It was almost eleven o'clock in the evening when I sent Xu Nuo home.
After Wu Hao left, I asked Xu Nuo: "Do you have anything to eat at home? I haven't eaten all day."
She was sitting on the small lounge chair on the balcony at that time, and two words popped out of her mouth: "No."
"That's broken. I can't order takeout during the Chinese New Year."
As I said this, I walked to her kitchen. When I opened the refrigerator, I was surprised to see that it was full of meat and vegetables: "Isn't this all edible? Do you mean it's ready?"
She didn't say anything, and I didn't bother to pay attention to her. I took out a piece of meat and two eggs from the refrigerator, intending to make myself some noodles to deal with it.
After working for ten minutes, Xu Nuo was still sitting there when I took out the two bowls of noodles.
I put the noodles on the small coffee table in front of her: "There is still more in the pot. If you want to eat, you can take a bite. If you don't want to eat, you can stay hungry all night. Anyway, I am hungry."
After saying that, I mentioned Tu Lu and kept stuffing the noodles into my mouth. It’s not that I’m really hungry. With my current physical condition, it doesn’t matter even if I don’t eat or drink for a year, but I’m used to leaving it there. I always feel less if I don’t eat.
What.
There was still no response from Xu Nuo, and she kept staring outside as if she was looking at Dao before she died.
There happened to be flowers outside, and her family lived in a high-rise building. Fireworks bloomed in front of her eyes, and the sound of firecrackers reached her ears. The festive atmosphere created a huge contrast with Xu Nuo's current state of mind, which made this bitch start to control herself again.
Unable to control his emotions, his eye circles slowly turned red.
"Let's be open-minded. Even if they separate, they will still be your parents. It won't really matter. You are already old anyway. After you get married, you will have to leave them and live your own life. Sooner or later."
I put the empty bowl in front of me: "Everyone hopes that their parents are the best parents in the world, and they all think that their parents will not make mistakes, but they are human beings first, and they will make mistakes as humans. Even if there are moral constraints, some are engraved in the
Things in genes are unavoidable."
"Don't tell me these big principles, I don't want to hear them."
"Then can you put an end to this bad situation? It's the Chinese New Year, and other families are rejoicing. Why don't you just sit here and sigh, why don't you want to have a good time this year?"
"I want to have a good life. Do you think they want me to have a good life?"
Xu Nuo moved his eyes to my face: "When your parents get divorced, I'll see if you can still stand and talk like you do now without back pain."
When she said this, I got a little excited: "It's more miserable, right? When I lost my memory, I didn't even know who my parents were at that time, and I didn't sigh all day long like you, right?"
Then Xunuo glared at me: "Then who was crying and crying at the door of the Internet cafe: Xunuo, I forgot who my parents were, and then insisted on recognizing me as my mother?"
Her words made me feel so uncomfortable.
But I had to admit that what she said before was true, so I could only focus on her personal affairs and refute: "Don't let it go here, who insists on recognizing you as my mother?"
She didn't bother me about this: "Yes, I'm not as big-hearted as you, but I think you have the skills to persuade me, so why not just help me clear all the bad memories from my parents' minds and let them
It shouldn't be a difficult thing for you if they reconcile again, right?"
After going round and round, I finally came up here.
In fact, I had already expected that Xu Nuo would have such thoughts, and I even thought about my excuse for rejecting her: "No way, this is against the rules."
"Why do you always tell me the rules?"
Xu Nuo was a little anxious: "This won't work, that won't work either, so what's the use of my practice?"
"Cultivating Taoism is about cultivating the path of compassion for heaven and earth, not for dealing with such trivial matters as family relationships."
I slowly told Xu Nuo: "Besides, no one is forcing you, you don't have to practice. What, think about it. If you don't want to practice, I will help you destroy the spiritual roots in your body."
Then the promise faded.
She sat back on the recliner: "Gu Yan, you are a bit too inhumane. I don't know if it's just you or all of you, but I think this is wrong.
The ancients said that cultivating one's moral character, managing one's family, governing the country, and bringing peace to the world. If you can't even handle your own household affairs well and go out all day with a shy face and talk about compassion for others, do you think this is right?"
I nodded: "Well, what you said makes sense, but the author of the book "Book of Rites·University" is Confucius. He was born in the Spring and Autumn Period, and the time when Tao completely replaced witchcraft was around 9,000 BC.
At that time, Confucius's 108th generation ancestor might not even be a fertilized egg, so don't use the words of the ancients to reason with me. I don't accept this.
Also, let me emphasize again, the purpose of teaching you cultivation is to strengthen your body and give you the ability to protect yourself. It is not for you to use this to bully others, but to benefit yourself.
Yes, I don't obey the laws of heaven, but you can't. Today I indulge you and let you taste the sweetness of using your cultivation to benefit yourself. What if one day I am gone, who can protect you when the disaster comes?
?Are you counting on Xu Mingyang, or on yourself?"
"Okay, okay, don't go online with me again."
Xu Nuo acted very impatient: "I don't want to talk to you now. You can go. I want to be alone."
I was not used to her, so I stood up and put the key on the table: "Okay, then I will go and do my own business. Once I leave this time, it may be three to five months, or it may be ten years before I come back."
Eight years, if we are unlucky, we may never see each other again in this life.
But it doesn’t matter, these are the keys to my two houses. Before I leave, I will say hello to Uncle Yang. If I can’t come back, ask him to transfer these two houses to your name. I will treat them as if we have met each other.
Your gift."
This sentence of mine makes Xu promise gross.
She stood up slowly: "Why are you going? I'm timid, so don't scare me."
"I'm not trying to scare you, I'm telling the truth."
When I looked at her, my expression was quite serious: "There are so many things to do when I go out this time, and the enemies I have to face are more dangerous than the last. There is a real possibility that I won't be able to come back.
But you don’t have to worry too much. Even if I really can’t come back, it doesn’t mean that I will lose my life. Let’s see what happens when the time comes. If nothing happens, I should be in heaven.”
When I said this, I pointed to the crescent moon hanging on the horizon outside the window: "Did you see the moon? Look at it more when you miss me in the future. Maybe I will be watching you from above then, but wait
After you get married, you'd better not show up under the moonlight with your husband, I'll be pissed off."
