The Flustering Sound of the Pipa from the Hallway - Chapter 34

Gu Chennian was so cherished, Shen Shiyan knew. He nodded. “Understandable.”

“But I don’t want to read at home. I really want to go abroad.” Gu Chennian was anxious, raised one hand and patted the table. “How can they hinder my life because they are uneasy, I have The right to choose freely! And they don’t accept communication at all. As soon as I say anything, they say, I’m still young, I don’t understand anything, it’s always this way. “

Probably young and curious about the age of everything, probably the most taboo is being said to be a kid who doesn’t understand anything. Shen Shiyan felt that the children now know more about them than they did at that time, because they have more exposure to things and insights, so they have the opportunity to open their eyes and understand things earlier. However, because there are so many things to see, many information is difficult to distinguish between true and false, and it is inevitable that one’s judgment will be biased.

“Why do you want to go out?” Shen Shiyan asked.

This time Gu Chennian didn’t feel so impassioned any more, but he was silent for a while, then bit his lip, and said, “In the beginning, I just wanted to go abroad to see something different.”

This is very true. Many people choose to study abroad because of such a simple original intention.

“But then … Actually, I was disappointed with the domestic environment. I had a young girl, one grade higher than me, and she had a good grade, and she was able to guarantee Tsinghua. But what kind of event was held in their school and there was a girl After winning the first place, Tsinghua was guaranteed by adding points to the general evaluation. “With that said, she became a little excited again, and said with a grimace,” Her grades were not enough to guarantee. It’s just an event that her school is organizing for herself. Is it possible to have a background? It’s not fair! “

After listening to Gu Chennian’s complaint, Meng Xintang suddenly remembered that he had forgotten which book he had read. What adults are most afraid of talking with children, one is fairness, and the other is death. The former is because it is difficult to describe and difficult to guarantee, and the latter is because it is unavoidable and unexpected.

“So, because you feel that the domestic environment is not good, do you want to go out and read?”

Gu Chennian nodded: “Everyone, I think education abroad is better, and I can strive to stay there after going out, the air is good, and there are few people. What do you think, where should I read?”

Shen Shiyan did not answer, but asked Meng Xintang’s opinion.

“The decisive factor is your own thoughts. If you want to go out, go out.” Meng Xintang said first.

“But you need to consider your opinions correctly. You want to change your environment, or you want to receive some kind of education. It is enough to be your reason. Of course, if you are not satisfied with your country, you can. This is you. Life, you have to think for yourself and make the decision you think is right. But you are not yet an adult, so you have to use your reason to convince your parents and come up with solutions to their concerns one by one. If you always There is no way to persuade them, that only shows that you do not have the conditions to go out to study. You can postpone consideration. Many universities have cooperation projects with foreign schools. “

When Gu Chennian left, Shen Shiyan stared at Meng Xintang, but did not speak. Meng Xintang took a sip of wine: “What’s wrong?”

“I was suddenly curious whether you never judged a person’s right or wrong.”

In the words of Chen Nian, only a lot of dissatisfaction with the country was revealed, and it was very one-sided. Shen Shiyan thought that Meng Xintang would mention a little bit when giving his opinions, but did not think that all his words were based on Gu Chennian’s own development, without any personal opinions.

Meng Xintang seemed to be thinking carefully, and after a while he smiled and answered: “It does not violate the law and morals, it does not involve right and wrong, it is just an individual’s choice for the future. Is there any right or wrong?

“People have different pursuits and preferences, and there are no standard answers to questions about life attitudes, life attitudes, and so on. Moreover, I really feel that it is good to go abroad to study and live. As for her Dissatisfaction, I always feel that every age must have the thoughts of each age. The thoughts of teenagers cannot be the same as those of the thirties, let alone use our ideas to assimilate them. Do not rush to tell a child He is immature, and one day he will discover new ideas before he can experience growth. Moreover, how do you know that these dissatisfaction and complaints will not turn into blood or magical creativity one day? “

Shen Shiyan listened, and suddenly felt that if Meng Xintang could be a father, he would be a good father. But his thoughts turned, and he couldn’t help but smile like a student who deliberately made mistakes in the classroom: “But there will be some children, because they see some dark sides of society and become cynical. With emotions that don’t like their country Going out is not a good thing. “

“No, everyone can make their own replacement based on what they see and hear. This is freedom as a” person. “Meng Xintang pushed his glasses.” And I usually think that people who leave the country may be She will be more likely to like her than those who are in it. As long as there is no Datong in the world, the country behind a person is his confidence when walking around. This is the same reason as when a child with a poor family situation was easily bullied. Humanity This thing is similar at the larger level. “

Shen Shiyan looked at the opposite person and said these words calmly, once again affirming her previous cognition-Meng Xintang is tolerant. In other words, even if other people’s thoughts are different from his own, he can understand, he will not arrogantly attribute his thoughts to the right side, let alone attempt to change others with his own thoughts. This is peace. He didn’t know whether this peace was born or acquired, but it was always valuable.

“Meng Xintang,” Shen Shiyan screamed, and then smiled, “You really don’t look like a weapon.”

Meng Xintang laughed: “What should we do with weapons?”

Shen Shiyan meditated for a while and said a few words.

“Hot blood, patriotism, and combative. This is what I thought before.”

“I’m very patriotic, but patriotism is not blind.” Meng Xintang raised a hand with a smile, “Hot blood … I still have it. As for combat, believe me, anyone who engages in weapons is very unwilling to see War, because they need to be more aware of the consequences of war than others. “

In all wars, there will be victory, there will be embezzlement, and there will be the growth of one side. The results of the war are unknown, but the consequences will always be the same-the ruins and the mourning of the four sides.

“Why do we develop weapons?” This is a question that Shen Shiyan has always wanted to ask. He couldn’t understand why such a peaceful person would embark on such a special scientific research path without hesitation.

Meng Xintang looked down and turned the wine glass in his hand.

“Do you know that there was an embassy bombing in 1999?”

Shen Shiyan recalled for a moment, and had an impression. The US side said it was accidentally bombed.

“Since that incident, I haven’t seen my parents for a long time. For the development of weapons, this is a very critical event, because it is a curiosity and a wake-up call. I am an absolute anti-war Activists, but later came to understand that in a world of ambition and desire, there can be peace only if there is restraint. “

The conversation came to an end, but Shen Shiyan was still thinking about it. I wonder if the red wine I just drank was a little bit overwhelming, and the words in Shen Shiyan’s mind became less and less. Gradually, those words that Meng Xintang just said were nowhere to be found. Three words, earned.

Meng Xintang has cleaned up the table, and the dishes and dishes to be washed have been washed. He returned to the front hall, leaned down, and shook Shen Shiyan, who was lying on the table. Shen Shiyan opened her left eye first, then her right eye slowly opened.

“Did you drink too much?” Meng Xintang asked with a smile.
