decorations, Gu Yanxi knew without guessing that these were Sun Yueshan's style; when she lived in the Qingping Hou Mansion in her previous life, she and Sun Yueshan had been together for more than a year, so naturally she knew her usual style the most what is it.

Lu Yingying followed Gu Yanxi, and seeing that she seemed to be looking at the Weirui Courtyard with great interest, she followed suit and said, "Although this Sun's Mansion is not as rich as Gu's Mansion, it is also not as rich as my Lu Mansion's." It occupies a large area, but it is very interesting to appreciate it carefully. Now I finally understand why my mother always wants to train me to be a well-spoken and well-informed lady. As the saying goes, everything is inferior but reading is high. A person with a bit of literary style can even decorate the yard where he lives so carefully, which is really admirable."

Hearing Lu Yingying's emotion, Gu Yanxi did not deny her praise for the Sun Mansion in her tone: "The Sun Mansion is a scholarly family. Although the mansion is not big, after several generations of management, the scenery in the mansion is naturally not bad. It's just that , but one sentence you said is inappropriate."

Lu Yingying came curiously: "Oh? Which sentence is wrong? Xin'er, do you know?"

Tang Xin, who was suddenly named, heard Lu Yingying's question, first looked at Gu Yanxi, then shook her head truthfully and said, "I don't know what you said is wrong, on the contrary, I quite agree with what you said Yes. I didn't like reading since I was a child, but because of my status as a prostitute and the status of the Tang family in Beijing, even if I don't like it, I have to be patient and read some books. In my mother's words, just learn a little bit , at least in the future, even if she doesn't become a talented girl, she can show a little bit of appearance in front of the big guys, so that she won't make jokes when she grows up."

Hearing Tang Xin's answer, both Gu Yanxi and Lu Yingying couldn't help laughing; they knew Tang Xin's character very well, so they naturally knew that what she said was all the truth.

After laughing softly for a few times, Gu Yanxi said to Lu Yingying and Tang Xin: "What I said wrong was the sentence 'everything is inferior but reading is high'. Everyone in the world thinks that only scholars are the best people, However, one of the most important things is overlooked, that is, what is the purpose of our reading?!"

Gu Yanxi turned his head to look at Lu Yingying and Tang Xin, and said: "Some people are full of wealth and wealth, and they use it to serve the court and the welfare of the people all over the world. Some people are talented but like to be a wild crane, or teach and educate people; People, they rely on their talents and pride, use all their knowledge on crooked ways, and commit shameful behaviors that go against the laws of nature and disregard human lives. May I ask, will such people be the upper-class people in people's mouth? Will it be what others say Is it a role model of 'everything is inferior but reading is high'?"

Lu Yingying thought about Gu Yanxi's words, and said, "Such people are naturally despised villains, how can they be regarded as real scholars?"

Tang Xin also echoed, "That's right, a person who uses all his talent and knowledge instead of using it on the right path, instead of doing things that harm nature and reason, is probably not even a human being."

Gu Yanxi agreed with Tang Xin's words, smiled and patted her head, and said, "That's right, it's right for people who are not even human beings to be engraved with the words "scholar" on their bodies." The biggest insult of books. Therefore, in my opinion, no matter what you do at this time in life, there is no distinction between high and low. Generals on the battlefield fight bloody battles to defend their families and countries, and deserve respect; traders who run shops buy and sell goods to support their families Lives are also worthy of respect; even the butcher who kills pigs and sheep is worthy of respect as long as he has kind thoughts and is diligent. Therefore, we cannot judge a person one-sidedly based on a person's occupation or talent If we really want to see through a person, what we need to do is to keep our eyes open and look at him with our hearts, so that we can make the most correct judgment.”

After hearing Gu Yanxi's words, Tang Xin was the most touched.

She originally had a calm smile on her face, but at this moment she seemed to be thinking of some unpleasant memories, her voice also lowered, and said: "Jiaojiao is right, I used to be blind, That's why I treated the thief as a sister, and was almost framed by the gangster, ruining my life. I thought that after going through all this, I had more or less grown up, but I didn't expect that after hearing Jiaojiao's words today , I realized that I was still standing still, and I was still repeating my last mistake."

Gu Yanxi said this purely for the purpose of referring to Sun Yueshan, but he did not expect to bring up Tang Xin's sad past. Seeing her suddenly white face, he quickly reached out to support her, with an apologetic tone in his tone: "Xin Son, I'm sorry, I didn't realize that saying this would remind you of those unpleasant memories."

Tang Xin raised her head to look at Gu Yanxi, shook her head, and forced a smile on her face: "No Jiaojiao, it's not your fault; strictly speaking, this is all my fault, and I should bear it. Jiaojiao, in fact, I should be thanking you all the time. And the fourth girl, you are all my benefactors. If you didn't help me at the Snow Sea Feast that day, I wouldn't be able to turn the crisis into safety. For me, The previous experiences were terrible and painful, but it was precisely because of those experiences that I saw some people clearly, and I was fortunate enough to make friends with you; this is a blessing in disguise."

Now Lu Yingying almost regards Tang Xin as her little sister because of Gu Yanxi's relationship. After hearing what she said, she immediately felt touched in her heart, grabbed Tang Xin's hand, and said, "Since the past has become The past, then you should not be tied down by the past anymore; Xin'er, it is impossible for people to live in the past all their lives, what we have to do is to look forward. Besides, the thief who killed you has already paid the price. Even if you are alive, life is worse than death. Why do you have to be depressed because of these two villains who are living in atonement? If the Li family brothers and sisters are always remembered by you, you can easily remember them when you think of them. If it affects your emotions, then Jiaojiao and I's saving you was really not worth it."
