Chapter 214 Think twice

In the week after the funeral, when Sun Yaxian had passed her first trimester, Ling You's body had recovered more than half, and her vision and hearing had improved greatly.

On this day, Ling Yun prepared the meal and went to call Wei Shuyang and Ling You who were playing chess in the small courtyard. The two said they would finish the game before eating.

At this time, Wei Shuyang asked: "When will you leave?"

Ling You hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Tomorrow, how about you?"

When Wei Shuyang heard this, he picked up a chess piece in his hand and looked at the courtyard of Sanqi Hall and said, "I'm not leaving, so I'll stay here."

Ling You raised his head and looked over, and Wei Shuyang pretended to be unhappy and asked, "What? I'm not welcome to live here?"

Ling You quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no, how could it be."

Wei Shuyang laughed twice, then sighed and said: "Here, we are closer to those two old guys. I am bored, and I can still talk to them."

Then after putting down the chess piece in his hand, he pointed at Ling You and said, "At the same time, it can also help you keep an eye on Sanqitang and solve your worries. What do you think?"

Ling You looked at Wei Shuyang with mixed feelings in his heart. He nodded and said, "Of course you want me, kid." After saying that, he also lost one.

Wei Shuyang raised his hand to pick up a "rook", dropped it and said with a smile: "It's a dead game."

After saying that, he stood up and straightened his clothes: "You kid, you are not in your best condition."

Ling You also stood up and walked forward with Ling Yun, one on the left and one on the right, accompanying Wei Shuyang to the main hall. Ling You said as he walked: "I'm fine without Grandpa Wei."

Wei Shuyang snorted: "I'm talking nonsense, distracted, and absent-minded. Do you really think I'm an old fool?"

Ling You smiled bitterly: "You are very clear-sighted, how dare I lie to you?"

After helping Wei Shuyang sit down, Ling You also sat down, and then said: "Mr. Qin called me yesterday, chatted with me for a long time, and said that he hoped I could go to the capital in the next two days."

After hearing this, Wei Shuyang reached for the chopsticks, paused slightly, and then said, "What are you hesitating about?"

Ling You picked up the bowl and was silent for a moment before saying: "After experiencing this, I..."

Speaking of this, he quickly added: "It's not because of anything else, I'm just afraid..." As he said that, he looked at Wei Shuyang and then at Ling Yun.

Wei Shuyang understood it, so he said: "Xiaoyou, there is a famous saying, have you heard of it?"

Ling You was startled when he heard this, and looked at Wei Shuyang. Wei Shuyang picked up a piece of vegetables and said, "Listen to the cries of the crickets, why don't you plant crops yet?"

Ling Yun on the side laughed after hearing this: "Grandpa Wei, what kind of famous saying is this?"

Wei Shuyang also laughed twice, and then said to Ling You: "You are afraid of the east and the west, so why don't you go anywhere and stay with us." After saying this, he pointed with his chopsticks again.

Ling Yun: "Xiao Yun, too, don't go anywhere, just stay by your brother's side. The two of us will never leave him." After saying that, he looked at Ling You and leaned forward: "Now,

Do you like it?"

Ling You clicked his tongue and said with a wry smile: "Please stop teasing me. I know I'm wrong, so why not!"

When Wei Shuyang heard this, he said with some playfulness: "Xiaoyou, you are not the one I watched grow up with my own eyes. When you were a teenager, you dared to say arrogant things and set your life for the common people."

Ling You lowered his head and sighed: "In the past, ignorant people were fearless, and newborn calves were not afraid of tigers. Now that they have seen the darkness, they are afraid of the dark. Grandpa Wei, I am also a human being. I also have seven emotions and six desires. I am just an ordinary flesh and blood person."

Body, nothing more."

Wei Shuyang smiled, looked at Ling You and said, "We Xiaoyou have really grown up now."

Speaking of this, Wei Shuyang stroked his beard, and then said happily: "No one who eats whole grains will not experience birth, old age, illness, and death. Therefore, people are human beings, and they must first understand fear before they can overcome it. If you only know how to be fearless,

To rush forward without fear is a reckless act and is definitely not the behavior of a wise man."

Ling You nodded when he heard this, and Wei Shuyang continued: "The Analects of Confucius: Gongye Chang says that Ji Wenzi thinks twice before acting. So do you know what these three times are?"

Ling You shook his head, and Wei Shuyang said: "Think twice, which means to think about danger, think about retreat, and think about change. Thinking about danger means that only if you have experienced it, can you think about how you acted in the past when you encounter danger again in the future.

The wrong and dangerous place; thinking about retreat means that you can retreat to a safe place and wait for the opportunity after knowing the danger; thinking about change means that once you encounter a good opportunity, you should immediately attack to seize the opportunity and then break through the current dangerous situation.

.That’s why it’s called, think twice before you act.”

Ling You couldn't help but nod after hearing this: "Grandpa Wei, the boy has learned a lesson."

Wei Shuyang waved his hand, and then continued: "We must go back to Hedong this time, and I don't think this accident has much to do with General Qin. The old man has a clear mind, and the reason why you can do it this time

Encountered this dangerous situation, but failed to resolve it satisfactorily,

I think it's because Qin Songbai's vision is limited. He failed to fully understand General Qin's intention of sending you to Hedong. Although he is now an official in a provincial border, he can't look at people and employ people.

, compared to Qin Weishan, the difference is more than one and a half stars."

Ling You looked at Wei Shuyang and shook his head: "I have never blamed the Qin family. This is not their fault. If I want to blame, I can only blame myself for being too young."

Wei Shuyang took a bite of his food, put down his chopsticks and said: "How can I say this? If you are just an ordinary town mayor, you still don't know what situation you are in now. You were saved by Qin Songbai.

You have to thank him; but then again, since you are now

Since you have been labeled as a "Qin family confidant", then the Qin family should be responsible for your safety. After all, a big tree attracts wind, and risks and opportunities are attracted by this hat. So while you are whitewashing and strengthening this hat, this hat

, I should also protect you from wind and rain."

Speaking of this, Wei Shuyang raised his hand and continued: "Since we talked about this topic today, I have one last thing to tell you."

After hearing this, Ling You said: "Please give me some advice."

Wei Shuyang then stroked his beard and slowly said: "Mencius said: A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall."

Ling You looked at Wei Shuyang in confusion, and Wei Shuyang quickly waved his hand: "I'm not asking you to be a coward. I'm telling you that whether you are a human being or an official, you must never put yourself in danger.

When we treat a gentleman, we should behave with the courtesy of a gentleman, but when we treat a villain, you

You have to be extremely vigilant, and you don't have to stick to the way of a gentleman. Since you are now wearing the title of "Qin family", you can still pull the tiger's skin and pull the flag. As long as what you do is correct and selfless for the public,

Don't stick to your duty, and when the time comes, you may gain a loyal reputation but lose your life."

Speaking of this, Wei Shuyang looked at Ling You meaningfully, and then said: "I hope you can be like Guo Ziyi, but I don't want you to be like Yue Pengju."

Ling You smiled: "I know, kid."

As he said that, he looked at Ling Yun, and then whispered to Wei Shuyang: "Let's have some drinks, please?"

When Wei Shuyang heard this, he immediately became interested and nodded quickly: "Okay."

Ling Yun rolled his eyes at the two of them and said displeasedly: "One has just recovered from a serious illness, and the other has just lowered his blood pressure. No one is allowed to drink."
