Chapter 3170 The old cycle or the new direction
The wind and snow were sweeping, and the sky was so chaotic that no stars could be seen at all.
In the quiet courtyard, Xun Yu sat alone silently.
Next to him was a stove, with a pot of water on it. The charcoal fire in the stove was providing him with warmth as much as possible. Unfortunately, the red light in the cold wind did not have enough strength to fight the cold, just like kindness was always weak in the face of malice.
Malicious intentions filled the surroundings, as if darkness was everywhere and icy was everywhere.
There are too many malicious models in Shandong. Everything can be malicious, such as malicious work, malicious travel, malicious farming...
So do you think you can escape malice by lying flat at home?
It's too naive because there is still malicious intention to lie down and malicious intention not to work.
So even if Xun Yu wants to lie flat at home, he cannot stop malicious visits.
Xun Li is here.
With the courtyard gate closed with a few clicks, all the servants avoided the courtyard and left the space and light to Xun Yu and Xun Wu.
Two Xuns can't be written in one stroke.
However, if you lose one, you can become a guru.
The door was closed, and only a few rays of light oozed out in the gap.
The old manager of the Xun family stood outside the yard with a lantern, carrying a silhouette. He had to ensure that no one could eavesdrop on the call of the man inside at any time.
Both are husbands.
One is Xun Shuang's son and the other is Xun Shuang's nephew.
It was supposed to be a brother-in-law, but now...
The old manager of the Xun family was silent and standing, like a stone. A stone covered with moss and looked scarred after years of the Xun family.
Xun Yu seemed to be waiting for the water cooked on the stove next to him to boil and did not speak.
The clear extinction of the firelight reflected Xun Yu's face, which seemed to be gloomy and clear.
Xun Lie laughed dryly and went over to pick the fire: "Actually... my brother has had a hard time these days...
Xun Yu was silent and shook his head, but it did not mean negation, but seemed a little overwhelmed.
So what if it is bitter or not?
Can Xun Lie be evaluated?
So what if it can, so what if it can't?
So Xun Yu didn't say anything, just listened to the gurgling water on the stove.
After a while in the courtyard, Xun Yu said, "That year, my uncle said, "How can prophecy be used to serve the country?" Now it seems...hehe..."
Xun Yu chuckled, as if he was laughing at himself, and as if he was laughing at the various rumors and prophecies that have been making waves these days.
『I remember that in the early years of Xiping, my uncle brought me here...』 Xun Yu said slowly, 『At that time, Yingchuan was very big...』
After hearing Xun Yu's words, Xun Wu also laughed twice.
Although he was also laughing, Xun Li was a little stiff.
For Xun Yu, the early years of Xiping may be a huge change in his life.
The same is true for Xun Li.
If a large family wants to pass on the inheritance, they often have some "conventional" measures.
Because no one can guarantee that their descendants must be smart, most gentry will consciously look for the next generation of intelligent people to cultivate, just like raising a gu, putting many children together to learn and teach them, and the intelligent people stand out, and those with average qualifications will become a foil.
The older the aristocrats, the more they are.
Just like the so-called Eight Dragons of Xun's family, they are only one or two of them appearing all year round, while the others have become one of the Eight Dragons.
So when Balong's children were gathered together and in the Xun Family School, the gap between them appeared.
Comparing people with others will make people angry.
Especially when these children know who will become their leader, students of the same surname, clan and family can not comfort the breeding of all kinds of malice in their hearts.
『In the school, Chong brother is the most talented, learns the best and fastest, and he wins the most with everyone...』 Xun Yu raised his head slightly, speaking unfastly, as if he was immersed in memories, 『He has a good relationship with everyone, and he has contact with you. But among all the brothers, I rarely get close to him... You have asked me about this... Do you remember?"
Xun Wu thought about it and nodded slightly, "It seems that there is something happening... At that time, I seemed to ask you why, and you didn't give a specific reason... I thought it was because of Chong's behavior in private... So I also alienated him for a while and observed him secretly. Later, I found that his character was not bad, so I thought it was you who misunderstood him..."
『What about now?』 Xun Yu asked, 『Are you still thinking so?"
Xun Wei was suddenly stunned, and then his eyes became a little wandering. After a while, he sighed in a low voice: "Indeed, now I think... I'm probably... Mu Xiu Yulin..."
"Huh..." Xun Yu breathed out a long sigh.
The water boiled.
Xun Yu lifted the kettle and poured it into the tea bowl.
For some reason, Xun Yu suddenly remembered another friend who didn’t like drinking tea but liked drinking...
Xun Yu paused for a moment, then quickly recovered, pushing the tea bowl towards Xun Li.
