happy rebirth

Because of a pot of noodles without love, Shao Rui and Xie Jinhua got closer.

Shao Rui has always wanted to introduce his good friend Ye Heng to Xie Ke and the two of them. After he knew that Hou Rong Sha, which has gradually become popular in the academy in the past few months, was something that Ke Qi and Xie Jinhua made together, he felt more and more in his heart. Admired, he seized the opportunity and led Ye Heng to the door.

It was a fine day with clear clouds and breezy weather.

Shao Rui led Ye Heng into the courtyard.Ye Heng felt a little nervous.If he had used his talents to open the way half a year ago, he would not have shown timidity when meeting anyone.It's just that in the past six months, his reputation in the college has been really bad, and he has been exposed to all kinds of eyes from time to time, and he has been forced to become more restrained.

If it wasn't for Shao Rui's repeated invitations, Ye Heng would not have come out to socialize.

Shao Rui understood his friend's embarrassment, so he planned to say something to ease Ye Heng's mood, pointing to a potted plant in the corner, and said: "Brother Zhengping, look how well that orchid grows! I don't know what kind it is, The leaves are so thin, but there is something subtle about the thinness, it looks quite elegant."

Ye Heng looked intently at the potted plant, and saw that it was indeed growing very well.

Before that, Shao Rui had said a lot of good things about Xie Ke and Xie Ke in front of Ye Heng. Of course, he also said a lot of good things about Ye Heng in front of Xie Ke and them.He sincerely hoped that the two could hit it off.At this time, Shao Rui couldn't help blowing for Xie Jinhua again, saying: "What kind of person raises what kind of flowers, you can know how elegant Xie is just by looking at this orchid." Now he can call Xie Jinhua brothers and sisters .

Seeing that Shao Rui spoke seriously, Ye Heng felt dumbfounded for a moment.

Ke Qi walked from the house to the door, and said with a smile: "I said why Brother Shao stood in the yard and didn't come in, but it turned out he was enjoying onions."

Shao Rui quickly pointed to Ke Qi and introduced to Ye Heng: "This is the brother I often talk about, and he is also a wonderful person. Brother Ke, this is brother Ye, he has already made a name for himself... wait, What did Ke Di just say? Appreciate green onions? What green onions?" Shao Rui felt that Ke Qi seemed to have said an unfamiliar word.

Ke Qi smiled and said nothing.Ye Heng is not nervous at all now.He was born in a farming and studying family. Although his grandfather was literate and his father was famous, his family still lives by farming.He smiled and said, "That's not a new orchid, it's a pot of green onions."

"Ye Xiucai is right, this is not the orchid planted by brother Xie, but the onion I planted for cooking noodles." Ke Qi winked at Shao Rui.

A gentleman loves orchids, but Ke Qi doesn't know much about orchids.He still remembers that when he was in college, an old professor in the school had a very precious pot of Chunlan.According to Ke Qi at that time, Chunlan looked like a pot of leeks before blooming, but quickly withered into a pile of withered grass after blooming.

Even after time-traveling, he has acquired a lot of knowledge about this aspect, for Ke Qi, orchids are still not as cute as a pot of shallots.

Ke Qi led Shao Rui and Ye Heng into the house, and Xie Jinhua got up to greet them.After some courteous exchanges, the four of them said that they don't need to use honorifics with each other anymore, it's better for everyone to be more casual.Among the four of them, Ye Heng was the only one who had written letters. He had already met Ke Xie several times. Now, seeing that they were really polite and thoughtful, and not just for Shao Rui's sake, he decided to Say what you can call him.

Talented and honest people will probably have sympathy with each other.Ye Zhengping only felt that it was too late to meet Ke Xie.

Ye Zhengping originally didn't intend to speak out about those bad things, after all, people at this time are very particular about "family ugliness should not be publicized".But he changed his mind, if he insisted on saving his sister and the niece born to her sister from the sea of ​​suffering, then the whole matter would definitely not be able to be done quietly, and sooner or later it would spread to the ears of several friends.Then he might as well tell the matter first at this time, so as not to let his friends worry about him after hearing those gossip.

Ye Zhengping's admission to Qiulin Academy was due to his talent.His family background can only be regarded as mediocre. Although his father had achieved fame, his father passed away early due to illness, and his father's illness cost the family almost everything. Ye Zhengping was brought up by his mother and sister through hard work. .His sister is seven years older than him and has always taken good care of him.Since Ye Zhengping's mother passed away three years ago, he only had his sister as his relative.

