Chapter 2229: Family members, outsiders


    What is a family member?


    What should the people in the family look like?


    Friendly? Amicable? The kind of person who smiles every day, speaks softly, and no matter what mistakes he makes, he will never get angry and will always speak well, never get angry, never get anxious, never curses or hits others?


    Even green-bodied robots can''t do this, let alone normal people?


    Mrs. Wu can’t do it.


    Mrs. Wu feels that she has cultivated her moral character and has been eating fast and chanting Buddha''s name for a long time, but she still can''t help but sometimes the fire of ignorant karma rises up, and she can''t suppress it.


    The place where Mrs. Wu cultivated her character was not Ganlu Temple. The construction of Ganlu Temple was not started until the first year of Ganlu in the Eastern Wu Dynasty. What does it have to do with Liu Beimu in real history. Ganlu Temple got its name because of the reign name, and at that time Uncle Liu Huang had already hated Baidi City.


    Soochow''s acceptance of Buddhism is slightly higher than that of other regions, so Mrs. Wu''s current Buddhist temple can probably only be regarded as the predecessor of Ganlu Temple. No one knows its specific name, so it is called "Buddhist Temple".


    While you are in a Buddhist temple, your mind is in the mortal world.


    If ordinary people behaved like this, they would have been kicked out long ago. Even if they were not kicked out, they would probably not be welcomed by the religious practitioners in the Buddhist temple. But Mrs. Wu was different. Not only did they not dare to blow away, but they also opened up a small courtyard specifically for Mrs. Wu...


    What?


    There are no female relatives left in the land of Buddhism?


    Who said that? What''s more, can Mrs. Wu be regarded as an ordinary female family member? That''s called a female Bodhisattva!


    Ami tofu.


    Mrs. Wu also talked about Ami Tofu for a long time, but no matter how she recited it, she could not suppress the anger in her heart. She closed her eyes and felt bored for a long time. Finally, she ordered someone to call Sun Quan.


    ?Sun Quan doesn’t want to come.


    No matter ancient or modern, children who have done something wrong do not want to see their parents. Because meeting parents often means admitting mistakes. So most of the time, I hide it when I can, and hide when I can. There is only one situation where I cry and scream for my parents, and that is when I can’t hide it anymore, I can’t hide, and someone comes to my door. I need help from my parents...


    ??Although Sun Quan also ordered Lu Yi and others to suspend their actions after Zhou Yu arrived, Sun Quan still did not feel that he had made any mistakes, or that he knew that he was wrong, but was still unwilling to admit it.


    ? Many people are unwilling to admit mistakes. For ordinary people, even if there is a problem, the impact is not very big. However, once a big person is unwilling to admit his mistakes, it often means that he will continue to make mistakes in the future. At the same time, the price of a mistake is not something one person can bear, and it will affect many people, not only the Sun family, but also the Wu family and many innocent people.


    ??But the person who summoned Sun Quan was no one else, it was Mrs. Wu...


    Therefore, even though Sun Quan was reluctant in his heart, under the order of Mrs. Wu, he had to obey the order and come to pay her respects.


    The purpose of a quiet room is generally to seek tranquility, but in fact, it is often not possible to achieve tranquility. The agarwood burned quietly in Jin Chan''s belly, causing a faint green smoke to linger in the quiet room.


    In the green smoke, Mrs. Wu sat high on the table, glanced at her son, and then slowly closed her eyes.


    你inda , what is the mistake? Mrs. Wu clicked the beads in her hand, her eyes still closed, and she did not look at Sun Quan because she was worried that she would not be able to bear it.


    When Mrs. Wu was young, she was also decisive in killing...


    ?Sun Quan took a look at it and said: "So-and-so should not trust Liaodong gullibly and give money as a gift..."


    Mrs. Wu''s eyelids seemed to move, "That''s not it!" 』


    oh? That''s not it?


    ?So, is the deal between me and Liaodong correct? Sun Quan''s mind immediately began to wander, and then he felt that he had been deceived by Zhang Zhao and others, and began to murmur in his heart.


    ‘Speak! Mrs. Wu didn''t wait for a response for a long time. Finally she couldn''t help opening her eyes and glared at Sun Quan.


    "Uh...this..." Sun Quan hesitated.


    The reason for hesitation is simple: Sun Quan didn''t know what to say.