Xun Wu thanked him and picked up the tea bowl.
The warm tea soup seemed to add a little warmth to this cold night.
"I had no roots back then," Xun Yu whispered.
"Rent?" Xun Qi asked.
"Yes, there is no root." Xun Yu sighed, "If you want to become a tree, you should have deep roots. Only by accumulating a lot can you grow thinly... If the roots are not deep but you just sway, it may not be sunshine, rain or dew, or wind, frost, rain or snow... What do you think?"
Xun Li's hand suddenly shook, almost spilling the tea soup.
"Why is the root of the tree underground?" Xun Yu seemed to be asking Xun Li, but it seemed to be just saying a truth. "Everyone just saw the lush branches and leaves on the ground, but could not see the underground spreading deep... I only knew how to reveal it back then, but I didn't know how to hide it... so I would inevitably attract disasters... But I couldn't say this at that time."
The north wind whistles and snowflakes fly.
It seems that in the cold wind, the soul of the teenager was roaring angrily, why didn’t you say it earlier?
But in fact, some things can only be understood by the parties involved. Otherwise, if others persuade them, sometimes there will be a counterproductive effect, which will make the parties involved feel like they are insulting or cursing.
Xun Wei thought for a while, shook his head, "Brother Chong, it's a pity after all..."
Xun Yu glanced at Xun Li, "Don't forget the past, but the teacher of the future. The reason why I don't like the cavalry is that the foundation of the cavalry is too shallow... If the wind is gentle and sunny, there will be no problem. If there is wind and snow coming, it may be difficult to support it..."
When talking about others, Xun Wu seemed much more relaxed. Haha, he smiled, "What my brother said is very much. As the hearts of the people today have measurements, how can we judge heroes based on the outcome of the moment? This warrior is like a knife. It is not sharp, but it is too sharp. It is not only easy to break himself, but also easy to hurt the person holding the knife... The rules that should be had should still be. The rules that the Han Dynasty has set over the years are to make the sword and gun easily hurt people. Otherwise, if they all learn from Dong's thief, wouldn't there be no peace in the world?"
Xun Yu listened silently, and then suddenly said, "So brother, you are discussing with the Yuan son, are going to set a rule?"
"Ah?!" Xun Xun was shocked and the tea bowl almost overturned.
Xun Yu still looked down at the tea in his tea bowl, "Things are like this in the world... Even if you say something kind, I may not have listened to you back then... You came today, but for the Shanshan Treaty?"
"Uh...this..." Xun Fu was obviously a little panicked, but he still said, "I'd like to ask my brother for advice..."
『Ha…』 Xun Yu put down the tea bowl, 『This move of the cavalry is digging the roots.』
"Digging the roots?" Xun Lie frowned.
Xun Yu nodded, repeated, "Digging the roots."
"Then..." Xun Fu wanted to ask more details, but saw that Xun Yu had already stood up.
"The sky is windy and snowy, the water is cold and the tea is gone..." Xun Yu said slowly, "I won't send you my brother... Let's go..."
For some reason, Xun Qi's heart suddenly jumped. But seeing that Xun Yu seemed to be so gentle, his tone was calm, and there seemed to be nothing abnormal, or negative emotions such as anger, Xun Qi swallowed and could only stand up and say goodbye.
The old manager who had been standing outside the yard in the wind and snow had fallen on his body.
Hearing the movement inside the courtyard gate, he quickly turned around and said, "Mr.
Xun Wu glanced back slightly, then approached the old manager, "Uncle, you have loved me the most since you were a child..."
The old manager lowered his head, "The old slave's duty is..."
Xun Wu also lowered his head slightly, "Brother Yu, there is nothing wrong with these days, right? Eat and rest, are you all good?"
The old manager still lowered his head, "Your husband is kind, and you're good."
『Oh…』 Xun Wu nodded in confusion, 『That’s good, that’s good…』
The old manager greeted him and asked the servants from afar to step forward and hold an umbrella for Xun Li to cover the wind and snow.
After Xun Li left, the old manager came back.
Xun Yu looked up at the old housekeeper and asked him to stand and stop moving. Then he took a whisk from the table and swept away the snow on his body for the old housekeeper. "Uncle, you are old, don't show off..."
The old manager was not willing to let Xun Yu take action, but he couldn't resist it, so he had to bear it. "Just just now, I asked you about your daily life and movements..."
"Yes." Xun Yu nodded, "I understand. It's not too early, uncle, please rest earlier."
The old manager nodded and asked again before he stepped down: "Yourangjun... really don't care?"
After all, Xun Yu inherited part of the legacy left by Xun Shuang back then.
Xun Yu let out a long breath, and then whispered for a while: "It depends on him, not me."
