Mr. Transcendence

Li Zi has a large family, a total of fifteen people, big and small.The old man decided to share the peanut candy and praline with everyone, sweet mouth, and let Li Zi keep the leftover piece.The old man said that it was because he learned Li characters well, and he should keep the other rewards for himself.Afterwards, the old man left Li Zi and asked about Yuan Anping. After hearing Yuan Anping's reasoning, Li Fukang stroked his gray beard and said, "This Anping is not easy, Zier, follow him well in the future, this is Your luck." Li Fukang felt that if this person wanted to be successful, he needed two things, one was talent and the other was luck.Yuan Anping can be appreciated by Mr. Zhang because of his poems, which means that he has both. Success in this world is not the only way to the imperial examination. He firmly believes that Yuan Anping will be very promising in the future, so his grandson is right to follow him.

Li Zi didn't quite understand what his grandfather meant, but he was willing to follow Yuan Anping. After talking to his grandfather, he gave the candy to his grandfather.Seeing his grandson so filial, Li Fukang felt relieved.

Although Yuan Anping didn't know much about the various speculations in the village, he also knew the commotion caused by the carriage entering the village.He knew that it would definitely arouse everyone's curiosity, but he didn't take the initiative to explain what it meant.Although he has been here for some time, he has never had much contact with the people in the village. The original owner seemed to have a temperament that didn't like to contact people, and everyone didn't think he was strange.Now, because he teaches children to read and has the identity of a teacher, everyone has a sense of distance in their hearts. Generally, they don’t come to him for nothing, and there are no people who drop by to chat.He thinks this is very good, and he won't be bothered by all kinds of people coming to his door.

After the children had left, Yuan Anping went out with his things.People who saw Yuan Anping on the road looked at him curiously, but no one came forward to ask what happened.Some people who are enthusiastic and consciously know Yuan Anping well will say hello and ask him where he is going.Yuan Anping would say in a gentle and polite manner: "Go to Grandpa Lizheng to talk about something." Usually, no one would ask him any more questions.I feel that Yuan Anping is a bit different from them. Such a sense of distance makes it difficult for them to get too close.

Lizheng's home is in the middle of the village, and the yard of the three big tile-roofed houses is considered the best in the village.It is said that this is because the four sons of the Lizheng family are very promising and filial.The eldest son of his family is doing business abroad, the second and third sons have errands in the town, and the youngest son is a carpenter and lives in the village, accompanying the old couple.So the Lizheng family is one of the few wealthy families in the village.

Yuan Anping came to the gate of Lizheng's house and saw an old man basking in the sun in the yard, so he called out, "Grandpa Li Zeng."

Li was just hearing someone calling him, but felt that the voice sounded a little strange. He opened his eyes and saw a kid standing at the door, so he smiled and said, "Come in quickly? What do you want from me?"

Yuan Anping entered the courtyard, was looking at him, and asked suspiciously: "You look at the young man, who is the young man?"

Lizheng's wife, Wang Shi, heard the voice and came out of the back room. Seeing that it was Yuan Anping, she quickly smiled and said, "Anping, you are here." A descendant of the Mao family."

Li Zheng took a closer look, "Hey, it really looks like Gen Mao at that time." He pointed to the eaves, "Stop standing, there are stools over there, you can move them over and sit on them."

Yuan Anping handed the things in his hand to Mrs. Wang, "Grandma Zeng, take it."

Seeing the square paper bag in his hand, Mrs. Wang quickly declined, "Why do you still bring things when you come here? It's too weird, isn't it?"

Yuan Anping quickly stuffed the things into Wang's hands, "Grandma Zeng, this is a little wish from me, you must keep it."

Knowing that Yuan Anping wanted to talk to his wife, Mrs. Wang didn't refuse, so she accepted it with a smile.

Seeing that Mrs. Wang took it away, Yuan Anping moved a stool and sat down beside Lizheng.

Li Zhengren is in his 70s, considered a long life here, but he is in good spirits. Seeing Yuan Anping sitting down, he said with a smile, "You are so particular about this trip. Tell me, what do you want from me?"