    ?The reason why he doesn’t know what to say is also very simple, because Sun Quan himself also knows that there are too many mistakes. Which one is better at the moment?


    Just talk about national rituals. "Looking at Sun Quan''s expression, how could Mrs. Wu not understand what Sun Quan was thinking?


    Mrs. Wu closed her eyes again and stopped looking at Sun Quan.


    After all, it fell out of his own belly. How could he not understand Sun Quan’s little thoughts? Sometimes Mrs. Wu would think, if she had known that Sun Quan was like this, if he could have stuffed him back, he might have been stuffed back long ago...


    ‘Uh…Guoyi…’ Sun Quan was still hesitant.


    The reason for hesitation is simple: Sun Quan didn''t know how much to say.


    ??The reason why he doesn''t know how much to say is also very simple, because Sun Quan doesn''t know how much Mrs. Wu knows. If he talks too much, wouldn''t he be asking for trouble?


    ?Different from the image of Sun Quan in later TV and movies, Sun Quan at this point in time was only a young man in his twenties. Of course, according to the current standards of the Han Dynasty, twenty is not too young, but it is obviously not too old, so making Sun Quan become cunning and cunning is obviously not enough for the first word.


    “Just tell me why you want to kill Guoyi...” Mrs. Wu still couldn’t hold back, so she asked directly.


    Mrs. Wu is very familiar with Sun Quan, and similarly, Sun Quan is also familiar with Mrs. Wu, so Sun Quan knows that as long as he delays, Mrs. Wu will eventually take the initiative to say it, but this Mrs. Wu takes the initiative The question raised still shocked Sun Quan.


    "I...didn''t..." Sun Quan subconsciously denied it.


    "Don''t worry, there are no outsiders within a hundred steps..." Mrs. Wu held the prayer beads and clicked them, "If you die... you can''t be resurrected... The key is that you have to know what you are doing... why you are doing it... you are doing it What are the advantages and disadvantages...』


    ‘Children…’ Sun Quan lowered his head, ‘Guoyi…Guoyi has a rebellious intention…’


    “Yeah,” Mrs. Wu nodded, “Sure enough, you did it..."


    ?Sun Quan:『￣□￣｜｜…』


    Mrs. Wu waved her hand and said, "Continue." 』


    For most people, there is a distinction between relative and distance. Although Sun Fu is also named Sun, there are still some differences between Sun Fu and Sun Quan. One is written with a pen and the other is written with his own flesh and blood. of.


    Now that he had said it, Sun Quan did not continue to hide it, "My child... Guo Yi often talked about my child, and often made treasonous remarks, saying that my child... should abdicate and return power to... If he is allowed to speak nonsense, it will inevitably Something happened, so someone imprisoned him in Jiangdong for his crime..."


    Mrs. Wu sighed and said slowly: "Sun Guoyi...Actually, he is not a bad person, he just has a straight temper..."


    Sun Quan lowered his head, "The child also knows...sometimes I sent people to give him hints to make him restrain himself, but..."


    "Oh..." Mrs. Wu thought for a moment, "Who did you send?" 』


    …''…'' by Sun Quan.


    Mrs. Wu shook her head, "You figure it out for yourself...don''t ask me to give you the answer...continue." 』


    After Sun Quan was silent for a moment, he continued, "...when there was chaos in Changsha again, the Zhu family often delayed and disobeyed, regardless of the overall situation...and four families from Jiangdong colluded with big families and refused to accept money and food, so that the battle in Jingzhou failed... so baby…"


    "So you accepted the national rites and blamed the big family in Jiangdong..." Mrs. Wu looked at Sun Quan and said, "Thinking that in this way, you will get rid of the troubles in your heart and you can beat Zhu and others... Yes or no." ? 』


    Sun Quan was silent for a long time and nodded, "Yes." 』


    "snort. Mrs. Wu held the beads and clicked them, "Continue." 』


    ?Sun Quan swallowed his saliva and said, "Huh?" 』


    Mrs. Wu stared at Sun Quan, "What are you talking about?" Is this the end? What’s next? Things have begun, how do they end? How will others react? Why do they have these reactions? How do you respond? What problems will your response cause? How to deal with new problems? What are you talking about? ! 』


    "This... the boy ordered Lu Zhongshu to investigate the "treason" of the big households... Then, then Zhou Gongjin came..." Sun Quan said, "The boy thought, after all, Zhou Gongjin is... so the boy asked Lu Zhongshu to stop..."


