the times spent in pretense

61-70

In myths and legends, the ancestors of Dajin and Hawksbill turtles were two pairs of brothers. Because of disagreement, the brothers moved their families, one to the east and the other to the west, and never saw each other again. As their children and grandchildren grew up, the places where they lived grew larger and larger, and they gradually formed two countries.

These two countries have undergone changes in the dynasties, and now they are the Dajin and Hawksbill turtle.

There are two versions of this ancient legend. In the version of Dajin, the brother was suspicious of greed, and finally went to the place where the tortoiseshell was. In the Hawksbill turtle version, the younger brother was weak and incompetent, timid as a rat, and finally this younger brother went to the place where the map of Dajin was located.

Literati in both countries often compile poems to elevate their ancestors and then bury their ancestors. In some folk dramas, this story is often adapted and sung.

However, no matter how secretly the two peoples vilify each other, the tortoiseshell literati have a faint sense of superiority because they feel that they have a higher status in the country and speak more prestige.

These tortoiseshell celebrities, who have long been accustomed to talking about things, have come to Dajin and found that the scholars in Dajin really have no momentum and status.

At the snack stand, the farmer could sit at the same table as the reader. Even in the teahouse and winery, these readers are quiet, and they don't see them get together to make poems and couplets. There is really no such thing as a reader.

After several inquiries, they learned that this tea house was a place loved by literati in Beijing, and the three of them rushed over. Who knows that this tea house is quieter and has more readers than other tea houses.

They are also scholars. They are ashamed of the weakness and mediocrity of the scholars in Dajin. However, this is the realm of Dajin. They don't want to say that the scholars are bad. They can only complain about two sentences.

I don't know if they just said a few words at random. Those readers of Dajin who looked mediocre and bullied unexpectedly clapped the table.

"The mother who gave birth to me is naturally a woman." The elderly man's surname is Liu, a tortoiseshell celebrity. Because he is very famous among scholars, he also serves as the teacher of the tortoiseshell prince.

Liu Mingshi arrogantly bowed to the reader who patted the table: "I don't know what this little brother thinks?"

"I can't talk about it," said the scholar in the blue shirt. "The old man knows that the person who gave you flesh and blood is a woman. Why do you despise women so much in words?"

"It is the nature of a woman to give birth to a heir. What does it have to do with the old saying?" Liu Mingshi said, "Male is yang, female is yin. If a woman does a man's thing, it will be yin and yang upside down, which will lead to chaos in the world sooner or later. ."

"Mr. Doesn't it look like I'm from Dajin?" The blue-shirted scholar asked with a smile, "I don't know which country's Mr. Mr. is?"

"Old and unrelenting, Master Nai Hao Turtle Prince." Liu Mingshi said his identity.

"No wonder, it turned out to be a tortoiseshell." The green shirt scholar smiled more brightly. "My Dajin Erlang is different from your country. I won't become a chaos in the world because of the woman's doing something. I am wise to your majesty and politically clear The people live and work in peace and contentment, and nothing is wrong."

"Women should stay in the rear house to do housework, have children, and show their heads all day long. What is the system?" Liu Mingshi did not expect Qingshan scholars to use such words to choke on people. To be fair, Dajin is indeed more prosperous than tortoiseshell. But no matter what the prosperity is, there is no rule in the country, it makes people feel black and white.
