Chapter 436
Zhuang Zhou was eager to try it out, and he had to make his opponent speechless and cry and admit his mistakes. As long as he could argue with others, Zhuang Zhou would rather go hungry.
Zhuang Zhou's family was not rich and became even poorer after marriage. If he had not had to support his family, he would not have been a lacquer garden official. He did not take this meager salary seriously at all. His parents did not understand him, but his wife tolerated him. Unfortunately, his wife could not become an opponent of Zhuang Zhou's debate.
The only thing that could make Zhuang Zhou interested in the entire Song State was his friend Hui Shi. However, Hui Shi was determined to seek an official position and wanted to do big things. He plunged into the mud of the officialdom and couldn't extricate himself. He didn't have much time to debate with Zhuang Zhou, so Zhuang Zhou was so bored that he quarreled with the old farmer in the fields.
Now a strange woman has come and put forward a strange point of view, so Zhuang Zhou is ready to open his firepower.
"Why do people say that they are vicious when they have their own minds? Why can they not have their own minds? Why can they not have their own minds? "However, they are not pure white?" However, before Zhuang Zhou could speak, Yun Yao took the lead and made a series of reasons why they were first confronted.
Zhuang Zhou was stunned. These questions were interesting. He answered decisively: "It is a treacherous intention to commit crimes and cheat. If you have these behaviors, you will naturally not have a pure white and ethereal state of mind. It is because everyone wants to save effort and want to be lazy. The Mohist government causes endless harm, because the Mohist government helps people to be lazy, saves their efforts, and promotes their treacherous intentions."
Yun Yao smiled and said, "If you don't work, don't say that farmers are lazy. If you can bury your head and farm without using a mechanism, this sentence is a bit convincing, but seeing your slender arms and no calluses on your palms, you know that you have never done heavy work. Why can you say that farmers are lazy when using a mechanism? Does it mean that farmers are less work if they use a mechanism? No, they save time for irrigation and have to do other work. They don't have to do anything after one thing, but they have to live a good life and work constantly. After doing farm work, they do housework and crafts. Where are they lazy?
"This?" Zhuang Zhou first encountered such a debate perspective, and it was a sharp point. If someone else had changed his mind, he would definitely have a fierce discussion about his intentions, but the other party did not bother him. Instead, he explained whether the agency could help others be lazy. Even if there was an agency, farmers would not be idle for a moment. Therefore, the argument of the agency helping the farmers to be lazy is not valid at all, so the argument naturally cannot stand firm.
"This girl is really a fairy and knows how to be polite to us farmers. Isn't that true? After irrigating the farmland, the family also needs to split wood, weave bamboo baskets, repair houses, and make holes. That will make you have leisure. This kid doesn't know the difficulty of living." After hearing Yunyao's words, the old farmer immediately thought that Yunyao was not a fairy but a fairy, because only the fairy would understand the hard work, and this was the real talk for their farmers.
"Brother-in-law, please continue, he will leave it to me." Yunyao said, then looked at Zhuang Zhou and asked, "Where is your home? Take us to your house as a guest."
Zhuang Zhou felt that the other party's words had a magic power that could not be refused, so he took the five people back to his home.
The family is very simple, but very clean. There is also a woman in the house, Zhuang Zhou's wife. This wife is obviously a hard-working type. Although she is not beautiful, she is honest and reliable. She is definitely a good wife.
When the wife saw her husband bringing five fairies home, she was frightened. She knew her husband. Her husband was not a lustful person, but her husband was talented and learned. Perhaps it was a prince who liked her husband and gave him five concubines. What should I do? Are I going to be kicked out of the house?
Yao Zhuang's surname is Yao. Zhuang represents that she married Zhuang Zhou. She is still the same surname as Yun Yao. Yun Yao must be her ancestor. In terms of bloodline, the same surname comes from the same ancient tribe and has the same bloodline. Yun Yao was born five hundred years ago, so he is naturally the ancestor.
"What are these five?" Yao Zhuang was already tearful and had made the worst plan in his heart.
"Ah? I don't know you, I met on the road." Zhuang Zhou said confusedly. He was confused now. Five beauties suddenly appeared and suddenly came to his house as a guest. Every family had nothing to entertain.
"Don't lie to me." Yao Zhuang said miserably. Although his husband often acted strangely, where did he meet five beauties in broad daylight? His husband must have not told the truth.
But Yunyao said, "Hello, Madam, my name is Yunyao. I did meet your husband on the way, so I came here to check it out. By the way, I will verify my guess. May I ask, does he work on weekdays?"
Facing the gentle beauty with a gentle face, Yao Zhuang was inexplicably relieved. In fact, it was Yun Yao who used Ningshen's spell to calm the other party's mind.
"Working? He either runs around and quarrels with people, or sees Zhu Jian and forgets to eat. He feels tired even when he eats. How can he work?" Yao Zhuang counts his husband's shortcomings in detail. He seems to be complaining, but anyone with discerning eyes can tell that she is actually proud of her husband. Although Zhuang Zhou is very poor and does not care about his family, his wife believes in her husband's skills, and of course he also understands the idea that her husband is unwilling to be an official.
But my wife is an ordinary person after all, so she still complains.
Zhuang Zhou was also a little ashamed at this time, not because he didn't work, but because he lost the debate. Yunyao was not only sharp in words, but also had a rigorous work. Through verification, she made her proposal more indestructible.
Yao Zhuang still asked with some uncertainty: "The five are really guests?"
"Yes, we are here to visit." Yun Yao said.
Yao Zhuang's face was flushed because as the host, she had nothing at home and could only barely eat enough and had no energy to greet the guests. It was embarrassing to the scholars' family, so she wanted to borrow some food next door, so she had to set up a table: "You greet the guests, I'll borrow food."
Yunyao thought of the story of Zhuangzi borrowing grain and the dried rut. It means that Zhuangzi went to Jianhehou to borrow grain. Jianhehou said that when he collected taxes, he would lend him three hundred gold. Zhuangzi said that I saw a fish in the dry riverbed that was about to die, so I told the fish that I would go to the east to Yue Kingdom immediately and ask them to dig a canal to lure the water of the East China Sea to save you.
Yu scolded, "You might as well go to the dry goods store to find me."
In fact, the Marquis of Jianhe also deliberately made things difficult for Zhuangzi because Zhuangzi was talented but unwilling to be an official. Such disobedient people were always unwilling to be favored by those who were superiors.
Although Zhuangzi thinks that he is in seclusion and poverty and is happy to talk about no one can offend him, his attitude will make the superiors feel that he is looked down upon.
"No need to borrow food, we fairies don't have to eat." Yun Yao said as if jokingly.
"Nonsense, as long as people are, they have to eat." Yao Zhuang thought that the other party despised himself for his poverty, and said stubbornly: "Although we don't have much money, we also know how to treat guests. Don't make fun of us." As the wife of a scholar, she also has to be polite, otherwise she would be sorry for her identity?
"Yaozhuang, since they don't eat, don't eat." Zhuang Zhou would not stick to the minor details, so he called his wife.