Sister Ye married into Haojia Village ten years ago.When she got married, everyone thought she had a good marriage, because her husband, Hao Fa, was a well-known benevolent man.This Hao Dashan has a very good reputation. No matter which family has any difficulties, he will help out. Many people in and out of the village have received his favor.Even the Ye family was willing to marry their daughter because of Hao Facai's help, and Ye's mother respected his character.

However, when Sister Ye really lived with Hao Facai, she realized that things were not that simple at all.

"...He is indeed a good person. He does not ask for anything in return when helping others, but he is really not a good husband, let alone a good father. My sister became pregnant in the second year of her marriage. When the autumn harvest came, he was a good person. I wanted to help other people in the same village collect the land, but my sister had to collect the Hao family’s own land alone. At that time, my sister was already six months old. The child is tired."

Ye Zhengping blamed himself for this.At that time, he and his mother were busy collecting the Ye family's land, thinking that the Hao family's land was not too much, and Hao Facai was sure to be able to collect it all by himself, so he never thought of going to the Hao family to help.But Sister Ye was afraid that her family would be worried, so she didn't send a letter to Ye's family.After her miscarriage, the Ye family received the news.If he had known that Hao Facai would ask his wife to go to the ground with such a big belly, Ye Zhengping would have stayed at Hao's house no matter what!

With regard to this incident, Ye Zhengping had a faint feeling that Hao Facai was a little unreliable.Ye's mother even said to her son-in-law cryptically that the Ye family will never stop Hao Facai from doing good deeds, but doing good deeds must be done in a proper way. How can there be any reason in the world to exhaust one's wife and children to help others?

Hao Facai repeatedly assured the Ye family that he would take good care of his wife.

He is also really good to sister Ye.

However, when Hao Facai went to do good deeds again, Sister Ye was still the one who was sacrificed.

"...my sister gave birth to a daughter six years ago. When she was pregnant, the family raised two hens that could lay eggs. It is said that there was no shortage of chickens to eat. But at that time, there happened to be a woman in Haojia Village who was also pregnant. , that family was poor, and Hao Shan sent chickens to that family every day, but my sister didn't get good food. Fortunately, I was worried that he would not be able to take good care of my sister, so I asked my mother to live in Haojia Village for a while. It turned out that the eggs laid by the hen were indeed left for my sister to eat, but he secretly sent money to the family. By the time my sister knew about it, the family’s savings had been exhausted.”

If the money is lost, it can be earned back, but what about human life?

Half a year ago, Sister Ye's daughter, Ye Zhengping's niece, Hao Xuan'er accidentally fell into the water and fell ill.The child had a high fever, but Hao Fa only gave away half of the money Ye Zhengping sent to Hao Xuan'er for medical treatment!At that time, Hao Xuan'er's illness was still not cured!Ye Zhengping felt that he couldn't bear it.No matter how good you are, there should be a limit, right?Hao Facai cut off the flesh and blood of his own wife and daughter to feed others!

Hao Xuan'er's lungs left the root of the disease.However, Hao Facai generously forgave the naughty boy who pushed Hao Xuan'er into the water.

Ye Zhengping was so angry that he scolded Hao Facai.

After that, Ye Zhengping's reputation became bad, and everyone said he was ungrateful.

There happened to be a scholar in the academy who was also from Haojia Village, and this matter spread to the academy.

"Such a person...he has achieved the reputation of a good person, so why should he marry a wife and have children to harm others?" Xie Jinhua said with a frown.

Ye Zhengping sighed deeply: "When my mother was going back to the market, she fell heavily on the road, and it was Hao Fa who carried her back. When he came to propose marriage, my mother saw that he was sincere and had a good reputation. …If I had known earlier, I should have thanked him with silver, and then it would be over."

It's not that the Ye family sister can't live a hard life.She can save food and money, can make a piece of clothing new for three years, old for three years, sewed and repaired for another three years, and let her husband do everything he can to help others.However, Hao Facai has no principles anymore.He could not see the survival needs of his wife and daughter at all.

Ye Zhengping wanted to call his elder sister to reconcile, but elder sister Ye didn't want to hurt her younger brother, and planned to continue to hold on.

Many people said that Ye Zhengping was ungrateful, and of course they had their reasons.Since Hao Facai is so keen on doing good deeds, those who are being helped must be on his side.If they didn't stand on Hao Facai's side, would these people who have been helped have to spit out all the money spent on the chickens they ate and return them to Hao Facai?How can it be!Everyone is selfish, and it didn't take much effort for them to say something "fair" to Hao Facai.