    Mrs. Wu took a deep breath, and then resisted the urge to throw the beads in her hand out. She just squeezed them hard and said, "You... think about it for yourself first... Fortunately, I wrote a note for you." …It’s all written in vain…”


    ? Sun Quan was a little confused at first, but after a moment, he suddenly thought of something and raised his head suddenly.


    You just thought of it now? Mrs. Wu sighed, "Can''t you think before you do something?" Think twice before you act, think twice... I don’t just let you think about it three times... But I think you may not even think about it three times..."


    ?Sun Quan: "…"


    Click click click.


    There was another moment of silence.


    『Keep talking! Mrs. Wu couldn''t bear it.


    …Children…finished…” Sun Quan lowered his head.


    Click click click. Mrs. Wu held the prayer beads and said, "Are you finished?" Don’t you think that this matter is over? 』


    Sun Quan is not saying that he doesn’t know what to think and do, but people have some habits that are very ingrained. For example, when children are around their parents, they often don’t think about it. It’s not that children are stupid, but because children Knowing that parents will think about it, the children are lazy...


    Sun Quan was stunned for a moment and said tentatively, "Then let''s continue the investigation..."


    Mrs. Wu finally couldn''t help it and threw the prayer beads in her hand towards Sun Quan, "Check...huh..."


    Mrs. Wu closed her eyes and muttered something in her mouth, which must be some calming Buddhist scriptures or something.


    The beads fell to the ground, the strings were broken, and scattered all over the place.


    This is the second habit of many children.


    ?In fact, Sun Quan may not know what his correct approach should be, but he would instinctively throw out some incorrect answers and let his parents judge...


    Mrs. Wu was angry not because of Sun Quan''s behavior or Sun Quan''s previous mistakes, but because Sun Quan did not really realize his mistakes.


    Failure to recognize mistakes means that mistakes will be made again.


    "I''m too impatient..." Mrs. Wu said slowly, "It''s not good for you..."


    ?Sun Quan kowtowed, "Mother..."


    "You are too impatient..." Mrs. Wu continued, "There is a quiet room next door. You should just be quiet next door today and think about it... go ahead..."


    "This..." Sun Quan hesitated, "But Jiangdong political affairs..."


    "oh? Do you really think that Jiangdong will be in chaos if you are missing for one day? Mrs. Wu said, "Aren''t there Zhou Gongjin and Zhang Zibu?" What are you worried about? 』


    Sun Quan remained silent, muttering in his heart that it was Zhang Zibu and Zhou Gongjin who were getting together now, so he was worried. However, he could not go against Mrs. Wu''s wishes, so he had to lower his head and went to the quiet room next door dejectedly. Stay inside.


    no way.


    Even the Lord of Jiangdong is still the son of Mrs. Wu.


    Whoever owns the territory decides who owns it. In this small courtyard, it is Mrs. Wu’s territory. Naturally, Mrs. Wu has the final say. When it was time to cook the dried meat, the servants brought a vegetarian meal to Mrs. Wu, and then they naturally had to ask. Do you want to give a copy to the owner next door...


    Mrs. Wu originally wanted to starve this guy with a short memory, but in the end she relented and snorted angrily and asked her servants to give Sun Quan a portion according to her eating standards.


    Mrs. Wu is old and her appetite is average, so it is natural to imagine how much food she eats.


    ??But Sun Quan was young, around twenty, and this little bit of food was like stuffing between his teeth. The gaps between his teeth were blocked, but his stomach was still empty. If there was nothing to eat, then I was just hungry, but now I have eaten a little bit, which is almost like nothing. The acid water in my stomach is churning, and I suddenly feel uncomfortable...


    ?Sun Quan and Sun Ce are different. Sun Ce followed Sun Jian. The military wells had not been dug and the military kitchens had not been opened, so everyone was hungry together. This was not some pretentious training camp in later generations, but this was how marching combat was originally done. Sun Quan stayed with Mrs. Wu for a longer period of time. Although the Sun family had not yet become prosperous at that time, eating was still not a problem. And staying up all night half-starved like today can be regarded as a lesson Mrs. Wu taught Sun Quan.


    Early the next morning, before dawn, Mrs. Wu woke up.


