Chapter 204 (1/2)
But in the end, Daya couldn't see the way these scholars talked and thought they were right. She proudly pointed to Fang Yizhi and said, ”our young master is only 12 years old this year, but she has just been admitted to the scholar.”
”Daya, shut up.” Fang ruxiu scolded with some unhappiness after hearing this.
However, these scholars have heard Daya's words. They feel very surprised. They look at Daya and think she is lying. Some people have just been admitted to the scholar. When they are happy, they jokingly say, ”hum, if you talk big, you are not afraid to flash your tongue.”
She wanted to argue with them, but Fang ruxiu gave her a cold look and said, ”let's go. Don't disturb these scholars. Zhong Li, you should prepare the contract and remember to collect the rent.”
Then she really left with Daya and Fang with a straight face of disdain.
On the way back to his yard, Daya said unhappily: ”Miss, why don't you let me say it? These scholars, so old, thought they were powerful. They foolishly told you what to do with your house, and gave you a little money. They thought they were uncle.”
Fang ruxiu shook her head when she heard Daya's words and said, ”the mouth grows on others. Let them say it. We are not the same as them. Just like a rich man, do we show how much money we have with a beggar? So there is nothing to show them about our family. They are tenants and we are landlords, that's all.”
”Well, I know.” Daya stuck out her tongue. The three words' our family 'said by the other party, such as embroidery, expressed special happiness.
After Fang ruxiu said great elegance, she began to teach Fang Yizhi a lesson. She said, ”Yizhi, do you think you are a genius?”
”No.” Fang Yi shook his head.
”So you were admitted to the scholar at a young age, which is really a great joy. Therefore, if you meet a fellow gathering and everyone praises you as a genius, you should always remember that you are not a genius, you just work harder than ordinary people.” Fang ruxiu warned:
”Only the effort to find the right direction is the only way to victory. The name of genius can't help you. My sister doesn't want you to take the talent test too early. She's also afraid that you will indulge in it because you listen to too many praise words and think you're really a genius.”
”I know, sister.” seeing Fang ruxiu's serious expression, Fang Yizhi became serious.
Then Fang ruxiu began to tell Fang a straight story. She told a story about a pianist who wanted to make a piano with the most beautiful melody in the world. He went to Yushan in the west to find a pure and flawless jade heart to make the body, and carefully polished the shape, but he couldn't find a suitable string. In order to make this piano well, he tried to use horsetail, silver wire and gold wire, But every time he plays, the tone is not what he wants.
Others say, you give up. The music is already very beautiful. You are really a genius, but the pianist did not give up. He has been looking for 999 silk threads as strings, but they are not the kind he wants.
Some of these silk threads are very rare. In order to get these silk threads, he almost died several times. In order to get these silk threads, his fingers were worn out of blood, but he still didn't find the one he wanted.
People who heard his piano said, give up. The piano sound is really good. I almost want to indulge in it.
However, the pianist still didn't find the timbre in his mind and the best string he thought. He knew that what they said sounded right, but anyone could make such a beautiful timbre. What he wanted to make was a piano that could be handed down through the ages and recorded in the history of history, so he didn't give up.
He continued to travel and look for his strings. One day, he came to the snow mountain and saw a crystal clear silkworm spinning. Its silk thread is also crystal clear. Under the reflection of the sun, it has colorful light.
He sensed that this was the string he wanted, so he collected the silk and went home. Sure enough, when he made the string and installed it on the body, he played it gently and heard the most beautiful movement of the time.
He was praised by others as a talent in the piano world, but he said: Genius is one percent talent plus 99 percent sweat. I can make this piano not because of talent, but because of hard work
After hearing his words, all those who praised him were silent. Everyone thought about what they had given up in their life and fell into meditation
When Fang ruxiu finished a story, Fang Yizhi also fell into meditation. For a long time, he nodded to Fang ruxiu and said, ”I know, sister.”
”What do you know?” Fang ruxiu asked.
