Chapter 19 A Real Man Can Bend and Stretch

"Father, should we hurry up?"

Chunhua Town, Xu Huizu tactfully urged Xu Da, who was getting slower as he got closer to the destination.

Xu Da turned his head and glared, "Why hurry up! There's nothing wrong with letting him suffer a little!"

"You've never been a farmer, so you don't know how difficult it is to be a farmer."

"Farmers must not only be able to endure hardships, but also be able to put down their dignity and personality..."

"If something really happens, a farmer man must be able to kneel down and dare to chop with a knife!"

Xu Huizu was stunned and stared at Xu Da with wide eyes.

Xu Da looked at him, shook his head, and asked, "Do you want to go back to our hometown Fengyang and be a farmer for a while?"

Hearing this, Xu Huizu's lips twitched fiercely.

Disappointment flashed in Xu Da's eyes.

He didn't force it.

He has laid down several generations of wealth for his descendants. As long as his descendants don't do stupid things, the Xu family business will be enough for several generations to enjoy.

If you don't want to, then don't.

The stronger the ability, the more restless and the more likely to cause trouble.

Being mediocre and competitive is not a bad thing for a family like theirs.

On the contrary, it is Silang.

Now that he has fallen into the dust, he needs strong abilities to live a good life.

Although the countryside is hard, it trains people.

Farmers, soldiers, generals, princes and generals, this is his resume. When he has experienced everything and stood in this position, looking back on the first half of his life.

Only then did he really understand that whether it was the emperor, him, or the old brothers standing in the court now.

They, the mud legs, can actually get to this point.

There is a component of luck.

But the most important thing is to respond to the words of Confucian scholars: A real man can bend and stretch!

The so-called real man can bend and stretch.

Many Confucian scholars do this: when they are insignificant, they are humble and servile; when they become rich and powerful, they are arrogant and domineering. Once they have power in their hands, they will issue orders!

There are many such civil servants in the court.

Typical representatives: Yang Xian, who has been executed, and Hu Weiyong, who is now following in Yang Xian's footsteps.

Of course, there are many scholars who truly understand the true meaning of a man who can bend and stretch.

Liu Ji is a representative in the court.

The so-called man who can bend and stretch is a reminder to people to learn to adapt to the environment and integrate into the environment.

In the sea, you can swim like a fish.

Ascending to the sky, you can fly like a bird.

They have jumped from mud legs to their current status.

The main reason is that they have adapted well to environmental changes in the first half of their lives and quickly integrated into them.

Farmers, soldiers, generals, every time their roles change and the resulting environmental changes, they quickly adapt and integrate, making themselves a perfect part of it.

And with a little ability and luck, they jumped up!

So many old brothers have come all the way, as long as they have achieved "flexibility" and adapted to role changes and environmental changes.

Even if their abilities are not strong and their luck is not good enough.

Without receiving the title of nobility, they also hold the real power that others envy!

They got what they dared not even think about when they were young!

However, the disadvantage of these people is that they are rough and uneducated and have no knowledge!

Many of them have not figured out why they stand out and become successful until now when the world is peaceful and they enjoy endless wealth and honor.

They succeeded in a muddle.

So much so that when the world is peaceful and wealth and honor come, the strings in their minds are broken and they lose their past sharpness.

Many people have begun to lose their ability to bend and stretch, and lose their ability to adapt to roles and environments.

They become arrogant and insatiable.

They are increasingly incompatible with the current environment!

There are many such cases among the old brothers. They can't explain it to them clearly. If you say too much, they will think you are too long-winded.

The typical representative is Lan Yu!

Of course, he can see it clearly, thanks to his eldest girl.

The true meaning of a man's ability to bend and stretch is what the eldest girl told him.

The eldest girl likes to read, and she is good at reading. Those scholars outside even gave her the nickname of "female scholar" out of jealousy.

As long as a person can truly understand and do well, and can bend and stretch to adapt to the environment and integrate into the living environment.

There is no need to worry about not having a good life.

