Chapter 499 Catch fleas
There is something pretty unbelievable.
The old woman has three sons.
They live in Menshan.
One of them lives in the local county.
This seems to be very ironic.
After all, when Gao Ge saw what happened in the past from the perspective of the monster’s soul, apart from the messy fight in the end, her three sons never showed up before that.
As is said in The Analects of Confucius, “They are few who, being filial and fraternal, are fond of offending against their superiors. There have been none, who, not liking to offend against their superiors, have been fond of stirring up confusion. The superior man bends his attention to what is radical. That being established, all practical courses naturally grow up. Filial piety and fraternal submission, are they not the root of all benevolent actions?”
What the above saying means is utterly simple.
A man of filial piety doesn’t oppose his superiors; as such, he will not raise a rebellion. Filial piety is the fundamental of a gentleman, with which, he will grasp the Way. Filial piety is the basis of benevolence highly praised by sages.
What a pity.
In the modern world, reality always does not accord with hopes!
It’s well known that filial piety is the foundation of all virtues. Kids are even required to write essays about that. Why do they forget it as they grow up? It is the father’s fault not to teach the son well. Since the three sons become such persons, Gao Ge is pretty sure that the old woman was somewhat accountable.
However, she is dead now.
Hence, it is meaningless to find by hard and thorough search why these three persons become like that.
Gao Ge only wants to do what he should do.
No.
In fact, he doesn’t need to do anything and may as well let the black cat do it.
Suddenly, Gao Ge stops.
“It is of no interest to go and kill them,” Gao Ge says.
The black cat screams.
The reason why it flies into a rage may be that it believes that Gao Ge has lied to it.
Of course Gao Ge won’t do such a thing.
Something more interesting suddenly occurs to him.
Then he makes a call to Tang Yashi.
“Ask the fox spirit to come here…”
…
Lu Zhong lives a happy life.
He is 42 years old.
He has a daughter and a son.
He feels very happy with that.
What’s more, he has a virtuous wife. At least he believes so.
Yet, the kids are too young.
Lu Zhong got married around 30 years old. His daughter is 9 years old while his son is only 5 years old.
Their academic performances are both great.
However, as he grows older, he starts to get more and more anxious. Otherwise, he won’t lose that much hair.
He doesn’t make any progress in his career. As a civil servant, he is on a monthly salary of 5,000 or 6,000 dollars. His son is going to primary school soon. As a result, his current house is obviously not enough. At least he must get a school-district house. It doesn’t have to be very large but it must be properly located, which is what his wife keeps talking about.
This is probably what is mentioned on TV…
That is, midlife crisis.
At the midnight, Lu Zhong suddenly awakes as if he has just had a nightmare. However, he cannot remember the nightmare, which is pretty rare. After all, he is awakened by the dream.Read More chapter on our vi pnovel. com
He lets out a long sigh for mood adjustment and then lies down again to sleep.
However, he lies in bed tossing and turning. Somehow, he just can’t fall asleep.
He feels like having a thorn in his heart.
“Do you want to sleep or not? If you don’t, just get out of here!” His wife has got impatient.
Lu Zhong hesitates, then climbs off the bed and then leaves the bedroom. He turns on the lamp in the living room, sits on the sofa and lights up a cigarette for himself. Then he thinks for a while, stands up, walks to the window, and opens it.
He didn’t have such a habit in the past.
