Excellent little farmer

I smiled, took out the cigarette, put it in my mouth, lit it, took a deep breath, and said softly: "Where is she? Why haven't you seen her?"

Zheng Yujia looked at the time and said with a smile: "I went out in the morning to have a party with my classmates. I may not come back until later. The old man is in a good mood recently and has not been strict with her. He is more casual than before. The second lady has a natural temperament. She loves to play and is very lively.”

I nodded with a smile and said in a low voice: "Sister Zheng, I was here just now. Mr. Bai asked me three questions, and I think my answers were pretty good."

Zheng Yujia had a smile on her face, and when she saw the expression on my face, she knew that he was performing well, so she asked curiously: "What's the problem?"

I told the truth, and said proudly: "Fortunately, I have read Cai Gen Tan, and I can do everything."

Zheng Yujia smiled and said calmly: "The old man likes traditional culture very much. He often says that we should take Buddha as our heart, Tao as our bones, and Confucianism as our appearance. We should look at the world magnanimously and look for the roots and strength in traditional culture. He The questions I asked you were also asked to us.”

After listening to this, I was secretly surprised. I felt that Zheng Yujia's words were extraordinary and he was more knowledgeable than before. However, he said quietly: "It's not difficult to have a Buddha's heart. He should have the heart of a Bodhisattva, talk about compassion, and talk about compassion for heaven and mankind. What does it mean that Tao is bone?”

Zheng Yujia smiled slightly, walked to the window, picked up the watering can, watered the unnamed yellow flowers in front of the window, and said with a smile: "Tao is the bone. This Tao actually talks about laws, rules, the way of nature, the way of heaven and earth." , the way to be a human being is to be square on the inside and round on the outside, with both hardness and softness.”

I high-fived and praised, secretly feeling that Zheng Yujia’s explanation was brilliant, and continued to ask: “What about Confucianism?”

Zheng Yujia put down the watering can, pursed her lips and smiled and said: "This Confucianism is superficial, but it actually talks about the method of joining the world. It advocates moral governance, etiquette and human governance, emphasizing moral influence. It is also about cultivating oneself, managing one's family, governing the country, and bringing peace to the world. This is the highest goal for scholars throughout the ages. Faith, and high ideals.”

I chuckled and nodded: "That's true, but times have changed, and these things have become distant."

Zheng Yujia shook his head with a smile and said softly: "It's not far away. The foundation of more than two thousand years is there. Sooner or later there will be a process of return. Of course, it will not be a simple return, but a process of eliminating the bad and retaining the good." , the process of absorption, integration, and inclusiveness. In fact, throughout history, our culture has always survived and reproduced in this way.”

I frowned and smoked for a while, then said: "What you said is good, you have to go back to the origin. If you only absorb foreign culture but forget the soil where the foreign culture lives, it will be easy to cause problems. For example, many foreigners are Those who believe in God, with that social foundation, can derive many Tao and rules. However, after the reform and opening up, the Chinese people finally believed in nothing but money, and there was a crisis of faith. Once this crisis spreads, it will be very troublesome. It’s a big hole and it should be plugged in time. It’s better to plug it sooner rather than later.”

Zheng Yujia nodded, chatted with me for a while, and then said: "You are tired from the journey, so take a rest first. I will come back later."

I smiled slightly, nodded and said hello, and when I walked her to the door, I asked again: "Where is brother Yimin?"

Zheng Yujia smiled and said softly: "You are with the eldest lady. Why, do you have something to do with him?"

I nodded, made a few gestures, and said with a smile, "I want to learn some kung fu from him."

Zheng Yujia pursed her lips and smiled, shook her head and said, "Then wait a little longer. In fact, you can also ask Uncle He for advice."

I chuckled, waved my hands and said, "Let's forget it. If he uses that cane, won't I be in trouble?"

"How could that be? Uncle He is a very good person!" Zheng Yujia pursed her lips and smiled, turned around, walked to the yard, and drove away.

I was alone under the eaves, teasing the starlings for a while, then pulled up a chair, sat at the door, and flipped through a romance novel. I had just read about ten pages when I heard a burst of laughter like silver bells coming from the door. Immediately, a girl in a bright yellow dress appeared in the field of vision, but that person was the second young lady of the Bai family, Bai Mengni's sister Bai Xue. She was holding her mobile phone at the moment, as if she was talking to someone on the phone.

I put down the book and looked at each other with a smile. Compared with the last time we met, Bai Xue was even more beautiful. She had a slim neck and beautiful skin. She was not wearing any makeup, but her features were picturesque, slim and demure. Dignified, vaguely, even more elegant than Meng Ni.