…

"My sister just emptied a few cans of pickles at home, why are you so petty?" When Xu Da's thoughts were scattered, Xu Huizu's muttering came into his ears.

Xu Da laughed angrily and said angrily: "Your father is not petty, but he was hurt by your sister!"

Go!

Xu Da urged the horse to speed up.

Xu Huizu came back to his senses from his daze, couldn't help laughing, and hurriedly urged the horse to catch up...

…

Tuqiao Village.

Threshing ground.

A group of playing children were frightened by the sudden intrusion of brightly dressed horses. They gathered together and nervously looked at Lan Yu and others sitting high on the horseback.

Bang!

Lan Yu waved his whip at the air, and the sonic boom frightened the children so much that they turned pale and huddled together. "Do you know where Zhu Silang went?"

An older boy looked at Lan Yu fearfully and said weakly, "Zhu Silang and his newlywed wife went to their fields."

The children pointed the way.

Lan Yu and his group rode away.

"Father, why are you so mean to a group of children..." Lan Chun followed him and asked in confusion. His father was not polite to the emperor, but he had never seen such bullying of children before.

Lan Yu turned his head and glared, "Why, do I need to explain to you?"

Lan Chun shrank his neck.

Lan Yu shook her head in disappointment and hoped that the eldest son would dare to bear the pressure and continue to ask.

The purpose of this is simple.

Destroy Zhu Di's interpersonal relationships in Tuqiao Village!

Not only for children, he also targets all the people of Tuqiao Village he meets on the road!

After intimidating the people of Tuqiao Village.

Go to Zhu Di again and step on him hard.

The people of Tuqiao Village all knew that Zhu Silang had offended a big shot.

Having been a farmer, he knew very well that most farmers were cowardly and timid. When they felt the fear of a big shot crushing them to death, and then they knew that Zhu Silang had offended the big shot.

Zhu Di will be far away from isolation!

Zhu Di not only had to endure the physical pain caused by labor.

You also have to endure isolation and rejection, and mental torture!

Over time, even those who are made of iron will collapse!

Fighting for reserves?

Zhu Silang can’t even think of being a normal farmer!

…

When a ditch appeared on the roadside ahead, a figure digging the ditch appeared.

Lan Yu pointed his whip and sneered: "Charge over!"

"The child's father, look..." A couple who were digging a canal, the woman raised her head when she heard the noise, pointed at Lan Yu and others who were rushing towards her, and said with envy: "The tall horse, the silk and satin, you can see it at a glance I don’t dare to dream about such a wealthy and wealthy life, but this is the first time I’ve seen such a wealthy and wealthy man.”

The man tilted his head, listening to the mother-in-law muttering, and rolled his eyes angrily, "I know this person, Lan Yu! When we followed Chen Youliang to fame, Lan Yu was not famous yet..."

As the man spoke, his expression suddenly changed, and he shouted: "Hide quickly!"

The man threw away his head, turned around and ran towards the woman, throwing her into the ditch.

Ha ha……

Just when the woman was thrown into the ditch by the man, Lan Yu laughed heartily, mounted a war horse, and jumped over the two of them.

He reined in his horse, turned around, and drove his horse to the ditch. Looking at the couple crawling awkwardly in the ditch, he raised his whip and pointed at the man and said with a smile: "He is a man, he is a bit brave!"

A flash of humiliation flashed in the man's eyes, and he turned around and knelt in the canal, with a smile on his face: "How dare you show off your courage in front of General Lan."

"Do you know us?" Lan Yu looked at the man in surprise.

The man sneered: "I am a member of Chen Youliang's tribe. After surrendering to the Emperor, the Emperor placed me in Tuqiao Village. I was on the battlefield and was fortunate enough to see the general's style."

Ha ha……

"I didn't expect that you and I have such a connection!" Lan Yu laughed heartily. He was an old acquaintance, so he decided to end the intimidation and asked: "Where is Zhu Silang's family?"

"General, I'm asking about Shiro..." The man tried with a sneer.

Lan Yu's face turned cold instantly...