Yuan Anping smiled and said why he came here, "It's like this. The house I live in now is a bit old and the yard is too small. I plan to re-expand it next year. I don't know whose house is the open space next to my house. The house he lives in now is the old house that the original owner’s father and mother got when they separated. The original owner’s father and mother rebuilt the brick house and then it was vacant. Later, the original owner’s father got sick and had to sell the house for money, so he had to live back. The original house.

Lizheng thought for a while after listening, and said to him: "The place on the west side of your yard in the direction of the mountain is nobody's. If you want to use it, I will grant you a piece of homestead. It just so happens that you are not old enough. When it’s time to get married, I’ll grant you a piece of land, which is calculated as one hundred coins per cent. As for the piece on the east side, it belongs to Zhang Wang’s family. When it was given to him, they thought it was too partial, and because they didn’t have a separate family. It's been idle."

"Zhang Wang's family?" Yuan Anping didn't know him.

Mrs. Wang came out of the house, heard what they said, and saw that Yuan Anping didn't seem to know Zhang Liang, so she said, "Didn't you teach Zhang Weihu how to read? Zhang Wang is his father."

Yuan Anping could talk to the master after hearing her say this, "Then who owns the land behind my house?"

Wang smiled and explained to him: "Isn't your vegetable field behind your house, and it belongs to your family until the two big poplar trees. If you expand it, it will definitely be enough."

Hearing what Wang said, Yuan Anping thought that his vegetable plot was quite big, and he could grow enough food for himself.Then I thought of the vegetable seeds in my own space, and I had a calculation in my heart, and asked, "Grandpa Li Zeng, why don't you grant me a homestead, and let me open an acre of land to the west of my house to grow vegetables?"

Li Zheng shook his head when he heard this, and disagreed: "That is the homestead reserved by our village, and it can only be used to build houses. If you want to open land, you can only open it elsewhere. But you must know that the newly opened wasteland But you have to pay the same tax, and you have to take another sum of land reclamation money. It costs [-] yuan to open an acre of wasteland. The land here is not good, and it is usually low-grade land that is opened. Usually, you have to raise two It takes three or three years to have a better harvest, so this compensation will take two or three years." Because of this, few people open up wasteland.

Yuan Anping thought for a while, he is not short of money, but he is not willing to open up wasteland.He never thought that he was suitable for farming. After all, farming is also a technical job, and his major is not suitable for him.Yuan Anping could only give up: "Then I still want a homestead. Grandpa Li Zeng, do you think I can exchange my own land for Zhang Weihu's homestead?"

Listening to his question, Li Zheng smiled and asked with narrowed eyes: "As far as I know, you only have two pieces of land in total, which one do you plan to exchange?"

Yuan Anping showed a tacit smile, "It must be the medium-sized field, I can't let Zhang Weihu's family suffer."

Li Zheng laughed loudly, "Well, you have a good idea, kid, just come to me and sign when you both agree."

Before Yuan Anping left, Li Zheng said solemnly: "Boy An, you are not bad. You are willing to teach the children in the village how to read. Those children are lucky to meet you. You are very good!"

Yuan Anping said modestly: "You are so ridiculous. I don't know enough, so I can only let them learn some characters."

Lizheng shook his head and said with a serious expression: "Those are enough for them. You not only changed their fate but also changed the fate of their children. They should always remember your kindness." Today, his grandson and great-grandson can have a good future, all because he knelt down and begged his uncle of the same clan to teach him how to read.

Yuan Anping saw that Li Zheng was full of emotions, and here "knowledge changes destiny" is more thoroughly reflected.

Yuan Anping said calmly: "I taught them because they were eager to learn characters. I thought I could easily satisfy their desires, so I taught. I didn't intend to let them remember my feelings." His teaching was originally As a random act, after the other party gave him something, it is even more appropriate to teach them how to read. As for being kind or not, he never thought about it that way.After all, he is a modern person, how many children in that world would be grateful to the teacher for teaching him?I just feel that I have paid the tuition fees, and they should teach themselves.The teaching profession also seems to have become a service profession, and the nobility and gratitude seem to have disappeared long ago.And the so-called teacher for one day and father for life is even more nonsense.

Li Zheng looked at Yuan Anping, "Son, you are a good person, so I say the children in the village are blessed."

Yuan Anping smiled and said nothing.Although he doesn't care whether others remember his goodness, he is still willing to listen to it if he can be praised.