After I saw it, I was filled with admiration in my heart. I secretly compared the two sisters and felt that Meng Ni was more cool and strong, while Bai Xue in front of me looked much weaker, with the charming and charming attitude of the girl next door. , and more likable.

After Bai Xue finished the call, I took a few steps forward and chatted up with a smile: "Ms. Bai Xue, you are back!"

Bai Xue stopped and looked at me in surprise. After a while, she remembered it and smiled a little sheepishly: "Ah, it's you. I remember that you are my sister's friend, but... I just forgot. your name!"

I smiled and said softly: "Miss Bai Xue, I am Ye Qingquan."

Bai Xue smiled sweetly, with a light smile in her eyes, and said in a voice as authentic as an oriole leaving the valley: "Hello, brother Qingquan, my sister is abroad and won't be back until a few days later!"

I nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, I heard from Sister Zheng, so I will stay for a few days to meet her."

Bai Xue leaned against the door, playing with her phone, and said with a chuckle: "That's good. Have you contacted Sister Shao? Remember you two know each other."

I smiled slightly, shook my head and said, "Not yet. I plan to contact her again tomorrow."

Bai Xue nodded and said with a half-smile, "That's great. We happened to have discussed it with her. We'll go out for an outing tomorrow. Let's go together!"

I was stunned for a moment and asked curiously: "Where should we go for an outing?"

Bai Xue smiled sweetly and said softly: "Go to the Jingxi grassland, where you can ride horses, hunt, and row boats!"

I smiled, nodded and said, "That's great. If you don't mind disturbing me, I'll go with you."

Bai Xue smiled brightly, showing her white and neat teeth, and said with a chuckle: "Don't bother me, it's very convenient. Apart from a few classmates, there are sister Shao and her boyfriend. If sister Zheng is not busy, let her come too." Go, let’s set up a tent there at night and have a bonfire party.”

I nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, Miss Bai Xue, this is a great idea!"

Bai Xue chuckled, stretched out her slender jade finger, pointed to the main room, and said with a smile: "Okay, you can rest, I'm going to see grandpa."

"Ok."

I nodded, watched her leave, hurried back to the room, picked up my phone, and called Shao Yanran first. The eldest daughter of the Shao family also had a hot temper. If she knew that she was coming to Beijing but didn't say hello to her, I guess a lot of complaining is inevitable.

The phone beeped several times and was quickly connected. A burst of unbridled laughter sounded in his ears. Shao Yanran seemed to be arguing with the person next to him. After a long while, he lazily said: "Ye Qingquan, you are such a busy man. Why are you free today and I thought of contacting Sister Shao!"

I smiled and said softly: "Sister Shao, I am in the capital on business and would like to take time to see you."

Shao Yanran was very happy after hearing this, and said with a smile: "Okay, you...are you living at Meng Ni's house?"

I smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Yes, Mengni is not at home. It will take some time before she can come back."

Shao Yanran sighed and said coquettishly: "Yes, she has been busy with business matters. Unlike me, she has nothing to do recently. She even gave up golf. She is so bored every day that she feels really nervous. I don’t know what to do, you came at the right time, please spend more time with me.”

I chuckled, shook my head and said, "Sister Shao, let's avoid it. I just met Bai Xue and I heard that you are a famous girl who has a husband!"

Hearing this, Shao Yanran smiled even more cheerfully, waving her right hand exaggeratedly, nodding her head repeatedly and saying, "I've been having sex for less than a month. I'm a reporter from a newspaper. He's quite honest and easy to bully."

I smiled and said quickly: "Sister Shao, congratulations! After waiting for so many years, your right man has finally appeared."

Shao Yanran suddenly sighed and said a little discouraged: "That's not necessarily the case. We have only known each other for a short time, so we may not be able to make it happen. We just agreed with Bai Xue that we will go to the Jingxi Grassland tomorrow to play, and I will introduce you to him then. .”

I smiled and nodded, said hello, and exchanged a few pleasantries before hanging up the phone and thinking to myself: "With Shao Yanran's fiery personality, whoever can get along with her for a long time is really a rare good-tempered person." .”

After dinner, I went to Jingtai Tea House with Zheng Yujia, drank tea and chatted together, and listened to her tell the story of Hongtai Group. I was very fascinated. It was not until about nine o'clock in the evening that the two of them separated at the door and left.

Zheng Yujia does not live in the Bai Family Courtyard. Her home is near the Second Ring Road, just behind the Hongtai headquarters building. It only takes a few minutes to walk. She said she would not go on an outing because she had temporary arrangements tomorrow.