There is nothing wrong with a good person, and Ye Zhengping is the one who is wrong.

What's more, Hao Facai was kind to the Ye family back then!

Moreover, in the current mainstream values, the husband is the head of the family, and outsiders have no right to interfere in other people's family affairs.

The social status of women at this time was too low.In "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", there is a man named Liu An, who killed his wife because he had no meat to entertain Liu Bei, and lied to Liu Bei that it was wolf meat.After Liu Bei knew the truth, he was very moved and wanted to take Liu An to fight for his future.

Liu An refused, saying that he wanted to go with Liu Bei, but he had an old mother, so he couldn't travel far.

Therefore, in Luo Guanzhong's writing, Liu An who killed his wife is not only a pervert, but also a filial son who does not seek wealth and honor!The author's portrayal of Liu An is positive and positive.What is the end of the story?Cao Cao heard about this incident, admired Liu An very much, and gave Sun Qian 100 taels of gold to reward Liu An.In other words, Liu An was regarded as a righteous man, and his act of killing his wife became praiseworthy.

Although there is no "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in this time and space, similar moral opinions still exist.

A wife is just an appendage of her husband, and when the husband needs it, she should always be ready to give everything.Therefore, except for Ye Zhengping, a relative, no one else would stand up to speak for Ye's sister.In those people's eyes, Hao Facai was a good husband if he didn't prostitute, gamble, beat his wife, or sleep with a widow. If Ye Zhengping wanted to reprimand Hao Shanren for his sister, he was just ungrateful.As for the truly ungrateful person, such as Mr. Ke, he is sorry for the Song family. At most, people will only say that he is restless, and rarely criticize him on a moral level with great fanfare.

Ke Qi figured out what was going on here almost instantly.

"It's not easy to reconcile...you might as well find a doctor to dispense some medicine and secretly pour it into that good man without taking his life. You just tell him to lie in bed for a few months and then lie to him that he is terminally ill. It won't be long. In these few months, you let your sister just cry about being poor, saying that everything in the family has been treated by the good man, and that there is nothing left. Then, you let your sister push the good man to go to those places that the good man helped before. If someone borrows money, let's see how many of those who say you are ungrateful are really willing to lend money..." Ke Qi said with a smile.

A good person who "lives soon" must be very desperate, right?He is so keen on doing good deeds, but ignores the needs of his wife and daughter, which is actually a kind of selfishness.The real holy father is willing to sacrifice himself to perfect everyone, not to sacrifice his wife and daughter to perfect everyone.Therefore, Hao Dashan can only be regarded as a false holy father.If no one is willing to lend him money in despair, he will probably be able to wake up for a while!

Shao Rui was dumbfounded when he heard that, as a gentleman, he felt that Ke Qi's plan was really poisonous.

Xie Jinhua frowned and said, "Brother Ke..."

In the eyes of outsiders, Xie Jinhua is the concubine son of the Hou family after all, and must have occupied a dominant position in the relationship between husband and wife.Ye Zhengping was afraid that Xie Jinhua would get tired of Ke Qi's cruelty, so he hurriedly said, "Xie Xian, Brother Ke Xian said this because of me. I am so grateful..."

Xie Jinhua nodded, and said: "It's a good plan, but it's not easy to get the kind of medicine that Ke Di said can make people bedridden without harming the body." The reason why he frowned was because he was troubled by this matter.After all, he didn't manage any contacts in his hands, so he couldn't help at this time.

Shao Rui looked at Ke Qi with bright eyes, although this plan was poisonous, it was just right.He had always wanted to help his friend out of the predicament before, but he didn't know how to do it. If Ye Zhengping's difficulties were made public, it would make people see enough of a joke.At this moment, he suddenly realized.

Ke Qi didn't notice Shao Rui's eyes.When Xie Jinhua was speaking, Ke Qi looked at Xie Jinhua seriously.For some reason, Ke Qi could barely hear the meaning of "If you want to kill someone, I'll find a way to help you bury the body" from Xie Jinhua's words just now.

Ye Zhengping was the oldest among the four.He was very thoughtful, originally he was worried that Ke Qi would make Xie Jinhua unhappy, so he was grateful to Ke Qi and worried for him, but now seeing that Xie Jinhua didn't mean to complain about Ke Qi, Ye Zhengping breathed a sigh of relief, but suddenly I feel like I don't know where to look with my eyes.I can no longer look at Ke Qi, and I can no longer look at Xie Jinhua, after all... don't look at evil.

Strange, strange, obviously they didn't do anything, they just looked at each other, how could it make people feel that no evil is seen?