    Old people sleep very lightly.


    After washing herself in silence, Mrs. Wu seemed to have changed a string of Buddhist beads, and it seemed that the original string had been strung again. It was still clicking and pulling. She glanced sideways and said, "Go and take a look. Call me when you wake up." come over! 』


    ?Sun Quan came over with bags under his eyes that had not been rested.


    The morning food of the elderly is lighter.


    Porridge, pickles.


    Xilihulu.


    ?Sun Quan finished his meal in two bites, and had no need to add more. Then he could only sit silently, watching Mrs. Wu drink slowly. After about a stick of incense, Mrs. Wu finally finished eating and put down the bowl.


    ?The servants quickly finished cleaning up, then lit the incense, and then tiptoed back.


    Do you understand? Mrs. Wu said slowly, "If you don''t understand, just keep thinking..."


    Sun Quan hurriedly said, "I understand, my child." 』


    ‘Let’s talk about it then…’ Mrs. Wu started to click the beads again.


    Click, click.


    Sun Quan stared at the string of Buddhist beads, was silent for a moment, and said: "Zhou Gongjin was not sure that it was me who did it, but I accidentally missed the bottom..."


    Specifically, what is the error? Mrs. Wu also said like clicking.


    ?Sun Quan nodded, "Today it harms the state, and tomorrow it will harm others. If it is really treason, how can it not be investigated to the end and eradicated?" So easily agreeing to interrupt the investigation... is tantamount to telling Zhou Gongjin that He already knew what was going on..."


    "Huh... I''m not stupid at all..." Mrs. Wu nodded, "That''s right... continue..."


    What happens at home should be done at home. 』


    Sun Quan lowered his head and said.


    Mrs. Wu stopped holding her prayer beads, looked at Sun Quan, and exhaled slowly.


    『What did I tell you last time? Um? Mrs. Wu sighed, "If you can really remember this, Guoyi will not be wronged!" Keep talking..."


    "Order Lu Zhongshu to deal with the death cases of those in prison according to canonical methods..." Sun Quan said slowly, "Since this has been done, this is how the case will be closed." 』


    "Um. continue. Mrs. Wu nodded.


    "Because of his meritorious service in detecting and arresting the thieves, he was promoted to Lu Zhongshu as the school magistrate... He was promoted to Lu Boyan as the Western Cao... Lu Boyan was sent to Yuzhang and Sun Boyang was granted the title of Marquis of Duting..."


    Well, it looks good. 』


    『Zhui Guoyi was a righteous general and was buried with great splendor...』


    "Um. good. 』


    "Front Zhou Gongjin as the Grand Governor, build a water fortress in Chaisang, mobilize elite soldiers from all counties and counties for training...make Zhu Xiumu a participating general, and coordinate the training..."


    Good. 』


    "Confer Zhang Zibu the title of doctor and offer wine as a sacrifice..." Sun Quan continued.


    『Inappropriate! Mrs. Wu objected.


    ?Sun Quan was silent for a moment, "Then the only way is to confer Zhang Huishu as a doctor and offer wine... Tiaoji Zixiu will be a assistant..."


    Well, it’s okay. Mrs. Wu nodded, then waited for a moment, frowned slightly, "Then what?" 』


    ‘Uh, no more…’ Sun Quan looked at Mrs. Wu.


    This is gone? Mrs. Wu wanted to get angry, but she held it back, "We still need to send someone to welcome Guoyi''s wife!" As a brother! 』


    Sun Quan was startled for a moment, then nodded and said, "I understand..."


    Do you really understand? Mrs. Wu asked.


    "Yes...I understand..." Sun Quan prostrated on the ground, "Thank you, mother, for your teaching..."


    "Well..." Mrs. Wu nodded, then took off the string of Buddhist beads from her hand and handed it to Sun Quan, "Take it, if you encounter something in the future, turn it around twice first and think about it before you do it... I''m old Well, I really don’t have to worry about this kind of laborious matter... You have to distinguish between family members and outsiders... If you want me to live a few more years, you should pay more attention..."


    『Mother…』Sun Quan smashed his head to the ground.


    Okay! Get out! Mrs. Wu muttered, "Looking at it makes you angry... Don''t eat too much at once when you go back... You know, eating too fast is harmful to your health... Being too hasty is not beautiful..."
