Chapter 68: The Wizard who loudly promotes gratitude (Part 1)

"Great talent!" Cheng Xia replied proudly. If he succeeded in recognizing his ancestors this time, he would become a native of Jiangxia, so Feng Jing's honor is also his pride.

Zhao Xing shook his head.

"Your kindness is deep?... I understand the accident?... The noble person supports you?... The family is rich?" This sentence was said by a scholar standing behind him. After the children's answer was denied, most people were waiting for the teacher's answer. At this time, the scholar couldn't help but interrupt.

"No, he can succeed because he knows his kindness." Zhao Xing casually told the children about Feng Jing's anecdotes.

Feng Jing was playful in his early years and sometimes he did not return late at night. Once he was detained by a street patrolman at night. Wang Su, the magistrate of Wuchang County, tried his best to excuse him and released him back. Later, Feng Jing was sent to Guanzhong, and Wang Su was in charge of soldiers in Wei. The two met and the banquet was very happy. Feng Jing wrote a poem to Wang Su, and there was a line in it: "It is unforgettable to swallow charcoal that day, and he was deeply ashamed of the accumulation of money later."

This means that even if I change my appearance and voice (also refer to the change of status and identity), I will not forget the detention of the street soldiers back then; even if I come from behind (also refer to my status exceeding Wang Su at this time), I am ashamed of being unable to repay your great kindness.

When a person is young, he is full of energy and does not care about details or appearance. After he becomes noble, according to ordinary people, he is unwilling to listen to his previous mistakes, so how could he take the initiative to talk to his old friends and write them into his poems? Feng Jing is so unlucky and promotes his kindness everywhere. Then, what did he gain?

Everyone knows that he is a person who is grateful for his kindness. So, no one will make things difficult for him when he can do his best. He has more "benefactors" in the officialdom than enemies - can such a person not be promoted step by step?

"This is great wisdom," Zhao Xing said with emotion: "Overyone will regret their youthful recklessness. By the way, they will hide those ridiculous years and pretend that they can't see what they helped themselves when they were young.

What's more, some people are promoted to their former benefactors, and they are afraid that others will repay their kindness, so they will first attack and exclude those former bosses. They think that if they let these people bow to them, they can control their subordinates and then promote step by step. However, they are wrong...

A businessman can gain the respect of everyone in an environment of discrimination and become the first businessman prime minister in ancient and modern times. Feng Jing relies on this great wisdom, while others are petty and think they are smart, but they don’t know that they are all small wisdom, even stupid, and eventually become a speck of dust.

Children, you must remember: some people always think that this world is too realistic, and no one can help you when you need help the most; some people also think that this world is too hypocritical, and that the people who usually "want" to help you have disappeared when you need help the most. But some people know: how to make those who usually "want" to help themselves not turn around and leave...

Success is actually that simple - gratitude, and let everyone know your gratitude!"

How incisive!

After Zhao Xing's summary, the children nodded admirably, and the scholars standing behind them also admired from the bottom of their hearts: "It hits the word! Great wisdom! I thought that Mr. Feng, who was ranked third, had a stunning talent and was able to rise step by step. It turns out that there is such a reason, such wisdom is amazing...

Wait, if you can see through Feng Gong’s wisdom, you must be a wise man. Where is the one from? Who is the name of the name? I am free today, can you ask my brother to go to the Mingyue Tower in the city?”

Zhao Xing shook his head, and Cheng Xia, who had always been calm, couldn't wait to announce: "We are from Qishui, and we are from the Cheng tribe of Qishui. This is the deacon of my Qishui Cheng tribe. My teacher's name is Li Ren!"

The Cheng clan deacon who did not have the surname Cheng - Cheng Xia, this sentence has pointed out Zhao Xing's identity as Cheng clan, and the implicit meaning is: the teacher is the son-in-law of my Cheng clan. This is a method commonly used by a large family when developing: to absorb outstanding people from other surnames into the family and participate in the development decisions in the clan.

However, another meaning of this sentence can also be regarded as an insult. Because during the heyday of the family, the identity of "son-in-law" was very low and even his surname could not be retained. This system still existed in the Tang Dynasty, so in tradition, people still had a little disagreement.

After Feng Jing, the "three-yuan" in front of him, he was tied up by a relative of his family and insisted on being a son-in-law. He also lied to him that he was "this is the best intention." Fortunately, Lord Feng was able to remain stable and devoted himself to being Fu Bi's son-in-law.

In ancient China, only in the Song Dynasty, a son-in-law was not only not a shame, but was a great honor and a label for talented people.

Only in the Song Dynasty, the treatment of a son-in-law deviated from tradition and still had the right to retain his own name and surname.

Zhao Xing had previously mistakenly viewed his son-in-law's identity with modern ideas. He did not expect that Su Shi would be willing to take charge of such a wedding. But then, after a little research on the history of the Song Dynasty, he found that he was wrong.

However, even though he knew his mistake, he insisted on leaving Chengjiaao and making a breakthrough in the world by himself.

Although there may be risks everywhere in the outside world, he still wants to take a look at the greatest era of ancient China.

Behind him, the scholars were still whispering, and the words came from vaguely revealing the secular and utilitarianism: Who is this?... This person is extraordinary and proficient in the secrets of the officialdom. He will definitely be in a high position in the future. We must use his white life now to communicate with him quickly...

These vague words made Cheng Xia quite proud - what he said just now was to achieve the goal of highlighting his own clan. Now he is satisfied.

Zhao Xing seemed very calm and raised his hand to salute: "Dear brothers, we still have important things to do. We just came out to stroll around just now. It's too late, so I'm afraid I can't go to your appointment. I'll bother you! Everyone, there will be a date in the future!"

After saying that, he left without hesitation.

In the Cheng clan ancestral hall, Cheng Duozheng respectfully burned incense to his ancestors according to the clan rules. The Cheng clan children stood behind him and saluted in a straight manner according to Cheng clan's actions... There was nothing Zhao Xing's business. He walked leisurely in the back garden of Cheng clan with his hands behind his back.

It is impossible not to say that Su Shi had a great influence on Jiangnan. Now many wealthy people in Jiangnan like to plant some pine, cypress, plum blossoms, and bamboo in their own courtyards. The same is true for this back garden. The Jiangxia Cheng tribe accumulated over hundreds of years, which made them more culturally profound, making every detail in the courtyard look extremely elegant.

Several pairs of swings were still shaking - this was not shaking because of the wind. When Zhao Xing came in just now, he heard the laughter of a woman near the swing. When he made his heavy steps, the laughter disappeared. Judging from the swing of the swing now, people had not walked away, maybe they were hiding in the flowers and peeping.
